Chapter 8
A/N: Sorry, for not updating! Hmm, quite a lot of reviews! Awesome!
Well, it seems like majority are not for Bella/Edward but there are still a few. I'm not decided yet, I'm not sure if this story will have romance!
I was supposed to update earlier but fanfic has problems and it won't allow me to update :(
Oh well, on with the story!
Enjoy :)
Bella/Whitney's POV
What.
The.
Hell.
Those were the first words that came into my head.
What the hell is Edward doing? Kissing me? With his girlfriend right there!
I got my wand from my sleeve and pointed it on his chest lightly.
"Impedimenta." I whispered and he was knocked backwards by a strong force (a.k.a. my super awesome magic).
"How dare you!" Tanya exclaimed at me. She used her super speed and landed on top of me.
"I'm gonna rip your head off bitch!" she exclaimed.
And this time I was scared. She crushed both my arms, which are very painful indeed. I can't use my wand and wandless magic would take some time.
Oh shit.
"Whitney!" Harry exclaimed. He and the others jumped off the carriage.
"Stay away from this," Tanya hissed at them.
"Do as she says," I managed to choke out.
"Whitney…" Hermione said, pure fear in her eyes.
"Now Tanya," Carlisle started "There is no need for this. You know Bella, I mean Whitney, had no intention of kissng Edward."
"What is going on here?"
I looked a bit to my side to see Professor Snape standing there. How nice. I was going to be killed in the person who probably hates me the most. You know, next to Voldemort.
"I believe you should release Miss Black right now." Snape said coldly and Tanya suddenly stood up.
"Albus won't be too happy about this."Esme sighed.
"Obviously." Snape sneered at her.
Ron and Harry helped me up. My arms hurt like hell. This is why I hate vampires.
"I believe that Mr. Potter, his friends, and the Cullens should go ahead to the castle. I will take Miss Black to the Headmaster's office." Snape said emotionlessly.
Carlisle nodded and he and his family sat on the carriage. Harry, Ron, Hermione, Luna, and Neville joined them too and they were quite squished. The thestral had not trouble pulling them though. Pity, I wanted someone to be pushed off. Preferably one with no heart beat.
When they were out of sight Snape turned to me.
"Follow me Miss Black. And please, try not to hurt yourself even more." Snape said and I rolled my eyes. Hello? Person with crushed bones here! Don't I have the right to act hurt?
I never realized how long it took to walk to the castle. No wonder they made the students ride carriages. I thought it was just for show.
Our footsteps echoed in the hallway as the two of us walked. No one was around right now; they were all at the feast.
We walked up the steps to the headmaster's office until we came to a stop in front of the gargoyle statue.
Snape sighed "Licorice Wands."
The gargoyle spinned around, revealing a new staircase.
"Go up and stay there Miss Black." Snape said.
"Pardon me Professor," I tried to be polite. Snape turned around with an annoyed look on his face.
"What do you want?"
"My arms, they're kinda…crushed." I told him.
He sighed and wordlessly healed my arms. He pointed towards the staircase and I nodded. His cape flew behind him as he walked away. Shakespeare wanna-be much?
I went up the stairs and admired the little knick-knacks that could be found in my dear headmaster's office.
"Miss Whitney Black?" a squeaky voice asked. I turned around to see a house-elf, no taller than the table it was standing beside.
"Yes?" I replied.
"Knobber has been told to bring food for Miss Black. Is this food suitable?" he bowed and held up the plate to me. I actually laughed in amusement. There was too much actually! But I wasn't going to upset the poor house-elf.
"Yes Knobber, it is perfect. Thank-you." I smiled at it and it bowed and left the room.
Nice house-elf.
When Professor McGonagall entered the room the plate of food was still untouched.
"Not hungry, Miss Black?" she asked in her usual strict tone.
"No Professor, I ate quite a lot at the train." I lied. She nodded at me and told me to sit down for a while. She said that Professor Dumbledore would be with me just as soon as the feast was over.
I looked down on the floor, what was going to happen next? Was I going to be sent away again? Were the Cullens going to be sent away? Would this little meeting be pointless? I don't know.
