Here we go again with Snape's Little Secret...
Chapter 6: So . . . Everyone Knows
I sat at the table in disbelief. How could the whole school know? I mean, yeah everyone's gonna know when Harry does something, but I'm not Harry and neither is Draco. This cannot be good. I looked from Hermione to Harry, they both looked at me with concern. I put my head in my hands, and Harry put a supportive arm around me.
"Students to your tables please, breakfast is about to be served," Dumbledore bellowed, and everyone else was getting up so I did too.
I really did not want to go to the Slytherin table, but I had to. I tried to find a seat at the end of the table, but there weren't any. There was just one spot left at the table: next to Draco. I took a deep breath and sat down next to him. Not even looking at him once. "Lily," he whispered in my ear, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything."
I turned to face him, our faces were mere inches apart, and "that's a load of shit, you bastard." The food had appeared on the table so I grabbed a few things and started to eat. I noticed while I ate that the whole table kept looking over at me. They're all gonna never talk to me again, not that that's a bad thing in a most cases, but still. I finished the bagel I was eating then stood to leave, but Draco took hold of my arm.
"Don't go, I'll miss you too much," he said with a sly smile on his face. His hand felt like a wrench was tightening around my wrist. I tried to pull away but was unable to. "Sit down, now." He pulled me back into my seat. "You can't go anywhere until I'm ready to leave."
"Who died and made you king?"
"I've always been king baby, you were just too dumb to realize."
"You skeezy bast-" at that point I got extremely mad and punched him with my free hand. He fell back onto Goyle and he let go of me. I got up and ran out of the Great Hall. I ran to the Grand Staircase and collapsed in front of a Transfiguration room. I couldn't control myself; the tears came pouring out of my eyes like a waterfall. I didn't want to move, I didn't want anything really, I just wanted to bawl my frickin eyes out. I cried on the floor there for about fifteen minutes, and then remembered that breakfast would be over in a few minutes. I got up slowly and tried to find a place where I could cry for a while. I couldn't go back to the common room, they'd harass me, I could go back to the Entrance Hall, because people were there too. I decided to go up the stairs to try and find a secluded area. I eventually found an empty classroom on the fifth floor. I sat there crying and trying to collect my thoughts. A knock came at the door, I didn't answer, but they knocked again, I just sat there. The door opened and Harry and Hermione came in. I stopped crying and wipe my face with the back of my hand.
"Hey," Harry said as he sat down next to me.
"Hey," I replied.
"You can't sit up here all day, you know," Hermione said quietly, "you have to eat and go see Ron and stuff." I smiled meekly.
"I almost thought you were gonna tell me to go to class."
"Me? Never!" She giggled.
"I do have to talk to some teachers though. About some stuff."
"What stuff?" Harry inquired.
"Just stuff."
"Oh, okay."
"I should probably do that now then, before it gets too late in the day. And you guys should probably go to class." I stood and the other two followed suit.
"Us? Go to class? Never!" Hermione laughed. We all stood there for a moment and just laughed. It was a major relief for me.
"I don't think I'll be able to go back in there for a while, you know."
"Yeah, I figured as much. So I'll take over until you're ready to go back in," she put her arm around me.
"Thanks. So, you'll keep me posted with the latest?"
"Of course," this time I hugged her.
"Guys, I don't mean to break up your warm and fuzzy girl moment, but . . ." he looked down at the Marauder's Map in his hand, "Filch and Mrs. Norris are on their way here." We took off through a secret passage seconds before Filch and that dumb cat entered the room. "I'm not entirely sure where this goes, so . . ."
We eventually came out into the Gryfindor Common Room. So this is what it looks like, I thought, I'll get to know it better soon enough. "I don't think I be here very long, I might caught." They quickly showed me a few secret passages in and out of the room, and I took one that went down to the fourth floor. I then went to find Snape, McGonagall and Dumbledore.
