Teresa's (Faline's) POV
It's time for the end of year feast. Exams and lessons are over. We leave and go home tomorrow. Home, I wonder how Harry and the others are? I look out at the horizon and sigh. Faline lands on my shoulder and I pat her fondly. "I miss them girl, do you think they miss me?" I ask her.
"I'm sure they do" Tom answers as he sits beside me. "Thinking of the future again?" he asks me.
"Yeah, I'd be graduating now if I was there" I tell him.
"What would your job of been?" he asks me.
"I was going to a healer for wizard pets. From cats and owls, to dragons" I state. "I still wish to do that. I can work from home when I have children and nurse the animals back to health" I tell him smiling.
"Now there's something I've never thought of before" Tom muses.
"What?" I ask him curious.
"Having children, growing up in an orphanage. I've never thought I'd be a good father. But with you, I feel like anything is possible" he says smiling down at me.
"I feel the same way" I state and lean into him. "We should probably be heading to the great hall. Can't miss my house's victory" I tell him smirking.
"We still won the quidditch cup" he reminds me.
"It'll be different next year, my house will win both" I state.
"Keep dreaming, my house will win" he tells me smirking. "Race you to the great hall" he says.
"Sure" I say and let out a bird call.
"What was that?" he asks me confused.
"You'll see or rather you won't" I tell him smirking. I spot the black figure flying out of the forest towards the tower. "Good luck" I say and jump over the railing. I land on the threstarl. "Great hall" I tell it and it flies to the entrance hall. While I hear Tom shouting behind me. I laugh enjoying the wind in my face.
The threstarl lands and I thank it. Then run inside and I sit with Lyall & Billius. Soon Tom appears at the doors panting heavily. 'I win' I mouth smirking.
'You cheated' he mouths back.
'Prove it' I say and turn back to the table.
"What was that about?" the twins ask me.
"Tom and I had a race to the great hall from the Astronomy tower. I won" I tell them smiling.
"How are you not puffed out?" Lyall asks me.
"I flew here" I state smirking. "We never said how to race to the great hall" I add.
"Sly lioness, you sure you're not a snake?" Bilius asks me.
"I'm sure" I tell him laughing. "Now shush, we're about to win the cup" I tell them. Professor Dippet stands up to address the school. Honestly I'm still not used to this head master. I'm used to Professor Dumbledore.
"The end of another year, I understand you all wish to tuck into our glorious feast. So I shall keeps this short. In fourth place Ravenclaw with three hundred and twenty-two points, in third is Hufflepuff with three hundred and thirty-two points. In second place with four hundred and fifty points...." he pauses for suspense. "Slytherin house. That means our winners this year with four and sixty-five points is Gryffindor" he announces.
Us gryffindors roar our approval as he changes the school banners into gyrffindor ones. We quiet down and the feast appears. "Next year we'll win both cups" the twins state.
"I told Tom that, he said dream on because Slytherin will win them both" I tell them.
"No way, not while we're here" they state.
"Then we all do our part next year to ensure our victory" Bilius states.
"Agreed" Lyall and I say. We enjoy our mains and pig out on dessert. My friends from Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff came over to congratulate us on beating Slytherin. But warned us they'll work harder to ensure their house wins next year. I then go sit with Tom and his friends.
"Sorry you guys lost" I tell them.
"We'll win next year" Paul states. "Especially with me as Quidditch captain" he adds.
"Dream on" I tell him smirking. "Anyway Tom, mum says you're welcome to visit over the summer" I add.
"Good, I'll be over practically every day" he tells me smiling. I smile and peck his cheek. He walks me to my common room and kisses me good night. "Oh and are they picking us both up tomorrow?' he asks before he leaves.
"Yep" I state. "See you on the train" I add and kiss him again. He smiles and leaves. I say the password and go inside to see a party going on. We're celebrating our win. I party for an hour before calling it a night.
