Tumblr media
VI. The shrieking shack
MASTERLIST
Chapter Summary: Christmas Holidays prove to be quite illuminating 
Pairings: Draco Malfoy x Fem!Reader (platonic)
Warnings: Cursing, magical objects, Mugglephobia, classism, charms and curses, might miss some warnings
Wordcount: 3 k
Notes: Anyways… I’ll keep this party going… I’m so excited about the future of this story, and lack of readers is not going to deter me jkajaja “Somos pocos pero buenos”, that’s what I say
Tumblr media
“One last trip to Hogsmeade before the term ends!”, said Pansy, “I’m going to get my parents presents there”
“That’s actually a great idea”, you said with a wide smile, “I’ll get my aunt something there as well, something she can’t find anywhere else”, you said excitedly. There was snow on the ground, so you and Pansy were actually excited to wear your matching hats, scarfs and mittens
You gathered with the rest of the Girls, Mili, Daph and Tray, and you went together, arm in arm, barely letting anyone through your wall of girlies, it was so fun.
You picked presents for your aunt, and some interesting artifacts for yourself, as the girls picked some things for themselves and their loved ones, you also thought about buying something for Draco, but you had never been much creative regarding gifts, so you bought many little things that you’d think he’d enjoy, his favorite sweets from Honeydukes, a couple of pranks from Zonko’s, this year’s figurine album from his favorite quidditch team, and many packages of figurines.
You were happy with your purchases, and you couldn’t wait to go home for the winter break.
School was going great… but… you wanted to go back home to rest, and see your aunt, and just be home for a bit. Classes were tiring 
You were walking back from the town, reaching the crossing that lead to the shrieking shack, when Draco, followed closely by Vince and Greg ran so fast they barely missed
“Wow!”, you exclaimed, “Draco! what is going on!”
He could barely speak, he mumbled something about the shrieking shack and about Weasley and he kept running like the devil was chasing him
You saw odd things everyday at Hogwarts 
. . .
You were watching seven year students playing races on the frozen lake as you had prepared to depart Hogwarts for the Holidays
You wondered what Bubbles did in the winter, when the lake was frozen
Bubbles was the giant squid that lived in the lake, you named him
Did he hibernate? Curious things Squids 
You didn't want to take your whole trunk with you, for that, you had bought a bag, and there you took with you your favorite pieces of clothing, and some personal things, and your gifts. Draco grabbed your shoulder and signaled for you to keep walking to the carriages that were waiting for you.
“Are you going to France for the winter break?”, he asked, and even though you might think that is a good idea, you shook your head
“No, I’m staying here”, you said, as you had exchanged letters with your aunt
“I though your aunt would want to… leave here”, you frowned when you heard him, and you were going to ask him why, but you were interrupted by Pansy and Matthew
“Ready to go?”, she asked excitedly
“Sure”
It was hard to find a moment to talk to Draco where Pansy or Matthew weren’t there, you couldn’t even talk to him about what happened near the shrieking shack, and he wouldn't talk about it in front of others either. You got inside the open carriage, and you were thankful you were wearing your wool hat and scarf.
Umbra hooted in her cage, as she was fuzzy, it was cold out and she was idle for most of the semester, so you opened her cage mid ride in the carriage
“Go home”, you commanded, she seemed happy to be let out, she opened her huge wings and flied away from you
“This year's Christmas ball is going to be magnificent”, Draco muttered, “since last year it was a small affair, this year, we are going all out!”, your friend told the group as you were seated on the train back to King’s Cross station
And you were kind of excited for the Malfoy’s activities, even though you had noticed your aunt pulling out of their invitations
The ride was quicker than you remembered it, and in less than five hours, you were being hugged tightly by your aunt
“Tu m’as manqué, mon amour”, she whispered in your ear
“tu m'as manqué aussi”, you answered back
As you turned to the side, the Malfoys were there, greeting Draco of course, they turned to you
“Cercille… Little one”, Lucius greeted, Narcissa hugged you tightly, “we will see you in the manor soon I hope”
“Yes Lucius”, my aunt answered quickly, placing her hands on your shoulders, “see you in a couple of days, alright? I will this this lady home first”, she said happily
And you left before the other parents, the Notts, or Parkinsons… and all the rest joined in
You found yourself happy to be home as you crossed the threshold, you greeted Jolie, you aunt’s familiar, a beautiful long-haired siamese cat, and kept going down the hall to your room
“Hello mom”, you greeted your mother’s portrait, which was hanging on the wall next to your bedroom door. She smiled and nodded, she was so beautiful, only seventeen when that portrait was painted, she never said anything, she only smiled at you calmly
And over an early dinner, just the two of you, she was filling you in on her last trip to France, and that you may go in the summer 
“We have been invited to the Malfoy’s for the entire Christmas week, and I said yes”, your aunt informed you
“Really?”, since you had remembered your aunt had been attached to the Malfoys, but since you started Hogwarts you had gotten the impression that she wanted to draw a line between both families, but this year… spending the entire week at Malfoy manor… your aunt’s face? something was off, something felt weird, like you were taking a preventive measure or something
You didn’t know anything -yet-, about protective spells, but the ones around the house felt more… thick… more powerful, you didn’t even know how to explain it, but they felt different 
Your aunt was nervous, you could see it, was she concerned?
Has this had to do with… Sirius Black? Because what else? He was the only thing different this year… you remembered from the summer… the way she reacted when she heard he had escaped? he was only a few years older than her… so, maybe they knew each other from school?
How to approach the subject with her?
You told her about everything, about how Defense against the dark arts was finally being what it should be, about how Quidditch was being great, about your friends, about how beautiful Hogsmeade was… all of it, even Pansy and Draco, and how uncomfortable you felt, but you didn’t want to ruin either friendship
The very next day you were getting ready to go to Malfoy Manor, for a fancy dinner, and then to stay there for the rest of the week. 
So when you were already dressed in your more… fancy clothes, to get ready to go to the Malfoys, you went to her room to raid her jewelry box for that floating diamond necklace you liked so much, you catched her putting her earrings on
“Did you know Sirius Black?”, you asked her bluntly, she was so surprised by your question she dropped one, which you easily picked up for her
“Wha- Why…? Why would you ask me that?”, she asked quickly
“Because you have been like this since the summer!”, you said, “and I know you did something to the protections around the house”
“How can you know?”, she asked
“I don’t know, but it feels… strong…”, you said dismissively, “Don’t change the subject”, you demanded, and she thought about it, looking straight into your eyes
“Yes, of course, he is only three years older than me”, she said finally, “so we shared like… four years in Hogwarts, and he had a reputation of course, everyone knew who he was”, she said, turning to the mirror and starting on her makeup, “and of course we all knew his group of friends”, she said, “James Potter, Remus Lupin…”
“My professor against the dark arts?”, you asked
“And another… smaller… pathetic little fellow”, she muttered dismissively, “Can’t remember his name, anyways, everyone knew who they were, they were inseparable”, she kept speaking, “jokers, troublemakers, they were brutally mean to Severus Snape”
“My potions professor?”, you asked
“The abuse was brutal”, she kept it going, “So they weren’t friends with the Slytherins, and after they got out of school, the first wizarding world broke out”, she said more slowly, carefully, “they were some sort of revolutionaries, they were the opposition, it was a shock to everyone what happened, turns out, Sirius black was a spy for Voldemort all that time! He betrayed his friends!”, she told you, scandalized, “and he told "You know who” where they were hiding…”
“Who?”
“The Potters”, she said slowly
“Harry Potter’s parents?”
“Yes”
“Why do they say he is the chosen one?”, you asked her
“That night, when You know who went to their house to murder them… they say he tried to kill Harry too, but failed, the spell seemed to have rebounded, and he was cast away”
“Is he dead?”, you asked him
“No one knows”, she said back
“But why would “You know who” would bother to kill a family of 21 year olds?”, you asked
“It is said it was a prophecy, that a boy born at the end of july would be the one to end the dark lord forever or something like that, prophecies are a dangerous thing…”
“So, Potter was born at the end of July, so he might be the boy who was promised, to end the dark lord, he goes to murder them, tries to, but his curse rebounds and he gets wiped out instead”, you said
“Yes”, she said
“And that is why they call him “the boy who lived”?”
“Indeed”, she said
“And Sirius black wants to kill Potter…. why?”, she seemed to think about it, really think about it
“I’m not sure, maybe he wants his old job back”, she said dismissively 
“But “you know who” is gone!”, you muttered
“He might return”, she said, very seriously 
“So why are you so nervous about Black?”, you had never heard your aunt take any side on the first wizarding world, and she was in the thick of it, being friends with the followers of the dark wizard, but you had never heard her speak in his favor, or against him
She looked at you through the mirror
“It's just, it brings back a lot of memories”, she said, “I want us to be safe”, she muttered
“But why would he come here? if that’s what you fear?”, you insisted
“I’m just guessing, that… with everybody looking for him, you know? Is not that crazy to think… he would look for someone… familiar, to help him”, you stared at her… there was something else… something more, and then you giggled
“You just said he was no friend of Slytherin…”, you gasped, scandalized, “DID YOU FANCY HIM IN SCHOOL?”, you teased, and she blushed scandalously
“NO!”, she said
“YOU DID!”, You teased back, “I mean, I don’t blame you, you didn’t know it back then, were you his friend in school?”, you asked her
“NO I WASN’T!”, she said quickly, with a comical face
It was fun to tease her
. . .
“Stop it!”, she snapped, as you were looking up at her and only smiling, as you were in the front of Malfoy Manor
“You know, without all the crazy, I can see the appeal”, you teased
“Enough”, she said with a playful smile
You were received by their house elf, and led to the dining room. You were embarrassed to admit that you were late, your line of questions had made it so.
