Chapter 7
Snape walked into the Algebra room, in dismay that he had to teach the low mannered children today. But Dumbledore said that if he acted as a substitute teacher it would be a faster way to see it any of the children have any likeliness of being the 3rd one. He dashed from door to the desk, as he did once before in his black wardrobe.
"Turn to page, 394" he said in his deadly voice, sat at a desk and started to shuffle his papers for what seemed to be no reason, but to be shuffled. Jack, Ron, Lance and Emmi happened to be in that class. Emmi and Ron, knew what was going on, but it was a pleasure to see Jack's mouth hanging opened. He was one of the few at the lunch table who was yet to be told that Ron, Malfoy, Snape and Hermione were at Hogwarts (it's not like Draco had his hair slicked back, and was wearing robes).
Jack couldn't help but blurt out, "Your Professor Snape!"
Snape stopped shuffling his papers, "My name is Mr. Vagor, Mr. Holand, now please, don't talk to me out of turn again! Turn to page 394."
Jack couldn't help it, being the Harry Potter fan that he was, "But you must be! It's to much of a coincidence that you have the hair, the cloak, the PAGE NUMBER that was put in the 3rd Harry Potter movie, and the arousing eyes!"
Snape (or Mr. Vagor) bent himself down to Jack's sitting level, grasped his hands on the desk and said, "Turn to page 394," getting some spit on his face.
Jack couldn't take it, he turned to his math class, "LOOK, CAN'T YOU SEE THAT IT'S SNAPE?"
Jack was friends with most people in that class, and as his friends they knew when he was joking around, but they thought he was only seeing things this time. Sure that the man looked like Alan Rickman, the one who plays Snape in the movies, but it wasn't possible that he was here.
"Detention!" Snape said in his chilled voice.
Jack whispered, "Yes! Detention with Snape. I always wondered what it was really like…"
Snape started to teach the lesson when she felt a pen poke into her back. She turned around quickly, to Lance, who handed her a note. She opened it and read;
M-
I want to ask Ivy to the Valentine's dance tomorrow. Do you think I should? I know it's short noticed! But you talk to Kyle, is she still on/off with him, or are they finally history?
Ur INSYC sexi boy,
L
Emmi felt a lump in her throat. It made her sick to think that he liked Ivy. Not that Emmi like liked Lance. She thought of him as a brother, one of her best friends and the guy that would protect her from the weirdoes in the school (he was doing a good job). How could he like such a girl? Ivy had a look to her face that even though it was her skin color, had a tone that looked like it was never washed. When ever she saw Ivy (when she wasn't giving dirty looks at Emmi) she had her head down and looked to be on the verge of tears, and had her arms crossed constantly, though to be scowling at everyone. Only when she was with Kyle she even looked happy.
L-
I'm not sure if that's such a good idea. She only found out yesterday that Kyle was cheating on her with a guy, Clark, or something, he goes to another school. That's not the point. Besides how could you like my worst enemy? I don't think me and Jack fight as much as her (and u know how Jack is. We have been fighting a lot ever since we stopped going out in Oct).
Your Spice Girl,
E
She passed the note back to him and moments later he replied;
M-
Kyle is with another guy? That bisexual freak! Just the thought of him sticking his tongue in Ivy's mouth is sick enough, but in a GUY'S? I have no idea how you can be friends with him!
But yes, I like Ivy. So wat? You liked worse, rem your Jessie McCartney period? Are you jealous of her or something?
-L
NO! I'm not jealous of her! Wasn't it you who told me she was wishing that she had my body? I don't know why, when she's like 90 pounds skinner then me (does she even eat at ALL?). You shouldn't bag on K like that. I know I do sometimes but he does have problems at home, I hate how I'm so hard on him. He's really sweet when you don't mention her (or sex). I just can't see why you like her.
-E
Well I do! You need to come to Computer Club then sometime when she's not ready to kill you. In fact you two would make good friends one day. She's still mad at you for the shaving cream incident. But she's really nice, she just has some stuff to work out. So should I ask her? I'm friends with her and stuff so its not like I'm a stranger to her.
-L
She has stuff to work out? SO DOES KYLE! FROM HER! I know that for a FACT. He told me himself. Look, do what ever you want, just promise you wouldn't let her kick the crap out of me. That girl (if you can CALL her that) has street smarts somewhere up her ass, and she has a lot of ppl watching her back. I'll be dead before she even gets a chance for a hit.
-E
PS: the Shaving cream thing SO wasn't MY fault, u know that! And besides it was Jack that took it and threw it all on my face!
U know I wouldn't let her. I think she really likes me, since we have been talking a lot lately, and on one of the days that Kyle dumped her, I was the one that clamed her down. Yea, I think I'll do it. I see her next period.
-L
!Yahoo! (note the sarcasm). But fine. If u like her that much, who am I to stop u?
–E
Thanks : )
-L
U owe me. Lolx
–E
Emmi was just about to do the work that Snape assigned when a note came from another direction.
What was that all about?
–Ron
Nothing really, Lance just wanted to see if it was okay that he ask out one of the biggest pussy in the school.
-E
Ivy?
-R
Do you know any other pussys?
–E
Well DM isn't the greatest person to hang around with all evening. Lol
-R
Guess your right. So is there any more new info for the O.o.t.P.?
-E
Nothing that you don't already know. We haven't had a new lead since we got here. Snape is getting desperate enough to go to the classes himself. See?
-R
Emmi looked up to see Snape yell at Jack for not having the correct answer to the square route, 605,451. Emmi smiled.
I had another dream last night…
-E
You haven't seemed to have a lot of them lately.
-R
I know. But this one wasn't like the others. It was like the ones that I used to have when I was really younger; they would scare me. I don't really remember it but I know it had to do with water
She did remember it. Every detail in fact, but she didn't want to tell him that.
That's odd. Your dreams are just you sitting alone in a corner reading, with piles of books surrounding you
-R
Ron made it seem like that was all that Emmi ever dreamed about, books. Countlessly long books. Emmi shuddered to think of the ones that would come before that. The books were a relief to her. She would repeatedly have dreams were she was drowning. And that was it, just swimming in a large pool of water, when she would suddenly find herself, tided to the bottom, and gasping for breathe. Now, being older she would try and laugh and say it was just a childish fear. Lauren telling everyone about it though seemed to help her get over it and to see how stupid it really was.
Hey! I happen to believe in dream symbolize and that ur dreams are what ur mind is trying to tell you when your asleep. Do u think it means anything?
-E
Not if u look in the Dream Oracle book, but you never can tell with a witch's dream. Think of Harry's.
-R
True.
–E
So who are u going to the dance with?
-R
No one yet. I love V's Day! It's the one holiday that is really made by the Card Company. There is no religion to it at all! I'm going anti this year on that day though. That will be fun, with all the black lipstick and stuff… me and Minnie are calling it Death Day, but strangely enough we're still going to the dance. Who are u taking?
-E
Well, I was wondering if I could, um, take you?
-R
Really? Like a date?
-E
You don't have to say yes, and if you don't please don't let this effect our friendship! I just thought it would be (as u Americans say) cool, if u and I went together.
-R
He had been practicing what to say for a week. He just had to go with her.
But in the books that I've read, it seemed like you liked Hermione...
-E
NO! Don't get me wrong, Hermione is great and all, but the publishers thought it would be good to add some unrealistic romance going on between me and her.
-R
Okay, then I'd love to be (as u British ppl say) your partner. 3
