Ch.12- Boredom and Shattered Beyond Repair
*Oliver's POV*
He sat at his desk when he read Sarah's letter. He couldn't help but chuckle to himself. That was a big mistake. For Percy was sitting only a few feet away.
"What are you laughing about?" Oliver folded up the letter. "What is that?" Oliver was trying to put it in his desk, but Percy was to fast.
"Give it back Percy! It's not yours." Percy ran away for Oliver who was charging after him. "You are causing a scene Oliver." Percy began to laugh. Oliver cursed at him under his breath. Everyone sitting in the office were now staring at Oliver and Percy.
Percy sat at his desk and began to unfold the letter. "I think I am entitled to this. Did you or did you not read a letter Penelope wrote me?" Percy had a smug look on his face, and Oliver felt the sudden urge to knock it off. Oliver looked at the ground for he knew he had lost. "That's what I thought." Percy read the letter. "You told her about my nickname!" Oliver put on his famous smirk. "You are a jerk, Oliver. She's cheating on you. Oh, it was a joke. Ow, how sweet. Tell her I said hello also. She seems really nice. You better treat her good, you daft moron."
Oliver took the letter from him. "You call me a daft moron, and you thought she was cheating on me. You are an idiot. Don't worry `HONEY BEAR', I treat her fine."
Oliver walked back over to his desk, and Percy cursed at his back. He sat down and pulled out a clean sheet of paper. He began to think of what he could write.
Sarah,
I just had a little run-in with `honey bear'. He read your letter. He actually thought you were cheating on me. He had the audacity to call me a daft moron. Oh yeah, he says hello.
Anyways, I am so bored! They said they needed me for urgent business, and all I do is paperwork. Hopefully you're having more fun than I am. I have to keep this one short, for alas, my paper is small. I shall write you when I have an adequate piece of paper. Keep in touch. I love you.
Oliver (a.k.a.- Snook-ums)
He folded it and sealed it. He walked out of the office, and down the hall. He opened the door, and the smell of animals filled his nostrils. He coughed. He opened one of the cages with a small owl in it. He tied the letter to its leg, and released it outside the window. He watched it soar higher into the sky. He walked back to his desk, dreading the work he had ahead of him.
Meanwhile at Hogwarts...
Pansy is devising a plan to get back at Draco; Draco is doing the same; Fred and George are getting in trouble for setting off dungbombs in the dungeons; Hermione is tutoring Ron in the library; Harry is googling over a Quidditch broom magazine; and Sarah is working on her Potion essay.
Little do they suspect any danger, any time soon. But the danger is coming closer, and come it will. Unsuspected, unprepared and its effects will change everyone forever.
*Pansy's POV*
I've got it! She had finally devised the perfect plan to ruin Draco's friendship with Sarah. She would tell Sarah what Draco had told her. That would definitely ruin it. She chuckled at her plan.
*Draco's POV*
I know what Pansy is going to do. I must stop her or tell Sarah first. I will first try to stop her. But how? What am I going to do? I don't want her to know at all!
Hermione left Ron in the library to finish his work. She walked to the common room, and found Sarah. She was working on her Potions essay. "Could you help me Hermione?" Hermione nodded her head and read Sarah's essay. "I have a book in the dorm, come with me." They walked up to their dorm. Sarah was carrying her book, and Hermione was carrying Sarah's supplies. Sarah walked over to her bed, and put her stuff down. Hermione was just behind her and tripped on a slipper. She hit Sarah's night stand and dropped the supplies. There was the sound of glass breaking. Hermione got and looked to see what she had broken. She had managed not to break any ink bottles. Sarah bent down to pick up her night stand, and she gasped. She discovered the broken glass, and it was the teacup Draco had given her. Hermione apologized profusely, and offered to help fix it. They realized that it was far beyond repair. Sarah sat on her bed and cried. Hermione didn't know what to do so she left. Sarah
cleaned up the mess. She later told Hermione that it was okay, but she always resented it. That was a special gift, and it had shattered into a million pieces.
Note- I finally finished! Yeah, I got inspired by Little Ray of Moonlight05! Thanks.
