What do you do when somebody betrays you..? Aurora blinked. Nobody had betrayed her... She didn't know... But it brought thoughts of recent things back to her that she didn't want to think about right now.. "I... I don't know. I mean... I'm not usually the one being betrayed." Nope, this time it was all her fault... But was it really? Did it count as betrayal? It wasn't as if she'd actually done anything... flirting wasn't betrayal was it..? Was it..? "Why..? What happened?"
“No thanks. I can manage.” he said as he picked one of the letters with his other hand and threw it in the fire. The fire slightly roared then flickered innocently as it burns the parchment. That wasn’t so hard.
He instantly regretted doing that. It was Fabian’s letter. He was sure of it since it was thick.
“That letter was from Fabian.” He said pointing at it.
“The same cousin who helped me get the Egyptian tome I gave you.” He said as watched the remaining parchment turn to ash. He bit his lip and bowed his head. He got along so well with them. And just for a school, he was tortured by his own cousins. Who does that?
He wished his memories of them would turn to ash soon just like that parchment.
No one has ever betrayed Aurora? Wow.
“You’re lucky.” He said looking up and gave her a weak smirk which disappeared immediately as he turned his gaze toward the flame. Fabian’s letter was gone. He sat up straight and placed Julian’s crumpled letter on the floor. He eyed the squashed wax that seals the letter and looked away.
“I was betrayed by my own cousins back at Durmstrang.” he said in a flat tone as if it was nothing.
“You know I am an only child, right? It’s kind of logical that I get along with them well, since they are like my brothers already.” He let out a sigh, and rummaged in his pocket for some chocolate frog.
“Let’s just say they exchanged their own cousin for some bit of entertainment and reputation.” He got a box of chocolate frog out of his pocket and started to open it.
“Promise me you wouldn’t do that to your cousins or to anyone no matter what.” Well, what comes around goes around.

First of all... the DUNGEONS?
What the heck was that about? For people telling him that Slytherins weren't evil, the fact that they were kept in the dungeons was completely contradicting to him. Sighing, he traipsed in front of the fire and plonked him self onto the ground.
He sprawled out his arms and legs and just laid there, contemplating life.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh." He said in relaxation.
The floor was cold.
>______<
As he opened the box of chocolate frog he was surprised to see Ptolemy’s face staring back at him. For a few seconds his thoughts about his cousins were forgotten and stared back at the card.
“Finally! Hellooo Ptolemy.” he exclaimed and grabbed the card, and totally forgot about the Chocolate Frog that he was about to eat. As Mordred examines the card, the chocolate frog leaped out of its box.
Mordred searched for the chocolate with his hand as he continued to read the card. To his dismay it was gone. He looked at the empty box with a puzzled face.
“Where did it...?” his voice trailed off and saw a boy in his first year sprawled on the floor, with the chocolate frog on his face. Pssh. It was his last piece.
Bummer.
