Eyes Tell All
I was walking out of the Great Hall, feeling pretty tired, and talking to Vala. When all of a sudden a strong hand grabbed me and spun me around. It was, once again, Malfoy.
"God! Don't you ever get tired of this!" I sighed.
"Never Sweet Cheeks." He answered. He was smirking and I was in no mood at all. "We never got to finish what we started on the train, remember?"
"How could I forget!" I said, sarcastically, while trying to pass by. He wouldn't let me. "Come on Malfoy! Just let me go!"
"Not this time, baby!" He didn't just call me that again! And what was with sweet cheeks? Oh he's dead but I'm to tired right now. I just want to go to bed.
"Hey-" Vala started but I cut her off.
"It's okay. Go. I can handle this."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, just go. I'll be fine. Really." I stressed the last part. Vala reluctantly gave up and left.
"Alright I'll see you tomorrow."
"Yeah." I waited till she turned the corner and faced Malfoy again. "Happy now?"
"You have NO idea." He answered, then inching closer to me. I could almost feel his blood coursing through his veins, I was feeling weak again. Putting his hand on my thigh, he said. "Now, where were we? Oh, yes now I remember." But before he could do anything, I heard a voice.
"Hey! Malfoy you bastard let her go!" It was Harry. Man, he really knows when to show up. Malfoy let go of me and turned away. Some people had stopped in the hall. Apparently, I'm good enough to fight over because at that precise moment Harry and Draco raised wands and cast their first spells. I was faster. In a split second, I had cast a simple enchantment that could freeze spells instantly. Everyone turned and looked to the direction of the spell. Their eyes went almost out of their sockets when they noticed that the new girl just did that.
Without a second thought I grabbed Harry and Draco and we ran.
After a few minutes, we stopped running. I turned facing the two boys. Moonlight was beaming on them. They were breathing heavily from the running and it was kinda cute. Both were leaning against the wall near a window. I was on the other side of the hall. After a moment or two, Harry spoke. "What the HELL was that!"
"Oh nothing," I answered closing the gap between us. "Now who can be a good, little boy and show me where the 3rd floor painting of a castle is?"
"Why?" Malfoy asked, "And that sure as hell was something back there!"
"Oh! That little incantation was nothing!" I said innocently. Then adding sarcastically, "Listen pretty boy, I just need to get there alright! God! Why are you so stubborn? You're such an asshole." I mumbled the last part.
"What'd you say!" He spat back.
"I said, 'You're such an asshole!'" answered and closed the distance immediately between us. I decided to change my attitude for right now. Yeah I just yelled at the kid but he was amused and thought he knew everything, so I threw him a curve ball. I slowly leaned on him and placed my hands on his biceps. He tensed up. "Calm down, I'm not going to hurt you!" I said. Through the moonlight I could see Malfoy's grey eyes. I peered deep in them and was shocked. Oh yeah that's right I didn't tell you…I can look in someone's eyes and see their soul. Pretty cool, huh! Anyways, I looked away suddenly. I felt horrible for the kid. Remembering Harry was still there I turned to him and moved closer.
I leaned against Harry just like I did Malfoy, if not closer, so that only a few inches separated us. I could feel his whole body tense which was kinda cute. Placing my hands on his biceps, I looked into his eyes and almost fainted. The emeralds staring back at me were stunning. I slowly raised my hands to his glasses and took them off. He didn't even flinch. "It's okay," I said when he closed his eyes.
"Yeah well I can't really see anything!"
"I know silly, that's why you should open them!" I giggled. He opened his eyes, squinting. "Listen, just relax! I want to see you eyes without glasses on." If it was even possible his eyes were even more stunning! The troubles this boy had encountered and still battled were amazing. Internal or external, this boy's been through hell! I turned away. "I'm sorry." I said turning away and giving Harry back his glasses. As he reached for them, I added. "Ya know, you look cuter without them. You should try contacts or that spell that corrects vision instantly to 20/20 vision."
"I'll think about it. Now can I have my glasses back." Before I could answer Malfoy once again interrupted a perfectly good moment. I began to get a feeling that this would happen a lot.
"Are you two finished. It's been a good ten minutes already! Oh and I'll take those." He snatched Harry's glasses and incinerated them right there on the spot!
"Malfoy! You pig-headed, son-of-a-bitch why the hell did you do that for?" Harry yelled. Sensing a fight I stepped in between them. I put a hand on either boys' chest.
"Listen, Draco, why don't you go to you dorm, alright?"
"Excuse me but when did you become the voice of reasoning!" He spat back.
"Look, it's late. I'm really tired. And I'll admit asking both of you to help was a bad idea. Now just go Draco, please!"
"Why do I have to be the one to go?" He whined.
"Umm…Let's think about that, shall we? Maybe because you can see where your going without glasses that have just been incinerated!"
"Fine. I'll go but this isn't over!"
"Yeah, whatever!" I sighed, wondering how many times I was going to hear that. Turning to Harry. "Are you okay? Well of course you're not! Listen, I need you to stare straight at me and don't move, okay?" He nodded. "Alright here goes." I said the incantation then after the long pause. "Uh…Harry, can you see anything?"
"Huh…umm…yeah, YEAH! I can see better than my glasses! Wow! Thanks a lot!" His smile was as genuine as a kid at X-mas. I had a feeling he didn't smile like that often. "I've never seen this good in my life. How did you perfect the spell?"
"I used to do it for my friends back home. Now that you can see great, can you show me the 3rd floor painting?"
"Yeah, I know a short cut!" We raced off down the hall and in a few minutes we were in front of the painting of a castle. I turned to Harry.
"Listen, thanks a lot. See ya tomorrow!"
"Yeah, bye." As he turned the corner, I put my face close to the painting and whispered 'Blood Ripple'. The castle doors opened so that three people in a line, horizontally, could fit with space. Mind you the painting almost stretched to the ceiling. Gingerly, I walked through.
I was amazed! Everything was royal purple, gold, and black with hints green. My favorite colors! From the entrance in the painting to the living room was a small hallway lit with hanging lanterns. The living room was furnished with a fireplace, two long sofas, a couple of chairs, a coffee table, a regular, round table able to seat 9, and a roll top desk. Old, hanging gas lamps were all over. On the other side of the room was a staircase leading upstairs. Curious I followed the twisting stairs upstairs.
There were four doors at the top. I opened the one closest on my left. Bathroom. It was very beautiful. Red, gold, and white marble supplied a shower, bath, toilet, and two sinks. Interesting. Anyways the next door was a bedroom. The canopy of the bed was a beautiful, sheer black. The sheets were of black silk with green pillows embroidered in all purple and gold. Also inside was a mirror bureau, closet, fireplace, desk and some chairs. My trunk was already there. I opened the next door. It opened to a balcony. I could see the entire school grounds from here. It was beautiful in the moonlight. Anyways on the next and last door. I opened it and it was…empty. Disappointed much! "I'll find something to do with you later." I said and I went to bed.
