Touch [Theodore Nott]

Latch

I walked onto the train and there he was. Sitting across from Malfoy

"Theo" I stood in front of him

"Flora" he stood up, I couldn't even meet his eyes, I felt my blood boil with rage

"you don't write back to me for months and that's all you can say?" I didn't even want him to respond, I simply just walked away

I didn't even know where to sit Daphne was sitting across from them with Montague and Warrington

"You can sit with us" I heard as I passed a compartment

It was Ron Weasley, merlin did the boys tell him to be nice to me, I didn't really have an option either

"Thank you" I entered and it was Hermione ,Harry and him

"What mortal peril will the golden trio save us from this year" I asked crossing my legs

"The what?" Ron asked confused

"The golden trio" I smiled "That's what we all call you three"

"And why is that?" Hermione asked looking puzzled

"Oh come on each year somehow it's always you three saving everyone's lives" I gave a small laugh

Ron looked pleased with the name

I didn't really speak much to them, they had so much tension between Ron and Hermione I was expecting them to start snogging at any moment

"This is for you" A letter came

"Horace Slughorn" It read

"What is it?" Ron asked looking over at it at Harry's letter

"It's for tea on the train?" I was still confused on why I had gotten one

"Are you going?" Hermione asked

"Might as well just to see what it is" I got up and straighten myself

I was relived to see some others walking towards the back of the train. Even another Weasley got up

I walked with Harry soon joined by Longbottom

"Welcome in" He was an old large balding man

I sat down next to Blaise who was here as well, I shot daggers at McLaggen

I soon realize that we were here because we all had names in the wizarding world

"How are your brothers Ms. Burke" he finally got around to me

"Working in the Aurors department sir"

"Fine students both of them pleasure to teach" He smiled at me

"Thank you professor they've always talked highly of you" Which was true they loved Slughorn

The entire time we were all awkward and uncomfortable

"Are you going to talk to him" Blaise asked as we got us

"He owes me the apology his sorry arse can come to me" I marched off to the compartment

Ron noticed I was mad when I wouldn't relax my eyebrows

"Flora you're making it very hot in here" Hermione said and I could see the sweat on her forehead

"I'm sorry" I said forcing myself to relax

"Could I speak with you for a moment" Theo approached

"If you must" I got up and followed him

"I'm sorry I didn't answer your owls" he said looking straight into my eyes
