Aideen's P.O.V.
Tonight is the night that I will get the stone, he told me about what is guarding it and how to defeat it. That is pathetic, that the stone is being protected by only traps that anybody can get through.
I get up from my bed and go to the third-floor corridor with Drew beside me. We have planned for it to be a surprise for our mate. He thinks that we are not going to do it and let him get it by himself.
We enchant a magical harp and make sure nobody is following us. I heard light footsteps and made sure we got to a shadowed part of the room before making the harp stop playing music.
We heard the growls of Fluffy and the screams of Ronald and Hermione. I guess they followed us. They ran out the door and I am pretty sure Ronald was limping and was bleeding.
I then put the music back on before making the wards stronger around the room. I locked the door and we went through the trapdoor. We fell onto plants that were squeezing us. I remembered it was Devils Snare.
I told Drew that and we both relaxed. We slipped through and made it to the key challenge. I thought of something, what if Professor Flitwick... He did. I froze all for the keys and did Alohomora. It worked.
That is actually pretty smart, makes people believe they had to fly up and find a key when in reality, all they had to do was freeze them and open the door with an unlocking spell.
Good job Professor Flitwick! Next was Minni's turn. Hers was an enchanted chess piece. I heard Drew say, "Windgardium Leviosa!" I thought what was he doing? He floated me over the chess set and sat me down near the door. I did the same to him and we moved on to the next challenge.
It was potions. Drew took out his wand and said calmly, "Aquamenti!" The fire though did not go out. I tried "Accio fire extinguisher." Surprisingly it only came in a few seconds. There must have been one nearby.
I put out the fire for a second and we climbed through before it came back to life. If someone were to follow us down here, they would have a tough time. It would be longer for them because they would have to go through all the trials with no help from what we did.
We looked in the mirror and I saw myself pocketing a red stone, that must be it. I did not want to use it but I wanted to find it. I looked up and gasped. This was the Mirror of Erised.
That is dangerous to be in a school full of curious children. It is Dumbledore though so it makes sense. We go through all of the challenges again and get to our dorm to go to bed. I plan on giving Tom the stone for the Yule Ball, which is in a week and a half.
In about four days we get to go home for Yule. That is great, I get to spend time with my Uncle, Grandparents, the Malfoy, and Drew. I also get to see what Tom looks like without him being kind of like a parasite.
A week and a half later, we were getting ready for the Yule ball. I am wearing a long light blue dress with earrings, neutral makeup, and glass heels.
I went for the muggle Cinderella princess look. I also had a blue tongue piercing in and a snowflake necklace. Pansy looked beautiful too, she had on a yellow dress, yellow and red makeup, her short hair in a complicated hairstyle which still was pretty, and rose jewelry.
To top it all off she had on yellow wedges. Apparently, all of us girls themed our outfits on muggle Disney princesses. Pansy was Belle.
Daphne was Aurora from Sleeping Beauty. She had on a short pink and blue dress that tied in the back, rose jewelry, pink makeup, pink heels, and her long hair in pretty curls.
The boys had on black suits and ties. They looked very handsome in them. When we stepped into the ballroom where the ball was taking place (where else would it take place) we were shocked. Even I was, and I planned the thing. It was very mystical and well magical.
It was a fairyland-themed ball with a lot of decorations. There were fake trees and fairy lights. I have definitely outdone myself with this.
It was so pretty. I saw Quirrel and went over to him. He looked handsome enough, I can not wait until he is back in his own body. I tapped on his shoulder and he looked at me up and down. I would have been creeped out if his eyes did not turn red.
That is how I knew Tom took control. I quietly whisper to him, "I have a present for you. Do you want to see it? Drew helped me with it."
He looked confused but nodded. I took his hand and walked to Drew. I kept it behind my back when Drew handed it to me so he could not see it yet. I then walked out of the door while he was following me to get more privacy.
When I turned around I said, "Close your eyes and hold out your hands." He looked suspicious at me but did what I said. I placed the stone in his hands and told him to open it. When he saw the stone his eyes widened and he spun me around in happiness.
I can see why. I mean sharing a body is terrible in the idea. Especially if you met your mate and could not touch or see them without being suspicious. He said, "Thank you for the present." I nodded my head.
"My only condition is that you do the ritual before Yule which is in a week. You can do it tonight or tomorrow and have plenty of time to recover. Then on Yule, Drew and I want to see what our mate looks like without anything getting in the way." I told him seriously.
He looked at me and said he would do it tonight. We went back into the ball room and danced not with each other of course since he is still in a teacher's body. Not for long though. I can hardly wait and when I told Drew the plan he could hardly wait too.
We had fun that night but soon it was time to sleep. We got ready for bed and then I curled up into Drew and slept while my other mate was getting his body back.
