Hope this is good!

Chapter Eight

Looking around to make sure he was not being followed is what Turner spent most of his time on his way to his destination. He quickly entered a room shut the door and turned around.
“ It is about time you got here Mr Turner.” The only other occupant of the room turned around to face the man who had just entered.
“ Yea, sorry Miss Davies, I'll try not to be late again.” Michael Turner sighed.
“ This is not a thing to be taken lightly Turner. Plus, you have displeased me.” Melanie Davies did not look up from the papers she was sorting out.
“ I know it's... Displeased you, how?” Turner asked surprised, as far as he knew he was not followed, no one even knew where he was going. He did not exist, that was his job.
“ My sister in-law knows about you. How?” Melanie finally did look up, and she when she did she had angry fire in her eyes.
“ She.. How do you know that?” Turner persisted trying to avoid the question, and it felt as if a icy hand had just grabbed his neck. Getting Melanie Davies mad was the last thing Michael ever wanted to do.
“ Cho brought you up in a normal conversation only a hour ago, and you where supposed to be talking to Lily Snape and planting the false information with her to make Potter's downfall begin. You where supposed to not be seen by anyone else.. ANYONE!” Melanie stood up, her hands shaking in anger. Michael debated running but knew that was a sign of a coward, which he was not.” Now, I wiped her memory of you quickly, I fixed your mistake. But never, ever again will I do this. He will not be pleased to hear if you did.” Melanie sat back down in her sit.
As Turner left he couldn't help thinking about what there master would do if he heard about the mistake.

*** Tessa's PoV

I sighed as I headed downstairs. I was having nightmares again. Wishing them away never seemed to work. I laughed mentally to myself. That was a childish thought, I noticed someone in on the couch when I arrived at the bottom of the stairs, I couldn't help but shriek.

***Orion's PoV

I think that I am going to kill McGonagall when I get back to Hogwarts. I sat down and opened up my book to read. After a few minutes of reading I heard someone come downstairs. Looking up briefly I noticed it was just Tessa. Then after a second or so there was a sudden shriek and I dropped my book.
“ What the!” I looked up in surprise. Tessa was glaring at me,” what?” I asked wondering what exactly I did, I mean last time I checked reading wasn't a crime.
“ What may I ask are you doing down here?” Tessa was taking deep breaths to remain calm.
“ Reading.” I answered innocently. It had just hit me why she shrieked.
“ That look may have worked when you where three.” Tessa retorted, glaring at me again before walking in to the kitchen.

I was silently congratulation myself on making Tessa shriek like a girl, and I didn't even try. Then I continued reading.
“ What are you reading?” Asked Tessa, she almost made me jump.
“ Quidditch through the ages.” I responded doing my best not to look up, she was probably glaring at me still.” And by the way, what are you doing down here?” The last part I added with out thinking.
“ I had nightmares that you where still here, then I remembered that you really are.” Tessa laughed sitting down on the couch next to me. I rolled my eyes then continued reading.
“ I thought you knew enough about Quidditch, why are you reading the book?” She then asked me. I tried my best not to roll my eyes again, I think I may have succeeded.
“ Because I feel like it, now are you asking me questions because you want to know why I am really down here, or because you want to find a way to get me in trouble?” I asked her. Then we both burst in to laughter.

“ You should know better then to ask that.” Tessa mock scolded after she could speak again.
“ Maybe.”
“ You do.”
“ I doubt it.”
“ So admit to not being smart?”
“ I am smart! I'm just not really interested on what you think.”
“ Or maybe you... Never mind.” We both ended up in laughter at that.” Oh crap! It's already 4:07, I should head back upstairs. Don't cause any trouble Orion.” Tessa said jumping up.
“ Me, trouble! Never!” I couldn't help but respond. Tessa slapped me then headed back upstairs. Girls are confusing...

OMG! OMG! OMG! Wow! Melanie trying to take Harry down? That is outrageous! Something has to be done! This is getting very, very interesting. Hope Tessa's not having really bad nightmares. Haha! She met Orion! That's funny! A nightmare that Orion was still there! Haha! Those two make me laugh! Great post! Loved it! Can't wait for more!

