Parseltongue and Justin
I'm sorry if you don't like nightcore. I just thought it made the harmonies noticeable. Oh ultimate F-boy anthem.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The color in my face started slowly coming back. I think I should lay off the diary a little bit more. I've been letting Ginny use it too. We are going to flush it or something today because it's scaring us.
I've been using Harry as my diary as in telling him almost everything, except when I only had half a roll of parchment and Severus gave me an E for exceeds. Strange? Yes.
So I haven't been shutting anyone out, and tonight is this stupid dueling club. All I know is I'm going with Harry, and that means it has to be somewhat better.
Actually, I think they are shutting me out. Whenever they talk about an attack around me, they only leave the obvious details. They are probably not letting me know what they are up to like last year.
I went to the mirror and noticed I was pale again. I looked like Jenny from Forrest Gump. Yes, I am that person that makes a reference from a movie almost for everything.
I decided I would put the faintest bit of foundation just to cover up how ugly and depressed I look. Harry will be mad, but who cares? Actually, I do, but whatever.
It's been tough talking to everyone but Harry lately. Harry understood my past I guess. He just makes me feel important.
I met everyone downstairs, who were secretly talking till I came down to them.
"Hello Avalon." They all said trying to act cool. I just looked at them strangely and left.
"Where do you think your going, Love?" The voice that enchants me whispered.
"Church."
"So funny. You are walking with me."
"Why can't I walk with all of you?"
"Um... Reasons." He looked back at the rest.
"What are you hiding?"
"Nothing."
We walked down the halls silently until we stopped right before the entrance hall.
"Can I ask you a question?"
Harry's POV
I decided what the hell. I should ask her out if I'm gonna die trying to get information from Malfoy. She probably thinks he is innocent, but even Nicola believes it's him.
"Yes Harry." She seemed a lot happier than lately. That's when I realized she was wearing makeup.
"No more makeup."
"But I look ugly."
"You are the prettiest girl in school, and you look like the prettiest girl ever through my eyes."
"Gosh, Harry. You are making this sound like we are dating." She was blushing which was adorable. If only she knew how much I fancied her. I would have called her hot.
Avalon's POV
He makes me blush just by looking at me.
"So how are you two? Oh never mind." Nicola said with a smirk, then a frown. I turned around and saw Harry running a hand through his hair.
"We should probably go." Ron said eyeing Harry.
When we went in, every table was to the side except for one in the middle. It was smaller, but you would be able to do a duel on it.
"Hello class. I have done many duels, and my assistant Professor Snape is not so bad himself." Not so bad, my ass. He's probably amazing, but your just a scrawny little piece of faker. A moment later I heard expeliarmus and a thud. Hah. Eat that Lockhart."I guess you should get into pairs. Thanks for showing us the disarming spell, Professor Snape."
"Avalon." Harry called.
"Oh no it looks like the Golden not quartet, quintet will have to separate." He gave Nicola and I a sympathetic look."Potter you with Draco. Weasley with Mr. Crabbe. Miss Granger with Miss Bullstrode. Nicola with Miss Parkinson. Lily with Mr. Flin-Fletchey." I only talked to him once and that was because he said I looked pretty. I mean he is a Hufflepuff.
Harry and Draco were first. I'm scared because Uncle Lucius put Draco in Dueling Camp-ish last Christmas. Since he works at the Ministry, he got special permission.
"Scared, Potter."
"You wish." Harry looked over from the corner of his eye. Severus whispered something under his breath to Draco. Suddenly, a snake came out of Draco's wand. I turned stone cold. (Sorry, I love Demi Lovato)
I heard Harry telling the snake to get away when it turned to Justin and I.
"Get away. Don't hurt any of us. Just disappear." I said. Justin backed away from Harry and I. I looked at Harry.
"I'll get the snake away." Snape said. Justin grabbed my hand and drug me to the library.
"Don't you get that he's the Heir of Slytherin? Now, he has taken control of you."
"He's not the Heir because he's always next to our group. And what do you mean? The last thing he would do is control me."
"You were speaking Parseltongue. It's the rarest language ever. Only relatives of Slytherin himself may be able to speak it."
"I thought everyone knew all pure bloods are related in some way. I mean every pure blood might speak it."
"No, but just stay farther away from Harry. Don't kill yourself."
That wasn't weird at all. Just because Harry destroyed Voldemort doesn't mean he's the Heir.
When I got to the common room, everyone was waiting for me. I sat down in my curled up ball and stared at the fire.
