Huge thanks to everyone who followed; the joy I get from knowing someone out there likes my work and isn't obligated to is immense. But don't forget to review, because I absolutely LOVE those, too! I think last chapter had the most swearing in it out of the six I have written, so it's going to be a LOT less vulgar from here on out (probably). I for some reason feel like there's just a bunch of filler chapters leading up to my current favourite (6) so please stick around at least till then, 'cause I really want people to read it.


"Hey, look," Dominique whispered to Lily. She pointed to the Slytherin table. "There's your boyfriend."

"Shut up, you bitch!" Lily hissed back. "I think that's gonna be your new nickname: Bitch."

"Looks like someone's not over last night yet."

"Looks like someone's still a bitch," Lily mocked back.

Dominique shrugged off Lily's comment like the rest of them – which she had received practically every other second since their little dare – and strode up to the Malfoy, with Lily following a few feet behind.

"Hey, Scorpius!" Dominique greeted, sitting down across from him. Lily reluctantly took the seat next to her.

Scorpius nodded to Dominique but stared for a second or two at Lily. "What's Potter doing here?" he asked.

"I'm a Slytherin, too, you know," Lily replied.

"Oh, you are? Have fun with that."

Lily could tell he wasn't even paying attention. But she might as well yell at him.

"I may be a Potter, but I still was sorted into Slytherin, have shared a common room with you for the past five years, and have sat next to my cousin every meal, even when that led to sitting next to you. If you can notice that Dominique is Slytherin, why can't you notice I am?" When she was finished with Malfoy, she thought, What the heck? Why not? and shot Dom a death glare that seemed to get the intended message across: You are a total bitch. But she just rolled her eyes in response.

"So, Scorp," Dom smiled at him. Lily looked at her asking with her eyes, What are you doing? You decided today is going to be the day you talk to him this year? Lily knew her cousin got along with the Malfoy, but the bitch could at least have the courtesy to not talk to him the one day Lily was with her.

But Dominique just flipped her hair, giving Lily a face full of nothing but silvery-blonde hair, and no chance of seeing the, I need to talk to you later, look Dom gave Scorpius. When Lily finally got all the hair out of her face, she was seething mad.

Standing up, she said, "Bitch, Malfoy. See you later. Bye."

"Where you going?"

"Somewhere I'm respected." But she didn't have any real friends in Slytherin, so off to the Gryffindor table to sit with her family it was.

As she walked off, Malfoy asked, "What's her problem?"

"I'll tell you later," Dominique replied.
