Alysson Potter and Draco Malfoy had been having a relationship since fourth year. Though at first it was a secret, when Draco got the Dark Mark and was assigned the task of killing Dumbledore and fixing the Vanishing Cabinet in order to let the Death Eaters invade Hogwarts, Alysson talked with Sirius, Remus, Ron, Harry, Hermione and Dumbledore himself to ask them for help to save Draco. After some arguments and disagreements, Draco hid with the Order of Phoenix, faking his death when the Death Eaters entered Hogwarts, killing Dumbledore.
