Secret Love; My Escape

Chapter 10: YOU ALREADY KISSED!


"Rosalie GET UP!" I heard my sister order from somewhere beyond my haze of sleep. I groaned and rolled over, burying myself deeper in the blankets. I felt her poke my side. "GET UP!"

"Riley I'm sleepy" I grumbled, pulling just my head from my cucoon.

"Not our fault you were out till all hours of the night... what were you doing anyway?" She asked.

I smiled as I buried my head again. "I can't say... but I wouldn't go near the back shelves in the library if I was you" I made up.

I heard her sigh again and then there was silence.

That lasted until my blankets were ripped off and Ginny jumped on my stomach. "GET UP GET UP GT UP GET UP GET UP GET UP!" she chanted and poked my ribs.

"ARGH! GET IT OFF ME!" I squealed, rolling over and toppling us both onto the floor. I glared at the small, red head and rubbed my shoulder. "You're so annoying"

"I have 6 older brothers, I have a lot of experience waking people up" she shrugged and flipped her red hair over her shoulder. "Anyway, I'm gonna go find Dean. See you ladies later" She stood up, dusted off her uniform. I grumbled profanities under my breath and got to my feet. One glance out of the window told me I should have stayed in bed.

"Awwh it's raining and everything... couldn't you have just left me in bed?" I whined, dragging myself to the bathroom to pretty up for the day.

"If I'd done that, you would have yelled at me for not waking you up" Riley rolled her big, green eyes and smoothed her ponytail. "Either way I lose" she rolled her eyes.

"Love you little sis" I smiled. She smiled back and pulled on her school shoes. "So what's going on with you and Mr Potter?" I tried to be as tactful as I could about the situation. They'd been very close since Halloween, barely out of each others sight. It was my duty as a sister to pry.

"Oh nothing" she replied with a sigh. "No matter what I do or how available I make myself, he doesn't notice"

"Are you kidding?" I laughed, washing my face and reaching blindly for the towel. "I've barely seen him without you since the dance... maybe he's waiting for you to say something?" I grabbed my uniform from the end of my bed and changed.

"Well he's gonna be waiting a long time... I'm not saying anything" She folded her arms. "What about you and Justin then? You went to the dance with him didn't you?"

I burst out laughing. "Justin? I almost forgot who you were talking about for a second!" I exclaimed. "No definitely not into Justin" I rolled my eyes.

"Anyone then?" She picked up her bag and shouldered it.

"Nope" I shook my head. My mind flickered the jacket that was tossed over the end of my bed and I smiled. "No one"

"You sure about that?" She raised an eyebrow.

"Of course" I shot her a weird look and picked up my bag. "Let's go, loser" I messed up her ponytail as I walked past her. She screech in annoyance and ran into the bathroom.

I met Harry, Ron and Hermione at the bottom of the stairs. I met Harry, Ron and Hermione at the bottom of the stairs.

"I don't care Ronald, I'm not helping you again" Hermione snapped at Ron. I glanced at Harry.

"Again?" I rolled my eyes. He just shook his head. We were so beyond Ron and Hermione's bickering one of us was gonna snap soon I knew it. It had gotten worse since the dance, if that was even possible. I looked away from the annoying ones and grinned at Harry "Anyway, Riley's on her way down... she's just prettying herself up for you – OW!" I cringed as she clipped me up the side of the head.

"OI!" Riley said from right behind me.

"Whoops" I muttered with a smirk. Harry's cheeks blushed red slightly and he hid a grin. Yeah he so liked her.

"But Hermione, I need your help... I don't – "

"Of for the sake of Merlin's shiny knickers! Will you two stop torturing us all and kiss already?" I snapped at them, pushing them both toward the portrait hole by their shoulders. Both of them went bright red and I glanced between them, half standing in the common room and half standing out. I was waiting for Hermione to smack my arm and Ron to start sputtering about how he didn't know what I was talking about.

Instead they just went red and looked everywhere but at each other or me.

"Oh my GOD!" I shrieked, causing people to look over. Both of them grabbed my arms and yanked me from the common room. "YOU two have already kissed! Look how red you are!" I laughed gleefully as I shrugged my robes back over my shoulders.

"It was the dance ok?" Hermione looked out of the corner of her eyes. "I..."

"Yeah just the dance... and Hermione looked amazing..." Ron trailed off and I looked between the pair. I was walking backward, not looking where I was going. This was too priceless to miss.

"Then there was the other day in the library..."

"Hermione!" Ron exclaimed.

"Sorry" She shook her head.

"After potions as well..." Ron added.

"RON!" Hermione squeaked.

"Sorry" He muttered.

I howled with laughter. "How can you two deny you don't like each other now?" I laughed. "Look how red you are!"

"You can kiss someone you don't like, you know" Hermione said hotly.

"Yeah, what she said" Ron agreed.

I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, of course you can... but you don't see me going around, snogging Malfoy at dances, do yo-WOAH" I let out a shout as my back hit something solid and I started to topple over.

Two hands caught me around the waist and I stopped falling. "Th-hank you..." I stammered, turning around to see who I'd almost killed.

My eyes met silvery blue ones and I stared in shock.

"Why would I ever snog you, Vanderbilt?" He sneered, but the sneer didn't match his eyes. They were too amused to be annoyed.

"Why would I want to snog you?" I exclaimed. "Get your hands off me, by the way" I demanded.

He glanced at his hands and then back at me. "As you wish" He nodded and let me go.

I fell to the ground in a heap. "Oh you ASSHOLE!" I screeched, looking up at his smirking features. "So dead... You're so... so... dead" I shook my head and took the hands that Ron and Hermione were offering.

"Come now Roe... Killing in the hallways is strictly prohibited" Hermione reminded me she dragged me away. I rolled my eyes and glanced behind me as I walked.

Malfoy was still smirking after us. I flipped him off and followed my friends.

"So... does this make you two together now?" I asked Ron and Hermione as we sat down at the table. Their cheeks just went red again and I laughed, heaping my plate with pancakes.

Harry and Riley joined us minutes later and sat on the other side of me. Across from me Ginny sat with Dean Thomas, talking quietly between themselves. I groaned.

I was totally the 6th wheel in this little love fest.

I dropped my fork on my plate and rested my head in my hands. Not to be bitter or anything, but it's kind of awkward being the only single on left. I glanced across the hall and saw Draco talking quietly to Blaise about something.

Blaise slammed his fist against the table and scowled. Draco shook his head, also scowling. I raised my eyebrow, wondering what that was about.

"Wonder what their arguing about" Harry murmured, reading my mind.

"I was just thinking that" I murmured back. I watched as Draco glared into his breakfast then got up and storm away. I wanted to go after him but with my friends around I couldn't. I sighed and dropped my head to the table.

I'd rather be there with him than here being nauseated by couples that's for sure.


Plea's Note: MY FELLOW FANFICTIANS. I AM APOLOGISING TODAY FOR MY LACK OF UPDATES. WHAT I DID WAS WRONG, YOU DEPEND ON ME FOR A FIX AND I FAILED TO DELIVER. I DO HOPE THAT AN EXTRA CHAPTER AFTER THIS ONE WILL MAKE UP FOR ANYONE I MAY HAVE OFFENDED.