The table was set, and you were not the only ones attending the meal
Matthew was there, in the company of a young man, there was also Theo, accompanied by his father, Gregory with his mother, Vincent by his parents, you were the only girl, at least of your classmates.
“Please sit”, signaled Lucius, they were barely on the appetizers, so that was good
“Sorry for the delay”, she said apologetically, taking your seats right next to the Malfoy family
“It was my fault”, you murmured
“Its of no consequence”, you could see the familiar longing in Narcissa’s face when she patted the seat next to her for you to occupy, she was always so kind to you, so tender, and you appreciated it, she was like your second mom
“For those who don’t know, this is Cercille Basilik, accompanied by her niece, my goddaughter, (y/n) Basilik”, presented Lucius
“Daughter of the mythical… Guillaume Basilik” muttered the man seated next to Matthew
“That’s the one”, your aunt said uncomfortably 
“What brings you here? so far from your Father's empire?”, he asked next, your aunt was having such an interesting day with all those questions
“Well…”, she started, it was a complicated story, “My mother’s family was from Britain, and when my parents decided to separate, she brought us here to live”, she tried to explain it as easily as she could, of course it was severely more complicated than that
“I didn’t know Guillaume had a son…”, and he then looked at you, he was a very handsome man, with sharp features, piercing green eyes. Of course, since you carried your aunt’s last name, he would have thought you were the daughter of a “son”
“He doesn’t”, she said, starting to get angry
“So she must be Aminthe’s daughter”, he said now looking at you, you felt all the looks of the table on you, you didn’t like it at all
“Yes”, you said firmly
“Narcissa, this soup is just to die for”, commented Vince’s mother, and you all quickly changed the subject
Who was that guy? uncle Lucius didn’t even introduce him.
It was an uncomfortable dinner, to say the least
That very night, you snuck into your aunt’s room
“What are you doing darling?”, she asked
“Couldn’t sleep”, you whispered
“Come here”, she invited you to join her, and you did 
“Why did you decide to accept their invitation?”, you asked, she cuddled you near her, kissing the top of your head
“Do you trust me?”, she asked, you nodded, “you’ll just have to know, this was the best thing”, she said
“There is not going to be a Yule Log, or our pajama morning”, you whined
“Don’t be a brat now, we can have those things next year”, she said simply
The Christmass ball, a few days later, was, as promised, exquisite.
Narcissa decided to go for more of a classic look this year, so mistletoe arrangements were hanging from the ceiling and between the chandeliers, with beautiful red fruits, and everywhere you could see there was green, crimson red and gold
You wore a shimmering red dress, matching with your aunt
“Like the blood I now shed”, you had say making her laugh
You were wearing matching mistletoe crows, like you used to do when you spend Christmas together at home. 
As you were now thirteen, you were made to… “participate” more of the ball, you were forced to be there, mingle, and even dance 
Dances were pretty natural for you, but you were always allowed to, “excuse yourself”
You looked at your aunt, and she was being questioned again by that mysterious man, she looked incredibly uncomfortable
“He is my uncle”, Matthew was by your side in a second, “Morfin Gaunt”
“Is he?”, you asked
“My tutor, legal guardian”, he completed, and you were thankful, that after three years, you finally knew something about Matthew’s family
“What happened to your parents?”, you asked bluntly
“They died”, he said simply, “what happened to your dad?”
“I don’t know who he is, nobody can or will tell me”, you said
“Hum, curious thing, I bet anybody in this room filled with people knows who he is”
“Are you suggesting I just start randomly asking?”, you said back
“How else are you going to know?”
“My aunt told me she was going to tell me when I’m ready, and I believe her”, you said defensively
“Maybe he was one of the Dark Lord’s faithful servants, and he is in Azkaban”, he teased
“Wouldn’t that be something”, you mumbled under your breath
“Want to dance?”, he asked bluntly. You looked at the dancefloor and Draco was dancing with Pansy very comfortably 
“No, not really”, you whispered, you looked back and gasped when Theo’s father invited your aunt to dance.
He was very handsome, now you understand where Theo got it from, he had deep blue eyes, and chestnut colored hair a bit faded because of age, but his face even though it looked severe, it was still sharp. He was a real silver fox
“You seemed uncomfortable of my uncle’s line of questioning”, he kept going
“Well, with the people we surround ourselves with… one would think they wouldn’t take kindly to an illegitimate daughter, am I correct?”
“I’m an illegitimate son��, he said dismissively, “nobody asks many questions”
“I guess not”, you said, deflated
“Trelawney said you were going to know your other half…”, he said, “perhaps you are near to discover who he is…”
“I might”, you said
Were you right in waiting? Why would they keep this information from you? You were certain the Malfoys knew who your father was
He must have done something… maybe something terrible? was he a murderer? You grew up with this… but now… the uncertainty was pulling from your chest, a need to know was growing strongly and steadily inside of you.
Why would they keep it a secret?
You knew your parents had you very young, almost in school… So maybe… his family disapproved? maybe they disowned him, casted him away, maybe they were awful, and your aunt didn’t want you to meet them until you were indeed ready, what other reason could there be? 
But still, you wanted to know so badly.

I'm fired up with HotD again
I want unhinged Targaryen Princess... and I've been thinking about this A LOT...
At first it was going to be a love triangle with Jace and Aemond. Aegon (Viserys and Daemon's baby brother) survived infancy and grew up to have a child of his own (reader), she will be half Reyne/Lannister half Targaryen.
The thing is... Aegon had always loved Alicent
So... chaos ensues when reader mom dies, her father always int he capital as hand of the King... when she comes to court she realizes.... I don't want to spoil anything...
But let's just say the civil war would be between The Lannisters and Hightowers...
I really want to write an unhinged reader... thinkking about what I would have done if I was Rhaenyra...
I just want a Danearys sort of character, and the reason to burn shit up...
Anyways... what do you think?

Next HotD fic?
I'm thinking about writing a huge what if... that it would be like
What would have happened if Viserys had THE BALLS of looking at Rhaenyra in the face and tell her, "I love you with all my heart, but you know? the throne is a curse, I don't want that for you, I want you to live your life happily in Dragonstone, and how you want to live it, I will make Aegon my heir"
And she would be like
"Alright! fiuffff! I finally can ride my dragon wherever I want to and eat only cake (and my uncle jiji)", so she starts her life in Dragonstone, chilling with her Strong/Velaryon kids, and her new ones with Daemon, and reader would be like... Viserys and Daemon's niece, and they all live like... CRAZY HAPPY in dragonstone, with their whole litter, and a healthy, fun court that love the princess haenyra, the realm's delight
But when Viserys (who they visited regularly) finally dies... the greens are just... envious of the blacks family dynamic, because they suck and are just jealous and angry, because after all, the throne is some sort of curse so... they see this funcional family having all the benefits and only the good times and none of the responsabilities
HAHA but the thing Is, that I can't think pf a main "problem" and resolution and ending or what I could get out of it, so its werid looking in my mind right now

Tumblr media
“Cregan! Jace! Look who we run into!”, you said excitedly into the back camera of your phone. Jace and Cregan’s mouth opened widely when they saw who you were with
“Hello, I’m Oberyn Martell and this is for these lovely ladies’ boyfriends, Jace and Cregan!”, the charismatic man said, waving at the camera
Then you and Sara show up in screen, Oberyn grabbed you both under each arm and kissed your cheeks
“You are lucky men!”, he teased. You show up giddy and giggly, hugging onto Oberyn martell
The boys’ smile wiped out immediately, sharing concerned looks
“Is Oberyn going to… fuck our girlfriends?”, asked Jace, with a traumatised look on his face
“No! No”, muttered Cregan looking at the road ahead, “I don’t think….”, they both looked ahead wide-eyed and mouth agape…“Well…”
“He is going to fuck our girlfriends isn’t he?”, asked Jace
“Alright search where is the nearest airport and how much is going to cost us the next plane ticket to the fucking watergardens…”
“We can’t leave the car in here dude!”, muttered Jace, typing on his phone, “besides is going to cost us like a thousand golden dragons and 12 hours with three different connections, by the time we get there…”
“You are right, is crazy….”, they spend the next minutes in silence, just looking at the road, “Look…”, started Cregan grabbing onto the wheel, “...he is Oberyn Martell alright? I don’t know if the girls choose to… do… him… but… if they did… I mean…”, Jace nodded nervously
“Yes we couldn’t blame them, I mean, if I encountered him, and he invited me to his hotel room, I’d go too”, Cregan nodded enthusiastically
“Yeah, right? Mee too, and I wouldn’t like my beautiful girlfriend to be mad, because… he is Oberyn Martell, right? everyone’s favourite actor/philanthropist/playboy/martial arts specialist/tv personality”
“Yeah so if they decided to… go back to his room with him…”
“We shouldn’t be mad”, said Cregan
“Right, right, if anything… we are jealous”
“Right!”, said Cregan, and they both went back to stare at the road ahead 
Cregan wished he had gone with you instead of having all those boring family reunions, specially with Robb being so mean, he was forced to hang out in the kid’s table, it was a bit embarrassing, considering he was twenty
But that was done, and now, Jace and him where on his car, on their way down the routes of the North, their plan was to explore some cities as they made their way towards Harrenhal, give the girls time to join them when they finish in the Watergardens 
But Cregan was so happy to receive all those exciting texts from Sara, she was having the time of her life thanks to you, and those texts from you to… made him blush as he was looking straight ahead
He wasn’t worried about you and Oberyn, not at all, but he did wish he was with you right now, having met him and together in the sun… summer… made him so horny, he didn’t even know why.
