A/n-Can't remember ifI said this already but don't own Harry Potter or any other characters, hope you all enjoy the next chapter.
A week worth of detentions this was not going to be an easy week, now I have to do all my homework go to detention and then play pet. How did my life get so complicated, and I have to make appearances to Harry and Ron so that they won't get suspicious. All I wanted to do was learn magic I think I was better off if I had just stayed with my mom.
Once lessons were finished everyone went to dinner. Now she had to tell Harry, Ron, and Hermione that she had a week of detention and why she had detention.
"Hey guys" she said as she sat down to eat.
"Hey after dinner do you want to play some chess with me, Harry doesn't want to play he's sick of losing to me" Ron said.
"I'd love to but I have to finish all my homework then I have to go to detention." Carmilla said.
"Geez that has to be a new record I don't think anyone has ever gotten a detention on the second day of school." Ron said.
"Thanks that makes me feel loads better" Carmilla said sarcastically.
"Sorry who do you have detention with?" Harry asked.
"Snape" Carmilla grumbled.
"Well that explains it, he lives to give students detentions for absolutely any reason at all every day of the week." Harry said.
"Yeah well I have a week of detentions with him" Carmilla said
"What'd you do to get a weeks worth of detentions" Ron asked.
"Remember that potion we made yesterday, well he didn't give me and Malfoy any blood so I just used my own. He told me and Malfoy earlier in class that he didn't give any of us actual vampire blood so the potion wouldn't come out totally right. Well mine did because I actually used the blood. So he got mad at me and Malfoy and gave us both a weeks worth of detention and took ten points from each of our houses'." Carmilla said.
"Well that just makes the detention even more worse, you have to see Malfoy every night this weekas wellas Snape" Ron said.
"I know tell me about it I have no luck with anything, I better get going and do my homework so that I don't have to worry about doing it when I get out of detention. Lord only knows what Snape will have me do for punishment." Carmilla said.
"Knowing him something tedious" Harry said.
"Yeah probably, see you guys later if not than see you guys tomorrow" Carmilla said as she made her way out of the Great Hall.
She went back to her common room and proceeded to do her homework, when she was interrupted by an owl pecking at the window of the common room.
'Wonder who sent me an owl?' she wondered. When she opened it up her curiousity was answered when she recognized her mother's handwriting.
Carmilla,
I have just recently found out from one of my sources that your father is looking for you, and if I know him he won't give up until he finds you. I have already informed the headmaster of this and says that it is in the best interest of all parties involved if you didn't leave the castle under any circumstances unless your accompanied by a teacher. Once your father figures out where you are he won't stop at nothing to get you, so for once in your life please listen to me and do as your told. I don't want anything bad to happen to you.
Love,
Your mother
Great now on top of everything else I have to worry about with school, I have to worry about my father. This just isn't fair why can't I have a normal academic life. In the midst of her little crisis she managed to finish all her homework with a little bit of time to spare. She just sat and relaxed for a few minutes before she had to start making her way to the dungeons. She thought about everything that had gone on in the last two days, the whole detention and being a pet cat thing. She thought she could just blow off Draco but unfortunately he kept on looking around for her.
She gathered all her school things and put them in her bag and ran to her room to put her bag down. Then she left the common room and headed toward the dungeons for her detention. With every step she took a big knot formed in her stomach. By the time she made it to Snape's classroom her stomach was nothing but knots. When she got to the classroom Draco was already there but there was no sign of Snape. She just took her seat and mentally prepared herself for whatever Snape had in store for them.
She sat down in her seat, once she did that Snape walked into the room. "Today for your detention your to clean this room from top to bottom without using magic" Carmilla and Draco's eyes got wide they would be here all night cleaning if they couldn't use magic. Now Carmilla was really glad that she finished all her homework earlier.
"I have a meeting to go to all the cleaning supplies are in the cabinet over there and don't try anything cute because there's a charm on the room that if it senses magic being used it will notify me immediately. Now if I were you I would get to work you have quite a bit of cleaning to do" Snape sneered.
"This is crap how in the hell do I get myself into these things" Carmilla mumbled as she grabbed a bottle of window washer and a rag from the cabinet.
"Well you could look on the bright side it could be worse" Draco said.
"How could it get any worse?" Carmilla asked.
"We could've had to clean the tropy room by hand" Draco said with a smile.
"What's so bad about the tropy room?"
"Have you ever seen it after Peeves has done some damage, that is the worst place to have to clean without magic" Draco said.
"Then I guess this isn't so bad at least I have someone to talk to" Carmilla said.
The rest of the detention was spent quietly cleaning the classroom once they were done it was spotless you could practically eat off the floor.
"Can we just leave once we're done?" Carmilla asked.
"No we have to wait for Snape to come and dismiss us" Draco said.
"Oh how long do you think we'll have to wait for him"
"I don't know but I wish he would hurry up, I still have to look for my cat" Draco said.
At the sound of the cat Carmilla felt a pang of guilt in the pit of her stomach. She felt bad for Draco he said some pretty private things about himself to her. Maybe she should tell him but then again if she told him she'd be revealing her secret to him and she didn't know if she could trust him with that. If he let it slip that she could change into an animal she would be in a lot of trouble not just at school but with her mom. But by the look on Draco's face she couldn't lead him on like that.
"You really like that cat huh?" Carmilla asked.
"You could say that, why do you ask"
"Umm I really need to tell you something but I don't know how you'll take it. It's about your cat." Carmilla said.
"Do you know where my cat is?" Draco asked
"Sort of she's standing right here" Carmilla said.
"What are you talking about there's no cat here, it's just me and you"
"Well I technically can't show you right now because that would be using magic and we would get in trouble" Carmilla said.
"You mean to tell me that your the cat"
"Yeah I'm an animagus but you can't tell anyone, no one knows that I'm one. If you say anything you'll get me into a shit load of trouble." Carmilla said.
"The night that you found me I was just out taking a walk, I changed so that in case I was out past curfew I wouldn't get in trouble. I kind of got more than I bargained for that night" Carmilla said nervously.
"I'm sure you did, I'm sure you and your little Gryffindor buddies had a good laugh at my expense" Draco said coldly.
"What you talking about are you that thick or did you not hear me, no one knows I'm an animagus so how would I tell anyone anything without exposing myself. Oh yes I just ran to tell all my friends, by the way want to hear all of Draco's secrets that I heard while I was in animal form. I'm sure that would go over extremely well." Carmilla said vehemently.
"So now you know my secrets,but now I know yours so we're even" Draco said slyly.
"Secrets if you call having a mean father a big secret then fine, or having a crush on a girl. You have no idea what secrets really are" Carmilla said.
"Then why don't you tell me, remember how I said you would tell me some things someday well that day is today. What do you have against purebloods and how do you know so much about us?" Draco asked.
"Are you kidding me that's private"
"You heard things that were private about me so why can't you tell me" Draco replied.
Carmilla thought back to the night where Draco told her when she was in her animal form of the horrors he had witnessed. The sounds of him in his sleep filled her head.
"Fine but I don't want to explain it here meet me in the library tomorrow right after lessons and way before detention. I'll explain everything about me and my past." Carmilla said quietly.
"Tomorrow in the library it is then" Draco replied.
With that last comment Snape appeared in the classroom and dismissed them from detention. They left the room going there seperate ways back to their dormitories.
