Harry's pov:

"Potter." I heard someone bark my way. I looked up to see the oh so familiar slytherin. "Astoria, what brings you here?" I smiled sweetly, trying my best not to flip out too soon. "I thought I told you to stay away from what was mine." I leaned against the wall smirking, "well last time I checked, Draco was mine. So you don't have to worry." She glared at me, gritting her teeth. "I will get him back." She muttered. "I don't think so sweetheart."

I turned and walked away, deciding I get the last word in this conversation. She wasn't coming anywhere near Draco and I'd make sure of it. I continued walking to the gryffindor common rooms, when I got to them I mumbled the password and walked in. Draco was already there with Hermione, Ron, Blaise, Pansy, Neville, Seamus, and Dean. I smiled weakly at them all, but they all noticed my anger.

"What's wrong love?" Draco asked in a concerned tone. I shrugged, not in the mood to talk and went to walk away but Pansy grabbed my arm. "Potter hey, take a breath and tell us what happened." I looked at everyone, they all had pleading eyes and it made me sigh. I needed to start being honest with them. They're my friends. "Astoria decided to interrupt my morning stroll because I took what was hers." I mumbled the last part in a mocking tone making everyone chuckle.

Draco pulled me to his lap, I blushed at the sudden contact. "Listen Harry, at one point when I still wanted to do whatever my father told me, he was going to arrange for me and Tori to get married. It was never signed, and I would never marry her. She's just bitter because she wanted me. You have nothing to worry about handsome, I promise." I nodded, laying my head on his shoulder.

"If I have to kick her arse again I will." Pansy sneered, standing up. "I'll help." Hermione said bitterly. "Alright you two, sit down." Ron said pushing them back down on the couches. "Ronald get your hands off of m-" Ron kissed Hermione to shut her up and we all started laughing. "Weasel is right guys just calm down. We will let you beat her arse if and only if she tries something again, her running her mouth is no reason to get violent." Draco said calmly.

"I liked it better when you were an arse." Hermione grumbled, leaning into Ron. We all laughed at her and I got up off of Draco's lap to go tackle her into a hug. She giggled, hugging me back. "Harryyyy, get off this instant." I smiled hugging her a bit tighter, "never, you were gonna possibly get expelled for me. You love me." I said brightly, she just giggled again, swatting at me. "Oh please, I couldn't get expelled for saving our precious Golden boy."

I rolled my eyes, "okay you all have been spending way too much time with the slytherins!" Everyone laughed, and Draco finally pulled me off Hermione. "What do you guys say we go to the room of requirements and play a little truth or dare? Lighten the mood?" Seamus suggested and we all nodded. Neville mumbled something about going to get Ginny and Luna and meeting us there.

We all headed down together, going in and sitting on the bean bags around the floor. Me and Draco were sitting next to each other, and Hermione and Ron were on the other side of me. We all waiting for Neville and the girls. Once they got there we started to play immediately. "I'll go first, Pansy love, truth of dare?" Draco asked batting his eyelashes at Pansy. "Truth." Pansy mumbled not trusting a dare, Hermione handed her the veritaserum and then handed some to everyone else so they didn't have to wait for it anymore. Pansy took the potion, and waited for Draco to ask whatever question he was going to.

"Pansy, my love, how long have you liked Blaise for?" Pansy glared trying to fight the veritaserum but ended up blurting out, "seven years!" Anyways. She glared at Draco, and smiled sweetly at Blaise. "Alright my turn I guess, Longbottom truth or dare?" Neville blushed, and mumbled truth quietly. I rolled my eyes, these guys were lame. "If you could be with anyone in this room, who would it be?" Oh she's evil. I smirked at Neville, knowing the answer to the question already.

He fought the potion hard, and everyone looked at him confused as he stumbled on his words. "I-uhm I.. u-uh.. Blaise and Pansy." He cursed and hid his face in his hands. I smiled at him and Luna rubbed his shoulder, "it's alright Neville breathe." Luna reassured him. "Wait you like both of us?" Pansy asked in question. Neville shrugged, blushing a very deep red, and then nodded. Blaise smirked at Pansy. "Well this could be interesting." Pansy still looked confused, "how do you like two people at once?" Blaise laughed at her, as did I. "It's called polyamory Pansy, and if you make fun of him I'll hex you into next week darling." I said bitterly. I didn't like people being made fun of for their identities.

Pansy raised her hands up in defense. "Hey I'm no one to judge, if Longbottom wants us both, he can have us both gladly." I chuckled, "well I'm glad you're not being judgmental but a relationship like that takes a bit more communication than a simple, I'm down." Neville was still blushing, "c-can I go now?" Everyone told him yes except Blaise, "go as in come with me and Pansy because we're definitely discussing this." Blaise got up and grabbed the blushing boys hand, then pansy's and up and out of the room of requirements they went.

"Well that took an odd turn of events, I guess good for Neville." Ron said laughing. Dean sighed, "honestly Neville's been crushing on them for awhile. Good for him. Thanks Harry for sticking up for him." I shrugged, "I'd do the same for any of you. Shall we continue? Seamus go for Neville."

We played for a few hours before it was dinner time, and all got up to go to the great hall together. We all smiled at the slytherin table when we saw Neville already there sitting in between Blaise and Pansy. "Good for him." Ginny whispered and we all nodded.

We headed to the gryffindor tables and sat down, Draco sat next to me, kissing my cheek lightly. Which caused whispers all throughout the great hall almost instantly. I rolled my eyes, don't these people have anything better to do than worry about my life? I shrugged them off and focused on my boyfriend and friends surrounding me. When they're by my side I can't be bothered with petty rumors. I was finally happy where I was at. I looked up and smiled brightly at McGonagall who seemed to understand just what I was smiling for and returned it with a smile twice as big.

I would be going to talk to her tomorrow about my future career choice, and I really hoped that she would be willing to help me with it.

Everything was going great.

A/N it took me all day to write this because I kept back spacing and starting over lol. I wasn't sure really what to do with Neville's relationship, if I was just going to have Blaise be dating both or all three of them dating. I haven't toyed with writing Poly too much, but I think it is a great thing to be open about and explore even if I myself am not Poly. So I hope you guys liked that twist.

What do you think Harry wants to do career wise?

Thank you guys so much because again we just hit 2K reads <3 I appreciate all the love greatly!
