Cilwenu has a new wand :D Who ever was the sender? I'll give you a hint. They're blonde.
I do not own Harry Potter, because my name is not J.K. Rowling… D:
Chapter Seven:
"A wand?" Althea inquired, picking the object from Cilwenu's hands.
She jerked when it, for some reason, burnt her, and quickly shoved it back into Cilwenu's chest, "Wenny!"
"What?" Cilwenu blinked, looking up at her friend.
"Your stupid freak wand burnt my hand!"
"It… did?"
Harry picked it next. His eyes squinted slightly, before he handed it back to the Snape girl. With his free hand, he adjusted his glasses, "It's charmed. Anyone other than the owner to touch your wand gets burned."
"That can be done?" Cilwenu glanced over her wand numerous times. She held it in the air, and Althea ducked behind Harry. Harry chuckled.
Hermione came up behind Cilwenu, peeping over her shoulder, "I heard about your wand, Cilwenu."
Althea whimpered, "It burnt me."
"And me too."
"Really?" Hermione was as intrigued as Cilwenu, if not more. "Who could have sent you a wand, knowing it was going to call to you?"
Now they all got silent.
Cilwenu shoved the wand against her waist, in between her skirt and leggings. She had no time to worry about her new wand. She still had one other thing on her mind.
"I want to go to the library. Hermione, Althea, come with me?"
The library was almost completely empty when the three girls walked in, minus a couple of seventh years, who spent most of their times dilly dallying in their free periods.
They looked up at the group, then back down, saying not a word to them.
Althea caught up with Cilwenu, in order to walk by her side, and bobbed her head up and down to a tune she had found stuck in her head.
"Why did you want to come to the library?"
Because I didn't want to see Draco's face at lunch. "Just wanted some quiet. If you guys are hungry, you should go back to the Great Hall. I'll be fine."
Hermione shook her head, "I won't leave you here alone."
"I'm not even hungry."
Althea beamed, when a sound ripped through her torso, loud enough for Cilwenu and Hermione to hear. They looked at the blonde girl, cocking their heads to the side.
"Please, guys, I shouldn't have asked for you to come. You need to eat."
"So do you." Hermione noted.
Cilwenu shrugged her shoulders. She smiled, "I can afford to miss one meal."
"if you need us to stay-"
She held up her hand at the two, shaking her head, "Bloody hell, you two, please go eat."
Cilwenu watched the retreating backs of her friends. She slipped her way through the library as if in a maze, and stared up at the large sign that read 'RESTRICTED'.
Her father had told her all about this particular section at least a year before her first at Hogwarts. He told her many things… and so had Draco.
Stop it, Cilwenu.
She reached for her new wand. "Lumos."
It was shadowy in the Restricted aisle, and, quietly, Cilwenu took her first step down it. Every little word of her father's seeped into her brain.
Curiosity is going to kill this cat anyways.
"We will certainly get caught in here." Cilwenu heard a rather familiar voice whisper.
Another one was a little louder, but even more so familiar.
Behind her bosom, Cilwenu's heart thudded so hard, that she could hear it echo in her ears. She whispered Nox to her wand, and the light diffused.
It was just her luck, however, that the two voices discovered her in the next aisle.
Her eyes were wide, seeing the platinum blonde hair as clear as day, even in the shadows.
There he was.
"Draco?" the other voice was so obviously female, and behind the boy, she appeared, eyes adjusting to the little orb of light cast by Draco's wand.
Cilwenu didn't even look over to know it was none other than Pansy herself.
There, they stared at one another, Draco's jaw tightening and the vein in his neck visible, even in such a tiny illumination. Cilwenu didn't feel her tears fall down her cheeks, but there they were too, slipping from her lashes, then further to her chin and beneath. She hadn't remembered to breathe this whole time, and she wasn't sure if she was even standing up/
Draco lifted his fingers slightly, and went to greet Cilwenu. She instantly backed away, subconsciously shaking her head.
Pansy said nothing at all. She didn't even look the slightest bit amused.
"Cilwen-"
"Don't call me that." Cilwenu flinched at the sound of her own voice.
Draco swallowed. "Look…"
"No, you leave me alone."
"Cilwenu, I didn't-"
"I said don't call me that!" She had out her wand again. In Draco's direction, it was pointed, and he cleared his throat.
Pansy stepped back.
"You… you…" she felt the sobs work their way into her throat. Soon, she would break down, if she did not leave that library.
"How can you stand there in front of me and try to talk! How can you pretend like I don't exist in the halls anymore.. How dare you!" She screamed.
Draco merely stood there, staring at her.
Cilwenu swept her arm, pulling a line of books from their shelves and onto the floor. Her wand surged in through her veins, churning her blood and making it boil. She was more angry than she was upset.
"All because I didn't want to be restricted." She clenched her teeth, "Don't you think I had enough of that even without you?"
"…"
"You won't answer me, because you know it's true!" More books cascaded to the floor, "I can pick my own friends! If you cannot accept my friends, then I have wasted my time with you!"
His eyes widened only slightly. Pansy tossed her head back and forth from him to Cilwenu, who fumed with anger. So much pent-up anger, all towards her once boyfriend.
Draco remained silent.
Cilwenu lowered her wand, feeling the burning of her tears threatening to spill even more. She gave Pansy a glance, "Take him."
Pansy looked down.
Draco went to speak, but Cilwenu turned away from him right before. She left the Restricted section.
Her heart was pounding even harder, and she struggled to walk out of the library.
Note: Bleh, I don't know how well I like this chapter. Please tell me what you think. When do you guys think Cilwenu and Draco should get back together, if they even do?
I'm struggling with this story D:
