Ginny and Athena had managed to convince Adeleine to go to lunch to eat something. The girl hadn't eaten anything since dinner the previous night and was absolutely starving.

It seems that Theo and Blaise were able to get Draco out of bed as well because he was sat at the Slytherin table with his head down to his plate, and fork playing with roasted potatoes.

His silver grey eyes met with her sapphire blue, but she was the first one to break the contact as she made her way to the Ravenclaw table. She couldn't have her mind think about Draco anymore and at that moment, she should just be enjoying lunch with her friends.

Draco on the other hand, had decided to continue torturing himself as he watched Adeleine attempt a smile with her friends. Athena loaded Adeleine's plate with food and he watched as she grabbed a strawberry tart from the dessert trays.

It automatically drew him to when he and Adeleine sat in the Astronomy Tower on their first date while they ate strawberry tarts and blueberries. It was a magical time when Marion Hart did not exist and the two could just be a couple freely.

Apparently Jackson Bleu had cracked a joke making Adeleine laugh which Draco had felt a spike of jealousy rush through him. He knew that Jackson was not a threat anymore, but then again did it matter? Whatever Draco and Adeleine had seemed to be through.

"Hey Draco" Marion took the seat next to him with a flirtatious smile.

Draco didn't look towards her, feeling disgust just being in the same proximity as her. He kept his gaze on Adeleine, noting that she hadn't worn any makeup today and her natural glow looked beautiful.

Marion attempted to put her arm on Draco and he immediately shoved it off. He knew that whenever they were in contact with each other, he tended to lose his mind and let Marion cloud his thoughts with her.

Her jaw clenched and she put on a tight-lipped smile, knowing that her plan of getting closer to Draco was failing. He knew that physical contact would enable her to have control of him so he was denying the physical contact.

A loud crash burst from the windows and flocks of owls swooped into the Great Hall to drop off mail. Many younger first years had gotten packages and letters from their presents. Draco had gotten a letter from his mother, just asking about how he was doing and what was going on in Hogwarts, regarding the Beauxbatons students coming to Hogwarts.

Theo walked to sit down, giving a wane smile to Marion and squeezing himself in between the two. Marion gave a grumble, but didn't protest and let Theo split them up.

As Jackson helped lighten the mood at the Ravenclaw table he caught the wicked eye of a Slytherin he was beginning to warm up to. Pansy Parkinson raised an eyebrow at his staring and sent him a smirk in which he blushed at.

The talks out on the balcony continued on and Jackson got to know Pansy more. She continued to smoke cigarettes, letting the smoke float through the wind and make witty retorts at his terrible jokes.

Polaris flew down onto Adeleine's arm. She unlatched the letter attached to her leg and unrolled the parchment. Immediately seeing the letter, she wanted to burn it.

Dear Adeleine,

I know that I haven't been the best father. I was a horrible person and I do not disregard my actions in the past. But you are still my daughter by blood no matter how much you do not want to be so I wanted to be the one to invite you to my wedding.

I am getting married on June 24th and I hope you will be able to attend. It's alright if you don't and I completely understand your reasons for doing so. I have invited your mother and brother. They both have said yes to the wedding and you are allowed to bring a guest of your choice. I hope you decide to come and I would love for you to meet my fiance.

She is a witch just like you and has magic. I know my views of magic were biased in the past, but now having to experience living with people that also have magic. She is amazing and her name is Pandora. She has a daughter that also goes to your school.

With lots of love, Dad

Adeleine physically wanted to gag at the letter. Of course during all of times she would receive a letter from her father that was an invitation to his wedding. She hadn't given the wedding a second thought before she had gotten the letter and could care less about her father getting remarried.

'With lots of love, Dad.'

Please, there was no love between the bonds of these two. There was absolutely nothing that could make Adeleine have some sort of loving relationship with her father. Sure, he could say that he loved her and was truly sorry for his past mistakes, but people lied all the time to her.

She could care less about his fiance and the daughter. She didn't care that he was replacing them with another family because they hadn't been his family in so long.

Maybe she was just sour because of the fight between herself and Draco. She was being bitter and allowing that bitterness to cloud her judgement. It seemed that the rest of her family members were attending the wedding so she might eventually be forced to go.

