Helena weaved her way through the halls to go outside. She had a free period since Professor Vector was sick and Harry had Divination. She and Hermione sat under the tree by the Black Lake doing their homework when Blaise walked up to them. "Hello Helena, Hermione" the boy greeted, both girls looked up and smiled, gesturing for him to sit. Blaise sat next to Helena, the shy girl blushing at the closeness, "so uh, Helena?" Blaise asked, the girl looked up at him, "um, would you like to accompany me to Hogsmeade tomorrow?" His question caught her off guard as she pointed at herself, "me?" Blaise chuckled and kissed her knuckles, "yes you cara mia" Helena blushed and looked at Hermione, the bushy haired girl nodded and gave a thumbs up. Helena turned shyly to Blaise and nodded, the normally calm and collected Zabini Heir, picked her up and spun her, making her laugh as she kissed his nose.

New travelled fast,everyone who saw Blaise and Helena together, passed it on that they were dating, till it reached Draco's ears. He was absolutely furious when he saw Blaise sitting with the Gryffindors, Helena's head resting on his shoulder as everyone at the table laughed. He pushed Pansy off his lap and made his way to them "Blaise what are you doing?" He asked curtly. The boy turned and adjusted Helena's head, "well I'm sitting with my girlfriend and her friends." He said as if it was quite obvious, Draco fumed "girlfriend, you can't date him Helena" Helena looked up, her eyes tinging with red again, "You don't have the right to say who I can and cannot date Malfoy" she spat as she kissed Blaise on his cheek and pulled Hermione, Ginny and Luna with her out the hall. Harry looked at the pale blonde "Get over it Draco, she's moving on now" and Draco just walked off.

It was a month later and Draco was doing his rounds when he heard someone singing, he walked quietly towards the sound, only to be surprised when he found Helena seated by the ledge, looking up at the moon as she sang

Shotguns and roses
Make a deadly potion
Heartbreak explosions
In reckless motion
Tatty bears and I'm sorry letters
Don't seem to make things better
Don't bury me alive
Sweet talk and alibi

But I-I-I can't stop the rush
And I-I-I can't give you up
Now I-I-I Know you're no good for me
you're no good for me

I fell in love with the Devil
And now I'm in trouble
I fell in love with the Devil
I'm underneath his spell
Someone send me an angel
To lend me a halo
I fell in love with the Devil
Please save me from this hell

Got me playing with fire
Baby hand me the lighter
Taste just like danger
Chaotic anger
But I-I-I can't stop the rush
And I-I-I can't give you up
Now I-I-I Know you're no good for me
you're no good for me

I fell in love with the Devil
And now I'm in trouble
I fell in love with the Devil
I'm underneath his spell
Someone send me an angel
To lend me a halo
I fell in love with the Devil
Please save me from this hell

Angels and devils always
Fight over me
Take me to heaven
Wake me up from this dream
Even in sunlight
You can shine over me
It's now or never
Wake me from this dream

I fell in love with the Devil
And now I'm in trouble
I fell in love with the Devil
I'm underneath his spell

Someone send me an angel
To lend me a halo
I fell in love with the Devil
Please save me from this hell

He'd remembered this song, she'd made him listen to it because she liked the message behind it. What made him surprised was when she sighed "Draco why did you have to be devil I'm still in love with." Before walking off to complete her rounds. He stared at the spot she was sitting at, a month later and she still cared for him. As he sat at the ledge, he thought about what changed, in second year she was all he wanted, she was pretty and smart, and the kindest person he knew. In third year, he had a bit of pressure since he was made seeker, and even though his housemates loved her, they said they're relationship would mess up the game. So he was a bit snappier as usual, and it didn't help that her brother was pushing him off the edge. He remembered how he and Pansy were talking in the common room that night and they kissed. It was purely accidental, but he enjoyed it too much. Then they started sneaking around, during the holidays he went out with her, on the pretext that he was visiting Blaise. The Italian boy didn't even bat an eyelid when Draco said he had stuff to do. Then fourth year, he was required to take her as his date, I mean they were dating, but he thought she looked so mousy compared to Pansy. So he started getting angry, why did he have to be restricted to her, he was Draco Malfoy, he could have who he wanted. All through his rantings she still stuck by him. He thought she'd always be there, she'd be the housewife whereas Pansy was more of his excitement, the perfect mistress, but then he slipped, she caught them and she gave him back the ring. Obviously he'd give it to Pansy, he thought she'd be broken and come grovelling back, but his surprise was that she picked herself up, she took time on her appearance, she was top of every class, ahead of him and even Granger. Then Blaise asked her to be his girlfriend, and his family took her side, they even accepted Blaise, all of them, saying Helena needed to be happy. He hoped, for some reason, that she wasn't wearing his ring.
