HL: I will continue with Memories Lost take a break, then go back to this.
Summary: Cass gets on her last nerves with Zambini, being stuck with him in house isn't bad enough, she finds out he likes her, but that could pose a problem, since her boyfriend is the tough guy of the school, or…was. Gia can't focus in Potions, because all she's thinking about is Marcus then Zambini, who had hurt her, but she can't seem to take her mind off of either of them. Row starts writing to both Gia and Cass, getting Cass her third detention in a day, and getting Gia stuck in a detention with Snape that night. When Zambini confronts Cass again, this time in the Common Room, something happens between them, but then a very pissed figure bursts through breaking it up….the first day back…and there's already Chaos in the Slytherin house.
Disclaimer: Same as last.
Cass walked quickly to the Astronomy tower sitting down, then slumped over her books, "It's only the first day and Cass Brook is already tired." A male voice said to the right of her, "Mister Zambini." She said lifting her head slightly. Blaise smirked at her, "Shut up." She said putting her head down as he glared, "How's your dragon doing these days?" He asked as Cass rolled her eyes, "Why do you care?" She asked as she heard him sit next to her she rose an eyebrow at him. Blaise smirked at her again, "Just wondering if you two were still together." "We've been together for three years Zabini, damn are you un observant." She said as Blaise suddenly leaned foreword kissing her, her eyes widened and she shoved him away, "WHAT THE BLOODY HELL!" She said falling out of her seat staring at him. "Hey, Blaise, good thing Draco isn't here, or there'd be trouble." She heard one of the boys behind her say as the rest of the group chuckled.
Cass wiped her mouth quickly, "What…the bloody….hell, Blaise." She said as her chest rose and fell as her heart was seriously in her ears, "I know your probably still mad at me for dumping Gia Benson, but…" "YOU CHEATED ON HER YOU ASSHOLE!" She yelled as Blaise smirked, "Yeah, your point being?" She narrowed her eyes, "You make me sick…" Blaise smirked again, "Good, well then, I suppose you don't mind me saying that I've liked you since first year?" Cass looked at the door, hoping, waiting for Draco to walk in that moment when he said that and beat Blaise's ass, "I don't think your 'Bad Faith' will be here." He said smirking as Cass shot a glare at him. She hated it when they said he was 'bad faith' which is what it literally meant in French, that she had taken since she was in first grade, "Shut up Blaise. Draco isn't Bad Faith anyway, even though that's what it means in French." She hissed as he glared at her, "Don't you get smart with me, because, I'm smarter then you'll ever be." "Oh really? Is that true Blaise? Who almost flunked fifth year? Who pulled you out of that spot by helping you study? Me, was it not?" "You were close to flunking also." He hissed as Cass rolled her eyes, "I'm still smarter then you. So there." She said crossing her arms over her chest.
Pansy, who had been stuck in the class with Cass which was unlucky for her, smirked at Blaise then nodded, "Cass, you do know I've liked you since first year right?" He asked as her eyes widened and she suddenly felt sick, "Uh…" Pansy smirked, "Yeah, he has, he was just to afraid to tell you. Did you know he was going to ask you to dance at the Yule Ball in fourth year? But Draco got to you first? He's been dying to tell you." Pansy said as Cass started to inch away from Blaise, "No, I didn't know that, now that I do know…you can stay away from me." She said as the teacher walked in the class got back into their assigned seats. Cass looked beside her to see Draco's empty seat. The teacher started roll call, "Zabini, Blaise." "Here." "Parkinson, Pansy." "Here." "Brook, Cassandra." Cass shook her head, "Here." She said as the teacher looked down at his list again, "Malfoy, Draco." "He's sick sir." Cass said as the teacher nodded going through the other names.
Gia was trying to concentrate on what Professor Snape was saying ,but her mind kept wandering between thoughts of Marcus then Blaise. The day that Cass had told her that Blaise had been seen kissing Katie Bell, Marcus was there for her, hugging her, and calming her down to some extent. Marcus was always there for her, but Blaise and her had started going back out again for about a month when Row saw him kissing Pansy Parkinson. Cass, who had a deep hate for Pansy, had told Draco, who got pissed, went to find Blaise and kick his ass. That was before Cass and Draco had become an "item" the two weren't the best on the list, but they still stuck together, even during third year with the dementors around, Cass was a seeker on the Slytherin team at the time, and when she went to go after the snitch, following Harry, both had been attacked. Both had fallen over 100 feet, but Cass was put into a coma for about a week. After that experience, she became a beater. Her thoughts drifted back to Marcus when he had became captain during sixth year, Caddy had taken Cass's bat and as a bludger came flying, she swung aiming at Marcus, then claimed it was suppose to be aimed at Oliver. Cass was forced not to say anything, so she had to keep her mouth shut about it. Gia and Marcus had been friends then, but after Blaise, she had completely shut Marcus out of her life.
The only boy she allowed was Draco to talk to her, mostly because Cass had told her to, and mostly because Draco didn't talk to her most of the time. Her thoughts were broken by Professor Snape's voice, "Miss Benson, do you mind joining the class and not daydreaming?" He asked as she snapped out of her reverie, "Sorry Professor." She said as he started talking about what would be on their N.E.W.T's Gia started thinking about Marcus again and if they ever got married, NO! DON'T THINK ABOUT THAT! Focus on Professor Snape…Focus on him…the N.E.W.T's are what are going to get me out of this school… She thought to herself, but it was no use. Her thoughts kept shifting between Marcus Flint and Blaise Zambini.
Row and the rest of the class where taking notes as Row pulled out her light blue diary that connected to both Gia's and Cass's diaries.
Hey, Cass, Gia, you guys there? (Row)
What! I'm trying to pay attention here! (Gia)
Reer, Gia calm down, god. (Cass)
Obviously your not if your writing in the diary and answering me. Anyway, Marcus is writing something…I think he's writing 'I love Gia' on his paper. (Row)
HAHAH! (Cass)

