Sebastian's Perspective
Sebastian,
I apologize, we will have to post-pone the Arithmancy study session tonight.
The Ministry of Magic has called me for a quest.
I cannot deny. Even if I wanted to.
I'll see you next class.
Sincerely, Y/n.
I sat at the edge of the Slytherin bed that night. I stared blankly at the parchment paper in my hand and let out a heavy sigh.
"Sebastian?" Ominis voice let out, entering the dormitory and hearing my sigh, "I predicted you'll be—"
"Unfortunate news, Ominis," I threw the letter aside on the bed and stood up, undoing my tie, "The Ministry had other plans for Y/n."
Ominis dried his shirtless body with a towel and also sat at the edge of his bed, "Hm. Already? At such a late hour?"
"You know they never measure their limits with her." I murmured, going through my luggage and picking out clothing attire for sleep, "I should call it a night and take a bath."
"And why are you upset?" Ominis questioned.
I didn't meant to be upset — actually, I was upset. I've adjusted being with Y/n now. I was already startled going nights without each other for the next few months, I couldn't imagine losing our only spare time for her quests. Let alone, I hated that after the pressure with NEWTs, Y/n had pressure of the Ministry.
"Why am I not upset, Ominis? The Ministry has her like a weapon." I mumbled out, "Do you realize how overworked Y/n has been since her wake? Let alone, now? What breaks can she truly have? It isn't fair."
Ominis nodded, "I do seem to agree with you, Sebastian, but it hasn't been anything new. Y/n did this since the fifth year." He reminded, "Plus, with the magic now...it shouldn't be difficult for her."
I frowned, "You're such a great help."
"Well, it is not my fault you've become extremely attached to Y/n, Sebastian. I do not blame you, but this is the Ministry of Magic." Ominis informed.
"It's the first day of school. Couldn't they wait?" I complained.
"Couldn't you wait? You were about to meet up with Y/n for a Arithmancy study session. That's also work for her." Ominis joked, "It's the same thing on her end."
