"She's fucking insane" Athena said to Ginny, "I mean if Addy didn't stop me I would totally be bashing her head in the wall right now."
"We should just do it anyway," Ginny added and Athena nodded in agreement.
The two were going to the library because Ginny had an assignment to complete while Athena was just tagging along to be with her friend. Athena could not give any shits about her school work when she was busy sketching her designs.
"Look at her," Athena said, causing Ginny to bring her head up from her parchment. "It's like she's plotting something."
"That's because she is" a voice interrupted the two of them.
Athena and Ginny were met with the face of Jackson Bleu. He took a seat at their table uninvited and began to speak.
"What are you talking about?" Athena asked, "I mean we were just joking, kinda."
"She's planning something and it's gonna be big. She's been obsessed with this for a long time" Jackson said and Ginny furrowed her brows.
"A long time? She's only met us for a month now" Ginny replied confusedly, her brows furrowed and turned to Athena who merely shrugged, allowing Jackson to continue speaking.
"She knows all the wealthiest people of the Wizarding World. It's just based upon the target she chooses and obviously she wants to choose someone of her own age range with the maximum amount of money in their Gringotts account" Jackson explained and Ginny nodded along with an understanding.
"So she chose Draco Malfoy after the war was over because he had just recently such a high status and popularity."
Ginny interrupted him, "So you're telling me that this absolute psycho bitch has been planning this for over a year now?"
Jackson bit his lip and nodded, "Yeah she has."
"And no one knew?" Ginny cried, bewildered.
Jackson nodded again, "Then she had been planning. At first I thought it was the greatest stroke of luck when the Beauxbatons corridor blew up, but now I suspect foul play."
Ginny and Athena both gasped at the revelation. Suddenly, many things had begun to make much more sense.
They had always wondered what Marion's obsession was with Draco and Addy's relationship and now they knew. She could care less about Adeleine and only wanted Draco for his money. Adeleine was merely an obstacle in the way because Marion hadn't prepared for there to be a girlfriend since at that time, Draco Malfoy held such a reputation.
"I think it was her who blew up the corridors and I think that she did it so we deliberately had to be transferred to Hogwarts" Jackson stated seriously. "It was definitely her who planted the bracelet in Addy's trunk."
Ginny grimaced at the mention of the bracelet, remembering all the drama that it brought upon everyone.
"Why are you telling us all this?" Athena asked, skeptical of the boy because he was Marion's step-brother. "Don't you fancy Adeleine? Why do you want to get her and Draco together?"
"Well their already together 'Thena" Ginny corrected and Athena stuck her tongue out childishly.
"You know what I meant!"
"I admit," Jackson shook his head disdainfully. "I did fancy Adeleine, but Malfoy loves her. Anyways, there's someone else that I've taken a liking to. In some ways she's like Adeleine, but she's more carefree and spunky."
"Aww" Athena and Ginny both cooed at the way Jackson spoke about this mystery girl.
Jackson blushed, but continued to speak about what they were talking about before he would drone on and on about Pansy.
"Anyways, I have no clue what she's planning, but I just thought you guys should know seeing as you're her best friends" Jackson spoke with a small shrug and a little smile.
"Thank you for telling us Jackson," Ginny said, looking into the boy's eyes, "Truly."
Jackson beamed at the red haired girl, "No problem."
"Now I have someone I need to meet" Jackson got up from his seat at the table. "See you whenever."
"Is it this mystery girl?" Athena asked, wiggling her eyebrows teasingly.
"Possibly" Jackson answered with a blush staining his cheeks.
Ginny and Athena both giggled like 14 year old girls as Jackson walked away from the table. They both had just received a load of information and they didn't know what to do with it all.
"Athena," Ginny said, calling for her attention.
"Hm?" Athena asked, blinking her eyes repeatedly like she was about to doze off.
"Do you think we should tell Adeleine?"
"I don't see why not" Athena shrugged indifferently and Ginny could tell Athena wasn't giving it much thought.
