Song- 'Easy' by Commodores

End of fourth year

"We're going to miss you so much Tills" Pansy squeezed her into a tight hug while everyone stood in the courtyard.

"I'm going to miss you all too Pans" Tilly squeezed her just as tight, tears traced tracks down her now rosy cheeks.

"We'll see you in summer though right?" Draco asked the girl as he tugged her out of Pansy's arms and into his with her arms wwrapped around his waist.

"I'm not sure, my parents lectured me on some bullshit of getting 'too attached' to you all. They think that I won't be able to cope having to leave all over again" she sniffled into Draco's chest, her blonde curly locks pressed against her stained cheek.

"Oh god" Draco sighed and directed her to Blaise as he attempted to bite back tears.

"Gonna miss you waking us up at the arse crack of dawn for training" Blaise's arms squeezed her shoulders with a sad chuckle.

"You all better still try out, every year. Don't you dare miss a single one, just because I'm gone doesn't mean quidditch should be too." She raised an eyebrow at the three boys. Theo am un-readable look on his face where he leant against the tree, staring at the cobblestone.

"If it helps you sleep at night Buckling" Draco smirked.

"Course we will" Blaise rubbed her shoulder comfortingly as she stood next to him staring unsurely at Theo, who hadn't picked up on her concern.

"Theo" she said softly, his head shot up at the sound of her voice saying his name as if it made him jump.

"Huh? What?" He said completely confused, obviously someone was trapped in their own little world.

She sighed.

Taking the short amount of steps to close the space between them, she almost leapt into his arms. Wrapping her arms round his neck, his immediately flew to her waist as her tip-toes just barely touched the ground.

The three other Slytherin's knew that their goodbyes would be no match for these two, this moment was going to be miles more difficult for Theo and Tilly.

Theo, Draco, Blaise and Tilly had been childhood friends since the ripe age of five, despite the boys having more in common, Theo and Tilly had always been closer. And they had met Pansy in their first year of Hogwarts.

Theo clung to her as if his life depended on it, sometimes he thought it actually did. She had been with him through it all; when his mother died, when he first flew his broom, when he lost his first tooth, and so much more. They did everything together and were practically joint at the hip. The two fifteen year olds had never had to do anything like this, the one thing they always had was each other. It was the two of them against the world.

And now she was leaving.

"Write to me" she sobbed while she held Theo's tear-streamed face in her hands.

"You know i will" he smiled sadly.

"Theo I don't want to go" she sniffled, his eyes softened at her and filled with tears. She was only ever vulnerable with him, this was the first time the others had seen her cry. She had always, always refused to in front of them.

"I don't want you to either but this is going to be amazing for you, this is your future we're talking about. Don't let us hold you back Tills, you are the strongest person I know. If anyone deserves this opportunity it's you, take it and run with it. You'll smash this out of the park, show those sexist pigs that you're making it." He placed his large hands on her damp cheeks.
