Chapter 3 (Lemon drops, my parents and Snape)

The day passes by pretty quickly. Nothing really special happened. I was bitten by a plant twice but that is the usual. I was sitting in the corning and still the plants found a way to atack me. I had my usual trip to Madame Pomfrey who healed the wounds and went back to the lessons. I annoyed Snapey up until the point that he was ready to hex the hell out of me but for some reason he didn't give me detention. Weird bipolar man.

I was walking with Sammi to the Black Lake to hang out but I was stopped by someone calling me Mudblood. I stopped but Sammi continued on. She is sometimes a bit of a pussy and a very unsuportive friend. I turn around and see my favourite blonde Slytherin Cough Cough.

'What Malfoy?' I ask him annoyed. ' I really don't have time for you now.'

'Dumbledore askekd me to fetch you.'

'Oh. Why?''

'How am I supposed to know?'

'He asked you.'

'He didn't tell me just come.'

'Fine' I huff and follow him through the halls. I've never been to Dumbledore and have no clue where his office is. He finally stops in front of a statue

'Here we are.' He mutters.

'Thanks?' I more or less ask him.

'Professor Dumbledore likes lemon drops. ' He says and then walks away. Crazy guy.

I turn towards the statue.

'Password?' It asks me.

'Oh no, I don't know. I have a appointment with Dumbledore.'

'Password?'

'I don't know.'

'Password?'

'are you stupid I told y..'

'Lemon drops.' I hear a voice say behind me. Malfoy again.

'Shut up with your lemon drops. You're obsessed!' I screeched at him.

He just pointed to the statue who was...moving? Oooh lemon drops was the password. That makes sense, I guess.

'Thanks again?' I said to him unsure.

'I knew you wouldn't understand my hint. You're not in Ravenclaw for a reason.'

'He! I'm not stupid. I would 've gotten inside.'

'No you wouldn't.'

'Yes, I wo..' I couldn't finish my sentence because someone spoke.

'Ah, miss Wall. Nice for you to join me. Thank you mister Malfoy.'

Malfoy nodded and walked away. Dumbledore gestured inside is office.

'Come on in, miss Wall.'

'You can call me Tatum, professor. Miss Wall sounds weird, like you're talking to a wall.'

'Alright, Tatum. I guess your right but then it would be a female wall.' Dumbledore said with his weird twinkle in his eyes. He's awesome!

I walked inside and saw Snape sitting in one of the chairs. Why would he be here? What did I do wrong? Snape looked at me with his usual sneer but something seemed off. He seemed upset or confused. He is so weird sometimes.

'Please sit down Tatum.'

'Where is this about, professor?'

'I was just going to tell you but you have to promise me one thing.'

'What?'

'Just listen to me and don't interupt me.'

'Okay.' I did have an habit of interupting people when they were talking.

'Sadly, I have to inform you that your adoptive parents died this morning in a fire.'

'What?! But how, when, why. Oh god.' I say while putting my head in my hands but not completely realising everything just yet, I was shocked. 'Where can I go, I have no one anymore.'

''Luckily for you we have found someone who can take care of you until your of age.'

'Who?'

'Professor Snape.'
