The Slytherin princess

Chapter 8 // women have two sides

Hermione's POV // October 31st

"one of a wizard's most rudimentary skills is levitation or the ability to make objects fly, uh do you have your feathers?" Parkinson picked it up to show him, such a professor's pet "good, now uh don't forget the nice wrist movement we've been practicing, the swish and flick, alright?" we picked up our wands

"swish and flick" we chorused while doing that same thing with our wands

"the incantation is, Wingardium leviosa, off you go then" soon the class was filled with the noises of kids announcing 'Wingardium leviosa'

"Blaise it's not that hard"

he scoffed "fine, you try it"

"Alright, Wingardium leviosa" the feather lifted off my desk the same time Parkinson did hers "see" I looked towards my twin who was pouting

"oh, well done! See here everyone, Miss Zabini and Miss Parkinson's done it! Oh, splendid!" I sniggered when Blaise became very mad

"awe don't worry Blaise I'm sure your Hufflepuff best friends will hel-" I was interrupted by another explosion, by the one and only – bomb boy ok fine his name's Seamus but that's his nickname and he deserves it if I'm being honest,

"I think we're going to need another feather over here professor" well no! note the sarcasm

-

"I'm just saying Wren, we may be Slytherins but there is absolutely no need to be horrible to people who don't deserve it unless it's for fun of course" I heard Weasel coming toward us, making fun of someone

"it's leviOsa, not levio sarrr" I realized he's talking about Parkinson, especially since she's tearing up and walking behind them

"she's a nightmare! Honestly, no wonder she hasn't got any friends" she pushed past him and walked in the direction to the girl's bathroom

"I'll show you" Wren stayed sitting on the bench while I went towards the now crying girl pushing open the door to the girl's lavatory

I heard whimpering and crying, I knocked on the door before opening it

"oh, Zabini sorry I'll just-" she stopped when she saw the sympathetic smile on my face, she started crying again

"it's ok, I get it, boys am I right?" she nodded "I heard what he said, I'm sorry" she nodded again "they don't understand, I get it" she looked up, confused

"I mean, I can't imagine what it's like to not have magic but I know that when I find out about something to do with muggles I want to know everything about it, I guess it's the other way around for you isn't it?" she nodded smiling slightly
"and you wanna prove that muggle-borns can be as good as pure-bloods don't you?" she nodded once again "just ignore people like that, like Draco I guess"

"Why are you friends with him? And act the way you do?" she croaked out through her non-stopping sobs

"I don't know, I guess, I mean I was brought up with Draco and I was taught that acting the way I do is right, so I do it"

We talked for about an hour

"We better be going, dinner has probably already started, I'll leave you to calm down a bit more though" she nodded, looking in the mirror to see bloodshot and puffy eyes "oh, don't tell anyone I was here or I was nice to you, it'll ruin my rep"

she laughed "wouldn't dream of it"

I walked outside and saw potter and weasel running towards the bathroom I just came out of, I hid behind a statue so they wouldn't see me, but they made me realize there is something bigger I should be afraid of seeing me

"I think the troll's left the dungeon" my head whipped around to see a gigantic troll, going into the girl's bathroom

"oh no," I muttered I didn't wanna be seen so I left potter and weasel to try helping her first, just in case then I heard a scream

"c'mon Hermione, stop being such a wimp! Help her!" I murmured to myself, I heard more screams so I looked inside

All the cubicles were smashed and broken, Parkinson was trying to hide underneath a broken sink, potter was sitting on top of the troll with his wand up its nose and weasel was just watching the scenes

The troll pulled Potter off his shoulders and held him upside down in his hand

"DO SOMETHING" he shouted to Weasley

"what!" Weasel looked around, I tried figuring something out

"anything! Hurry up!" he brought his wand out and I did too. I thought of something. Parkinson must have realized what he was doing, so did I, and I know it's not gonna work, so I'll make him think it worked

"swish and flick" she instructed

"Wingardium leviosa!" I muttered the same thing from my hiding place so they couldn't see me

The troll's club raised in the air just before it was gonna hit potter, it looked up and I let the spell go so it'd fall on his face.

It did and the troll stumbled and fell, nearly hitting Potter but he got out of the way in time

"is it... dead?" Parkinson asked them

"I don't think so, just knocked out" Potter answered, I heard the professors running towards us, I got out of the bathroom and quickly ran to the Slytherin common room

"GUESS WHAT JUST HAPPENED" it was only Draco, Blaise and Wren left in the common room when I ran inside

"thank god we thought you were killed by the troll"

I laughed "it's gonna take more than a troll to kill Hermione Zabini, you can't get rid of me that easy... Wait you were worried Draco?" I teased

"well- I, N-no no of course I wasn't"

I nodded "Sure you weren't, anyway" I sat on the sofa next to Blaise

"let me tell you......
