It says 'I saw you walk into the Forrest' -Riddle' you read it and then another note appears 'meet me at the black lake midnight -Riddle' you sit there and contemplate if you should go you decide to but it's only 8pm so what will you do while you wait. You decide to send a letter to crimson asking if you could come hang in the Hufflepuff common room with her. She's says sure so you walk there and you see crim standing outside the common room door "hi crim" you say as you wave to her "hey nova come in" she says and walks in holding the door open for you. You go and sit down in the common room and all the other Hufflepuffs are staring at you. "What have you never seen a fucking Slytherin before?" You shout and they're eyes fill with fear and turn away you smirk. So you sit and talk then this brown haired girl walks in she sees you and immediately walks over "what's a filthy Slytherin like you doing in the Hufflepuff house?" You look at her and stand up. "what's it look like I'm doing? I'm talking to my friend and if you have an issue then you can kiss my ass"you make a pouty face and put on a baby voice. "But you'd enjoy that to much" you smirk and sit down she walks away. You look at crimson "who was that" "cho Chang." Crimson said with such venom. "You don't like her. Why?"
"She makes my life a living hell just because I hang out with you" you look at her and she seems sad "hey from now on whenever she makes fun of you tell me" she smiles and agrees. You talk for a while then you look that the clock it says 11:45pm. "Oh shit I gotta go I have somewhere to be" she looks at you "ok that's fine I better be going to sleep anyways" you say your goodbyes then you sneak past filch and the cat and you make your way to the black lake. You get there before Theo you see this beautiful horse but immediately know that it's a kelpie. You have always had a fascination with the dark side of mythical creatures you know the entire back story of the kelpie. You look at it it's beautiful (picture at the top) you stare at it and then.Theo comes walking up to you. "what's that" he says looking at the kelpie. "It's a kelpie don't get to close" "a what?!?" You chuckle and sit far enough away from it he sits with you "a kelpie" he looks at you still confused. "Would you like me to explain?" You roll your eyes "yes" he says you look at him and say "A kelpie is a shape-changing aquatic spirit of Scottish legend. Kelpies are said to haunt rivers and streams, usually in the shape of a horse. may appear as a tame pony beside a river. It is particularly attractive to children – but they should take care, for once on its back, its sticky magical hide will not allow them to dismount.Once trapped in this way, the kelpie will drag the child into the river and then eat him. Kelpies can also use their magical powers to summon up a flood in order to sweep a traveller away to a watery grave. The sound of a kelpie's tail entering the water is said to resemble that of thunder. And if you are passing by a river and hear an unearthly wailing or howling, take care: it could be a kelpie warning of an approaching storm." He stares at you in awe " how do you know all of this?" He says you look at him "I read this kind of stuff for fun." You pause for a second. "I wonder?" You say. You stand up and run into the castle you pass by filch and the cat again with Matheo shortly behind "what are we doing?" He whispers "going to my dorm to get something" you get there and go to your trunk and pull out a very old looking book that was under some cloth. "What's that?" Theo asks "it's a bestiary" "it has every detail about every mythical creature including where to find them" you say while scrolling through the pages you finally find it" here it is "the kelpie are often confused with ghost horses. Make sure you can tell the difference between the two because one is harmless and one is not." Your looking at the book together and he says "and I though I knew a lot of mythology."
You both laugh for a good 5 minutes. You finally say "wanna go back to the lake?" "Sure" you sneak past filch and his damned cat and run out to the lake. "How'd you get so good at sneaking?" He asked me "there's this place up on a hill behind my house and when you get to the top of it you can see the moon and it's so bright because it's far away from any light. So every night I would sneak out and go up the hill to look at the stars" I said while looking at the sky "how'd you get so good at sneaking out?" I ask "My parents used to fight a lot so I would sneak out and go walk around at night I would walk around until the sun started coming up." He says as you look at him "well that sucks" at this point your both sitting on the ground looking at the lake "so what did you want to talk about" I say and look at him. "I figured you would want to make some sort of plan on when we're gonna tutor each other" he says and his mood changed it was light and playful now it's angry, wrathful even. "Ok how about uhm..." you sit there and think. " OH every Tuesday and the weekend at midnight." "Sound ok to me" he says with an annoyed face you speak up "ok well I'm gonna go to sleep now" he says "ok what ever" you go to walk away but then you see someone. "Uh oh" "what?" He says annoyingly "it's filch he's walking this way very angrily" you say "detention both of you for the whole week" he says angrily Mattheo rolls his eyes "dorm rooms now" he says you and Theo walk to the dorm "someone must have told him we were out there" Theo says "I bet I know who" "who?" "Either cho chang or Draco Malfoy"you say and roll your eyes Theo looks at you confused and says "I thought you and Draco were friends" "oh no we used to know each other but I don't think we qualify as friends "and here I thought you liked me" I hear a smug voice behind us. "Malfoy." Theo says annoyed "first of all ew I would never like someone like you secondly why'd you tell filch that we were out there Malfoy?" The three of you reach the common room "because you shouldn't have been out there what would your father think" "shut up Malfoy" I say with venom in every word "oh what's wrong did I strike a nerve?" I whip my head around and put my wand up to his throat "one word" you pause "one word and you could be Dead." You almost say it when you hear "he's not worth an expulsion" Theo"s voice calms me down I lower my wand "leave me alone Malfoy or next time I will kill you the muggle way, slowly and painfully and trust me I could get away with it" you turn away and go to your dorm with Theo not far behind you he stops and says something to Draco but your to far away to hear what he says you go to your room and you decide to take a bath you sit in the bath with bubbles and music your hairs up in a messy bun there's candles lit around and that's the only light in there you sit there for an hour Theo knocks "come in" you say he walks in and sees you in the bath he smirks "oh I didn't know you were this comfortable around me" your roll your eyes "I just had a really bad night and you can't see anything" he chuckles "fair enough" he pauses "would you actually kill him?" "If he says some shit about my dad again you bet your as I would" you said and close your eyes "can you get me something out of my trunk?" You ask nicely "sure what do you need" you look at him surprised "my silk black pj set" he smirks "what's the magic word" he says "crucio" I say with a smirk "he looks at me through the mirror "you wouldn't" "how would you know" you giggle "fine please" you say he smiles and it seem genuine "ok I'll bring it to you" he walks out and come back with it when he walks back in there your out of the bath in a towel "here you go your majesty" "thank you peasant" you say with a smirk you grab it from him and he doesn't move "get out" you say he smirks "nah I think I'll stay and enjoy the show" he smirks and it's so damn sexy "if you don't think I will change in-front of you I will" i say with a straight face he smirks and i can tell he's gonna call my bluff "ok" he says so i do i take off my towel and change right in-front of him "I honestly didn't think you would do it" he says i laugh you go and lay on your bed he lays on his.
