The Challenge

Chapter 23

 I was waken up by bright sun light. I hiss and yank the blanket over my head. I curl up into a ball, trying to push my headache away. Can you even do that? Push your headache away? Oh what ever, I'm still trying. 

   "Are you a cat now?" Tom's voice fills my ears. "A pussy cat."

   I reach up and slap what I thought was his face. "Fuck off."

   "That wasn't nice," Tom whines. 

   "I said, 'fuck off.' You ass." I groan and push him away. My head is pounding, I always regret drinking. But you know, yolo. (I had to. Sorry lol)

   "You're such a bitch when you're on a hangover." Tom comments the obvious. 

   "I will rip your fucking balls off so you won't be able to have kids ever if you don't shut up the bloody hell up!" 

   "Okay. I'm tired of, bitch Sapphire." I felt the bed move and Tom was gone. 

   I snuggle my face into a pillow and groan. "My head feels like its been shocked by lighting a gazillion times."

   "You'd die then." I roll over to my other side and made a dying whale sound. "Damn, are you giving birth or something?" Tom asks. 

   "Yes, and it's not your baby." I say with a groan, "I fucked your evil twin brother."

   "Evil twin brother? Really?" I didn't reply. I felt my stomach flip and I jump out of Tom's bed. I ran to his bathroom and threw up into toilet. "Oh great." Tom groans and pulls my hair back and out of the way. 

   "Shut the fuck up," I moan and threw up some more. 

   "Told you, you shouldn't have drank all that firewhiskey."

   "You didn't say shit." I flush the toilet and went to the sink to rinse my mouth out. 

   Tom walks out of the bathroom, then comes back with a small bottle. "Drink it. It'll make you sober."

   I take the bottle and looked at it. "This tastes like shit and you know that."

   "Yeah, well it'll sober you up. It won't take the headache away. But you'll be sober and not bitchy and moody." Tom says and pats my head. I slap his hand away and drank the the potion. I cough and scrunch my face. "Well, that wasn't a pretty face." Tom smiles and walks away. I throw the bottle at him, Tom ducks and the bottle shatters against the wall. "Violence is never the solution." 

   I glare at him, "do you really want to keep this up?"

   "That isn't the only thing up," Tom winks. 

   I grab one of Tom's uniform robes and wrap it around me. Since I was only in my underwear and bra. "You're a git." 

   "I love you!" Tom calls out as I walk out of his dorm and went upstairs to mine. 

   I toss the robe onto my bed and went to take a shower. Once I'm done, I put on my clothes. Not caring what I wear. I look into the mirror and saw that I wearing my blue jeans and one of Fred's shirts that I borrowed like a month ago. I walk out of my dorm and went to the Great hall. 

   I sit down next to Val and groan. "My head hurts," I whine and leaned on her. 

   "So does mine. Get off," Val nudges me. 

   I sit up straight and drank some juice. "Did you stay with Fred?" 

   "Yeah," she answers. "I passed put."

   "Still a virgin?" I question. 

   "Yes, I am." Val gives me a look. "Are you?" 

   Tom sits down in front of me, "no. She's having my twin brother's baby."

   Val gives him a weird look, "she isn't prego and you don't have a brother."

   "You never know, she could have killed my brother and buried him. She could be using some charm to hide her baby bump," Tom said. I glare at Tom and threw a piece of pancake at his face. "What was that for?"

   I look away from him and continue to eat. "Are you mad at Tom?" Val questions. I nod once. "What did you do, Tom?"

   "I was just messing around this morning." Tom says and I snorted. "Okay, I was teasing her and all that."

   "She's hungover," Scorpius appears and sits with us. "You should know not to mess with her when she's like that."

   "But it was fun," says Tom. 

   "She's going to give you the silent treatment, you know." Scorpius says to Tom. 

   "No she's not. She loves me too much," i roll my eyes as Tom said that. 

   "What ever," Scorpius sighs. "Have fun trying to get her to talk to you for awhile. What did you say?"

   "She asked me if I wanted to keep this up, being an ass. And I said, that isn't the only thing up." Says Tom.

   Val gives him a look, "that's horrible."

   "What's horrible?" Fred appears out of no where like a ninja and hugs Val from behind. 

   "Get off," Val groans and pushes Fred back. She holds her head. 

   "Girlfriends," Scorpius starts. "Can be so moody. That's why I don't have one."

    Fred snorts, "yeah. That's why you don't have one."

   "Shut up, Fred." Scorpius glares at him. 

-x-

   I jump onto the couch next to Scorpius. "What's up, little brother."

   He looks at me, "go away."

   "But I want to talk to by baby brother!" I whine and rest my head on his shoulder. 

   "Get off, you." He groans. 

   "But you looks sad," I pout. "What's wrong?"

   "Nothing's wrong, Sapphire." He gets up and walks out of the common room. 

   I get up and followed him. "Come on, Scorp!"

   "Nothing's wrong! I told you. Do I look upset?" He questioned. 

   "Yeah."

   "I'm annoyed, by you." he says, "stop following me."

   "Scorpius, pleaseeee. We never talk."

   He gives me a look, "we talk every day."

   "All day 'er day. Scorpius come on! Just talk to me!" I said. 

   "I have nothing to talk about. So leave me alone."

   I huff, "Scorpius. Talk to me. I'm so bored. You were the first person I saw. To tell me something! I can tell when you're in deep thought. So tell me!"

   "Do you always have to know what's going on?" Scorpius asks in annoyance. 

   "Well, you're my brother. And I'm curious."

   "Drop it, alright?" Scorpius says and then walks away. 

   I groan, "fine! Be that way!!" 

   "Why are you yelling at nothing?"

   I turn around to see Val. "I was yelling at Scorpius."

   "Okay..." She gives me a weird look. "Let's go outside? It's snowing."

   I smile widely, "um. Yeah!"
