Chapter 4: I am what I am
Two men were in the room, one sitting in the chair before the fire, and one
standing next to him. They were deep in conversation. "Should we kill the
boy?"
"No, I have a different plan. Kill all of them."
Adrienne jolt upright in her bed, sweat pouring down her face. She
breathed deeply, but still it seemed she couldn't get enough air. Her eyes
bolted around the room when they fell on her night stand. 1:00 A.M. She
put her hair up in a ponytail and laid back in bed. She stared up at the
ceiling for what seemed like forever before sleep was able to take her
again.
It was Saturday and Adrienne had decided to skip breakfast, she had had another restless night. She walked out of her common room with a notebook under her arm. She walked down the hall when she saw Pansy, the annoying girl that her and Draco had run into the other day. Adrienne just kept walking forward hoping the girl would just pass by her. "Watch where you're going!" Pansy yelled at her after she had purposefully shoved her shoulder right into Adrienne's. Adrienne's eyes then glazed over, white.
"I have the perfect plan," pansy whispered to another Slytherin girl. "What, you aren't going to do anything drastic are you?" Pansy smirked evilly and said, "You read my mind."
Adrienne snapped back to reality. 'what is she planning?' she wondered. "Adrienne! Are you alright?" Ginny called to her. "I saw what happen. Parkinson needs to learn some manners." "Yea, I'm fine Ginny." Adrienne then noticed Ginny holding a broomstick. "Where are headed?" Adrienne asked. "Oh, I was just going to Quiddich practice, would you like to come watch?" "Sure, I'd love to."
Adrienne spent the afternoon watching the Gryffindors practice, which she saw that they seriously needed. The captain looked like she was going to rip her hair out soon. Adrienne opened her notebook and started doing what she could of her Charms homework. She found it rather difficult without her book with her though.
It soon started to become dark outside and they all headed back inside. Adrienne headed back to her common room and Ginny went to go shower. When Adrienne reached her common room, everyone looked extremely happy. "What's going on?" Adrienne asked Cho. "Oh, next weekend is the first Hogsmeade weekend. It's always the best." Adrienne considered this thought but was itnerupted by Cho again. "Hey, our first Quidditch isn't until after holiday, make sure to come and watch!" "I won't forget, I promise."
Cho and Adrienne walked down to dinner together. Adrienne learned that Cho wasn't that bad after all, until she saw Harry Potter. Adrienne rolled her eyes as Cho went on and on about what a jerk he was and then how great he was. Adrienne saw Ginny, who waved at her. Ron, Harry, Hermione also waved when they noticed Ginny waving. Adrienne sat down at her own house table where Cho introduced her to their Quidditch team.
Adrienne then felt a pair of eyes on her. She looked around the Great Hall and saw Draco Malfoy looking at her. She blushed a little and then went back to pretending to listen to Cho. When Adrienne lifted her eyes to him again, Draco was clutching his arm, though trying to to make it noticeable. He then abruptly left his table and practically rushed out of the Great Hall. Adrienne noticed this. "I'll be right back you guys." She tried to find Draco, but to no avail. She just continued walking onto the grounds aimlessly. She then spotted a hunched figure standing by the lake. She approached him and saw that his back was to her. He turned his head towards her so she could see his profile, but only for a minute. She continued to walk towards him until she was standing next to him. They stood in silence for awhile before he spoke up, "What are you doing here?" She thought she heard something in his voice, sadness perhaps. "I wanted to see if you were ok." "What, are you my friend now?"
"If you want me to be." "We could never be friends." "Why is that?" "Because I am a damned man." Draco then rolled up his sleeve to reveal the dark mark on his arm. Adrienne's eyes widened in shock. "See, this is why we can't be friends. I am what I am." Draco then stalked away back towards the castle. All Adrienne could do was stare back at him. "A death eater," she whispered to herself.
