Forever Truly Yours [Draco M.]

"ℌ𝔢𝔶, Elyse." The Ravenclaw witch looks up and her heart drops as she smiles at Hermione. "There is Qudditch match today. Hufflepuff versus Gryffindor. Are you going?"

"Uh, yeah. I'm going with Draco. And since I sort of cheered against him last time, I promised I'd go with him." Elyse hums, making Hermione frown slightly, but she shakes her head and the frown is replaced with a smile.

"Cute. Could I ask you boy advice?" She asks, as she sits down, making Elyse nod as she closes her book. Elyse wasn't even sure if she's allowed to be talking to Hermione or if she'd get her and Draco in trouble for this. "So Ron was given Keeper position  on the team. And now he got together with Lavender Brown."

"Wait what? But wasn't there something between the two of you?" Elyse wonders, making Hermione shrug.

"I don't know. It's just, I'm so confused and I don't know what to do." Hermione sighs as she looks at Elyse sadly.

"First of all. He's an idiot. But all boys are. Second of all, unfortunately not much you can do now that he's in a relationship. But I can tell you this, at the moment he's probably trying to avoid his feelings for you. Eventually though, he'll give in. Something will cause him to give into his emotions." Elyse hums, making Hermione smile appreciatively.

"I just... I don't know you and Draco seem perfect. I mean he's not great. But your relationship is so... perfectly defined." Hermione says, making Elyse shrug.

"But to get to this point I nearly got hexed. And we're not perfect. We... we have our difficulties and trials, but the importance is, we overcome it together." Elyse shrugs, making Hermione raise an eyebrow.

"Thank you. By the way, I heard you're going for Headgirl." Hermione says with a smirk, making Elyse squint her eyes at her.

"Granger it's on. I will crush if you if have too." Elyse says, making Hermione shake her head.

"Don't worry. I'm not aiming for it. But everyone knows Dumbledore prefers Gryffindor by far." Hermione reminds Elyse who groans in annoyance.

"He'll make an exception for me." Elyse muses, making Hermione giggle and shake her head. Hermione straightens up making Elyse give her a questioning look.

"Miss Granger. Would you mind giving me some time with Miss Lestrange?" Snape asks, making Elyse stiffen and Hermione nods before leaving. Elyse turns around to face the Professor. "You are aware that such relations aren't allowed as a Death Eater."

"I... I know." Elyse stutters, scared of the consequences that will come.

"Make sure no one else finds out." He says, making Elyse's eyes widen in shock as she was expecting him to get mad at her.

"Could... could I ask you a question, Professor?" Elyse asks, making him nod for her to continue. She takes a deep breath, hoping he won't take the question wrong. "There is no way out is there?"

"No. We have to do this till the end. Wether it's ours or his." Snape replies, before walking away and her heart drops as tears burn her eyes. She shakes her head, not wanting to think about it anymore. She stands up and leaves the table, making sure to take her book with her. Elyse makes her way back towards her room.
