"Seriously dude, I can't believe your head over heels for a Slytherin." Nozomu laughed

Subaru groaned. "For the last time, Nozomu! It's not a Slytherin." 

"Oh ya? Then what? Is it your captain?" Kanata butted in. 

"Wait you're seeing her?" Asahi asked, "I thought you two were already a thing!"

Out of frustration on trying to convince his friends, he walked away. They had been pushing him to tell them who he fancied since a special occasion is coming up, and since they were also from pureblooded families, they were all invited but they need someone to come with them.

"Bloody hell!" 

Yume yelped. "Just why don't you use your eyes to see someone walking here?" 

"I'm sorry, I didn't know octopuses could walk on land." 

Yume blinked and processed the words she had heard, realizing who the person she bumped to. 

"What? You're already falling for me?" Subaru chuckled and smirked.

Yume rolled her eyes. "Puh-lease, never in a million years would I." she answered.

Subaru faked being hurt by helding his hand against his chest. "Aw that's a bummer. I was hoping to invite you to my room and Slytherin."

"I swear If you don't let me through I'll hex you right now!" Yume screamed.

Subaru backed away both hands in the air, gesturing as if he was surrendering. 

"Woah, woah. Blimey, you really that angry right now?" He raised a brow.

Yume didn't respond she looked away and made her way towards their common room. Ever since their first meet, she'd encounter him anytime and anywhere, and she's getting annoyed from the countless and useless teasing that boy had said to her, and honestly, she wanted to fight back but it will just damage their house's points. 

"Oh hey Yume!" Tsubasa greets. 

She timidly smiles and sat beside Ako who was sitting on the couch. 

Ako glanced at her, who took notice of her sudden change of mood. "Did the pumpkin juice got poisoned? You seem to be upset." 

Yume looked at her and smiled, "Yeah, yeah. I'm fine."

Tsubasa stood up and held her forehead. "You don't have a cold either, are you sure you're alright?"

"Or is it that boy again?" 

Yume shrugged, trying to drop the topic. But it made it even worse as they tried to ask her questions on what he did to her. 

"Oh no, i'm really fine." She shook her head. "I'm just worried to see my family again." she lied.

"Well, don't worry about it," Ako held her hand. "We'll come with you okay? Since were also going to the party right?"

"Right..."

Morning came, and they were all busy trying to get themselves inside the Hogwarts Express. Their holiday break were starting and everyone couldn't wait to be back home and spend the time with their family. Yume and Ako were walking together towards the train, they were following their seniors Tsubasa and Hime who were talking to each other. 

"By the way, have you bought dresses for the party?" Yume asked Ako. 

Ako's eyebrows furrowed. "No? I thought the party was a pajama one." she replied.

Yume pinched her sides. "It's a pureblood family party, not a student one." 

"Alright, alright." Ako sighed, rolling her eye. "I'm sorry, but my answer is no. I haven't."

"Well I think we should buy one then before the party, 'cause I have nothing too." Yume said.

"I thought you had many?" Ako asked.

"Well shouldn't you ask that to yourself too?" Yume backfired.

"Aish, whatever, let's just wait 'til we get home." 

They settled in inside a compartment and got in the seats and slept the whole ride back to Kings Cross Station. As they arrived, they hurried out and met with their families, though it was just Yume's personal driver who was waiting for her arrival. Ako tried her best to get hers and Yume's luggage towards them, since her parents are not going to be able to attend the party since they decided to go to another country without her.

"Honestly I think it's unfair for my part," she ranted. "How dare they leave without me?!" 

Yume laughed at her reaction, "Well if you weren't so dramatic when you received the letter, you could've had come with them too!"

"What's going on?" Tsubasa asked. 

"It's just Ako again," Yume replied with a smile. 

"Oh, well it's her fault." Tsubasa said. "Have you seen Hime? I haven't seen her since we got in a different compartment." 

"No, we haven't." Ako replied. "Should we wait for her?"she asked, glancing at Yume.

Yume looked at her driver and told him about the wait, her driver said it was alright. They were happily chatting while waiting for their other friend, not until someone decided to ruin her mood again. 

"Oh, you're waiting for me Yume?" Subaru stopped. "You really did miss me huh?"

Tsubasa tried to hold on her laugh, while Ako was trying to get out of the fight- because her crush, Kanata was there. And it would be too much risky since she's an open book.

"What? No!" Yume quickly denied. "I was waiting for Hime, not you." 

"Is that so? I'm sorry I thought you were." Subaru replied.

Yume was taken aback from his answer, totally not expecting it. 

"Well I guess I should go, i'll see you later." 

The ride back home was silent, no one dared to talk. Ako was fidgeting while Tsubasa was fast asleep, Hime was reviewing and Yume just sat there, staring into the scenery outside their car. She was extremely surprised by the answer Subaru had told her that she couldn't utter a word after that, Ako had to be her spokesperson in that moment.

When they arrive at her manor, they were greeted by her parents, though she would just nod and smile at them, it made her parents worry but guessed it was just because of their exhaustion of traveling. They were now in their respective bedrooms, of course her friends stayed on the guest rooms while she was back on her room. 

"What does he really think about... me?"




Yeah,  thats all.
