Chapter 36: Rhea Vs. Priya.
This was what happened when Ash and James left to go to the Owlery, it started when Rhea noticed that the common room was empty, and she was starting to get a little bored, she checked the girls' dorms but everyone had gone somewhere, so she decided to go up to the boys' dorms to see if anyone (meaning Sid) was there. She started walking up the stairs quietly and she heard a laugh, which wasn't Sid's laugh, it was familiar and she had heard it before, so she got closed and closer and when she reached the door, she heard 2 people speaking, one was a boy, the other was a girl… They were talking and laughing and then with one push of the door, Rhea knew who they were.
'Sid?' Rhea said
'Rhea!' Sid looked at Rhea
'OH…' Priya moved away from Sid who was sitting on the bed
'What is SHE doing here?' Rhea asked
'SHE has a name Rhea, you should get some more manners!' Sid's voice got louder
'Oh yeah, her name is Stupid, sorry Stupid!' Rhea looked at Priya
'Her name is Priya, not Stupid!' Shouted Sid
'Yeah that's right Rhea!' Priya walked closer to Rhea
'GET AWAY FROM ME YOU IDIOT!' Screamed Rhea
'STOP SHOUTING RHEA' Sid Shouted
'YOU STOP SHOUTING SIDDHARTH RAICHAND!' Rhea shouted back
'You aren't supposed to shout at your boyfriend Rhea!' Priya smirked
'What are you smirking at?' Rhea's eyes turned green
'Smirking at your stupidity that's what' Priya smiled
'BOTH OF YOU STOP IT!' Sid shouted as his eyes turned a dark red colour
'Sid…' Rhea got closer to Sid as she noticed his eyes turned red
'Stay away from me Rhea…' Sid sighed
'Don't worry, I'm here…' Priya put her hand on Sid's shoulder
'You stay away from me too, I'm tired of both of you' Sid moved her hand off his shoulder and left the room in anger, closing the door behind him
'See what you've now done' Priya said
'No, see what you've done' Rhea looked at Priya
'Its all your fault, you shouldn't have said those things to me!' Smirked Priya
'He cares more about me than you, its you that shouldn't have said those things you idiot!' Shouted Rhea
'Don't you dare shout at me Rhea' Screamed Priya
'Watch me' Smirked Rhea
'EXPELLIARMUS!' Priya screamed
Rhea luckily dodged the spell before casting stupefy on Priya, Priya was hit and fell on the floor as it was a strong stupefy spell.
'I'm much more stronger than you, don't try fighting me' Smiled Rhea looking down at Priya
'Locomotor Mortis!' Rhea said before Priya could stand up
Priya was now stuck to the ground as more and more plants gathered around her feet and she was stuck there.
'Don't try messing with my boyfriend or you'll be facing death!' Rhea smirked
'Try me' Smiled Priya
'Petrificus Totalus!' Whispered Rhea and in moments Priya was frozen
As time went on Priya was still on the floor and Rhea went down waiting for James and Ash to return, it became time and Ash and James entered the common room, both wet from the heavy rain from outside.
'Rhea!' Ash said as she entered the room and saw her
'Oh hey Ash, hey James!' Rhea smiled
'How are you?' Ash asked
'I'm… Fine, how are you?' Rhea replied
'I'm good, just a little chilly' Smiled Ash
'Where's Sid?' Asked James
'I don't know… We had another argument involving Priya' Sighed Rhea
'What happened?' Ash asked as she took her coat off
'Well, me and Priya just started fighting and then something happened to Sid and his eyes turned red and everything and it was really scary and then he got angry, I didn't know if it was at me or Priya and he left the room, and then-' Rhea stopped
'And then what?' James asked
'Promise to keep a secret?' Rhea whispered
'Promise' James and Ash whispered back
'I… I casted petrificus totalus on Priya' Whispered Rhea
'WHAT? Where is she now?' Asked Ash
'She's in the boys dorms…' Sighed Rhea
'We need to get up there before she gets away!' James said
Rhea nodded and then the three of them went up to the boys' dorms and then saw Priya with her wand out.
