The next day, Aurora could be found by the black lake, with her head in Alex's lap. They were chatting, but not about how Sirius Black managed to break into the castle, but quidditch. Earlier Aurora received a letter from Edward, telling her that Puddlemore had won against the Chudleys, which made her day. Alex kept telling her that Puddlemore would soon lose against the Harpies because their seeker broke an arm, but Ary was being incredibly stubborn.

"I'm telling you, A, they will lose!"

"Please, when was the last time Puddlemore United lost?!" she was quite right about it, even though Alex knew it he wouldn't admit it. Their little argument was becoming more and more heated, she had now sat up, not wanting her head to be in his lap for any longer.

"Well, seems like quidditch is all you can think about and forget that in reality, it's some pointless sport played with the broomsticks! Broomsticks! You know what muggles do with them?!" Alex had become so red in the fact that he looked like a tomato, and what was more shocking that he called quidditch pointless which seemed to be the final straw.

"YEAH?! THEN FUCK YOU, JONES!" yelled Aurora in his face and stormed away towards the kitchens. She needed someone's company and figured that the house-elves were the perfect candidates.

Walking through the now emptied hallways of Hogwarts, she made her way over the portrait and tickled the pear. It swung open, allowing her to go in. Aurora was overwhelmed by the different scents of the food. Looking around, she set her bag down and walked over to the spot she and Alex used to sit on when they were her. Instead of sitting down she just spat at it. The sound of the liquid hitting the floor attracted the attention of the people in the room. Ary had just noticed that she wasn't the only human there, rather there were the ginger twins that she had come to love and the brunette from the train. The twins looked concerned, seeing as Aurora was never the aggressive type, she was always the bubbly girl everyone loved.

"You okay there, Arykinns?" asked George walking toward the blonde, his twin and the boy following closely behind. She chocked out the sob, it has been a while since she cried in front of other people, except for Alex of course. It hurt. The tears were flying freely down her rosy cheeks. Even house-elves were giving her the pitying looks. One of them, who Ary knew as Bubbles handed her warm milk and hugged her. Her action made Aurora cry even more.

After calming down she started explaining.

"Well, we were hanging out by the lake and discussing the last match and how Puddlemore won and he said that they wouldn't win against the Harpies," she revealed, now completely calmed down. Fred and George shared the look.

"So what you're telling us that you two broke up because he said that Puddlemore united wouldn't win?!" asked Fred, looking just as confused as his brother, while the boy that Aurora has come to know as Oliver Wood seemed to be deep in thought.

"Yes, and for your notice, we were never dating."

"Wait you weren't?" exclaimed George, while she giggled.

"I would've done the same," stated Oliver, while the twins gave him the really look, Aurora looked at him like he was some kind of goddess.

"Exactly, just because his aunt plays for the Harpies doesn't mean that they're good if anything they're absolute rubbish!"