“We should be arriving in Castle Cerwin in a couple of hours”, offered Jace with a smile 
Castle Cerwin was a cool town but not where the boys would like to be 
But this is the decision they had made so it's the one they were sticking to, besides they were meeting some of Cregan’s friends so it was going to be a fun night in the town with all boys
Then…. Like five other towns in their way to The God’s Eye
But meanwhile
“Should I feel bad that you didn’t bring your boyfriend for me to meet?”, asked Your Godmother over her Chanel sunglasses
As Sara enjoyed the pool over an inflatable flamingo, your godmother started the third degree on you.
“No”, you said shakily, “It’s nothing like that, it's just, he had things to do with his family”
“How serious is this?”, she asked, not convinced 
“I think pretty serious”, you whispered as you sunbathed by her side
“It’s a bit soon, don’t you think?”, she asked, concerned
“We thought things through”, you reassured her, “we are taking things slow”
“Are you?”, she asked, well, not really
“My therapist says he is been good for me”, you said, that seemed to content her
“And when can I meet him?”, she asked
“After this, we are all going to the God’s Eye”, you offered with an apologetic smile
“Alright, maybe next season”, she muttered, you only laughed
“It would mean a lot to me if you met him”, you said with a soft smile
“I can’t wait, my love”, she answered, “from what you have told me, he seems like a great guy, and if he is half as nice as his sister… I’m sure he is the right one for you”
“Well, is too soon to speak about forever, but that is how it feels like right now”, you whispered with a silly smile, and you found your Godmother smiling back at you
“I’m so glad you finally found someone who can… well… a decent man”, she finished, you giggled
“After this we are going to Daemon’s house, in the Island of faces”
“I’ve heard”, she teased, “without any adult supervision?”, you giggled
“No… I don’t think so…”
“Take care, alright?”, she asked, “please?”
“Of course”, you whispered 
“And tell that little Cregan that if he doesn’t take care of you… I can pay someone to take care of him…”
“Godmother!”, you chided playfully
“I’m just teasing…”, she said sipping her cocktail
You spend the rest of the day in the pool, and by the end, you had an early dinner, and started sipping cocktails with Sara. Your godmother left you, and you both were alone to go to the club that was inside the resort.
You didn’t felt particularly in a party mode, and even though you were with Sara and you were having the best of times, you missed Cregan and Jace, there is some things that you’d rather do with them, like going out to a club, but you were determined to have a great time only with Sara.
The boys haden’t answered much, and you understood, they were driving, you really wished they would let you know when they arrived at their destination, but you didn't want to be pushy… or even come out as controlling
Maybe they were at a spot where they didn’t have a signal… those thick woods around the roads in the North were tricky, you really didn���t want to be concerned… it was a bit frustrating… not knowing what to say or do in this situations
You cared for Cregan and you wanted to talk to him, make sure he is good and having a good time
They barely answered to your video of Obryn Martell when you encountered him
IT WAS OBERYN MARTELL! He was everyone’s favourite actor/philanthropist/playboy/martial arts specialist/tv personality, and they barely answered!
You had to take a long breath
They were driving, haven’t even made it to Castle Cerwyn yet, probably
Your phone “dinged”, it was a text from Cregan
Just arrived at castle Cerwin to Ben’s house, everything is fine, ttyl
“That’s it?”, you asked Sara, as she was applying her lipstick, she read the text and raised an eyebrow
“Well, at least they are fine”, she said dismissively
“Nothing from Jace?”, you asked her
“I’m sure they are fine! Just tired! They had been driving all day”, she said mindlessly, and you wanted to be alright with them… lack of communication
You weren’t stuck to your phone all day either, right?
I’d love to “see” you later, videochat?
You typed, but you erased it before you hit send, you didn’t really want to be clingy.
You look at the mirror for the last time, you were looking fine, so was Sara, with simply dresses, hair loose, simple makeup, comfortable shoes
You had no expectation of the night whatsoever, only to have some Dornesy cocktails and have a real girls talk with your friend
You decided to go to a club a couple of hotels over, they say it was the most fun, you took a hotel van to the place, a method of transportation that was not going to be available later at night
The place was nice, over the beach, a nice looking bar, it was already night, so everything was lit up, outside with torches and other “tiki” looking decorations
You ordered a round of fruit-based drinks and you couldn’t stop chatting about everything you had seen and do for the last couple of days.
Sara had never travelled out of Winterfell before and she was looking at everything with wonder, it was actually refreshing, more so since you haven't been to the Watergardens before either, so it was all new to you too.
The people were nice, and very good looking, the sights were amazing, the Watergardens were some sort of an oasis in the middle of a desert, they were breathtaking 
You were having the time of your life, with your godmother and your friend, and yet… you were missing someone, and you spent all day wondering what would it be like if Cregan was here with you, and Jace as well.
It was such a romantic place! 
Even though you weren’t sure how comfortable you would be around Cregan wearing a bikini, but at the same time… you felt so… warm… just by thinking about it
You couldn’t wait to meet them in the lake, it was going to be such a great time! 
Both your phones “dinged” at the same time, and you grabbed them together, it was a notification of a publication of Cregan and Jace, together.
You found it odd, but went to the publication
And paled
Your boyfriends had encountered the one and only…
“IS THAT…?”, You asked
“Margaery Tyrell”, muttered Sara, looking wide-eyed the photo they posted
“Impossible!”
“Well she was on a national tour!”
“Oh for the gods”
She wasn’t alone, she was with her best friend and also a singer… Jeyne Westerling
One for each
They seemed pretty cosy, judging by the background, they were in some restaurant
“Do they think they didn’t take it well that we met Oberyn Martell?”, she asked fearfully, you didn’t know what to think, what to do
Why didn’t he text you personally?
Why did he have to post it? Well, it was a collab with a friend, a friend posted it, but tagged them so, it wasn’t them, they were probably too busy just… chatting it up with two of the most gorgeous and talented women in the entire continent
“Oh gods”, Sara sighed, “should we call them?”, she asked
“No”, you said firmly, sipping on your cocktail, “we shouldn’t bother them”
“You don’t think they'll have dinner and party together, right?”, she asked fearfully
“No, no I don’t think so”, but when you better thought about it. They were two handsome, hunky, smart, kind, amazing young men and… They would be the biggest idiots if they wouldn’t
“I see concern in your face, should we be concerned?”, she asked, and then you shook your head
“They weren’t concerned about us and Oberyn, right? They are the boys!”, you said as it was obvious, “Cregan and Jace! Not any other!”, you said simply, “we took the video with Oberyn, and sent them a greeting because we knew they were fans as everyone else is, for the record, they did the same! I mean… if they saw Margaery and Jeyne and didn’t take pictures with them like… they are idiots!”, and now you were rambling
“You are rambling”, she said
You looked at your phone as if you could call Cregan with your mind, but it wasn’t working, they didn’t call you, they didn’t ask Margaery to send you a greeting.
Gods
It would be so much better if you could call him, call them, and talk, and hear how much they miss you, as much as you missed them.
“Let’s talk about something else”, Sara offered, ”they are not torturing us all day, we shouldn’t torture them”
“Yes! Yes”, you said simply, and you started talking about the plans for the remaining days.
But something was bugging you, in the back of your mind
It was probably the lack of texting from your boyfriend and best friend 
And the very possibility they could be partying with the most perfect and famous person you had ever seen.
 You both tried to keep your mind off of things, the place started to get crowded, and you lost your table as it was clear to set up a dance floor and now you were talking at the bar, snacking on Lys fries and still sipping on a new cocktail
Oh if you only notices how far you had moved from your cellphones in the bar
It had been a couple of hours, you had shooed away a couple of guys who were a little bit straightforward
“Want to dance?”, you asked her, and she nodded enthusiastically 
“Yes! Let’s do it!”, you looked for your belonging in the bar… and nothing
“Where are our phones?”, you asked, searching frantically
“They were right here!”, she said, as scared as you were
“Dammit!”
You looked everywhere, asked all the bartenders, but nothing, someone took your phones
“We should go back to the hotel”, you said, the night a bit spoiled, you weren’t concerned, they were locked, and unlocking your phone and Sara's was impossible because of the making of the phone itself, but still…
“Yes, before it's too late to get a cab”, she muttered 
. . .
“I can’t believe we met Margaery, she was so nice”, muttered Jace with a dreamlike expression on his face
“Yeah, who would have thought? Of all restaurant in the the city, that would have walked in the same one”, said Cregan
“The girls seemed oddly quiet though”, said Jace
“I didn’t send them the pic yet”, said Cregan
“Wait… Ben uploaded something”, said Jace, looking into his socials, “and Sara saw it”
“You have no more messages from her? I have nothing from (y/n)”, Spoke Cregan, now concern
“They wanted to talk but it was when we were in the HIghway entering the city and… it was messy, and we had started fighting!”, muttered Jace
“And then we barely texted them when we were greeting Ben and his ten siblings and his parents!”. Said Cregan
“We told them we couldn’t talk and then Ben uploaded a photo with Margaery Tyrell”
They shared concerned looks
“Are there any chances that they are angry… very angry… possibly contemplating calling back Oberyn Martell because they think we…”
“Yep”, answered Jace quickly
“Oh for the Gods!”, Cregan moaned, rubbing his face, “they hate us!”
“Nah, come on, they are… rational people… right?”, whined Jace, “they are not… criminally insane and go on a guy-kissing rampage only because we didn’t answer a text”
“You are right”, he said simply, “yes you are right, they are probably already in bed, and tired, you know, sunbathing is tiring, the sand like… steals your energy away, right?”
