Give and Take

Narcissa nodded and forced herself to stand up. She had to make him happy and do what he wanted..she loved him, and there was no question whatsoever that he loved her. Narcissa let Lucius embrace her. She let him stroke her cheek and brush some of her stray blond hair out her face. One thing led to another...soon enough, Lucius had done what no other boy had done to her before.
Lucius's evil grin stayed on his face as he put his clothes back on. Narcissa got dressed on the floor as Lucius watched her every move. Narcissa knew that Lucius was happy...but for some reason her heart was broken in two. Why was she so ashamed? Why couldn't she allow him to be happy? What was wrong with her?
All of a sudden these thoughts and emotions running through her head took to the form of tears...tears that she tried to hide from Lucius..but she couldn't.
Lucius's smile became a dark, evil frown. He fixed his eyes upon Narcissa's..but she wouldn't allow herself to look into those cold eyes when her eyes where so weak. Quickly she wiped the tears away and forced a tiny smile..but it was too late. The damage had been done.
Lucius grabbed her wrists and slammed her up against a locker. His strong, muscular hands pinned her down so she couldn't move even if she tried too. He stared at her with his dark eyes once again. Then his temper raged through him like a burning fire. He threw her to the ground.
"Get up! Get up!" Lucius's words rang in her ears like and alarm. Narcissa fumbled as she forced herself up on trembling knees. There she was, face to face, with the love of her life. Except this time, she had failed to make him happy.
He slapped her right cheek with great force...so much force in fact, that she had to use every bit of strength she had to keep from falling over. The entire right side of her face throbbed and her nose had started to bleed. Lucius, who was now disgusted, walked over to the door. Before he departed, he turned and looked at her..then he sneered and made his way out into the dark.
Narcissa fell to her knees in shock. This wasn't the first time that they had been in this secret place, and it wasn't the first time he had slapped her...but it was the first time that she was truly frightened.
She trembled as she was only half-dressed and somewhat cold. She threw her robes on and hurried outside. Her face was not only throbbing, but also her eye had started to tingle. Her nose was still bleeding, and seeing as how she never had wiped it, the blood had trickled down to her chin and dripped on her white collar.
She ran as fast as she could to the main door. She opened it a creak and peeked to see if there was anyone watching. Nobody was, so she opened the door all the way and ran over to the grand staircase.
She needed to go someplace where she could recompose herself and clean up. She couldn't risk going into the Prefect's bathroom at this late hour, so she made her way to the girl's bathroom on the 5th floor. Nobody would be there now.
But before she reached the third floor.she heard a few familiar voices, then she recognized who they where. It was Professor Lightgene, the Potions master, and Professor Heronisica, the Charms mistress. Narcissa stopped and stood behind the corner, waiting for them to leave. Unfortunately, they kept their conversation up.
"Lily and James? Why, they're one of the cutest 7th year couples here! What about them?"
"Well, I was informed that James asked for Lily's hand today after my class was dismissed!" Professor Lightgene replied with great excitement. Professor Heronisica gasped.
"But.but they are just SO young! Wha- what did Lily say?"
"That much I haven't heard..but James DID ask her.."
"How can you be so sure?"
"Mr. Black is my best student...I KNOW he isn't lying..he was helping me correct some papers..we were having a pleasant conversation.then it just sort of slipped from his mouth..him and James are best friends you know.."
"I should know that more than anyone...I can't get a moments peace with those two in my class..jabbering like crazy...it stuns me that they manage A's on their tests and papers." The chattering Professors walked up the stairs, keeping Narcissa out of sight.
Narcissa walked over to the girl's bathroom. Oddly enough, she had never heard of these two characters known as "James and Lily". They where probably in some other house...and Lucius always told her not to associate with people in other houses. She didn't like the sound of them anyway, the Professor's made it sound like they were from Gryffindor..and all of the Professor's fancied the Gryffindor students.
Narcissa entered the Girl's bathroom. She walked over to the sink and looked in the mirror to examine her nose. It had stopped bleeding, but there was still some dried blood on her face. She went to get a wet paper towel but she stopped when she heard the sound of crying.
"Who's there?" Her own voice surprised her . She slowly walked over to where the toilets were and turned the corner. There sat a girl with light red hair. She was weeping softly.
