OOC: New chapter! New chapter!

I have been having problems with this chapter because of the plot line and stuff, but I finally decided what to do with this chapter. Thank Merlin!

Anyway there is going to be some real drama.

It is going to be drama llama time in Hogwarts!

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Read on spirits. Read on.


Today was the day. Today was the day that would change her life forever. Her first date with someone and he just happened to be the smartest Ravenclaw at Hogwarts.

Emily remembered her cousin's response to when she had told her that she had been asked out by James Dean.

"James Dean? THE James Dean?! You can't possibly be serious, Em! He really asked you out?"

Looking down sheepishly all she could do was nod her head.

"You have to go out with him, Em! Do you know how many girls would die just to be in your position? Many would love to be asked out by him. If I didn't like Ron so much, I would want to be with him too."

A loud giggle slipped past her lips at her words. She couldn't believe that her cousin would even say that. That was Hermione for you, always strange yet blunt.

"Okay Hermione, but promise me that you won't go after him okay?"

She asked jokingly, knowing that her cousin wouldn't do anything like that to her. Quickly she gave her a hug before running off to write about her future first day in her journal.

Now was the day that the students third year and up could leave Hogwarts to head over to Hogsmeade to relax and shop and secretly go on dates.

Looking outside, she saw snow falling down from the sky in blankets which prompted her to dress warmly. Donning a royal blue fleece coat over a blue baby doll top and tight jeans. Also she let down her hair, not as afraid that her white streaks were showing more.

"Now I'm ready!"

She whispered before walking out of her room and heading outside. It took about twenty minutes to walk all the way down to the courtyard where the other students were meeting, but she eventually got there.

James Dean was already with his friends, but she was surprised that when he saw her that he immediatly rushed over to her.

"Hi, Emily! I was wondering where you were. Merlin! You look great!"

Her cheeks grew a bright red at this for she was not used to such comments.

"Thanks."

He gently reached out to grab her hand and pull her towards him. Feeling that she was cold, he wrapped his arms around her in a side hug.

"I think we can leave now, so let me show you around Hogsmeade."

James whispered as he began to walk with her by his side down the path to Hogsmeade. The path was free of snow which created a more beautiful picture as they continued to walk until they reached the entrance of Hogsmeade.

"What do you want to do first? Do you need to buy anything before I show you around?"

"Um...I need to buy more quills before we do anything. Is there a shop that sells that type of stuff here?"

He nodded his head before he began to lead her to where she wanted. After a couple of minutes of walking they stopped in front of a shop that read, Scrivenshaft's Quill Shop.

Emily quickly ran in and bought her quills and came back out. Giving James a hug, she smiled up at him.

"I think now we can start this date."

James whispered before reaching down to kiss the top of her head kindly.

"Let's go get something warm to eat and maybe we can get to know each other...better."

He said before he lead her away once more. Unfortunately neither them knew that someone, a very angry someone, was watching them and was slowly planning for when their plan would be enforced.


Lucius Malfoy had woken up to the overpowering scent of the girl and had immediately located her walking throughout the village. The scent of another male with her made him instantly furious.

How dare she be out anywhere with a male that was not him?!

Throughout the day, he had followed her and this male around waiting for the opportune moment to surprise them both. It wasn't until the male showed her where the Shrieking Shack was that he found his moment.

"You will know never to anger me again. Ever."

He whispered before apparating away; her delicious scent wafting through him.


The snow crunched underneath their feet as they walked on the outskirts of Hogsmeade towards what James had called, "The Shrieking Shack". Apparently it was considered to be the most haunted building in Great Britain, but she didn't think that it was haunted at all.

When they couldn't go any further because of the wire fencing outside of the Shrieking Shack, they both sat down on a tree trunk to rest.

The air felt extremely heavy as they sat there in silence. It wasn't until James turned to look at her that she felt her breath catch in her throat.

"Emily, I know that we haven't known each other for very long but I feel very attracted to you. Actually since you were first sorted during the sorting ceremony I have felt drawn to you. Do you feel that way about me?"

Her eyes widened tremendously for she had not known that anybody could like her as much as he had described. She tried to speak but nothing would come out. All she could do was nod.

A smile appeared on his face as he leaned forward to brush a strand of her hair and placed it behind her ear. Slowly he lifted her chin up to look into her eyes before lowering his lips down on hers. Her first kiss and with someone that she really liked.

The moment was magical and almost surreal because she couldn't believe that this was really truthfully happening to her. It wasn't until he pulled away that she could understand the situation fully.

"Was it really that surprising?"

James asked as he brought her closer to him when he saw her shiver.

"Yeah, but I didn't think anyone could like me as much as you do."

"Yes you did, Miss. Granger. Didn't you get my note? Didn't you know that I desired you even more than this little boy?"

A mysterious voice whispered from behind them. The voice sounded famliar but she could sense the danger coming from it.

"James, I think we should get out of here."

Before he had a chance to respond, she saw him getting thrown back against the wire fence and black out by a dark figure. When the figure turned around, she saw who it was.

A scream escaped her lips and then there was nothing but darkness.


OOC: Okay so there is a semi cliffhanger here.

MWAHAHAHAHA!

Lucius Malfoy is pissed!!

I am still trying to decide if James Dean should be a romantic figure in Emily's life or not. If anyone wants me to keep him in here, please post a review or message me saying so.

This was so much fun to write, but I am still getting very minimal feedback for this story which makes me want to shed emo tears.


So if ya'll could leave me some reviews telling me how I am doing or what I need to improve on, then I would be so happy.