“Right! Right! Right!”
“Are you freaking out?”, asked Cregan
“No no, if anything we should be angry, they are not answering our texts… they are being childish!”
“Right!”
“Right, yes, because, what? They believe we stood a chance against Margaery and Jeyne? Like they would be remotely interested in us…?”, 
“Well… they did ask us where we were staying”, said Cregan between greeted teeth
“We are so screwed”, muttered Jace, “we didn’t even tell them, meaning… they at least made Oberyn send us a greeting… right?”
“Oh gods”
“They must be so angry Cregan, I don’t want to lose Sara! I love her”
“I don’t want to loose my girl either, I love her too…”, and then, at that fundamental moment, they stopped their neurosis to look at each other
“YOU LOVE HER!?”, asked at the same time
“And we didn’t even got to tell them!”, said Cregan
“Gods”
“They must be so angry right now…”
“We will fix it, alright? Nothing happened!”, Jace tried to assure himself 
. . . 
“My feet hurt!”, whined Sara, and you were thinking the same thing, you were probably bleeding inside your high heel sandals
You couldn’t find a cab, of course, so you were walking back to the hotel
“Mine too”
“I want to sleep in that magnificent bed, I want to talk to my boyfriend”, she whined
“Me too”, you agreed
“Do you have your tablet? From there we can let them know our phones got stolen”
“Yes, and we need to get new ones in the morning”, you muttered, whining about your aching feet, “shouldn’t have we gotten there by now?”, you asked, looking around
“Yes, actually, the ride there was straight down the road, and then left..”, muttered Sara, “so naturally…”
“No, no it wasn't left, it was right, the side of the beach was the right”, you said
“Yes but remember the roundabout of the hotel? Makes you think that you are on the right, but it’s actually left”
‘I don’t understand”, you muttered, you looked around, and nothing looked similar, “no…”
“What?”, she asked
“We have been walking the wrong way!”, you whined
“Noooo!”
“YES!” 
“DANG ITTTTT”
You were turning around, to go the other way, but suddenly… the most majestic sports car turned around the curb, and stopped right by your side
You couldn’t believe your eyes, it was actually Oberyn!
“Can’t believe my eyes! The northerner girls!”, he said, he wasn’t alone, he was accompanied by a gorgeous woman
“Hello Oberyn”, Sara greeted with the greatest smiled
“What are you doing here alone? Shouldn’t you be partying? Taking advantage of this beautiful city and its night life?”
“Yes we were but our phones got stolen, we couldn’t order a cab to go back to our hotel”, you said with a shy smile
“Say no more, get in”, he invited, the woman just looked at you and smiled… not kindly, but… it was nice nonetheless
You were going to say now, but if you took two more steps on those ridiculous shoes you decided to wear, you were going to cry
You shared looks with Sara and got in
“This is Ellaria… my wife”, he introduced
“WHAT!?”, you both asked at the same time, both relaxed and happy
“Nobody knows you have a wife!”, said Sara
“I know!”, he said with a big smile, she looked back at you both
“So, these are the girls you talked to me about, asking you to send a video to their boyfriends”, said for the first time Ellaria, she had this seductive, smooth voice, with the characteristic Dornish accent, and you couldn’t get over how beautiful she was
 “Yeah! exactly, where did you say they are? Why aren’t they here with you!?”, he asked, almost scandalised, and he turned on his sports car and you started sliding through the streets of the Seaside resort of Sunspear… The Watergardens, “you know they do call this city… the city of love”, he giggled 
“They wanted to do a roadtrip of the North, we are going to meet in the God’s Eye”, you said softly
“Oh, Riverland, nice”, he said, “I heard there is a festival there at the middle of summer, it was quite the event”
“Really?”, you asked
“Oh yeah, it was quite fun, the Lake Party, but it’s been a bore for the last couple of years”, contributed Ellaria
“Yeah, maybe we should go”, said Oberyn, Ellaria smiled
“Maybe we should”, she teased, “we can make it matter again”, they shared this significant look, like there was nothing else in this world but them, they were so in love, you could tell, they were both beautiful. It was barely a second, he was driving, but still…
You felt joy when you watched them, but… not envy or nothing like that, you…
Were watching what is what like to be with Cregan
Oh how you loved him
Wait… WHAT!?
“Here you are ladies”, he said happily, pulling the car to the hotel’s entry, it was of no surprise he knew which hotel it was, you had met at the club this morning
“Thank you so much Oberyn!”, Sara said
How could this happen? you were with one of the greatest stars of the century, and you only cared about Cregan, and how much you wished he was there with you.
“Let’s take a picture for the socials”, said Ellaria, taking a selfie with you both on the back seat and Oberyn and Ellaria smiling, “I’ll upload it, what are your users?”, she asked
You gave them your social media data, you couldn’t believe this was happening
“Thank you so much, both of you, thank you!”, you said with a grateful smile, “It would be so amazing if we meet again in the Lake!”
“So we can finally meet this boyfriends of yours”
“There must be something in the air, they met Margaery today, and Jeyne”, Sara told them, they shared concerned looks
“Really?”, and then they both looked back at you
“What?”, asked Sara
“Nothing, i’m sure it went well”, said Oberyn
“Oh come on!”, you said to him, “now i’m concerned”
“No!”, said Ellaria, sharing looks and kept repeating like a mantra, “no no no no”
“Ok you look for the picture… is under @BenTallheart999”, you commanded, she looked it up, his account was public, and saw the picture
“Oh, they are delicious!”, she adored
“Hey!”, teased Oberyn, with a big goofy smile, “You know what? let’s discuss this in the bar”
He was so chaotic and funny, you actually went to the hotel bar, you ordered drinks and snacks, and you spent two hours talking about Cregan, and Jace, and their relationship, they were actually giving you advice.
“I think you both need to downplay it, making them wait, and always be on guard”, said Ellaria, “that is how I caught this one!”, she teased pointing at Oberyn
“NOT TRUE!”, he said, “and no!”, he said pointing at you in warning, “it’s clear that these boys feel the same, jump all in!”
“NO!”, fought Ellaria, “you don’t want to give them the power”
“What if… now that we are not answering… they actually go somewhere with that pair of international stars!”, Sara said, concerned
“They will not!”, said Oberyn
“But we have barely talked since we parted ways!”, you said
“Because they are on a road trip! And you are in the pool or beach all day”, he tried to reason, “they understand, you understand, right?”
It was such a chaotic and wild night, you will definitely remember it
You went back to your room, your godmother probably asleep, in her own suit
You almost threw yourself on top of your tablet, and logged into your account
Messages started pouring in, and hundreds of requests to being followed since, of course, OBERYN MARTELL HAD TAGGED YOU ON A PHOTO
And you had several messages of Cregan
Hey love, are you alright?
Haven’t heard from you in a while”
Is everything alright?
I don’t want to sound… or actually… seen controlling but, we are getting a bit worried
Maybe you are sleeping
I miss you
The last text reached you like twenty minutes ago, so you texted back quickly
Cregan! I never meant to worry you, Sara and I went for a drink in a nearby club, and our phones got stolen!
We are back in the hotel
You won’t believe who brought us back!
Oberyn Martell again! AND HIS WIFE, it was bananas
Are you guys alright?
“Give me!”, demanded Sara, and you gave her the tablet, and she logged in her own account
“A couple of  concerned messages from Jace”, she muttered
I swear nothing happened with Margaery, or Jeyne, they were great, but nothing happened
Are you angry?
Please don’t be…
I miss you terribly
Please give us a sign that you are alright
“We need to talk to them”, you said
But for tonight? You went to sleep, you were so, so tired
The very next morning, over orange juice, and a big breakfast… you both decided to call Cregan and Jace
“Hey loves!”, as soon as you saw them, you felt relieved.
“Hey girls!”
“We miss you!”, said Jace
You were placed next to Sara, and you couldn’t wait to tell them everything that had happened over the last days, they had been so chaotic
“Our phones got stolen last night!”, you said quickly
It was all fine, and you couldn’t believe you ever doubted them, they were Jace and Cregan, your boys! You only needed to talk to them, Oberyn was right…
It was all good
So… it was so good, you spent the next few days enjoying the pool, the beach, your godmother, eating in the most delicious restaurants, and having the time of your life, taking a long breath of fresh air… 
Recharging your batteries after life-altering decisions you had made this year… and especially… to make you think about what you wanted, and where you wanted to go… 
And who you wanted to go with you
Cregan
Sara
Jace
Your Godmother, the most important people in your life, and this trip helped you realise that, you were so, extremely happy
You wanted to enjoy those days with your godmother, she invited you here, she wanted to see you, it was mean of you to want to leave because Cregan wasn’t here, so… you were here now, and you enjoyed it to the last second.
Sara, who had never been outside of the North, was seeing everything for the first time and it was so refreshing! She was extremely grateful, and you talked to the boys everyday for an hour about everything they did that day
They were excited, they learned how to properly see a map, because they didn’t want to rely on their phones as much, they sometimes stopped to camp, yes, actually camp, set a campfire, and roast marshmallows, they say they were practising for the summer at the lake, because you were going to have a lot of that.