"Ah, Miss Black. I was told that you would be here. I didn't see you at the feast." Dumbledore said as he entered the room. He was humming some random even I didn't know.
"Professor Snape instructed me to come here." I said calmly.
"Ah, I know that as well. I believe a house-elf was instructed to bring you food as well. But you have not seemed to touch it." His eyes twinkled as he said that.
"I'm not really hungry," I shrugged.
"Lemon Drop my dear?" Professor Dumbledore asked but I shook my head.
"Professor?" I started.
"Yes Miss Black?" he tilted his head at me.
"Why am I here?" I asked him.
"Why are you here Miss Black?" his eyes were twinkling once more. I smiled slightly and rolled my eyes. Same old Professor Dumbledore.
"Is it wise to call Black?" I heard Snape's voice from outside.
"Well he is her father!" Professor McGonagall's voice said from outside as well.
"At least call someone who would be a little more intelligent!" Snape exclaimed as he threw the doors open.
"Perhaps you can call Mr. Lupin." Dumbledore suggested calmly. Snape nodded and Professor McGonagall left to use the floo network.
"You called Albus?" Carlisle asked as he and his family came in.
"Ah, welcome Mr. Cullen." Dumbledore greeted warmly.
"What is she doing here?" Rosalie rolled her eyes.
"Please," Dumbledore's eyes twinkled again "Have a seat."
Only Alice, Rosalie, Emmett, and Esme sat down. The rest opted to stand.
"I believe something happened this night." Dumbledore started and I looked at Tanya.
"Albus," Uncle Remus said as he entered the room "Is there a problem?"
Uncle Remus looked at me and frowned. Nice to see you too!
"Please have a seat Mr. Lupin." Dumbledore said and Uncle Remus hesitantly sat down.
"Why are we here Professor Dumbledore?" Esme asked sweetly and Dumbledore smiled at her.
"I believe one of your clan has…threatened Miss Black here." All the Cullens' heads turned to Tanya. Uncle Remus growled and I continued to look down.
"It isn't my fault that slut kissed my boyfriend!" Tanya exclaimed.
"I did not kiss him." I gripped the arm rest of the chair.
"Oh yes you did! You were all over him!" Tanya exclaimed.
"You're just jealous because 'the love of your life' likes someone else!" I yelled at her and she growled at me. I think she was going to pounce at me but she was somehow frozen.
"There is no need for violence Miss Tanya." Dumbledore said coldly with a hard look on his face.
Whoa.
Mean Dumbledore. Me-likey.
I looked at Uncle Remus who was glaring at the Cullens.
"Mr. Cullen I want you to understand that when I asked you to help us out, my students would not be in danger." Dumbledore continued.
"They're not Albus. I promise that this won't happen again." Carlisle said.
"It better not." Uncle Remus whispered to himself.
"I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble Bella." Esme told me sadly.
"Whitney." I said, still not looking up.
"Of course," Esme smiled "I'm sorry Whitney."
"Well I'm sorry too. For causing everyone so much pain. But unfortunately, I cannot accept your apology Mrs. Cullen." I said in a formal tone. I stood up and faced them all bravely.
"Professors, Cullens, Uncle Remus." I nodded at them "I believe I will go to my room now."
"Of course Miss Black." Dumbledore said.
I went down the stairs and walked slowly to my dorm. I just really wanted to be alone right now. Why did the Cullens insist on barging back into my life? I don't want them around!
It was eerie as I walked down. And not exactly the good kind. Suddenly, my sight started blurring and I felt myself fall to the ground.
"My Lord, we have received word the daughter of Sirius Black has returned." a death eater said. I wasn't exactly Voldemort, it was like I was watching the scene but they still couldn't see me.
"You shall recruit her." Voldemort commanded.
"That's the problem my Lord, the only reason why she left was because she didn't want to be recruited." The death eater said shakily.
"Wrong move," Voldemort's eyes went even thinner "Avada Kedavra."
Lord Voldemort knows all. Soon Whitney Black, you will be eliminated.
Oh damn.
A/N: Yes a cliffy. Sorry! Review guys :)
