hogsmeade day

everyone was excited for their first trip to hogsmeade. while everyone was handing in their permission slips , emerson noticed a disagreement between mcgonagal and harry .
"guess not having parents means you can't go to hogsmeade , ay potta" draco sneered as harry began walking back to the castle , emerson just rolled her eyes at his antics of constantly belittling harry.

once they got to hogsmeade , their group split up , with theo , olivia , and blaise going off by themselves , and draco having to practically pry crabbe and goyla away from him so he could be alone with emerson.

"let's go to honeydukes first , and then meet back up with them at the three broomsticks later on" emerson suggested as they began to walk through the streets.
he nodded agreeing with her plans

"with sirius black on the loose you'd think they wouldn't have us out in the open like this , my father would-" draco started to say in his complaint tone , but emerson cut him off
"there's dementors everywhere drac, we're obviously going to be fine" she said giving him a soft smile . she was one of the only people who could calm him down from his antics.

they walked hand in hand into the shop , eyeing over all the sweets , both having enough coins to buy out the whole lot.
"oh elijah absolutely adored these" emerson said walking over to the stack of pumpkin pasties , a small frown flashing across her face , draco rubbing his thumb over hand reassuringly.
"here come look at these" he said trying to take her mind off her late brother. pulling her over to the assortment of chocolate frogs
"my mother, she used to get me these every birthday" he said smiling over at her, she smiled back at him trying to push the sad thoughts out of her head.
"i know draco , i was there" she said with a small laugh, causing the smile on his face to get wider , he hated seeing her sad.

they picked up their sweets and headed to the lucky cauldron to meet up with their friends and draco's minions.
when they walked in olivia , blaize , and theo were already sat down at a table and they strolled over to them taking their seats. emerson looked around the room taking it all in , not surprised to see girls whispering to each other and starring over at draco. out of spite she kissed his cheek and put their intertwined hands up on the table, which caused some of them to avert their gazes.

"so what all did you guys do" emerson said moving her attention back up to the group and striking up a conversation as they sipped on their butterbeers.

once they got back to hogwarts , they all settled down in the slytherin common room , where crabbe and goyle had finally caught back up to them.
olivia pulled emerson away walking over to the corner of the room where no one could hear them
"i feel like we haven't talked just us in a while" she said smiling up at em
"yea we really haven't , always with the boys" emerson said with a small laugh glancing over at them as they conversed about merlin knows what.
"how are things with you, i know you and malfoy have been pretty rocky lately" olivia said , snapping emerson back looking towards her , her smile fading
"i've known forever that's he's a flirt, but i thought it would stop or at least lessen once we got together. i wonder sometimes if he actually loves me or if he's putting up this facade to keep lucious happy, i mean you know about the arrangement for us to get married in the future, what if that's all it is , and he's just been faking it" emerson said scratching at the palm of her hand with anxiety , she hadn't said her worries out loud to anyone yet and it felt good to get it off her chest. olivia stood there for a second trying to take it all in and think of a proper response.
"i know he does love you em, he shows it in an awfully weird way, but anyone could tell you he does, maybe not pugface but anyone else could" she said rubbing emerson's shoulder in reassurance, both of them letting out a small laugh at the mention of the parkinson girl.

blaise called them back over to end some sort of dispute they were having , so they walked back over taking their normal seats, with emerson having her leg laying over malfoy's and his arm around her shoulders.
"okay , malfoy here claims that sirius black is probably on the grounds" blaise said , catching the girls up on the disagreement
"i doubt he is, why would he go to the place with all these dementors , he'd have to be as daft as crabbe to do that" emerson argued glancing towards malfoy who seemed to sink back into the couch with slight embarrassment
"thank you emerson , anyways , what were you two talking about" blaise said switching his gaze between the two girls.
olivia looked up at emerson , neither knowing what to say.
"oh you know the usual , just catching up" emerson said practically lying through her teeth , which malfoy caught onto pretty easily , fixing his posture on the couch and giving her a side eye as if to tell her he knows she's lying. olivia nodded agreeing with emerson's statement.