"How did you not know you could speak Parseltongue?" Ron asked.
"I don't know. It sounds like talking in my mind."
"I can speak it too." Harry said.
"Perfect."
"What's wrong?"
"Rumor has it you're the Heir. I think it could be any pure blood, and you're half blood. I can't lose you because of a rumor."
"Why are you too so attached to each other!? Just get married already."
"I'm pretty sure we have to date before we can do that." Harry said.
"I'm going to bed."
"Stop acting strange. You didn't even remember your own birthday, which was two days ago we freaking gave you presents and you just stared." Hermione yelled. I was already halfway up the steps. I fell asleep real quick but in my ball in a corner.
****Next Morning****
"Avalon. Avalon. AVALON!." Hermione yelled. I am NOT waking up." Ginny you try."
"Come on Avalon. You know Harry is dating Pansy." Jokes on you. Pansy is dating Draco." Nicola..."
"Lana Del Rey has a concert during Summer."
"I'm buying tickets!" I yelled.
"It's true she's coming. If you actually said something believable or true, they'll wake up." Nicola said. I suddenly realized I was in my bed, which is not where I was.
"What happened? This is not where I was last night."
"We don't know. You probably sleepwalked over here. Justin Flin-Fletchey and Sir Nicolas have been petrified."
"A ghost can be petrified."
"Apparently..."
"This is getting out of hand." Hermione said.
"He has to be back."
"Who is 'he'?" Nicola asked.
"Voldemort."
"Don't say his name."
"I'm being sassy, so don't be offended. I don't care about his name."
"It's fine. You're not pale anymore." I looked around for the diary. I looked at Ginny. She nodded her head. Has all of this been because of that diary? Well then I'm glad that is gone.
"I'm go get dressed, find Harry, and create a snowball fight with him."
"Oh hell no. We are coming." Nicola said.
"I'll get the boys then. Including the twins." She started blushing.
"Why you little-"
"Avalon."
"Your "best friend" is calling." Ginny said.
"What's with the air quotations?"
"You guys should be dating." Hermione said.
"Again, I'm getting dressed."
"Awe. Your hair is adorable. It matches your future boyfriends eyes. You guys may not officially be dating, but you're dating." Ginny said.
I gave her a look that she knew meant I was going to cry.
"Why am I so emotional all of a sudden?"
"I don't know, but lately I have been too." Nicola said. We all started hugging.
"We should have a girls night in our hole. That will be fun during Christmas break." Ginny said. Hermione and Nicola tensed up.
"What are you guys hiding?"
"We are staying here Christmas break."
"Well, Harry is staying so I'm staying." I said. I gave them a anger filled face.
I ran downstairs waiting for Harry.
"Who is it?" Someone said covering my eyes.
"Pinocchio or is it Joe Sugg because Pinocchio doesn't have a British accent." It was obviously Harry. He kissed my forehead, which made me melt like ice cream.
"No. Try again."
"Is it my best friend in the entire world?"
"Yes. How have you been? I notice your back with the different colored lipsticks and not pale."
"Yep. Lipstick is life." He rolled his eyes." Carry me away Prince Harry." I got on his back, and he ran down the halls. I didn't know he could pick me up and run, but it worked.
"You weigh almost nothing. I'm glad they don't know which way we went to get outside. They've been trying to track us since we stayed together in the cellar."
"Yet, they want us together." I picked up some snow and hit him in the back.
"Oh no you didn't. You did not just throw snow at me." Everyone else came out. They picked up snow and aimed it at me. I picked up snow and made two balls. I threw both of them at the twins. They looked at each other.
"Charge!!" They yelled. I ran behind a pillar.
"Hello Avalon." Nicola said. My eyes were probably huge. "It's fine. I'm not hitting you it's boys against girls. I looked over and saw the other girls hiding.
"We are Gryffindors. We need to be brave and skillful. Let's do this." I crawled around the pillar.
"Did you already forget my Christmas present from last year?" Harry whispered in my ear, but he wasn't there. The invisibility cloak.
"I'm glad you whispered, so now I know where you are." I threw a snowball to my left hitting him. He took off the cloak. I looked at him with innocent eyes.
The twins were already fighting with Nicola and Ginny. Hermione was doing the same with Ron. Now it's just Harry and I. I threw another snowball.
"Oops." I said getting up.
"Oh no you don't." He grabbed my leg knocking me over. He threw a snowball at me, which I returned. I grabbed his leg making him fall next to me. I started giggling just looking at his face of defeat.