This was only just beginning
Tumblr media
After chapter notes: Oberyn Martell in this universe is like… if Jackie Chan had a lovechild with Robert Downey Jr’s Tony Stark 😂
Sorry if it wasn't that exciting... perhaps I'm saving myself for the next one

The Lifeaters (III.5)
Tumblr media
V. Crush-ing it
MASTERLIST
Chapter Summary: Unlike last year, nothing was going to stop this school year
Pairings: Draco Malfoy x Fem!Reader (platonic)
Warnings: Cursing, magical objects, Mugglephobia, classism, charms and curses, might miss some warnings
Wordcount: 2,3 k
Notes: Anyways… let’s keep swimming
Tumblr media
The night you spent all together in the great hall had been so much fun! giggling, talking and gossiping to late hours of the night, and then sleeping next to your closest friend
Draco had taken well the fact that you were trapped in Muggle studies, blaming it on Snape rather than on you, “my father will hear about this”, he said, and you were relieved 
Your group was closer than ever, even Tracy, who for the last two years had been a bit of a “lone wolf”. Your group of 10 closest friends. 
But also the night was a bit revealing, it turns out Black had tried to sneak into the Gryffindor common room, he had ripped a portrait that was the door to their private space
They were always in the middle of everything, weren’t they?
But you had your own things to worry about… your first match was coming nearer, and the weather was only getting worse
Trainings were brutal, you ended up moody all over, and the rain was making you slip from your broom and almost fall from it, Draco was all too happy watching you from the stands, claiming that he was going to be able to play in the actual game, but didn’t want to “chance it” with his arm, even though he was totally fine, at least to you.
You had to ask Marcus (who as he was in last year he had permission to go to Hogsmeade more often), to go to Dervish and Banges to buy some adhesive gum for the handle of the 
brooms.
But the date of the game…
It was Thursday today, you woke up… feeling terribly uncomfortable… again, and lucky for you, it was pouring, and Draco kept whining about his arm
Flint looked at the two of you
“And what’s up with you Basilik?”, he asked softly, he always spoke softly to you, not to your other team members though
“I don’t feel very well”, you muttered, unconsciously wrapping your arms against your midsection, he looked at the gesture with a frown
“Oh I get it, I have two older sisters”, he grumbled, “I’ll talk to Hooch and Wood”, he said, and walked away
“Really?”, you asked
“Yes, we can’t play in this weather anyways”, he said with a small smile, “and I understand Basilik, but don’t let it be a bother again”, he demanded, and you only nodded 
“Yes captain”, you said shyly
“Do you really don’t feel good?”, asked Draco, “what was that about?”
“It’s true”, you muttered
“Are you alright?”, he asked
“Yes! I will be”, you said surely
“Did you go to the infirmary?”, he insisted
“Draco”, you said, a bit more violet that you would like, “I’m fine”, from one second to the next his face paled, and he seemed horrified
“Oh! I’m sorry!”, he said quickly, looking into his pockets, “here,  a chocolate frog”
“What? why?”, you asked him, receiving the treat from his trembling hand
“Just because”, he said simply. He smiled shakily and nodded. You just shook your head, and went back inside before a huge storm fell over your heads.
The school day was over, and you almost sighed in relief when you saw Pansy, with whom you’d had marvelous talks about… girlhood
With a look she knew, and you sat by her side in the couch
“Those days uh?”, she asked, you only nodded, but as Draco saw that Tracy, Daphne and Milicent joined you, he ran off to his own room.
But it was not an excuse for the Defense against the dark arts you had, double period, Friday.
You were sitting next to Draco, holding yourself to not cuddle against his arm, you needed to cuddle something, or someone… 
But it wasn’t professor Lupin who entered the room next, it was professor Snape, to your disappointment
You admired him, he was the head professor of your house, but you could barely take him in the Potion’s classroom, and Defense against the dark arts was your relief. Even though this was the position he coveted the most, he was the best at potions!
“Turn to page 394”, he commanded with his drawling voice
“Excuse me, sir. Where's Professor Lupin?”, asked Potter
“That's not really your concern, is it, Potter?”, he asked, there is no one that he hated more than Potter, but he turned to the class nonetheless, “Suffice it to say your professor finds himself incapable of teaching… at the present time. Turn to page 394”, he insisted, to see there were some that didn’t even have their books over their tables yet
"Werewolves?”, you asked 
“Sir, we just learned about red caps and hinkypunks”, said Granger this time, gods she was annoying, “We're not meant to start that for weeks…”
“Quiet”, he warned, there is nothing he disliked more than being contradicted, “Now, which one of you can tell me the difference...between an Animagus and a werewolf?”, you raised your hand, the answer in your mind, “Baislik”, he called, even though Granger was almost jumping off of her seat.
“An Animagus is a person that chooses to turn into an animal, after completing a lot of complicated rituals to become one, but a Werewolf…”, oh you shouldn't have answered 
“A werewolf has no choice”, completed Granger with a smug face, “With each full moon… he no longer remembers who he is. He'd kill his best friend if it crossed his path… Furthermore the werewolf only responds to the call of its own kind”, Draco mocked Granger by howling into the class, making you laugh
“Thank you, Mr. Malfoy. That's the second time you've spoken out of turn, Miss Granger, are you incapable of restraining yourself or do you take pride in being an insufferable know-it-all?”, he growled, making you smile, was he actually defending you?, “Five points from Gryffindor”, Draco giggled by your side, nudging your side.
“As an antidote to your ignorance, and on my desk, by Monday morning two rolls of parchment on the werewolf, with emphasis on recognizing it”, everyone growled and you were so relieved to not play tomorrow 
The class continued as nothing had happened, it was the most boring class of defense against the dark arts of the year, and you wondered that if Snape coveted this position that much, shouldn’t he put more work into it? 
Draco started doodling a comic of Potter being struck by lightning while he was playing, and you thought it was hilarious, you actually helped him, drawing a quidditch player throwing a bludger at his head, with a tap of your wand, the picture started moving, and you giggled when Draco turned it into a paper plane and threw it at him 
Did you really have to make this huge assignment?
You felt terrible, but…with the correct amount of chocolate you were ready to attend the game, even though it was pouring, a full storm raging on, you wanted to skip it, you really did, because, what was the point? you could barely see! but all your friends were going so… and Pansy so much as dragged you under her umbrella.
As you were walking towards the pitch, under a tightly held umbrella, you passed by Potter
“If only my arm was fully healed”, mocked Draco, “such a pity”, you even felt better at his words, and to see Potter’s face, Potter’s wet face
An artwork
“Let’s go to the boxes”, you insisted, you wanted to walk arm in arm with Draco, but… Pansy gave you pleading eyes so you were forced into facing the storm alone… until… Matthew wrapped his arm around yours 
He was taller than you… and… sturdier… so you didn't complain when he hid under your umbrella, Greg on your other side 
it was hard to watch, as you anticipated, but the storm gave the match something else, something powerful to it
It was even, you had heard that Hufflupuff had a new captain and seeker, and you could tell there was a big difference between them this year, and the last. Marcus had been so determined that you had been slacking in what Quidditch strategy is referring to.
So you did your best to keep in mind their plays, and strategies, even though they could have been changed due to the weather.
Thunderstruck the field, catching the broom of a player, you expect more than one injured player today, it was even more interested to watch, as the players kept slipping off their brooms
You haven't been in a game in almost a year, due to last year’s cancellation.
The game was intense, truly intense, the storm wasn’t waning and players went from one side to the next. It was electric! and not only because of lightning
You were watching an excellent maneuver from the Hufflepuff’s chasers when suddenly, everyone started gasping and screaming, you looked up and saw both seekers, going up, up, up in the air in the search of that little golden thing
The golden snitch
they got lost in the clouds and you tried to paid no more mind to Potter, but to no avail as Cedric Diggory fell from the skies to everyone’s surprise
From one second to the next, the sky was filled with Dementors, and Potter was plummeting to his certain death. Everyone was shouting, gasping and crying, pointing to the falling seeker. 
It all happened so quickly, Dumbledore was watching the game, as he used to, and casted a spell so loud, the whole stadium
“Arresto Momentum!”, Potter stopped falling, landing slowly on the wet grass
Dementors were falling from the sky, over the pitch, and before you could do something, a blinding bright light covered the entire stadium, again, from Dumbledore’s hand, a spell so powerful it send all the Dementors away in a heartbeat
The game continued, despite it all, Cedric Diggory caught the snitch, and Draco was so shaken he didn’t even spoke against Dumbledore as he was also the witness to the most incredible spell any of us had ever seen
Say what you want about Dumbledore, he was a sucky headmaster, but he indeed was one of the greatest wizards that ever lived.
So the match had it all, intensity, a raging storm, players falling from their brooms, an incredible display of magic, but what was more important… A flagrant defeat for Gryffindor
You couldn’t stop smiling
Potter had a huge drop from the skies, and they had lost the match. He was in the infirmary next to a Hufflepuff that had been struck by lightning 
it was still pouring, so you had no choice but to go back to the common room, that was buzzing with excitement
it was a nice, and cozy weekend, you stayed in the common room, the elves in the kitchen already preparing wintery comfort food, and you even took time with your friends for some studying, and helping those who were behind in class, and you even wrote the essay for Snape, even though it was a secret out loud that Lupin had clarified that you didn’t have to write it. 
The week came nonetheless, soon it was monday and the classes started long for Muggle studies and Care for magical creatures, which was now very boring because Hagrid had lost his foot after what happened with Buckbeak
You still had to prepare a huge work for Muggle class, to find an object you could find in a muggle house and write a paper, describing it, how it was made, how it work, and what is was for, and you were panicking, you didn't had a clue, neither did Theo or Matthew
Draco had decided to take off his bandages, even though his arm was still tender, you had a game coming up, one that you couldn’t shake off, Ravenclaw, as opposed of Hufflepuff, and Professor Hooch didn’t care anymore if Draco’s arm wasn’t exhaled by then
It was in a couple of weeks, at the first Saturday of December
Now you were in potions, it was a light class, and there was an air of relief and happiness over your house, mainly because the Gryffindors were looking so gloomy.
