The morning's sun rose into Cynthia Janis' window, causing her to wake up. She rolled over, knowing it was a Saturday and not wanting to get up. But the sun continued to bother her so she finally got up and walked lazily to the girls' bathroom. She hopped into the shower, turning it on a bit colder than usual and splashed the water onto her face, waking her up completely. As she was looking around for the shampoo she noticed her razor sitting on the shelf. Remembering the dream last night she scooped it up into her right hand.
Cynthia stared down at the razor blade for a few moments, letting her tears mix in with the fresh water that was already running down her face. She put it down to her skin, under the cut that she had done yesterday and slid it across her skin, letting the blood slip off her skin and onto the tile floor. Now the water stung on the cut and Cynthia quickly took her arm from beneath the rushing water.
Cynthia quickly washed her body and hair and got out of the shower. She dried herself and changed into a long black skirt and a partially tight black top. She got her make up and put on eyeliner and mascara. She dabbed a bit of her white powder onto her cheeks to even out her pale skin and left the Gryfinndor common room. She walked down a couple staircases and walked into the Great Hall. She walked over to Marie and sat down next to her.
"Hogsmeade today!" said Marie excitedly.
"It's going to be so much fun." Cynthia said smiling at her. She grabbed some waffles and plopped them onto her plate, reaching for the maple syrup.
"I know! Where should we go first?"
"Hmm... I really could go for a nice butterbeer." Cynthia replied.
"Yeah, me too, now that you mention it." Marie said.
After this short conversation, they shushed up and began to eat, every once in awhile talking about something.
When breakfast was over every 3rd year student and older gathered up by the door, waiting anxiously to get to Hogsmeade. When Marie and Cynthia get up to Filch, Marie took out her form and Cynthia diug into her pocket to get hers.
OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO
Cynthia's P.O.V.
"I can't find it. I most have left it up in my dormitory."
"Then I can't let ya go, now can I?" Says Filch in his mean, scratchy voice.
"But... but... if I could just run up there and get it real fast."
"No can do. We would leave without ya." He says, a small smile coming to his face. "Ya'd need a teacher to escort you to Hogsmeade, but since we'd all be there, there wouldn't be anyone to bring ya, except, of course, Professor Snape.
"Oh, this sucks Cynthia!" exclaims Marie. "But you could always ask Snape. It's worth a try."
"Yeah it is. But I doubt it. Have fun." I say gloomily to her. She says good-bye and heads out the door. I walk out of the way of the front way, as not to hold up everyone else. I see Professor Snape glaring at a bunch of frightened first years and I go up to him.
He looks away from the students and rests his penetrating glare on me. "Can I help you?"
"Um, yes Professor, Sir. I was wondering if you could escort me to Hogsmeade?" I look behind me and see that everyone has already left.
"Why would I do that?"
"Well, because I left my form up in my dormitory and I need a Professor to take me to Hogsmeade."
"I see. But why would I want to take you?"
"I... don't know." I say, unable to come up with an answer to that one.
"Don't waste my time, Ms. Janis."
"I'm sorry, Sir." I say, looking down at my feet. I turn around and sulkily head up the stairs. Something whizzes by my face. I spin around and see Professor Snape with his hand up and something that oddly looks like my permission form clasped in his hand.
"Come along. I have to get some ingredients anyways." And with that he turns around and heads out of the huge oak doors. I smile widely and rush after him. We get to therstal carriage and he easily climbs into the carriage. As always I have a bit of trouble climbing onto the carriage, because my height. Professor Snape sees me struggling a bit and reaches a long hands out to help me climb on.
"Thank you sir." I say, smiling a bit.
He nods his head at me and looks out the window as the carriage takes off. We quickly get to Hogsmeade. Severus Snape gets down from the carriage and turns around back to me and holds a hand out, offering to help me down.
I take his hand and hop down from the carriage. I smile at him and walk off, spotting Marie.
