I thought I should elaborate on the Kendra Al relationships so I'm gonna try doing a chapter from Al's point of view. Tell me how it ends up. I would also like to thank MaryMoo123 for reviewing. And a special thanks to Juliette's solo act for being a voice to how my writing is going. YOu should go read her story, Bright Eyes. So yeah, without any other interuptions, here's chapter 4.
I looked over at the stairs to the girls dorm waiting for Kendra to appear. When she did , I started to get anxious. She had a Cheshire cat grin on and that was never good. It usually ended up making a kid cry. Or something along those lines.
I guess I should explain some things. I'm totally badmouthing my girlfriend. But there's a reason for that. I am actually in love with Lake. But I know she doesn't feel the same about me. Kendra started showing an interest in me so I jumped at the chance to date her. And the fact that Lake hated her was just an added bonus.
"Guess what, Allie," Kendra giggled, sitting down on my lap.
It took all of my self control to not push her off. "What?"
"I just saw Scorpius and Lake in a rather compromising position on Lake's bed," Kendra said, twirling her one of her curls around her finger. I guess she thought it was cute, but I thought it was just annoying.
"Wait, what do you mean, 'compromising position'?" I asked, jealousy bubbling in the pit of my stomach.
"Scorpius was on his back and Lake was straddling him. And they were smiling and giggling. And Scorpius was blushing," Kendra said, looking giddy.
"They're really close friends, I'm sure it was innocent. I mean Lake has a date with Lukas," I said, his name like poison on the tip of my tongue.
"Whatever you say. I'm going to go find Asha and Jaycee," Kendra said. She tried to kiss me, but I turned my head and she kissed my jaw.
I thought I saw a flash of hurt hit her eyes, but I may have been wrong. Before I could ask about it, she was skipping out the door. Odd girl, that one.
"Hey," Jakob Parkinson said, sitting down beside me on one of the many couches in the common room.
"Hey Jakob," I said slightly, thinking about the Lake and Scorpius thing.
"You look very distracted. Care to talk about it?" he asked, looking at the green flames in the fireplace lick the white bricks of the wall.
"What I'm about to tell you is a complete secret and you can't tell anybody. Not even Lucifer. Are we clear?" I asked.
Jakob looked slightly torn but agreed with me anyways. He turned to me, and looked more excited than a kid in Zonko's.
"I have feelings for Lake," I whispered quietly, hoping he heard me. I really don't think I could repeat it.
"You like Lake?" Jakob asked, looking excited again.
"Yeah, a lot. But I'm to scared to tell her about it. She doesn't feel the same way anyways so it doesn't matter," I said in defeat.
Before Jakob could respond a shrill voice cut through the peaceful common room.
"ALBUS SEVERUS POTTER! YOU OPEN THIS DOOR RIGHT BLOODY NOW!" a very pissed Rose shouted from outside.
"Oh hell, what's got her wand in a twist?" Jakob asked, glancing longingly at the boy's dorm stairway wondering if he should make a break for it or not.
"I think I know," I said as I went to open the entrance to the common room.
When I opened it, my heart gave a painful lurch. Rose was standing there, her eyes brimming with unshed tears and her face slightly blotchy. I pulled her in and wrapped my arms around her. She released her tears and clung to me.
"Kendra told me about Scorpius and Lake. How aren't you more upset?" she hiccupped into my shoulder.
I looked over at an uncomfortable looking Jakob and asked, "Jakob, would you go up to the girl's dorm and get Lake and Scorpius?"
"Yeah, I got this," Jakob said, looking relived to leave the room. I don't blame him, I would imagine it was rather awkward for him to be in here.
After a couple of minutes they came down. Scorpius looked devastated and Lake had on a blank, cold expression. It was rather frightening. I was almost afraid of her. Almost.
"What did you guys do?" Rose whispered in a hoarse voice. It broke my heart all over again. I put my arm around her.
"What did that bitch tell you?" Lake asked with absolute ice in her voice.
"Kendra told me that she walked in on you and Scorpius getting ready to start shagging," Rose said, whimpering.
"Huh?" was Scorpius' intelligent response.
"You heard what she said. Is it true?" I said, venom in my voice.
"What? Do you really think that Scorpius and I would do that?" Lake asked, her voice giving a slight quiver. Nobody else saw it, but I saw her heart breaking in her eyes.
"I don't know. Tell me if you did or not," I said, not breaking her fierce gaze.
She didn't say a word she just walked out of the common room and into the corridor. I felt my heart shatter into pieces, I couldn't seem to stop making her cry.
When I looked over at Scorpius, I saw a mixture of emotions in his eyes. Anger, sadness, and maybe , just maybe, love?
The thought of him being in love with Lake made me see red. I don't think I was in complete control of my body movements when I launched myself in Scorpius' direction.
Reviews make me as happy as Dumbledore with wool socks :) So review.