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! CASS! (Row)

No one answered back.

HEHEHE….oh, just to let you know, Gia and Row, Blaise told me that he liked me. (Cass)
DUN DUN DUN! (Row)

Nope, he doesn't need to know. (Cass)

Wow…that sounded wrong… (Cass)
OH SHUT UP! (Row)

Um…Harry…Herbology was this morning…(Cass)I meant Quidditch, when Olivia hit me with that bludger. (Harry)
AH HA! SO SHE PUT THE BLAME ON ME DID SHE! WELL I'LL SHOW HER! MWHAHAHAHAHAHA –cough- HAHAH! (Cass)
Uh….(Row)

NO! I'M NOT WRITING TO ANYONE PROFESSOR! (Gia)
SHIT! (Row, Cass, and Harry)
SEE YEA!(Cass)
BYE CASS! BYE HARRY AND GIA! (Row)
LATER! (Harry)Row quickly shut her diary as she swore she heard the other three closing theirs at the same time. Her eyes darted seeing the kids looking at her oddly. Marcus nudged her with his foot then rose an eyebrow, "Miss O'Brian, are you feeling alright?" Professor McGonagell asked the shaking and deathly white Row, "Yeah, I'm fine." She said as Professor McGonagell nodded then returned to teaching the lesson. She fiddled with her quill and stared at the feathers. Marcus looked at her a few times raising an eyebrow at her, and a couple of times poking her with the end of his quill.
As the lunch bell rang Marcus and Row walked to the Great Hall. As Row sat down she got a glare from Gia and Cass, "What?" She asked sitting down, "You got me my THIRD DETENTION TODAY!" Cass said narrowing her eyes, "Yeah, and I have detention with Snape." Gia said narrowing her eyes also. Row flinched, "Hey, not my fault." "Yes it was! You were the one writing to us!" Cass said as Professor Sprout walked over putting her hand on her shoulder, "Miss Brook." Cass scowled grabbing her books, stood, glared at Row, then followed Professor Sprout out of the Great Hall to her detention. Gia rolled her eyes, "I have mine tonight. Lucky me." She said as Row snickered, "Have fun." She said as Gia glared, "Shut up you stupid git." Row stuck her tongue out at her as Marcus shook his head. The three ate in silence, they had no idea where Crabbe, Goyle, or Draco where so they left it be.
"I'm going back to the common room for a break." Gia said standing after she was done eating, "You coming Row?" "Nah, I think I'll just sit out in the courtyard. It is a nice day after all." She said as Gia shrugged, "Suite yourself. Flint?" Marcus looked up, "Uh, well, I don't know…if you want me too…" He said as Gia nodded. He blinked, she never wanted to be in the common room with him, by herself. "See you two luvbirds later." Row said smirking as Gia flipped her off as she walked away. Row laughed while drinking her juice.
"Uh…Gia…" "Yes?" "Is there a reason you wanted to have me in the common room with you?" Marcus asked as Gia looked at him, "Even though we haven't been the best of friends since fifth year, Flint, I still like your company, sometimes." She said with a shrug as he blinked at her. When they came to the common room and said the password then stepped into the room, it was completely empty, and void of all human life. Gia sat on the couch and Marcus smirked, "You do know where your sitting right?" "Uh…" Gia blinked at him as he chuckled, "Where Cass and Draco…" "OH BLOODY HELL!" She jumped up and sat on the arm chair next to it as Marcus laughed. "I'm kidding Benson." He said as she glared and threw the green pillow at him, "Thanks Flint." She said opening her Potion's book, "Studying?" "We have our…" "I know, I know, besides, Cass is helping half the dorm study." He said flopping down on the other armchair. Gia rolled her eyes, typical, Cass's mom is or was related to their Potion's teacher, so she had to help out whoever was having trouble in Potions class.
Like Hermione, Cass had gotten good grades in most of her classes, with a less stupid price. They had caught Hermione in the act of "seducing" a teacher into giving her an A+. (A/N: I hate Hermione with a passion, so there WILL be Hermione bashing, if you r a Hermione fan I despise you --) Cass had tried so hard the next few months without telling Harry, but it slipped. When she told Harry and Ron had lost their appetite and Cass had walked back over to the Slytherin table with a smirk on her face, then had busted out laughing. Gia shook her head smirking, "It's always like Cass to be the 'helping hand'." She said as Marcus laughed, "Oh yeah, she 'helps' alright." Gia giggled, "Helps boys into bed." "MARCUS!" Gia said wide eyed laughing as he smirked. "That was mean!" "Well, you do know it's true, after all…you did stay with her for the past three summers." "Yeah, but what's that got to do with anything?" Gia asked as the door opened Marcus grabbed her and pulled her down, "Ouch!" "Shush!" Gia rose an eyebrow as she heard unmistakable voices, Cass and Blaise.
