HL: Okay this is the third chapter that's going to be re-done because it's kind of confusing in the old Ch. 3 because it goes from Draco being mad at Cass to them going out again then it goes to Christmas break skipping the dance.
Summary: With Cass and Draco mad at each other the silence starts to make the group uneasy, plus some secrets are starting to show. Row has two boys hot on her tail, Gia and Marcus start to break some ice at least, plus someone has a crush on Harry and Oliver? Oh boy…
Disclaimer: Same as the last 2
After Marcus brought Blaise to Madame Pomfrey he went back to the common room to see Gia laying on the couch, Cass was sitting in a chair across from the fire, and Draco sat across from her in the other chair staring at the fire as Gia sat up Marcus sat next to her asking, "What happened?" "Oh, the two of them had a row, you should of seen it, I have a migraine from it now. Cass was yelling till she was blue in the face, and Draco…well, he was yelling back," she answered as Marcus sighed running a hand through his hair. They always had bad rows when they were in arguments, no big surprise there, especially in fourth year when Cass caught him dancing with Parkinson at the dance, that sent her through the roof. He still remembered it too, the two had to be pulled apart, since they were inches apart, Cass had her fists balled, and Draco had the look of murder in his eyes.
Cass stood and Draco looked at her from the corner of his eye as she headed towards the portrait he stood, "Where do you think your going?" "It's none of your business, Draco," she snapped at him, "it is now," "go away." Was all she said as she stepped through the portrait door and disappeared with a piece of parchment in her hand. Draco went to go after her, but Marcus grabbed him, "I need to talk to you." Draco looked at him, the portrait door, than sighed going up to the boy's dorm. Gia looked at Marcus as she stood she went over to him and kissed his cheek, "Thanks," she said as he blinked at her asking her, "for what?" "talking to him, I'm going after Cass, I'll see you later." Gia disappeared through the door where Cass had exited a few minutes before. Marcus stared at the door than put his hand where she had kissed him, blinked, shook his head, than went up to the dorm to see Draco sitting on his bed with a picture of him, his dad, and his mother up, the second, which was most likely of him and Cass, was faced down. Marcus sat next to him, "Hey," "is there something wrong with me?" "What? Of course there isn't anything wrong with you…there's something wrong with Cass but not you," Draco chuckled bitterly, "yeah, but every time, every time I have her it's like she slips right through my fingers," "well, girls are like neon lights, they love you one moment, the next, they leave for another man." Marcus said.
Somehow this reminded him of seeing something in Cass' dorm at one point, the trio, meaning her, Row, and Gia, Jay, Caddy, and a figure standing in the middle of them. Cass had her face hidden in the dark with her arms crossed but the two comments she made, he would never forget them, the first was 'what do you want me to do about Malfoy?' or 'When this war starts, I get his head on a platter, I'm the one working with you, not against you, Tom, I get to kill him, not Jay or you, me.' He didn't dare tell Draco though, "Sometimes I look in her eyes and there's nothing there. No love, no lust, no nothing, I wonder sometimes if she even loves me. The way she is with Zabini, she laughs with him, talks to him more than to me, even when they were together for a short time in fifth year she seemed to like him more than she likes me, am I crazy for thinking that?" "No, your not crazy for thinking that, Draco, in fact…I saw something in Cass' dorm a few days ago, it looked like a journal or something like that, c'mon, I'll show you." Marcus said as both boys stood, walked out of the boy's dorm, and into the prefect dorm, where Cass' bed was.
Gia snuck along the corridor after Cass, she stopped to talk to a few passing Gryffindor students civilly, instead of snapping at them, which was not normal for the bitch of Slytherin. She followed her until they came to the portrait of the Fat Lady, "Password?" "Quidditch." Cass said as the portrait swung open she stepped through and Gia bolted towards the portrait and dove through just in time before the Fat Lady had closed. Gia stayed in a corner as she watched Hermione, Ron, Harry, and Ashley stand, "What are you doing here? How did you get the password?" Ron asked as Cass rolled her eyes, "Easy Weasley, hey that rhymed," Ashley laughed, "I guessed." Was all she said as she laid the parchment down the group crowded around her, "Harry, I need you to deliver this to Rene Brook, my father, I can't send my owl, because I'm not suppose to send anything by owls, can you use Hedwig to send it to him?" "Yeah, sure." Harry said taking the piece of parchment saying as he stepped through the portrait, "I'll be back." Cass sat down on the red couch sighing, "My head," "you okay?" "What? Yeah, I just have a huge migraine." She said rubbing her forehead.
