"Draco, can I talk to you for a minute?"
I was walking out of the Great Hall when Edgeworth pulled me aside. "Because I am a student, I'll be living in the dormitories" he explained, "But because I am also a teacher, I'll be getting my own room." Edgeworth flipped his pony tail over his shoulder and began running his fingers through it like a nervous teenage girl asking her crush out on a date. "I'm not used to sleeping alone and I was wondering-because I don't really know anyone else in Hogwarts except you and Dumbledore-would you like to share a room with me?" He was looking down at his feet (I guess in embarassment), much unlike what I expected from the cool, collected person I met on the train. It would be wierd sharing a room with another guy, but this guy is also a teacher. A teacher that could take away House points. It couldn't hurt to be on his good side.
"Alright."
Edgeworth looked up from his feet, his eyes now a more beautiful, vibrant shade of purple. "Let's go then!" he exclaimed, running down through the corridors.
"H-Hey! Wait up!" I yelled and chased after him.
We were running through the halls of Hogwarts for a couple of minutes until Edgeworth stopped in the middle of one of the changing staircases. "Why'd we stop?" I asked.
He turned to me and smiled brilliantly. "Because I just realized I have no idea where the Slytherin dormintories are."
Smarter then a Ravenclaw, my arse.
I sighed. "This way, follow me."
-------------------------
"Password, please." The painting asked.
Damn it! I forgot to ask for the password!
"OH! I know this one!" Edgeworth said, then cleared his throat "Plumed Serpent!"
The painting swung open.
I raised an eyebrow. How'd he know?
"Dumbledore told me." he explained.
Inside, the common room was basically empty. It was late and most people were getting ready for bed. Edgeworth walked over to a carving on the wall. It was of two snakes crossing each other in the shape of an 'X'. They were blocky-like drawings. Much like how the ancient Mayas and Aztecs drew and carved on the walls of their buildings.
That's new.
"Take out your wand and press the tip of it to the snake's head." he said gesturing to the snake on the left. I took out my blackthorn wand and did as I was told. The serpent's eyes glistened magically for a moment then faded back to it's original state. Edgeworth then took out his wand and did the same with the serpant on the right and recieved the same response. As a true Malfoy, I immediatly reconized the amazing workmanship on his wand. It didn't even look like wood.
He must of saw me staring at his wand (A/N: -SQUEEEEE- HE WAS STARING AT HIS WAND! no, its the magical one not the other one. -laughs- MAGICAL WAND! LAAAAAAAWL! -headdesk- must...not...get...distracted from story) because he said, "Blackened teak wood from Costa Rica and a hair from the tail of a thestral dipped in blood." I wanted to ask what type of blood, but I left it alone. It's probably for the best. "Now, walk through the way as you did at King's Cross." And so I did, Edgeworth right behind me.
The area where we entered was the living room. Modern, black leather furniture- made up of two large chairs and a small loveseat- surrounded a gorgeous, white, marble fireplace; the loveseat being right in front of the fireplace and the chairs on either side. The floor was covered in white tile. I noticed some purple, mosaic tiles too, but whatever design they made was covered by a large, red throw rug and a small glass coffee table.
"The bedroom is in there." Edgeworth pointed out to the left. There was no door seperating the two rooms, only a white, satin curtain which was almost transparent.
In the bedroom, my attention was immediatly brought to the ceiling.
Glass.
You could see the night sky perfectly. "So the stars can watch over you while you sleep." Edgeworth breathed, clearly marvoling the sight as well. There were two beds, the same size as the other student's and many bookshelves. The bookshelves were lined along the wall, so many that there wasn't a blank space left.
I would never have to go to the library again.
One shelf was covered by a velvet, purple curtain. Edgeworth stopped me before I could uncover it. "Don't touch it." he said cooly. I shrugged it off and walked towards another almost-transparent white curtain. I thought I could make out a bathtub from where I stood. When I walked through it, I discovered I was right.
The tub was as big as the prefects but made completely of white marble like the fireplace. The sink was made of marble, too. But then I noticed that something was missing. "Where's the toilet?" I asked. Edeworth pointed to a stall in the corner of the large bathroom that looked like one of the stalls you would find in a public bathroom in the Muggle world. I opened the stall to find a silver throne. But, that wasn't a throne. . .
"Bloody hell! That's the toilet?!"
Edgeworth chuckled, "Would you like to give it a try?"
I didn't need to be asked twice.
-----------------
At the end of the day, I came to some conclusions.
1. Edgeworth Serpentine was as rich as a god.
2. Edgeworth Serpentine was as handsome as a god.
3. Edgeworth Serpentine could very well be, a god.
4. I'm definately not gay for thinking any of this.