"What the bloody hell do you want now Blaise?" –Cass
"Relax Brooky. I'm not going to do anything." –Blaise
"Don't you ever insult my family name."-Cass
"Reer, how does your dragon put up with you?"-Blaise
"I thought I told you not to call him that.."-Cass
"Whatever. Besides, I'm sure your future father-in-law won't be too thrilled."-Blaise
"With what?"-Cass
"You do know he knows that I like you right?"-Blaise
"…..I thought Harry was kidding when he told me…."- Cass
"No. He overheard from Gia when she told Wood when she was in the Hospital Wing talking to him." Gia and Marcus exchanged glances as Cass went to sit down on the couch Marcus grabbed Gia as they quickly stood and ran towards the corner.
"Gia…that little…he hasn't said anything has he?" Cass asked looking at Blaise, she knew he was probably lying, like he usually did, but she didn't want to take any chances if he wasn't kidding with her. "Not that I know of." Blaise said as Gia poked her head out Marcus poked his out over hers. Blaise sat down beside Cass, "But you know…I don't think you'd mind the change with me would you?" He asked smirking as Cass's hazel eyes looked into his brown (I think they are brown not sure) eyes. Gia went to step out when Marcus went to grab her, Blaise had Cass on her back on the couch, when the door suddenly flung open Marcus yanked Gia back into the corner covering her mouth with his hand as Cass jumped Blaise landed one, right on her lips, "BLAISE! YOU STAY AWAY FROM HER!" Draco yelled as he went to tackle Blaise Marcus ran out and grabbed him, "LET GO!" "Draco stop!" Marcus said as the blond boy strained against his hold. Marcus held tightly as Draco struggled to get away from him. Cass shoved Blaise off of her and stood, "Draco, stop!" "You can't make me!" "JUST STOP YOUR GOING TO GET YOURSELF EXPELLED!" "I DON'T CARE!" "YOUR JUST LIKE YOUR FATHER!" "YOUR JUST LIKE YOUR MOTHER! A SLUT!" Before anyone knew what happened Cass's hand went flying across Draco's face as the sound rebounded off the walls Gia was wide eyed covering her mouth with her hand. She knew Cass hated being reminded of her mother, no matter how much she acted like her, or looked like her, no one dared tell her she was like her mother.
"How dare you…" She said with clenched fists, "HOW DARE YOU COMPARE ME TO MY MOTHER!" She yelled going to hit him again, but Gia grabbed her wrist. (A/N: None of this is true, I love my mommy both of them oO') Marcus was just as wide eyed as Gia was the last minute, because no one had slapped Draco before, or showed that they wanted to. Even though Hermione did punch him in third year, "Do you know why your staying with my cousin? Hm? Because, your mother didn't want you, she never did, and never will. Your damn lucky you ended up with Emily, and not my family, because I'm sure my father would of thrown you out into the streets, just like your mother did." Draco said ripping away from Marcus, walked foreword, past Cass, and punched Blaise full in the face before going upstairs, "THINK ABOUT THAT! BECAUSE YOU JUST MIGHT AS WELL NOT CARE ABOUT ANYTHING FOR NOW! SINCE YOU OBVIOUSLY DON'T CARE WHAT YOU COME OFF AS!" He yelled before slamming the boy's dorm door. Marcus looked up the stairs as Cass sat down on the couch, staring off into space.
Gia frowned sitting next to her, "Cass?" Cass didn't answer, she just stared off into nothing, "Cass, are you okay?" She asked putting her hand on Cass's shoulder, "He…he compared me to her. To HER Gia!" She said putting her face into Gia's shoulder and started to cry. Gia, surprised that she was crying, patted her on the back awkwardly to calm her down, "It's okay Cass…it'll be okay." She said as the wet tears stained her green shirt. Gia looked at Marcus who looked at Blaise, "Well, I better get him up to Madam Pomfrey." He said pulling Blaise up by the back of his collar, "Marcus…" He stopped and looked at Gia, "When you get back…can you talk to Malfoy? Please?" She asked with a frown on her face. Marcus sighed then ran a hand through his hair, "Alright, I'll talk to the stupid git for you." He said as Gia smiled then stood slightly and gave him a one armed hug, "Thank you." She said in his ear as he smiled then walked off with Blaise.
