Amber Eyes
Chapter 2: Isolated
We talked the whole way through the train trip. Most people would get bored of just listening to someone. Never getting a word in edge wise. But I found her fascinating.
Her voice rang like wind chimes as she babbled on. Weather she thought I was paying attention or not, she kept talking. I hardly got any of it accept that she hated school uniforms. And she had always loved potions. But what she really wanted to be a professional quitage player when she grew up.
That I got. "So I'm pretty good at quitage, do you think you could take me". I gave a flirty smile hoping that she would catch on that all I wanted was for her to notice me, pay attention to me. "really". she said as she raised a thin perfect eyebrow at me." I would kill you, there would be nothing left accept muscle tissue." "but I won't even let you keep that, I will throw the rest out to the hippogriffs." She gave me an evil smile. Somehow I felt that she was serious. Most guys would feel creeped out and label her a weirdo. But that violent comment only made my interest in her grow stronger.
But in a matter of minutes that moment that I never thought I dread came. The trail pulled up to Hogwarts and slowed steadily to a halt.
"Well" she said as she pulled her backpack over her shoulder. "I guess I will see you never". She looked down at her feet. Looking disappointed about the fact she had just said. "It doesn't have to be the last time we see each other". I said as I spotted her attempting to get her suitcase off the ledge.
"What do you mean?" she asked as she retrieved her luggage at last. "I mean… Would you allow me to carry your things and escort you to the dining hall?"
I was scared to see the expression on her face. Or maybe I was scared of being slapped. Cause you never know with these British girls.
But I was greeted with my pleasure her smiling. "Sure!" she exclaimed. She sounded so excited I might just have to go scream. She handed me her bags. And with the help of cursing out Malfoy, we were out of the cabin in no time.
We walked in silence. Even when we dropped off are bags. As I set her down she whispered a "thank you" to me and kept walking in front of me. We never met eye contact once. I almost felt bad that I had asked that question. But I shook it off as we neared the dining hallway. She turned to face me.
"Ok. I'm just going to lay this out for you nice short and sweet."" You're real cute and I wish we weren't in different houses, but we are so this is all I can leave you with for now." And before I could even comprehend what she had said. She leaned in and kissed me.
It was not a make out, Or a real emotional kiss no touching or laying into each other. But it was the best thing that ever happened to me. It was quick then she was scurrying off to join her dining table with the other Slytherins. But I can tell you one thing. The kiss wasn't that special. It was the feeling that came with it.
The feeling that there was no one in the world but me and her for that one moment. That we could do whatever we pleased and no one could stop us. It was the gorgeous feeling of being unlike others. And I loved it. I could never lose the memory of the sensation. It was with me for eternity.
