blaise zabini is a party boy. no doubt about it. if you attend a party at hogwarts, you'll find blaise somewhere. a pure-blood slytherin with the looks, the money & the class to be anyone anywhere at any time. what with his mom once being the minister's right hand & his father being high up with the dark lord on the down low. blaise has anything he could ever want, & more. vada black, on the other hand, isn't as similar as one would think. a half-blood slytherin with only one living biological parent & a sea of family problems to go along with it. she does have the privilege of sitting upon a black family fortune but she refuses to let it be known. with her mother dead at the hands of the dark lord & her muggle father denying her existence, her uncles - regulus & sirius black - are all she has left. but when the beginning of 6th year rolls around, vada is faced with the the possibility of her worst fear coming true: having someone else to lose. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "hey, v!" i turn my head to see the one & only blaise zabini waltzing his way toward the couch i was on. "v?" i shot him a confused glance. he smiled. "short for vada." "i knew that dipshit," i swatted his arm. "hey, b." he turned to me as he sat down, stretching his arm over my shoulders. "b?" "short for blaise." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ unbeknownst to the two, a certain dark lord was ramping up in the shadows with one mission in his book: dispose of the one girl who threatened everything he'd ever built. vada black.
