"You're breaking it off with me?" Selena demanded glaring at the boy in front of her. He sighed and nodded his head avoiding looking at her, his gaze however was fixed on the floor.

"Things are different," His brown eyes finally meeting her grey stare. "I haven't felt the same in a while," he shrugged, she felt her chest tighten. She fought the tears that prickled in her eyes, suddenly the spacious train compartment felt tiny.

"We've been together nearly a year Damon and that's the best you can give me?" She fired at him, he just shrugged.

"I'm sorry Sel, but it's over," he stepped forward to hug her as a sob escape but she pushed him away his usually welcomed embrace. Sighing again he turned to exit the compartment, "Try and have a good break," was the last thing he said before leaving her to fall onto the seat and let out the sobs she'd been trying so hard to hold on. She wasn't sure how long she'd been in there crying when the door of the compartment opened.

"Malfoy what are you..." Selena quickly wiped her face and stood up looking at the intruder who'd caught her crying. James Potter, of all the people to find her, it had to be him. "Are you okay?" He asked softly much different to his usual cocky persona. Selena tried to nod, but fresh tears escaped and betrayed her as she started to cry again. Awkwardly James closed the compartment door and pulled her into a hug. She resisted at first before exhaustion from crying took over her and she leaned into him, he guided them back down into the seat and rubbed her back as she cried into his shoulder.

"Selena what's happened?" He said quietly after a few minutes.

"Damon," she croaked trying to hold in her emotions.

"What'd that tosser do?" He demanded pulling away from her slightly and turning her to face him.

"He broke up with me." She sniffled.

"Oh," he said she suddenly felt the weight of the situation, here she was crying in front of her best friend's older brother whom she'd barely had a conversation with over the years. James couldn't understand why Selena was so upset over a tosser like Damon, he was hardly worth the tears, although James wasn't close to her, she was a part of his life through Albus and thought she deserved more than what that git could give her.

She stood up, and wiped her face, "I'm sorry, I'm going to go." she said quickly, making her way out of the compartment before she could get all the way out she felt a hand on her elbow hold her back, she turned to him gaze questioning.

"He's an idiot Selena, doesn't know how good he had it, he'll regret It." He stated, hazel orbs staring into her grey eyes. Selena frowned at him, before rushing out of the compartment.

Taking a deep breath, before opening the compartment door she'd left earlier to talk with Damon.

Her brother was up with one look at her face and instantly by her side, "what's happened!" He demanded instantly knowing she'd been crying from her probably red and blotchy face.

"He broke up with him," she said sitting down next to Albus who wrapped his arm around her shoulders.

"Bastard," her brother hissed grabbing his wand and heading for the door.

"Scorpius, don't. I'm fine," she snapped at him grabbing onto his robes before he could get out.

"Yeah will the git deserves it regardless, I warned him when you started if you cried he's dead." He growled opening the compartment door just as some started yelling outside the compartment.

Selena jumped up and stuck her head out the door, she could see Damon standing in the hall with boils all over his face, yelling as he'd been hit with a jinx.

She followed the direction he was yelling in, to see James pocketing his wand glaring at Damon, his gaze met hers and softened before sending her a wink and walking off laughing with his friends.

Selena smiled to herself before heading back into the compartment to sit down.

"What's my brother got against Smith?" Albus ask her gently, she could see a curious but furious gaze in his eyes. Although Albus loved his brother, he hated competing and being compared to him. Selena knew that's why he chose to be in Slytherin and why he'd befriended the Malfoy twins, to stand out from his brother.

"He found me in the compartment after Damon left," Selena shrugged truthfully looking out the window, missing the glances between Albus and her brother. "Don't get involved with him Sel," Albus almost demanded.

"I'm not Albus," Selena bit back, as the train pulled into the station, she grabbed her stuff and marched off. She felt guilty for snapping at Albus and slowed down for him to catch up. She knew how insecure he was about people using him to get to James, or being friends with him because of James.

"You'll be staying for the wedding," Albus asked as they stood on the platform, looking around for their parents.

"Course mate,'" Scorpius nodded, "Can't believe we were invited,"

"Teddy's family Scor," Selena rolled her eyes at her brother.

"Barely have you seen how awkward Dad is around him," Scorpius shrugged.

Selena hugged Albus and kissed his cheek, "see you soon," she said before walking off, her brother quick to follow her.

Selena frowned as she only saw her mother waiting for her on the platform, she glanced up at Scorpius, who was grinning at their mother, before hugging her tightly. Selena rolled her eyes, her brother was such a mummy's boy.

"Where's dad?" Selena asked, not missing her Mother's pained look as she let go of her brother and pulled her into a hug. She remembered back to the night before they left for term, her parents had been arguing the worst she'd ever heard, after they went to bed. She recalled it had to do with a picture, her mother found in his desk draw of a woman from what she could make out.

"He's at home working, he's been so busy lately he couldn't spare a moment away," she said sternly. Selena just nodded and held onto her Mother before apparating.
