I walked around the empty halls alone. My bare feet felt cold against the stone floor of Hogwarts. I felt almost safe but something nagged at me. It was like when your at a friend's house and you know your only safe if you behave. I heard something slither across the floor behind me. I looked behind me and saw a large snake slithering towards me. I looked at it but didn't fear it like I normally would. I knelt down and it slither over.
"Hey Nagini." I said running my hand against her cold scales. Then I saw a women with messy black hair. They sat sadly behind bars in her black dress. Nagini. A snake in a cage. I then came back to the halls of Hogwarts. There I was sitting on the floor. Nagini was curled up next to me as I read a book on blood magic. I began to hear footsteps approaching. I looked up and saw Tom walking towards me. I stood up and he walked right up to me smiling. Something looked almost hidden by his smile. I looked down at Nagini who still laid asleep on the floor. Looking back at Tom everything blurred and I woke up.
For some odd reason my waist and lips felt weird. My hips felt like they'd be grabbed and my lips. Well I don't know to be honest. I was like something was pressed up against them. I assumed that at some point I had rolled onto my stomach and my face had been buried in my pillow and my blanket had been wrapped around my waist at some point.
Seems legit.
Tom sat in the chair by the window.
"Took you long enough." Tom said looking at the window. I went to responded with did I miss something but no sound came out. Tom turned around to look at me. "What got nothing to say?" He asked walking over to me. I went to say something but again nothing came out. Tom's eyes became wide. I was mute not permanently but still mute. This has happened once before this could take a bit to fix. Joy to the world I have classes. I'm royally in need of help. What to do? I know how to fix this...but my classes are going to be difficult."What are you gonna do about your classes?" Tom asked sitting at the end of my bed. I shrugged no talking is a pain. I grabbed a notebook and pencil from my desk. Writing Notes joy to the world. Are you still mad it me? I wrote down on a page before showing it to Tom.
"Sort of why?" Tom answered. I let out a sigh of frustration.
"Why does it matter if I'm still mad with you?" Tom asked laying backing on my bed.
Well I was hoping I'd have one less thing to worry about today. I wrote.
Tom laughed "Sorry nope." I stood up and set Tom's Diary in my desk.
"Don't feel like going into my diary right now." Tom said sitting up.
I stood there looking at him.
"Ugh fine." Tom said "but we should stop by Dumbledore's office."
I nodded in understanding.
He disappeared and I quickly got dressed. Once again when I opened the drawer I found myself staring at his diary. I couldn't explain why for some reason I always found myself just staring at it in the drawer. Something about it seemed well I don't know exactly..addicting? No well I don't know.
"You're doing it again, Mint." Said Tom appearing and grabbing my waist from behind. I flinched standing up straight. My face burned so I probably blushing. Oddly enough something about it seem familiar.
"Mint you okay?" Tom asked. I turned my head. "Hmm." Tom let go off my hips. I grabbed his diary and turned around just in time for him to grab my hips. I flinch and my back arches my face burning. I slapped him with his diary. Which hit for double damage.
His cheek was still red when we reached Dumbledore's office.
"Do I want to know?" Dumbledore asked gesturing to the large red mark on his cheek.
"I don't think so." Tom said seeming ashamed. Who knows why.
"So why are you two here?" He asked.
"She's now Mute Mandriff." Tom said poking my cheek smiling. I crossed my arms as he continued to poke my cheek.
"I see. I'll have Kyle pulled from potions class to make a cure, until then you will have to wait." Dumbledore said.
Nathan isn't going to like that I mouthed.
"I know." Dumbledore snickered. Tom looked confused and that was just fine. There was no way I could explain
everything to Tom without explaining that Nathan is gay first. So skipping the whole explanation for now. Simply because I'm feeling lazy today which is probably because I didn't sleep well."You better explain at some point." Tom said. I nodded I intend to just not right now.
"Is there anything either of you wish to tell me?" Dumbledore asked.
Nope I mouthed.
Tom shook his head.
"Okay then why is half of your face red?" Dumbledore asked.
"She hit me with a book." Tom said rubbing his cheek remembering the pain. I nodded as Dumbledore chuckled. "It's not funny it double hurt darn it!" Tom shouted angrily. He shouted at Dumbledore? He must be really cranky.
"There's no need to shout." Dumbledore said calmly. Dumbledore is okay with being yelled at? Or you know he could just understand Tom's anger or something like that. Who knows what happens in other people's head. Although it would cool to know at times. Not all the time though.
"This is stupid. Why am I even in this situation to begin with?"
I pulled out a piece of paper and jotted down cause you attached a version of yourself to a book. I showed Tom and he glared at me.
"Only for someone else to continue what I started." He explained
You mean the chamber of secrets. Which begs the question how did you learn it's location? I asked Tom in my special no words way.
"Someone accidentally told me the relative location." He explained. Both Dumbledore and I were throughly confused. How could someone accidentally tell someone that? Weird. How did they know about it?
Sorry about the whole missing updates. I'm really really sorry.
