Chapter Five – Lisa POV

I woke up the next morning at 7.30AM and decided that I would go to breakfast seeing that lessons didn’t start ‘till 9AM. I got out of bed and went for a quick shower, after I had showered I put on my new Slytherin robes and smiled hugely “I’m finally here at Hogwarts, in Slytherin” I said to myself “With Draco” I finished, even quieter. I walked out of the girls’ dorm at 7.55 and skipped along the cold corridor between the dorms and the common room, to find Draco asleep on one of the couches still wearing the clothes that he had on last night, apparently he hasn’t been to bed yet. I shook him slightly and he mumbled something along the lines of “Go away Tanya, I’m sleeping clean my room later. Go and see father.” I laughed and shook him harder until he woke. “GO AWAY, DON’T DISTU- , Lisa oh I’m sorry I didn’t mean it. Oh is it lesson time, shoot I’m going to be late” “No” I replied to his alarming mood “It’s not lesson time, I was just wondering if you wanted to come to breakfast with me because I woke up pretty early today, It’s only 8AM” I smiled. “Yes okay, I’d love too” He said standing up “but wait one second while I go and get changed” He said looking down on himself. I nodded to him and sat down on the couch and he ran to the dorm room but before he got there I shouted towards him “Oh, Sorry about waking you up” He chuckled and shouted back “It’s okay I’m sorry for almost shouting at you for no reason.” Barely two minutes later I was being tapped on the shoulder, it made me jump but I turned around and realised that it was Draco. I stood up and saw him wearing his school uniform, he grabbed my hand and we walked out of the common room and up to the great hall in silence, not awkward silence but calming, romantic silence. When we got there it had just gone quarter past eight and it was quite busy. “Probably everyone woke up early on the first day, eager to get through today detention free” I said and Draco laughed. We sat down at the Slytherin table opposite Pansy and Blaise. “Hey bro, hey Pansy” I smiled cheerily and they smiled back. Draco just nodded at them, apparently in no mood for talking at this time in the morning. “So why are you guys up so early?” Blaise asked “Draco, you’re usually late to first lesson everyday by sleeping in and Lisa you’re never awake at this time especially the time that you went to bed at last night, or should I say this morning” “Well, Blaise I’m awake this early because your sister decided to wake me up to ask me if I wanted to come to breakfast with her, and she is up early because she woke up, it’s as simple as that.” I grabbed the nearest piece of toast and Draco started pouring himself some cereal. “So Draco” I started “Who’s Tanya?” “What?” Draco asked, small talk was apparently his thing in the mornings but I wasn’t taking it. It had been annoying me since he had said it and I wanted to know, “I said, who is Tanya?” “Tanya, Tanya who?” “That’s what I just asked you” “Wait, TANYA? How do you know about her?” “you talk about her in your sleep, well not exactly in your sleep, you called me Tanya when I tried to wake you up gently the first time” Oh, she’s nothing just a servant” he smirked and repeated “Just a servant” I realised that was probably the point to drop the subject so I started a new conversation about lessons. “I have potions first with Snape; what about you guys?” I asked. “We have defence against the dark arts first with Gilderoy Lockhart, bleugh” Pansy said actioning the last word, “Just another teacher to fall in love with Potter.” We all laughed and looked over at the Gryffindor table and saw the boy of conversation “Ew, look at him over there with his mudblood friend and his blood traitor sidekicks.” Draco added. We all burst out laughing until we heard Snape behind us “Not laughing at the Gryffindors are you?” he asked “Mr Malfoy, Miss Parkinson, “Mr Zabini and, who are you?” “I’m Melissa sir, Melissa Zabini, I’m new in first year” “ah, ok well hello Miss Zabini I’m professor Snape head of Slytherin house and your first teacher of the day” He stated "I’ve come to give you all your timetables, seeing as you were all eager and came down to breakfast. We usually only tell you your first lesson and you get your yearly timetable there but we’ve decided to give you all them now.” “Thank you professor” each of us said in turn as our timetables were handed to us. “I think that’s the longest that he’s ever spoken to a group of student without shouting at them for one thing or another” Draco joked. “Lis’ you must have that effect on him” Blaise added. “Oh get lost B or I’ll tell mum” I laughed. They all dropped the conversation there because Blaises face turned to confusion then anger. “You wouldn’t dare” “Try me” I teased. I looked at my watch and back up to the group “It’s ten to 9 I’m going to start heading to potions, I’ll see you all at lunch. Bye Pansy, Blaise. I love you Draco” “We might see you when we cross paths between potions and defence because we swap