I have been lying in James's bed for what feels like forever. No one has come in, and James barely leaves my side. We haven't talked about last night after this morning. We hardly talk at all, even. We have just been enjoying each other's presence. We have cuddled and just been with each other. It is adorable. I never thought James and I would be like this again after what happened with Mallory. But it's nice. I know I am in love with James, but he doesn't deserve me. I am a death eater, and he is a blood traitor after all. How can we make this work? We might need to talk about this together as humans. We are separate people with separate minds that need to grow and develop. That might be before we end up together.
"Do you ever think things could work out for us again?" James asks me. "I don't know they might, but not right now; we need to grow and become new people and find ourselves again before that could happen," I say to him. He nods. We just lay there on our sides, looking at each other. He gently puts a hand to the side of my face and caresses it. I scoot closer to him, and he wraps his arms around me. I put my face in his chest and fall asleep just like that.

I have been looking for Lyra everywhere. I literally haven't seen her all day. I am on my last hope of assuming she is still in the castle. I walk straight up to Sirius. "Black, where is Lyra?" I ask. He looks up. "Nice to see you too, Taylor; how you been?" He says with a smirk. "Not funny, Black. I'm trying to find Lyra. Do you know where she is?" I ask again. I am starting to get annoyed at him. "Don't worry, she is in our dorm with James. He brought her in last night won't tell us why, though. But she is safe, don't get your knickers in a twist." He says. "You never had any effect on my knickers Black," I say in disgust and walk away.
"AWWWW DOES TAYLOR NOT WANT OUR SECRET TO GET OUT," He yells. I freeze. I turn around on one heel and stalk straight up to him. I slap him across his too-happy face. Everyone in the great hall stops and stares at us. His head is still crooked to the side, and he holds his jaw. "Don't you ever talk about that ever again. It meant nothing to the both of us, and you know it," I say. Lupin is looking directly at me in shock. He then looks back at Sirius and tries to figure out what is going on. "Pads, what are you talking about?" Lupin asks. "Oh, so you are embarrassed about it too as well, Black. Let me tell you everything." I say with a smirk.
I shove Pettigrew to the side and sit down. "So since Black is too pussy to tell you, I will," I say and smile. "So you guys already know that Black and I come from very high Pureblood families, the scarred 28 to be exact. So you also know Lyra and Parkinson were supposed to be arranged married, but he's a cheating asshole, so we drop him as she should have. But Lyra's parents had been planning this for far longer than she knew about. But they also needed to get someone for Sirius. That's where my parents stepped in. They had set us up to be married as soon as we turned 18. But of course, Black had to go and get himself disowned as normal. So then my parents set me up with Alexandar, and I love him more than I ever could you, Black." I say and sneer at him. "Right back at you, Flint," He says. "But anyway, that is it for Black and mines story. Really a nightmare." I say. I get back up and just walk away. I turn around. "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell Lyra I am looking for her, Please," I say and then continue walking away. Those boys are idiots.
