Locked love

A new day

"ARGHHH!" You groaned as you woke up. The bright glow from the sun was peaking through your royal red curtains in you dorm. You awoke to the same thing every day: Griffindor colors were allover the place, much like your hair, other people snoring or moving around trying to find suitable clothing to start the day, and the small noises from the many pets that lived with their owners.  You rolled out of bed very ungracefully, and started the day. 'Sthhhhhhhh" you snake hissed as it slithered up you bed post. Her name was Espn. You were always found of unusual creatures. She some how made her way around your neck and was now right in you face. Espn's eyes reminded you of the clear water you had seen in the traveling books. She was a wonder to everyone because she would only listen to you and no one else, and they way she looked. She was black with grey streaks.  You put her down carefully and she went straight into your school bag. " Y/n! can you help me with this potions question? I have no idea what Snape's asking."  *sigh* " yeah sure, whats the question about?" " something about mixing Wolfsbane with Marsh Marigold?" " Oh that's easy, this mixture would fuse together to create  a massive glob of mud, moss, mold, and parts of animal carcasses." you said with a straight face. Becca, the girl who asked you the question, looked confused, but took your word for it. 

As usual, you stumbled down to breakfast alone. You were comfortable with the silence, but sometimes wished that you had a real friend to speak to. Yes, everyone was nice to you and respected your space, but all you wanted was someone to care about you. Espn was always there for you when you ran to lake to weep of how lonely you were.She was only true companion. Your parents offered you no support what so ever. They were having a custody battle and you were in the middle of it. at the moment you were staying with your Aunt Catherine. She was a witch like you, but she was the only one in the family who knew about the wizarding world except you. You barely saw her because of all the school work you did. Back to breakfast , as you sped walked down the long hallway, you could smell the pumpkin bread and coffee, that's why you loved Hogwarts.The smell of the food always made you happy. You quickly ate breakfast  and headed to library. it was your favorite place besides the forbidden forest. " Good Morning Y/n." the staff and students greeted. You replied politely and slipped to the back. Looking through the rows of the shelves, you made sure that no one else was back there with you. Finally you made it to the place you were looking for: It was a large shelf with leather bond books resting on it in a miscellaneous way.You searched for an old, ratty book. " Aha!" you whispered in delight.  You tapped on it four times and gave a tug. You waited for a second, and heard the regular,almost silent creaking of a hidden door to your right. You gave a small squeak of excitement and headed through the ancient door. 

you didn't  notice the small footsteps of a certain blonde following you......
