CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED - PART TWO: Interruptions

Third Pov:

Valentine mustn't have realized what she'd said because there was an intake of breath of everyone around them. The silence didn't last long though because she rears back her hand and punches Walburga straight in the nose.

The girl starts screeching.

And then Valentine freaking launches herself at Walburga, tackling her like she was an all star football player.

Tom stands there, staring appalled.

"Oh my god!! Someone stop them!!!" Greta screams, trying to help her friend.

Danielle was gaping at the scene. She was one of Walburga's friends and yet she couldn't stop the small satisfied smile on her face.

"YOU BITCH!!!" Valentine screams, and she yanks a clump of Walburga's hair out. "Here for you." Val throws the hair at Tom and he catches it wearing an absurd look on his face. She'd magicked up a freaking bow tie on the locks of hair and Tom was highly humoured by her bloodlust.

"What is this for?"

"IT'S your trophy!" Val demands and then Walburga tackles her this time, her dress flying upwards and flashing everyone in the room a view of her knickers.

"YOU STOLE HIM FROM ME!!!"

"OH MY GOD SHUT UP!!!" Val snaps. They go rolling scratching and kicking at one another.

"I'm scarred forever." Abby's eyes were wide in horror.

"I just saw her arse." Greta hisses at Abby, eyes enlarged. "Is it supposed to be covered in pimples?" She seemed honestly confused.

"Nope!" Pandora looked ready to hurl.

"TOM!!! Do something!" Nott snaps, eyes trained on Valentine in worry.

"And why would I do that? She's fighting for my honour. She'd better win." He drawls, annoyed at Nott for seeming so worried about his girl.

"WHAT is going on here!?" Slughorn screeches in a high pitch tone. He was obviously drunk. "Somebody stop them!!" He orders but no one seemed to be paying attention so he holds out his wand, aiming it at the two fighting girls.

"VALENTINE!!" Tom shouts a warning just as Slughorn casts a spell.

"STUPEFY!"

Valentine, hearing Tom actually call her name for the first time in ages, stumbles back and throws herself to the side, rolling away. She barely misses being stunned frozen.

Walburga however, wasn't that lucky.

She stood frozen in the middle of the dance floor, her dress was flayed upwards and her knickers were showing again.

Val looked pale and enraged like some hungry hamster, Tom thought with a smirk. Danielle scampers over to her frozen friend, covering Walburga up the best she could.

"Babe. Her breasts are popping out too. She's wearing a very revealing dress." Lestrange muses, looking uninterested but he wanted to help out his date.

Danielle goes a dark red and just decides to stand in front of her friend, protecting her slightly.

Alphard had whirled around, seeming to not want to watch his sister be beaten up but also didn't want to interfere. Wise decision.

Tom grabs Valentine by the waist, lifting her up swiftly. She wraps her arms around his neck, stabilizing herself. She doesn't let go though and he keeps his arms wrapped firmly around her, knowing she was dizzy.

Valentine flicks an arm, feeling pity for Danielle, and Walburga's dress rights itself. The pretty girl then races into Lestrange's arms, burying her face in his chest.

"Thank you." Lestrange mouths at Valentine, looking highly pleased with the change of events.

"Glad someone is enjoying this." Valentine grumbles, slumping against Tom and resting her head on his shoulder. He looks down at her, smirking slightly.

"Boyfriend?" He drawls and she freezes suddenly. She looks up at him, gaping in horror.

"I called you my boyfriend didn't I?" She goes a ghastly white colour.

"Yes you did." Tom muses, finding the whole situation highly amusing. He glances down to see her look mortified. A protective urge flows in his chest and even though his brain felt absolutely disgusted with himself and with everything that had happened, he sighs. "Why not?" He shrugs, acting like he had no care in the world.

She untangles herself from him and gives him a disbelieving look. "Why not what?" She says slowly. She was getting paler by the second, looked sick to her stomach and she was also starting to blush.

She had all the colours of the damn rainbow on her face.

Tom shrugs again, crossing his arms. He was aware that the entirety of the party guests staring at them in silence. It was like they were watching a soap opera. He sneers at the thought. "Why not be your boyfriend?" He drawls with a sneer.

Valentine hurries over to him and feels his forehead. "Do you have a fever?" She demands and then shakes her head, looking baffled. "You don't have a fever." She whispers to herself, making Tom raise a brow at her.

"Can I get an answer?" He crosses his arms and his arrogance seems to snap Valentine of whatever trance had possessed her.

"Don't be an ass!" She snaps. "You want a damn answer?" She demands, wanting to wipe that dumb smirk off his face. She wanted to crumble that tough, controlled exterior.

She steps forward and raises a brow at him. "Here's my answer." She smirks this time and then she steps forward, wraps her arms around his neck, pulls him down swiftly and kisses him.

Tom seemed to freeze. A smile curves on Valentine's lips as she kisses him and then she pulls back only for Abby to start squealing. "OH MY GOD!!! OH MY GOD!!!! THEY KISSED!!! BABE DID YOU SEE THAT!!!!" She was jumping up and down, and was almost half in tears.

"Yeah babe. We all saw." Avery looked delighted and highly amused, like he wanted to burst out laughing.

"FINALLY!!!!" Abby screams, leaping on Greta and Pan who were also grinning ear to ear.

Tom's eyes were wide and his lips were puckered slightly. He settles for simply gaping at his newly acquired girlfriend thoroughly stunned.

"You just touched your lips to mine...." He says slowly, eyes wide.

His reaction makes Valentine cover her mouth, eyes twinkling in amusement. She was giggling silently and the exertion of trying not to laugh out loud was making tears stream down her face.

"YOU OWE ME THREE GALLEONS!!!! I WON THE BET!! THEY KISSED BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR!!!" Abby was still screaming.

"And?" Valentine grins, amused.

Tom swallows slowly. These emotions were strange to him. He'd never been kissed before. Never felt like he wanted to kiss anyone before. Not before she came into the halls and flashed her demonic eyes at him for the first time, making him think he'd been seeing things.

"And....?" He asks, blinking slowly at her. Her smile was doing weird things to him and he took in a breath. "And I know I never want to kiss anyone other than you." He states in a harsh gruff before striding over to her and grabbing her waist, hauling her to him.

Valentine thought she was having a damn heart attack.

This time her eyes were the wide ones, which disappear from Tom's line of sight when he kisses her again.

It was hesitant at first and then it became more confident. Tingles explode all around her and she finds herself entangling her fingers in his hair. His arms were on her waist pulling her so close to him, it was almost painful.

Abby started screaming again and this time everyone in the room cheers along with her.

- There is nothing in this world that can make me feel the way I do when you kiss me.
