Word Count: 1193

Over the next week, Y/N kept a routine. Classes with Sag, Ivy and Charles. Studying with Sag and Ivy for their O.W.L.S every evening on Monday through to Thursday. Having fun with Sag and Ivy on Friday evenings, Saturday and Sunday mornings. Alone time with Charles Saturday and Sunday evenings. And meeting Tom every night. Each night was different. A different meeting spot, or a gentler kiss, or a rougher kiss. No night was the same. Especially one Saturday night.

She was reading on Charles's lap in the Slytherin common room. He was reading his own book as well. Then, all of a sudden, Charles closed his book. Y/N looked up at him. "Close your book. Let's go for a walk." He said. She put a bookmark between the pages and followed Charles out of the crowded common room. He led her out to the Black Lake, and over to a tree in a secluded corner. Their make out spot. Y/N smirked. Then, Charles turned around and kissed her. She kissed back, and then their tongues went into play. All she could think was how she hadn't made out with Tom before. Kissed, yes. Made out, no. What she didn't notice, was that Tom was watching them from afar, with a very similar thought going through his head.

When Y/N went back to her dormitory, Ivy was there, reading a book on her bed. "Hey Ivy." Y/N said. "Hey. There's a letter for you." Ivy said pointing to Y/N's pillow. Y/N frowned. Who would send her a letter. Maybe Dumbledore? "Who's it from?" She asked. "Don't know. Maybe it's written on the inside." Ivy suggested. Y/N nodded. She changed into a tank top and shorts and sat on her bed to open the letter. In swirly, cursive writing, it said:

Meet me at the astronomy tower at 11pm.
-T.M.R

Y/N smiled. She was meeting Tom again. Not that it didn't happen every night. But it was surprising early. "Who's it from?" Ivy asked. "Dumbledore. He still hasn't found a way for me to get back." Y/N lied. Ivy nodded. Y/N then murmured "Incendio." And burned the letter.

She met Tom atop the Astronomy Tower at 11pm sharp. "You're on time." He murmured when he saw her. Y/N smirked. "We're trying something new today." Tom said. Then, he kissed her. Gently, and softly, but somehow it still had traces of roughness from their other kisses. Then, he trailed his teeth along her bottom lip, asking for permission. She opened her mouth and his tongue slipped in. After a bit, they pulled away, panting. Tom smirked happily and left. Y/N stood there for a bit longer, and left too. She wasn't sure what she and Tom were, but she liked it.

The next day, it was a good deal colder than the other days. British weather. Y/N thought bitterly. She sat with Sag and Ivy in the common room. She played Sag in wizard's chess, while Ivy watched. "So, how are you and Charles doing?" Sag asked, as he made his move. "We're good." Y/N made her move. "Had any luck with what's-her-name?" Sag made his move, then Y/N went again before he answered. "Unfortunately, no. And her name is Angel." Sag said. Angel Nott was Sag's crush, but she did not reciprocate the feelings. "Hah! Checkmate!" Y/N shouted happily. Sag groaned. "Are you over Tom?" Ivy asked, taking Y/N's place in playing Sag. "Yep. Well over." Y/N lied.

That night she met Tom at the Library at 1am. She shivered with cold as she approached Tom. "Are you cold?" He asked, closing the distance between them. Y/N nodded. Tom pulled off his hoodie and gave it to her. She put it on. It smelled of his cologne. Then he kissed her gently, lovingly. Tonight he was acting especially boyfriend-y. Y/N pulled away. "Have you decided how you feel about me?" Y/N asked. Tom nodded. "And?" She asked. "Break up with Charles." Tom said happily. Y/N grinned. "But no kissing in front of people. Only hugs and holding hands." Tom said. "Ok." Y/N agreed.

That morning, Y/N was awoken by Ivy shaking her. "What?" Y/N answered. "Y/N! Who's hoodie is that?" Ivy asked. Y/N opened her eyes and looked at her clock. 06:05. "You woke me up at 6 in the morning on a Sunday to ask me who's hoodie I'm wearing?" Y/N asked, glaring at Ivy. "Yep." Ivy replied.  Y/N groaned, sat up and told Ivy what's been happening. "So you're going to breakup with Charles?" Ivy asked wide-eyed. "Yep. And you'll catch up Sag." Y/N said. "Ok." Ivy agreed. The two girls went to wake up Charles and Sag. "Char, wake up." Y/N whispered. Charles woke up. "What is it?" He asked. "Come with me. I need to tell you something." She whispered.  She led him out to the common room, and they sat down on a couch. Y/N made sure to leave a decent amount of space between the two. "What is it?" Charles asked shifting closer. Y/N subtly shifted away. "I'm....I'm breaking up with you." She said. "What? Why?" Charles asked, tearing up. "I'm in love with someone else." Y/N answered. "I-I need to go." Charles said and left the common room. Y/N sighed. Tom came out of the shadows. "I'll miss him. He was nothing compared to you but....he was still really sweet." Y/N said. Tom pulled her into a hug, and Y/N realised she was still wearing his hoodie. "Do you want it back?" She asked, gesturing to it. "Nah. Keep it." He said.

Tom sat with Y/N, Sag and Ivy at breakfast. Sag and Ivy were still a bit uneasy around him, but they were getting more comfortable. "Ugh, we have Potions now." Y/N remembered, putting her head on the table. "And the test." Ivy added. "What test?" Y/N asked panicked. "The Potions test?" Sag told her slowly. "Oh my god! I completely forgot!" Y/N whined. Tom rubbed her thigh under the table, which calmed her down a bit. But she was still agitated as she held Tom's hand outside the Potions classroom waiting for Slughorn. She couldn't believe she had forgotten about the test. She was such a good student. "Good morning students! Take out your quills. We're doing a test today." Slughorn announced as everyone sat down in their spots. All the students groaned upon hearing this. Slughorn gave out the papers and walked to the top of the classroom. "You may begin." He said, and walked down the side of the classroom opposite to Y/N, Tom, Ivy and Sag. Y/N's leg bounced and she bit her lip as her mind went blank reading the first question. Tom grabbed her hand. "You can copy off me." He whispered, sending shivers down Y/N's spine. Y/N smiled at him gratefully and he smiled back.

So....this chapter and the last one were a lot....I think. A lot to digest haha. Don't worry, for now I'm planning a lot of fluff. For now.
