No one in Slytherin eats breakfast in the hall the day of the quidditch match. Everyone is to busy making signs and getting dressed in the greenest clothes we own. Emma, Walter, and I use the sheets off of the spare bed in Walters room and we turn it into a huge "FLY DRACO FLY" sign using green and silver paint that I manage to grab from the muggle arts classroom on the sixth floor.

"Hullo, Emma." A males voice says from behind us. We turn around and Adrien Pucey is standing there looking at us all. "Mind if I walk you to the game today?"

Emma looks at both Walter and me who shrug our shoulders. Emma turns back around to look at Adrien, "I suppose that's alright." She gets up from her sitting position on the floor, "I'll save you guys a seat." She says to us before her and Adrien awkwardly walk away side by side.

"Three galleons that she's going to be crying about him again in two weeks time," I say to Walter once the two are out of earshot.

"I'll give it a month. I have faith this time, they've both grown up a bit." Walter stands up and puts his hand down to help me get up off the floor.

"She's been obsessed with a new boy every week for the past two months. First, it was Fred, then Cedric, then Miles, then Roger, back to Fred, sprinkle in a little bit of Graham, and end it off with Oliver Wood and you'll be caught up to yesterday." I reach down and grab the sign we made. Walter takes the other side and we start to fold it in on itself.

"Okay but maybe she was just deflecting all her feelings for Adrien onto other boys?"

I take the now-folded sign from Walter and sigh, "Or she's just trying to get over her French boy if he even exists."

"Did you see that? That stupid girl walking with my Adrien! She's going to pay for that I swear on it." Clarissa says very loudly to Miriam and Henrietta as we pass by them. "And there goes her muggle loving best friends, what a waste of space."

Walter tries to stop me by grabbing my arm but it doesn't work. I pull my wand out from my back pocket and in one quick movement, I step towards her and jam my wand under her jawbone. The whole common room goes silent. Clarissa closes her eyes tight and starts to shake, Miriam and Henrietta step away from her. "Say it again," I whisper into her ear. Clarissa whimpers and shakes her head no. "Say it fucking again Clarissa." I jam my wand harder against her throat. "Talk about me or my friends ever again and I'll split you down the middle, do you understand me?" she nods like a hundred times before I step away from her and remove my wand from her neck.

Clarissa wipes a tear off her face quickly and rushes out of the common room, Miriam and Henrietta follow close behind her. I slowly turn around looking at the rest of the students in the common room. "Anyone else have anything to say about who I decide to spend my time with?" No one says anything, instead, they go back to whatever they were doing and start quietly talking amongst themselves again.

I storm out of the common room, Walter follows me. As soon as the door closes behind us I slump on the wall and look at Walter exhausted. "I can't believe I just did that." I kind of laugh to myself. "I really just told someone I would split them in half."

Walter with a look of confusion, amusement, and horror plastered on his face just stares at me as I have a total laughing fit to myself. "It was pretty terrifying if I'm being honest. You looked a lot like those pictures of your mum that the Daily Prophet puts out every once in a while."

I take a deep breath and wipe a tear from my eye, "I felt like I was connected to her for a minute too. I didn't like it." I lean back over my hands on my knees. "Whoo okay, let's go watch the match." I stand up fully and link my arm around Walters and together we head out into the field behind the castle.
