Where your Heart Lies
Chapter I: New Girl in Town?
"You can do this," she said in a breathless whisper. With blue eyes filled with determination, she took a step forward and held her head high.
Harry James Potter, known as the most sought out guy in school, hell even in the whole town, was lazily scribbling in his notebook inside the cafeteria. His best mates, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley, who just became a couple two weeks ago, were laughing and joking at each other.
Pansy Parkinson and Theodore Nott, also a recent couple, were flirting even though they're already together. Blaise Zabini and Ginny Weasley, Ron's little sister, are hopelessly romantic too.
Harry gave a slight huff, making the occupants of the table look at him briefly.
Pansy stopped making-out with Nott to give Harry one raised eyebrow.
"What's wrong mate?" Ron asked, curious to Harry was in a bad mood. And a bad-mood Potter is a bad one, not that his friends can't handle it, it would just be a pain in the arse.
"I'm just jealous that all of you have partners while I have one-time offs with others," his brows closed in on each other as he frowned, stabbing the pen on the poor notebook he was scribbling earlier on.
"That's cause' you don't know what you want," Pansy told him mockingly, in which Blaise and Ginny laughed at. He only grunted.
"Look on the bright side, Harry! There's supposed to be a new girl in school today, and you never know, she might just be your happily ever after," Ginny wiggled her eyebrows suggestively, in which the group agreed on.
"And besides, you're Harry Potter for a reason, especially when your parents own this school and the Principal is your grandfather." Hermione told him, in which the group agreed again.
Harry sighed, but not so much as before. Maybe he could make this work, if only he could find the right girl to do it with. He ruffled his already messy locks attempting to make his fast beating heart calm down. He wasn't sure why, but he felt that something is going to change in his life today. Something good.
The bell rang, signaling for the students to go back to classes and Harry stood up with the rest of his friends.
His class was with Hermione and Ron, and this class was where he's good at. No, not the subject. It's how he ruled this class that's what makes him excited. He's the rules. And as much as he didn't abuse his power…much, he liked to abuse it at least once a day, and that's what he's going to do.
The sound of chalk as it wrote swiftly in the blackboard, was boring to Harry, even if it was introducing the new student. He mildly wondered what she looked like, seeing as there are no more seats available except for the on next to him. And believe him that he would gladly share his if it meant having something to keep his mind off of his friends' relationships.
"Miss Grey, please come in," the teacher, Miss McGonagall, said.
In came a girl, who stood quite tall, 5"7 in height, with long black hair the stopped mid waist and azure blue eyes. To say that she's pretty was an understatement. She was bloody gorgeous. And with the whistles and cat-calls, its not hard to see that he's not the only one who thinks that.
But somehow, something about her eyes didn't seem right. Like blue didn't match her at all. Her perfect and flawless pale skin looked soft to the touch, pink plump lips moved as if she's speaking, but Harry didn't hear her voice. The school uniform was perfect on her, as if it was made for her to wear.
McGonagall's voice stopped him from examining the girl further, "You will sit next to miter Potter, seeing as he's the only one who has an available seat. I hope you don't mind dear."
The girl, Daisy, only shook her head and proceeded to head towards the empty seat next to him.
When she was finally comfortably seated, Harry turned towards her and gave his hand.
"Hi, I'm Harry, and you are Daisy Grey, correct?" he said nicely, smiling as the girl looked at him.
"If you don't know how to read, Potter, why are you even here in 7th year?" Her voice was a bit deeper than a girl's, but somehow, it was pleasant to hear. Except now he was quite pissed off at what he had just heard the girl said.
"I was trying to make conversation Grey," he emphasized on her last name. And again, Harry thought that her name didn't suit her as well. As if it wasn't her real name at all. He shook his head at the thought in which he gained a small giggle from next to him.
"Going nuts about me Potter?" she told him, chuckling softly for the teacher to not notice.
"Maybe it's you who's going crazy about me. After all, I'm quite irresistible especially on the opposite sex," his smirk widened as her eyes widened, but then it disappeared at her next words.
"You're right." And her face turned cold.
A/N: Here is chapter one. I'm sorry for it being short, but I also have lots of other stories (in which I still haven't updated) that I have to finish (and update). And as much as I don't want to start on another story when I still have three more to finish, I just can't get this out of my head. Hope to get the next one out ASAP. Read and review. Flames are welcomed for improvement :D