Chapter Nine

The door was closed and locked, I had no way out. And across from me was Timothy he was yelling something which I didn't understand, he was pushing me towards the window. There was noise outside the door, I wanted to get away. Grabbing my eleven year old sister's arm I approached the window.
“ We can't leave you Tim!” I turned around realizing what he was doing, he ignored me. Pushing me out the window on to the ground. He quickly passed me Carla who was sobbing still. Before I could make him follow us there was another shout. The door burst open and two men entered, one of them pulled out a wand and yelled.
“ AVADA KEDAVRA!”

I awoke suddenly forgetting where I was. Looking around quickly I realized I was still in my room. I quickly brushed the tears off my face before I headed to go wake up Carla.
“ GAH! It's only 6:58 T! Let me sleep!” Carla shouted at me, this was my least favorite job.
“ I don't care Carla, wake up it's time to walk the dog before breakfast, which you happened to be making, as usual.” I groaned.” I'm gonna go take a shower so be ready by the time I'm done.”
“ WHAT! You take showers in like 2 minutes! Your absolutely terrible and cruel,” was Carla's reply. I laughed before leaving.

My dream popped in to my head as I arrived downstairs after my shower.
“ You look like you don't belong in this world. Your heads stuck in the clouds.” Carla elbowed me as she put the leash on to Coco.
“ Come on Coco, it's only for a few minutes till we get to the park.” I spoke soothingly to my Yorkshire Terrier,” Orion, are you ready yet? Coco go bite him.” Orion glared at me, Carla resisted a urge to laugh I could tell.
“ I am ready, and if you make that tiny dog bite me I will get rather angry.” Said Orion, still glaring at me.
“ Coco doesn't bite people. We tried for hours once to get her to, so there's nothing to be scared of.” Carla stated, as I headed for the door I heard Orion retort that he was not scared of the dog.

Laughing mentally to myself I opened the door to smell the fresh air, Autumn was creeping upon us, the leaves where already starting to turn there shades of red, orange, yellow, brown. The wind was alive and crisp. I just stood there for a few moments before recollecting my self to shout at Carla and Orion to get outside. They showed up momentarily still bickering.
“ Honestly you two, your going to make me go crazy. Your worse then James and I arguing.” I laughed at them.
“ James who?” Carla asked forgetting who I was talking about.” Oh yea him, you guys argue like crazy,” I rolled my eyes at her, she obviously didn't get my point. It only took us a few minutes to walk Coco, she was a small dog. We got home around 7:26, Carla shouted at Orion and I to stay out of the kitchen so she could make breakfast in peace. I decided that I was going to read Advanced Transfiguration Guide. I really needed to catch up on home work, being the Head girl doesn't mean that McGonagall is going easy on me...

OMG! I can't believe it! Poor Tessa! That's her nightmare! That's so sad! Aw! Coco! He's so cute! And he doesn't bite! I wish i had a dog like that. Haha! Maybe Orion is scared of Coco. Great post! Loved it! Can't wait for more!

I agree, Coco is cute..
Orion says he is not and never will be scared of Coco..

Chapter Ten

Mikoyan slammed her books on the table angrily. Picking up the pale blueish-purple folder of the same table she left the library. Heading towards the library which was two stories beneath her. Upon arriving there she noticed a slip of parchment her mother probably left there

Headmistress-Minerva McGonagall
Divination-Sybill Trelawney
Defense Against Dark Arts-Harry Potter
Transfiguration-Minerva McGonagall
Care of Magical Creatures- Rubeus Hagrid
Potions-Lilly Snape
Ancient Runes-Bethany Miller
Arithmancy-Septima Vector
Muggle Studies-Daffie Grid
History of Magic-Cuthbert Binns
Herbology-Neville Longbottom
Charms-Filius Flitwick
Astronomy-Henrietta Black
Quidditch-Ginevra Potter
Librarian-Hermione Weasley

Quickly glancing down the whole paper she noticed several new teachers, two of them where rather famous.
“ What in the world is a world famous quidditch player doing at Hogwarts?” Mikoyan said out loud surprising herself. She hadn't noticed her aunt was in the room.
“ What did you say Miko?” Melanie asked walking over,
“ Ginevra Potter, who was chaser for the Holyhead Harpies is going to be teaching quidditch and running the matches at Hogwarts aunt Lanie,” Mikoyan answered still staring at the parchment is surprise.
“ That is surprising indeed.” Stated Melanie simply,” now I'll take that and return that to your mother if you don't mind Mikoyan.”
Mikoyan did her best not to roll her eyes, she hated her full name Miko was good enough for her.
“ Yes aunt Lanie,” Mikoyan replied walking from the room forgetting her folder.