Draco had taken full advantage to the fact that he didn’t had his bandages anymore, and perform great impressions of Potter falling off of his broom that had you cackling, even Snape was smirking when he thought nobody was looking
Weasley cracked sooner than you expected, Draco was in the middle of his impression when he was hit, straight in the face, by a wet and slippery crocodile heart.
“Ah!”, moaned Draco, and you actually didn’t want to touch him as he had goo on his face
“What is wrong with you Weasley?”, you asked him
“50 points from Gryffindor”, said Snape who was on the other side of the classroom but managed to turn just in time to witness the throwing 
“50!?”, asked Weasley, you mocked him good yourself, when he was not looking, you threw a little dead slug in his cauldron, it was going to make the potion turn soggy, not at all what Snape was asking for, and at the end of the class, he got a bad grade
You were so tired of them, what happened last year coming back to you, If they thought you were the worst kind of person, maybe you should be, at least to them 
Another week went by and you found yourself with broom in hand, ready to start the game
“Draco, watch out for Cho Chang, the new seeker”, muttered Flint, “we have faster brooms, but look over your shoulder, she tends to be a follower”
“Yeah, I’ll lose her in no time”, he muttered
“The Ravenclaws are smart”, said Pucey, “but we are faster than them”
“Yes, Beaters, you know what to do, keep the Bludgers into the kill zone, Basilik”, he called
“Yes?”
“You know what to do as well, you are still small enough to slip in, you need to keep that going, alright?”
“Yes Captain”
But it didn’t work
You sometimes forgot that you weren’t the only ones who watched every single game in search of the other team’s weaknesses, that they also studied your strategies, and consequently, had also devised ways to… try to win
You couldn’t have a window, you spend more time trying to evade the bludgers the Rvaenclaw’s beaters were throwing at you, they wouldn’t let you receive, pressing you between them both as soon as you got the Quaffle, and then they practiced the Parkin’s pinzer, and you fell for it
It was a good game, usually with the Ravenclaw it was quick, smart, with lots of strategy behind every play, the Slytherins were resourceful and clever, to Ravenclaw’s wits and intelligence.
You felt like they took out the best in you, in a wordless strategy with your captain, you fought back, with strength, waking up from your stupor
Draco had no interest in Cho, so he went to search for the snitch, rather than wait for the slippery little thing to come to him, so you usually found him going from one place to the next, also assisting in pressing on the other team
Your beaters got you an opening, so you did the classic movement in your team, Adrian and Marcus with the quaffle, taking all the attention of the Ravenclaw’s beaters so you swoop in from the outside of the pitch, Adrian passed on to you, and you managed to score
The only you you managed on the entire game
One goal by every chaser, and then, a bludger hit you on your side, taking your breath away, you were luckily closer to the ground, and managed to stay atop your broom, but you had to stop to recover, for only a few seconds, Marcus was going to ask for a timeout, but to no need…
Draco caught the snitch
DRACO CAUGHT THE SNITCH!
The next thing you knew, you had a horrible bruise over your ribcage, and you had trouble moving your arm but, Marcus’ friends of seventh year raised you in the air of the common room, as they did the entire team
Around you, a party was unraveling, the music was playing loud and they were all cheering for you
And it was only the first game of the season! this was going to be amazing!
You were on top of the world

I thought I was the only one who was getting scared because of this! I'm glad I'm not alone... and now i'm int he middle of the show Friends! age-like speaking JAJAJA
the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

I said this before and I say this again, my blog is a safe space, for people of all ethnicities and colors, and weights, I try to be as ambiguous as I can when it comes to my reader inserts... Of course I might fail
Yes I'm a latina women, (saying this because I was born in Latinoamerica, my parents and my family for many generations are from Latinoamerica), yes I am pale as a ghost (like my family, we are all caucasian), yes If you see a picture of me you would think I'm from the US, or Canada, or Europe, (yes when I was travelling in Europe EVERYONE seemed surprised that I was from South America)
And... I was raised in a very conservative environment, my parents are older (boomers), I was some sort of a miracle baby, so... yes, I was raised in the country with very conservative catholic views and mainly in the very right side of politics too, whatever that means to you
And I have been learning of the world, with an open mind.
And yes when I write I might let slip about customs and behaviours that are proper of my culture and beliefs...
But that's it
Yes my readers are all heterosexual and pronouns she/her but apart from that...
I'm always learning too, so bear with me
I will not stand with bullies, or racists
Peace out
and for FUCKS SAKE
Not be a racist and/or a bully, like, its not THAT FUCKING HARDDDDD!?!?!?!
WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU????
Live and let live!

I just gotta say, I'm just learning about this now, and I think this is insanity.
I will not deny, I had one of this writers in high regard, like, really, I even had a tag for her for when we communicated, (openly in Tumblr). and I read everything she wrote about HotD, and I never thought she would be involved in something like this
I thought this fandom, was about writing, kinkyness, angst, and fun, and escaping the real world, and live different lives, and I cannot believe, nor will I ever, why would they have a space for hate amongst all these positive things?? I mean... WHY!?
Do you really take the time to actually see and bully someone because of where they are from? It would never occur to me to do that, it would never cross my mind
Yes it might be impersonal, but when I come in here I see blogs, I see usernames, and I see what they write, I support those who I like, and I just let them go if I don't, that's it
I used to be sad that I couldn't have that extra step, and actually make like... personal friends... and communicate with them in a more personal note, or in groups like Discord, but I can't believe that ways of communication are being use for.
Anyways... i'm rambling, just gotta say that I keep writing obsenities here, more dissapointed than yesterday, and I also want to add, that this... TRULY surprised me, like I would have never expected this from this fandom, and from these people
FFFUUUUUCCCCCKKKKK
Y'ALL CAN EXCUSE RACISM?
Let's get one thing straight: I have no part in this chaotic mess (infact, I have blocked all the accounts mentioned below), but it's grinding my gears how it's devolving into another petty fanfic drama: case 607. I know this drama is getting the attention for certain individuals who are demonstrating mean girl behaviour and gossiping about other writers behind their backs. However, I am solely focused on addressing the racist and discriminatory remarks made by these individuals in the leaked text messages.
For those not in the loop, there's been a huge drama in the fanfic community involving leaked text messages from a group chat of four prominent members. In these messages, two users - Fae and Bel - have admitted to sending hate anons and talking smack about other writers behind their backs. Two other members left the group after it was revealed that B tried to make amends with someone who these two, Em and Ange, don't particularly care for. As a move to clear their names, Em exposed all the texts, trying to prove that Fae and Bel are the real villains here.
But wait, there's more! In these same chats, Bel not only mocked fellow non-English speakers but also bragged about sending rat emojis to an 18-year-old Pakistani writer who was already receiving racist anons. While everyone is focused on getting back at these two women for being shady af, it's mind-boggling how Em and Ange are suddenly jumping on the anti-racism train.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These two ladies stayed in the same chat as a fellow Pakistani writer was driven away because of racism, knowing full well that one of their own was contributing to it, and said NOTHING! Zero discouragement, no condemnation - they only hopped off when things got personal.
So here it is… I've had it with all of you hypocrites. You praise and encourage these women at every turn, feeding their egos like they're the second coming of Beyonce. But let's not forget who's always stirring up drama in this fandom - hint: it's these same people with a sense of entitlement the size of a planet. The issue is groupthink and y'all have all jumped on the bandwagon. You're worse than HBO's marketing department because just like their shitty teams, everyone involved here SUCKS ASS. You don't have to pick a side because they are all petty, mean losers. Bel and Fae are facing the consequences of their actions, which they rightfully deserve.
However, Em's exposé on Bel's racism seems more like an opportunistic move and it's disappointing that so many of you are supporting it. It's a predictable cycle now; there will be a half-hearted apology, an announcement of a hiatus, and then tons of people will flock to their inboxes to shower them with praise and excuses. It's ridiculous! I know there are many who feel the same way as me but are afraid to speak up because they don't want to upset the "village elders" and risk losing their connections and engagements. It's a joke atp!
Instead of taking responsibility for their own wrongdoings, they will come up with a list of 10 different cyber crimes by others to divert attention from their own nonsense. These very same women have confessed to creating multiple fake accounts, secretly stalking servers without mods noticing, and constantly harassing individuals through anon messages.
Yet, we are supposed to consider them as examples of moral integrity and ethical behavior? 😒

I need to...
I know it's been too long! like REALLY but I want you to know it's coming! the problem is... that I completely lost my inspiration for the chapter that is supposed to be "The Watergardens", because a part of being of the girls, reader and Sara, in the Watergardens in Dorne, having a nice girl time... there is nothing... and the second chapter "The Loveshack", ITS HUGE! Like really really huge! so, I need some more content for the first chapter... see what I mean?
I will watch some Adam Sandler movies and see what I can do, and the boys are in a roadtrip trough the North so... a little miscomunnication trope? a bit of angst? or maybe some sillyness like... the girls get robbes in the middle of nowhere and they have to endure some "Adventures" if they want to return back to the hotel?