"Really? Cause I don't think we should" Ginny disagreed and that caused Athena to snap awake.
"What?! Are you crazy?" Athena asked. "Why wouldn't we tell Addy?"
"Because," Ginny reasoned, "Right now she and Malfoy were rebuilding their relationship. They don't need extra pressure on top of that. They just need to be with each other while we figure all of this shit out."
Athena nodded warily. She agreed to the part where Addy and Draco were just rebuilding their relationship and didn't need all the added stress with Marion, but she felt like that they should still be aware about what they were doing, even if they didn't involve themselves.
"But shouldn't we at least tell them a little bit so they know some part of what's happening?" Athena asked.
"I think we should keep it to ourselves for now and help Jackson. No ones gonna believe us if we have no evidence. We have to gather evidence first and then we'll tell them" Ginny spoke determined and Athena nodded in agreement.
"It's gonna be hard to keep a secret from her though" Athena commented and Ginny agreed
"But it's for her."

Jackson Bleu walked towards the Slytherin tower in search of his dark haired princess. They were meeting on the same balcony as always.
"Pansy?" he asked and the girl turned to him with a cigarette in hand.
"Bleu" she greeted with a nod and took another hit of the cigarette.
"So, how are you?" he asked, slightly nervous and Pansy chuckled.
He always asked her how she was every time they met up. Sometimes Jackson just went to the balcony for some silence and she was there.
"Fine" she answered, "That pop quiz in Transfiguration was a bitch though."
"Yeah" he chuckled in agreement.
"Want a hit?" she asked like she always did.
"No thanks" he responded.
"You sure?"
He nodded.
"Alright, your loss" Pansy shrugged and took another hit. "Have you ever even smoked before?"
Jackson blushed, shaking his head no. Pansy cracked a smile and licked her tongue across her white teeth.
"Want to try?" she asked him.
He gulped, unsure of his decision. The angel on his shoulder told him no because smoking was terrible for your lungs, but the devil in his shoulder told him that he should try it. There was no harm in trying it once and never doing it again.
"Yes" he breathed out and Pansy's lips curled into a smirk.
Pansy raised her hand under Jackson's chin and lifted his head up, tilting it slightly. She took a hit of the cigarette and leaned forward to Jackson.
The smoke transferred from her mouth to his and he inhaled the smoke. He could feel the effects slightly, but whatever she smoked was not that strong.
Their faces were centimeters apart, even as the smoke was cleared. Jackson's eyes had an innocent look in them when Pansy's lips curled into a soft smile and she pulled away from him.
Dazed, he hadn't even realized that his face hadn't moved from the position. He wouldn't lie, she was expecting her to kiss him or vice versa.
"Come on, you didn't think I would make it that easy, right?" Pansy cockily questioned, her smirk teasing Jackson.
Jackson felt nothing, but utter love for the girl because she was so peculiar in a way that only him knew about. He was the only person that saw even the slightest of vulnerability within her.
He didn't know about her obsessive crush on Draco Malfoy. Everyone just looked at her as insane or crazy, which in truth she was, but no one even understood why.
Pansy had loved Draco since she first met him. She loved the way he looked, the way he spoke, his authority over people, and she loved the way he smelled. But did she really enjoy those things or was it her mind tricking her?
Before the war, the two were set to be in a marriage arrangement since they were born. The Parkinson's and the Malfoy's had signed a contract that their children would marry so Pansy knew that she would want to at least like her further husband.
She spent so much time trying to convince herself that she was in love with Draco Malfoy, that she might have gone a little bit overboard and that carried on, even when the contract was burned.
But sitting on the balcony, smoking cigarettes with Jackson Bleu, Pansy Parkinson felt free with the boy. The brown haired boy with the innocently childish glow in his eyes made her heart melt and knew her for her.
"I'll make you fall in love with me Parkinson" Jackson told her cheekily and Pansy blushed furiously, but tried to mask it by taking another hit.
"Is that a threat Bleu?" she blew the smoke out from her cherry lips.
"No, it's a promise" he smirked at the girl before him.
