SNOW FALLS ALL AROUND ME AND LANDS IN MY CURLY DARK HAIR. The four of us make our way towards the Three Broomsticks. Whilst they engage in conversation, I stay silent. I need to do something, plant something. I need to give someone something.
Draco had suggested it last week, and managed to get it. I told him I'd give it to Dumbledore whilst remaining in a disguise. But he said it could have a risk of my identity being revealed, which is why I need someone else to give it to him instead.
The Cursed Necklace is hidden by my ability, it's hiding in a hidden pocket of my coat. Harry's hand holds mine and he gently squeezes it. "Jupiter?" I hum at his words, looking at him. "Are you alright?" I nod my head at his words.
"Yes, sorry, I'm in my own world." I push a curl from my face and we walk inside of The Three Broomsticks. I spot Draco and the two of us lock eyes. I slightly shake my head to say 'Not yet', and make my way towards a table with the other three.
I morph my coat for an instant, allowing the necklace to morph with my jumper. I return my coat to normal and slip my arms out of it. I put it on the back of my chair. "If you three will excuse, I'm going to the restroom." I announce and walk past the table, passing Draco whose eyes trail over me.
As I walk inside of the bathroom I quickly morph my appearance to look like a first year. I shrink a few inches. My dark curls grow and lighten into blonde braids. My teeth go ragged and braces litter over them whilst freckles dot over my nose.
I pretend to be in a hurry and crash into someone as I walk inside. "Oh, goodness! I'm so sorry!" A girl's voice greets me and I land on the floor with a thud, the necklace in the box which is covered in wrapping purposely falling next to me.
Staring down at me is Katie Bell, and she quickly helps me stand. It will have to be her. "I'm so sorry, are you hurt anywhere?" She asks as she looks over me before squatting down to help me grab the box containing the necklace. I hold my wrist in my hand, my eyes welling with fake tears.
I wince and force my wrist to look broken. Katie fumbles as she looks at my wrist. Tears slip down my face and I sniffle. "I-I'm sor-ry for b-bumping into you." I hiccup out and she stares down at me softly with shock and panic in her eyes.
Katie tries to comfort me and I hold my wrist. "It looks broken, I'm so sorry." She apologises profusely and I wipe my nose with my sleeve. "It would be best if madam Pomfrey looks at it." She says and moves to give me the box, not before glancing down at it.
"What this?" She asks me, staring at the wrapping in her hand. "I-I was going to give it to Professor Dumbledore as a present, but I don't think I'll have time now." I burst into tears and she tries to comfort me. "It's okay, I'll give it to Dumbledore. Is there a note inside to say it's from you?" I nod my head and wipe my eyes.
