Theodora Riddle {A Harry Potter fanfic} *Completed*

Chapter Ten.

The bell rang and Theodora checked her timetable. Her first subject was Defence Against the Dark Arts with somebody called Gilderoy Lockhart.

Theodora followed Draco and Abigail out of the great hall and they all went to get their books. When they arrived to the classroom they noticed they would be working with the Gryffindors. Draco glared at Harry Potter and his friends. Gilderoy Lockhart appeared and told them to go in. Draco claimed a seat at the back and told his two gormless friends to sit next to him. Theodora went and sat at the front with Abigail.

Gilderoy Lockhart (apparantly) had vanquished vampires and got rid of banshees. He had curly blonde hair and twinkling blue eyes. His white teeth were extremely straight. He walked around the class and stopped at Harry Potter. Harry went red in the face as Lockhart told him about fame. Then Lockhart's eyes settled on Theodora.

"Hello little girl," he said gently. "What's your name?"

"Theodora Riddle, sir." Theodora said with a charming (but fake) smile.

"You're a very cute girl, you could be famous, like me!" Lockhart grinned.

Theodora pretended to blush. "Thank you sir, but I could never be as famous as you!" She smiled (falsely).

Lockhart laughed. "I like you!" he smiled. As soon as Lockhart turned away Theodora began to fake-gag, resulting in Abigail bursting out laughing.

The class begun and it was a joke. The Professor brought in Cornish pixies. The class nearly wet themselves. The bell rang and everyone ran for the door. Granger, Potter and Weasley were left so Lockhart left them to gather up the pixies. On the way out he smiled at Theodora and she smiled back.

Theodora learned one thing in that class: Gilderoy Lockhart was a complete idiot.
