Chapter Twenty

I'm now headed to Defense Against the Dark Arts with Draco and the others. We got a new professor considering that the old one died. The new Professor was called; Gilderoy Lockhart... and for some reason, most of the girls my age and slightly above were crazy for him. 

I don't get the big deal about him, sure he did a lot of cool things, but he's ugly as hell, and too self centered. He has so many photos of himself and he brags too much about himself. 

I look over at Susan who is sitting next to Granger and they both have hearts in their eyes. Lockhart starts handing out a quiz that we have to do. I look at the questions and...

"What are these questions?" Draco voices my thoughts in a hushed voice.

"What is Gilderoy Lockhart's favorite color? What is Gilderoy Lockhart's biggest ambition?" I read the questions out loud.

"You have thirty minutes! Begin...now!"

I answer the questions to the best of my ability,seeing as I never bothered to read his books since they were always about his ridiculous adventures and nothing educational at all

After the thirty minutes are up he comes around and collects the quizzes.

"Tsk, tsk. Barely any of you remembered that my favorite color is lilac. But Miss Granger knew that my biggest ambition is to rid the world of evil. Good girl." I roll my eyes as I look over to her, she looks like...what was the term Norman taught me? Oh! A love sick puppy! That's what she looks like! I facepalm at her, just as Ray does the same, making it seem like we were in sync. He glares over at me, I look at him in confusion.

"What?" I ask. He just glares at me and looks away. Weird.

As the lesson goes on, his attention suddenly lands on me. It's weird, but I'm just going to ignore it for now.

"I don't like him." Draco whispers to me, motioning at Lockhart.

"I don't think anyone does." I snort softly.

"Are you sure about that?" He points to the many girls on the other side of the classroom who are drooling not-so-subtly over him.

"Most sane people don't like him." I correct myself.

"I'm surprised you and the tangerine are the only ones not affected."

"Maybe she doesn't like boys" I suggest with a shrug.

Meanwhile

Emma's POV

He is the textbook definition of pedophilia right now. I gag as I get my plastic bag ready, Norman sighing from beside me. Why would anyone like him? He's so... ugly.

Time skip

Y/n's POV

It is now the end of DADA and I am on my way to the library's restricted section when a Gryffindor girl with vibrant orange hair and a massive antenna approaches me.

"Who are you again?" I ask in annoyance, eyeing her up and down.

"I want to be friends." Oh. It's Emma.

"I asked who you are, not what you wanted."

"You know who I am," She scoffs with a light smile. "And I want to be your friend."

"And I don't want to be friends with you," I retort with a strained smile. "Now get lost. I have somewhere to be and I don't have time for this."

"Oh come on, please? I promise you won't regret it!"

"I'm already regretting indulging you in this conversation, so I seriously doubt that."

"Hey! I'm not that bad!"

"You are. Now leave me alone so I can get going."

"Fine, but I'm not giving up!"

"Give up. It'll save you a lot of energy."

I finally reach the courtyard where Susan is waiting for me. I quickly rush over to where she is sitting on a bench.

"Hey Susan, sorry I was late, I was held up by something annoying." More like someone annoying.

"It's fine, don't worry about it. Besides, we have more important things to discuss."

"Like what?"

"Your crush!"

"Oh yeah..."

"Well, go on! Who is it?" I take a deep breath preparing myself to say who it is.

"It's Norman."