classes, literally, and I love you too” Draco said “Bye” He kissed me on the cheek and we left the great hall hand in hand. When we reached the doors Draco, Blaise and Pansy headed to defence against the dark arts class while I went towards the dungeons to go to potions. When I reached the door it was only 8:55 I was 5 minutes early and most of the students hadn’t even arrived yet. Only the Slytherins were there and probably only because our common room was less than two seconds away. If you looked closely you could actually see the wall that students were probably rushing behind and only if you knew that was where it was you would be able to tell. In the couple of minutes that I had been staring into the distance, the rest of the class had arrived. The person at the front decided that they wanted to sit down so they walked in and sat at the seat furthest away from the door in the back row.  I noticed that he was in Slytherin and remembered what Draco had said the night before and what Blaise had said over the summer “Don’t talk to Gryffindors and don’t ever sit with them.” I smiled to myself when I thought of Draco. I didn’t want to be known as the Slytherin girl who loved Gryffindors and I also didn’t want to be disowned by my brother, my friends and more importantly my boyfriend. I liked the feeling of being able to say that Draco was my boyfriend. I hadn’t even realised but during my thinking time I had somehow managed to sit down at a desk opposite a boy in Slytherin robes. The tables were set in four and I was sat with a boy called Ian and a girl called Joanne. I looked down at my feet and remembered that I hadn’t taken my potions book out yet.  The bell went just as I had put my quill next to the ink and my book was opened at the correct page. I heard the room door open and shut again behind me with a giant thud and Professor Snape came in looking eviller than he had earlier in the great hall, I didn’t see how that was even possible. He stormed to the front of the class while yelling out rules or more like commands “There will be no foolish wand waving or silly incantations in this class” stuff like that and a few others but I zoned out. As the class passed on, Snape seemed to single out the Slytherins as his favourites and the Gryffindors as the worst. Right at the beginning of the class he had mentioned how I was starting out the year well by having my books and everything ready before the teacher had even entered the class; I gained 10 points for it. About halfway into the lesson the door behind me was ripped open again and Ben Dawson entered “Sorry I’m late professor Snape; I slept in.” He managed to get out while stuttering a little bit more than a normal person should; apparently he was as afraid of his head of house as everyone else was. “Nice of you to join us Mr Dawson but you lose 10 points for tardiness there goes Lisa’s good work” Snape said and I sighed. “Take a seat and open your book at page three hundred and ninety four.” He gestured to the empty chair next to me and Ben ran there afraid of losing more points. The rest of the class laughed at him and his face turned as red as mine was last night. His year wasn’t going as well as mine was apparently. I thought back to when I had rejected him at the opening ceremony meal and I began to feel bad because neither of us have spoken since. It turned out he wasn’t mad at me and he was brave enough not to care if he got detention so he started talking, or more whispering, to me. “Hey Lisa Sorry for losing you your points. I didn’t mean to be late I just slept in.” I wasn’t trying to be rude but I wanted to listen to professor Snape “Do you mind? I’m trying to pay attention so please stop talking.” He was taken aback and was shocked at my sudden outburst. He mumbled an apology and bent down to get his book until Snape stopped him “Mr Dawson first you’re late to my lesson, second you interrupt my students and thirdly you don’t even have your book out yet. Even I don’t like giving detentions out to first years on their first day but I shall see you later. My office at 7PM do not be late” Ben was shaking in his seat at this point but I was starting to like Snape even more; I thought of him as a teacher who just wanted to get along with the subject and didn’t like it when people interrupted him or his lesson for no reason. I quite liked potions as a subject and was always quite good at it but I never understood how all of the horrible stuff that went in them could be called ingredients because I always saw ingredients as edible stuff that was put into baking or cooking. The lesson went faster than I expected and before I knew it Ben was stood up nudging me to leave the classroom. SI smiled at Professor Snape as I left the classroom, just at the moment he looked up, and I was sure that I saw Snape smiling back. I started to wonder why everyone hated him or called him mean he was nice enough to me. I think he's probably misunderstood. As I was walking towards defence against the dark