i swear, potions class feels longer and longer every time i go. i cant wait to leave this class. "turn to page 371" flip, flip, flip. ah yes page 371, alihotsy. "the leaves of the plant can induce hysteria and uncontrollable laughter. i would bring some to class one day but i cannot risk it in the situation that one of you will come in contact with it and i will be forced to hear uncontrollable laughter the entire period." mood. honestly i don't like snape, but sometimes, he's really relatable.

"you may leave now" YES! i quickly pack up my belongings, quickly hug ron good bye, and RUN to the library. why the library, you may ask? well...

"well, well, well, garner." i turn into the last of the rows in between the bookshelves, all the way in the back of the library. "tom, i see you haven't changed." tom and i have a weird relationship. we knew each other before coming to hogwarts but we BARELY talked, and we were never like those besties since childhood that you see in movies. we were just there for eachother but not in that cute way. we haven't talked in at least 6 months. 

"i have a favor to ask." i walk towards him. he stands there, undisturbed. "yes garner?" he says quietly, looking down at me. "did you hear what happened?" he shook his head. "paper- malfoy told everyone we've been seeing each other." "ah yes, malfoy. he's a smart boy, just never makes smart decisions." that's for fucking sure. "well i had this idea, and hear me out." "i think i know where this is going." i laugh. "yeah.." his face hardens. shit. he's gonna say no. "of course." 

YESSS PERFECT. "thank you." i tell him what the plan is and we're ready. 

the next day, we're outside the great hall during lunch and i see him. paper face!  his hands are holding on to the sides of his girl's waist. i still don't know who she is, but i don't want to know. that'll only make me hate her more than i already do. 😁 i see his minions come behind him, and he slaps them both, cursing at them. probably saying to leave cuz he's with his boo thang. this is my chance. tom is standing near them, not too near, but close enough so they have a perfect view of our "performance." heehee. just before dumbass 1 and 2 have a chance to leave, i walk over to tom, making sure malfoys looking, grab his face, and jam my lips onto his.

i know what you're thinking. what the fuck are you doing, kissing tom just to piss off malfoy? and yes. i know. BUT when someone messes with me, i must mess with them harder. you know? fuck up their brain a bit. make em jealous for no reason. plus i didn't mind kissing tom. (and that's all i'm saying about that.)

tom places his hands on my waist, and after a few seconds, i back my head away, my hands still on his face. we both smile, i just know malfoy is gasping for air rn. i wink at tom and walk into the great hall. as i'm walking in, i hear nothing but the surprisingly loud sound of silence. 

it was dead silent.
