Narrator POV
It has been a week since the classes started, and the rumor running on the ancient hallways was that Anthony was going to have a date with Katherine.
"Do you think Draco knows about it?" Pansy asked, biting her nail, nervously. She was with Blaise, Louis, Crabbe and Goyle outside the Great Hall and a girl had just told them about the rumor.
"Probably. He was one of the firsts persons in our year to come for breakfast." Louis said.
"Shit, he must be in the worst of the moods." Blaise groaned.
"Maybe he doesn't know. He's not really a talking person." Goyle said.
"True, once he said he hated talking to dumbasses when I asked why he was so quiet.""So we should just ask him, like, play it cool and see if he's good."
"Really great idea Blaise, but how would we know if he knows?"
"Simple, if he's not hexing or barking at anyone, he doesn't know." he winked at Pansy."Yeah, I liked that. But if he doesn't know, we won't be the ones to say. We will try our best to hide it from him. It will totally work." Louis said, cheerfully.
"Before we go there, remember, be subtle. We don't want him getting suspicious." she said, staring deeply into Crabbe and Goyle's eyes.Draco was seated on the end of the slytherin table alone when his five friends got in, each one seeming more scared than the other.
"Hey, mate. Did you sleep well?" Blaise asked, patting Draco's back with a suspicious expression. The blond boy frowned and swallowed the last bite of his sandwich.
"Yes.""How are you doing?" Louis asked, glancing quickly at the others.
"Fine. What's up on your arses today?"
'Nothing, just checking on our favourite Malfoy." Pansy smiled cheerfully, seating across from him, clearly the only who could actually act."Have you heard any rumors?" Crabbe asked.
"Any of them about a certain girl?" Goyle added. Pansy slammed her fists on the table, Blaise squeezed his eyes shut and shook his head, while Louis was so angry he was close to start barking at them.
"Are you fucking dumb? Did you hear anything we said? Fucking twats.""What is happening?" Draco asked, trying to understand. All of them sighed and looked at each other trying to silently decide who was going to break the news.
"There is this rumor going on about Katherine and this guy Anthony..." Pansy started.
"He's taking her on a date tomorrow."
"Something about a picnic. Super boring, you could do better." Blaise tried to cheer him up."Hm. Nice." he said after a few seconds, his voice husky.
"Nice?" Pansy frowned "Are you okay with this?""I don't think he understanded, guys. She, your Katherine, is going out on a date with a guy Anthony, who is not you." Goyle said.
"A romantic date, girlfriend and boyfriend kind of date. Like you should be doing with her, if you were still her boyfriend." Crabbe finished, really believing he was doing something."Shut up, both of you. Just shut the fuck up." Louis said.
"It's okay. Thank you Crabbe and Goyle for your... helpful information." he nodded, gripping his fork so tightly he was about to break it into half "If you excuse me, I'm leaving. I don't want to be late for potions." he said calmly, standing up.They watched as his friend walked out of the Great Hall.
"He handled it better than I expected." Blaise said.
"Maybe he's over her."
"No, just wait." Louis said sighing, tiredly taking a bite of a peach.Less than five seconds later, a loud yelling could be heard from outside the room.
"MOVE OUT MY WAY, YOU FILTHIEST PRICK!" and then, a first year gryffindor came running with a scared expression on his face."There it is." Louis added.

It was night, and the halls were almost entirely empty, except for a few prefects and some students.
