Right now I'm patiently waiting in this overly loud great hallโ Dumbledore requested all sixth and seventh years to return back to the great hall not later than eight. Well, it's way past eight and this old tosser hasn't even said a word. But what's making this all so much worst is that Nathaniel and Blaise is having a food fight and guess who's sitting in between them? Lucky me.
"I swear to fucking merlin that if you get those mash potatoes In my hair I will beat both of your asses" I warned, sending them both harsh glances.
Blaise slowly put the hand full of mash potatoes back on his plate. He mocked me under his breath as he wiped his hands off with a napkin.
My eyes looked up to the entrance of the great hall only to see Ivy and Jade walking in with their hands entwined. Not that I cared that they were dating, I just found it weird how Jade knows that Ivy is my friends and just randomly decided to date her. I was planning to tell Ivy but I mean if she's happy what's the point, don't want to ruin that for her.
But what I didn't find great about this thing that they having going is that Jade purposely wants to sit at the Slytherin table just to send me weird looks making me way more than uncomfortable.
"Hi guys" The two girls greeted in sync with the same cheesy smile on their faces. Instead of them sitting next to Theodore, I was lucky enough to have the both of them sitting right in front me, great.
Blaise who didn't like the whole idea of them dating either rolled his eyes and went back to his conversation with my brother without greeting them. When Ivy seen she got no reaction she folded her arms across her
chests and huffed, she turned to Jade who nudged her to be quiet.
Oh, I see what this is.
"The two of you go from one night stands to girlfriend and girlfriend, Impressive" I said dryly as I picked up a bread roll. "Didn't think you were that type of material Wright"
Jade looked at me wide eyed and her mouth slightly dropped. She shook her head and snapped herself back into reality.
"Rebekah, don't start" Ivy warned.
I rolled my eyes and scoffed. "I'm just saying what's on my mind, Ivena... sorry if your girlfriend feels disrespected" I murmured.
When I seen Dumbledore rise up from his seat and walk to the front of the hall I went quiet and the great hall that was just booming with laughter did as well.
"Good evening ladies and gentlemen" he greeted in a soothing tone.
I replied with a quick nod, still looking down at my hands that I was ripping apart the bread roll with.
"So as it is known all of you is getting a chance to attend the celestial trip this Christmas break, but it is a requirement that you get a passing grade on the test that will be given to you at the end of this month or sadly, you will not be able to join us"Dumbledore explained.
Loud groans and yells about it being rubbish came from students all around the great hall,
I couldn't help but to snort at their doubting of themself. Me, well call me cocky but I was more than sure that I was going to past the test like I always do.
"Silent!" Dumbledore went silent and the great hall quickly returned back to it's quietness.
"On the twenty second of December you are to be here no later than eight in the morning"
After that I just sort of tuned him out because what he was talking about I found rather pointless. That was until I heard,
"The bonding part of the trip is that everyone will be assigned a parter to do all of their activities with, and this person that you will be selected with will not be one of your friends,
There will be a parchment paper posted in the great hall the day of your leaving with the names of the partner" He explained.
I didn't mind being paired up with anyone, as long as it's not someone in that stupid fucking trio. Because I planned on enjoying my trip not being fucking nagged or told what to do.
"Holy hell I need to start studying for this test" Theodore sighed, speaking for this first time this whole afternoon which wasn't like him, at all.
"I'm not going" Blaise whispered dryly making me immediately look at him with my eyebrows furrowed. What does he mean he's not going?
"I thought you've been waiting for this trip since second year... why aren't you going Blaise?" I said lowly still looking towards the front of the great hall where Dumbledore's was still talking.
"Because I want to spend Christmas with Luna and she's not old enough to go, so I don't want to go" he explained.
An decent person would probably find that romantic but I was in fact not a decent person.
I found it repulsive that he's putting Luna over something that's he been wanting to go since he was a child. Love is not a belief in my head but Blaise had to feel something for Luna to make do that, he's in really fucking bad.
"Your mum doesn't oppose to you dating her?" Theodore questioned from beside me. I'd been wondering the same thing, but I never bothered asking.
"She does, but why would I care about something my mum has to say about my life"He responded flatly.
I couldn't be any happier when Dumbledore finally dismissed us, not even waiting for any of my friends I dashed out of the great hall.
But I absolutely did not want to go back to my dorm room, because I know if I did I would ask Ivy why she's fake dating Jade. So I decided to go to the lake, somewhere I knew I wouldn't be bothered.
โ โ โ
I reach the black lake and sit down next to a random tree that I thought had a cool shaping.
My hands reached into my bag and pull out my blue journal.
But for I could open it up and began drawing I noticed a bunch of flowers of different verities.
My head title and eyebrow raised from curiosity. I wonder if I could...
I grabbed a handful of he flowers and balled up my hand, immediately crushing them. When I opened my hand back up the flowers were dried up and brown causing me to smirk contentedly.
