Lights, Frights and the Morning After
A/N:Thanks to my reviewers. ie. Clesto and RedGoldenPhoenixia. Anyone who read this story should read theirs too. I still don't own the wonderful world of Hogwarts and it's surrounding features. :( sniff
After the power to my computer had shut off at one in the morning. I muttered about how this wasn't good for my computer. I pushed my chair back and got ready for bed. I clapped my hands in joy as I pulled back the blankets on my bed, my room pluged into darkness causing me to scream. I screamed for a awhile until I brought Malfoy to my door.
" What the hell is the problem?" he sounded irritated and tired. I just scampered out into the hallway where there was some light still shining. I pointed to my room, shaking.
"I think there's something in there" I told him while I thought about the movie I had watch the previous night. Jeepers Creepers is not something to watch while being full of sugar and around a bunch of also sugar filled girls. Malfoy entered my room, with his wand half drawn. I followed more slowly, my wand fully raised as I muttered 'lumos'. The tip of my wand lit and it made the entrance my room glow with a soft light. After Malfoy had done a complete curciut of my room he came and stood facing me.
" You're crazier than I thought, Stevens. There's nothing in your room, go to sleep and quit annoying me" He informed me. Wow he thinks so highly of me.haha
" Can I sleep in your room?" I asked,still pretty freaked out. Frankly I feel safer with someone than by myself. He sighed, "God I hate you, Stevens. Fine. You can sleep on the floor" I shrugged, obviously giving the reaction he didn't want, considering he stomped away to his room. Being as scared as I was, I wasn't about to left in the hallway, by myself, near my room. I pushed past him and jumped on to his bed,snuggling down into the warm sheets.
"Stevens, the floor" he said pointing down at the stone floor.
" What about it?" I asked, enjoying the warmth of his bed.
" You're going to sleep there"
" When did we decide on that?" I asked, inoccently. He scowled and climbed into the bed.
" Just keep away from me, Stevens. I don't want you touching me. I might contract something to make me lose my status."
" Like I would want to touch a filthy Slytherin like you" I told him, moving towards the other side, far away from him as possible.I quickly drifted off to sleep.
I woke the next morning to a sunlit room and a warm breath on my neck.I didn't remember where I was. I haven't had a drink in a week so I hadn't been drunk last night.Something warm was against my back . My breath quicked.'Ok there's something or someone touching me ' I closed my eyes and tried to go back to sleep but it didn't very well. There was a weight around my waist and I pulled back the blankets that covered me and saw a hand. Taking it, I pulled on it, rolling over in the process. There was a dull thud as the someone hit the floor, followed by a sleepy groan. Draco sat up from the floor, his hair a mess and he had a cowlick at the back of his head. I tried not to laugh at his appearance and what I had manged to do.
"Oww" Malfoy said. rubbing his butt. I looked around, trying to find a way from his room with out him noticing. I saw a door and leaped from the bed, running acroos the room or at least tried to . I had gotten myself tangled in the dark, green blanket and fell on to the floor. While I was wriggling and wrestling with the blanket, a shadow appeared over me. I stopped what I was doing and looked up.
" What was that for, Stevens."He asked, sleep still in his grey eyes.
" I don't like strangers touching me" I said, absently, my mind still on the task hand. I stilled wrestled with the blankets that tangled around me. He bent down, his face very close to mine. I screamed really loud and struggled harder against my soft prison.
"Ah ha," I yelled,trimphanly as my hand came free. I shoved his face away from mine and my hand came back with a wet slime on it, " Ewww" I wiped my hand on his blanket. I pulled the rest of my body out and bolted towards the door. It was locked, just my luck, I thought as I rattled the door handle. Then remembering that I was one of the smartest witches in Hogwarts, I looked around the room for my wand. It was nowhere in my vision,but I did see Draco's and made a grab for it.
" Alohamora" The door burst open and I rushed through it, clutching Draco's wand. I closed the door and secure the lock on it. Turning to see the room I was in, revealed a large pool with twenty or more taps, a toilet, a full length mirror and sink. There were about a dozen pictures on the wall but their occupants still slept. I don't trust those guys.
The door handle rattled behind me and I ran to the other door across the room. Opening it, showed my room. I locked that door and my room entrance, telling the mermaid outside of it, to keep a look out for a crazed Head Boy who was going to kill me. She nodded and continued to sunbathe. I changed quickly, keeping his wand in reach. I jumped as my alarm came on. I shutted it off and pulled the covers back to their proper place. Grabbing my backpack I snuck down to the common room and out in to the hall. I made my way down to the Great Hall, arriving just in time to see the owls dropping off the post and package of things students had left at home.
I sat down beside Erica, one of my best friends. Her blue-green eyes showed corncern as she asked me what had happened. Kristen, who sat on the other side of the table, looked over in interest. I told them all that had went on this morning and part of last night. Other Ravenclaws obviously had nothing better to do this morning then to listen to my tale.
" Do you really have his wand?" Kristen asked me. She's had a crush on Malfoy since the beginning of third year. I nodded. " Can I see it?" I pulled it out of my pocket and showed her.
" You could use this as blackmail, you know" Erica said, with a glint of mischief in her eyes.
" I could if he didn't have my wand in his room" I pointed out.
" There he is" Kristen blushed, becoming very interested in her food. Malfoy walked in, glaring hard at me. Though I wasn't facing him, I could feel his eyes boring holes into my brain.
" How was your morning?" a random Ravenclaw yelled.
" You look grumpier than ever, Malfoy" The whole table started laughing and snickering at the Slytherin. Hufflepuff and Gryffindor joined in even though I don't think they knew what it was about.
"It's about time we did that to him." A dark haired boy sat down beside me. I smiled at Stephen (A/N: Steven), another one of my best friends.
" Did what?" Kristen had crush on him too.
" Knock him off his high horse" Erica told her. Kristen scowled, wanting Stephen to answer.
Suddenly my tawny owl, Piper landed on the table in front of me. I unattached the letter from his leg, gave him some toast, and he flew off. I opened the note, it read
Dear Miss Stevens,
This letter is to inform you of your detention tonight. Please arrive at my office at 7pm. Be there on time or alternate consquences will follow
- Proffessor McGonall
Wonderful I thought, I had forgotten all about my two detentions.
" What's wrong?" I handed Erica the letter to read and tuned into the conversation Stephen and Kristen were having.
" Can you believe that?" Kristen asked.
" Believe what?" She ignored me.
" No, I can't, I mean doing this as a trial run" Stephen answered, ignoring me also.
" Tell me" I whined. Still they ignored me. Why am I friends with them anyway? I turned to Erica, who had now put down the letter.
" Erica, remind me why I'm friends with morons "
" Because you fit right in with them" Erica said, smiling.
"What are they talking about?" I gestured to the two morons.
" Dumbledore has decided to play soccer instead of Quidditch this year"
" WHAT!!!???"
" You heard what I said" Erica replied to my outburst.
" I LOVE SOCCER!!, I play it during the summer, on a muggle team of course. wow"
