Draco walked with me to Pinkys office, waiting for her. I leaned back on the wall, chewing on my gum. I heard footsteps and it was just Potter. I forgot, he also got detention. He kept staring.

"What are you staring at Potter?" Draco got into his face. He didnt even lose eye contact with me. "Eyes off my girlfriend, i wont ask again."

"Or what?" Draco pins him against the wall. I grabbed Dracos arm.

"Love, he isn't worth it." I whispered to his ear. Draco shoves him away.

"Never look at her again." He kisses me and leaves.

"Well Potter, seems like teachers like you. Extra credit maybe?" I played around, trying to throw him off. "Suspicious when its just you alone, with them."

"Shove off Daphne." He growls.

"Ooh Did I touch a nerve?" I awed, he clenched his jaw. His green eyes reached into my soul. How cute he's trying to be mad.

"You dont ever stop do you?"

"Only when you ask politely." The door opens, revealing Umbitch.

"Come in." She steps back. I shoved Potter back as I stepped into the horror room. Cats everywhere, pink. "Good evening, Mr. Potter, Miss Snape." We both sat down on the desk she had set up. "You're going to be doing some lines for me today." We both reached into our bags, getting our quills. "No, not with your quills." She took them away. "You both are Going to be using a rather special one of mine." She gives us some quills from her desk. "Now, mr. Potter I want you to write, I must not tell lies." And she turns to me. "Miss Snape, i want you to write i am a lady and must not joke around." Thats the most stupidest thing I've ever heard.

"How many times?" Potter groans.

"Well, let's say for as long as it takes for the message to sink in." She turns to the window.

"You haven't given us any ink." I sassed.

"Oh, you won't need any ink." We looked down, I started writing. Nothing showed up. I kept writing over and over and nothing came out. Then i felt a piercing pain on my hand. Both Potter and I winced in pain. "Yes?" She hums. I looked at my hand. The words i wrote down, it wrote on my hand.

"Nothing."

"That's right. Because you know, deep down you both deserve to be punished. Don't you?" We both nodded our heads yes and we returned to our lines. Gasping at every line we wrote. I hate this woman.

Draco and I went to help my father set up the classroom with cauldrons. I tend to not show my left hand as much, not saying anything about what happened yesterday.

"Did I mentioned that Draco bought me a new piano?" I said as I sat down, scratching my hand. "It's honestly beautiful-"

"Daphne, what happened to your hand?" Draco took my hand and looked at it closer. The sleeve of my robe didn't reach. Oh no. My father came, looking at my hand.

"I uh burned myself with burning cauldron. Clumsy me." I lied as I backed my hand up. My father wasn't buying it.

"Strange that a burn engraved i am a lady." He looks at me.

"Who did this to you?" Draco frowns. I sighed. I pulled down my sleeve.

"Umbridge." My father storms to the door but i took out my wand and locked it. He shot a look at me.

"This is not allowed!" He got mad. "She tortured you!"

"If you tell her, she's going to do something more, probably worse to me." I stood up to my father. "I learned my lesson."

"Daphne, this still isn't okay." Draco stood up. "Its like she branded you."

"Branded." I scuffed. "Dont say such a word. Please, I dont want this to get out of hand. Specially with her." We all left it alone. Draco and I went to class and walked the halls. We stopped as we saw Professor Mcgonagall and my father followed Umbridge.

"Pardon me, but what exactly are you insinuating?" She acted innocently.

"I am merely requesting that when it comes to my students you conform to the prescribed disciplinary practices." Mcgonagall told her.

"Especially one of them being my daughter." He father snaps at her. Everyone turns to me.

"So silly of me, but it sounds as if you're questioning my authority in my own classroom Minerva, Severus."

"Not at all, Dolores, merely your medieval methods."

"I am sorry, dear. But to question my practices is to question the Ministry and by extension, the minister himself. I am a tolerant woman but the one thing I will not stand for is disloyalty." She turns to us. I clenched my books close to my chest. Angry. I was angry.

"Disloyalty." My father scuffs.

"Things at Hogwarts are far worse than I feared. Cornelius will want to take immediate action." Daphne slowly took out her wand, just one spell and itll be over.