He cupped my cheeks looking at me.
"You look the happiest you've been all year."
"Well, I have been keeping to myself lately, but now I'm not." He looked at me in the eyes. I looked back at him. We just started moving in quick-
"Guys... Sshh..." I can tell it was Nicola.
"Are you letting him?" The twins said.
"And why not? Let's just go inside." They walked inside. I looked down at my hands. There was a cut on it. Oh well. I'm not ruining this moment.
"Harry, we should probably-" He just went for it. I'm not pushing us apart, so I gave into the kiss, which didn't last that long because I could here the twins yelling.
"What was that for?"
"I don't want to leave this moment."
"I don't either." Ugh. He's so hot. Weird I'm thirteen saying that? A little. He's still twelve, but I'm thirteen. Age doesn't matter because technically, I'm just like nine months older. Eight and a half if you think about the fact my birthday is halfway through November.
"I think it's time we go inside before they kill us." Harry said.
"Yeah. They are crazy. I'm sure Nicola doesn't care at this point, but my brothers will." He picked me up bridal style and walked instead of ran. His emerald eyes were piercing my brain. Why can't I have him? Because he doesn't have those kinds of feelings. The why did he kiss me? Because he said he was caught up in the moment. Whatever.
"What's on your mind?"
"Just how I was shutting you guys out. Oh and how come especially Ron, Hermione, Nicola and you have to stay here. I mean I know you have to, but not if you spend Christmas with us."
"We just wanted to spend a Christmas with everyone, at Hogwarts." He was tense the whole time.
"What are you hiding?"
"Nothin, I promise. I would never hide anything from you. Forget about last year that doesn't count."
"You sure?"
"Of course." He's still hiding something.
Everyone but the twins were natural when we got to the common room.
"So what else went down on the way up here."
"Me interrogating Harry."
"Ew... You didn't have to say that." Ron said.
"Not like that git. I mean he was hiding something, and I was trying to get him to confess it."
"Oh."
"Yeah. I'm going to get my iPod." I'm so glad I was able to download unreleased songs through Soundcloud. I turned on Jealous Girl and went downstairs. I laid my head on Harry's shoulder. He kissed my forehead, and I started falling asleep.
A few hours later, I realized everyone but Harry and me were at dinner. He was also asleep.
"Harry. Harry it's time to wake up." He started stirring. I ran a hand through my hair.
"I don't want to go to dinner. Everyone is there."
"Then, we'll just have to get food from the kitchen."
"Can we just stay like this and wait till they come back?"
"No, Harry. They are going to get suspicious for nothing if we were sleeping this whole time."
"Fine." He got up as did I.
He doesn't know the way to the kitchen, so I lead the way. I tickled the pear that giggles at everything. That kind of creeped out Harry.
"The twins told me to do it. I'm not mental."
"Wasn't going to ask." The door opened, where a few house elves. "They look a lot like Dobby. The elf that came to the Dursley's to say that I'm in danger."
"Most house elves look alike. Oh, if you have chocolate and French Fries. Ask for whatever you want Harry."
"Treacle tart please. I guess I could have some fries too." (I'm sorry I'm too lazy to call them chips). Haha. He likes junk food like me.
"Thank you, Mrs. and Mr. Potter." We looked at each other and back to them.
"Thank you all so much. Now, we have food." I said.
We left, but we burst out laughing, when the portrait closed.
"Miss Potter." Harry said with a posh accent.
"Mr. Potter?"I said posh too.
"Shall we go?"
"We shall." He put me on his shoulders." Don't kill me."
"That's the last thing I would do."
"I know."
We got to the common room, sat down, and ate. We didn't ask for a lot because, I don't know why he did. I am honestly not that hungry.
We talked for about ten minutes, then the portrait hole opened.
"Have you two been alone this whole time?" The twins and Nicola said in sync.
"No, we went to the kitchens. Duh." I pointed to the food.
"They mean were you two together the whole time?"
"Yeah... Why?"
"We also mean did snogging go down?"
"No. Why would you think that?"
"Because your kiss earlier looked like it could get crazy in here." I looked at Harry who was trying to ignore the situation. I ran a hand through my hair.
"We wouldn't do that especially not where I know you'll find us." I said getting angry. I also learned how to control my insides. I guess you can say I have gotten the Gryffindor courage to go up against Voldemort, or whoever gets in my way.
"Good we'd be throwing up." Ron said.
