OLIVIA SCAMANDER
once we'd finished eating we were set free to go to our dorms. i tried my very hardest to run to my room but of course i was stopped

"Olivia!"
i turned around to see Oli there with his posy of Slytherins, Draco Malfoy being one of them.
"yeah?" i shot a very weak smile
"are you alright?" he asked
"I'm fine... why?"
"well with what happened before we left... and just now, you seem off..." he placed a gentle hand on my shoulder as his eyes glistened
"I'm okay Oli. I'm actually just looking for Fred, have you seen him?" i asked, pretending to look around for my current boyfriend - yes... I know i have a crush on Draco, quite a big crush but, being with Fred right now seems right.
"no sorry." Oli let out a small smile, showing his pearly white teeth
"ok, well i'll see you tomorrow then?" i was still looking around
"probably not.." he began to walk away, his posy following him - well besides Malfoy. Just as I was about to talk to him a pair of warm, comforting arms wrapped around my waist.

"hey trouble"
"hi Freddie" i smiled
"what you up to tonight?" he asked
I looked at Malfoy, who was getting uncomfortable at the sight
"I- uh I need to un pack my stuff, you can sneak in for a bit if you want" i shrugged
"sounds good" he smirked
i shook my head with a slight laugh and looked over at where Malfoy was, though he wasn't there anymore. i sighed deeply before Fred and I started to walk towards the Hufflepuff common room.
we got to the door and i went in by myself first, to check how busy the common room itself, it wasn't to bad, Hannah was there.

"han!" i called her over to me
"yeah?" she smiled
"distract everyone." i said briefly, but she shot me a odd look for a few seconds before she realised
"yeah, it wont last long though"
"as look if its long enough for me to get him in"
she nodded and went back to the group of people she was with, she gathered them closely to her so they wouldn't be able to see Fred.
i instantly ran back to the door, grabbed Fred's hand and yanked him all the way through to my bedroom.

"Jesus crist... you know no one cares if they see me here? its only the professors that care" he said with a laugh as he flopped on my bed, almost crushing Nemo
"some people here like to snitch, they have been snitching on Cedric and Cho, so I'm not taking any chances" I shot him a 'i know what i know' look and flipped my case onto the floor. I pulled out the things at the top, my washbag, laptop and my music/drawing sheets, I placed my washbag on the floor and got up to put my laptop and sheets on my desk.
TEN MINUTES LATER
"do you have to do this now" Fred wined
"yes Freddie, I'll never get to it otherwise" I chuckled, i heard him groan loudly and flop down on the bed again.
i carried on putting the little things away before i got to my wardrobe. I started to hang my clothes back up but i started to get fed up with going back and fourth to my wardrobe and the case. i sat on the floor, pulling things out and placing them onto my lap, i heard Fred chuckle and move around
"come on, sit up" he grabbed under my arms and pulled me up. once I was stable he let go and pushed me closer to the wardrobe
"I'll hand you the clothes and you put them in, Alright?" he said with that cheeky smile
"ok" I smiled back. then he started to hand me all the clothes I had left, at to be fair it was over much quicker than it would of been with me struggling.

"thanks for that" I said
"honestly, its no problem" he replied walking off to my bed
"okay, I'll just go and change quickly"
I grabbed the pair of Nike shorts and Fred's t-shirt I'd put out as i was unpacking and skipped to the bathroom, taking my washbag with me. i changed quickly then ran back into the bedroom, Instantly throwing myself to Fred's side.

"well, uh hello there" he kissed my forehead
i didn't say anything but cuddled into his side
"are you asleep already?" he asked
"no, I just enjoy the comfort of you being here.. and the silence" i sighed
"Last time i went to yours it was dead silent there, what's different?" his voice had gone from being playful to serious all of the sudden.
"oh, no," I stiffened "nothing"
"Olivia, baby. I know when you lie" he held onto my hips and pulled me up and spun me around, so i was looking at him. "is something going on at home?"
"pfft. Don't be so stupid" I sent out such a fake laugh "I'd of told you"
"no you wouldn't. you'd tell Cedric, you really wouldn't of told me"
"Fred..." i frowned
"Olivia.. tell me"
"Father" i said very lowly, he could hardly hear me
"your dad?"
i nodded
"what's he doing?"
"nothing, bad really. he just doesn't like me, so he treats me like shit. I block his shouting out, with music and stuff, but sometimes i cant. I mean he doesn't like Theseus or Newt very much, but they are braver than me." my eyes teared up, but I made sure they didn't fall.
"you can cry Love" he pulled me into his chest
"I shouldn't, it shows weakness"
"weakness? Liv it shows you have emotions" he kissed my forehead again "here" he laid down on the bed, laying me on his chest "Go to sleep, and if you want to talk about it, we can tomorrow. Ok?" he showed me a little smile.
"ok" I smiled back, finally letting those little tears fall...
