Chapter Four: Burning Flirts
"I can't believe they actually added a home economics class into Hogwarts," I complained as I trudged down the hallway with my twin brother.
"You actually do well in it though, surprisingly," Max replied as he smiled to some people who were passing by.
I only winked slyly at a few cute girls which soon started to giggle madly. That's right, praise my power and looks. My soon once happy, mischievous mood disappeared as I remembered a certain person that was going to be in my class.
"But they're making the 1st and 2nd years take the class together, which means I have to see that damn girl's face again."
Max just stared at me oddly, "Who?"
I scratched my black hair from irritation of the thought of her, "Bell, that little bitch."
"That's no way you can talk about a girl that you just met for a minute at the ceremony," Max narrowed his eyes. He always hated the way I treated and thought about people.
If only he knew about the truth behind our families, it would probably be different. No, it wouldn't be, he's a Gryffindor for a reason and another reason why he doesn't fit in with our family. If my memory serves right, he is the first ever in our family to be placed in Gryffindor; my parents were not pleased, but didn't care at the same time since I was in Slytherin.
'That's all that matters,' they told me in a letter the day after our sorting ceremony last year.
"She's not hot enough for me to make a move on her," I said as an excuse to Max.
Max just rubbed his eyes, "Then you must be blind."
"Woah," I stopped the two of us before we could enter the classroom just ahead, "Don't tell me you like her." Max just looked away from my eyes which was now glaring at him, "Don't get close to that girl, it would only create complications."
"What in the world are you talking about, bro?"
I just ignored him as I felt anger grow from him talking back to me. Pushing through the door, I saw all the familiar faces of the first years that I just ignored anyway. Moving towards some hotties in the room, I proceeded to brush my hair back as I smiled at them which soon began to swoon over me. Max just left my side to talk to a small red head that was talking to another Gryffindor.
The one with black hair and purple eyes was exceptionally nice to look at, maybe I'll try and make her my next girlfriend with the other two from Hufflepuff. The small red head was quite a cutie as well, she seems quiet and scared but, she would totally go for me. I was about to make my move on her until our teacher burst through the door carrying cook books and a list with the students names.
He had short ginger hair with freckles covering his face. By his stance that he took at the front, he was not one to be main stage. In fact, he looked cowardly but still enthusiastic to be in front of us. Instantly, I wanted to make his life a living hell.
"Good day, class," he spoke uncertainly, "My name is Ron Weasely, but call me Mr. Weasely," I barely managed to hear him mumble to himself, "Can't believe I'm actually teaching now."
Guess he was a student back in the past, maybe when Voldemort was in reign? Who gives a bloody damn, I want to find some hot chicks and screw them.
"Please get into groups of three and grab your cook books then we'll begin."
Sighing, I turned to look for my brother but saw he was already grabbed by the red head and the black hair hotties. Lucky bint, they were my next choices. Looking around, I saw pretty much everybody were in groups already, all but two girls.
Bell and Fae were talking somewhat easily, and also the last two people. Of all people I had to be partnered with, it just had to be those two. Slicking my hair back, I walked smoothly towards Fae, not wanting to talk to Bell unless needed.
"What's up, Fae?"
She sneered at me instantly, "What the fuck do you want?"
"Ah, don't be like that. Besides, I'm the last person that can complete your group," I turned to look at Bell, and she had a disgusted yet curious face from Fae's reaction, "I'm not too happy being in your group either."
"I just want to survive and get a good grade in this class, so at this point; I really don't give a damn unless you purposely give me a bad mark."
Little miss perfect grades, hm? Apparently she doesn't even know about the venom between our families either. But she seemed to hate me just from that one glance at the ceremony, what the hell is her problem? Bell excused herself to grab the books for us as Mr. Weasely began to write on the board that we were going to make peppermint imps, by the look on Bell's face, she was extremely excited. Simplistic and easy to read, I smiled slyly at the thought. This will come in handy to manipulate and ruin her life.
Fae went off to get the ingredients as Bell prepped the table with the pots, cauldrons and cooking utensils on the conjoined table with Max's group. Sliding around the table, I moved to the small red headed girl who was reading intently the cook book. Under my cloak, I wordlessly placed a spell on Fae, Bell, Max and the black haired hottie just in case they wanted to interrupt me and the cutie.
"Well, hello there," I said as I breathed into her ear from behind her back.
She blushed brightly and leaned away from me, "Is there something you want?"
I only smiled from her red checks as I moved closer, "I was wondering if you needed any help, that's all."
She frowned as she turned back to the book and began grabbing measuring cups to continue working, "I'm fine, thanks."
"Ah, don't be like that," I grabbed onto her shoulder, and looked at her face to face, "My name's Ren, by the way."
She pushed me violently away, making me almost hit Max as she frowned, "I'm Trinity."
I was shocked for a moment but smiled my toothy grin, "I like a girl on fire, Trinity. What do you say we hang out sometime? Privately."
At this point, Bell and Fae we're glaring more than just daggers at me, and I presumed they finally realized the spell I placed on them so they couldn't intervene. I gave them a small smile as they growled and could do nothing but continue working. The black haired Gryffindor also slammed down the ingredients she was carrying to the table. Max tightened his fists as well, once again, not pleased with my behavior, but they can all go suck a cock. And for the black haired Gryffindor, she can suck on mine after Trinity. Turning back to Trinity, she was still frowning at me.
"I'd rather not," She then spun around and started working with the food.
