Chapter 2: You think this is Funny?

After that whole debacle with Raven and Draco, I went to the first compartment to meet with the Headboy, Kevin Whitby, who was a mindless Hufflepuff. Okay, maybe, he wasn't as mindless as I have to pretend he is. I have to act something like a Slytherin. I probably won't put many people up on pedestals saying how great they are, unless, in my eyes they are. But whatever, I waited for the Hufflepuff seventh year to come. In the meanwhile, I had outlined the patrol schedules for the Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, and Gryffindor.

After twenty minutes of waiting, Kevin Whitby arrived in the compartment. He had a jolly smile until he saw me. He walked over towards me, and greeted me.

"Good day Valentine," Kevin spoke rather quickly as he looked through the stack of papers.

I cleared my throat causing him to stop and look over. "Hello Whitby. Hope you don't mind that I outlined the patrol schedules for the houses," I shrugged as I ran my fingers through my auburn hair. Kevin proceeded to look over to me in complete shock.

He managed to ramble out, "You did our work?"

I nodded my head, "Yeah, I hope you don't mind. I was bored." He shook his head as we waited for the prefects to come along to the meeting. Kevin seemed nice for a seventh year Hufflepuff. I could definitely work with him this year. However, I definitely could not work with Pansy Parkinson. She was the female prefect for Slytherin. Everything out of her mouth was ridiculous. What WAS DRAKIE doing? WHY ARE YOU HEADGIRL? I swore that this girl was going to make me snap before the end of the meeting. How could Professor Snape name her one of prefects of Slytherin House?

Towards, the end of the meeting, Draco was annoying a pair of Gryffindor prefects Hermonie Granger and Ron Weasley. I was giggling and smirking as Malfoy insulted them. However, Pansy made a wailing screech I literally snapped at that point. Pansy had made the whole the whole meeting unbearable. She had flinged herself on Draco while pushing me into Whitby one too many times. Luckily, Whitby was able to catch me. Therefore, I couldn't have helped myself, I yelled at that BITCH.

"PANSY, YOU DIRTY TWAT! THE NEXT TIME YOU TOUCH ME YOU WILL BECOME A FUCKING MUDBLOOD!!!," I continued to huff as I drew my wand.

The company of Hogwarts students remained hush as they had never heard that come out of my own mouth. I had my wand at the throat of Pansy. She whimpered as I glared. As can be noted, I have no tolerance for her and I don't have the best of tempers. Furthermore, I have this vengeful side of myself that would probably hit her with a very bad hex. Fortunately for her, Draco had some sort of way to calm me down. He grabbed me by the arm, while turning up his nose at everyone.

"As you can plainly see, the meeting has adjourned. And really, Pansy could you not have lain off those creampuffs? You honestly have gotten rotund," Draco muttered as Pansy was about to cry.

With that, Draco dragged me out of the meeting by my arm. I had still had my wand raised and a scowl lay predominately on my face. As we had walked down the compartments, Draco had slung his arm around my waist. I was briefly speaking to him about how Pansy will die by my hands. That would have ended as we saw the "Royals' Compartment". The Royals was the nickname we gave ourselves. It comprised Raven, Anna, myself, and we included Draco every so often. As we walked into the compartment, Raven Williams was sitting there with my best female friend, Anna Peacock. They had been plotting the royal destruction of the Weasley Twins. It would have seemed that Draco's arm was still protectively around my waist which causes many eyes to be raised. Raven smirked as Anna giggled. She took one look at Draco and I and let out another chuckle.

Anna stated, "So when's the wedding, guys?"

I nearly threw up. How could Anna have said that? She knew how much I loathed Draco, well half of the time. He was quite funny and loyal. Regardless, he was my "friend". I got myself out of Draco's grasps and sat down looking at the window. I crossed my arms and had this puss on my face. I continued to ignore my group of friends, despite the fact Raven was throwing little heart shape pieces of paper at my head. That was really beginning to irk me, so I stood up and stomped off.

Urgh, it would have seemed that my friends loved to annoy me. They knew how I never liked Draco's snooty attitude. Sure, you could have said that I thought I was all high and mighty but it was never to the affect of Draco. Hell, all of Slytherin thought who the hell they were. I just thought that I was better than all of them because of my upbringing. Anyways, I continued my stomping down the corridors of the train, until I barged into a figure. I went flying and landed on my bottom as did the other person. I grumbled and whipped out my wand ready to hex someone till they reached Merlin. It turned out to be something rather foolish to do as the person was Seamus Finnigan. He probably had a momentarily lapse of sanity and helped a Slytherin up. I dusted myself off as Seamus was pretty much shocked at whom he just helped up.

"Why hello Seamus!," I exclaimed while I smiled at him.

He was still a bit shocked as to why I was being so very nice. It's not like I was never nice to a Gryffindor, but being a friend of Draco was a life sentenced in Hogwarts. He gulped as he muttered some words.

"Er, hello," Seamus said in a puzzled manner.

"Seamus, it's nice to see you! You know I never got the chance to tell such a handsome man that I liked how you blew things up in our first year. You know my middle name is Phoenix. And a phoenix is born from the ashes of fire," I spoke as I flinged myself on his shoulder. He looked extremely uncomfortable. I batted my eyes until I heard a howl from a stupid stupid boy.

"Finnigan, you better remove yourself from the presence of a pureblood Slytherin," the loud angry voice of Draco Malfoy bellowed. His cronies, Goyle and Crabbe, were at his side. Geez, this wasn't going to go well. Draco had told Goyle and Crabbe to attack Seamus. Unfortunately, I had to step in the middle of everyone.

"Draco, hush! I fell and Sea—Finnigan helped me up. I thought I broke my ankle. That was all. Just leave him alone," I muttered as I shoo'ed Seamus away and well winked at him as well. Draco raised his eyebrow and sneered at the figure of Seamus walking away. I slapped Draco's shoulder.

"Goodness, Drake, you don't have to--," I was interrupted as Raven appeared in a confused manner. He laughed as he stood proudly.

"Mates, I hexed Longbottom! That stupid twat was babbling about a fucking plant. Soo, I kinda hexed him into Hairy's stupid head," Williams cackled.

I rolled my eyes as I spoke, "And you probably want to know how you did that?"

A smug Raven narrowed his eyes at me and said, "I know how I did that, Mercedes!"

"Nope you don't, Rasin head!," I grunted.

"Yes I do, Biscuit head," Raven smugly returned.

With that, Anna came running down the corridor of the train. Goodness, what else would help because I left these nimrods alone for a bit?! She had accidentally hexed one of the Weasley Twins. I think it was George. Oh well, who really cared. Eventually, we all went back to our compartment to relax a bit before we got to Hogwarts.
