On with the Story


When I sat down at the Slytherin table for breakfast, I knew today was the day I would find out the truth. The truth about him that I wanted to forget. I knew it was true but I needed to know for myself and the mission me, Kiersten and Jamie decided on, seemed like a good idea at the time. But now I wasn't so sure.

I had a bit of toast while I waited for the morning post. I couldn't sit still. I needed to know NOW! I was talking to Pansy when I heard the flutter of wings. I looked up to see all the owls come swooping in. I picked out Jamie's owl and waited until it came to me. Jamie's owl, Bertie, dropped a box and letter in front of me. No one took notice of this.

My hands fidgeted to untie the letter. I quickly scanned the letter, tears welling up in my eyes. I unwrapped the box and picked up the photos. They were wizard pictures, meaning they moved. So, I knew when I saw them that it was true.

The tears came silently down my cheeks, but someone heard them.

"Chloe, you alright?" I heard Blaise ask.

I couldn't answer him. I needed to go. Just get out of here. I hopped off the bench, throwing the pictures on the table for everyone to see. I ran towards the doors of the Great Hall, but tripped at the last minute. Landing on my knees, I twisted myself so I was sitting with my knees to the side. I started crying. And the worst thing was I could feel everyone's eyes on me. Looking pathetic.


Regular POV

"Chloe, you alright?" asked Blaise.

In a flash, Chloe, hopped up and ran towards the doors of the Great Hall. Unfortunately, she tripped just before she got there. She just sat there, crying, for everyone to see.

"She's crying," whispered Pansy.

Draco flipped through the letter carefully, eyes narrowing. Looking through the pictures, his suspicions were correct. He got up and walked towards Chloe.


Chloe's POV

I sat there crying, for God knows how long; when I felt a strong pair of arms lift me up. I turned around to see my brother. He pulled me close, wrapping his arms around me and whispering reassuring words. He knew, but I didn't care. It felt good to know he loved me this much.

His arms loosened and he nodded to Pansy. She gathered up the pictures and the letter and left with me.

We walked until we came to the Heads Tower. Pansy whispered the password and we walked inside. She guided me over to the couch and told me to sit down. I did.

I was still crying. I couldn't believe he would do that to me. What a terrible boyfriend! I knew my make-up must be ruined so I cried some more.

Draco came in a few minutes later with Ginny. He whispered to Pansy, telling her to leave. He walked over to me and sat down, Ginny on my other side.

"This is about Tristan, isn't it?" he asked.

I nodded.

"I saw the letter and pictures. And the girls in the pictures weren't you."

I nodded again.

"You asked your friends to find out for you, right?"

"Yep," I sniffed.

"Okay, this is what you're going to do. I'm going to leave for class and you and Red are going to sit here and talk until you feel better. Better enough to go to class. Sound good?" he questioned.

"Yeah," I answered.

"I love you, you know that?"

"Yep. I love you too." He hugged me, kissed my forehead and left for class. I turned to Ginny. "I need some ice-cream!"


Ginny and I stayed in the Heads Tower for the whole day. Mostly pigging out on junk food. Every time I felt like going to class, I remembered Tristan and started to cry again. When Draco returned, he found me sleeping on the couch, alone. Ginny had left a little while before to get the work she missed from her teachers.

I didn't feel like going to the Great Hall for dinner so Draco went down to the kitchens and got some food for us to eat. He didn't pressure me into telling him about Tristan and why he had cheated on me and I was happy he didn't. I didn't really want to tell anyone anything except the fact that I was single now.

At the end of dinner, Draco turned towards me.

"If you're feeling better, can I ask you a question?"

"I guess," I answered.

"We're having Quidditch tryouts tomorrow and I wanted to know if you wanted to tryout, since you're so great and all."

I laughed. "Of course."

"Good. Now you should get back to the Slytherin dormitory."

I gathered up my stuff and headed towards the portrait hole. At the last minute, I turned around. "Does Blaise know that Tristan cheated on me?"

"Y-yeah, he does. Is that okay?" answered Draco.

"Yep. See you later, goodnight." I walked out the portrait hole with a smile on my face. I realized that since I was now single, I could try and make Blaise be my boyfriend and have fun doing it. Yay!


A/N: This chapter is the very beginning of the Chloe/Blaise romance thing. I wanted to make sure her boyfriend was out of the way. So, as I have now calculated, Draco/Hermione relationship won! I counted from the last chapters review, just to let you guys know. Anyways, thanks to all my fantastic reviewers. So Review again!

Question: For people who saw Harry Potter and the GoF, who do you think was the hottest male actor?

I just want to know.
