Pretend

Twenty four - useless bet

'Oh! Let's make a bet!' A light bulb appears on my head

He gave me a 'tell me' look

'By the end of this year , whoever gets the best grades get to choose '

'Are you kidding?' He laughs

'What!'

'You know that I'm going to win'

'Well, at least I can get motivated to be better that you' 

'If you say so, it's a deal then'

I hold out my pinky and he looks at me confused

'Pinky promise ' I say, me and Abby always do pinky promises.. Tom probably doesn't know

'Just hold out our pinky '  I instruct

'Oh okay'

'Perfect' I smile

I don't know how am I supposed to exceed Tom , but it's done and I'll try my best

'Goodnight kiss' I quickly lean forward to kiss his cheek but before I could stand up he hugged me

I'm literally squeezed but I hug back

'Goodnight' he says through my hair

I look up at him and he kisses my forehead

I can't help but smile, this boy brings me so much joy.

I can't believe that I used to look at him and think about how much I wanted to punch him.

'Tom I can't breathe' I struggle

'Oh sorry' he loosen his grip

I peck his lips and stand up, still smiling

'See you tomorrow morning'

'See you tomorrow, darling'

DARLING shit I'm screaming internally aaaaaa

My roommates are still fast asleep

I lay in bed and fall asleep thinking about my handsome boyfriend while a smile is stamped on my face

Muggle Studies is a class I share with Abby, but not with the boys.
Is also the only class me and Abby can gossip without getting disturbed.
Thanks to my muggle born bestfriend this class is easy for me

I told her about the conversation that me and Tom shared last night
Her reaction was priceless

'Both your parents probably want grandchildren early'

'ABBY!! You look and act so innocent but deep down I know your the opposite!'

Once class ended we had to part ways

I now have Arithmancy which I share with Tom and Dan.

Other students from different houses share this class ,but I don't know any of them and I'm not here to make friends

Even though it's one of my most interesting classes, too many numbers hurt my eyes

Today I'm  concentrated and paying attention, not even looking at the two boys I know

Tom noticed how committed I was to beat him, he also said I was cute for trying *rolls eyes for the 394th time*

I paid extra attention to all of my classes that by the end of the day my brain was fuming

One month before summer break

I'm doing great  at all of my classes, but of course Tom is going better,effortlessly .
I  accepted my defeat, but I'm not gonna admit it to Tom.

He said that , if he wins (which is more likely), he prefers staying at his own Manor

That's why I'm already thinking about the outfits to bring lol

We are all reunited at the Slytherin table during breakfast

'We are going to Australia this break' says Abraxas putting some butter on his toast

'That's cool, we are going to Germany' states Avery from beside him 'what about you?' He asks the four of us

'I'm planning on introducing Dan to my parents' says Abby looking lovingly at his boyfriend

'Yeah so I will spend it with her' he says smiling nervously at the thought

'You'll do good Dan, just be yourself I know they'll like you' I assure him

'Yes! If my parents accepted y/n, you'll do just as good' continues Abby

'Hey! But yeah it's true'

'What about you two?' Avery asks me and Tom

I open my mouth to answer but Abby's quicker

'They'll be practicing marriage life'

I throw her one grape which she catches with her mouth

Nice catch tho

'In short, we will spend this break together.. again' I state

'You finna come back in three' states Abraxas laughing

I throw him a grape too which he doesn't catch and it hits his head

'Head shot!' I laugh

'Oh so it's war' Abraxas takes a grape too and throw it at me

But before it could hit me Tom catches it right in front of my face

I look at him in disbelief as he just ate it

'You don't want to declare war to my girlfriend without going over my dead body first' he states

I blush at the sound of 'my girlfriend' coming from him

'I'll never declare war to her ever again' states Abraxas with one hand up and the other one on his heart

'That sounds about right'

The whole group started to chuckle

A/n: sixth year is finally coming to  an end🤭 but this story it's still a long way to go I think☺️
