The other miss Granger
Chapter 7:
Jolie Defontaine sat silently and still like a sculpture in the great hall. Everybody was staring at Harry Potter, Her sister's best friend. Angry shouts were shouted about how he wasn't 17 yet or that he cheated.
She saw Harry speak to her sister and the red haired one Ron Weasley.
"Harry Potter! " Dumbledore shouted again. "Harry! Up here, if you please!"
She saw Hermione give Harry a little push, she could see the worry in her younger sisters eyes.
As Harry walked in between the Gryffindor and Hufflepuff table she noticed that everybody's eyes were on him. He looked slightly green. Poor boy.
She watched as Harry walked through the same door Viktor, Cedric and Fleur did.
"it is ridiculous!" Solene, one of the Beauxbatons students said speaking in french, she was clearly outraged.
"Jolie will you find out what is going on? You are head girl after all." Tiphaine asked me. I nodded.
"I will ask Madame Maxime." I told her. She smiled and thanked me.
"Jolie bring everyone back to the carriage please." she asked me in French.
"Of course Madame." I said and curtsied slightly.
"Follow me Beauxbaton!" I said loudly. All the Beauxbaton students followed me out to grounds. I shivered slightly when the cold air hit me.
"JOLIE!" I heard someone shout my name. I stopped, looking around I saw Hermione running towards me.
"Tomorrow will you have breakfast with me at the Gryffindor table?" she asked me. I nodded.
"It would be my pleasure." I told her smiling. I turned to face the rest of my school.
"This is my half sister, Hermione Granger. Please treat her nicely." I told the students from my school. They all bowed or curtsied. Hermione looked slightly overwhelmed.
"Hello." she squeaked.
"You better get back inside Hermione, it's dark." I told her. She nodded and rushed of back towards the castle.
"She seems lovely." Antoine a tall boy with blonde hair and green eyes told me. I nodded.
"She is." I replied, walking towards the carriage.
I was in mine and Fleur's room waiting for her to return. I was sitting at my vanity table, brushing my hair and humming. When the door opened.
"Fleur!" I said standing up to greet her. She hugged me and I hugged her back.
"Can you believe their our four champions! It is the TRIwiward tournament not the fourwiward tournament." she huffed.
"And how did he even put his name in the goblet he isn't even 17!" she went on.
"I'm worried for him." I whispered. She looked at me curiously.
"Why? You barley know the boy?" she asked me. I shrugged.
"He is Hermione Best friend. Whatever he does I have no doubt that Hermione will follow. It could lead to her being killed!" I told her. She hugged me again.
"I'm sure little Harry will be fine." she told me. I tried to smile.
"I hope so." I muttered.
"I have photo shoot and interview tomorrow! You have to help me do my hair!" she said, changing the subject. I grinned.
"Of course, Fleur. I would be glad to help." I told. She grinned.
"Now I must get some beauty sleep or I will look even more than a troll next to you." she said, still grinning and winked. I laughed and shook my head.
"Good night Fleur." I said getting into my queen sized bed.
"Bonne nuit ma belle." she replied yawning. I grinned and fell to sleep.
The next morning I was heading down to the great hall earlier than anyone else to eat breakfast with Hermione. I was humming when I walked right into what felt like a brick wall. I was about to fall until I felt arms wrap around my waist, stopping me. I looked up only to meet bright grey eyes.
Startled I moved back.
"Sorry." I said, blushing. I looked up only to see Cedric Diggory one of the Hogwarts champions. He was extremely handsome, Tall with chiselled features, a straight nose, dark hair, and bright grey eyes. When he saw me I saw his eyes widen. I get that reaction from everyone.
"It's alright I should have been looking where I was going." he said and gave me a smile. I smiled back .
"Your Jolie Defontaine right?" he asked me. I nodded. He grinned.
"I thought so everybody's been saying how beautiful you are and you are the most beautiful girl I've ever seen-" he stopped and covered his mouth with his hands. I blushed,
"Thank you." I said. He grinned and ran his right hand through his hair.
"I'm Cedric Diggory by the way." he said.
"It's nice to meet you." I said and kissed his cheek. Before walking into the great hall. I looked back to see him holding his cheek, grinning. I smiled.
"Good morning Hermione." I said and sat down beside her. She looked up and smiled at me.
"Morning." she replied. I took a croissant and poured myself a cup of tea.
"What do you do on sunday's?" I asked her. She shrugged.
"My homework and I go to the library." she told me.
"You will have to show me the library. I love reading." I told her. If it was possible, her smile widened.
