There was a man. Boy to be exact.
His white suit covered in red stains. Blood stains. His hair whiter then clouds on a sunshining day.
His eyes are the brightest silver. His chin pointed, his look... Distorted into pain. On his right ring finger was a family crest ring.
Next to him was a girl. Hair was the color of blood. Eyes were bluer then the ocean. Her white silk dress was covered in blood. Her blood. Her face was in pain and she was holding her stomach.
Then suddenly, the blond boy was hold a blood stained dagger. The handle was a snake wrapped around a cross. Silver of course. The boy was crying, and then he was laughing.
The red head screamed in pain as the boy once again stabbed her. This time in the left shoulder. And then in the chest. Just above the left breast. Where her heart was.
She screamed her last scream then fell to the ground lifeless. The boy knelt down beside her. He cut open her chest, and yanked her heart out. Her blood dripped from his hand as he held the heart. He then bit into it, but then there was another person there. Cloaked, and holding a sword. The Sword of Gryfindor. The cloaked man swung the sword in the air. The blond fell to the ground. He too, dead. The cloaked man started to laugh. Then he brought the sword up to his throat-
"Albus! Albus!"
Albus jolted up in his bed. One arm wrapped in his sheets, the other clutching his throat as those he had been choked.
"Bloody hell mate. We thought you were being murdered."
Albus looked to his right. Sean stood still in his night clothes. Albus looked around him. All the boys were awake, they too in their night clothes.
"Wha-" Albus shook his head. "What time is it?" He asked Sean.
Sean looked over at his clock. Then looked back at Albus.
"Six twenty."
Albus nodded, then looked around again. "Did I wake all you guys up?"
Travis who was the only one dressed, shook his head. "No, everybody was getting up. But then you started screaming."
Sean cleared his throat. "Don't worry it was a manly scream. Have you even hit puberty yet though?"
Albus looked at his long timed friend. "Manly scream. Er, and yes. Though I wish not to talk about that at this moment." Sean nodded, and retreated to his bed. Travis clapped his hands together.
"Alright you ninnies, go back to getting ready for the day. And don't go about telling that Albus had started screaming like a girl in his dream." Travis smiled at Albus, then finished getting ready.
Albus returned the smile, and turned to Sean.
"I thought it was a "manly" scream?"
Sean shrugged, "I didn't want you to worry. So, are you sure you've hit puberty?" Albus growled and threw a pillow at him. Sean threw his hands in the air. "Just asking. Oh and you might wanna start getting dressed."
Albus shrugged. He had an hour and twenty minutes before breakfast started. But what the hell.
Albus slipped from underneath his sheets and got dressed. After he had messily combed his hair with his fingers, he walked down to the common room where he found Rose walking around aimlessly.
"Going insane, Rose?" He called out from the doorway.
Rose spun on him and glowered.
Albus rolled his eyes and crossed he arms against his chest as he walked up to her. "Great, what did I do now?"
Rose slapped him on his face.
"Ooh!" Many Gryfindors whispered as they entered the common room from the dormitories.
Albus touched the red hand print where she had slapped him. "And that was for?" He asked, rubbing his cheek.
"When were you going to tell me that you were SCREAMING in your sleep, Albut Potter?"
"Well, I-"
"You weren't going to tell me were you?"
Albus shrugged, "Its fine. Doesn't matter."
Rose pointed her forefinger at him. "Don't you dare tell me it doesn't matter."
Albus sighed. "How did you find out anyway?"
"I woke up early and decided to come down here and read. As I was reading Travis bursted through the boys dormitories. When I asked what was wrong he said that you were screaming bloody murder in your sleep, and so he was going to get help."
Albus nodded after she finished.
"So," Rose went on. "You gonna tell me what the dream was about anyway?"
Albus thought back to the dream. It made no sense whatsoever, but it was too weird to tell Rose.
"Nothing."
Rose nodded, and didn't push him any further. "Okay, well we have nearly an hour before breakfast. What'ya wanna do?" She asked rocking back and forth on her heels.
Albus licked his bottom lip; raised and lowered one shoulder.
"Ah, Albus. I was looking for you." Sean announce from the doorway. Albus turned around and smiled. "First it was a "manly" scream, then it was a "girly" scream, and now it was "screaming bloody murder"." He said clapping Sean on the back.
