we're all sat in my dorm: me, enzo, theo and draco sat on my beanbags and blaise and matt sat on the end of my bed

"wait when did you guys say the first quidditch match is?" i ask

"i believe it's this saturday, why?" draco says

"umm afterparty? this schools so boring" i groan and lean back in my seat, kind of sliding around on the beanbag

"oh yeah, we have practice wednesday and friday if you wanna come watch?" he replies 

"sure... i'm gonna get changed, i feel like if i spend any longer in this uniform i might lose my mind, my shirts been so fucking irritating today" i say, standing up and going to my wardrobe to grab a tight long-sleeved black top, some black and green plaid pj trousers and some fluffy socks.

i go into the bathroom and get changed and then come back out and hang my uniform over my chair, grabbing my vape, phone and glasses, putting them on before sitting back down on the beanbag. i listen to the boys talk about quidditch and discuss strategies or something like that whilst i puff on my vape and scroll through instagram. theo (who's sat on the beanbag on the left of me) turns and looks at me and taps my leg lightly, i turn to face him,"can i have some of that?" he asks, pointing to my vape. i nod and pass it to him

i watch as he puffs on it, leaning his head back as he blows out the smoke, watching it go up and then disappear into the air. my eyes travel down to his hand, looking at his new tattoo and how his hand moves when he lifts the vape back to his mouth. i sit there in silence, not realising that i'm staring until he thanks me and passes the vape back, snapping me out of it. i take it back and move back in my seat, puffing on it again.

i can practically feel his eyes burning into me, theo's head is turned to the side and his eyes are scanning me up and down. i smirk slightly to myself and then stand up, walking away from him, and to my desk. i sit down and start rummaging through my draws looking for something, i pull open the middle draw and pull out a bottle, then standing up and sitting back down on the beanbag again. i open the bottle and take a mouthful of the liquid, scrunching my eyebrows whilst swallowing it and then putting it down again.

i put some music on my phone, connecting it to my speaker and playing it on a low volume as the boys are still talking. i drink more and lay my head back so i'm staring at the ceiling. i pick up my phone and call luna, she picks up

"heyyyy, do you wanna come hang out, they boys are here too, by the way?" i ask her

"yeah sure, you want me to bring some?" she says

"of course, we're all in my dorm"

"okay, i'll see you in 20"

she hangs up the phone and i put it down to see all the boys staring at me, "what?"

"who was that?" blaise asks

"luna" i reply and drink some more

"okay? what you got there jade?" he points at the bottle in my hand

"...vodka" i look away

"and you didn't want to share?" he raises his eyebrow at me

i look up to him and scrunch my eyebrows, pulling a fake confused look. he holds his hand out and i pass the bottle to him and then turn up the music a bit so i can quietly sing along. 

----------------

luna comes in wearing a baggy yellow top, some grey joggers and white socks. i get her to sit on my beanbag as i move onto the floor at the foot of my bed infront of blaise and matt

"okay, i brought 4 so would you guys mind sharing?" she asks the group

"not at all" i smile at her

luna stands up and hands a joint to matt and blaise, enzo and draco, and me and theo, keeping one for herself, "thank you" i smile up at her as i move over to theo to lean on the side of his beanbag, my head next to his chest but propped up by my hand

she sits down and we all light the joints and start puffing on them. i take a few puffs on mine an then look up slightly and pass it to theo. i went over and grabbed the bottle from the floor over by blaise and then went back to where i was, downing a bunch of the vodka and shaking my head as i swallowed it. i puff on my vape and then start singing to the song playing: the house of the rising sun- the animals. 

the song ends and i lay my head next to theo's stomach as he gently strokes my hair. i sigh,"i'm hungry- oh wait" i sit up and look around for a second, then standing up and walking over to the side of my bed and then getting on my knees and looking underneath my bed. i see a big box full  of stuff and pull it out then moving and pulling it all the way back so that it's in front of where i'd been sitting. i sit back down and open the box, looking through it and then pulling out a pack of sour rainbows and some blueberry muffins.
