A/N
So, I've decided that these are going to be pretty short chapters(as you can see). This means that I'll be able to update as soon as I have another little piece done, and also is more realistic(I think). Parvati in this story is going to be kind of...different from the person you read about in the books. I guess this is sort of AU-ish. Anyways, on with the story!
Chapter 2: Breakfast?
I wake up sweaty and disgusting from my bloody nightmare. My sheets are tangled around my legs, and the chalky taste in my mouth? Apparently I took a huge bite out of my Herbology essay. At least now I have an excuse to skip breakfast.
I disentangle myself, gather up my clothes, and head off to the bathroom before someone else wakes up and hogs it.
Turning the rusty knobs, I wait till the water temperature is just right. Sometimes I think the best part about Hogwarts is the fact that the bath water is always hot.
I scrub half-heartedly at my hair, trying to concentrate on the smell of raspberry shampoo, but I can't forget that dream. That horrible image.
As I dress, I can't hear the other girls moving about, so I take my sweet time carefully brushing out my hair and charming the sopping curls dry before I twist it into its customary braid.
I survey my face in the mirror. Dull brown eyes, too-chubby cheeks, and bushman brows. At least I don't have acne, though my pores are unflatteringly large.
Seeing as I have some extra time, I carefully line my upper eyelids with soft black kohl, and swipe on some clear gloss. At least now I'm nearly presentable.
Padding back out into the dorm, I slip on my shoes, pause to gather up my bag and the remains of my essay, and then make my way to the library.