Rose groaned while Sean chuckled. "Ha, I would prefer "bloody murder" if I were you."
Albus agreed. "Anyway, what should we do for an hour? Just hang out here, or?"
"Well, I'm going to the library." Said Rose picking up her school bag.
It was Sean's turn to groan. "Oh why? Why do you go to the bloody library in the first place?"
"Because it's a peacful place." Rose answered simply. Not even waiting for another word; Rose shuffled out the portrait hole.
"Oh well," Sean jumped on the big red couch. "What do you wanna do?"
Albus thought. The cloaked man... The Sword of Gryfindor. What did that mean? And the boy and girl?
"Albus!"
Albus mentally shook his head. "Sorry, mate."
Sean laughed. "You keep daydreaming, man." Albus really needed to stop. "So," Albus asked as he sat down on one of the two chairs. "What are the classes today?"
Sean thought for a minute, and then said:
"We have Defense Against the Dark Arts with Ravenclaws, Astronomy in the building today with Ravenclaws, and Herbology with Slytherins."
Albus groaned loudly. "Ugh, Slytherins."
Sean nodded, "Yeah. Well, I say lets start heading to the Great Hall. Only forty minutes left, and some are starting to head out."
Albus looked by the portrait hole. Many students were starting to leave. Most likely to go to the Great Hall.
"Yeah your right. Come on." Albus jumped from his seat as Sean did the same.
"Good, I'm getting starved."
Rose sat in the library at her favorite table. Reading a very knowledgeable book about Nicolas Flamel.
Rose breathed a sigh of realief. She was in her favorite place. Nobody was there at that moment, and so it was completely quiet. Peacefuly quiet. The best kind. Rose was in such a realaxful trance; she didn't even realize it when someone walked inside the library.
"Hello." A friendly voice said to her.
Rose looked up from her book. Her breath caught.
Travis stood in front of her. His school bag was hanging from his right shoulder and his coat was draped over his left arm.
"Erm, hello." She smiled, closing her book. Travis gestured to an empty chair. "May I?"
Rose stuttered, "Y-yeah. Of course."
Travis smiled, and sat down across from her.
"Travis I-" Rose started, but Travis cut her off.
"No. Rose I'm sorry. I shouldn't have gotten so upset with you about not liking me back. Its just, your really pretty. And I kinda got, well, disappointed. So, I'm really sorry."
Rose beamed. "Travis, thank you. That means a lot."
Travis chuckled, "Of course. So, do you maybe wanna walk to breakfast with me?"
Rose didn't even think. "Yes!" Her ears turned red, and she cleared her throat. "I mean, yeah, sure."
Travis stood up and held out his hand. Rose blushed and reached for it.
As Travis and Rose were walking to the Great Hall, Scorpius and his gang were strutting to the exact destination.
"Oh look. Its the ginger and the blockhead." Said Scorpius coldy. Mauro and Peter bursted out laughing. Rose rolled her eyes. She didn't care anymore, but Travis on the otherhand growled at the Slytherins.
"Ooh, I think I hit a nerve. What, don't like me talking about your girlfriend?" Mocked Scorpius as he entered the Great Hall.
Travis made a lunge for him, but Rose held him back. "Don't. Forget about it."
Travis nodded, and they continued their way to the Great Hall.
When they reached the Gryfindor table, Jessica smiled and scooted over to make room.
When Rose sat down next to her, Jessica smirked at Travis. It was the most fake smile Rose had ever seen.
"Whats wrong?" Whispered Rose to Jessica.
Jessica frowned, "How are you still friends with him?"
"He apologized."
Jessica scoffed. "Whatever."
Albus was in a busy conversation with Sean and Travis when the Headmaster approached them.
"Excuse me Mr. Potter. May I have a word?"
Albus looked around. "Er, yes, sure. Just me?"
Slughorn nodded. Albus waved at his friends as he walked away with the Headmaster.
"Huh, wonder what that was all about." Stated Rose as she took a piece of toast and spread jam on it.
"Maybe it was about him and his girly screaming." Jessica said as she took a sip of orange juice. Rose choked on her toast, spraying crumbs all over her plate.
"You know about that too?" She demanded.
Jessica shrugged. "The whole school knows."
