AD/MM Fan Fiction
" Hey Tom! What are you doing with the Gryffindor girl?" Says John Black, taking out his wand. Nick McNair comes up behind him, his wand also out.
"Jonny, just leave her alone will you." Tom says defending me. I take out my wand just in case, no one noticed.
"Looks like you got yourself a girlfriend Tom." Sneers Nick.
"She isn't my girlfriend." Tom says, still standing his ground.
"Then what are you doing talking to her? Are you getting her softened up so you can curse her without her knowing what happened?" Nick asks. At that comment John turns around and starts yelling at Nick.
"What if he was? Now she would know, you git." John smacks Nick in the head then turns back to us. He points his wand at me, and casts a spell.
The memory of the duel is fuzzy, but I do remember running into the library and crying. I must have fallen asleep there. I look around the common room and just figuring someone brought me here when the library closed, and tell myself not worry about it. I walk up to the dorms, changes, looks in the mirror in the dorm bathroom and put my hair up in a pony tail with a green ribbon, and gathers my books for my first class -Transfigurations. Five minutes into the class Professor Dumbledore walks in.
"Sorry I am late. I had to fix the results from a dual last night" He says walk to the front of the class, and I had a funny feeling he was talking about Tom. He continues to talk. "Today I am going to teach you how to transfigure a person into an animal, and how to change them back. I must warn you though, if anyone uses this spell outside of class you will find yourselves in detention and possibly even expelled from Hogwarts."
I raise my hand, "Sir, if we can't use the spell outside of class, then why are you teaching it to us?"
"That Miss. McGonagall is an excellent question. I am teaching you this spell, so if you do need to use it you are able to do it without harming or killing anyone." He replies. "Okay! Now just in case you may want to take out anything from your pockets and hair, and let's begin!"
For the rest of the class we practiced how to turn someone into an animal, properly. After class I gathered all of my things, but by mistake leaving my ribbon and my diary. After Potions I had a free period, so I went back to Professor Dumbledore's classroom to retrieve my ribbon and diary.
"Are you sure that I didn't leave my ribbon in here Professor?"
"I am positive Miss. McGonagall, but if I find it I will give it back to you. And before you ask I didn't look in the diary, what you write is completely yours."
"Okay, thank you Professor." I walk out of his room and back up to the common room. While I was on the moving stair cases Tom came up behind me, scaring me. "Tom!" I scream, and then cover my mouth so the whole school doesn't hear.
Tom laughs lightly then says "I want to apologize for last night. My friends are jerks."
I shrug. "It's okay. I don't remember much of it anyway." I keep walking up the stairs to the common room, Tom walking beside me.
"I want to make it up to you. I know! Tomorrow we are taking a trip to Hogsmead. How about I take you out for some butterbeer?"
My face lights up. "Okay, it's a date then." Coming up on the Fat Lady portrait we stop.
"Okay then. Meet me in the Great Hall before we leave. I can't wait." Tom takes my hand and kisses it, then walks back down the stairs.
Smiling and turn to the Fat Lady, saying the password I walk into the common room and spins. Up in the dorm I add my green ribbon to the list of things I must find before the end of the school year. I look at the list; it contains things like my favorite shoes, my hair brush, my green ribbon, and many other things. I continue my day with nothing bad happening. I collapse into bed, and fall asleep instantly.
