Calypso Night Book 1

Chapter 7

AN~ The drama begins. Sorry, it's a little late. I've been babysitting like crazy for my mom and aunt. Anyways heres chapter 7. Enjoy.

"Percy? What are you doing?!" A voiced screeched.

Percy and I pulled apart to see Penelope Clearwater, one of the Ravenclaw prefects, looking at us in shock which promptly turned into rage.

"What are you doing with her?!" She screeched again.

"I don't see how it is any of your business Penelopy," Percy said.

"It matters because you and I are dating!" She yelled at him

"What are you talking about Penelope?" Percy asked.

"We were dating last year." She said.

"We were dating. Until you cheated. We broke up and I have moved on. You need to as well." Percy told her.

"You don't break up with me, I break up with you. So we are still together and you are the one cheating now." She said pompously.

"That is not how that works," I spoke up.

"What!?" She screeched.

"That's not how it works. If he broke up with you because of what you did then you can't spit that back in his face and do the same thing." I stated.

"Who the hell are you?" She asked.

"This is my girlfriend Calypso Night. Calypso this is my ex-girlfriend Penelope Clearwater." Percy introduced.

"Nice to meet you," I said.

"Not so nice to meet you, you boyfriend stealer." She sneered.

I was tacked aback. Percy glared at her and was about to say something when I spoke up.

"I'm not a boyfriend stealer because he broke up with you at the end of last year. We got together at the beginning of this year. So please do not go throwing around names when you can't even get the facts straight." I told her.

"Who do you think you are spouting facts at me. I'm a Ravenclaw, your nothing but a little Hufflepuff." She said.

Percy winced when she said that. My face grew red as I started to lose my patience. No one insulted my house.

"I'll have you know that while Hufflepuffs can be pushovers we are fierce when it comes to protecting one another and the people we care about. So if I were you I would hold your tongue about Hufflepuffs." I stated.

By now Percy was holding onto me keeping me from pounding her face in. She glared at me.

"What could a little Hufflepuff do to me? Please, you are pathetic." She sneered.

By now all I could see was red.

"Calypso no," Percy warned.

"Percy let go of me," I told him trying to break from his arms.

"How about no." He said before picking me up. "10 points from Hufflepuff for almost starting a fight. 10 points from Ravenclaw for antagonizing another student."

She was quiet after that as Percy carried me away from her. He didn't put me down for like 20 minutes.

"Percy you can let me down now," I said.

"Are you sure?" He asked.

"Yes. I'm still beyond mad but I'm not going to do anything irrational." I told him.

He put me down and I stayed still trying to finish calming myself down. Percy watched me for a moment in silence.

"I'm sorry." He whispered.

My head snapped up and I looked at him with confusion "For what?" I asked.

"For taking house point from you. And for Penelope." He said.

"Percy. You are a prefect I do not expect special treatment just because we are together. And as for Penelope, I do not hold you accountable for what she says and does." I told him.

I put my hand under his chin and made him look at me. I leaned up and kissed him in reassurance.

"I am sorry though." He said as we pulled away.

"You have nothing to be sorry about Percy. You can't control what she does. Therefore it is not your fault." I told him again.

"Alright." He finally said.

"Now let's make one thing clear. Do not treat me with any special treatment just because I am your girlfriend. You are a prefect. You abide by the rules. You've worked so hard for this. Don't lose it because of me." I told him.

"Are you sure?" He asked.

"Positive," I said with a smile. "Now it's 4 minutes to curfew and I need to get to bed."

He smiled and gave me a small goodnight kiss before walking off to finish his prefect duties. I shook my head at him before quickly running to the Hufflepuff house. I quickly tapped the barrels outside of the house before running in with one minute to spare. I sat down on the couch by the fire and caught my breath.

"Where have you been?" I heard Phoebe ask.

"Hiding from you," I said.

She laughed and said "Seriously. It's one minute to curfew and you're just getting in. Were you with Percy?"

"Kind of," I said.

I then proceeded to tell her everything that happened.

"That Cow!" She screeched.

"Quiet Phoebe. You're going to wake someone up." I hissed at her.

"Sorry." She whispered. "But I can't believe that cow. The nerve of her. Trying to take Percy back." She hissed "I ought to give her a piece of my mind."

"No Phoebe. You can't solve everything with violence. The only reason I tried was because she seriously pissed me off. No one disrespects Hufflepuff." I said.

"Damn right." She said.

We both laughed and headed up to bed. We shared a couple of stories with our roommates before we all laid down and went to sleep dreaming of this school year.

AN~Alright that was chapter 7, Sorry it was on the short side. When I first wrote this chapter it was way different. I ended up scrapping it because I just can't do that to them. Anyways, hope you enjoyed chapter 7. I promise I will put the next chapter up next Tuesday. Hope you all have enjoyed the book so far see you next week ~Amala