Gia inched out through the portrait and ran back down to the common room to see Row and Greg Goyle down there sitting on the black leather couch both indulged in homework, "Where's Marcus?" Row looked up seeing Gia there and said, "Um, I think I saw him upstairs with Draco in Cass' room," "their in her room!" She asked wide eyed as she ran upstairs into the prefect dorm than into Cass' room to see Draco and Marcus there, looking for something, "WHAT IN THE BLOODY HELL DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING!" the two boys jumped hitting their heads on whatever they were searching through, "Ouch…" "damn it that hurt, what the bloody hell was that for Gia?" Marcus asked rubbing the back of his head, "What are you doing going through Cass' stuff?" she asked again giving them her worst look possible as Marcus shifted Draco bit his lip, "Well? I'm waiting, when Cass comes back and she finds out…" "If I find out what?" Gia jumped and turned seeing Cass in the doorway, Blaise behind her.
Cass looked at Gia, than Marcus, than at Draco who glared at her and Blaise, both glared right back, "What are you doing in my room?" "Nothing, we're doing absolutely nothing," Marcus said grabbing Draco's shoulders ready to push him out the door, "do you think she believes that?" Blaise asked eyeing the three of them as Gia backed away to fall in line with Marcus and Draco, "I'll ask again," Cass said through gritted teeth, "what are you doing in my room?" "I already told you, nothing!" "Liar! You wouldn't be in my room if you weren't lying! This is getting out of hand, I'm writing to my father about this, and you will be damned if he comes here to meet with the Headmaster himself, all three of you will be out of this school even before your expelled for going through my things." The three were silent as Cass stepped aside, "Go, before I do write to my father saying your invading my personal space." Gia, Marcus, and Draco walked past them and left the room as Cass watched Draco from the corner of her eye Blaise walked into her prefect dorm and she followed after him, closing her door with a slight slam.
The three went back down to the common room where Row and Goyle had finished their homework and both were looking a bit tired, "Oye, Row, have some private time down here without us?" Marcus asked grinning as Row glared at him and chucked a pillow at his head as the dorm portrait swung open they looked at the door that revealed two figures dressed completely in black, but they had a sign on their arms that they couldn't make out in the dimly lit room, "Is Cass Brook here?" one asked, clearly a girl, "Yeah…upstairs in her prefect dorm," Marcus answered as the girl nodded and motioned to the other. The five watched as the two looked at Draco from the corner of their eyes and they smirked slightly as Cass appeared at the top of the stairs, "Let's go, we don't have all day you two!" The two ran up to her as one lowered her hood long blonde hair cascaded down her back, the other had jet black hair cut short, "Karla, Josephine, come on in," the two walked in as Row and Gia's mouths fell open they stared at the other. Marcus, Greg, and Draco blinked than looked at the two girls as Marcus asked, "Who were they?" "Those two are Karla Brook and Josephine Brook, Cass's sisters! Their a younger than her, but they go to Durmstrang and Beauxbon," (sp?) Row said as Marcus stared at her, "How rich is Cass's family?" "Rich, their house is like a mansion, of course, with 20 kids…" "20 KIDS!" all three boys asked wide eyed, "Yeah, 20 kids, Cass is the oldest, her parents are bloody ancient," Gia said as the door opened upstairs, "I HEARD THAT GIA!" Cass yelled as Gia, Row, Marcus, and Greg laughed.
Two hours went by as the door opened Karla and Josephine walked down the stairs, looked at Draco again, and giggled madly, "Hi Draco," both said as Draco turned to look at them they giggled again, "Hi," Cass came down after them, "okay, go back to school you two before Madame Maxime and Igor kill you," Karla giggled again, "oh c'mon Cass, can we stay just one night? Please?" "No," "Awe! Please? We'll be good…" Cass let out a laugh, "you two good? Don't make me laugh!" the two girls pouted as she ushered them out, "Bye Draco." Karla said as she left after Josephine. Cass shook her head as she sat on the table Gia looked at her, "I'm going to bed," Cass announced as Row rose an eyebrow at her, "it's only nine," "yeah, so? I'm tired," there weren't anymore arguments with her as she retreated upstairs into her dorm.
