Chapter 5
Previously on Chapter 4
I glance at Granger, to see her looking up from her book. I turn to her and smile. Then I walk towards my bed and get under the cover. I pull it up to my neck. I take off my eyepatch, making sure to keep my right eye close. I place it under the pillow and turn to my side. I close the other eye, and let myself drift off to sleep.
-Annoying Pixies-
Y/N P.O.V
I wake up from someone shaking me. I reach under my pillow, grabbing my eyepatch and cover my right eye. I turn my head to see who's waking me.
"Oh, Granger..." I said. "Wake up... you're going to be late if you sleep any longer" she said. "Alright... thanks..." I said. I sit up in my bed and stretch. I let out a sigh and turn my body, placing my feet on the floor.
I give Granger a small smile. Then I grab my clothes and head to the washroom for a quick shower. I let my body relax under the warmth provided by the water.
Then I put on my clothes along with Gryffindor's robe.
Then I walk out of the washroom. Granger is sitting on the bed, she looks like she's been waiting for me.
I look at her with a raised eyebrow. She notice me and stand up. "I'm waiting for you..." she said. "And why is that?" I asked. "So we can go together..." she said, smiling at me. I walk towards the study desk and grab my sling bag. I take out a map and show it to her.
"I won't lose my way if that's what you're worried about..." I said. "I just wanna be nice..." she said. I shake my head. "Don't" I said, in a hush tone but loud enough for her to hear. I sling the bag across my shoulder. I glance at her one last time and leave the room.
I follow the direction of the map towards a room. I take a seat in one of the empty seats. 2 rows from the front. Soon the class is filled with more students as they start piling in.
Someone sits next to me and I glance at the person. It's the Potter boy. He turn his head to look at me and I avert my gaze towards the front of the class. I place my chin on my hand, propped up by my elbow on the table.
"I'm Harry... Harry Potter..." he said. "Yeah... I know who you are..." I said. I don't see a point in trying to be quiet. After all, I'm pretty sure everyone in this school have heard what happened between me and Malfoy.
"Uhh... nice to meet you?" He said. "Likewise..." I said. Then I turn my attention back forward. He take it as a sign that I'm not interested to talk any further.
Harry P.O.V
She's a bit cold. But her eye still hold that gently look in them, even in her voice... her voice is soft and it showed me how kind her heart actually is. But I'm kind of curious what happened to her right eye. Did she got into an accident or something? Well... it's probably not my business and it might be a personal thing. So I'm not going to ask anything. I can't help myself but keep stealing glances at her once in a while, completely not realizing someone is staring at me with full of jealously.
Draco P.O.V
I watch their mini interaction a moment ago. She acted coldly towards me. But she seems friendly with Potter. Why is it always Potter? Potter this... Potter that! Ugh... that boy is so annoying.
Y/N P.O.V
I can feel eyes on me. I know it's not coming from one person only. I close my eyes, focusing on my right eye. Then I feel it coming from Malfoy who is sitting behind me. The thing with it... aside from the curse that's been going in my family, my right eye also helps me use magic without wand.
I only use wand to blend in so I won't become the only odd one. Being a part of Duchanne already make people's attention focused on me. Well, just imagine if they know I can use magic without wand. It will be a lot worse than that.
The door in front of us opens to reveal the Professor. I raise an eyebrow as I look at the guy. I know him... he's Gilderoy Lockhart. He's an author... he claimed that he wrote down only based on experience. I don't believe any of them to be honest. I wonder if any of them are true.
I lift my hand and place it on my right eye. If I open it, I can use my telepathy ability to read minds. But of course, I don't use it much. I don't want to invade their privacy, going inside their mind would do that exact thing.
I'm the only one in my family that have this eye. I don't know why. My sister Lena don't have it. I asked my parents about it, but they just said I'm special. I have something special in my blood. I'm not sure what they meant... but when I asked them about it, they never said a thing.
This eye will chance into one specific color after the Claiming happens. But no one in my family have it. It's very weird. But oh well... I just don't wanna think about it. This eye are already this way ever since I was born.
I snap out of my thought and focus on the Professor. He place a hand on top of a fabric that seems to be covering something.
"These are Cornish Pixies..." he said, taking of the fabric. I can see little creature. They're in the color of electric blue. "These little Pixies maybe small... but they can be nasty too. Now I'm going to release them and I want to see how well you'll handle them" he said. Then he opens the cage. As soon as he did that, the Pixies starts flying around. Everyone starts to panic and hitting them with their books. But I just sit there, not affected.
Another perks of being a Duchanne, is that not a single one of Magical Creatures would bother us. Every single Magical Creatures respects us. I'm sure everyone knows why. Otherwise, we wouldn't be famous among the magic world. Even if I don't mention my name, the creatures would instantly know that I am a Duchanne.
Some of the Pixies flies and stops in front of me. I just look back at it. They bow and fly away to start bothering the other students.
I hear a yelp and turn my head. A boy is being pulled by his ears, the pixies lift him up. Then hang him on the chandelier above us. I look around the room to see everyone being scared. I look forward to see the Professor hiding.
I let out a sigh in annoyance. I slam my hands on the table and stand up. "Enough!" I yelled. They all stops flying and turns to look at me. "Return to your cage. Now!" I yelled, pointing at the cage. They bow at me and fly inside the cage. One of them even close the cage.
I take out my wand and point it at the cage, locking it so they won't be able to fly out again. I let out a sigh and place my wand back inside my pocket. I take a seat and cross my arms on the table. I can feel their shock eyes on me. Tch... so much for keeping a low profile.
