Secrets
Kye POV:
I walk down to the hall and over to Arealia's friends at Ravenclaw table. "Hey Ari!" Letitia says nicely. What do I say? Just...hi? I clear my throat, "Uh...hi...Letitia..." I say, hoping I got her name right. "Why are you acting weird?" Danika asks coldly, not lifting her eyes from the book that she's reading.
"I...I am not!" I say, looking at her with a confused and worried eye. She closes her book and looks at me suspiciously, "Ok then..." I smile at her and her face softens. "Sorry...I am a bit...stressed right now..." Danika sighs, putting the book back into her bag.
We continue to talk through breakfast, Arealia's friends are actually pretty cool. I peer over at Gryffindor table and see her. She is combing through her (my) hair trying to make it look at least a little neater. She turns and sees me staring and smiles warmly. I smile back before Letitia pulls me over the table.
"Hey, what-" she cuts me off, "You like Kye!" I look at her bewildered. "No way! Nuh uh! Hell no!" I defend, shaking my head. This just makes her smile more. "You totally do!" she squeals and I scowl at her. She smirks, "Fine, whatever, I will get it out of you though!" Danika just laughs and watches the conversation unfold.
~Meanwhile~
Arealia POV:
I walk into the hall and over to Gryffindor table where most of Kye's friends are situated. Ferris beckons me over and I take a seat to the right of him. "Hey mate! You talked to Arealia yet" he says with a sly grin. Henri and Teddy snicker and wait for my reply. "Yes I did, thank you for asking..." I say in my usual voice which is pretty posh.
Ferris smirks, "What's with the accent buddy?" I look at him and think of what to say. "Uhem...no accent...my throat is sore..." I cough. The boys shrug and start to pile food onto their plates. I grab a comb from my bag and tug at Kye's messy hair. I try to make it neater but it won't stay flat! Uh, boys are so difficult sometimes!
I tug once more at my (Kye's) dreaded locks which cause my head to turn. I notice Kye looking at me, I smile at him. He smile back, and not the normal smirk but a genuine friendly smile. He turns around suddenly and my face falls, I turn around myself and continue to talk with Ferris, Henri and Teddy.
The day goes by quickly and soon I enter the girls bathroom where I am to meet Black. He is leaning on on of the doors of a cubicle with a smirk on his face. "Hey Snape!" he says and his smile softens. Honestly this look on me is cringy, the laid back, bad boy type of impression just makes me uncomfortable.
He notices my distress and straightens up. I walk over to him and we sit on the floor near the sinks. I take out multiple books from my bag and put them in front of us, "Here," I say thrusting a book into his hands, "I went to the library earlier and found these, they might help us switch back."
He flips the pages of the thick book, "Do we have to read? Can't we do something else?" I scowl at him, "Do you want to switch back or not? This is our only rational plan at the moment so get reading!" He looks at me surprised before frowning and opening the book. After about 5 minutes of reading, Kye speaks up again, "So...why are we in a bathroom again?" he whines. "Because no one ever comes in here! It's safe to talk about what happened..." I snap, still reading.
He smirks, "Why?" I shut my book loudly, "Because of Moaning Myrtle!" I shout at him, annoyed. He looks at me confused, "Who's Moaning Myrtle?" I facepalm and wait for it...
"I"M MOANING MYRTLE!" someone yells from behind Kye. He turns and as he does, the ghost girl flies right through him. "Why hello Arealia! Who is this...boy?" she askes Kye, hovering by his side. "Uh...I...um...huh?" He mumbles, looking at me confused. "Myrtle! It's Arealia, we have a sort of problem..."I say looking at her. "Arealia? Why are you a boy? Who is this then?" she asks, flicking Kye's ear. "Hey!" Kye exclaims and moves away.
"Look Myrtle, its hard to explain..."I sigh and pack up the many books displayed around us, "We really must be going! See you later!" I say quickly, standing up and pulling Kye along after me.
I walk him to the Ravenclaw common room and he stands at the door. "Black?" I ask warmly and he turns to look up at me. He stares into my eyes, I melt, now having to lean against the door frame. He blushes and kisses my cheek quickly and lightly. My mouth hangs open and he just smiles. "Goodnight Snape..." he says softly and closes the door leaving me speechless.
I walk back to Gryffindor common room, drowning in my thoughts. Does Black actually like me? How do I feel about this? It dawns on me...do I like him?!
