Carly felt the blood drain from her face as she turned. The potions master glared at her, and for a moment Carly had forgotten that she was half naked in the potions classroom in the middle of the night. I can imagine this must look bad she opened her mouth to speak, but found trouble formulating words. proff..proffesor I can explain she began, but was cut off harshly Mrs. Elise, although Iam sure you were about to recite a very poorly thought of excuse, students are forbidden to be out of bed in the middle of the night. I expect this much from dunderhead Potter, but from my slytherins I expect and demand better. Detention tomorrow after dinner. NOW OFF TO BED! Carly stormed past him and ran out of the door, heading where she had hoped her dorm was. sucessfully finding it (and making a mental note of its location for the future) she scampered to her bed and fell into a thankfully dreamless sleep, not even bothering to change into pajamas.
The next morning, carly awoke as her dormmates were leaving. She was thankful, they didnt seem to be very friendly, and carly had no interest in making friends anyway. She felt her nerves tense as she thought about her first day. A drink should calm my nerves she thought as she dug deep into her trunk, pulling up a secret door on the bottom right side that revealed her stash of alcohol. Taking out a bottle of bourbon, she sat on the floor and put the bottle to her lips. For as long as Carly could remember, she had been stealing liquor from her muggle "fosters" as she referred to them. They always kept their bar full, but only drank on holidays and special occassions. Carly had begun by stealing sips and refilling the bottles with water, but graduated to stealing whole bottles. Once their liquor collection could no longer support her habit, she began stealing from surrounding liquor stores. No one ever suspected the cute little blonde girl to be a thief or an alcoholic for that matter. Carly didnt believe it was a problem. it controls the demon inside of me.
sufficiantly tipsy Carly replaced the bottle to its hiding place and dressed for class, not caring that she was late for breakfast. As she entered the great hall, people stared. she swore they were whispering about her, but she had liquid courage in her veins as she held her head high and made her way to an empty seat at the very edge of the slytherin table. She felt eyes on her as she filled her plate, and looked towards the staff table to find none other than the potions master staring at her. If looks could kill I'd be six feet under. She quickly looked back to her food and tucked into her breakfast as an owl dropped her schedule onto her plate.
Okay so first period is Potions, of course that would be my luck! second Charms, Third Defense against the dark arts, fourth is a free period before lunch, followed by History of magic and study hall. Carly frowned at her schedule. Im going to need more booze to get through this school year.
