Mattheo's POV

A few weeks later

Aurora: It's not so bad though, there's Hermione, she's very intelligent and makes some logical sense, of course I don't agree with her about freeing the elves but

Aurora: It's not so bad though, there's Hermione, she's very intelligent and makes some logical sense, of course I don't agree with her about freeing the elves but...
Me: Rory...
Aurora: she's very pretty
Me: Pancy and Daphne are also very pretty and they come from good families.
Aurora: Pancy, yeah, but I don't know if our parents would approve Daphne, our mum would...

She looks up at me and puts two fingers to her lips, then gets up from her bed and starts petting her cat.

Aurora: Our uncles wouldn't approve, Aunt Cissy might, but Uncle Lucius wouldn't...
Me: They're not our parents, Rory...

Aurora: I know.
Me: I don't think so

Me: What about the rumours about you and Potter?

She makes a very disgusted face

Aurora: Stupid rumours

Me: Better than knowing about you and Draco...

She rolls her eyes again, but this time she giggles

Me: You talked to Severus about the Potter thing.

Aurora: About Dumbledore's army? I let him hint that something was in the works, but I don't want him to say anything to Umbridge, at least not now, that pink-clad snake is doing too much already, and I don't want him to end this business now...

Me: You like it then...

Aurora: Of course I like it, practising protection spells, rather Draco talking to Umbridge about the Quidditch team?

Me: Yes, of course she agreed that the Slytherin team should continue to play.

Aurora: You know, I never told you how happy I am that they got you... ....