Melanie picked up the folder and looked through it briefly, it was filled with pictures of her and Hogwarts friends, all the backs where labeled. The one that caught Melanie's eye was the one labeled.
Albus Potter, Christopher Young, Eliza Bones, Orion Malfoy, Mikoyan Davies.
Melanie raised her wand and made a copy of the picture. A Malfoy was at Hogwarts, this was good news indeed for Melanie. She then pulled a copper ring out of her pocket pressed it slightly then sat down in a chair as if waiting for some one.

*** Michael Turners PoV

I felt the copper ring on my finger burn up instantly, Melanie wanted me. I quickly apparated to the Davies house where Melanie said she was going to be for the week.
“ You wanted me Melanie?” I asked confused.
“ Yes, I believe I have found the man we where looking for. Orion Malfoy, he is the grandson of our dear friend Lucius. And currently at Hogwarts.” Melanie stated blandly.
“ What! No, there is no Malfoy, I checked over and over. How would you even know about this?” This was not possible, she was not supposed to know this.
“ My niece Mikoyan Davies has a picture in her folder, it contains the following students-Albus Potter obviously I need not explain, Christopher Young I know you know Mr Young, Eliza Bones who is the daughter of Susan Bones, Orion Malfoy... Who is indeed a Malfoy and then there is my own niece Mikoyan. I am mildly confused, if you checked the student list how come you did not see the name?” Melanie certainly didn't sound confused to me.
“ I didn't think that he would be of use because he is a.. A Gryffindor.” I muttered not looking up.
“ Gryffindor or not, he is use of us. His father shares the same hate towards Potter as do you, is that not correct Michael?” Melanie never shouted, but the way she spoke made you sometimes want her to shout at you.
“ Yes Melanie. But-” I was cut off
“ But what Michael?” Melanie's voice was cold as steel.
“ Orion Malfoy is normally seen in the company of mudbloods and blood traitors.” I was scared what Melanie's response would be.
“ Mudbloods and blood traitors? That is just a rumor spread by those unworthy to go to Hogwarts to try and bring the Malfoy name down, I am sure that Orion is smart enough to not waist his time on such filth.” Melanie was firm, there is nothing I can do to prove to her that Orion is not a worthy candidate.

*** Carla's PoV

“Oi! T get over here, it's your turn to wash dishes.” I snapped at my sister for the umpteenth time,
“ just a sec Car,” Tessa retorted back, before showing up three minutes later.
“ About time, my fingers hurt.” I glared at her drying my hands off I headed towards the living room.
“ Is cleaning all you ever do in this house?” Orion asked me trying not to laugh,
“ No, mostly fighting.” I answered with a grin, picking up my DADA book I started reading. There was a pleasant silence, I couldn't help but let my mind wander to what the new Hogwarts year was going to be like...

Miko's a cute name. OMG! Miko is Melanie's neice?! And she's trying to bring down the Malfoys?! Oh no! That's mean! Orion's the nice one! They can't do that! This is getting very intense! Great post! Loved it! Can't wait for more!
Kita

Miko is Roger Davies kid
Melanie has some sort of grudge against the Malfoys

I am already working Chapter 11.. I'm debating on them going back to Hogwarts in that one or not..

YAY!YAY!YAY!YAY!
new update!!!! lovin it! PAMS

It's been a few days since I updated, hopefully I will have the Chapter finished and up by tonight. I'll give you a sneak peek

I awoke breathing heavily and deciding that I hate nightmares officially, slipping out of my bed I headed towards the room on the far end of the hallway, opening the door I confirmed that Carla was still sleeping and I made myself know that she was still here.
Duh silly! Why wouldn't she be here, that was just a silly nightmare. Oh I just simply love scolding myself. My mind was a mess and I knew it. I went downstairs to get some water, checking to make sure that Orion wasn't going to scare me again. I gave him enough glory yesterday, he fortunately wasn't down here. But the owl from Hogwarts was. Quickly pulling off the three letters and letting the owl have some water and biscuits I sat down to read my letter. It was rather boring and dull, but then again I did get my head girl badge. I was interrupted from my thoughts of why McGonagall didn't give me the Head girl badge at Hogwarts by Orion arriving in the room.