"What'd you get?" Ginny asked.

"Nothing important" Adeleine shrugged as she tossed the letter aside with not much care.

Ginny looked skeptical, but she nodded, allowing Adeleine to have her space and not pestering the poor girl. She gave a look to Athena, but Athena shrugged and left the girl alone.

"Hey, how are you doing?" Neville asked with a small smile making Adeleine smile at his precious face.

"I'm alright" she answered truthfully with a nod and spooned roasted potatoes into her mouth.

"You know I'm here for you, right?" Neville asked and Adeleine's face stretched into a grin at his words.

"I know and I love you for that" Adeleine replied and a blush covered Neville's cheeks.

Hannah walked with Justin Finch Fletchley and Susan Bones through the halls as they made their way to Hogsmeade. Justin was only walking there to purchase some sweets and then making his way back to the castle while Susan was meeting up for a date with Michael Corner.

"Did you do the Herbology homework?" Justin asked, making conversation between the Hufflepuff trio.

"Yeah I did. Neville helped me with it" Hannah answered with a nod, "If you're having trouble I could always ask him to help you out, maybe tutor?"

Justin nodded with a bright grin, "Definitely, I need all the help I can get."

Hannah nodded with a hum as she skipped her way down the snowy village. It was amazing how even during warmer days, the village remained covered in the beautiful white snow.

Justin and Susan split off from Hannah as she wandered around the village with glowing eyes. The village never failed to surprise her as new beauty arose.

"Hannah?" a voice from behind her questioned and she turned.

"Theo!" she shrieked with excitement as she walked towards the boy.

His cheeks were tinted pink from the cold and his nose was almost red. Hannah engulfed him in a hug before he could reply and he lovingly hugged her back.

"So, what are you doing here?" Theo asked as he pulled away from the hug.

"Just walking around. The village is beautiful during this time" Hannah said as she gazed at the icicles that decorated the roof tops.

Theo nodded and fiddled with his fingers. If he didn't do it now then he would never do it. So, he took a deep breath and faced Hannah who had a questioning look on her face.

"Do you want to maybe go to get butterbeer?" Theo asked, cursing himself that he couldn't fully ask her out on a date and he tip-toed by his words.

Hannah chuckled softly at his nervousness, "Just us two?"

Theo's face had begun to turn beat red and butterflies erupted in his stomach. He thought that maybe Hannah didn't want to get butterbeer with him and preferred a whole group, but that didn't make sense since the two had spent time together alone before.

"Erm... yeah" he said quietly after a minute and Hannah beamed.

The pair walked towards the Three Broomsticks and got a table in the corner, away from most people so they could have some alone time.

"Two butterbeers please" Theo ordered and the waitress gave him a wink before leaving.

Hannah grumbled something incoherently and Theo eyed the girl. Was Hannah jealous? He smirked inwardly at the thought and began to make conversation with her.

The two slowly drank their butterbeer as the day soon turned into night. The two hadn't even realized that the sun was already going down and that they had been talking for more than 4 hours.

"We're closing Mr.Nott" Madam Rosmerta sighed with a shake of her head as she continued to wipe down the wooden tables.

"Oh" Theo furrowed his brows and helped Hannah out of her seat. "Sorry, we'll be going."

Madam Rosmerta chuckled, "You two lovebirds have fun!"

Theo and Hannah both blushed at her words. Theo hadn't dropped Hannah's hand so the two were walking hand in hand together.

"Theo," Hannah said and Theo turned to her, "I had fun today."

"Me too," Theo agreed.

Awkward silence overtook them and Hannah shook her head with a smirk on her face.

"Theodore Nott" she stated and he suddenly got nervous, "When are you going to ask me out on a real date?"

Theo's throat went dry, "I-I what? I-I don't know."

Hannah chuckled as he became a stuttering mess and faced him. She cupped both his cheeks and gave a small smile.

"Just kiss me idiot" she said.

And he listened.

A/N: This chapter didn't contain much Draco x Adeleine action, but I really wanted Theo and Hannah to finally get together