arts I zoned out while listening to Ben complaining about detention on his first day until I bumped into something or more someone “Fu---dgy Merlin, what the hell watch where you’re going will you” I looked up into the lovely soft eyes of my boyfriend and smiled shamelessly. “I’m sorry darling I did shout your name at least twice but you seemed to be away in your own little world” I laughed nervously and smiled “Sorry, I was just thinking about stuff that’s all” He smiled and said “aw ok but I better run I don’t want to be late for Potions but it’s nothing to do with me right? I didn’t do anything wrong did I?” He asked with a worried look on his face. “No, It’s nothing to do with you don’t worry because you’ve done nothing wrong” I kissed him and continued “It’s nothing really don’t worry in fact forget about it. I’ll see you at lunch” We waved goodbye and headed off in opposite directions. “I love you” we called to each other “See you soon.” I headed towards my next class and thought about the teacher apparently it was Gilderoy Lockhart that would explain all of the books that were needed for this year. I realised that Ben had gotten quiet and I turned around to see him looking at me, wonder in his eyes; apparently he had just asked me a question and was waiting for an answer. I didn’t care enough to listen so I made up a simple excuse and hoped that he believed me. “Sorry, I didn’t quite hear that. Could you repeat it please? I really am sorry” I smiled a fake smile, looked straight into his eyes and fluttered my eyelashes at him. His heart melted as he looked into my eyes making me laugh internally. “I know that you just weren’t listening but I’ll repeat it for your benefit. I asked you how long that you have been dating HIM” He said with a disgusted tone “I’m not trying to be nosy, just curious, that’s all” I was starting to get annoyed with him and didn’t like the fact that he was making me late and they still had half of the school to travel through. Ten minutes later we arrived outside the door of Lockhart’s classroom and we could hear him inside talking about his hair and his smile “See, you’ve made us late to the second lesson on the first day and all for being nosy about me and Draco.” “Sor-ry” he said sarcastically “But like it makes any difference for you because you were in on time to first lesson an-” “It’s not my fault that you were late but it’s your fault that I am late.” I said getting louder “I’m not walking any further with you.” I was fuming. “You don’t have to because we’re outside the classr- hello Professor Lockhart “ He was standing right behind me and I hadn’t realised that the door opened “Don’t change the subject you rat. Professor Lockhart isn’t ther -” I turned around and walked straight into his cloak “Hi Professor Lockhart’s chest” I took a step back “And hello Professor Lockhart’s face.” He wasn’t very amused with my humor “Are you supposed to be in this class?” he asked, we both nodded and ran inside the class. Professor Lockhart walked back into the classroom to continue the lesson.

The rest of my day went slowly and uneventfully and I decided to skip both lunch and dinner because I was too tired. While I was in the common room waiting for everyone else I began to hear voices, something about killing. I tried talking back to the voice but it didn’t respond to me because it kept muttering “Kill, Kill.” I was listening intently to the voice when Draco came into the room and my face was so emotionless apparently that he thought that I was dead. He called out to me “Lisa, Lisa, Melissa” He started to sob, and I heard him. I snapped out of my trance but he didn’t realise because he was crying too much. “Draco, what’s wrong? Are you oka--” I didn’t get to finish my sentence because I was pulled into a bone crushing hug by Draco. “Help-Can’t-Breath-Please-Don’t-Kill-Me-I-Done-Nothing-Wrong” I whispered whilst gasping for air. He let me go and smiled brightly. “You have done nothing wrong. It’s not what you done that I’m happy for; it’s what you didn’t do” “What I didn’t do?” I said slowly and questioningly. “Yes, what you didn’t do!”He shouted cheerfully whilst dancing around the common room dragging me with him. “You didn’t die. You’re alive!” “Well of course I didn’t die, of course I’m alive. I was trying to talk to the voice.” I was confused with him and he was freaking me out. “I thought you were dead wait what voice?” Oddly enough we were both confusing each other. “The hissing voice, it kept saying it’s going to kill.” He looked at me and then looked behind me towards the clock, it was 6.55PM. “I’m confused but I have to go to detention with Snape, sorry.” He kissed my forehead “I’ll see you when I get back okay?” “Actually no you won--” “WHAT ARE YOU DUMPING ME?!?!” He shouted. “No” I stated, giggling “I’m going to bed for the night.” He smiled hugely “I have to go, bye” He gave me a huge hug and left. “You have a beautiful smile Draco” I whispered to myself while going to my dorm. “You should do it more.”
