CHAPTER 9

Hiding From the Truth

The next morning BV woke up feeling normal, feeling beautiful again, feeling like an innocent teen again. Just for that moment BV felt relieved then reality smacked her. 'Stacey, Jed, Pierre, Daddy, Noel Leigh- Anna' the thoughts raced through her head. She stood up now having felt normal by walking solidly on her own. She sat down at the vanity she saw a figure behind her. It was a Hogwarts robe she turned around.

"Boo," Rhonda said smiling.

"Vanities Rhon, don't help you!" BV said grinning back.

"Hey American Chickadee, can I seriously curl your hair? You'll look just like Andrea! Just prettier." Rhonda said smiling.

Andrea rolled over in bed and moaned, "Watch it Rhonda!"

"Hey Andrea, I hope you do realize that breakfast is in twenty minuets." Cho said coming out of the showers.

"Crap!" Andrea said rolling over, "I feel like shit."

"You okay?" BV said standing up and walking over to Andrea.

"Fine, just very tired." Andrea said. BV stood over her, Andrea's normally cheerful bright face was now pale as parchment. Her crystal blue eyes looked like small colorless blobs of ice floating in an abyss of black seas. Andrea's hair which was normally frizzy in the morning was limp and lifeless.

"Andrea! What's wrong, you're all pale and stuff." BV said sitting down and running her fingers through the golden limp tendrils.

"I'm not feeling great, maybe I'll skip first class and then maybe I'll feel better. Tell Mc Gonagall I'm feeling sick." Andrea said in a raspy voice.

"Andrea, you should go to the nurse." Cho said brushing her hair.

"No, I'm fine," Andrea persisted.

"HEY! Guys! Did you hear?" yelled Marietta running into the room.

"How do you find out everything before we do?" Rhonda asked pulling at BV's curls to make sure they were curled well.

"I leave my dorm in the morning." Marietta said, "Everyone's talking about it."

"Well?" Cho asked.

"They found blood all over in the Arithmancy classroom." Marietta said.

"What are they saying?" Rhonda asked.

"The portraits in the room say a Ravenclaw girl was rapped."

"By?" Cho asked

"A Ravenclaw boy with blonde hair." Marietta said.

"Davies!" Cho and Rhonda said together.

"What's the idigt up to raping girls from his own house?" Andrea said rolling over.

Marietta suddenly remembered something then she said,"Ohh Cho the meeting! Terry told me 8:00, not 7:00."

"Shut up, Marietta!" Cho snapped at her. " Harry already told me!"

"OOH!" BV, Rhonda, Andrea and Marietta shrieked.

"Shut up!" Cho yelled grabbing her bag.

"Rhonda, get Jackie, we got a situation on our hands!" Robert Rodowsky called out.

"Why you Rhon?" Asked BV.

"I'm a prefect." Rhonda said grabbing her robes and bag.

.

The girls entered Flitwick's a bit early. The class slowly filled up.

"What do you think happened?" Cho asked.

"No Idea!" Marietta said. The bell rang and second period began with neither Andrea or Rhonda showing up. Suddenly Rhonda and Christopher Penile entered.

"Professor, a word, if you please?" Christopher said.

"Of course." Flitwick answered back.

"Do you guys have a clue what's going on?" Cho whispered.

Olivia Langford said, "I heard there was a rape in Ravenclaw commons as well last night."

"Really?" BV asked.

"Yeah people are pointing at Davies." Olivia said flicking her hair. "yet I don't see why you'd want to resist him!"

"You want to keep your innocence." Cho snarled under her breath.

"You think that's what happened?" Marietta asked.

"It's likely!" BV said cracking her knuckles and then dipping her quill into the ink well in front of her.

"BV? Is that the essay assigned a week ago?" Cho asked

"Yeah, so?" BV said writing away.

"You didn't do it yet?" Cho asked.

BV looked up, "Of course not! It was easy, I'm finishing it up.... Actually starting and finishing up now!"

"God BV! How....? Never mind!" Marietta said as Rhonda and Christopher reentered with Flitwick.

"Rhonda?" Cho asked.

"Davies was up to no good last night, admits he raped a girl, just refuses to tell us whom." Rhonda said putting her head into her hands. "Said she's probably bleeding to death and doesn't even know it! He admits to stabbing her repeatedly. He's acting psycho on us, like he's a maniac!"

"Oh my God!" BV gasped laying her quill down. "So no idea whom he raped?"

"No clues here or to the Arithmancy raping. God girls have to learn to stand up for themselves. They both could be pregnant without even knowing it! They could be dying not knowing." Rhonda said almost crying.

"Guys, I have a hunch. I think it's the same girl." BV said, "But let me check it out."

.

The class passed and BV went back to the Ravenclaw Commons for morning break when everyone else was heading to the Great Hall for the rumored fist fight between some Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. BV climbed up to the dorms to check on Andrea. "Hey Aphrodite."

"Hey gorgeous, where's everyone else?" Andrea said sounding a little better, but physically looking worse.