Oh well, ignore the sneak peek.. Here is the real thing.. Hope it's not to long or short

Chapter Eleven


I awoke breathing heavily and deciding that I hate nightmares officially, slipping out of my bed I headed towards the room on the far end of the hallway, opening the door I confirmed that Carla was still sleeping and I made myself know that she was still here.
Duh silly! Why wouldn't she be here, that was just a silly nightmare. Oh I just simply love scolding myself. My mind was a mess and I knew it. I went downstairs to get some water, checking to make sure that Orion wasn't going to scare me again. I gave him enough glory yesterday, he fortunately wasn't down here. But the owl from Hogwarts was. Quickly pulling off the three letters and letting the owl have some water and biscuits I sat down to read my letter. It was rather boring and dull, but then again I did get my head girl badge. I was interrupted from my thoughts of why McGonagall didn't give me the Head girl badge at Hogwarts by Orion arriving in the room.


“ Malfoy.” I nodded my head curtly, mentally asking myself why I even did that.

“ Uh.. Grath?” He was confused, YES! My plan worked. At least what ever my plan supposedly was worked. I laughed in response.

“ What's up?” I asked through laughter. Orion gave me a look of 'what the heck is going on'.

“ I'm wondering why in the world your acting really really weird.” Orion answered.

“ Oh, that's a girl thing.” I collapsed in to laughter, and before Orion could respond Coco arrived, yelping loudly.” What in the world.” I jumped up quickly to go find out what was going on, Orion. To my annoyance followed.


By the looks of Coco had caught her paw in a rat trap. That had been dealt with easily, then came the harder job... Waking Carla.

I'm not even a alarm clock. Why the heck do I have to do this anyways? I vented out my anger by kicking her door, something that I was happy I did, before I could enter Carla opened the door.

“ Breakfast. Make. Now.” I ordered her through my pain, Carla gave me a look of someone that was over half a sleep then slammed the door in my face. I crossed my fingers hoping it worked before heading downstairs again.
It did work, Carla was down within eight minutes and breakfast was served within twenty-three minutes.
I wonder if anyone knows what peace and quiet is. I thought angrily to myself after being interrupted from my book for the eleventh time.

“ What is it Carla? Is someone dieing?” I asked annoyed.

“ You might die, in case you hadn't noticed, Mikoyan, Lily and Christopher are coming over.” Carla answered me.

“ WHAT!” I exploded. The last thing I needed was Christopher Young coming over, I have had a crush on him since our second year.” No way, and why is he even coming over?”

“ He heard that Orion was over here, and you.”

“ Oh shut it Carla.”

“ It's true. He mainly wanted to become here because of you.” I stared at Carla blankly, what she just said made absolutely no sense.. Glaring at her I began reading again, hoping with all my heart that Christopher was NOT coming over.


Unfortunately Christopher, Lily and Mikoyan showed up within fifteen minutes. Chris was first to show up, oh how I want to murder Carla.

“ Hi Tessa!” He said to me cheerily. I shot Carla a murdering glare.

“ Hi,” I responded dully, or as dull as I could manage. Orion was trying not to burst in to fits of laughter, I wonder why. Oh! I'm blushing, darn you Carla I will kill you! That wasn't the only thought on my mind I could tell as I went back to reading, hoping that Orion wouldn't laugh. He and Carla are SO dead after this. Fortunately Lily showed up next, almost killing Orion with a hug.. That is one thing I don't get, there parents hate each other but there like, best friends?!

“ TESSAAAAAAAA!” Miko announced her arrival rather loudly.

“ Hey Mikoyan! Did you get your prefect badge this year?” I asked, even though Miko was two years younger then me we where still friends.

“ I did! I am so glad, I'll be doing O.W.L's this year, I hope I don't fail.. Do you know what happens when you fail?” Mikoyan asked, I swear she has had sugar recently.

“ I think you redo your year. And Miko,” I waited for her to verbally respond with eye contact before continuing.” Your the best witch in your year.” Mikoyan squealed and hugged me hard.

“ Miss Confusing. It's lunch time.” Orion said to me, I glared at him before realizing what he was talking about.

“ Oh yea!” Sometimes I have to admit I am not the brightest witch ever.


***Elsewhere


“ Is that all you require Mistress Bella?” Iron and sarcasm dripped heavily from Michael Turners voice.

“ That is all Turner.” Bella replied silkily ignoring the sarcasm. Michael turned on his heel and left at once.

