Title: Like Ice

Rating: PG13 for violence and language

Summary: This is the story of Corny, the boy who dreamed of something more, and Bella, the girl who used him.

A/N: This is a drabble series, so please don't review me telling me to make my chapters longer. Writing a chapter exactly 100 words long is a bit of an art to me, however if I get the chance I will write this as a full-length novel-type thing. Yes, it's about Cornelius Fudge and Bellatrix Black, and how my weird mind thinks they turned out the way they did.

Chapter Four: Warnings

"Arthur Weasley said you've been spotted talking to Bellatrix Black." His roommate spat. Corny was backed up against a wall; his classmates wanted answers.

"No, she got me the book I needed and just asked my name," He responded nervously.

A blonde scowled. "Knowledge is power, and Slytherins want power. Watch your back, that Black is a conniving sneak. She wants something from you."

Corny agreed not to talk to Bella again, but he had his fingers crossed. In his mind, Bella wasn't as bad as they made her out to be. All Bella wanted was to be his friend.
