"What now?" I asked in a whisper trying to even my breathing.

"Now. . .I'm sorry I hurt you. . .I'm a prick-"

"I agree" I chuckled.

He rolled his eyes before adding, "Let me complete. . .I- Um no You- Er- Oh screw this! will you be my girlfriend Daphne?" He blurted and gave me a nervous expression.

"Yess!" I shrieked. He instantly picked me up by my waist and kissed my forehead.

"Finalllyyy!" Came a voice from behind us. George gently placed me down and turned to see Jackson standing there.

"Jack! It's bad to eavesdrop!" I smiled.

"And it's bad to ditch your date!" He smirked.

"Sorry. . ."

"Hush you idiot! I'm joking!" He shook his head, coming forward. "Look at little old Daphne! Now where's the badass?"

"You don't repeat my lines Flint!"

"I'm happy for you D. . .I couldn't tell Trace but I can tell you. . .I'm happy for- oh and Weasley! Don't worry, I handled Nott-"

"Thanks." George said and I looked from him to Jack in surprise.

"What hapenned?"

"Nothing much. . .let's just say he won't come where he's not wanted." Jack laughed.

I shook my head but didn't press the matter any further.

"Well I'll leave you two at it now. . .I have someone waiting for m-"

"One of your admirers?" I cocked up an eyebrow at him.

"Quite the opposite Daphne" He winked before returning to the hall.

"I need to go er- fix my makeup" I stuttered, looking at the ground.

George nodded and asked me to meet him outside the great hall.

I entered the bathroom only to find two people snogging near the sink. One of them was in a tux.

"This is the girls bathroo-" I began but as I saw their faces. . .I stopped.

"God you two!! Blaise it's a girl's bathroom!!" I shrieked with a grin.

"You were crying?" They asked at the same time acting like they weren't just having a make-out session.

"Err- no. . .I mean yes. . . it's alright now."

"What happened?" Tracey asked in shock.

"A lot." I chuckled.

"You okay Daphne?" Blaise looked from me to Tracey.

"Oh you guys! Just continue your- whatever. .elsewhere! I need to fix this mess." I said, pointing at the smeared make up.
