Ch2- Princesses and Bad Dreams

"Princess? Princess open the door." The man outside her room had been there for hours. She had locked herself in her room after they had told her.

"No! Go Away!" She shouted from the corner she was curled up in. Next to was her photo album. Some were muggle photos she had taken with the muggle camera Felix had given her. But the family photos were with an enchanted camera. Past holidays, days out. BANG!

The door lay flat on the floor.

"DAVID!"

"DAVID!" Maggie was sitting upright, sweat running down my face. Everyone was still asleep except from Hermione. She was looking at her worriedly.

"Are you alright? You've been saying tossing and turning for ages." She walked over and sat on her bed.

"Yeah. Just a bad dream. Sorry did I wake you?" She shook her head.

"I've been awake for ages. Just can't get over the fact that she chose me over some of the other 7th year girls." Ever since they had got back to the common room last Hermione had not stopped going on about it. Maggie looked at the clock next to her bed. 6:30 a.m.

"I think I'll just go down to breakfast and read my book. It is Saturday isn't it?" Maggie asked getting up and walking over to the shower.

"Yeah. We have the day off so the first years can get used to the castle. I'll show you round the castle later," she answered. I nodded my head and entered the bathroom.

Maggie entered the Great Hall for breakfast. There were only about 7 other students in the hall. Professor Malfoy and Snape were sitting at the teacher's table. Snape was trying to explain something to Malfoy but he clearly looked bored. Maggie took her seat, put some toast on her plate, poured some pumpkin juice got out her book. Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell By Susanna Clarke. Felix had given it to her as a goodbye present. After 15 minutes reading, she was already bored. Maggie looked up from the table to see if anyone else had come down to breakfast. A few more people had but not many. She looked over to the teachers' table and caught Professor Malfoy's gaze. He nodded in acknowledge and Maggie returned a smile. She continued to look around the room catching another Malfoy's gaze. Draco still looked peeved but did the same as his father. A nod and turned back to the boy next to him. A smile spread across her face at the thought that she pissed him off that bad. She put my book in my bag and went for a walk around the castle.

The castle seemed to get more and more impressive with every turn. Paintings, armour and statues everywhere. Maggie went down some stairs, which she guessed led to the dungeons.

"And what are you doing down here?" Maggie jumped at the voice. She turned around to see Professor Snape standing behind her.

"Sorry Professor. I was just finding where each of my classes were for Monday. I thought I would find them easier this early as hardly anyone is up." She answered nervously. Snape raised an eyebrow.

"You're taking Potions?" Maggie nodded. "You must be one of the only Gryffindors taking it. Apart from Miss Granger." He laughed.

"I have always enjoyed Potions. My mother taught me about potions since I was 6. My father said she was one of the best at Hogwarts. I am better at theory than practical." Snape looked at her quizzically.

"What was you mothers maiden name if you don't mind me asking?" It was a bit of an odd question but she answered it all the same.

"Macabie."

"Georgina Macabie?" He asked. Maggie was stunned.

"Yes. Did you know her?" A small smile appeared.

"I knew her very well. And your father was right, she was a very gifted potions students. I sat next to her during my 5th and 6th years. Unlike a lot of Gyffindors she was nice to everyone in Slytherin. She went out and married a Slytherin. Your father. You have your mother's smile and eyes you know," Maggie could not help but smile at this comment. "Maybe I could have the pleasure one night of your company. I would love to learn about the Academy's teachings of Potions."

"Of course. But could it be once I am settled? I would like to get used to everything first." He smiled and nodded. "Well sorry to be rude but I need to go and meet Hermione." And with that Maggie left Snape to get on with his days work.

"Where have you been? We were supposed to meet half an hour ago. I am sorry but I have some Prefect duties to do today so I can't take you round. I am so sorry." Maggie just smiled.

"It is ok. I found my way around this morning. It wasn't as bad as I thought." Hermione and Maggie left the hall, neither of them noticing a certain someone's gaze following them out. At the entrance each went their separate ways. Maggie decided to explore the grounds. She had her bag with her, which stored her reading book, wand and glasses. She wondered around the lake hoping to catch a glimpse of the Giant Squid Seamus told her about. Maggie found a little tree by the lake. It seemed to the only place around the lake with shade AND a descent view. She sat leaning against the tree just staring at the lake.

"David! Stay away from me!" She stood holding her wand, pointing it at his chest. His eyes were blood shot and he had bags under them. He had gotten considerably thinner since she had last saw him. He held his wand shakily in the same position she did.

"You betrayed me! You and them! How could you not…"

"Because it's wrong! Don't you think it's wrong David? What if they wanted me? What if you were to do what you have done to everyone else to me huh? David? ANSWER ME!"

"ANSWER ME!" Maggie broke suddenly from her dream. She looked up to find Professor Malfoy standing over her.

"Erm.. I'm sorry. What did you say?" The Professor looked at her in concern.

"Are you ok? You have been sitting out here like this for ages." Maggie suddenly the tears running down her cheek. She put her hand to her cheek to find the were soaking.

"Yeah," she sniffed. "I'm fine." He let out a little laugh.

"Anyone that sits out here in the freezing cold, crying is not fine. Here take my coat. And come with me. You need to warm up." He helped her up, gave her his cloak and they made their way inside.

"Now Miss Donohoe," he gave her a mug of hot chocolate and sat in the green velvet chair opposite. His study was just like the common room but green and smaller. There was a door at the back of the room leading, to what she guessed, his chambers. The chairs they were sitting on where positioned right by the fireplace. She just stared into the fireplace, listening to what Malfoy was saying. "Can you tell me what you were doing sitting in the freezing cold crying?" She broke her gaze from the fire to look at him.

"Just thinking about the past. Pretty stupid things really. The day I started Girls Academy, my first potion that went wrong, the day my mother died." Maggie went back to gazing into the fire.

"I knew your mother." He was now joining her staring into the fire. She nodded even though he wouldn't see her. "She and your father were inseparable. In and out of each other's common room, hours just staring at each in the library. But I have to admit, I didn't know they had got married. Snape told me that you were their daughter just after he saw you looking for your classrooms. You're just like your mother. You have her…"

"Eyes and smile. Snape said the same thing." She began to laugh. "It's only my first whole day here and I have already been in tears. Thank you for getting me out of the cold sir." Maaggie left her seat, got her things and headed for the door. "And sir. Can you not tell anyone what I have said? It's just I don't want anyone to know. Is that alight?" He nodded and she left the room.
