"Father, I want to talk to you" I stormed into his classroom right before dinner time.
"Professor Snape, Alexia, remember that"
"Youre my father. What are you ashamed or something?" He gave me a stiff look and put down his notes.
"What do you wish to speak to me about? Make it quick, its almost dinner time" I walked over to him with frustration and smacked my hands down on his desk. I had all I could take.
"I can talk as long as I want, youre my father, and youre going to listen to me"
"Dont raise-"
"I came to tell you that...Im going to marry, Draco" I said and began storming back out before he could try and say anything.
"Is that your final decision?" I nodded.
"Very well but dont come back to me saying you dont want to marry him because Lucious will not be very happy about it"
"Im not going to" I replied angrily.
"What kind of future did you think you would have with Oliver, hes older than you and hes a low class quidditch player. You wouldnt be known all around. Youd have no family because if you went with him, I would pretend you are not my daughter"
On another occasion this would have made me cry and feel sad but it was then I realized that my father had never treated me like a daughter. "Dont worry, Severus, I made my decision. And dont say that, because they truth is you forgot about me a long time ago" I said and hurried out, once again. I slammed the door and hurried up to my grandfathers office where he greeted me and hugged me.

An hour after talking to my grandfather I jogged to the common room I wanted to avoid Oliver as much as possible.
"Harry, I am asking youdid you or did you not kiss her?" I stopped midway as I saw Stacie and Harry arguing.
"Whats going on?" I asked and stepped in between them.
"Harry, wont answer my question" She said and crossed her arms.
"What happened?"
"I was walking over here when all of a sudden this girl comes over to me and tells me that Harry kissed her"
This really sounded stupid to me "Harry would never do that" I said quietly.
"Thats what I said but she doesnt believe me" Harry complained.
"I asked you to tell me if you did or not and it took you a long time to answer me, Harry, what did you expect me to think?" I had to admit I was taking Harrys side.
"Well, Harry already said he didnt so there is no need for you two to argue anymore" I said and moved away from them.
"I dont want to talk to him anymore, Im not sure I can trust him"
"Stacie, please stop being so dramatic, there are other people who have it worst than you" I was really talking a bout myself.
"This isnt your business so stay out of it" Harry looked at me and shook his head.
"Fine, I was trying to help, you dont have to be so bitchy about it" I stormed back inside the girls dorm to find Hermione reading.
"Let me guess you tried to tell her something and she told you to stay out, right?" I nodded.
"I tried too, poor, Harry"I nodded and sighed.
"I think its best we leave them alone"
"Yeah, I just hope they dont end up angry at each other because I dont want to have to take sides" Hermione was right, I didnt even want to think about having them fight about everything and making us takes sides.

"God!" Stacie stormed in a few minutes later, while Hermione and I read. She looked at us and sat down on her bed. "I swear, Harry, is so dramatic "
I bit my lip to stop myself from laughing. "You two shouldnt be fighting over something so stupid "I said.
"Oh, please, just leave me alone, I dont even want to think about it. I think its over" I decided to just ignore her since she wasnt listening.
"Im going for a walk, you want to come, Hermione?"
"No thanks Im going to finish reading this book"
"Suit yourself, youre going to be stuck listening to miss bitchy" I hurried down the stairs into the cold of the night

I finally stopped near the lake where not too long ago I had been with Oliver, those memories filled my thoughts and made me feel sad. I missed him already.
"I thought Id find you here" I didnt need to turn to know that Oliver was coming my way. I could tell just by the way my body was reacting and that way he smelled.
"You knew Id be here, I thought I made it clear that-"
"I want to know why, all of a sudden you choose him?"
Y"ou said you would understand" I said without turning to look at him. He stood right behind me, and leaned down to whisper in my ear.
"I lied, part of me believed you would choose me, because you love me" I shivered and tried stepping forward but his arm went around my waist
. "Oliver, please, dont do this"
"Why? Ally, I want to be with you"
"I dont" I said quietly and tried to free myself.
"Tell me, while looking into my eyes that you dont love me and I'll stop bothering you" He turned me around with his arm still around my waist, my shirt was up now and his hand was now resting at the small of my back. I looked up into his eyes, the moonlight was reflecting upon them.
"You know I have to marry him, I have no other choice"
"You dont have to"
"Yes I do! You dont understand anything, ok? Just leave me alone, dont make this any harder for me "I pushed him back but he immediately grabbed me back.
"Dont do this to me" He said and pressed me against him, so tight, I could almost feel and count every part of his muscles.
"Stay with me, lets go away, and never come back"
"Youre forgetting that you have a girlfriend, Oliver, dont do this, we cant do this"
"When Im with you, I cant think about anything else, I let myself go, Im not worried about tomorrow". His words sounded so pretty I wanted to let go, I really did. I wanted to forget everything and everyone. But I couldn't

"Are they still mad at each other?"
"Im afraid so Hermione" whispered as I slipped inside my bed. I could still feel Olivers touch and his smell and his beautiful words.
"Im awake you know" I laid back down and yawned.
"I know youre awake" I replied and covered my face with the sheets. "If I were you Id get over your anger before its too late. Trust me there is no worse pain than loosing the person you really love" I closed my eyes and let the tears fall freely. From now on I wouldnt even take a walk outside or go anywhere alone I didnt want to run into Oliver, I didnt want to have to reject him again.

"Ally, come here, please" I looked over at Draco and wiped the sweat off my forehead.
"You come here "I yelled. He grinned and walked toward me. I had just finished flying class.
"I got you something since Ill be leaving tomorrow for Christmas break. My father will probably want to meet you so Ill write, maybe you can come over and meet my mother and father". I smiled generously and took his present, I opened it to see a small necklace with a snake on it.
"Thanks.Id like that, as long as they dont treat me the way you did in the beginning"
"Dont worry, Ill make sure they dont, they wont be able to resist your charm" I laughed and leaned against him. I had to try to like him, so I was. We had been hanging out for the past four days. As impossible as it is to believe, I actually enjoyed being with Draco.
"Did I tell you that Pansy isnt too happy with me sitting at the Slytherin table?"
"She told me, but no one else agrees with her"
"Shes jealous" I replied and walked with him to the Slytherin table, It sure beat being with Harry and Stacie, they were still mad at each other.
"Yeah, many girls are, you should consider yourself lucky"
"I should" I replied and looked at him. He stopped and cupped my face, in front of the Great Hall.
"Draco, what are you doing?" He didnt answer instead he leaned down and kissed me in front of every one, including Oliver. I saw him stand and look at me and you know what I did? I closed my eyes and kissed him back with passion. I wanted Oliver to see, I wanted him to hate me, to forget me, to think that I liked Draco. Oliver shook his head and sat back down. I could fool everyone but not Oliver, he knew me too well.
