**Well what can I say, but sorry again for leaving a Chapter 18 a cliffhanger, it was not intended at all, my brother just needed the computer and I wanted to leave you guys with a little something.**
**Here is Chapter 19, where Hermione begins to develop a sort of friendship with the young Professor Evee, and the first ever Professor Evee POV.**
CHAPTER 19-DINNER WITH PROFESSOR EVEE
I could not believe my eyes at what I saw. Professor Evee closed her eyes as if concentrating and I looked toward her gloved hands and they began to glow and I saw little yellow sparks extract from them. She opened up her arms, her palms out, and just when she opened her eyes, the whole room had changed.
First of all the aroma of sweet and sour chicken engulfed the whole room. The walls were covered with red and black satin, the bay windows at the end of the room had bamboo sheers over them. There was a long square bamboo table to out left, with bowls, chopsticks and teacups. There was faint oriental music in the background, aswell with tiny dragons decorated over the entire place.
"WoW!" I exclaimed at the sight of such wonder.
"So what do you think? Chinese food then?" she smiled at me. I smiled back.
"This is amazing" I said as I took a seat, "I never realized how amazing being a Wand-no could be."
"I suppose it has it's perks.."she sighed, "but unfortunately it also has it's downs."
I squinted my eyes in thought, I remember now, she believed that this power was more like a curse.
"Well then shall we eat?" she asked joyfully once again.
I looked down at the plates and around me, and there was no food.
"Uhhhh, where is the food though Professor?" I asked as if she had forgotten.
"Ah yes, silly me." She snapped the fingers and there was a whole diversity of chinese food in front of us, along with a tea pot full of green tea.
I didn't realize how hungry I was until I started eating. I hadn't eaten chinese food since the summer, but that wasn't it. I guess it was since I didn't eat breakfast or lunch today, so I wolfed down as much as I could, hardly speaking. When I finally looked up at the Professor, she ate calmy and slowly and fairly little. I looked to where that chain with her initials were dangling, and I wondered if I should ask her about it.
"Professor?" I asked trying to get her attention.
"Yes dear?" she asked me back.
"Whereever did you get that chain you always where on you neck, it's really beautiful?" I honeslty asked. It was true, it was a beautiful chain. It was silver and had some yellow and purple and blue stones spreaded across it. And at the end was a round cirlcle in silver and gold. And as I looked closely the circle was a snake with tiny red eyes. Inside in sparkling silver letters were her initials. E.V. Elloyha Voldemort. But she went by Evee, she explained to us that time in her office in the basement.
"Oh this old thing?" she said put her fingers around it. "It's a gift. From my father." Her eyes drew down. "It's one of the only things I have left that he gave me."
"How come?" I asked her wondering if it were right to be prying into her personal life like this. But sometimes it seemed as she needed someone to talk as much as I did.
"Well when my father dissapeared the last time, I watched our whole house burn down, with all our belongings in it. I never saw my father again. He had given me this when I was one. Then it was much longer." She smiled as if it were of a fond memory.
It was hard to believe that she spoke of He Who Must Not Be Named in such fondness. I knew he was a murderer and evil. But did she? Was she in denial about it? I knew these were things that I could not bare ask her.
When we finished our dessert, we just sat there chit chatting and drinking tea.
"I noticed you had sit alone in class today?" she asked breaking into our great conversation to finally bring the topic to me.
"Yeah..I just don't feel like being around people right now." I said looking down to my hands holding the cup.
"Tell me what happened last night Hermione." She said suddenly. How did she know that something had happened? But I did not question it, I needed to get it off my chest.
"Well Draco and I have been seeing each other for the past three weeks." She did not look surprised at all, it's as if she had suspected it all along.
"And last night I hurried after dinner to my living quarters to wait for him. When I had gotten there, ..Crabbe was there.and..he told me that he wanted to speak for Draco.I told him he could wait..in the common room."
My eyes began to get teary, but she just listened.
"I went to my room, and wanted to get into something nicer, something that Draco would like" I blushed at the thought of what had chosen to wear, but I had never mentioned exaclty what.
"So I waited in my room for him and then heard a knock on my..door. I thought it was Draco. But when I.went to open it, it wasn't him." Tears began to flow down my cheeks. "It was Crabbe, he bursted in, and.touched me.and.he....fondled me, and took my clothes off...".
I was now crying and talking in between gasps. Evee put her hand on mine and ushured me to go on.
"Then when he was on the bed on top of me.I began to scream..and finally Draco came in, and punched him and threw him out..He then came back to me, and wrapped me in blankets...and I just remember falling asleep in his arms." I said my eyes red and my face flushed.
"Hermione, it's very important that you tell me. Did Crabbe have." I immediately cut her off, not wanting to hear the words that were to come out of her mouth.
"No...he fondled me, and felt my body." I embarissingly explained.
"Hermione listen to me." I looked at her. "I know this feels very wrong, but you know Crabbe can be expelled for this."
"I know and I want him to be, but I can't bear for people to know about this, I just can't, what will people think of me!! People will then know of me and Draco, and my bestfriends will hate me for lieing to them and. I just don't know what to do." I cried again but now I was shouting.
