Chapter 6: "Words Say More Then Actions"
Last Time: Claudia had a little scene when she showed off all her anger for Draco in front of Harry. Draco attempted to apologize to Jamie, but was unsuccessful. Jamie was still to mad at him, or was she mistaking anger for lust? Claudia was depressed when she thought Harry was going to say what he felt towards her. All that was replaced when Harry finally had the courage to kiss her on the lips.
Jamie kept walking and walking. Finally she ended up outside of Hogwarts. The weather was chilly and the sun was setting. Cold weather had no effect on her. Last winter, it got as cold as it could get. She could feel the weather and it was very cold, yet had no effect on her. 'Maybe it's just because I'm cold hearted,' she thought. She walked down to the lake thinking of past events when she just realized what Draco was saying. Draco Malfoy was apologizing.
Jamie was thinking, 'Why didn't I just accept his stupid apology? Then I wouldn't be going through this crap. But he deserved to be blown off; an apology is not enough. I'm glad I didn't accept it. Wait, no I'm not. Dammit Jamie! Why can't you just make up your fucking mind?! What is he doing to me?'
Back in the hall, Draco was thinking the same, just in his own version.
'Why didn't she accept my apology. Wait, I don't care. Now I can just go around being mad at her like I did everyday. Back to normal. Back to when people were afraid of me. But why do I want her not to be mad at me? Maybe you should go see Madam Pomphrey in the infirmary, cause Draco, you're going out your mind!'
Draco started walking around the school. 'Maybe I should look for her. No, I don't give a bloody hell where she is. Draco who are you kidding, you want her.' Draco slammed his fists against the wall, fed up with everything that was happening. He had even forgotten that he had a Quidditch match tomorrow. 'Damn! I have worst things to worry about.' Draco passed the library and saw Claudia and Harry snogging. Draco spoke to himself; "Well at least Potter is getting some action." Dinner was starting in a couple of minutes. (A/N: Damn, don't time pass when you snogging or depressed?)
"Wow," said Claudia as they parted from the kiss.
"That was…that was…" Harry stuttered.
"Amazing. Why couldn't we do that sooner?"
"I don't know. I guess stuff happens at times for a reason. And at the right time."
Claudia looked at her watch. "Damn!"
"What wrong?"
"What a perfect time for this, dinner already started, 7 minutes ago," said Claudia, wishing they had more time. You had to admit, that was pretty damn good kiss.
"Damn!" Harry said.
"Exactly! Now lets go, where're already late." Claudia said gathering their stuff and racing out the library. As they were walking, Harry grabbed Claudia's hand and smiled at her and she smiled back. What did Claudia like about Harry? That's easy, his emerald eyes; jet black hair, Quidditch body, and his scar. It was attractive in some…sick… weird…nasty kind of way, but Claudia liked it.
Mean while, by the lake, Jamie fell asleep sitting under a tree. She quickly realized that she was supposed to be at dinner. She quickly got up, dusted all the dirt of her robe and ran to the castle doors. Dinner had started 25 minutes ago. Nobody was expecting her to come to dinner anyway because of what happened earlier. She was about to prove them wrong.
When Harry and Claudia got to the dining room, they saw Draco sitting at the Slytherin table. He was staring at his food, not eating it, just moving his fork through it. He took a glimpse at them and sighed, Jamie wasn't with them.
"I sure hope Draco has an alibi for what he told Jamie, cause if he doesn't, I don't think he will survive the school year. And if he does, he'll graduate a miserable man," said Goyle. He and Crabbe already know what took place in the library, everyone knows, and for that reason all the Slytherins left Draco alone.
"Since when do you become all incisive on things?" asked Crabbe. "And I told you that Draco doesn't even like Jamie. She deserved to be called a mudblood."
"What did you say?" Crabbe and Goyle turned around and saw Draco staring down at them, obviously he had heard the whole conversation.
"Um… we… we were just talking-
"Shut up Crabbe, I heard you. You obviously don't know me very well, and I take back everything I said to Jamie, everything! Now why don't you leave for the time being so I won't rip of your arms and beat you to death with them!"
Crabbe got up and left. Everyone at the Slytherin table had heard this part of the conversation. Seeing hard not to, since Draco was practically yelling. Goyle just watched Crabbe leave with a little bit of satisfaction. Then he turned to Draco, who had taken Crabbe's seat.
"Draco?" Draco just sat there with his hands in his hair, stressed out. "Can I ask you something?"
"You just did."
"Well, um, okay." Goyle didn't fill like getting on Draco's bad side.
"Go on Goyle, you can ask me. Just don't ask me what happened in the library."
"I wasn't. I wanted to ask you if you fancied Jamie." Draco looked up and sighed, again.
"Goyle, can we talk about this later? I don't-
Draco abruptly stopped when he saw Jamie walking in the Great Hall. She glanced at him, her face emotionless, and his, the same. Everyone looked up at Jamie. Everything had gone silent. No one was talking, only staring at Jamie. Jamie gave them an evil look and everyone then looked away and went back to what they were doing. Jamie mumbled a low "That's better" under her breath and went to sit at the Gryffindor table. She saw an empty seat that Claudia had left for her between her and Harry. She sat down and let out an audible sigh. No one was talking and it was just to quiet. Jamie knew they were trying not to say something as to make Jamie mad, and she was getting tired of it.
"Are you all going to look at me like I'm so deformed animal in the zoo, or just act like the first thing you say I'm going to take it personally and punch you in the face?" Jamie said looking at everyone at the table. Claudia was the first to speak.
