I must've been staring at Blaine for a very long time,because I hear an angry and unpleasent voice behind me.
"Get out of my way Hummel!"
Even if I wanted to move I couldn't,I was still looking at Blaine as he was walking hand in hand with Quinn towards the castle.
"Expelliarmus"
I realize what was happening too late and I end up somehow on the ground.I see Sebastian laughing at me as he goes to his friends. I'm usually able to disarm him first, before I make a fool of myself,but today I just couldn't do it,I wasn't fast enough,I got distracted by my unrealistic thoughts.
I get up and I grab my things and start to make my way to the castle.
The hours go by without anything interesting happening to me,that's just another typical day in my life.
Right now the Sorting Hat Ceremony for first years is taking place in the Great Hall,yet I'm still in my room.
You may be wondering why I'm not with my fellow Ravenclaws or how did I manage to avoid the headmaster.
Well,I'm not at the Great Hall,because of the Slytherins,well and Sebastian of course,they never let me eat in peace,I always have lunch or dinner at the very last minute,if I wanna come back in one piece.
Also all of this is possible thanks to my mom's cloak of invisibility.
She used to say that I should only use it for good.
I don't know if I'm doing that or if I'm just being selfish.
Anyway…It's the only thing I have left of her.
It may sound silly but when I use it I feel like she's watching over me,like she's still with me.
I check the time and I notice that if I wanna eat something today,I should probably go downstairs.
As it's my last year at Hogwarts,my bedtime is more reasonable given my situation,which means I don't have to use my cloak unless it's an emergency.
I figure by now most, if not all students should be in their rooms ,so I grab my wand and my cloak and I leave my common room.
I pass the Great Hall and I keep walking till I'm at the school's kitchen.I knock on the door four times and then,one of the house-elves that works there let's me in.
"Hello,Mr Hummel"
"You know you can call me Kurt,I told you before"
"I'm very sorry,but I can't it's the rules"
"It's okay"
"The usual?"
"Yes,please"
After a couple of minutes,I see her coming back with my meal.
My usual is basically leftovers.I know,pretty lame,right?
But it's really not that bad,you would be surprised by the amount of food that the students don't eat.
"Thank you very much"
"My pleasure,Mr Hummel,have a good evening"
I wanted to say something but I just smile and leave.
As I'm starting to go up some stairs I hear giggles. I'm trying to open my cloak but ,for the second time today,I'm too late.
"Look what we have here"
"I almost didn't see him there,thanks Hunter"
"No problem,Sebastian"
"Don't tell me you got food from the kitchen,it's hilarious"
I ignore them and start walking and I regret it in a second
"Where do you think you are going?"
"Let me go"
"Don't think so,this is for not moving earlier Hummel"
"Cru-"
When I hear just that bit of the spell,I grab my wand,or I try to cause it's not in my pocket.I panick because I can't really defend myself and I know what's coming.
"Crucio"
I start to feel so much pain that I think I might die at any moment.
"Flipendo!Expelliarmus!"
"What the hell?Hunter get up!"
"Leave him alone,Sebastian"
"Really?That's all you got?"
"You don't want me to report you to the headmaster or else you won't be playing quidditch this season and your father,well you know"
"Your opinion doesn't matter"
"Try me"
"Fine,you wont be around to protect him another time"
I heard the conversation but I still wasn't sure who saved me from those fools.
"Are you okay,Kurt?"
