Chapter 1: Wingardium leviosa
Scorpius' POV:
The Hogwarts Express
As the train started moving we all lurched forward slightly with the weight of our trunks.
"We better look for an apartment I murmured," turning to Sam and Dyl.
"If there are any left" Dylan complained with a sigh.
We wandered up and down the train a few times,
"Look, this one only has one person in it, they could probably do with some company,"
I looked in to see someone with their head pressed against the window so no one could see their face, they were hugging their knees tightly to their chest. I noticed the baggy black joggers they were wearing along with a faded red baseball hoodie with the hood up and worn out converse.
"Yeah, they could probably do with some new clothes too," I smirked.
We walked into the compartment and I suddenly felt bad. It was a girl. She looked up to see who had come in, her eyes met mine and... wow. They were black. Filled with... evil. I think. Although I'm not too sure what evil looked like, they just made me shudder. I saw a painful look on her face that quickly faded into pure disdain as if she was trying to hide something.
She didn't say anything, she just turned her head and pressed her forehead against the window. Snotty bitch. But damn her eyes.
Sam and Dyl dragged the suitcases in and together we attempted to lift them above our heads onto the racks above the seats, I would have levitated them but well I hadn't mastered that one yet. After our sixth attempt the girl leaped up as if on some sort of pogo stick and looking as if she was about to kill something. She grabbed her wand out of her trackie pockets and said under her breath, "Wingardium leviosa" the trunks rose up silently as if trying to break the awkwardness. Sam and Dylan just stood there with their fat gobs open, gawking at her like their was no tomorrow.
"Sorry," and then I swear the corners of her mouth twitched, "you guys were just really pissing me off."
Sam and Dylan stared.
" It's cool, we'd probably never have got them up," I smiled.
Sam and Dylan stared.
She sat down with a content look on her face and let her jet black hair fall over her eyes. I went and sat opposite her, trying to get her to look at me.
"So," I said, trying to break the silence, "what house you hoping for?" directing my question at her.
"...Not sure," she said hesitantly, "anything but Gryffindor."
There was no 'what about you in return' she just sat there. Staring.
"How'd you do magic like that?" I tried again
"Like what?" she snapped, like I'd hit a nerve.
"The levitating crap, I've been trying to learn that for weeks, knew it'd be useful I just didn't realise I'd need it straight away,"
She blushed, and shrugged.
Damn girls are weird, or maybe it's just her?
"Anyway," I replied "what do they call you?"
I might be imagining it but did the girl just flinch when I asked her what her name was?
She hesitated, "Raven."
Suited her hair I suppose, " that a nickname?"
She shrugged again. "what about you, what's your name?"
"I'll tell you when you tell me," I laughed.
"What about you two?" she looked over at them.
"Dylan Taylor," he said nodding, "Sam Pierce, what's your natural hair colour?"
"hmmpff," she stood up, " I'll be back in a minute, just going to get changed, I doubt you three want to see that," she blushed and walked out.
"Her clothes!" Sam stammered.
"Her eyes..." I murmured.
Dyl and Sam just stared. "Scorpius are you okay?"
"Yeah fine," I said, dazed. "But there's no denying it, she looks like some hot piece of ass."
I sat back and lazily and yawned.
I bet she's blonde. I didn't say so though. I don't know why but something about her made me nervous, and slightly apprehensive, but its not like me, Scorpius Malfoy, to be scared of a girl. No this was something I was just going to have to keep on the down low.
No way am I telling him why I know that spell, and many more for that matter. He's kind of hot though. Maybe it wouldn't be bad to have a friend? Even if he looks like a freaking albino.
