CHAPTER 2
So here's the second chapter. In this chapter, Draco and Lily will have a not so very romantic meeting. But it'll get better soon. Please read and comment and sorry if you don't like the story. I tried my best.
Lily's POV:
So here's my first day of school. It was pretty good. Gryffindor seems like a good house. All the kids were nice to me. Not only the Gryffindor, but other students were also nice to me. Although some of the guys were flirting, they were all nice.
This school is so big and so mysterious and it teaches MAGIC. I still can't get over the fact that is actually teaches us magic. That's so awesome. I wish I had joined it from the first year. I could have more friends that way. But even now I have made some friends on the first day of school. Not a bad beginning. Although I must give credit that Harry and his friends are really nice.
After breakfast, I got my schedule. First, I have Charms class. Ginny Weasley is also in that class. She's a nice, timid, not very out-going girl, but somehow has managed to get a boyfriend. Then I have this fortune-telling class and a flying class. Apparently, I'm the only one only one in our batch, taking that class, since I came in late. I also have this new advanced potion class. It sounds like a hard class, with the advanced thing added in it. I have no idea why it's called so.
Mental Note: ask Hermione why it's called advanced potion instead of just potion.
"So, here's how you do it…..everyone got it?" asked Prof Slughorn.
There was a low "yes" all over the classroom.
"Good! Now get to work"
"This potion class seems pretty fun" I exclaimed, while pouring a yellow powder in the pot.
"Advanced potion" Hermione(my lab partner) corrected.
"Yeah that. Why is it called so?" I asked.
"You see, only a few of the students are capable enough to learn something harder than the normal potion class. So for these people, the advanced potion class is introduced. It's kind of like an honors class" Hermione explained. "By the way, can you pass me the pink liquid over there?"
"Sure!" I walked across the room to get the pink potion. "Got it" I said to myself as I headed back to my table.
"Oh! The cork! I forgot about it" I turned around to get the cork and BAM!
"What the hell! Can't you see where you're going?" yelled an angry, masculine voice. "Look, what you've done."
All the eyes were on us (me and the person I bumped into) and everyone was laughing.
I looked up to see a lean boy scowling at me. I couldn't make out how he looked as he was all covered with the pink potion of mine. But he was pretty tall and was wearing a really expensive suit, which I destroyed.
"I'm so sorry" I exclaimed, "I didn't mean to…" I quickly grabbed a tissue and tried to wipe away the potion from his suit. He jerked away my hand.
"I'm really sorry…I should have been more caref.." he cut off.
"Of course you should have been. What were you thinking…you..nasty… MUD BLOOD!"
"I'm sor…" I was cut off again. This time it was Prof Slughorn.
"Stop. Mr. Malfoy, I'm sorry for the inconvenience. But this is not how you should talk to anyone"
Malfoy rolled his eyes and grumbled a "whatever" in reply.
"And Ms. Trotsky...you should be more careful with what's on your hand. This time it's a small accident, but it could have been worse "warned Prof Slughorn.
"Small?" Malfoy scowled. "You say this as a small accident? Can't you see what she did?"
The chuckling in the background rose at this statement.
"I'm really really sor…" no one cut me off this time. I stopped by myself. I froze as he glared at me, his ish blue eyes were furious with rage and anger; while mine were horror struck. He continued to stare at me. I tried to look away, but couldn't, I couldn't lift my eyes from his eyes. His face was now only a few inches apart from mine. I could even trace the fine lines on his face that appeared because of the scowling. His pale face was half covered with the pink potion.
Suddenly his eyes softened, seemed like he smelled something really sweet. There was no longer the anger in his eyes. Instead confusion replaced them. Probably not just confusion, there seemed something else hidden in those icy-blue eyes of his. Whatever it was, made his already handsome eyes, more handsome. Just then, the bell rang, and he stormed out of the classroom, leaving me where I was, dumbfounded.
"Come on, let's go Lily" Hermione said.
"Yeah sure" I replied absent-minded.
"Are you okay?" Hermione asked concerned.
"I'm fine…it's just that..his..his eyes..were…like so…so…so.."
"Scary?"
"No…not scary...they were so…soo…" damn, why can't I find the right word. "They were so…I can't really explain" I looked away, blushing.
"Insolent creature. We couldn't even complete the lab because of him." Hermione complained. "He's so mean. Calling you a 'mud blood,'" she said as we headed towards our next class.
"Oh! Yes! I was thinking about asking you. What's a mud blood though?"
"The actual word is Muggle born. They are people like you and me whose parents are normal wizards. That is not a wizard or witch. But bullies like Malfoy calls us 'mud blood'.'. It's a kind of discrimination or racism in the wizard world." She explained.
"Ah! I see. Any ways see you in the evening"
"You're skipping lunch?"
"Yeah! I've to take the flying lessons now."
"Okay. Bye. Take care, See you at your dorm then."
"See ya! Bye." And off I went towards the field.
