"How do you sleep at night knowing that there are some people in the world who want you dead?" Pansy asked curiously, a sincere look on her face as I let out a scoff





"Without underwear: in case they want to kiss my sweet arse"






"Love that answer"






"Good-"






"Wait... are you telling the truth?" Daphne asked quietly as Pansy started laughing and I lay back down with a smile, looking at the two with a shrug





"You don't need to know that"






"I'm kind of hoping you're only joking"






"You're dumb. This is Amelia-"






"But-"






"Just ask Diggory. He'll know"






"Excuse me?!" I shrieked as I pushed myself up, the two on the verge of laughter as I stared at them wide eyed

"And how'd you work that out?!"






"He knows everything about you"






"... shut up..." I mumbled quietly as I looked away from the two and started laughing with them as the dorm door banged open and we looked at Blaise expectantly

"Yes?"






"There's too much laughing. Who's dead?"







"Ha, my will to live"







"What's it like to have that?" I asked Pansy as she burst out laughing and I pushed myself up laughing as I looked between them

"Wow I'm depressing"







"Please don't tell me you're only now noticing"







"No, of course not..."







"Bloody hell-"








"Blaise, I've been depressing since the day I was born. I think I'd have of noticed"






"Hank Merlin"






"Hank Merlin?"







"I forgot the 't'"







"How can you forget to pronounce the 't' in 'thank'?!" I asked ludicrously, staring at him dumbfounded as he shrugged, sending me a grin as he wandered over and sat down next to me, sprawling out on my bed as I poked him with a laugh






"I'm dumb, okay?"








"Well we knew that. We're kind of looking for more of an explained answer, you know"







"That's rude, Pansy-"








"She's actually got a point Daphne- anyway, why're you through here?"







"Well apart from wanting to find out as to why you were all laughing so loud I was told to tell you that you have quidditch practice-"







"I do?"







"Considering you have a match against Hufflepuff in a few days time, yes! You do have training!" Blaise told me laughing as I groaned, the door banging open as I turned with the others, staring at Miles and Adrian who were standing there with grins and bloodshot eyes





"Train ride to the quidditch pitch!"







"Choo choo!"







"All aboard the depression express!"







"Next stop: Sad Street!"







"Via Regret Road!" They shouted over each other, collapsing against each other laughing as we all stayed silent and I turned away, rubbing my head annoyed as I let out a quiet groan





"They're fucking high...."







"What's wrong with them? Like, seriously"







"So much, honestly. And you don't even know half of it- you don't want to" I told Daphne quietly before getting up, grabbing my broom from under my bed and walking over to the two before waving to the others as I shut the door behind me and looked to them as Miles motioned to his back

"What're you doing?"






"Do you want a lift?"







"Fuck yes" I told him laughing as I jumped on his back, laughing as I was carried from the common room and I grinned at Adrian over my shoulder before turning back and kissing the side of Miles' head with a smile

"Thank you"







"Don't worry about it"







"Are you two high?"








"Only slightly. We're still conscious though"







"And is that an achievement?"







"Damn right it is-"







"Let's stop talking about us being high for a moment. I want to know if it's true"







"If what's true?" I asked Adrian as Miles stopped and turned to look at him as he also turned his head to me, slightly red as I peered between them and he walked nearer






"Have you gotten yourself into a duel?"







"Yep-"








"Fucking hell!"







"How'd you find out?"







"Your brother told Toby and then he told us"







"Oh.... I didn't even know Oscar knew"







"So tell us what's happening then-"







"I will on the way down. So come on Miles, keep walking"