'Oh so you're back?' Priya smirked
'I am, problem?' Nodded Rhea
'Oh and you've brought your 'army' with you too' Joked Priya
'Oh shut up Priya, just get out of here!' Grinned James
'Oh Potter, always sticking up for the wrong people aren't you?' Smiled Priya
'I have a better choice than you' James looked angry
'Just like your father you are, mad, an idiot, always looking for trouble, making friends with the wrong people' Priya laughed
'Wait… How do you know my dad?' Sighed James
'No more questions Potter, time to die!' Priya held her wand at James
'Don't you dare!' Ash came in front of James
'Oh… Now your little wittle girlfriend is in the way, aw bless' Smirked Priya
'I'm not his girlfriend' Ash took out her wand
'Priya, we don't need anymore trouble, just get the hell out of here' Rhea shouted
'Be quite Rhea, don't want to be waking up your Sid!' Smirked Priya
'Sid?' Rhea was confused
'Yes Rhea, you heard me right SID!' Priya moved to the side of the bed, revealing Sid laying on the bed with his eyes tightly shut, his face had scars and blood as well as his arms
'What have you done to him?' Shouted James
'Nothing at all Potter. NOTHING' Whispered Priya
'JUST TELL US WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO HIM!' Rhea cried
'I haven't done anything to him Rhea, but someone else has' Priya smirked
And with that there was a wind and then a black cloud and Priya disappeared... With Priya gone, Rhea ran up to Sid and knelt down beside his bed and then started crying at the state he was in, blood was dripping down his face as well as scars, tears fell out of Rhea's eyes as she put her head down on the side of the bed…
'Rhea… Don't worry he'll be fine, we just have to get him to the hospital wing… I'll go and get someone' Sighed James
James left the room and a few minutes later he came back with Professor McGonagall who was very unhappy about Sid's state, she immediately got him into the hospital wing and Rhea stayed with him, she stayed there night and day, he was getting better but wasn't waking up, with Sid being in hospital, James didn't even open his letter… Until about a week later, Sid started moving in his bed…
'Sid?' Rhea whispered as she held onto his hand
Sid started moving more and his eyes started opening slowly and slowly…
'Sid!' Rhea said as his eyes fully opened
'Rhea…' Sid started squinting and rubbed his eyes
'Are you okay?' Asked Rhea wiping her tears
'Yeah… Better now, you?' Sid smiled gently
'Yeah… Me too' Rhea held on tightly to Sid's hand
'I'm sorry about the other day…' Sighed Sid
'No… I'm sorry, I'm the reason you're in this state, but I'm glad your alive' Smiled Rhea as tears came out from her eyes
'What happened to me though?' Sid looked confused
'You don't know what happened to you?' Rhea frowned
'No… All I remember is me leaving the room and then I went to the great hall for dinner, after that I came back and then I remember being stopped in front of the dungeons… I don't know who by though' Sid rubbed his head
'Oh… Well… I don't know what happened either, I found you… You were on your bed' Frowned Rhea
'How strange!' Sid smirked
'Are you sure you can't remember anything else' Asked Rhea
'Positive' Smiled Sid
'Good' Rhea stood up
'Rhea… Don't go yet!' Sid put his index finger on his cheek and smiled
'Seriously?' Rhea smiled
'Come on Rhea, I've not had one in ages' Sid laughed
Rhea nodded and giggled as she leaned down and gave Sid a little kiss on the cheek, followed by a long hug from Sid. While that was happening Ash and James were watching from behind and smiling.
'Their a cute couple, even after an argument right?' Smiled Ash looking at James
'Yeah, I'm happy for both of them for finding each other' James looked at Ash
'I can already imagine their wedding day!' Smiled Ash
'Oh really?' Laughed James
'Well yeah, I can also imagine mine, but it's stupid!' Ash looked down
'No, its not, tell me more!' James smiled
'No never mind, just me being a weird hopeless romantic' Giggled Ash
'No tell me about Rhea's wedding' James smiled
'I just imagine… Flowers everywhere, a theme of both Sid and Rhea's favourite colours and an Indian theme to the wedding' Smiled Ash
'That's a pretty good setting' James smiled
'Oh damn, I have to go now!' Ash said looking at the clock
'WAIT!' Shouted James
'What?' Ash turned around to look at James
James smiled and then copied Sid and put his index finger on his cheek and smiled.
'Really? You want one too?' Smiled Ash
'Yup, that's right' James crossed his arms
Ash blushed and then gently leaned in closer and kisses James cheek and then said a quick bye before leaving to get to somewhere, James smiled and saw both Rhea and Sid holding hands looking at him.
'What?' James mouthed
'Nothing…' Sid and Rhea mouthed back while smiling