Bella also ignored this, staring at the fire and idly toying with her wand. Her face was pale and almost hallow looking, black curls and tangles framing the distorted skin, the eyes where sunken and empty. Bellatrix Black had the look of someone who had been to death and back, as if she had been in much pain, living barely as if part of her soul was still alive. The last real thoughts Bellatrix had before yesterday where of the Great Battle in Hogwarts in which she only survived because she like her master had resorted to the darkest of all magic. Horcruxes.


Lost in her thoughts Bellatrix did not notice someone else enter the room.

“ Madam Lestrange.” A wavering voice said, not quiet surprising Bellatrix.

“ Deroga. You are not quiet what I expected, and it's Black.” Bellatrix was still using her silky smooth voice.

“ Times have changed much since I last saw you Miss.. Black.” Deroga stated as he sat down in the seat across from Bellatrix.

“ They have indeed Vladimir. What do I owe this pleasure?” Bellatrix was always a get to the point right away person Deroga noted.

“ Because of Potter, every Death-Eater knows that he killed the Dark Lord, and he now seeks.. No let me fix that. Does not seek, he now resides at Hogwarts as the Defense Against Dark Arts teacher, the very same job that was refused by someone more worthy, our master.” Vladimir Deroga did his best not to sneer.

“ Oh.. So you blame Potter for everything? I did not see you rushing to the Dark Lords side and taking a curse for him.” Bellatrix's fury was in her tone as well as her eyes.

“ I didn't see you do that either.”

“ In case you hadn't noticed Deroga. I was otherwise occupied.”

Deroga stared at her blankly for a second or so.

“ Now I have a slight problem, my sister and her family the Malfoys need to be dealt with. They abandoned the Dark Lord in his time of need. They will have to pay for this.” The anger in Bellatrix's eyes began to fade away.

“ So it is true then, you have come to take the Dark Lords place.”

“ Hardly, merely filling till he returns.

“ You believe that he will return?”

“ I have no doubt that the Dark Lord will return. He has already done so once.” Bellatrix lied easily, she knew that all of Voldemort's Horcruxes where destroyed and that Potter had killed him then burned the body, there was no possible way Voldemort could return.

“ When do you expect-” Deroga was cut off by another person entering the room.

“ Vladimir, it is time for you to go, do not bother my guest any longer.” Melanie snapped taking the seat Deroga had just vacated, then waited for him to leave before starting to talk with Bellatrix.” Bella, it has indeed been a long time since I have last spoken with you. And even then we hardly met.”

“ That is because you where a faithful servant to the Dark Lord as was I and obeyed him. But Melanie, please tell me what you know about my Grand Nephew.” Bellatrix responded with a smile.

“ Orion is said to be staying at a mudbloods house, and then to return back to Hogwarts to finish his last year as Head boy, and Gryffindor Prefect obviously.” Melanie answered a little hesitantly.

“ It seems to me that there is no Pureblood left that is sane.” Bellatrix scoffed.

“ My family still remains pure, but there is little others then that. The Potters are no longer pure, only two of the Weasley's had enough sense to marry Purebloods, the Longbottom line remains untainted, the Arnies have one last remaining heiress who was adopted by the Longbottom's, and then there is the Young's that still remain pure.” Melanie sighed, Bellatrix nodded in agreement.

“ Melanie, is there anyone in Hogwarts that might be able to help us?” Bellatrix asked.

“ There is still Christopher Young, you may remember his father.” Answered Melanie after a moment of thought.

“ Christopher Young will be perfect, tell me the main details about him.” Bellatrix said with a empty smile.

“ He is a Slytherin, 7th year prefect, I believe he is friends with Mikoyan Davies, I know he is friends with Albus Potter who is in his 6th year, also Slytherin.”

“ Potter named his child after the fool Dumbledore, idiot.... Good, Christopher is exactly who we need.”

“ I will begin gaining him on our side then Bella.”

“ Good luck, enjoy yourself.” Bellatrix continued to stare in the fire as Melanie left...

Okay.. Spoiler for Chapter 12... Sidney is coming back!

Ladeda, got to get to work on that chappie soon

Haha! I love the Orion and Tessa fighting thing! It always makes me laugh! Aw! Coco got his paw trapped in a rat trap! Poor Coco! Aw! Tessa likes Christopher! That's so cute! I couldn't help giggling with Orion as well! "Miss Confusing". That's such a great nickname! OMG! Bellatrix Lestrange?! Ok Black but still. She's back?! And she has Horcruxes?! She's trying to go against her own sister?! Boy that girl is mental! No! She wants Christopher?! She can't have him! She just can't! It's not fair! I love the way you portrayed her, though. Very well done. Great post! Loved it! Can't wait for more!

