At the banquette, Dumbledore announced the arrival of 'Professor' Umbridge.
As I eat, the guy next to me holds his hand out to he "I'm Blaise Zabini." I smile at him, before shaking his hand "Parkinson, she was obsessed with me in our third year."
I furrow my brow and ask "Are you a pure blood as well?" He gives an unsure shrug.
"I'm either a half blood or a pure blood." He scoffs "My mother has had quite a few husbands."
I scoff, before asking "Was Pansy?" He shrugs again and I declare "Was she as crazy back then as she was last year?"
He nods, before explaining "She saw me making out with a boy, and insisted that I needed to be fix."
I give a confused look "How did you get her off your back?"
He shakes his head "I didn't." He looks me over "She saw you, and decided to move on."
I give a weak smile, before asking "Is it horrid if I ask...?"
He gives a weak smile "You want to know if she assaulted me, as well?" I set my jaw and he gives a soft scoff "It's natural. Don't beat yourself up over it."
As he returns to his food, he clarifies "When something that bad happens, you look for someone who's been there." I give him a curious look and he smiles, kindly "No, she didn't."
I give a weak smile, before continuing with my dinner. As we eat, we make small talk.
I found out that he's a scholar, and his mum has widowed six times.
And about twenty minutes later, he sighs "I'm going to head down to the Slytherin common room. Are you coming, or not?"
I nod, before declaring "I just need to do something, before we go." he gives a short nod and I lead him towards the Gryffindor table.
When I squat down, next to Harry, he smiles "Hey! What are you doing?" Ginny, Hermione, and Ron sit across from Harry. I squat between the twins and Harry.
"I'm heading down to Slytherin, with Blaise." I state and Harry gives a weak smile "What are you doing after this?"
He furrows his brow and declares "We usually have a party on the first night we get back." he smirks "Maybe you can drop by around midnight. I can sneak you in at peak party?"
I smile, before looking to Blaise "Does Slytherin do that?"
He shrugs "Not a Gryffindor party, but definitely a cigar and absinthe, perhaps some whiskey." He scoffs "Usually, everyone is asleep by midnight."
I nod, before looking to Harry "I'll be there. Midnight, sharp." He smiles, before giving me a kiss "Love you."
When I stand, he pulls me down, by the tie, for another kiss, which gathers attention from everyone else in the great hall.
As a owwwing comes from the second years, Harry smirks "Love you, too." I blush, before giving his hand a soft squeeze and releasing him.
Glancing up, I find Umbridge staring at us in such hatred. When I turn to Blaise, he waves to Harry's group, before declaring "I'll help him get to Gryffindor without getting caught by Felch or Misses Norris."
Harry gives a short nod, before smiling "Watch his arse, will you?" Blaise nods, before declaring "You're a good man, Zabini."
Zabini scoffs "I wouldn't go that far." he looks to me and asks "Ready to go, Malfoy?"
I give a short nod, before walking out of the great hall. As we walk through the dark halls, I ask "Do you and Harry have history?"
He gives a weak smile, before explaining "We, uhhh... we met in Diagon Alley, before we started our first year, in a robe shop. I came off as an arse, and was really rude to Ron and Hermione, during our first year."
He continues "During our second year... did Harry tell you about the snake?" I nod and he declares "They thought I was the heir of Slytherin, so they used the poly juice potion to hide as Crabbe and Goyle."
"And what happened?" I ask.
He scoffs "I called them out on it, and then helped Hermione find out it was a basilisk." He scratches his forehead "When we ran into the basilisk, I saw it out of the corner of my eye, told Hermione to run. That I would distract it. We ran into it, and I stared it in the eye. Hermione saw it in the reflection of a hand mirror, when she was trying to escape."
I give a confused look "If you stared it in the eyes, why are you still alive? Don't they kill you?"
He pulls out a pair of reading glasses and declares "My reading glasses were in the way."
I give a weak smile, before he leads us down a pitch black hall. The only light is from dull torches.
He furrows his brow and asks "Do you think Umbridge is here to toss Dumbledore to the side?"
I shrug, before sighing "She's denying Voldemort is back. Even if she knows he's back, she's a bigot." I look to him, knowingly "My father used to consult with her office."
We stop at a large door and he whispers "Dracones sunt magi s serpentibus perierunt."
I give a confused look as he opens the door "It's Latin. Dragons are the wizard's snakes."
I nod, before remarking "I decoded dragons and snakes. That's about it. Latin isn't my best subject."
He sighs "Well, you better brush up." As he holds the door open to me "There's a back way into our dorm, but Latin is all over this school."
I scoff as I look around. Outside the circular windows, is water "Are we below the black lake?"
He gives a short nod, before pouring a couple of whiskey on the rocks. As he offers me one, he asks "Would you like a tour?"
I look over the elegant common room before sipping the smoothest whiskey I've ever tried "Why not?"