"No, we'd much rather watch Seamus try to turn his juice into alcohol and burn the school down in the process." Everyone had to stifle their laughter as to not make Seamus upset. This lightened up the mood and everyone began talking again.
"Hey!" said Seamus; "I resent that!" Claudia and Jamie just laughed at him.
Claudia turned to Jamie and said, "You're late."
"Well thank you Claudia, master of the obvious." Claudia gave Jamie a glare and rolled her eyes. Jamie started to laugh. "I'm just kidding."
"So, how are you Jamie? Where have you been? Why-
Jamie cut off Claudia. "Claud, please, one question at a time. I'm fine, I guess, mad as hell, but fine. And I've been outside next to the lake. I fell asleep under the tree. So what happened between you and Harry after I left the library?" Jamie had a smirk on her face. Harry seemed to hear this part of the conversation. Claudia started to blush, and heard Harry whisper to her.
"How would she know anything happened?"
"I dunno, she just knows. It's scary some times."
"So," Jamie said while eating some mashed potatoes, "you going to tell me what happened? Don't say no, cause I already saw you blush."
"Well, after you left. Um, after you left, me and Harry, me and Harry, we, we-
Claudia stopped as she spotted two owls soar into the Great Hall. Jamie also spotted it. One flew to the Slytherin table and the other to the Gryffindor table. Both dropped a note in front of them.
"Oh no." said Jamie, guessing what this note might be.
"What is it?" asked Claudia and Harry at the same time.
"Dammit!"
"What is it?" Jamie opened the letter and read it our loud…
You will be serving your detention tomorrow night at 9:00 with me.
-Minerva McGonagall
At the Slytherin, the owl dropped the letter in front of Draco. He opened the envelope and read it to himself.
"Fuck."
"What is it Draco?" asked Goyle.
"I got detention."
"That's not fair. You didn't hit Jamie, you shouldn't get detention."
"Goyle."
"Yes?"
"Shut up."
"Okay."
Jamie was now more furious then ever and didn't feel like talking. She started thinking, 'Why did I get detention? Besides, Draco deserved that hit for calling me a mudblood. I got detention for fighting with a fellow student. But he shouldn't qualify as a student. And isn't fighting when someone hits you and then you hit them back. Not when you hit them, walk out, and the other person is left in the library to rot.'
Jamie looked up and glared at Draco. He was already glaring back. Then he mouthed "This is all your fault." Jamie then stuck her tongue at him then winked, then smiled at him. If she was mad, she wasn't going to let him know. Draco turned away and noticed Jamie had stopped.
"Jamie? What are you doing?" Harry asked as he caught her sticking her tongue out.
"Teasing Malfoy. It makes me feel better. Wanna join?"
"Um, no thanks."
"Your loss."
Jamie then charmed some mashed potatoes.
"Jamie, what are you doing?" asked Claudia. "You don't need to get in anymore trouble."
"You're only in trouble if you get caught." Jamie grinned. The mashed potatoes then flew across the hall and landed right on Draco's head. Jamie, Claudia, and Harry started laughing.
"Ughhh!" Draco yelled as he felt something on his head. He then looked at the direction it came from. Jamie ducked under the table and he was lead to believe Harry did it. Draco then charmed some of his mashed potatoes and, as Harry was laughing, some mashed potatoes splattered right in his face.
"Eww!" said Harry wiping the food off his face. Draco looked at him in malice, while Jamie began to laugh harder at Harry, so did Claudia.
"Claudia" Harry said warningly.
"I'm sorry Harry… it's… just…to funny!" Harry then looked at Draco and mouthed, "You idiot, I didn't do it!" Draco just shrugged his shoulders and smiled anyway.
Jamie emerged from under the table still laughing. She then looked up.
"I'm in trouble." An owl was already soaring in the hall and dropped a letter in front of her. Draco got another owl to.
"Fuck," he said, "not again!"
Jamie read the note…
Come to the staff table now.
-Minerva McGonagall
Draco got the same letter. He was trying to get mashed potatoes out of his hair. They both got up and walked to the staff table.
"I warned her." Claudia said while sighing.
Draco and Jamie made it to the staff table. Jamie ignored Draco until he said, "It was you then."
"Yup." She then looked at his hair and smiled. "That look suits you."
Draco rolled his eyes. Jamie then glared at him.
"I hope you know, this changes nothing." Jamie said.
Professor McGonagall then looked at them.
"I hope you know that that was very childish and immature for 7th years like yourselves. Both of you will have 20 points taken away from your houses and you better not do that again. I have to say I am very disappointed in both of you. After what happened today between the two of you, I thought that would be enough."
"Sorry Professor." Jamie and Draco said in unison. Jamie then looked at the Professor, "It won't happen again."
"I sure hope it doesn't. Now take your seats, the both of you."
"Professor, I have a question." Draco said. Jamie wanted to hear what he had to say. But the Professor shooed her away.
"Yes Draco?"
"Why do I have detention? I didn't hit Jamie she hit me. I know I deserve it but I just want to hear why."
"Mr. Malfoy, I can only give you a short answer."
"Which is?"
"Sometimes, words say more than actions."
Draco went back to his seat, but decided he wasn't hungry anymore. He left the Great Hall, and Jamie watched him leave. Dinner was practically over so everyone went back to his or her dorm rooms, well, not everybody.
Harry had made it back to his dorm. He heard a knock and went to answer the door.
"Claudia, hi, what are you doing here?"
"Can I come in?"
"Sure, come straight in."