Hehe, I'm glad you liked it.. Now I just have to find my notebook which I started writing Chapter 12 in and get that part on the computer

EEk! I need to start typing!

Bad bad me, for not updating earlier.. Here it is

Chapter Twelve

“ You didn't ask anyone else to come did you Carla?” I asked, she knows I almost always hate parties.
“ I invited Sid and Lexis, they'll be here soon, I almost invited Albus but decided against it, Sid may bring James though.” Carla responded laughter in her eyes.
“ Sidney knows me to well to do that, she wouldn't want Orion, James and I exploding the house and each other.” I retorted angrily.
“I totally would, and then everyone would place bets. Oh and by the way, if that happens make sure that you win.” Carla winked at me.
“ I will win, but not because you bet on me, because I am naturally faster then either Orion or James.”
“ Orion is pretty fast, I think that you will be a pretty fair match, James isn't that bad either, or else Sidney wouldn't date him.”
“ Sidney doesn't date for protection Carla, she doesn't need protections, the last time someone was on the receiving end of one of her curses they ended up in the hospital wing of for two weeks.”
“ I didn't mean it that way, I-ALEXANDRA!” Carla cut across herself and hugged her friend.
“ Carla! I haven't seen you in ages, how have you been?” Alexandra and Carla headed over towards the couch together.
“ Hey Tess, why exactly were you talking about when I sent Timothy Flint to the hospital wing?” Sidney asked laughing at the memory.
“ Because it was something hilarious to talk about.” I tried to to smirk innocently, and failed totally.
“ So Orion hasn't killed you yet?”
“ Sidney, never mind.. Not yet.”
“ I take it he has been unbearable?”

“ Not exactly, he did make me shriek like a girl though, I was coming down stairs in the middle of the night, didn't notice him sitting at the couch at first and when I saw him I freaked.”
“ Idiot.. Him not you.”
“ I was a idiot also, but I'm surprised Carla didn't wake up.”
“ Must have been really loud if you where surprised.”
“ It was, how has it been at the Longbottoms?”
“ Fun, one of there guests kids called Lexis, Blondbottom, he hadn't stopped looking at her in terror when he showed up the next day.” Sidney was well I burst out laughing. Unfortunately chocking on the water I had just drunk, Christopher came over and patted me on the back a few times.. That certainly didn't help.
“ Carla, your so dead.” I said as soon as I could take again.
“ What did I do?” She asked me confused.
“ You know what you did.” I was trying not to laugh still,
“ what- oh that!” The reason why suddenly dawned on her.” Sorry?”
Everyone else was laughing even though Carla, Sidney and I where the only ones that understood why.

“ Why don't you just tell Chris?” Sidney said to me a few minutes later, a look of horror spread across my face.
“ What!” I sputtered.”And become the school idiot, give Orion a reason to tease me for the rest of my life, no way!”
“ What reason?” Orion asked interested. It took a lot of control for me to not slap him then and there.
“ You don't need to know.” I glared at him instead of the slapping.
“ Doesn't mean I don't get to know.” He stated.
“ Fine. You won't know.”
“ Or maybe I will.”
“ WILL NOT!”
“ I promise I won't tease you about it.”
The offer sounded very tempting, but why? I mean he can't tease me about it if I don't tell him, unless it get's public somehow.
“ No, I won't tell you. You'd tease.. Fine I'll tell you... You remember that joke in our third year? The one about me? That's what where talking about.”
“ What! Your really have had a crush on Chris since you where thirteen?” Orion looked shocked.
“ Twelve actually.” Sidney piped up, she sometimes is annoying. Orion gave me a look of-I hope your joking. Then went over to Lily and started talking with her...

OMG! James coming over? Haha! That's so funny! I can't believe Sidney managed to get someone to the Hospital Wing for two weeks! That girl means business! Aw! Tessa like's Christopher! Ever since she was 12 as well! That's a very long time! Great post! Loved it! Can't wait for more!