"Watching some brainless Hufflepuff duke it out against a rather dumb Ravenclaw." BV said sitting down on the floor.

"Oh wonderful!" Andrea said sarcastically.

"Tell me about it." BV said, "You missed some important classes. Transfiguration was all about Human Transfigurations. Charms was about a controversial new spell the school's using to discover the girls whom were raped..."

"Wow!" Andrea gasped, "Sounds intriguing, listen BV, I can't go to potions, give em' hell Harry lover."

"WAIT! WHAT?" BV shouted turning around.

"Rumor has it someone is dating Harry Potter." Andrea said with a smirk.

"Oh really? The last time I saw the boy was when he helped me to the hospital wing after I nearly broke my ankle." BV said, "I'm going to find that little..."

"Don't say it!" Andrea interrupted.

"Fine, get better you, I've got me a potty mouth to catch!" BV quickly said.

BV ran out of the commons and towards the Great Hall. In the meantime Harry and Ron were watching Cedric Diggory's former best friend beat the snot out of Trevor Lankly an ignorant Ravenclaw Prefect in his seventh year.

"Wow! Harry! That was so cool!" Ron shouted to his companion.

"You boys and fighting!" Hermione Granger said walking behind them.

"What guys like fights, Hermione!" Ron said as they left the Great Hall.

BV said, "Good, Potter, better be ready then."

"BV! Hermione, this is Bridgette Viktoria... um Reinheart, right? Also known..." Harry started when BV cut him off.

"Can it Potter! It's you I'm after.... COME!" BV ordered. Harry obediently followed and they walked down a hall. "Okay Potter, where did you get the idea we were dating?" BV yelled in his face.

"BV, what are you talking about?" Harry asked genuinely confused.

"Okay, I heard a lovely little rumor saying we were an item, out with it! Who did you say what to?" BV snarled.

"Oh! That was me!" Ron said coming around the corner.

"YOU?" Screamed BV. "WHAT DID YOU SAY?"

"Oh not much, Harry just kept talking about you, we assumed you two were dating!" The red headed boy told her.

"I'll give you till three before I kick your butt!" BV threatened, "One... Two..." He ran off as fast as he could. "Kept talking about me Potter?"

"Yeah. You're a lot different than the girls I know." He said as a blush crept across his cheeks.

"I'm American, that's all." BV said shrugging.

"And very pretty." Harry said as the blush increased.

BV's mind had a spasmodic idea, "Not as pretty as Cho Chang though." She said smiling.

"No, I'll grant you that." Harry said.

"Why don't you ask her out?" BV asked.

"I don't think it'll work. I mean I saw her boyfriend die, I'm the all famous Harry Potter, I'm the reason he died." Harry said angrily.

"Uh huh, listen Harry I really don't think Cho cares." BV said, "Just roll with it Potter, check ya latter." She winked as she walked towards the dungeons with an idea formulating in her head. 'Potter likes Chang, and Chang likes Potter, so why don't I play matchmaker!' She entered at sat down. Snape was talking about a Troisieme Reversal potion.

"The potion is rather difficult and dangerous to make with the poison Rosemary roots we are going to use..." Snape started.

"Excuse me, the Troisieme potion is more effective if you substitute the poison Rosemary roots for sumac petals." BV called out.

"Miss Reinheart!" Snape yelled, "That was out of turn," he stated coolly, "I was under the impression I was teaching this class and not you."

"Oh I suppose you were just going to let us play with poison Rosemary roots that could kill if mixed in the potion at the wrong second." BV said bitterly.

"Yes, I was under the impression that you aren't children anymore. Miss Reinheart, what is a danger of using the sumac petals instead?"

"Severe itching of the hands with contact to bare skin, other than that we could add it a few seconds early or late and not kill ourselves by the explosion." BV said judiciously.

"Alright, do you wish to point out another problem with using sumac petals?" Snape gazed at BV she couldn't think of anything else and shook her head. " WE'RE IN ENGLAND! THERE IS NO SUMAC PLANTS IN ENGLAND!" Snape bellowed.

The class snickered as BV remained her composure, "Oh, well I was under the impression Hogwarts had a decent potions program and would have ordered from outside the country, Beauxbaton has quite a collection of sumac plants. Then the Herbology department would have attempted to reproduce the plant." BV said with an unfitting grin on her face.

"Oh yes, fifteen years later we finally have enough sumac plants for the classes." Snape said sarcastically.

"Oh yes, forget about the duplicatious charm!" BV said agitated by Snape's lack of intelligence.

"Alright, point taken but, we still don't have sumac petals! You still spoke out of turn, and have taken a rather hard tone with me, ten points from Ravenclaw." Professor Snape stated.

"Fine." BV whispered under her breath.

.

"Hey Andrea!" BV said hopping on to her bed.

"Hey, why aren't you at dinner?" Andrea asked slowly opening her eyes.

BV looked at her, "Did I wake you up?"

"No, I was about to go to sleep, but I'm glad you're here, we need to talk." Andrea said.
