Cassie grinned when she felt her back press against the wall and slid her other hand down to the other girl's hip, bringing her in closer to her as she deepened the kiss.

"Draca," she murmured, licking at her bottom lip before nipping at it playfully. "Let's leave." It was a very sudden thought and she wasn't thinking of just the ball. She was thinking of leaving the tournament, Hogwarts... perhaps it was running away but only until they could sort out this mess that was rapidly approaching. She knew her girlfriend though and knew her loyalty to her Family. A loyalty that Cassie also felt since they were an extension of her family through the Blacks and Malfoy's own care to her over the years.

Still. They knew what was coming. Even if neither of them wanted to think about that tonight.
