TW: Mild swearing

I was walking to my next class, Charms, when I accidentally tripped on the stairs. Thankfully, someone caught me.

"You ought to be more careful," the guy laughed.
"Well, I'm lucky you caught me," I smiled.
"My name's Caractacus Phelps," he said.
"Louise Scamander," I replied, "You're the prankster guy."

"And you're the niece of Newt Scamander."
"That's me."
"Why don't you go to the courtyard after class? I'm going to pull a really funny prank."

So, I listened to him and went to the courtyard. I saw a boy in first year walking around with green hair. He didn't notice until Caractacus gave him a mirror. Everyone began to laugh including me.

"Nice prank over there," I laughed.
"Thanks, wanna come to Hogsmeade with me, tommorow?" he asked.
"Sure," I smiled.

------------------------------------------------------------------

I was in the Great Hall eating my breakfast when I got a note.

Meet me in the courtyard
Caractacus Phelps

I smiled and nodded at him.

I went to the courtyard. There was a ton of other people there.
"What's that?" someone asked, pointing at the sky.
I looked up. It was fireworks.

Louise Scamander, will you go out with me?

I smiled and looked around for him. I spotted him and rushed over, wrapping my arms and kissing him. Everyone cheered.

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hey, watch this," Caractacus whispered.
A girl walked by the Great Hall and was dunked in liquid glue. She began to cry and ran out in tears.

"That's not funny," I said.
"What's wrong with you today? You always laugh at my jokes," he said.
"Funny ones, you humiliated the poor girl."
"Whatever."

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Why are you still dating him?" Andrea asked.
"I still love him," I said, "I think he's just trying to find some new pranks to do."
"Life isn't all about pranks," Edith said, "He's changed, he's not the boy you fell in love with 6 months ago."

"I'll change him, I promise," I said.

------------------------------------------------------------------

I went into the Great Hall and everyone was staring at me. I was suspicious so I slowly sat down next to Caractacus.

"Why's everyone staring at me?" I asked, "Are you pranking me?"
"Of course not," he smiled, "You're the only person I don't prank."

------------------------------------------------------------------

As I'm walking to class, I hear people whispering.
"I feel so bad for her."
"He's such a d*ckhead."
"Why would he cheat on her?"

I had a feeling that these whispers were about me so after class I went to Caractacus' dorm.

I opened it and he was there on the bed with another girl, making out.
"Glad to see that I'm not paranoid," I said to get their attention.

"Louise, I didn't mean to," he said, "It's just a joke."
I gulped down my tears, "A joke? You're pathetic, I'm not laughing."

I slap him and then run out into the bathroom. I heard someone enter. It was Edith and Andrea. They went over to hug me.
