The Half-Blood Princess

Chapter 2

Margret's pov.(Sevy)

The next time I wake up I was shaking badly and take quick wobbly steps to the little bathroom that was connected to mine. I don't know how long I stayed there throwing up but soon it was nothing but dry heaves and I was still shaking badly. I rest my head against the cold wall next to me and start to fall back asleep. I jerked awake when I feel someone pick me up and start to carry me somewhere. "What a troublesome girl, I can't believe she fell asleep there." A male voice says and I couldn't put a name to the voice all I know was that my fear of being hurt spiked and I pushed against the person holding me making them drop me. I rush away from them so my back was pressed against the wall as I looked them over only to realize that it was Snape who had been holding me and he looked mad. I flinch away from him as he walks towards me his hand raised as if to hit me. I closed my eyes not wanting to see his face when his hand made contact and shivered a little but nothing ever came. I open my eyes slowly to see Snape standing there confused and he gently places his hand on my forehead as if to check my temperature.

"It's almost time for breakfast. Get dressed I'm going to take you to see the school nurse before you eat." He says and leaves me alone confused as to why he hadn't hurt me. I had pushed him, might have even hurt him and he didn't hurt me. I take a fast shower and change into my uniform that made me feel very uncomfortable in. I put my bag full of things on my shoulder for what I needed for class and pull on my skirt as I walk out of my room. Snape was sitting behind his desk and he looked up at me. I couldn't meet his eyes and fidget a little, pulling at the bottom of my skirt trying to put myself at ease. "Come alone Margret." Snape says and I follow him silently to the nurses office that I had been to once when I fist got here. I look up at the kind nurse Madam Pomffrey looks over us. "Margret was ill this morning and she still looks pale. Please take a look at her before sending her to the great hall." Snape says and he turns leaving me alone with her. She smiles kindly at me and I give her a weak smile before walking over to the bed that she was standing by. It didn't take her long to give me a check up and once she said I was fine I walk to the great hall. I shiver a little and hesitate at the door to afraid to walk in.

I was about to walk into the great hall when I was bumped into. "I'm so sorry." A girl with frizzy hair says and she was wearing red on her tie. It's ok, I shouldn't have been standing in front of the door like I was the only one going to use it. I write out and show her. She smile kindly at me before frowning a little. "You don't seam mean like all the other Slytherin's I've meet." She says and I tilt my head confused. "I'm Hermione by the way what's your name?" She says as we walk off to the side so no one else will run into us. My name is Margret but I liked to be called Sevy. I show her the note and she smiles at me. "Hermione is that slytherin bugging you?" A red haired boy asks as he walks over with another boy who had black hair and glasses. "No Ron she isn't. I ran into her and she acts as if she doesn't know about the houses here in school." Hermione says as she gives the boy a scolding look. I was suddenly uncomfortable with these people and backed away from them more until my back was pressed against the wall. "Are you alright?" The boy with glasses asks and I start to panic a little. I'm fine, I think I'm going to go eat now. I sign quickly and Hermione looks shocked. "Can you talk?" She asked. I was a little shocked to see her sign as well as hear her. No, I'm mute and what are you talking about with the school? I say and the boys look confused. "She's mute. I've never meet a mute witch before. Ohh this is Harry by the way." Hermione says and Ron frowns a little.

I should go eat, maybe we can talk later? I say and she nods her head before pulling the boys behind her into the great hall. I walk over to the green table and sit at the very end near the door so I could get out quickly if there were any problems. I was eating a little, I still wasn't used to having this much food around or eating 3 times a day so I tried not to eat to much, even throw my appetite had grown since I had been here. "What did those Gryffindor's want with you?" A boy asks as he sits next to me. I realized that it was Draco and I shift a little so I was just about to fall off the bench. "Are you going to answer me?" Draco asks and I nod my head before quickly writing. We ran into eachother and they were confused about me not knowing about the school. Draco reads over my writing before giving a small sigh. "So your a mudblood then?" He asks and I shake my head no as I flip throw the pages in my notebook until stopping at the one from when I asked Dumbledore the same question. Draco looked shocked before shaking his head a little. "What year are you any way? You look to old to be a 1st year." He says as he takes a drink of whatever it was he was drinking. 3rd year, I still don't understand much about the schools like why there are 4 different houses. I write and shake my head before looking back down at my food that sudenly didn't look to good.
