Stuck in illusion it turns to delusion ”I’m going to kill him.” Her gray eyes darkened with a steely glint. It was a bit of information to process, but one point stood out and among the rest, and she just felt angry. ”I just—“ Evy still had some disbelief to handle along with her anger. Of all people, it was the Gryffindor she had not expected. ”Simon? Really?” But that was beside the point. It was done and over with, and apparently so was he. She shook her head and took a seat next to Luna on the edge of her bed. It wasn’t a typical time for the girl's dorm to be crowded, though Lulu and Nessa hardly hung out here on purpose.
Luna had come into the Common Room with a fury and very upset, and Evy got the story from her of what happened. Evelyn was never one to judge on certain matters or at least the people she cared about. Evy herself had given that part of herself to a boy just the previous year and hadn’t really thought much of it as her fifth year had been a rather numb experience. Hooking up with boys or even girls in her year or in the sixth and seventh years had slowly become a part of her Hogwarts experience. She briefly thought about how she’d been in very close proximity to a certain seventh-year Slytherin boy just yesterday.
But there was also the matter that Luna hadn’t told Evy about this, but she kept that tucked into her mind for later in the conversation. Her best friend was hurting, though uncharacteristically, she was very visible with these emotions. Seeing Luna upset was far different from just knowing that she was. They weren’t the type of girls who did much else but raise an eyebrow, glare, or maybe smirk now and then. ”Luna.” Evy turned to face the triplet, an eyebrow raised. ”You are Luna, right?” It was half a joke and half a serious question. While she was pretty successful in picking out her best friend from the three, one could never be too sure.

Predictably, Luna's first course of action post showdown with Simon was to find Evy. Years ago, she would have found solace in her sisters, but somehow Evy understood her and had usurped the girls' positions as trusted advisors. Luna was simply too different from the other two. She had never been sunshine and butterflies, more cunning and manipulative than anything. Luna went after what she wanted - and when she had wanted Simon, she had gotten him. At least, she had thought so. But now, Luna had nothing. Except Evy.
When she found her best friend, Luna let a single tear escape, traitorously showing the hurt within her. Not only was she sad, but Luna was angry that she had been blind enough to trust him. She ought to have known better - a fact of which Evy was not so gently reminding her. "Yes, Simon," she snapped after a moment, having explained the whole sordid tale to Evy. "Don't ask me why, I just got it in my head and then I had to have it. Ugh! And I even slept with him! You know how much I wanted that to be special... and even if at the time it had seemed so, now it's all is just bollocks," swore Luna, her face flushed with anger an embarrassment.
Luna laughed darkly. "Shockingly, I am Luna. Merlin, how embarrassing. I'm acting like Phoebe with all this blubbering," said Luna, scrubbing her face with her hands. "Well, I suppose it's good he's graduating soon. But what am I meant to do for the next month, Eves?" asked Luna her grey eyes landing on those of her best friend. Perhaps they were sisters, in another life - she'd not seen the same steely glare on anyone else but herself.

Stuck in illusion it turns to delusion Family had always been a vital element in Evelyn’s life and an idea that had been told to her almost her entire life. When Sarah had murdered her brother, it had shattered all of that, and Evy had never really recovered from that. How does one move on when a vital and foundational building block crumbled into dust? Plus, her sisters were much older and busy. She didn’t have Mina at school anymore and saw her only on occasion. Somehow, despite everything, she saw Sarah more than the other two. But she’d been friends with Luna since their first year, and over the years, their friendship just solidified. Now, more than ever, with her family in pieces, she depended on her more than ever.
A tear ran down Luna’s face, and she listened to her confirm that she had slept with Simon. Again, Evy couldn’t judge who Luna’s first was as her own was hardly a special someone. But there was a certain charm to him, and Evy knew he was friends with Nate, who had his own magnetism so she could relate on that front. ”Well what did he say? And did he—Merlin, what an ass.” Evy would have happily hexed him in the face were he standing in proximity. What kind of person does that? Knowing it was someone’s first time and then just hanging them out to dry so soon after. Talk about incredibly rude.
Evy thought for a moment. The only person who typically made Luna so upset was one of her sisters but hardly ever anyone else, let alone a boy. ”Well—you definitely can’t cry like this in front of him.” There was the image one had to maintain. Anything less was admitting some kind of defeat. ”We focus on exams and never seeing him again.” Evy had practiced her own steely glare and stoic expression when Sarah had come home. A way to keep everybody at a distance. In Evy’s mind, he didn’t deserve the satisfaction, and she was ready to glare at him if he even looked in their direction. Evy let out a sigh and grabbed her best friend's hand to let her know she was right there with her. They both probably had some work to do on their choices in partners, not that Evy was terribly concerned about her own at the moment.

