Year Four
Will You Shut Up or Should I Make You
Stephan and I were cuddling rather close on the floor in front of the table. I was doing my essay that Professor Snape gave me, Stephan however had found that kissing my neck was the most enjoyable experience he ever had. I must admit it was cute and made me blush quite a lot. But I was busy didn't he understand that. It is not like I could concentrate much though with Padma going on and on about how terrible her night at the Yule Ball was. It was over a month a go and she still hadn't shut up about it.
"I mean, they didn't even ask us to dance," she groaned. I think everyone in the room had heard the story a million times. But it didn't stop one of the girls saying.
"Oh you poor thing." which Padma drunk in.
"I know and to think that we let them take us, they should feel lucky," she said so high and mighty it made my skin crawl. I had finally had enough.
"Will you shut up, or should I make you?" I asked her, which made all the girls around her gasp and look at me. Stephan stopped his kissing and Padma turned around to me her eyes icy.
"What?" she asked in a sneer that sounded evil.
"They were not lucky to take you, you were lucky to actually get a date so don't sit there all high and mighty and say that you did them a favour. We all saw you so desperate and willing to take a hat stand to the ball so you didn't show up alone," I said angrily grabbing my stuff and standing up taking Stephan's hand. I started walking out of the room when she finally thought of something to say.
"You little mole," she said her tone was icy I could feel Stephan's hand tense mine and I turned around.
"Is that the best you got?" I asked with a smile.
"You belong in Hufflepuff with all the rejects. That's why you are unnoticed in this house, it is why you feel the need to put me down because you know you are just trash compared to the rest of us," she said angrily. Stephan stepped forward and I quickly pulled him back.
"She is just trying to look cool," I said to him as we left the common room. I put on a face that said I was fine and repeatedly told him I was but truth was I was thinking about what Padma said. I had gotten way to comfortable and forgotten how much I didn't belong in Ravenclaw.