But my moment was quickly ruined,
"What are you doing here, Ron?" I asked
with aggravation easily detected in my voice.
Although I hadn't seen him I could tell by
the heavy footsteps that it was him.
He finally came into my view with his eyebrow furrowed and arms folded on his chest. "You don't own the lake Moons" He hissed. "But if you must know, your blue haired friend sent me to look for because you didn't return back to the dungeons"
"Well, you've found me.. go tell her I'm okay and leave me alone, please" I mumbled, looking at the dead flowers in my hand.
"Did you do that, to the flowers" He face plastered with perplex as he pointed to the palm of my hands.
"No Salazar came from his grave and did it, bastard" I sneered through gritted teeth hoping that if i was rude to him he'd get
mad and leave.
He glared at me and growled. "You know that your out past hours, all I have to do is tell McGonagall and there goes there celestial trip... I would hate for that to happen, you've made it so far" He just wanted to make it known he has the upper hand. I really fucking hate him.ย
"Or I could jinx you and leave you out here to bleed out" I say lowly with an large grin on my face.
Ron's mouth opened and closed. "You wouldn't dare!" He spat.
He sure as hell didn't believe that, did he? If he did he was reading right through me because I wouldn't. But I couldn't let him know that.
"Thought by now you would've learn not to doubt me and what I'm capable, Weasley"
I cooed.
Silence fell upon us and I felt satisfied that I finally got him to shut his big fat dad. I finally looked up at him and it looked like he was thinking about something maybe about what he was going to say.
"I don't doubt you Moons, but I know you wouldn't" He mumbled so soft that he could've been talking to himself. He kneeled down to the point where he was only a few inches away from me.
I rolled my eyes. "And what the hell makes you think thโ" I bit out.
"Because you like me" he interrupted me, putting his hand on my chin and fondled it.
"Doubting that it's actually me that you like but mainly the way I look"
I looked up at him with furrowed eyebrowsโ My lips parted to say something but nothing came out I was beyond lost of words. I choke out a humorless laugh and shake my head.
"I don't know what your talking about Ron..."I said lowly.
His jaw clenched and he huffed. "You don't know what I'm talking about, hem? Save that lying bull shit for someone who'll actually believe it, princess" He hissed. That stupid nickname dropped from his mouth with pure venom.
"I don't care about you" I snapped harshly with an troubled expression on my face from how hard it was to force that out of my mouth.
Why was it so fucking hard to get that out?
I couldn't care less about Ron or anything he did. So what the fuck is wrong with my stupid mind?
He grabbed onto my wrist and pulled me to my feet. My feet unknowingly moved back until they couldn't anymoreโmy back came in contact with the trunk of the teeth making me slightly wince. I looked up at him with confusion as he lowered his head.
"Liar" he seethed and glared at me.
"Listen to the words that are coming out of my mouth .. I couldn't care less about you, Ronald" My tone low and slightly unsure. It was beyond obvious that I trying to convince myself that instead of tell him.
His eyes flickered from my eyes to lips. A loud gasp escaped my lips when I felt his hands fly to my waist. He leaned forward and pulled me closer to him. What is he doing? For a moment I thought he was about to kiss me, but his mouth went to my ear.
"We both know that you do, stop lying
to yourself Moons" he whispered ever so smoothly into my ear sending shivers down
my spine.
"Stop that!" I yelled as I shook my head. My hands shoved at his chest as I hard as I could making him stumble back. "I don't, I don't care... I don't, so stop that!"
I shook my finger in his face. "Stop doing that to me it's not funny anymore... stop, please!" My voice lowered at the word please.
"Stop doing what?" Ron asked, acting as if he was oblivious as fucking always. Yeah he was stupid but definitely not that stupid.
"Just leave me alone, alright? Stay away from me for the rest of the year and I'll stay away from you" I suggest, looking up at him with hope in my eyes.
My mind didn't even give him a chance to respond before my hands grabbed my bag from the floor and my feet hurried me off back towards Hogwarts grounds.
I wanted him to stop, I needed him to stop playing these mind games with me.
"Miss Moons, How nice to see you!" a voice exclaim before my feet even touched Hogwarts making me curse under my breath. What does Slughorn want with me today.
A forced smile grew on my face I turned around. "Hello Professor Slughorn" I greet lowly.
"I know that you've made it clear that you have no interest in my club" he said. Yeah I wouldn't dare be caught dead in the same club as that mudblood granger. "But I'm having a Christmas party the day before you leave for the celestial trip and I'd really like it if you'd come and see how it is and maybe you could reconsider you decision"
"I'll think about it, but I really need to get to bed so" I said before walking off. I highly doubted that I'd reconsider anything and the fact that he won't leave me alone was beyond irritating. He already had my brother so what the hell does he want with me?
I regretted leaving the black lake when I see Ivy and Jade standing outside of the doors to the Slytherin common room with an worried expression on both of their faces.
Well this is absolutely great.
