Animagus (Jaeyong)

49

Taeyong was running along the corridors like crazy, where could Herin be at this hour, he knew nothing about the girl. He had no idea if she could tell him the future right away but he needed to know, he needed to know if Jaehyun had survived, he has been sleepless for the last four days, he could barely eat or concentrate on anything, he was crying all the time. Only Taeil knew, he had to, but he kept it to himself as always, and Taeyong felt so stupid for not telling Yuta and Sicheng about his real struggle.

"Taeyong!" he heard a voice that made him stop.

He turned to see headmaster Chen, the man was standing in the middle of the entrance to the great hall.

"I'm in hurry sir," whispered Taeyong.

"I wanted to tell you Jaehyun is back in the castle, the password to the Ravenclaw tower is Skippingchocolatefrog," Chen smiled to himself then tuned around walking to professor Hopkinss.

Taeyong was standing there for a minute processing the words till he jumped up in the air.

He nearly overran two first years when he hurried up the stairs without a moment for a breath. He was totally sweaty when he reached the entrance to the Ravenclaw tower but bumped right into Doyoung.

"Lee Taeyong, what are you doing here, it's getting dark and it's not your corridor," muttered the boy.

"What nonsense is that?" asked Taeyong.

"Go back to your common room or I'll report you to the teaches," the boy straightened.

Taeyong's first instinct was to take out his wand and jinx him but then he turned around abruptly, he remembered the invisibility cloak, so he sped down the corridor all the way to his bedroom, then back, hiding under the silky fabric. He need to be more cautious, but each student slowing him down caused a flood of swearing in his head. Finally he reached Ravenclaw's entrance again, he whispered the password, slid inside, crossed the common room barely avoiding bumping into Doyoung again, but he reached the stairs to the boy's dormitory, then the head boy's door.

He knocked quietly. There was no reaction.

"It's Taeyong," he muttered glancing left and right if no one was here.

The lock crackled and Taeyong felt his heart speeding up. He walked in quickly closing the door behind him, then locking it up with a spell. He turned to see Jaehyun who was very pale, he was lying on the bed looking his way with glittering eyes.

"Don't move," said Taeyong when Jaehyun groaned trying to sit up.

Taeyong threw the invisibility cloak on the floor then jumped to the bed, he sat on the matterss taking Jaehyun's hand then kissing it.

"You're alive," he whispered.

"The same requires to you," muttered Jaehyun in a tired way.

"I was so afraid," whispered Taeyong.

"Come here and cuddle," Jaehyun stretched his hand out so Taeyong laid down next to him cuddling him in his arms. "Don't be mad if I'll fall asleep soon, Madame Becky gave me some potion," whispered Jaehyun his eyelids falling.

"Sleep I'll take care of you," Taeyong kissed his forehead, he cuddled his face in Jaehyun's hair feeling his world was put back together again.

"Renjun!" Hansol shouted is name causing the boy to stop. He wanted to sneak out of the common room to practice flying in the cold air around the stadium.

The winter break was approaching so no matches were planned till the first signs of spring, what was at lest three months from now.

"We need to talk! Put that broom down, it's useless in your hands anyway," said Hansol in a harsh tone.

Johnny who was sitting next to him in an armchair, where they both had the best view on two girls who were hanging up Christmas decorations in the common room, laughed loud.

"It's my broom I can do whatever I like with it," muttered Renjun cuddling it to himself.

"Boy stop playing on my nerves, you're out of the team," Hansol got up.

"What!" shouted Renjun his eyes filling with tears. "Why?"

"Because you're useless and a terrible seeker," said Hansol rolling his eyes to Johnny.

"Hansol! How dumb are you?"  a girl raised her voice and Renjun turned to see Hailey.

"Excuse me?" Hansol straightened.

"If you kick him out of the team you will prove you're really the dumbest student in that school," Hailey stopped next to Renjun her voice calm.

Hansol's face fell when Johnny opened his mouth wide.

"He just needs some practice, he's very talented, he has everything a great seeker needs, and he's twelve, be man enough to teach him, or don't you have anything you can offer your new teammate?" she crossed her hands on her chest.

Renjun was looking from her to Hansol so impressed, not anyone would have the courage to speak up to the big guy, who was not only very popular but also somehow frightening.

Hansol took a deep breath, his face became extremely red.

"Don't move from there little boy, we will have a practice," Hansol turned. "Johnny, get the brooms."

"B-but it's freezing and it can snow any minute," Johnny glanced at the crackling fire in a loving way.

"Johnny get the brooms!" Hansol turned from his friend walking towards his bedroom.

"You will pay for this, both of you," hissed Johnny jumping from the armchair.

Renjun giggled, he couldn't hold back the laugh any longer.

"You're cool," he whispered risking a glance towards Hailey.

The girl always caused a tingling in his insides, he had weird daydreams about pressing his lips to hers, but he would be too embarrassed to confess them to anyone including Taeil.

Even if Taeil would understand he was kissing Vanessa a lot.

"Don't let them bring you down, I've heard you can turn them into ugly rats anytime," Hailey winked to him.

"I'm not..." he lowered his head his cheeks burning.

"There are legends about your magic circling around the castle," whispered Hailey and their eyes met briefly giving him a weird sensation..

"What legends?" he asked.

Thank you for being here for me you're amazing🧡