"Husshhhh now, sweety, hush. It will be all alright, you will see. I am gonna have to bring this up with Professor Dumbledore. But I promise that I will leave out your little relationship with Mr.Malfoy, and we will take care of this discreetly, no one will know. Albus Dumbledore is an extrordinaly man, he won't let you be hurt by this anymore, you will see." She explained to me.
"Do you agree? It's only good that Mr.Crabbe get's thrown out. He deserves it. Alright?" she reassured me. "No one will know dear, no one."
I nodded dazed out. "Yes, yes your right." She smiled.
"Good. It will be good don't fear." She reassured me again.
"Thank you so much Professor Evee, you've been really good to me, thank you." I said giving a little smile.
"No need to thank my dear. Now you should go take a nice warm bath, and go off to bed. Teachers order. And I will take care of this problem. Now off with you!" she jokingly said pushing me towards the door after we had stood up.
"Ok." I said walking out, but then turning around and toward her and giving her a giant hug. She seemed surprised at first, as if she had never been hung by anyway. But she slowly patted me on the head and pushed me off smiling.
"There there." She said. "Have a good night."
"Good night." I turned around and left her quarters.
PROFESSOR'S EVEE POV
I could not believe what had happened to Miss.Granger, and it was disgusting the way men still treating women these days, I was shocked, aswell as appalled. I knew that I would have to bring this problem up with Albus Dumbledore immediately. So right after Miss.Granger had left, I had left out the back doors of my living quarters and made my way down the hall to Albus Dumbledore's office. I felt someone behind me, of course I knew who it was.
"Is there anything I could help you with Severus?" I asked without turning my head but coming to a halt.
"Ahh, I do forget that you practiclly have eyes in the back of your head, and sometimes know when your being watched or followed." He answered back sarcasticlly. He made sort of mad to stall me so much when I was in such a rush.
I turned around my hair wipping over and down my shoulder.
"I always know when im being watched or followed." I told him, wiping that smirk off his face.
He just stared at me.
"Severus I don't have time for this, precious time is at waste, I need to see Professor Dumbledore." I explained.
"About what exactly?" he asked suspiciously.
"I don't see that as your concern." I snapped back him my eyes tinting to a red but not purposely.
"Ahh but when your around Evee, everything becomes my concern." He said back, not fearing that my eye's glew Red, knowing that happened when I was angered. But slowly they turned back to their original color.
"Severus..it's been years and things havn't changed, they are still the same." He just nodded. "Im sorry". I wipped around and made my way to Albus Dumbledore's chamber, knowing that Professor Snape was not following me anymore.
I had reached the statue that would lead to the revolving stairs of Professor Dumbledore, but I couldn't remember the password.
I put my hands one foot away from them and spread my hands and mumbled, "open.." and they did.
I went up the stairs and I reached there, there was no one in his office except for his pet Phoenix.
I stood there in the room, my eyes closed, trying to sense where he was.
"Blocking my sensing ability are we Albus?" I said turning around as I did with Severus.
"Well if I didn't, you would be sensing all things that go on in this old wise brain of mine." He said walking around me and carefully sitting at his desk.
"Is everything alright Elloyha?" I smiled at him, he was the only one who would call me by my name, sometimes it would feel great to here it, other times it felt as burden, these were one of the times when it felt absolutely great.
"It feels great to hear the sound of my name. The other teachers refuse to call me by it. Even Severus." I answered dully, as if that were what troubling me.
"You they do it for you own protection Elloyha, if the students found out, there would be panic, they would tell there parents, many problems would arise." he explained.
"I know that." I cut him off.
"Im sorry sir, Im very troubled." I said my eyes to the ground.
He leaned abit over the desk. "What's wrong dear? What is troubling you?"
"Oh, sir, well it's not me at all, Im alright. It's one of my top prized students." I said.
"Hermione Granger?" he asked, but I knew he knew who I was talking about.
"Exactly, something terrible has happened to her" I saw the worringness in his eyes.
I told him the entire story excluding the Draco part of it, but I think he assumed it and knew that I wanted to keep my word to her.
"This is very dreadful." He said almost in disbelief. "Miss. Granger, that poor dear she must be feeling terrible. But I must say Elloyha, Im totally surprised that you would open up to the child like that, letting her befriend you. You have never done that with many."
"I know, but I can sense what she was going through, and I needed to help her I just did." I said in defence.
"I understand, well I'll see that Mr.Crabbe is being taken care of and expelled from the school. Of course this must be taken care of as promtly as we can. And without letting teacher or students knowing the truth, for Miss. Granger's sake. I'll have someone come tommorow night and pick him up and take him home, I'll arrange everything." He sounded as he meant every word, and I also trusted him with my life.
"Thank you Albus." I told him.
"It's times like this Elloyha, that Im glad we agreed to let you stay here at Hogwarts. Your doing quite well as a Professor."
"Thank you sir, that means the world to me." And then I turned around, eager to tell Miss. Granger the good news tommorow after class, of course, after seeing Harry.
**Once again, I won't be posting chapter 20 until tommorow, cause of my idiot brother!Sorry!**
