Chapter 17. A Scare From A Professor.
Soon morning rolled around. Pansy, Blaise and I were currently on our way to the Great Hall.
Blaise was ahead of us. I leaned over to Pansy.
" I have a plan for tonight." I say to Pansy.
She looks at me curiously. " Harry wants to meet up again tonight, but he wants me to bring you along cause he'll be bringing along his muggle born friend. " I say.
" You want me to come to one of your midnight meetings?" Asks Pansy.
" Yup. Are you in?" I ask.
She smirks at me. " Oh I'm in alright. " she says looking back at Blaise.
" When do you plan on telling him?" Says Pansy.
" When Harry and I are both ready to tell other people about the truce. I don't quite trust Blaise to keep his mouth shut about it just yet and I don't need more people talking about me behind my back." I say.
She nods. " Ok. I see your point." Says Pansy.
I nod. We then walk into the Great Hall. The three of us sit down.
I look at the Gryffindor table to see both Harry and Hermione looking at us.
Hermione waves hi. I give a small smile and nod.
Pansy saw and smiled. " Now I know what you were looking at everyday here." Says Pansy.
I smiled. " Yeah. " I say. Not to sure what else to say after that.
After we eat we head on to our classes for today. After the classes were over. We were hanging outside.
" Don't have a fight with Potter anywhere. " says Blaise.
" Yeah, I wouldn't want Moody coming after me again." I say.
" What was his problem?! He had no reason at all to do that to you. It wasn't right and just down right mean." Spat Pansy.
" Be lucky it didn't happen to you." I say.
" I was really worried about you, you know." Says Pansy.
I give a small smile. " Thanks." I say.
" Let's go back to the common room. I don't want to cross Moody's path." Says Blaise.
" Agreed." Both Pansy and I say.
We smiled and walked into the corridor and turned left only to come face to face with Mad Eye Moody.
The three of us freeze. He was just staring at us.
" Uh, Professor Moody, may we get by you?" Asks Pansy.
" Not causing any more trouble are you?" Says Moody.
" No sir." We all say.
He steps closer. " I was talking to the young Malfoy. " says Moody.
" So, are you causing anymore trouble?" He asks again in a slightly more dangerous tone.
" No sir." I say. He just stares at me. His tongue suddenly flicked out then back in.
He opened a flask he grabbed that was in a small bag around his waist.
He took a long sip of it before putting it back.
He didn't say anything else. He just started walking away and disappeared behind the next hall.
The three of us let out a breath of relief. " Come on, let's go." Says Blaise.
The three of us took off running. We quickly got to the common room and sat down.
" What is wrong with that guy?" Spat Pansy.
" He's a blasted Professor. He's supposed to be nice and handle things the way the others do. Not threaten and scare the crap out of us." Spat Blaise.
" It almost seems like he's protective of Potter by the way he's almost always where Potter is." I spat.
" Does that mean Potter was around them?" Says Pansy.
" He may have already walked down the corridor before we entered." I said.
" This is crazy." Says Blaise.
" If this Professor keeps doing this we'll have to tell Professor Dumbledore. " says Pansy.
" No, not Professor Dumbledore. We will tell Professor Snape first. " I say.
" Agreed. " says both Pansy and Blaise.
" What the heck was in the flask he was drinking?" I say.
" What was with the tongue twitch thing?" Says Pansy.
" I really don't like Professor Moody. " says Blaise.
" Same." Both Pansy and I say.
Finally we decide to sit and rest. This Professor really is crazy. Why on earth would Professor Dumbledore hire this guy to teach Defense Against The Dark Arts?
It's just freakin' crazy!!
Soon after a while it's time to go to the Great Hall for dinner.
Pansy, Blaise and I walk there together, making sure to steer clear of Moody.
Soon we arrive at the Great Hall and make it to our table.
Professor Dumbledore stands up. He walks up to his podium.
" Attention students. " he calls.
Everyone quiets down and looks at him. " I'd like to remind everyone that the First Task is in three weeks. The Four Champions must get all the rest they can get and be prepared. For no one may know what they will go up against." Says Dumbledore. He announces a few more things before finally we started eating.
I couldn't eat though. Him announcing how long until the First Task has taken away my appetite.
Now all I'm feeling is what can only be described as nervousness.
I've never been nervous about anything. I'm a Malfoy. However, to think I'm gonna be going up against a dragon has actually made me nervous and only those who really know me would know that.
Pansy and Blaise try to get me to eat, but I won't. I can't. At least not yet.
Soon after we were done eating we head back to the common room.
We sit. Soon everyone has gone to bed. Now Pansy and I are waiting till its time before we leave.
Soon it's time and I met Pansy by the couch. We both leave and I lead her through the halls.
" Do you remember where your going?" Asks Pansy.
" Sorta. I've only been there once. It's Moaning Myrtle's Bathroom. The one that's out of order. " I say.
" Let me turn on a light." Says Pansy.
" Don't. Filch is always walking the halls. He may find us and that will be bad. Keep things dark." I say.
She nods and together the two of us continue our way towards Moaning Myrtle's bathroom.