"You look like a fun girl," I responded striding forward, ignoring the much harsher glares from Fae, "Let's go out at lunch," When I was close enough, I wrapped my arm around her and rested my hand on her hip as I finished, "And have some fun."
She pushed my hand off immediately as bright blush returned to her cheeks, "I'd really rather not."
I felt slight anger grow in me, but pushed it back, "And why the hell not? I can show you a good time."
"I don't want a good time from you."
"Oh, really now? There's really no reason to be shy."
"Get away from me," she was beginning to get angry and I loved it, but was irked at the same time, bitch just wouldn't put out, would she?
"We can make this a lot easier if your just agree. I don't give up on a girl easily when they're hot like you."
"Well too bad because I'm not interested in you or what you have to offer."
"And why is that?" I trapped her then between my arms and the table behind her, "All the girls line up for just more, and I'm just giving you a little jump ahead of them."
"Well I won't be, so back off."
"I'm persistent," grabbing onto her chin, I moved so we were just inches away, "I won't leave you till you give me a good reason."
Once again, she pushed me away glaring daggers, "Because I'm telling you to fuck off!"
At this point, people outside of our groups, including Mr. Weasely, were starting to stare at us. I just sighed harshly as I walked back to Fae and Bell who were working the entire time. I felt their anger easily, however since they couldn't do anything because of my spell. Actually, it feels like they weakened it, so I just ended it but they still couldn't do anything because of the on lookers. Leaning over the table quickly, I whispered:
"I still haven't given up on you yet, Trinity."
When I moved away, she sighed heavily and went back to work with Max and the other Gryffindor girl. Bell smashed a bowl next to me and handed me a spoon.
"You're lucky everybody is watching right now, otherwise I would be kicking your ass right now. Now get working."
I growled back at her as I took the spoon, "Don't tell me what to do, cunt."
Fae then bumped into my arm purposely as she mixed the fire herbs in the cauldron, "Just shut the fuck up and cook."
Hissing at the both of them, I began working as well from the stare that Mr. Frecklefaggot gave me. Knowing this recipe by heart, I also instructed Bell and Fae how to properly make the peppermint and how to put the magic flame juice instead. They begrudgingly did everything out of respects of getting good marks, and I couldn't get low marks otherwise my parents would be giving me and earful. They didn't care about what I did outside of school, but they still want to make sure I get good grades just like Max does naturally, smart bint.
During the whole time we were cooking, I noticed that Max was taking glances at Bell. Normally I wouldn't care who he crushed on and I would decide how to tease him about it, but he chose her out of all the girls in this damn school. The worst part though was I also noticed Bell looking at Max when he wasn't looking. They did the perfect little, she looks and he doesn't see, then vice versa which you only see in movies. I gagged.
After the peppermint imps were finally done cooling down and appeared in the perfect light green hue, we left them on our counter waiting for the rest of the class to finish. For Trinity's batch, it was just slightly darker, but much better than others around us. I think one of them was ready to explode which made me smile excitedly.
"Alright, now we all get to try your finished product," Mr. Weasely instructed, "I'll be grading you on the flames that are created when you breathe out and what color they are. If any of them fail and burn your mouth, make sure you have somebody in your group that can cast a burn-heal spell right away."
A few people in the other groups were not too happy about having to experiment on themselves with their final product. I just smiled happily waiting to watch them yell in pain from their failures. As for my group, Bell volunteered right away and Fae was designated healer. Max was the tester and the black haired girl, whose name is Tech which I just overheard, was the healer. Trinity just silently thanked Max on the side.
When Mr. Weasely arrived to our table, Max went first and breathed a small red flame, they were awarded a 90%. Tech and Trinity then took some right after knowing it was safe. Any normal human being wouldn't try it from the past displays from the other groups. One actually exploded in the tester's mouth and was sent to the infirmary, I couldn't stop laughing for a while after that.
Bell then took our peppermint imp after the teacher signaled that he was ready. Brilliant orange, yellow and red flames appeared as she sighed then shortly laughed right after from the display. The whole class stared in amazement and wanted to try it out. We obviously got a 100% as the whole class began to line up to try our amazing candy. As I was passing them out, I made a few advances on two other hotties along with Tech and Trinity whom just walked away quickly.
Right as the bell rang; Trinity and Tech busted out of the door first not giving me the chance to talk to them more. Just got to wait for Dark Arts class after lunch then. I walked out of the door with Max who was now lecturing me.
"You honestly had to fucking do that?"
"Chill, bro, it's not like I'm going to rape her or something," I responded as I placed my hands behind my head.
Max just tugged onto his hair, "I've seen you do horrid shit to women in the past, but that's taking it way too far when she obviously said to leave her alone!"
"Well, I'm not a goody-two-shoes or a romantic like you, women were created to please us males anyway."
Max finally had enough with my talk and just stormed off without saying another word. I couldn't help but laugh a little from his outburst from my simple comment. I still hated the fact that he and Bell were secretly crushing on each other at the same time. This is only going to get harder from here on now.
When I was about to enter the cafeteria for some lunch, Bell hurried through the large door frame carrying her bag and books under her arm. Before passing by me, she quickly stopped me before we had an audience and began to stare me down.
"In the Dark Arts class, if we get a chance to duel, I'm challenging you and kicking your fucking ass."
Right after that, she stormed off just like Max into the hallway with her cloak trailing behind her from her speed. I couldn't help but laugh at the mere thought of dueling in the dark arts. She has no idea what she had gotten herself into.