Here's a small spoiler from a bad author who isn't posting often enough

As I looked back over the past few weeks I realized that they weren't that bad, Orion was incredibly less annoying. And I am now dating Christopher Young, I can hardly believe that he asked me out over a week ago, tonight I am going on my fifth date with him. And half the girls in school are jealous. I think that I am growing less hateful day by day, I find myself acting nicer. I bet Sidney's rubbing off on me finally. Groaning, I decided to go to the Head prefects library, there are all sorts of books in there that aren't in the normal library, probably because we have to do more research.

Another update!

Chapter Thirteen

As I looked back over the past few weeks I realized that they weren't that bad, Orion was incredibly less annoying. And I am now dating Christopher Young, I can hardly believe that he asked me out over a week ago, tonight I am going on my fifth date with him. And half the girls in school are jealous. I think that I am growing less hateful day by day, I find myself acting nicer. I bet Sidney's rubbing off on me finally. Groaning, I decided to go to the Head prefects library, there are all sorts of books in there that aren't in the normal library, probably because we have to do more research.
“ Hey Tess.” Orion looked up quickly from his book then returned to reading it.
“ Hi.” I simply responded, picking up a book for Charms. There was silence, and my book was completely boring.” Whatcha reading?” I asked after a few minutes.
“ Quidditch through the ages.” Orion smirked at me,
“ Is that all you ever read?” I couldn't help but ask.
“ Maybe,” Came his reply, then started reading again. Over a hour later we both started to exit the library, it was getting late. Surprisingly Orion held the door open for me.
“ um, thanks?” I said warily.
“ No problem.” Orion sounded cold, and.. Polite?! It looked like he was crying.
WOAH Girl calm down! Orion would not.. Yea he is!
“ What's wrong?” I asked after mentally screaming at myself.
“ Nothing.” Orion quickly responded turning around and shutting the door.
“ Yea there is, you don't normally cry.” I surprised myself. Usually if he was crying or near there I would tease him endlessly. I'm getting to kind.
“ Nothing is the matter, at least nothing that you can deal with.” Orion snapped.
“ No need to get angry.” I retorted just then noticing how close we where together.
“ I'm not angry, I just don't like you getting in to my personal business.” Orion seemed to have calmed down a bit.
“ I was just wondering why you where upset, your not someone that easily upset.” I persisted, trying to ignore the fact that his face was inches away from mine.
“ When I said I would appreciate if you two became closer to each other, I didn't mean that close.” There was a sense of humor in McGonagall's voice. I jumped over a foot away from Orion, doing my best to not pull my wand out as I did, I also seemed to have gone rather red.
“ Did you want to talk to us?” I tried to calm down.
“ Actually yes I did, I wanted to let you know that the students from the other two wizarding schools arrive tomorrow.” McGonagall still sounded humored.
“ That's great.” I smiled.
“ Perfect.” Orion seemed cheered up suddenly, McGonagall cast us one last curious glance then disappeared.
“ You sure there's nothing I can do?” I rounded on Orion, making sure I was at least a foot away from him first.
“ 100% Sure.” Orion half glared at me, then turned around and left, I thought I heard him mutter something that had to do with pureblood but I wasn't so sure. Quickly I got ready for my date and left.

>>>>>Hogsmeade

“ Really.. I enjoy this and all, but.. I don't feel myself around you, I dunno, it doesn't make any sense.” I almost groaned in frustration.
“ So.. You don't want to date me anymore?” Christopher was way more calm then I expected him to be.
“ It's... Yea.” I looked down at my hands.
“ Alright, he's really lucky you know.” Christopher said standing up.
“ What..?” I asked blankly.
“ You obviously like someone else, I was just saying he's lucky.” Christopher hugged me then left. I was going to protest but decided against it. I decided to go with glaring at him in my mind as I trudged back up the castle and slumped down on one of the couches in the heads living room.
“ What are you doing here?” Orion asked me suspiciously, I jumped up and almost shrieked.
“ Uh. Came back early, what are you doing here?” I countered suppressing a grin as I sat back down.
“ Didn't feel like going to Hogsmeade.” Orion answered taking the chair opposite from where I was sitting.
“ Yea right.” I muttered,
“ yea, right.” Orion said, somehow hearing me.” You look upset.”
“ I... So what if I am?” All thoughts of grinning disappeared with the thought of breaking up with Christopher.
“ Why are you?” Orion ignored what I said.
“ Erm... Because I am.” I knew this wouldn't work.” I broke up with Christopher.” I finally added. Orion watched me with, awe? Happiness? Confusion? Boy's are so hard to understand. After a few minutes of silence I decided to go get a book to read, it took me about eight minutes to find a book to read, and the one I found was rather dull. Finally I decided to get some rest, because classes started again tomorrow. Shortly after getting in bed, I fell in to a deep sleep...

