Mischief Managed

This Is Where We Part Ways

Quinn's POV

We got off the train and I hugged my sister. She hugged back and I knew she didn't want me to leave her side, but I had to. She kissed Fred before walking in with Luna and I didn't understand why she was always that way. She gets too down on herself and I never know why. I walked in with the twins. My hand entangled with George's. We walked into the Great Hall. I looked over to see her not eating. Honestly, I couldn't blame her for it. I mean even after what we've been through, but I need to tell someone and it's not gonna be Fred.
"I'll be back guys, I need to go talk to Professor Dumbledore for a moment." I said and they shook their heads saying they understood. Their mouths were already filled to the brim with mashed potatoes. I still don't know how they can eat all that food, but yolo.
I walked up to Professor Dumbledore getting glares from Professor Snape.
"Professor Dumbledore, my sister hasn't been feeling well since this morning. Is it okay if I take her to the infirmary?" I asked politely.
"I understand, I heard this morning from Professor McGonagall. I'm sorry for your loss and hope it doesn't interfere with your learning." Professor Dumbledore stated.
"Thank you, I really appreciate it." I said walking over to Blair.
"Sis, I'm gonna go to the infirmary and I thought you'd like to come with me?" I asked and she turned to me with a blank look on her face. As if to be a deer caught in the headlights.
"Sure... I need to get out of here anyways." She said and we walked out. "We used to eat dinner with our parents... I miss that." She exclaimed as we walked. Wow... she goes through depression fast. Already at the fourth stage. I'm still between two and three.
"Why won't you eat dinner?" I asked stopping her in the middle of the hall. "Mum and dad used to eat dinner. I remember this one time where they went on a picnic and came back soaked from the rain. Boy was that funny." She stated with that blank look. Her face didn't change from that.
"You need to eat or you will die." I stated and she nodded.
"I know, but it's so hard to eat when you can't. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink." Blair exclaimed and I walked her to infirmary.
"Hello Quinn and Blair... Dumbledore said I might see you two today." Pomfrey said.
"Blair why don't you go see if you can see the stars out the window?" I asked and she walked that way. She looked as if she wasn't mentally here.
"Mrs. Pomfrey... Blair isn't coping well since our parents death this morning. She didn't eat all day and she still won't eat." I stated a bit worried.
"Don't worry Quinn... just slip her one of these nutrition pills in her drink and she won't need to eat that day if she doesn't want to." Pomfrey said.
"Thanks Mrs-" I was cut off by Blair.
"Mum and me used to look at the stars most nights... and now she's gone." Blair exclaimed.
"Thanks again Mrs. Pomfrey. I'll come to you if something happens." I stated and walked her out. She's not mentally okay. I walked her back to her table and cleared her spot for her and she put her head down.
"I'll see you afterwards." I said and walked over and sat in front of Fred and George. Behind them was the wall and behind me you could see the other tables.
"What's wrong with Blair?" Fred asked worrily.
"She's just tired from all the crying and yelling and traveling." I stated and he nodded.
"What's Malfoy doing?" After George said that I turned to see Draco throwing something at my sister who was mentally unstable. She would peek up to see them throwing stuff at her and I could see tears. No one picks on my twin sister, but me. I walked over to Malfoy.
"Quit it before I shove that turkey down your shirt." I said.
"Make me." He stated firmly and threw more of what seemed to be mnms at her. I picked up a slice of ham and slapped him hard with it. I then did it again, but the opposite way. I then picked him up by the collar and dragged him over to my sister.
"Luna, am I going bonkers?" Blair asked towards Luna.
"You are just as sane as I am." Luna replied.
"Malfoy, apologize. Now." I exclaimed and he sighed.
"I'm so sorry you're a bit insane, but I can't help you." He stated and the whole room was silent which means Fred heard every word.
"Malfoy, you little jacka**. I'm gonna kick your mother f***ing a**. Do you hear me you little a** wipe." I was so suprised with Fred's word choice. He normally never says a word like that. Fred punched Malfoy ten times before Snape pulled him off of Malfoy.
"Come on! That little sh** head was calling Blair insane. If anyone's insane it's that little d***." Fred exclaimed as Snape dragged him out. This is going to be a long school year.