"Oh and George, I saw you snogging Angelina in the corner of the girls locker room." I saw Nicola flinch, but then she stared at Fred like he was hers.
"It's different. You two are twelve and thirteen." George said.
"Well, if we are cheating death every year, why can't we?" Harry added in to the conversation.
"Good point." Fred said.
Fred, George, and Nicola left to the boys dormitory as did Ron.
"Hello, Avalon. Harry, we should talk just Nicola, Ron, you and I." I looked suspiciously between them. Harry looked at me, pretty much asking for permission.
"Go. I'm going for a walk anyway." They left. I looked down at the chocolate. Oh my God that was amazing chocolate.
I went through the portrait hole looking back before going. I just need a place that will let me center my thoughts, let me listen to music without disruptions, and have a mini fashion shows. What the heck. A door just randomly appeared. What is this sorcery? (Quote told to me by nicole_dayrider21 when we were at school two months ago)
I'm not stupid, I promise. I just went in. Seems like a horror movie? Nope because there were all of the music I've ever listened too, every cute outfit imaginable, and it was pretty quiet. Perfect place. It even had a kitchen. Boom. I even found my own secret place at Hogwarts.
Pretty much I put the Born to Die album by Lana Del Rey on and did a fashion show.
I ran out in the last outfit laughing my head off for no reason. When I got to the common room, I didn't realize everyone as I'm my family and friends waiting.
"I wish I'd been, I wish I'd been a teen, teen idle-"
"Where have you been? And whose clothes are you wearing?" Ron asked
"My clothes silly, and I've been dancing and getting crazy." I said.
"Oh my God. She's gone mental." The twins said.
"No. It's called losing the meaning of life for an hour or two." I had too much cake.
"Harry, this is the only time I will ask you this, but kiss her." Nicola said.
"No more kisses. In fact, I'll just leave again. No following, or I'll ask Peeves to bother you."
I left again except this time needing a place to sleep. The door appeared. It was like an apartment up in here. There was a pantry full of food, a closet full of awesome clothes, and the bed was A WATER BED. It felt like a pool, except I'm not soaked. I'm probably going to get the best sleep ever because there's an iPod with all of my favorite songs. Goodnight, Harry. You probably can't hear me, but...
Nicola's POV
Where the hell she is I don't know.
"I swear if she found better friends then us, I'm going to murder whoever they are."
"I'm sure she's fine." Harry said not to sure.
"Yeah, well, what if she was attacked?"
"Holy crap. Shut up!" Ron said.
"No. It looks like I'm caring more about my sister then all of you. Harry you love her more than a sister, twins, Ron, she's lived with you guys for like six or seven years, and Hermione she's your best friend/sister. Ginny won't leave her side except for now." I heard humming outside the portrait. It better be-
"I wish I'd been, I wish I'd been a teen, teen idle-"
"Where have you been? And whose clothes are you wearing?" Ron asked
"My clothes silly, and I've been dancing and getting crazy." Oh my God. What is this monstrosity?
"Oh my God. She's gone mental." The twins said.
"No. It's called losing the meaning of life for an hour or two."
"Harry, this is the only time I will ask you this, but kiss her."I said.
"No more kisses. In fact, I'll just leave again. No following, or I'll ask Peeves to bother you."
She left.
"What was in that chocolate? It must be drugs." I said
"If there were drugs in the chocolate, I would be crazy right now. She gave me chocolate." Harry said.
"Oh my God. They are even sharing food. JUST GROW A PAIR AND ASK HER OUT!" Wow I'm the feisty one. I know that, but I think if Avalon didn't seem as depressed, she would be crazy.
"I can't okay. I don't even think she has that sort of feelings towards me. People kiss people they don't like all the time. Like she kissed Blaise and we all know that isn't even going to happen."
"You and her have to work. You two are practically dating. You'd be named the cutest couple, or hottest couple."
"No she's like the sun AND the moon, and I'm just Harry..."
"The boy who lived." Ginny said.
"Exactly. How come everyone gets my point BUT you Harry?"
"I'm scared she's going to say no."
"Speak louder I'm practically deaf."
"I'M SCARED SHE IS GOING TO SAY NO!!" He stormed off.
"I'm just going to just..." I went to bed. That's what I meant to say, but I couldn't get it out.
I feel bad for Harry, but I honestly don't care. Oh! Why is Fred so hot? Totally off topic.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am on a roll! Did you like Avalon acting like she was high or something. Yeah, it was just a sugar crash I promise. By the way that was a rhetorical question.
