To Potter

<<6>>

The next morning, rumours about the second attack from the heir of Slytherin was circling around, from what I've heard Colin Creevy, the boy who keeps taking photos of my brother, was attacked last night, trying to sneak into Harry's room.

Yesterday, Harry had told me about the Polyjuice potion they were brewing so I assumed to go to Myrtle's Bathroom. I went up making sure neither any prefects or Filch were around before opening the door. I heard voices coming from the cubicle and then it turned to a whisper. "Hermione? Ron? Harry? Is that you?" I say. Suddenly I hear a sigh of relief as they recognized my voice. "Y/N! You gave us a fright! Come in." Hermione said, letting me in the cubicle with them. "How's your arm?" I say to my brother, with furrowed eyebrows. "Fine." He said stiffly

Harry began telling us about Colin. "We know." Hermione said. "We heard professor McGonagall talking to professor Flitwik this morning." She continued. "So we came here, the quicker we get a confession out of Malfoy the better." Ron said as he looked at me quickly, noticing my confused face. "What?" I say in confusion. "Oh Harry! You didn't tell her why we're brewing the potion did you!" She taps Harry lightly on his non-injured shoulder. "We think Malfoy is the Heir of Slytherein, I mean with his hatred for Muggle Borns it makes sense." She clarifies. "There's something else." Harry begins. Ron, Hermione and I shift our attention back to him. "Yeah?" I say, "Dobby came to visit me last night." He says. "Dobby is a house elf who stole my mail and asked me not to come to Hogwarts." Harry clarifies, obviously noticing the look of confusion on my face. Harry then began telling us what dobby, had or hadn't told him.

"So the Chamber of Secrets has been opened before?" I say. "So Lucius Malfoy opened it when he was at school." Ron adds. "But I want to know how no one has seen the monster creeping around school." Ron continues. "Maybe it's invisible." Hermione says. "Or maybe it can disguise itself as armour or something. I've read about Chameleon Ghouls." She continues. "You read too much." Ron says rolling his eyes. Putting something in the potion. "If dobby doesn't stop trying to save your life he's going to kill you." I add as we all burst into laughter.

By Monday morning, Collin Creevy's attack was pretty much on everyone's tongue. I sat next to Mi-yeong, noticing how bad Ginny Weasley looked, the poor girl, she must be scared to death.

In the second week of December professor Snape was walking around the Slytherin table, taking names of who would be staying here at Hogwarts for the Christmas holidays. Malfoy and I both signed his list, I heard Hermione, Ron and Harry signed too. This would be the perfect time to get that confession out of Malfoy. I think to myself. Unfortunately, the potion was only halfway done, and we still needed a few ingredients, which we had to steal from Snape's stores.

We decided to steal it in Potions today. Harry and Ron caused a whole distraction while Hermione snuck in and grabbed the ingredients. As soon as class ended, we went to Myrtle's bathroom. "He knew it was me." Harry said as we sat down in the cubical. "I could tell." He continues as Hermione put the new ingredients in. "It'll be ready in a fortnight." Hermione stated. "Snape can't prove it was you." Ron added, making me think Ron might not be that bad after all. I blanked out the rest of their conversation, shaking my head at the thought. 

A/N: Sorry it's shorter than usual I just have to write exams now. Love y'all
