the dragon's daughter

Chapter 45: Why Not?

September 20th... Hogwarts...

Caleum POV

It's been a good first month so far.  Fourth year started off great, I was flocked by girls when I first stepped on the platform.  Much to the girls disgust.  Even the boys too.  

To lazy to do anything about it. If girls want me, they want me, I can't do anything about it.

Aquila and Rose scolded me for a solid hour about it.  Then Roxy for another.  Then Della for another, then Molly, then Alice.  I had a headache for the next day. 

It's not that I don't know how to treat a girl right.  I just haven't found a girl that Sora cuál to me.  I mean the girls are great in their own way, just not for me.  

James and Aquila have become the school's it couple, much to my dismay, since the moment they stepped in the castle.  

I'm happy that she's happy, but I don't like the circumstances.  

Anthony Pucey still tries to flirt with her whenever no ones around.  But tough luck.  If she's not with James, which is rare, then she's with me, Scorpius, Orion, Gabe, Troy, Freddy, Della, Roxy, Molly, Alice, Frank, a Scamander twin, or Rose.  So it's somewhat impossible.

It's bloody annoying too.  I feel bad for Gabe who has to live with the wanker.

He's already hexed him about a dozen times for something he said.  Good to know he's done something about him.  I was close to 'Avada'ing his ass after he said something about how beautiful she's gotten.  And then wouldn't shut up about it.  

First of all, my sister is gorgeous and has been from day one.  But she's more than a doll.  She's smart and funny.  Very much a feminist.  Stand up for what she believes in and what she wants.  Stubborn, well she's a Malfoy.  Caring and kind, which none of these idiots deserve.  

They see her as a face or a body.  That's not even remotely close. 

James has said something to the people who tell him 'congrats' or some shit like that.  

Great, now I'm hypercritical.

And before any of you says something.  I'm not the playboy type.  I don't mess around with them to break their hearts.  I'm naturally charming.  If a girl takes it the wrong way then that's on them.  I don't lead them on.  Not my thing.  

I smile.  Wave.  Wink.  Run my hand through my hair.  Laugh.  

Whatever...

But don't purposely flirt or lead on.  

Unless I'm actually interested.  Try to let the persistent ones down easily.  

You can hate me or whatever.  

Right now the most important girls in my life are Aquila, Roxy, Vic, Della, Rosie, Alice, Molly, Lily, Lucy, Lana, My aunts, Grandma Molly, Mum.  Oh and now Tresor.  

We got a letter, every single one of us.  I felt bad for the owls.  About Remus and Tresor's arrival.  They also sent pictures.  They were cute kids.  Tresor reminded me of when Aquila was born.

Naturally beautiful, captivating eyes, pale skin, innocent face.  

Remus was like Freddy, from what I've seen. Mischievous eyes, strong features, had that look like he was in trouble for doing something. 

I felt very protective over the two, even though I've never met them.  It's weird.

In reality they're my baby cousins.  Teddy is related to us through a line of people.