"You love reading to? What's your favourite subjects?" she asked me. I grinned.
"I enjoy Potions, Transfiguration, defence against the dark arts, care of magical creatures and ancient runes." I told her.
"How many o.w.l did you get?" she asked me.
"I got 9 outstanding." I told her proudly. She looked at me in awe.
"What are you going to do after Beauxbatons?" she asked me. I could see she was curious.
"I don't really know. I might become a Magizzologist, a healer, a professor or a dragon keeper." I told her grinning.
"A Dragon keeper!" she said looking shocked. I nodded.
"But you would get scared." she told me. I grinned.
"I wouldn't. They wouldn't hurt me. I'm what some would call a dragon speaker. When I sing they are calm and they listen to me. They would never hurt me." I told her. She was yet again looking at me in awe.
"I've read about that but only one family of veela had that power." she told me.
"Yes my family. The Defontaine's. None of my family since my great great great great great grandfather was a dragon speaker. I'm the only person alive in the whole world who can." I told her.
"That's amazing." she said. I grinned.
"Hermione who is this lovely lady?" two identical redheads asked sitting down opposite us. Ron sat down beside them looking grumpy.
"That's her sister." He huffed, stuffing a piece of bacon in his mouth.
"Really?" the twins said at the same time. I grinned.
"Yes, I'm Hermione's older sister. Jolie Defontaine." I said, they both took either of my hands and kissed my knuckles.
"It is a pleasure to meet such a beautiful lady." they said at the same time and winked.
"He's Fred-" the one in front of me said pointing to the one sitting in front of Hermione.
"And he's George." the other introduced his brother.
"Well it's a pleasure to meet you both." I said.
"Mum will love her-" Fred began.
"yeah so well mannered-" George said
"Wonder which one of us she'll try to marry her of to." Fred and George said at the same time. They looked at each other and said "Me!" at the same time.
"Looks like you'll be marrying both of us." Fred said and winked. I looked over at Hermione who shook her head.
"Mrs Weasley, their mother is a bit of a matchmaker. She is trying to marry all her sons of so she'll have more daughters." Hermione whispered in my ear. I chuckled.
"I've got to go see Harry. I'll bring him some food." she said carrying a stack of toast in a napkin.
"I'll see you later Hermione." I said. She smiled and left.
A few days later and I could see and from what Hermione told me. Harry and Ron still were not talking. I was walking down the stairs from the library when I nearly ran in to professor Dumbledore himself.
"I'm so sorry Professor Dumbledore. I hope you can forgive me." I said and bowed my head.
"It's fine. No blood no foul." he said. I looked up and saw his light blue eyes twinkling.
"You are miss Defontaine, head girl of Beauxbatons correct?" he asked me. I nodded.
"Yes Monsieur." I replied.
"Madame Maxime was bragging about you. She said you were a year ahead, that you were a half veela and that you were a dragon speaker." he told, walking down the stairs with me. I nodded.
"Yes sir." I replied.
"I would love to see that one day apparently it is a beautiful scene when a dragon speaker sings to a dragon." he told me.
"Only a few have seen me do it. But they all said it was stunning." I told him truthfully.
"You are Miss Granger's half sister?" he bluntly asked me.
"Yes I am. She is a very sweet, loyal and smart girl." I told him. He nodded.
"I agree." he said as we reached the great hall.
"I hope we can speak again soon Miss Defontaine." he said and walked in another direction.
I was about to walk in to the great hall but waited when I saw Harry approaching.
"Hello Harry." I said, smiling. I could tell he was having a horrible time at the moment. He looked up at me shocked. Nobody has been treating him very nicely.
"Hi Jolie. How are you?" he asked me. I shrugged.
"I'm good. You?"
"I've been better." he replied. I looked over to where Harry was looking. I saw a girl begging Cedric to sign her bag. I shook my head.
"not in to that kind of thing?" he asked me. I grinned.
"Not my style to follow a guy around and beg for attention." I told him.
"That's because you don't need to." Harry said as we sat down at the Gryffindor table infront of Ron and Hermione.
"Doesn't need what?"Hermione asked, looking up from her book.
"To follow a guy around and beg for attention." Harry told her.
"That's true. They all follow you around and beg for your attention." Hermione said, smiling.
"Don't be silly." I told them.
"Look all the male population in this room are looking at you." Harry pointed out. I looked around and indeed all were looking at me.
"And look at all the flowers, love letters and chocolates you receive. It's all because they want your attention." Hermione finished. I just shook my head and mad a sandwich.
