TW: A little bit of smut, not too much. (This chapter is pretty much as mild as it will get when it comes to the smut- fair warning.) Mentions of drug and alcohol- characters also get high and drunk in this chapter. Also, there is a fight at the end, just in case I wanted to put it in a Trigger Warning.
We walk to the common room in hushed tones, excited for the party in the Room of Requirement, but we didn't want anyone to hear about it, especially Milicent, who was already suspicious.
We met up with the boys and began to walk to the Room of Rec, looking over our shoulders every minute or two. My heart was racing.
What would happen if we got caught?
We eventually, after many flights of stairs, reach the location. Blaise walks forward and walks past the door three times, a look of hard concentration on his face. Suddenly, an iron door materializes out of nowhere, and Draco whoops with excitement and he was leading Octavia through the door. We followed after them, looking around, we saw everyone there.
But a few certain Slytherins, of course.
Our group goes to a corner in the back, away from all the sweaty people and smoke from the drugs.
One of the Weasley twins' doing, no doubt.
Octavia managed to yank Draco to the middle of the room and began to dance, or more accurately, have sex with their clothes on.
Disgusting.
I got up to go to the punch bowl, where Pansy was standing, pouring what looks like firewhiskey into the bowl, I chuckle and go up to her, using my wand to refill her flask, and laughing even more when she added it to the bowl.
"Thanks, I'm gonna need it," I say as she hands me a fresh cup of the spiked punch. She gives me a smile and walks over to a boy, I couldn't tell who it was. I turn around and bump into Cho Chang, who was in tears.
"I-I m-miss him s-so m-much!" She wailed.
I completely forgot Cedric Diggory died. I rolled my eyes as she went into a fresh wave of tears and went back over to the remainder of the group.
"Ugh, Cho's beginning to sound a lot like Moaning Myrtle," I complain to Tania, who was straddling Blaise's lap.
"Can we do this later, Tay?" She asked, turning back to her boyfriend and they began to eat each other's faces. I roll my eyes and drank from my cup, trying to ignore my sister and her boyfriend as they got up and left the party entirely. I know for a fact she won't be able to walk tomorrow morning. I use a refilling charm on my drink, filling it back up to the brim with "punch" and downed it once again.
"Hey everyone!" Yelled a drunk Ernie Macmillian over the music, "We're gonna play Spin the Bottle!" He laughed and sat down in a circle. I finish my fourth refill and stand up, even though my head was starting to go fuzzy, walking over to the circle. Out of the corner of my eye, I notice Mattheo getting up, too.
I sit down next to Hannah Abbot, a pretty Hufflepuff girl with blonde hair.
"Here are the rules; No incest, we have Weasley's playing. If you spin the bottle and you land on someone for a second time, you have to play Seven Minutes of Heaven with them, same for any time after that. Next, since this all has to be consensual, please write your name on this piece of paper," She conjured a piece of parchment out of nowhere, signing it, then passing it to me.
"Let's play!" She laughed once everyone had signed the paper. Finishing her bottle of Firewhiskey, she placed it in the middle and spun.
It landed on Neville Longbottom, who turned very red.
She smirked and got up. Neville stood up as she got closer to him, his face looked like it was about to explode. She closed her eyes and put her lips on his.
He dropped to the floor, passed out.
I take the bottle in my hand and I spin it, watching it go around and around.
After a while, it stopped, I look up to see who it landed on, and get relieved when it's just Adrian Pucey, one of my old friends.
I get up and walk over to Adrian, noticing Mattheo glaring at me, I decide to do something that'll drive him nuts.
I pull Adrian in by his collar, smashing my lips onto his, I feel his hands grab my waist as we sink deeper into the kiss. It was nice, he tasted like Firewhiskey and cocaine. Eventually, I feel cold metal rings on my shoulder and I turn to see the new professor breaking Adrian and me up.
"DETENTION, MISS ASHERS! DETENTION, MR. PUCEY!" She shrieked, pulling me out of the Room of Requirement by my hair. "GET TO YOUR DORM. NOW!" She shouted, attracting the attention of Peeves the poltergeist.
"Roses are red, Violets are blue, I don't like professors, SO FUCK YOU!" He cackled and sped off before Umbridge could say anything. I snickered and ran to my dorm, Octavia not far behind me.
We get to the common room, gasping for air, Draco, and Mattheo not far behind us.
"How. In the hell. Did that crusty. Old bat. Find out?" Octavia asked while gasping for breath.
"I don't know, but you can guarantee my father will be hearing about this," Draco swore darkly, flopping on the common room couch.
"What are you doing here?" Asked Milicent Bulstrode, coming out from behind a corner, as if she was waiting for us.
Maybe she was.
"Milicent," I began, digging my nails into my palms, "Did you tell Professor Umbridge about a secret party in the Room of Rec?" I ask, my voice becoming high-pitched. I already knew the answer.
I just needed her to admit it so I could pummel her.
"I wasn't invited, so yeah, I did! Theodore did some digging around for me. Neville Longbottom was invited? Seriously?" She snarked, walking in circles around me.
Like a predator circling its prey.
Well, unlucky for her, this prey fights back.
"If you didn't realize, we weren't in charge of the guest list," I growled, biting the inside of my cheek.
"Aw, does that make you mad? The fact you can't control things? When Theodore was digging around, he found out a deep, dark secret about you and your sister." She cackled. "Tell me, If you could control things, would you control your parents?" She smirked as I inhaled a breath in shock.
"What about my parents?" I ask, closing my eyes, not wanting to see the smirk on her face.
"Would you control them and stop them from leaving you? Their disappointment of a daughter?" She threw her head back in laughter when she saw my eyes open, full of tears and sadness.
And anger.
With a screech I lunge forward at her, taking her by surprise, I knock her to the ground, straddling her waist, throwing punch after punch, I don't stop when I can feel the skin on my knuckles break, hell, I don't stop when I feel my knuckles themselves break. My train of punches comes to a pause and that's when Milicent overpowers me, our positions reversed, the tears on my face dripping down into my hair as she throws punch after punch, making me see stars. I feel her being pulled off of me, and hear Draco shouting at Milicent, telling her how his father would be getting her expelled. My head was then being pulled into someone's lap, a beautiful face, one I always scowl at and tease was now looking down at me with concern and care. I could see his mouth moving, forming words, but I couldn't hear, I then felt his hand smooth down my hair.
Everything went black.