Any idea is welcomed! like... PLEASE

Wordcount: 4.1 k
Notes: If you see something say something, come on and party tonightttt woooo
Tumblr media
You placed your broom on its stand over the common room table, taking advantage of the fact that there was no one there, it was late at night, the next day, you had a free first period so you could have a late night study session with your… muggle studies partners in crime
Theo and Matt
This week was the start of the Quidditch season, and you were so excited you had to give your broom their monthly maintenance 
“Alright so… muggles use this…. thing… called electricity”, muttered Theo reading his book, “and that is why they have synthetic light… and something that is called a Television?”, he said with difficulty
“Synthetic? but how?”, you asked, as you were trimming the edges of the bristle of your broom
“What is a television?”, asked Matthew
“Well, according to the pictures… apparently Muggles lock little people inside a box and watch them perform for their entertainment”, said Theo
“How little?”, asked Matthew, rubbing his chin, Theo showed him a picture, “that can’t be right”, he muttered, squinting at the old picture 
“No, slavery was abolished in both Muggle and magical world long ago”, you said
“But maybe those anti-slavery laws don’t apply to these little people”
“So… muggles have like… house-elves? but in the shape of tiny humans?”, you asked
You three took long moments to ponder on that fact, and Theo turned the page around
“We are gonna fail muggle studies”, he said, frowning, “apparently there is no such thing as little people locked in a box”
“So what is television?”, asked Matthew, Theo kept frowning, reading forwards
“It doesn’t say”, he said, “but in the course introduction the professor said we were going to watch a… what the muggles call a movie”, he muttered, “and it is perform in a television”
“movie, what is that?”, asked Matthew
“Sounds fun”, you offered
“It’s like a play, only… you watch it in a box”
“That’s odd”, muttered Matthew, you knew he was burning on the inside, but he had kept himself from saying horrible comments of the muggles, he was actually interested, rather than disgusted, or that is what it seemed like.
“But how are we going to watch it, if we need electricity?”, asked Theo
“What was electricity again?”, you asked. Theo kept reading
“It doesn’t say”, he concluded. He kept reading the book you had taken out of the library, and while he do it, you started polishing the handle on your broom, with a big jar of Fleetwood's High-finish handle polish
“Right now?”, he asked
“Quidditch season is about to start”, you said simply, “I have to keep my place in the team”
“Alright we need to choose an Muggle item and do a couple of parchments on it”, muttered Theo, “the topic is… items you can find in a muggle house”
“Professor Burbage gave us a list”, you said, walking to the table to reach your piece of parchment 
“What is a.. rubber duck?”, you asked, nobody knew
Tumblr media
Things were looking up in school, Defense against the dark arts had finally reached the level of interest that you knew it could reach, you were having so much fun with Professor Lupin and after the boggart that professor Lupin had managed to catch, he had also ACTUALLY showed you Red Caps, that were a small goblin-like creature that enjoyed blood baths. Then you went onto Kappas, actually went into the black lake to gaze upon them, monkey-like creatures with scales instead of fur 
You were enjoying it only too much, you had begun to flinch every time Draco would mock how Lupin dressed, until you made him stop. And he did, with grumbles, but he did
There was a lot of things Draco had stopped doing because of you, or in behalf of you
And you felt terribly guilty because of how much fun you were having in Muggle studies, and you will rather be caught dead than admit it, and theo did as well, but you were having the most fun
Not Matthew though, you tried to really get to him, if he was truly enjoying the classes and he really, really wasn’t.
You were curious about muggles and the way they lived but once you started uncovering it, Matthew felt rather… disgusted by them, now hating them with actual “evidence”, that they were weak, and strange, different from us, that they didn’t do magic…
You felt guilty after every class, because you were actually hiding the fact that you were in that class altogether.
There was no way of stopping Draco though, because, Care of magical creatures had become so boring and dull… Hagrid had lost all motivation, and he was scared of introducing you to more creature so he had you looking after the more dull creatures in the land, some worms and whatnot
But luckily, there was always Quidditch
You were on the field, with your Nimbus 2001 and Draco by your side.
It was Marcus Flint’s last year ever, and he seemed truly excited, and determined, to win the cup for Slytherin -again- 
“I want Malfoy and Basilik”, he said, determined, you and Draco shared excited looks, he wasn’t even going to put you on “trial” to stay on the team. Adrian will also stay on his position as Chaser alongside you and Marcus , so, there was little change to many’s dismay
For the second year, you were the only woman on the team, even though there were older girls wanting to tryout
Marcus had you by his side on the air as he did actually oversee the tryouts, even though the team was full, he wanted to have spares for each of you, in case something may befall you
“Do you really want me on the team?”, you asked Marcus, he looked back at you
“You score like five goals for match, of course I do”, he said, and you were so relieved that nobody could wipe the smile of your face for the rest of the day
Fall was approaching quickly, and with it, came heavy rains, storms and later the powerful winter, but you were excited for the Quidditch winter gear as last year Quidditch season was canceled due to the attacks by the Basilisk and the chamber and all that, this year… nothing or no one could ruin this season.
Nothing
The team, luckily for you, stayed the same as last year, Marcus, Adrian and you as chasers, Peregrine Derrick and Lucian Boyle as beaters, they were both fifth years, and then Draco as a seeker, and Miles Blatchley as the Keeper.
You were feeling confident, you had played together last year, you had a great start.
What concerned you, and also Marcus… was Draco… he lost the snitch last year because he was too busy trying to mock Potter, and he needed to let that go if you were to win against Gryffindor that was your very first match, in around a month or so
Marcus gave you the training schedule, and thanks to himself and Snape, you had very good schedules, three times a week, right after classes.
You were having fun in your classes, you were on the Quidditch team, and now… Halloween was coming soon
And with it, your first weekend in Hogsmeade
“I’m so excited to go to Hogsmeade”, yous aid as you took a seat with difficulty on the common room couches
Your buttocks and thighs hurt like hell, after the first week of Quidditch training, but it was because you hadn't use the broomstick on a while
“Our very own all-witching town”, said Draco with a smirk, “my father was not going to let me go, since Black is at large, but I told him he would never dare to come near us”, he said
“Do you really think he would come here? To Hogwarts?”, asked Blaise, taking a seat on the opposite couch
“You know, they say he is insane!”, said Draco, “The minister himself said that he heard him chanting, “he is at Hogwarts! He is at hogwarts!” he clearly is coming here to murder Potter”, he said so happy.
“Why?”, you asked him, :you never told me the real story”
“Nobody knows the full details”, he said dismissively, “but it's said that he was a spy, for the Dark Lord, against the blood traitors, so, he revealed his true colors by betraying the Potters, telling the Dark Lord about their location”
“So he is a snitch”, you mocked
“For the Dark Lord”, said Draco with a smile, “now he will finish what he started, he will come here to kill Potter, because he is the one that made the Dark Lord go away”
“So a murderous maniac is coming into the castle to kill Potter, and you are ok with that?”, asked Theo
“It seems crazy to me, why would he come to Potter while he is in the Muggle world?”, asked Pansy, “wouldn’t that be easier?”. that made Draco chuckle and Pansy blushed scandalously. 
“Anyways, who wants to talk about Potter?”, asked Matthew, “Maybe Black will do us the favor of getting rid of him so he’ll stop ruining every school year”, you all laughed. “What I really want to know is… who wants to go to the shrinking shack with me?”, he asked and he looked at you
“They say is the most haunted house in Europe!”, said Theo excitedly 
“But they say it's impossible to get in”, you muttered sadly
“Well, because we have never tried before”, mocked Matthew
“What I want to know is… if Hogsmeade is an all-wizard community, will we be able to do magic there?”, asked Daphne
“No, I don’t think there is a loophole there, I think no underage wizards are able to do magic outside of Hogwarts, ever”, said Blaise
“I can’t wait to get to Zonko’s”, said Matthew with a big smile, “buy some Dungbombs”
“As long as you don’t throw them in here”, mocked Theo
“I want to go and check out…”
“Honeydukes”, answered Draco for you, and you felt your cheeks heated but nodded enthusiastically
“Yes, I want to try the fudge”, you giggled, “but also… the Dervish and Banges”
“Oh yeah, the wizarding equipment shop”, said Blaise
“Yeah, and afterwards, we can go to the three broomsticks and have some butterbeer”, said Matthew
“Yes!”
“Totally!”
Days went by quite quickly, and soon, you were giggling with Pansy and Daphne in your room.
Your boots that even though had heels were really comfortable, and you were so happy with the things Pansy had made you buy when you spend that day together in Diagon Alley, as you put on your new favorite jacket 
“You look so cute, but… for who?”, she teased
“Nobody”, you said mindedly, you knew she had 
“I bet it’s for Theo”, Daphne said with a somewhat dark tone that sounded a bit mean
“no, not really”
“Matthew?”, teased Pansy
“No!”, you said loudly, “no one!”
With heated cheeks you went to meet everyone outside, the boys were giggling and snickering as you walked to them, and Draco seemed crossed to a blushed Matthew
Draco smiled at the sight of the three of you
“Ready?”, you asked excitedly, Filch was in the entrance, checking names from a list, as it was the first time for you all third-years, you were all in the courtyard
“Remember, those visits to Hogsmeade village are a privilege!”, said McGonaggal with her serious face, “should your behavior reflect poorly to the school, it will not be extended again”
You all nodded for her to just let you go, and you started the walk to the village, you looked away when you walked by the dementors guarding the gates to Hogwarts.
It was already 31st of October, Halloween! you were going to spend all day in Hogsmeade and then the famous Halloween feast! your smile couldn’t be erased off your face
You were a big group, even amongst your friends… the village appeared in front of you and you were so happy, but your group of 10 didn’t split.
