A/N: hi guys! I know it's been like 4ever since I last updated and i'm relay sorry about that! school has just been SO busy this year and I had some terrible writers block :( luckily, I'm back now and here's the newest chapter! hope you like it!
Persephone was in a much better mood.
Maybe Draco had some non-bully left in him?
She was singing to herself - a song that sounded kind of like 'Creeping In My Soul' by Cryoshell (only she'd changed the lyrics to reflect on her own struggles and woes; giving it a hole new personal meaning) - as it was relay early in the morning and she was pretty sure she was all alone.
That was when she heard a voice!
"Omg Persephone there you are1!1"
Persephone gasped. And then she turned around.
There was a girl walking towards her. She looked a bit younger than Persephone but there was somehing familiare about her. As she stopped walking,it was clear she had the same beautiful, molten chocolate brown eyes that Hermione has. Her hair was an untamed river of caramel swirl curls, coming to rest around her shoulders. Altho she was young, she was absolutely breathtaking; the same sort of beauty Persephone possessed, but tamer somehow. More innocent.
"Who are you?" asked Persephone.
"I'm diana! Your other sister!"
Persephone gasped.
"But how can that be...i didnt see you when i went to Raven Grange!"
"Oh I was on holiday." Said Diana with a lovely smile - one so remnant of Persephone's own; capable of bringing men to tears. "My best friend Susanne lives in France, and she invites me there every year! Shes in Slytherin, but she's not a bully."
"Dont worry, I would never judge anyone for being in Slytherin. I know a slytherin who is a brilliant person! His name is Draco Malfoy."
Diana gasped.
"Draco MAlfoy!?" Diana gasped. "But I thought he was a bully!"
"I'M CHANGING HIM." Persephone declared, heartfeltly. "He can be a good person! I just know it! I can see in his heart like I'm looking through a window into his soul."
"That is amazing!" said Diana. "I'm so glad to have finally met you, Persephone! I love HErmione but it's good to have another sister. Especially one as clever and beautiful as you. It must so be so great to be in Ravenclaw. I am in Hufflepuff. Everyone always acts like I'm not important because of this."
Persephone felt anger sore into her heart like the furious wings of a phoenix. How dare anyone say that about her sister! "Never think that about yourself diana! You are beautiful and kind and i can tell you're going to be an amazing sister! I am so glad to have you and Hermione. Everyone used to bully me."
"OMG. you were bullied too?" Diana's eyes wdened. "I get bullied sometimes. By a boy. He's called Spenser Richardsun. He thinks he's better than me because he has loads of money, and he always goes out of his way to harasss me."
"Everyone can be changed." persephone replied wisely. "You just need to talk to him. Help him see that bullying is bad."
"That's so true!" said Diana. "Thank you Persephone. I'll see you around! I am meeting with my friends Susanne and Anthony by the lake."
"See you soon Diana!"
"Bye sissy!"
Persesphone smiled brightly. Another sister! Today was gonna be such a geat day.
Perspehone went back to the Ravenclaw common room and sarted dpong her assignments. She got all A's on her last work and she needed to keep thi up! Just as she was finishing her astrology work, Bastian came in.
"Hi, Bastian!" She smileded. "How are you?"
Bastian smield back, but it seemed halfheaerted somehow almost as if he was….. nervous
?
"What's wrong are you OK? HAS SOMEBODY BEEN BULLYING YOU AGAIN?" She RAGED.
"No, no!" Bastian laughed. "No one would bully me after you stood up for me! No…. this is something else. There's, well, something i wanna ask you….."
"Of course! Anything!"
"Well.. Persephone… the thing is…. I'm in love with you! Wil you go out with me?"
Perspehone gasped.
She loved Bastian…. But not like that. She sighed. This was the downside to being so beautiful and lovely…. Too many people loved her.
Persephone smiled at him. "Bastian… I love you,but not like romantically. You're like my brother, not like my lover."
Bastian nodded. "Welll…. I can't make you love me."
"But!" Persephone said. "Why don't you ask out Lyric? She's beautiful and lovely and great nd i think she loves yoU!"
Bastian perked up. "I lvoe Lyric! Almost as much as I lvoe you!"
"Well, as her out. Hey you haven't got anything to lose right?" Philosophized persephone.
"RIGHT!" Bastian hugged her. "Thanks, persephone. You're amazing."
"Bastian, you're amazing too!" he huged him back. "Thanks for understanding."
"See you soon!""
Later that day, Lyrics came to Persephone with aig smile. "Guess what! Bastian asked me out!"
"That's so great! I'm so happy for you."
The two of them hugged and smiled and ate ice cream until it was late at night and then they hd to go to bed. It had been such a busy day, finding out about DiANA,, bastian's confession of love and her own excellent mathmaking, that she hadn't seen draco or snape! Oh dear… well, there always tomorrow.
