The Cursed One

Happy Memories

Since the moment I read about the break out, I couldn't think straight. My mind was in a sort of trance. Even in the middle of classes I was having a pretty hard time concentrating.
"Are you ok...?" Hermione asks me.
"Yeah..sure" I say as we walk to our today's DA class.
Harry and I still don't talk to each other. What does he want me to say?
That I love him? No way in hell am I going to say that as long as he stays with Cho. They're still dating. And yeah did I forget to tell you that I went on a date with Blaise? It was amazing! The fucking best! He is such a great guy that I decided to take him on a date. I asked him out and he said yes. The date is tomorrow.
As I walk into the DA class I see everyone looking at me.
I'm done with this.
"Stop staring at me like that! Its not like I helped Bellatrix break out of Azkaban!" I say loudly.
They all look away.
Suddenly Fred says "Stop irritating her or she'll tell her mom!"
Laugh and smile at him thankfully.
Today Harry said that we were doing a patronus charm. I had never tried it before but i knew the spell.
He says us to think about a happy memory and allow it to fill us up. I think and think yet no memory comes into my mind. It was as if I had no happy memories. Every time I think of a memory, I always find a sad tint to it and even though I tried multiple times I just wasn't able to cast it.
Ginny managed to cast her spell and her patronus was a horse. I try again. Nothing.
Hermione casts an otter and it floats around her. It was beautiful.
Still nothing for me.
Ron manages to cast a dog. Still nothing for me.
Luna casts a hare. It jumps around everywhere. Still nothing for me.
Everyone was able to cast theirs and I was standing there staring at everyone.
"What happened? Why aren't you casting yours?" Harry asks coming towards me.
"I-i cant-t" I stutter not meeting his eyes.
He looks at me and then suddenly asks everyone to practice.
"Can't find a happy memory?" He asks.
My eyes widen. I nod.
"I know you're capable. Even if you have no super happy memories a small happy memory is enough for you to cast one...I know you can.. think of a memory which gives you the feeling of family.." he looks into my eyes and whispers.
I take a breath in and think.
The first memory that comes into my mind was when I was 6.

Flashback

I was sitting in the garden of Malfoy Manor looking at Draco playing with his expensive toys.

I had none. I was always alone. I had no friends because Lucius never let me go outside. I sat under an apple tree. Suddenly one of Draco's toys came flying my way. I took it and started playing with it.

After a few minutes Draco came and snatched the toy away from me saying
"Its my toy!"
"Hey give it back! I had it now!" I say not pleased with what he did.
Suddenly he pushed me down to the cold hard ground and said
"My father bought this for me! Ask your father to buy you one!.." and then he snickers and says "Right! You don't have parents!"

Then he walks away. I stand up again and look at my both knees to find them both bleeding. Then I suddenly felt tears escape my eyes. Then I started bawling loudly. Suddenly Narcissa came running and asked
"What's wrong?!"
"Draco said I don't have parents and that's why I don't have toys..Is it true?" I ask her in the middle of crying.
She doesn't answer me.
She then kneels down in front of me and hugs me hard and says
"Even if they're not with you now, they will come one day and then...you'll have more toys than him.." then she lifts me up and says "now let's patch you up.."

End of flashback

I open my eyes and smile at Harry and whisper "thanks.."
Then I completely focus and say
"Expecto patronum!"
Suddenly a silver hippogriff bursts out of the tip of my wand and flies around me. I look at it astonished..
My patronus was a Hippogriff.
Then I hear gasps as everyone looks at my patronus as it flies around.
Hermione says "that's a really rare patronus!"
But then suddenly I hear some noises out side the room. Suddenly the glass on the wall shatters and falls to the floor. Harry tries to look closer but then suddenly he jumps back and the wall explodes.

Umbridge was standing there with Filch and near her was Draco standing there with Cho.

She ratted us.

I always knew she was a bitch.
