slytherin movie nights.
a tradition amongst your friend group.
once a week a name was picked out of a hat and that person got to pick a movie for you all to watch.
the tradition arose when you brought a projector with you to school during your second year along with a black vhs your mother had taught you how to charm to be a different movie every time.
during october most of the films picked were scary movies.
unless you got your hands on it, in which case it was rom coms & comedy's all night.
but today pansy had the choice of movie and she had gone for 'the blair witch project', a film you had heard a lot about, but none of the things you had heard made it something you wanted to watch.
people had called it terrifying, a psychological mindfuck and you weren't exactly looking forward to it.
the set up was the same as usual, teas & hot chocolates were distributed amongst the group with two bowls of snacks on the table infront of all of you.
you were curled up to theo's side with your legs draped over his lap as his fingers traced up and down your shin.
about half an hour into the film you had your head buried in the crook of theo's shoulder.
it really wasnt a pleasant film, but your friends sat through all the films you picked so you felt like you had to sit through this too.
" you okay, baby ?" theo whispered, his lips brushing against your forehead as he spoke.
you paused for a few moments before you responded, lifting your gaze to look up at him
" i don't like scary movies - " your voice was barely there. you didnt want the others to know how tense and uncomfortable you currently were.
a soft smile spread across his lips as he looked down at you before he pressed a kiss onto your forehead.
" dont worry, i'll keep you safe " he whispered, his arm tightening around your shoulders to pull you slightly closer to him.

sometimes i hate being a woman because i just realized i’ve been living vicariously through so many nhl players this entire time because i will literally never make it to that level of professional hockey even though it’s always been my dream. like no matter how hard i work at it or how bad i want it, i will never be good enough because of my gender. it hurts so much to think about the fact that even 100 years from now there will probably still not be room for women in the nhl. little girls will continue to grow up with unachievable dreams because there is nothing in place for them to achieve them. the PWHL only had their inaugural draft this past season. we are over 100 years behind. currently the most you will probably make in the PWHL is $80,000 a year and the average nhl player gets paid $3.5 million per year. that means the HIGHEST PAID women in the PWHL will be paid 43.75 times less than the AVERAGE nhl player. currently, the highest paid nhl player receives $12.6 million per year. 157.5 times less. i’m not even angry about this. it’s just heartbreaking to sit down and think about it sometimes.

never had you been so bored on a saturday.
with your friends all studying and theo not arriving at school until tomorrow after the summer holidays, you were truly bored out of your mind.
to the point where you had made a pillow fort onto of your bed.
with your curtains drawn around your bed you had draped a sheet over the top to truly enclose yourself and had strung fairy lights around the bed frame.
it took ages.
and by the time you were done with it you were actually very proud of yourself.
when you were younger your pillow forts never looked like this, mainly because you didn't have the skill to accomplish it, but it just made this one all the more impressive.
you had been curled up in it all day with a cup of coffee and a book that you had been meaning to get to for weeks but never found the time.
it was a truly lovely day.
and you had been undisturbed until the lights in your dorm room started flickering.
" stop playing around with the lights, it's not funny " you called out, assuming that pansy was just trying to get you out of your fort for something.
which really wasnt going to happen.
when the flickering of the lights didn't stop, you set your book down on the bed and balanced your coffee down ontop of it before popping your head out.
" what the hell is w-" you started but immediately cut yourself off when you didnt see pansy or any of the girls at your doorway.
instead, stood in your dorm was your 6 foot boyfriend still damp from the rain outside. he must have just gotten in.
" holy shit " you said, jumping out of your fort, catching yourself momentarily on the string lights around your four poster.
the lights stopped as theo made his way over to you to stop you from falling over.
the minute you were free you launched yourself into his arms, a bright smile on your face as you embraced the man you hadn't seen in weeks.
his arms wrapped tightly around you, lifting you from the floor as he did so, your legs instinctively wrapping themselves around his waist.
" what are you doing here? you weren't supposed to get here until tuesday " you questioned, not daring to move your head from the crook of his neck, instead choosing to continue imprinting his scent in your brain.
" i used the floo. my parents were being pricks and i just wanted to come and see you " he replied, his breath warm against your neck.
its as the mention of his parents that had you pulling back to look at him.
" are you okay? " you questioned, knowing the crap with his parents got to him quite easily.
" im perfectly fine, darling. but i'm here now, and i just want to enjoy some time with you before classes start next week. "
his reply caused your smile to widen even further.
" well then... " you started, lowering your legs from around his waist and taking his hand in yours.
