Secret Child of Bellatrix Lestrange

Chp 6

I carefully rip open the paper to reveal a tiny box. I open in slightly to see Bertie botts every flavored beans. I laugh remembering the first time I tried these with him and I got all the good flavors and he got many bad ones. Some of the worst one in the bottle.

"How are you so lucky and I just keep getting vomit of earwax!" I remember him saying.

"I don't know?" I say popping another into my mouth, "peppermint!"

"Thus us stupid," he had said.

I hadn't thought of that memory in a long time. When he gets back I'll have to try some with him.

"I can't believe that I have to go into that forest with that oaf hagrid and potter with his dumb friends ," Draco complains

I'm sitting on the stairs with him eating the every flavored beans with him. I have no idea how I got him to try them again. I take one of the beans and eat it.

"Shut up you idiot, they're my friends too," I say a little pissed.

"Oh crap sorry," he says.

"Besides you wouldn't be having this issue of you hadn't gone and tattled on MY FRIENDS," I say emphasizing the my friends part.

"Ok jeez I get it they're your friends and this is a giant life lesson," Draco says sarcastically.

"You are insufferable. Oh crap sorry to big a word, you are horrid," I tell him.

"Ok that's a good one I guess. I'm going to use that on Harry," Draco says.

"You know what go right ahead," I say.

He looks at me proudly.

"I'm getting- um- toffee?" I say unsure.

"I think I have chocolate!" He says.

We finish off the jar and he stands up. It's about time for his detention anyhow.

"I guess I'll see you later," he says.

"Bye, good luck, don't die," I yell as he walks away.

"Harry said you freaked out," I say.

"I did not," Draco yells.

"Said you ran away like a baby," I say mockingly.

Apparently while in the forbidden forest they came across a man drinking unicorn blood. Harry was telling me that Draco ran away screaming like a little girl.

"I ran away like a man," he said.

"Your not a man," I say.

He puts on a frown.

"Hey I got to go. I still have to do the paper for potions. I hate potions. Bye," I say turning the other way to leave.

"Bye," Draco says.

I get back to the common room and find the trio sitting together and whispering. They look up at me as I approach.

"Go on, continue your conversation," I say.

"Um, well I guess we'll do this tonight then. Um we'll do what hagrid was telling us to get into the trap door," Hermione says.

I didn't know what she was talking about until she mentioned the trap door.

"The door under the big three headed dog!" I say.

"Um yah," Harry says.

"And you guys have a plan to get in and out leaving me out of it?" I ask.

The trio looks down. I realized they really were planning to do this without me.

"Im sorry lexi, it's just you have not been with us when we gather information. It's not you. If you want to help you can. It actually might be good to have more help," Hermione says.

I can feel her desperately trying to make me feel better. I nod and smile thinking of everything that can do wrong.

"I guess I'll join," I say.

"We're going tonight, I'll wake you up," Hermione says.

"Thanks mione," I say.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I feel Hermione shake me awake. I let out a moan wishing I had decided not to come.

I get up and through my clothes on. I almost forget my wand but I grab it last minute.

I creep downstairs with Hermione and see the boys down there already.

"Let's go I guess," says Ron.

We head out the door and towards the third floor corridor. We open the door and see the dog laying on the floor asleep already. A harp was on the corner playing.

"Snape must have already been here," Harry says.

"Wait you think it was Snape?" I ask.

"I mean yah I guess," Harry says.

I shrug and continue on.

We get to the trap door when I gets quiet. The harp had stop playing.

The dog I now know as fluffy begins to stir. We pull the trap door open quickly and jump just as the dogs jaw snaps down.

We fall on a plant. It begins to wrap around us. It begins to squeeze harder as we struggle. Ron is in full on panic mode.

"This is a devil snare. Stop panicking it'll release you," Hermione says.

She stops struggling and get sucked down by the plant.

"Hermione," Harry and I yell together.

"Stop struggling," she yells from somewhere below us.

I sit still and breathe and fall through the vines followed by Harry.

Ron still struggling doesn't calm down.

"The devil snare doesn't like light, lets use that!" I yell.

Hermione nods in agreement. Harry looks around confused.

"Lumos Maximus," I say as my wand lights up.

The plant shrivels back as Ron falls to the ground.

"It's a good thing I didn't panic," Ron said
