D/C-you know the drill the only things that I own is the plot and carmilla.
"Hello Diomedes" Carmilla said in a monotone voice.
"Your father will be very pleased that I found you, he figured that your mother would have sent you here. Her being a witch after all and you of course inheriting her filthy wizarding blood." Diomedes said distastefully. The entire great hall was at a stand still, no one dared to move. Everyone was mesmerized by the figure that stood in front of Carmilla. He was at least a foot taller than her with jet black hair and piercing red eyes, his fangs protruded more when his lips curled into a smirk.
"You have two choices, you can either come back peacefully or I take you back kicking and screaming." Diomedes demanded.
"I think I'll take choice number three" Carmilla said stubbornly with a smirk and her eyes gleaming.
"You really are your father's daughter, stubborn just like him"
"In more ways than you will ever know" Carmilla said.
"Then I guess I'll be taking you kicking and screaming" Diomedes said menacingly.
"I'd like to see you try, you know just as well as I do I'm just as strong as you" Carmilla boasted.
"Not if your unconscious, your not" Diomedes said as he grabbed Carmilla by the throat and threw her into the wall behind the slytherin table. Carmilla left quite a few cracks in the wall. But she managed to gather herself and shakily stand up, she wasn't going down without a fight. She discarded her school robes on the floor. She took one swift leap and was back in front of Diomedes. She stared at him dead in the eye and curled her lips into a smirk. She was starting to smirk a lot more, wonder where she could be getting that from.
"Is that the best you have, I thought you were better than that Diomedes."Carmilla taunted. He went to grab her by the throat again but she sidestepped and he missed her. It was her turn to show her strength, she grabbed him by the throat. "Never come here again or I swear I will do worse to you. Tell my father that I will never be like him, tell him to forget he even has a daughter." Carmilla said through gritted teeth and flung him into the exact same wall she had just been thrown into. She threw him with way more force than he did to her, so it wasn't as easy for him to get up from that. He finally got up and staggered forward.
"This isn't over and you know it little Carmilla, your father won't stop until he brings you back. There's nothing anyone here can do to save you, you can't hide here forever this school won't protect you from your ownkind. We will be back for you and your precious little slytherin. Mark my words on that" Diomedes said menacingly. He transformed back into a bat and flew quickly out of the window he came in.
She sent a withering look in Dumbledore's direction, after that things started to get fuzzy. She heard voices but they seemed so distant to her. She soon blacked out and fell to the floor.
When she came to she was lying in a bed in the hospital wing, everything was slowly coming back to her. Facing Diomedes in the great hall in front of the entire student body was not exactly very good. Now all of the other students would be having a field day especially when he made the slytherin comment. Everyone would wonder what was meant by that comment, all of the students in slytherin would be watching each other to see. Now what was she going to do. Life never got any easier for Carmilla. Everytime something good happened, something bad always happened. She realized that she must have been out for quite a while it was pitch black in the room. She decided to just go back to sleep until the morning so that she wouldn't have to face anyone.
Meanwhile in other parts of the castle
"What do you supposed that guy meant by 'you and your slytherin' " Ron asked with a bewildered look on his face.
"Oh Ron who knows, we'll just have to wait until Carmilla regains consciousness to ask her." Hermione snapped. She was getting frustrated Harry and Ron kept on badgering her with questions about the mysterious slytherin. She was ready to tell the both of them to sod off. They were getting rather annoying.
"She's right you know, we're just annoying the pants off of Hermione by asking her questions that she doesn't know the answers to. Whoa never thought those words would come out of my mouth. A question that Hermione couldn't answer call the daily prophet." Harry joked. A scowl appeared on Hermione's face "The both of you can just sod off for all I care" Hermione huffed and stormed up to the girls dormitory. She would have to go and visit Carmilla first thing in the morning before those two gits woke up and beat her to it.
At the exact same time in the Slytherin Common Room
"Can you believe what happened at dinner time?" Blaise said as he slouched in his seat.
"You never know what your going to get at this school, you should know that by now Zabini. Expect the unexpected at Hogwarts." Draco said dully. He didn't feel like having a conversation about what happened in the great hall earlier that night. It made him sick to his stomach every time he thought about it.
"That vampire chick sure has some interesting skeletons in her closet. I'm curious to know what else she's hiding. You know me and some of the other guys have a little bet going. We want to see who can get that chick into bed first." Blaise said.
"Really now Zabini, if your that sex deprived why don't you just bang Parkinson you know she won't turn you down or any man for that matter." Draco said disgustedly.
"Give me a break I'm not that desperate to put the moves on Parkinson, the slytherin slut. I do have standards when it comes to shagging."
"Oh yeah it didn't look like you had standards when I caught you and her in the boys bathroom yesterday" Draco said as a matter a factly.
"Hey she caught me in a weak moment, I was desperate she took advantage of me" Blaise said innocently.
"Whatever it's your story you tell it" Draco said while rolling his eyes.
"Don't get all high and mighty on me Malfoy, don't act like you haven't shagged Parkinson" Blaise said cockily.
"One drunken night last year and I'm going to pay for it for the rest of my life." Draco said raising his arms in defeat.
