Safe House

Thirty Three

"If you start crying, I will hex you" Draco threatened me.

We were in the Slytherin common room. The Three were on the sofa's whilst i was lying across the floor, with pamphlets scattered all over the floor.

"I forgot we have to have Career meetings!" I said. "I have no idea what to do!"

Luckily, my last name being Weasley meant Mine and Blaises meetings were on Friday, but instead of preparing myself for the careers advice with Snape, I decided to procrastinate and think about Friday being ages away.

But turns out, four days go by very fast. My meeting was during our Transfiguration lesson tomorrow morning .

"Stupid Ministry, I'd rather cut off my left ear than work in the Ministry" I said, throwing two Ministry pamphlets into the fire.

"Don't your Father and Brother both work in the Ministry?" Blaise said.

"And? Doesn't mean I want to, Dad has a fun job, whereas Percy is just a stupid stuck up git. Luckily though, that's he's moved out, cause I get my own room now" I smirked.

"Look, you have high grades, so finding a career won't be hard, you should really look into something with Creatures, you're like top of the class" Theo said, sliding off the sofa to sit with me and go through the pamphlets.

"I guess, but Charlie already works with dragons, I don't want to go down the same route, I want to have an job thats completely my own." I said. "No curse breaker, no auror, no shop owner" I muttered. "D'you think I could be a singer? Like Celestina Warbeck?"

"No, you do not have a musical bone in your body" Draco said.

"Prick" I muttered. "What about a Broadcaster or like a reporter or something?"

"I mean, you can talk about anything for bloody England" Blaise said "Or what about a healer?"

"No, I don't work under pressure, do you think Snape will accept if I say I'll start a family after Hogwarts?" I said

"And who are you going to start this family with?" Theo asked.

"I don't know yet, haven't decided." I replied, earning a shove.

"What classes are you even taking?" Blaise asked.

"What's the minimum?" I asked

"Wait, you haven't thought about that either?" Draco said, looking like he was about to leap off the sofa to shake some sense into me.

"No?" I said, unsure of myself. "What are you lot doing?" I asked, sitting up and moving so I was sat in between Theo's legs, my back to his chest.

"Weasley!" I turned to see Warrington, Pucey and their mates laughing when Warrington called me "I see you're still a Ginger blood-traitor" He shouted from the other side of the room.

"And I see you're still an annoying idiot, I guess nothing changes" I said coolly.

"That'll be five points for being Ginger, another five for being a Weasley, still, ten for talking back to a member of the Inquisitorial squad." He said "Malfoy, I'm ashamed, that you would dare to be seen with that, as you are a member of the IS"

"Hey, Cassie, we really don't have time for this right now, do you mind holding it for another time or something, I'm actually busy, go look for your missing friend or something" I said, rolling my eyes and looking at the pamphlets once again.

"You know Pucey, I still can't believe that you actually went out with it" Warrington whispered loudly for the whole common room to hear.

"I'll never live it down" I heard Pucey say
