Cilwenu's wand sender is also a member of the Slytherin house.
Here is chapter eight. Holy crap. Also, I realized I brought Luna into the story at least a year earlier than when she appears in the books/movies. It completely slipped my mind, I hope it doesn't really bother you guys, since this does not (as stated many times) go with the books.
I do not own Harry Potter, because my name is not J.K. Rowling.
Chapter Eight:
"What are you doing here with them!" Draco yelled, ignoring Hermione, who was hushed then by Luna. "You lied to me!"
"Draco… you're hurting me…" Cilwenu whimpered, her muscles throbbing and fingers growing numb.
"Pansy was right… I wasn't going to fully believe her, but you just proved it, didn't you?"
"Pl-please, Draco… please…." she begged. "Please d-don't be mad at me… please."
He jerked her straight up, seeing her knees give in to gravity. Cilwenu cried out, her chest heaving up and down out of fright. She'd never seen such anger in her boyfriend than she was now.
"It's a little too late for that, Snape." He hissed.
Cilwenu's head was spinning. She could barely see to run out of the library, and stumbled on the floor. Her wand rolled out in front of her, and she reached for it. In her fingers, it pulsed, as if speaking her name clear as any normal voice would.
She shouldn't have run from Draco. She felt so stupid.
"He'll never accept it."
The few days after that, Cilwenu regularly saw Draco staring at her from across the Great Hall, and even in the classrooms. He walked by her ever so slowly now, making sure the two made eye contact. He wouldn't talk… but he wouldn't look away either.
Cilwenu was almost never alone anymore. She had Althea fastened to her hip, keeping her chin up through even the hardest moments. It still hurt her.
Pansy didn't spend her time with Draco anymore.
It was a relief, but not so much as it could have been. Cilwenu wanted to know just why Pansy wasn't talking to him. She wanted to know but she wouldn't dare ask herself.
It'd been almost two months since she and Draco broke up.
"He looks at you like you're a piece of meat, Wenny." Althea whispered.
Cilwenu looked up, only to see his grey eyes on her. He didn't eat a single thing, and Cilwenu hadn't either. How could she… when she felt the weight of the world on her shoulders.
I'm fourteen… I don't even know what love is… and yet… I'm acting like it's the end of the world.
"How can he go from not even acknowledging you to just… staring at you?"
By now, sitting in the Gryffindor House table had been a regularly broken rule for Cilwenu. The professors learnt to not particularly care, Severus knew how the other Slytherin acted to her.
They guess there was really not preventing her from sitting with her friends.
Cilwenu wouldn't tell her friends what happened in the library.
"I don't know. I don't really care."
Ron patted Cilwenu on the back, his mouth stuffed with a turkey leg. Cilwenu giggled at him, masking the pain that tried to flood over her face.
"You are going to be as big as a house, Ronald." said Hermione, an open book in front of her.
Ron said something indescribable back to her, shoving a spoon of potatoes into his mouth as well.
"Cilwenu, you haven't touched a thing."
She looked down at her empty plate. "I'm… not hungry."
"U-uh, Cilwenu, you have company…" Neville stammered, nearly choking on his food at the sight of two, rather large Slytherin students heading to their table.
Cilwenu looked behind of her, Crabbe and Goyle were walking side-by-side, whispering something under their breaths. They stopped feet away from her, and Cilwenu rose one brow over the other.
"Can I help you?" Cilwenu bit.
Goyle stepped forwards, "Draco would like to talk to you."
Everyone in Cilwenu's group of friends looked at her, and she swallowed a lump that started to form in her throat.
She shook her head, "What about?"
"Bloody 'ell, just go talk to 'em." Crabbe demanded, being pushed aside by Goyle immediately after.
Goyle cleared his throat, "He told us to ask you to please come talk to him… he said you would know what about."
"He knows I don't want to talk to him."
"Just come with us!"
Cilwenu yelped when Goyle grabbed her arm and pulled her out of the seat forcefully. Harry, Ron and Hermione stood simultaneously, fetching out their wands. Harry leaned over his side of the table, "Let her go."
Cilwenu punched at Goyle, knocking him right square in the chin at first strike. Goyle didn't let go, but tightened his hand around her out of pain, or spite. Cilwenu cried out more, and this time, kicked him in the shin.
Crabbe grabbed Cilwenu's hair.
"Stupefy!" another voice called.
A very out of breath Draco stood, his wand outstretched. Both Crabbe and Goyle fell to the floor, rubbing their heads and groaning.
Cilwenu looked up at Draco, biting the inside of her lip. She wanted to thank him, she wanted to hold him close to her, and that made her also want to punch him in the stomach. How dare he send his cronies to her like that…
"Step away Malfoy." warned Neville, a surprise to everyone else around them.
Not a student wasn't looking in the groups' direction, and Severus himself made his way down from the front of the hall with Professor McGonagall. Severus stared mainly at Draco, then occasionally down to his daughter, who turned her head away, scowling.
Draco turned to walk away, only to be snatched by the back of his cloak.
"You're not going anywhere."
"What is this with Draco Malfoy?" Severus asked Cilwenu, standing over her as she sat in his classroom with her head bowed, and hands in her lap.
Draco sat next to her, a little too close for comfort. Neither of them talked.
Severus brought his hand down on the table, "Do either of you have anything to say?"
Cilwenu flinched, "Father…"
"Cilwenu. I really am tired… of all this… nonsense." he began, "Your mother was the same…"
She looked up this time. She hadn't heard Severus talk about her mother since she was very little. The mere thought of knowing who she was made Cilwenu's heart thud, and her wand started warming her hip.
"Mother…?"
He avoided the subject, "Draco Malfoy. Are you aware that your friends told Professor McGonagall and I that you are responsible for their actions?"
Draco scoffed. "I didn't tell them to put their hands on Snape."
It stung, hearing her last name on his tongue again. Cilwenu shuddered.
"Anymore of this, and I will have to exclude the both of you… from your privileges. Such as, Hogsmeade… and the Yule Ball."
"It wouldn't be out of the normal for me, would it?"
Severus and Draco both looked at Cilwenu.
She pushed her chair back, "It surprises me that you haven't forced me into other classes because of who I associate with. It surprises me that you actually allow me to be with my friends. I know you hate them."
She looked at Draco, "And you already know how I feel. The both of you… you can't tell me what to do. I can be with who I want, and I can do what I want."
"Cilwenu, you will not talk to me that way."
"I will talk however I want! Give me detentions, expel me, I do not care anymore."
Her wand was burning her hip now. Cilwenu felt it heighten the angrier she became. Out, she pulled her wand, and held it towards the floor. Severus' eyes went wide, and he looked down directly at it.
"How did you get that?"
Note: cliffhanger. Even though it wont be long until the next update.
