Damage Control

RAVEN

              I had to do damage control with Harry and well it was hard because everyone kept saying behind my back or to my face that I was a "slut" and a "whore" which well I wasn't I didn't sleep around I only had been with Draco so I turned around to these buffoons and said "Wish it was you right? You didn't have the guts to be recognized by me?" and that usually would shut them up of course Draco was getting high-fives from several boys for the unwanted attention they tell him things like "Was she good in bed" or "Was the experience worth it" of course blame Pansy for all of this her and her jealousy but I'm actually thrilled about her punishment though Uncle Severus is making her clean the Hospital Wing bedpans without magic for two months I guess it sucks if you attack Uncle Severus favorite person in the whole world sucks to be Pansy then. I had my friends Ginny and Hermione helping me through everything even Neville was being like a brother to me Ron had to be there for Harry though he did talk to me concerning class lessons and homework but stayed close by Harry the rest of the time I knew I ruined any chance there was with Harry I couldn't deal with him hating me but I made the bed now I must sleep in it. I ignored the wolf whistles from the boys and the snide remarks from the girls it didn't help when my own boyfriend was developing a big ego from the attention saying things that were exaggerated I guess he was getting a laugh out of it but I was alerted to the fact he said it to some boys and Harry with Ron heard it and well they got into a heated exchange Hermione and Ginny was relaying the fight to me in great detail I guess Harry does care still but I couldn't do anything about it I focused on the third task with tutoring by Uncle Severus I'm quite handing with my wand but my strength is with no wand he mentioned the powers I inherited from my mother has been waiting to breakout and from the task with the dragon it was evident it would continue onward but he warned me that using too much would overexerted my body so I had to pick and choose when to use them I admire he acts more like a dad to me than anything no wonder he took great pleasure in punishing Pansy for her pushing me down the stairs because no one is to lay a hand on me. I walked up to Gryffindor Common Room from the lesson to find Harry staring at the fireplace I guess he had been there for a long while I saw everyone else was gone to bed perhaps I said "You know if you stare at it anymore it won't talk back to you" he turned and saw me there perhaps two feet from him he got up he said "Well, at least talking to it would be improvement" a decent conversation between us that was breaking the ice I said "I should go to my room" I turned to go he said "Raven" I stopped I turned to see him motioning me to sit on the couch so I did the awkwardness was hard for both of us I said "You must hate me" he said "What do you mean about that?" I said "Well everyone makes jokes that I'm Gryffindor Slut or Whore or whatever word they like to call me" he said "I don't think you are one Raven, you're not Pansy Parkinson" I said "I don't want to be her either not after I punched the living daylights out of her" he said "I heard about that she deserved it for pushing you down the stairs" he chuckled about that I said "I heard what you did earlier about fighting Draco? Why did you do it Harry?" he said "It wasn't right for what he was saying about you and boasting about it to the guys around him the things he said I could never picture you doing it" I am curious as to what these "things" meant I said "Harry, what did he say exactly?" he said "That you and him well.. don't make me utter it" I went and touched his temple with my hands he said "Raven what are you?" I said "I can read minds Harry just tell me in your mind so you don't have to utter it out loud". I read his mind and let my hands go I turned away red I was so angry Harry took my hand trying to calm me down he said "Raven look at me" I turned to him I was holding back tears but one fell from my face I said "I'm stupid Harry, to think he actually cared for me but turns out I'm just a pretty face that he took advantage of but I'm not weak because one thing about it if I'm suppose to be this Gryffindor Slut what makes him a Slytherin Dick? Or Slytherin Whore as well" he wiped tears from my face he said "What are you going to do about it?" I said "Well, Draco is going to be in serious trouble, trouble that leaves a mark and I may involve Peeves in it since I haven't done a prank in awhile" he said "Raven, don't do anything rash" seeming concerned about me is sweet I said "I'm going to bed Harry" I got up and left him there I would love to had kiss him but I had revenge on my mind and I needed to sleep so I can plot Draco's demise and it will be bittersweet.