"Yes unfortunately, no one would have even known if Pansy didn't go and open her big mouth. She should keep it shut unless she's actually putting it to some good use." Blaise said while wiggling his eyebrows.
"You know Zabini you never cease to disgust and amaze me all at the same time. I think I'm going to go for a walk and try to clear some images out of my head." Draco said as he exited the portrait hole. Draco shook his head as he walked the corridors he still couldn't get over Blaise. He laughed to himself silently as he thought of how Blaise thought that him or any other slytherin would persuade Carmilla into bed. She would hex their balls off before they could even get to second base. Speaking of Carmilla he hadn't seen her since the incident in the great hall, once she collapsed Saint Potter and Weasel carried her to the hospital wing. There was no way he could go visit her without raising suspicion unless he snuck in their right now. He knew during regular visiting hours he ran the risk of bumping into Potter or Weasel. So his only option was to sneak in their late at night. He weighed his options what did he have to lose the worst thing that could happen was that he got detention. He snuck down to the hospital wing and crept through the double doors just as he was about to approach her bed. He heard voices coming from the hall, he ducked behind one of the curtains.
"But what are we to do Albus you seen at dinner how she was attacked so easily. Hogwarts is the safest place there is, what can we do if she's not even safe here" McGonagall whispered.
"I honestly don't know I've been in touch with her mother, if indeed her father does know where she is. Let's just say that she is in grave danger and there's nothing anyone can do to protect her Minvera. She may have to leave Hogwarts along with Mr. Malfoy because they know about the prophecy. But until I speak with Alexia she won't have to leave, I hope that she has some idea of what to do. Their is no amount of magic that can protect them." Dumbledore said gravely.
"It's must be so unfair to be stuck in the middle of this all and to only be sixteen. To have to deal with so much and not have a choice in any of it." McGonagall said sadly.
"Unfortunately we do not get to choose our destinys(sp?), but we have to deal with whatever life throws at us. Miss Hannigan has been dealing with everything extremely well. Considering the fact that she's ridiculed for being half vampire and half witch and still she holds her head up with pride. To be faced with so much adversity and still hold your ground. Come now let us go she probably won't be waking up anytime tonight. Madame Pomfrey said that she would be able to leave the hospital wing tomorrow. I'll talk to her tomorrow" Dumbledore said as he made his way through the double doors, leaving the hospital wing in darkened silence.
Draco creeped out from behind the curtain and crept to the edge of Carmilla's bed. 'What have I gotten myself into' Draco thought. He couldn't change his mind now he had already said that he would marry her. It's not like he didn't want to marry her, he just didn't know that things could get so complicated. He brushed a stray piece of hair out of her eyes causing her to flinch. She slowly started to move around and her eyes fluttered open.
"Hey" Draco said softly.
"Hm, hey what are you doing here it's the middle of the night." Carmilla croaked.
"I was bored of hearing about how sex deprived Blaise is, so I needed to take a walk and I ended up here."
"I'm sure after the little scene that happened in the great hall, you have a lot of questions but right now I'm just not up to answering them. I'm sure your going to tell me that you want to back out of marrying me. I totally understand I wouldn't want to get mixed up with the likes of me." Carmilla said glumly.
"What? No, that's not why I came here. I just came here to see how you were doing. I couldn't come and see you after Potter and Weasley carried you out of the great hall. It might look a little odd if I came here to see you so I waited. I didn't come here to back out of the marriage far from it." Draco said as he moved closer to her.
"You do realize that things will never be easy for us" Carmilla stated.
"I know but just because things get tough, doesn't mean I'm going to leave you in the dust." Draco said soothingly.
"We'll see, but for now I just want to get some sleep." Carmilla said as she pulled the covers up.
"Yeah I have to get back to the dungeons" Draco said shakily. He kind of wanted to give her a kiss or even just a hug, but he didn't want to seem to forward. He started to look around nervously. " CanIgiveyouahugorakiss" Dracostuttered out quickly.
"Sure" Carmilla said nervously while blushing. Draco blushed as he leaned closer to her, they both strared at each other. He could feel his heart racing. He was so close he couldn't go back now. He closed his eyes and pressed his lips on hers softly. Her lips tasted so sweet he wrapped his arm around her waist and slowly deepened the kiss. He didn't want to smother her but he didn't feel like stopping. He would stop when she pulled away and by the looks of it she didn't seem like she wanted to pull away. He licked her lips with his tongue begging for entrance, she parted her lips letting him in. Their tongues battled each other until finally they both pulled away from lack of oxygen. They were both panting when they pulled apart.
"I guess I'll see you tomorrow then" Draco said softly as he slowly got up.
"Maybe we can hang out tomorrow after lessons, do our homework together or something." Carmilla suggested.
"Yeah that would be good, I'll meet you outside our room after dinner." Draco replied as he quietly left the room to return to his own common room.
Carmilla fell back on to the bed her mind still reeling. What a kiss, plus to add that it was her first real kiss. She was giggling to herself. She was actually quite content, she laid her head on her pillow and sighed. She fell into a peaceful sleep filled with pleasant dreams for once.
