A Thousand Years

Chapter one

i rolled out of my bed before my curly messy black hair fell over my tired multicolored eyes. i looked outside the window to see hogwarts. it was my third year as a student and my dads didnt really like it when i left but thats okay. they have nothing to worry about. no one notices me anyway.

i quickly put on my green robes since i was a slytherin and looked at myself in the mirror. i put my hair in a messy bun frowning. i wasn't like the other girls. i didnt wear makeup, i was petite and my guy friends back home said i was more like them. so i didnt fit in. 

my alarm went off again to tell me breakfast was almost up. so i grabbed my herbology book and ran down the stairs so i wouldnt miss the end of it. on my way i tripped on my shoelaces since im very clumbsy and ended up running right into this weird tree in front of me. it was draco malfoy. and somehow he seemed to know exactly who i was

i kept my eyes down and stared at his shoes since i didnt want to hurt him. when im mad i hurt people so i have to be extra careful

"would you look at that little serena regulus black to weak to look me in the eyes" he snapped at me tand glaring with his icey grey eyes

"s-s-sorry-" i coughed as i got off the ground reaching to pick up my book. but i was quickly kicked back down by his sidekicks crabbe and goyle who were laughing at me while i was so small.

since i was so small that i couldnt do anything but listen to them laugh i curled up and began to ball. if only they knew what i was capable of what i would do to them. then, like a savior, i heard a voice from behind me

"get away from her" it was the william snape, the most prettiest boy at hogwarts. he cast a spell on the three to make them leave, helping me off the ground and handing me my book 

"t-t-t-t-thank you" i murmured, brushing my hair behind my ear insecurely

"your aright" he said, smiling. my eyes met his and we stood there for a second, the world freezing. i was red and all i could feel was butterflies and my heart felt like it was growing an oversized amount. he was stunning. but he couldnt have liked me. i was ugly and boys dont like me like that. my tummy grumbled to remind me where i was off to, so i quickly smiled at him and ran off. 

when i got to the great hall, almost all the food was gone, so i ran to my table to grab some cold toast. im very petite so it only took me a few bites until i was full. but thats okay because we were about to be dismissed anyways.  

when we were told to go to class, i followed the crowd to herbology. i was very smart and was substantial in my studies but all i was useful for was cheating when the rest of my class didnt study. i stood in the back of the class listening about a lecture on the mandrakes. but i was distracted the hole time since draco and his friends were teasing me again. we were instructed to put our earmuffs on so i did just as i was told watching closely so i could learn

but then they came off. draco held my earmuffs above my head and because i was only 4'11 i couldnt reach them. suddenly i heard a scream and then all i saw was black

when i woke up all i felt were strong manly hands wrapped around me and a silky voice calling my name. when i looked up i saw william snape looking back at me with a face full of worriedness

"are you okay?" he asked me protectively not letting me go yet

"y-y-y-y-yes" i said and looked around. no one was there but i could see blood on the ground and then i looked down at williams hand. his nuckles were red. i looked up at him, my multicolored orbs widening in shock "did you-"

"yes" he interrupted putting his finger over his mouth "they hurt you" he told me "i had to"

"t-t-thank you" i said looking back down "you didnt have too" i told him "im not worth that"

"of course you are" he said leaning close to me "you're worth everything"