First you came across the post office, which impressed you with a hundred owls, of all sizes and color, some of them could fly internationally! you wondered if you could train Umbra to go to France and back
“Let’s go to Honeydukes”, you didn't even realize Matt was this close to you, but the rest of your friends was going the other way 
“Oh”, you doubted, you didn’t want to split from the group, but it would be rude if you refused him, so you nodded and started walking with him. Draco and consequently Pansy noticed, so they stayed behind and went with you
Matthew now seemed crossed, but he didn't say anything as Pansy and you stuck your faces into the big showcases filled with different flavored fudges 
You bought a box
“I would like a marble, the one with strawberries, mint, white chocolate, and the one with dark currants”, you started picking yours, and Pansy chose her own box
“I’ll pay for that”, muttered Draco
“No, it was my idea, I’m going to invite her”, said Matthew, you and Pansy exchanged looks, “you invite Parkinson’s, I’ll invite Basilik…”
“I ALWAYS pay for Basilik’s treats”, said Draco angrily
“Guys”, Pansy was over the moon, you were even concerned for this weird development, you took out sickles for your box, but Matthew grabbed your hand and payed himself, alongside his own treats, and Drco, with a frown, payed for Pansy and his own
“Thank you Matt, you shouldn’t have”, you whispered
“You are most welcome”, he said with a smile
The group had walked away already, you catched a glimpse of MIlicent and Vince turning a corner 
You looked back and catched Draco and Matthew gazing at each other like they were challenging one another to some duel or something
“We can go to Zonko’s”, you suggested, and Matthew then came out of his stupor, looked at you and nodded, and you four directed yourselves there
Zonko's joke shop was brilliant! you had never thought about jokes and tricks before, but you had an amazing time inside it
You could try everything they sold in there, and Matthew bought a bunch of stuff, you yourself even bought a “tempest in a bottle”, it was a glass bottle that contained, as the name entailed, a little storm
It was supposed to be a prank, to make it rain inside a room, once released, it would release a storm for fifteen minutes, but it looked so beautiful inside the bottle that you probably just were going to let it sit on your nightstand
This time, while Matthew wasn’t looking, you paid for his dungbombs 
“Only Basilik would but a tempest in a bottle just to look at it”, teased pansy, grabbing into your arm as you walked down the street
“I found it truly mesmerizing!”, you said with a wide smile
“Let’s go to the shrieking shack!”, said Pansy, pointing at a street that led to the outside of town
“Yeah! let’s do it!”, said Matthew, you shared concerned looks with Draco, you were not the bravest of the bunch but you didn’t want to seem cowardly in front of Pansy and Matthew, and well, you were four, and had your wands with you, what could go wrong?
You reached the last barrier of the house, a poorly made wired fence
You doubted, but you were also skeptical, it seemed like an abandoned house, just that, and you had heard that it was the most haunted house in Europe, but not because an awful massacre had occurred there, only because… so… it couldn’t be that bad, right?
But as you were walking down a narrow road, you stopped suddenly as Draco had spotted something in the distance
“What’s that!?”, he asked, pointing, when you saw a huge, huge black dog. he came at you, with a quick pace 
“Look!”, you shrieked, “A doggy!”
“Ah!”, Draco screamed, scared, “I don't know what that thing is but it is not a dog!”, Matthew seemed scared, but you and pansy came close to it, and he let you pet him, at least, he looked lke a “he”
“Nonsense, look how cute!”, yes it was true it was an abnormally large dog, but he let you get close enough to pet him, he cooed under your touch, “hey doggy, are you alone? Do you have a home?”
“Basilik for Merlin’s sake leave that animal alone, maybe what kind of diseases it has!”, said Matthew.
Caressing unknown dogs was a dangerous thing, even for wizards, but you couldn’t help it, the dog smelled you your hands and face
“Are you hungry boy?”, you asked, but you didn’t have anything with you, and right now, you couldn’t conjure or transfigure anything, as you couldn’t do magic outside of school.
“Basilik, for the last time, please, leave that dog!”, muttered Draco
“it’s hungry!”, you said, you looked into your bag, and you found a muffin you were not going to eat, as you cast a small spell, to turn it into mince meat, small spells were not that detectable, and then you gave it to the dig, who eat it earnestly 
“Please, can we go now? we promised we were going to go to the three broomsticks”, said Draco
Taking this huge dog to the school was out of the question, it broke your heart to leave him, until… he left you first, with a last -what you thought was- a sad look, the dog trotted away quickly, so you didn't felt as bad that you couldn’t take him if he didn’t want to go with you
“Let’s go, and please wash your hands”, said Draco, and you and Pansy walked back to town and to the three broomsticks to meet with the others. 
You couldn’t stop giggling and talking about what a great time it has been as you walked back to the castle right at sundown
And now it came something even better
You and hold onto the fudge and not eat it right away, because the feast was waiting for you
Halloween was your favorite holiday
The candles in the skies where pumpkins, above them near the clouded ceiling, were bats flying haphazardly, and all around the candlesticks and torches were orange streamers. It looked great like always.
The food, as always, was creepy and delicious, you even managed to get several servings of profiteroles filled with ice cream and bathed in chocolate.
At the very end, the ghosts popped out of the wall, they floated around, and started reenacting their deaths… Even the bloody Baron told your table… how he died…
And nearly headless Nick told gladly the story of his infamous name. 
As you were leaving the great hall, you ended up next to Potter, to which Draco couldn’t help but whisper 
“The dementors send their regards, Potter!” 
You were doing a bit of flaunting the things you had bought to your friends in the common room, when Marcus himself strode inside the room
“That fudge looks good Basilik, give me some?”, he asked, reaching, you snatched your box away and looked at him angrily
“Wanna’ lose a hand there Flint?”, you threatened
“I’m your quidditch team captain!”, he said, entertained
“Try me”, you said, and he removed his hand.
All the Slytherins were in the common room, all too excited by the feast, the sugar and the visit to Hogsmeade to go to sleep, but you didn’t have too
The Head Boy -who you couldn’t name right now- came rushing in, along with the head Girl
“Black has entered the castle!”, he said hastily, all houses have to present themselves in sleeping attire in the great hall
It was mayhem in the common room, and you didn't know if you had to be scared or excited 
You all were back in the common room, that was not dressed in Halloween anymore, the tables had disappeared, it stood empty, but the candles and ceiling were still there. Dumbledore stood taller than most
"The teachers and I need to conduct a thorough search of the castle," he said out loud, white the big doors being closed behind you, "I'm afraid that, for your own safety, you will have to spend the night here. I want the prefects to stand guard over the entrances to the hall and I am leaving the Head Boy and Girl of each house in charge. Any disturbance should be reported to me immediately”, he was set to leave the hall, but then he turned around, "Oh, yes, you'll be needing...", the floor, from one second to the next, was covered with hundreds of very thick, comfortable-looking purple sleeping bags. 
"Sleep well," said Dumbledore, closing the door behind him.
Not even two seconds and the hall buzzed alive with giggles, conversations and more, you came together with your friends, feeling so excited.
Clearly Black wasn't a threat to you all, but, this was kind of exciting, having a massive sleepover with your entire house! and well, the other houses were there as well
“Quiet!”, demanded the older Weasley, ever the waterparty
“Weasle relax!”, said your own head boy, which made you smile
You wasted no time in accommodating yourself near Draco, but as Pansy looked at you with pleading eyes, you decided to step back a few paces, sleeping rather than by his side, putting your heads together.
“Boys on one side, girls on the other!”, commanded Weasley, but students started booing him.
You were accommodated in some sort of a circle, Matthew had accommodated by your side, you would have preferred to sleep around your girlfriends, but they were scattered around the group, Pansy seemed all too Happy, and Draco had managed to place himself on your other side.
“How do you think Black entered the castle?”, asked Matthew whispering at you
“Well, a castle this big, has to have secret passageways”, you said, “Black was a student here, he probably knows more of its secrets”
“That makes sense”, said Pansy
“But you’d think that as a Wizard as powerful as him would know how to apparate”, said Greg
“You cannot simply apparate into Hogwarts”, said Draco, “its enchanted, and protected by spells that doesn’t allow apparition and other irregular ways of magical transportation”
“So he could have only walked right through the gates, then”, said Theo
“Yeah, without being seen, or catched by the dementors”, mocked Tracy
“Do you think they would come in here?”, you asked
“Dumbledore hates them, he couldn’t have possibly let them in”, said Draco with a frown 
“Well even though there is a murderous maniac running around inside the castle, I think this is kinda cool, like a big sleepover”, you said with a smile
A couple of hours passed as you started to fall asleep one by one, Draco’s stormy eyes found you in the night
“Are you alright?”, he asked, as he saw you couldn’t sleep. You were a bit concerned, a strange sensation in the back of your throat, professor’s trelawney’s “prophecy” played in your mind over and over.
“Yes, yes”, you whispered, you tried to move, but Matthew had rolled over and was stuck to your back
“Don’t you worry, is Potter he wants, not pure blooded wizards such as ourselves”, he said softly, you smiled
“I know, we are not in danger because of Black, is just, Professor Trelawney freaked me out in her first class, she said that I was going to find what I was looking for, and other things that I was going to become complete, and… I think it's because I'm going to find out who my father was but… I’m scared”, you confessed 
“Why?”, he asked back
“He is probably dead, or, what if he is not, what if he had done terrible things? what if he was a terrible person?”
“I don’t think he is”, he said softly
“Then why would nobody tell me who he is? everyone seems to know who he is!”, you said
“I don’t know”, he said sincerely
“Do you think your parents would tell me if I ask them?”
“I think they wouldn’t dare cross Cercille”, he said
“You are right”
“QUIET OVER THERE!”, and booing was heard again to shush Weasley
“But I think I feel guilty, I’m having such a good time and this is just looming over me, like, I have to think something is going to go wrong because I’m so happy right now”, you explained softly
“You are right, that’s it”, he said, nodding, “you will find out who he is, whomever it is, and I will be there, and Cercille, and my parents”, he offered.
“Thank you”
“You never told me what class are you taking instead of Divination”, he wondered 
“You are never going to believe this”, you said apologetically
