You felt your eyes sting as you stepped out of the Headmaster's office. The rage grew inside your chest and made it through your eyes. A couple of teardrops made it to your cheeks but you cleaned them immediately, and forced yourself to stop, under no circumstances would you let Headmaster- joke of man- Black make you cry. But the echo of his words didn't leave your head. Dangerous he called you.
Before you knew it you made it to the great hall, no tears on your face, just a numb feeling in your chest.
Unfortunately, your friends were waiting for you in the central hall. You forgot you had plans to go to Hogsmeade that afternoon.
Sebastian caught your eye and waved at you "MC over here!"
You took a deep breath and put on a smile, you didn't want to spoil everyone's day. As you got closer you heard them laughing.
Poppy smiled at you "There you are, what took you so long?" she asked.
"I was in my room of Requirements" you lied.
"That's odd," said Ominis "I went and looked for you, but you weren't there"
Your heart raised for a moment "I- I was feeding my beasts. I'm sorry I didn't hear you go in" he stayed quiet, you preyed he didn't check the vivariums.
"Don't worry about it, darling. Let's go" he answered and you were able to breathe again.
"If we hurry we can catch up with the others" Poppy led the way out of the castle.
"They already left?" as if you weren't feeling bad enough.
"Well Amit was eager to make it to the book shop" Poppy gave a little jump to the last stairs "Imelda needs her broom repair but you know her beef with Mr Weekes so she's sending Garreth in"
"Is she actually trusting her broom to Garreth?" you asked amazed
"No" answered Ominis "That's why she begged Nati to go in with him"
"Which means that gives us enough time to beat them to Honeydukes before Weasel finishes all the Esploating Bonbons" Sebastian pulled Ominis's arm forcing him to walk faster.
"Stop rushing me, Sebastian! I don't want to sweat" replied Ominis. Usually, his complaints about sweating were exaggerated but today he was right, it was past noon, and the warm days of summer were already there, it was hot enough without a full uniform.
"Ominis we have to hurry. It's the last day of school, everyone wants to restock their sweets supplies for the summer" Sebastian complained and didn't stop pushing Ominis.
"Why do you care? Will be here all summer" he murmured a quick Depulso and pushed Sebastian five ft away from him.
He almost lost his valance but walked back to you as soon as the spell faded off.
"Yes but I finished mine last night and I need it to last till next week"
"Unbelievable. That explains the wraps all over the floor, it's like living with an animal..." Ominis started yapping about how unbearable it was to have Sebastian as a roommate.
"I believe it's a new record" you mocked. Poppy walked next to you and laughed.
"When was the last time they had this argument? Two days ago?"
"One and a half. They're like an old married couple" you bought laughed while you listened to them.
"It's MY side of the room..."
"That doesn't count if I have to breathe the same air!"
"Are they almost at the part where Ominis complains about Seb misplacing his books?" she asked you between giggles.
