It was 3 in the morning, and Vanessa was wide-awake. Having the same dream
about the shadow girl she didn't feel like sleeping. Vanessa listened to
the sounds of night. She heard the deep rhythmic breathing of her roommates
and she heard a bird in the distance.
Vanessa was thinking. Out of the time being here at Hogwarts, even though it was still a short time, no one had every explained WHY they were here, why they were so important.
Ron had told her about Voldermort. But still, it didn't make any sense. Being bored and all she decided to go to the bathroom. In there she brushed her hair (even though it didn't matter much) and sat and talked to her reflection in the mirror.
"What are all of my dreams about? What is so special about Kelsey, Angela, and me? Why do I have so many unanswered questions?" Vanessa asked.
"Well if you ask me, you have too much stress in your life, you need to learn to relax. Too many new things at once." Vanessa's reflection replied back. Vanessa was used to that, she was being to take the strange things in the wizarding world as 'normal.'
Vanessa decided to go back to bed, but again, didn't want to fall asleep. She put on her robe and her slippers and went down to the commons.
There she was alone, with a lowly lit fire. She snuggled into a comfy armchair. Within three minutes, Vanessa had passed the plane from the physical world into the mental and dream world.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Vanessa was woken by cheering. She was still in the armchair, but now the commons room was bright with daylight pouring in, not to mention all the people.
"Quiet down, now everyone listen. We have just had Gryffindor tryouts." Ron said. Everyone cheered. Ron tried to speak again but he couldn't talk above the crowd. However Harry could. "Hey be quiet. Now the only position that needed filling was a Beater and that position has been filled by." Harry stopped for a dramatic pause. It was silent in the room, everyone in anticipation.
"Lavender Brown!"
Cheers erupted in the commons, and it was so loud that Vanessa had to cup her hands over her ears. "So our first Quidditch game is next week against Slytherin. I hope everyone will be there to cheer us on!" Cheers again. Ron and Harry stepped down from the table in which they were standing. Ron spotted Vanessa and started walking in that direction.
"Hey, why are you out here dressed like this?" Ron asked trying to hid a giggle. "I came down here last night because I couldn't sleep, and I guess I fell asleep." Vanessa said. "Well tonight we are all going to Hogsmeade, don't forget! I gotta go and get a shower, but after that let's do something, alright?" Ron asked.
Vanessa nodded exclaiming that she too had to freshen up. They both walked up to their dorms to get ready.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Hey, how are you?" Angela asked Draco. He had tried out for the beater position but didn't make the cut. "I'm alright, I knew I wouldn't make it, I'm a seeker, and that position was already filled." He said.
"Well it's for the best, if you made it, I would have to be in the bleachers all by myself." He smiled at her and leaned in for a kiss. She backed away. "No. Not until you've had a shower, that's gross." She said kiddingly. He got up and started chasing her. "Stop! NO! GROSS!" she yelled, zigzagging through all the people. Draco finally caught her and pulled her in a close hug.
"See, it isn't that bad, I'm not THAT gross!" he exclaimed. "That's what YOU think!" she said in reply. "Now let go of me, I gotta go take a shower now because you got me all nasty." "Not before giving me a kiss." "No!" "Yes!" "N---" Draco pushed his lips on hers and they kissed.
"There, that's all I wanted! Now wasn't that easy?" He kidded. She smiled as she walked up to her dorm.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Kelsey didn't feel like doing anything today, tonight though, they were all going to Hogsmeade, and she was excited about that.
She decided to catch up on her reading, so without getting out of bed, without changing, still staying in bed, she reads one of her favorite books A Gift of Magic by Lois Duncan. This book she has read many times, and she likes it so well because she can relate it to herself.
The main character has the gift of ESP. Now Kelsey having telekinesis (the power to move objects), not ESP, couldn't relate totally, but the just of it was that a regular teenager had a gift and had to deal with it in everyday life.
Kelsey was about on page seventeen when she heard Vanessa come in. "Hey, what's up, I was wondering where you were at." Kelsey said. "Long story short I spent the night down in the commons room. I need to take a shower." "You're too late, Lavender is already in there." Kelsey said.
"Damn. You think the fourth years will let me use theirs?" "Its worth a shot." And with that Vanessa gathered her things and headed out of the dorm, down the stairs to ask for a shower.
Before Kelsey could get into her book, Angela came into the dorm. "Shower?" "No. Try someone else." "Alright." No more said, Angela walked back out of the room.
"Peace and quiet, finally." Kelsey murmured to herself, starting to read again.
"Hey, whatcha reading?" Hermione stepped into the dorm. Kelsey gave huge frustrated sigh and said in a calm voice, "A book that my mom gave me. About ESP." "How fitting. I see you are wearing the necklace." Kelsey quickly felt for it, making sure it was on securely.
"Yeah. Need anything, because I really don't feel like talking, not to be rude or anything, but I'm not a socially kind of person, I like being by myself." Kelsey explained.
"Well fine, so sorry for 'interrupting' you. Ill leave you alone now." Looking very pissed off, Hermione left, and leaving Kelsey very confused.