Harry noticed that when Daphne took out her wand, he remembered the person who killed Cedric did the same. His eyes widen. Daphne killed Cedric. Shes a deatheater. He quickly ran to tell Ron and Hermione.

"I think Daphne is a deatheater." He pants as she found them by the stairs.

"Daphne?" Hermione frowns. "Why do you say that?"

"The night Cedric got killed, the person who killed him got her wand out of her boot, and who do you know puts her wand in her boot or sock?"

"Daphne-"

"Exactly!" Harry interrupts Ron. The two stared at each other and looking back at Harry. "You don't believe me."

"Sorry Harry but, Daphne a deatheater? Thats bizarre! Yes shes mean, but I dont think she has the guts to actually kill someone." Hermione tells him. "I know she won't do it because of Katherine."

"Why does her name sound so familiar?" Harry asks her.

"Cox? They're the riches family in the Wizarding world. Above the Malfoys. Something happened to their sister, went rouge or something. What was her name? Fanny? Francis? Florence? Freda?" Ron lists on and on. "Fiona!"

"You know that big black castle, in The forest in Devon? That belongs to the Cox family. Its bigger than the Malfoy Manor."

"Why would Katherine nanny Daphne if shes already rich? And why would she nanny in her home? Why bring Snape in?"

"Word is Snape and Katherine had her."

"Ron!" Hermione smacks his arm. "Thats not true. Nobody knows who her real mother is. I overheard Blaise talk about it in third year. She doesn't know who she is even."

Days later Umbridge took over Hogwarts. Making up rules, after rules after rules. It was like Dumbledore wasn't in charged anymore. She's digging a hole into Hogwarts, right to hell. Nobody liked it. I didn't either.

One day, Draco and I hid from the others into a empty hallway. Where nobody was. We teased each other, kissing, as normal couples do.

"Youve been a very bad girl." He smirks as I ruffled his hair.

"Oh yeah? What will you do if I did this?" I kissed under his jaw, sliding my hand over his chest.

"Ohh." He moans out. I hummed. He pressed me against the wall. "Youll see."

"Not here!" Draco flew back to the other wall. Pinky bitch separated us. "No kissing." And walked away smiling. How in the hell did she find us! Its a big school! I frowned as I watched her walk away.

The other day, my skirt was a little too short, she whips out her wand and made it longer, making me trip. I growled. I had enough. More rules were added everyday. It was insane!

"You applied first for the Defense Against the Dark Arts post, is that correct?" She went around the school, evaluating professors, including my father. He hated her.

"Yes." He as he stood there, in front of the class.

"But you were unsuccessful?"

"Obviously." Weasley chuckles. I gave him a glance. After she left, my father smacked him upside the head. She came then into my choir class, Flitwick was rolling his eyes. I wanted to smack the pink off her as I sang. Heres a few things she added, She banned all of the Weasley twins candies and pranks, no music, dress code. I had it up to here.

"Did you hear?" Lisa comes into the library where I was studying for the OWLs.

"What?"

"Its Professor Trelawney." I quickly ran out of the library and saw Professor Trelawney, as Flich tossed her bags. She was leaving, no, they were kicking her out. Draco came in, watching.

"Not her." I whispered. She cant leave. Shes my favorite teacher. Blaise saw how worried I was as Trelawney cries out. I nearly choked on my tears. Professor Mcgonagall comes in and comforts her. She took her inside as Dumbledore came back.

"You actually care for the wack job?" Pansy said as she was with Draco. "She doesn't even know whats she doing half the time."

"And? Shes a great person." I shook my head as Draco didn't even say anything, who laughed at the view of her leaving. "Really?" I frowned at him, storming off. "Evil little bitch!" I screamed at my father, who i vented to. "How dare she! Professor Trelawney! My favorite! I want to crush her!"

"Calmed down dear." He puts his hands on my arms.

"What if it was you she kicked out." I choked. "She cant do this!"

"She can actually." I plopped down on the chair he had.

"She's taking over the school father!" I crossed my arms and huffed. "I rather be in the academy." My father sits on his desk and looks at me. "Then Draco laughed as Trelawney was sobbing. I cant believe it!"

"Dear." I was over my head. I haven't been myself and i needed to talk to my father.  "Youll be okay."

"Ill be okay when the bitch dies."
