Setting: Beginning of December; after a Quidditch match with Hufflepuff, Jemima's p.o.v.

"You were great out there!" Theo exclaims after the game

"Thanks Theo," I say quietly with a slight blush

Slytherin just won the match, which means we'll be versing Gryffindor after the holidays; Theo and I have been getting closer ever since that night in the tower. We talked till the early hours of the morning, and he admitted to liking me for just as long as Draco; only, he never did anything about it. He's sweet, and kind, and gentle, but he's not Draco...maybe he's what I need to get over Draco...

"Best beater I've ever seen," he tells me

"Oh stop it," I say getting embarrassed

"No, I mean it, you are Mima," he says pulling me into a hug

"Don't," I whine and laugh slightly, "I'm all covered in snow, and sweaty, and gross."

"You're lovely," he laughs and kisses my damp hair

"Hey Nott!" Comes an angry-almost territorial-shout from behind us

We turn around, only to see an angry looking Draco and not too happy looking Astoria right behind him; what could they possibly want now?

"Malfoy," Theo greets with a slight bitterness to his tone as he drapes his arm around me and pulls me close to him

"Wibble," Astoria greets

"Astoria," I say quietly

"Good game," she says as Theo and Draco have a glaring contest

"Thanks," I say quietly

"..." we glance up to the boys still having their glare off, and then back to each other

"Wanna go get a butter beer in hogsmead?" I ask looking back to her, "seeing as they're in their own little world..."

"Fine," she says, "but you're buying."

"Yea, whatever," I say with a sigh, "let's go."

We spend the time in the three broomsticks, sipping butterbeer and silence as we both awkwardly wait for our boyfriends to realize that we're both gone...

"So, Nott," she inquires awkwardly

"Yep," I reply just as awkward

"I thought you and Crabbe hit it off," she admits sounding a bit-sad? Or jealous maybe

"Oh no," I say, "he's just a friend is all," I tell her

"Oh?" She asks with her curiosity peeked

"Besides," I sigh, "he's interested in Someone else."

"Oh?" She inquires almost hopeful

"She's taken however," I add

Astoria falls silent at this and takes a long sip of her butterbeer as she stares at the table; it's clear that she likes Crabbe, so why does stay with Draco if she's not happy with him? I could ask, but it's not any of my business or my place to; not to mention she'll probably become defensive and take it the wrong way...

"Here you two are," Theo says sitting down next to me

"Took you idiots long enough," Astoria snaps at Draco as he stands before our table

"Let's go Stori," he says

"Would you like another butterbeer Mima?" Theo says as if they're having some weird competition