It didn't take long for Luna to come out with the whole sordid tale. The fact that she had hidden this from Evy in the first place was shocking enough. She should have known when Simon requested this to be secret that there was something wrong. But Luna had loved the thrill of sneaking around, of this secret she had held so close and dear. And it hadn't seemed like Simon was having her on. It just seemed like they were having fun, being young and free.
Luna composed her face into that steely mask of calm before replying. "Said he was in love with someone else. I feel like it's that Claudia bitch. Isn't she dating Nate? Simon's best friend? Or something twisted like that," she spat, distressed. "I mean, of course, it's Simon. But... it really felt different. He said all these things, like I was special. We even made a blanket fort on top of the Astronomy tower and spent hours up there, all alone..." she trailed off, lost in what had once been such a pleasant memory but now was tainted with hurt. She cradled her head in her hands, taking deep breaths to try to regain her composure. How could she have lost sight of so much in so little time?
"Exams," Luna echoed, flinching into her hands. "Blimey, I gotta get my marks up if I want to make captain next year. But exams just seem so... pointless." She sighed, raising her head from her hands and snaking an arm through Evy's. "Hey. Let's go bug Nate for some smokes. Or something. I dunno. Something to get out of my head, just this once. Please, Eves?"

Stuck in illusion it turns to delusion Evy couldn’t help but shake her head. It was a tale as old as time, but there was no sense bugging Luna about what had already passed. ”I still don’t know why you didn’t tell me.” She added with a fake annoyance. They didn’t tend to hold back with one another, though it was healthy to have some secrets, she supposed. Evy certainly didn’t tell Luna everything but enough. But her ears perked up, speaking of Nate…Well, Evy and Nate certainly had their conversations and such, but if she’d slept with him, Luna would undoubtedly have known about it. ”She was. You didn’t hear what happened?” The Hogwarts rumor mill was merciless.
Friends was a strong word for whatever that was. Evy didn’t quite understand it. Her eyebrow raised in question almost, like she was still pondering that ‘friendship’. Claudia was in the year above them, though they didn't interact much. Plus, Evy wasn’t exactly an innocent party in that situation. ”Claudia was with Nate…but also with Simon.” She explained. In fact, the timing of all that was probably not long after Simon had taken Luna on the aforementioned Astronomy Tower date. She sighed, giving Luna a sympathetic look. ”I’m sorry Lu…”
Exams. It wasn’t their favorite, but it was an easy enough distraction when needed. But, she brought up Nate again, and Evy paused a moment before blinking and shrugging. ”I’m sure he’s in his usual corner, I haven’t interrupted his chess game today.” Luna had intercepted Evy not long after she herself had entered the Common Room. ”As long as you don’t mention Simon.” Evy found herself adding. The last thing she needed was to be an accomplice to a combined Nate and Luna attack on the Gryffindor.

Luna shrugged, not meeting Evy's eyes. "Honestly, it was some disgusting romantic reason. I liked having something that was just for me. I'm so used to sharing so I just... didn't." She shrugged again, feigning nonchalance when inside she was a hurricane of emotions. "I'm sorry, Eves. I should have said something," said Luna at last, in a very small voice.
Evy mentioned the Hogwarts rumour mill, and Luna flinched. She had not forgotten the lie she had spread that Lulu and Friday were hooking up. Maybe it was true, but it really probably wasn't. She certainly hadn't seen anything of the sort. Arlo had looked like a kicked puppy, and she'd sort of drifted away from him after that. Something about his defeated attitude overtook how good looking he was, and he became rather less attractive. Unlike Simon. Who was even more attractive now that he had rejected her. As she listened to Evy's explanation, her brows shot further and further up. "What a slag. Shagging two best mates. Merlin, that's low... and Simon reckons he's in love with her? As if," she grumbled.
Luna glanced around the common room, but it was deserted save for the pair of them. Luna slunk deeper into her chair, frowning. "No, he's not there. But I promise I won't say anything," said Luna, miming zipping her lips together. "Reckon we can sneak into the boys dorms and get some? Or maybe Lulu has something, she had that bottle of whisky ages ago..." said Luna, frowning. She just wanted an escape.