Aw! Tessa's dating Christopher? That's so cute! OMG! Is Orion jealous? Haha! McGonagall's comment was hilarious! Ooh! Students coming? That's so exciting! Aw! Christopher and Tessa broke up? Poor Tessa! Good on Orion, though! Great post! Loved it! Can't wait for more!

Almost done with Chapter Fourteen

That took longer then I expected

Chapter Fourteen

I awoke breathing heavily and gasping for air, not noticing someones hand on my shoulder.

“ What's wrong?” Orion surprised me so much I half shrieked.

“ Nothings wrong.” I glared at him.

“ So you normally scream in your sleep?” Orion asked sounding deadly serious.

“ I was..” I silently cursed under my breath.” Fine, I'll tell you if you take your hand off my shoulder.” Orion did remove his hand from my shoulder, but seated himself on my bed.

“ I was having a nightmare of when your grandfather and someone else murdered my brother in front of Carla and I.” I sat up as I finished, there was silence in the air for a few minutes.

“ I can teach you how to block out the memory.” Orion finally said, I looked up from my hands I was twiddling.

“ You can?” I forgot to be angry with him and sounded a little eager.

“ Yea. Come with me, you can research about what I'll teach you.” Orion stood up and held his hand towards me. I took it with out a moments hesitation, and only after leaving my room did I notice I was hold Orion Malfoy's hand. Quickly I withdrew mine, hoping that he didn't react.

At least he didn't say anything, last thing I need is... Er. What exactly is the last thing I need?Before I could decide Orion half shoved me on the couch.

“ Wha- Oh never mind.” I mentally slapped myself for zoning out. Soon enough he was explaining occlumency to me...

***The next morning

When I woke up the first thing I noticed is that my head was on Orion's shoulder.

“ What the! What happened?” I sat up obviously taking my head of his shoulder.

“ Good morning to you too.” Orion half smiled at me.” You fell asleep.”

“ I did not fall asleep!” I almost yelled at him.

“ Uh.... Yea you did.” Orion looked at me as if I was going crazy.

“ Fine. What happened-” I cut myself off as I looked around the room and noticed sitting on a chair opposite of the couch was a slightly amused looking Draco Malfoy.” Hi.” I said for lack of other words.

“ Hello..” Draco Malfoy looked like he was about to burst out laughing.

“ Hi dad?” Orion also seemed near laughter.

“ Your both crazy.” I glared at Orion.

“ Really... Am I?” Draco asked sounding slightly more serious.

“ Um.. Yea.” I half punched Orion as I walked by him towards my room, when I came back Draco and Orion were talking.

“ Yes.. Actually no, she's gotten less 'I'm going to kill you' over the past few weeks.” Orion sounded amused.

“ Could she kill you?” Draco asked.

“ Probably...” Orion answered.

“ I heard that.” I smirked at him before leaving the room and heading towards the great hall.” Sidney.. We need to talk now.”

Sidney looked up at me confused but stood up all the same and followed me.

“ How did last night go?” Sidney asked me.

“ Er.. What? Oh never mind.. It went horribly, we kinda like broke up.” I answered.

“ Oh. Sorry?” Sidney hesitated a little bit.

“ I kinda dumped him.. But that's not what I wanted to talk about, I have a problem.” I laughed a little.

“ What kind of problem?” Sidney seemed more interested.

“ I think I like Orion Malfoy.” If I had been talking to anyone other then Sidney they would have said- Oh that's nothing, everyone likes him. But fortunately, I'm not talking to everyone else. Sidney's mouth dropped in to the shape of a small o, then she quickly shut it.

“ That. Is. A. Problem.” Sidney finally spoke.” That's kind of creepy.”

“ Yea.” I smiled a tiny bit. Sidney matched my smile then we broke in to laughter...

Aw! Orion's so nice! He always seems to be there for Tessa! Ooh! He's going to teach her how to do Occlumency! I guess that's good for Tessa. Means she doesn't have to have nightmares so much. Aw! Tessa fell asleep on Orion's shoulder! That's so cute! Haha! That must have been very embarrassing for Orion! OMG! I knew it! Tessa likes Orion! Eep! It's so cool! Great post! Loved it! Can't wait for more!
