Love From The Soul (Severus Snape x OC)

Chapter 8

Back in my quarters Dempsey and I thought about the possibility of Snape even accepting to help at all. He didn't seem all that enthusiastic about it, which didn't surprise me at all, but I had to keep hope that he would accept.

 ''What do you think will happen if he refuses to help you?'' Asked Dempsey worriedly.  ''I dunno, I die and whatever danger that is coming will fucking kill everything probably.'' I respond with a very cynical tone. Dempsey cringes slightly at that.

''Uh....sure...but no really?'' He retorts. I simply lift my eyes to look at him with a plain gaze and didn't respond. ''Oh....you're serious..'' He finally says, in a sad tone. I sigh, but nod slightly to indicate an affirmation.

 ''I mean, that's my theory, but no one can be sure, we don't even know what this curse does for sure, other than hinder my full magical potential.'' I say while shrugging.

''Well the git better help you, I'm not losing a friend because his heart is too cold to feel sympathy, I don't trust him much.'' Dempsey says with contempt. ''Don't trust him to accept to help me, trust Dumbledore to make him.'' I simply respond. To that, my friend simply smirks. ''Sometimes I think you belonged in Slytherin.''

 I feign offence. ''Hey..! I may belong in Hufflepuff, but that doesn't mean I don't have a brain, or can't have traits from other houses. Imagine how one dimensional I would be if that was the case.'' He laughs, and I do as well.

I recalled the good times me and Dem used to have in our youth at Hogwarts. We got in all sorts of trouble, but most times we got away with it. To this day I don't quite know how, but it was a lot of fun none the less. The fact that we both had good grades probably got us way lower punishments as well, but I don't count on that too much. One thing we loved to do was sneak in each other's common room. So I knew the Slytherin common room almost as much as mine. We borrowed each others extra house robes so we wouldn't be suspected too much. Sometimes it fooled everyone, sometimes students noticed but didn't care too much since that wasn't when we caused trouble. However when it came to Slytherin, we had to be more careful since Anastasia Zuman was also in that house. 

''Hey Alzenia, remember when we made theses huge parties in the Hufflepuff common room? Everyone had a blast! Not to mention you're the best DJ.'' My friend says. I grin widely. ''Well I absolutely love music, and let's just say there are some secrets as to how I get my music that I can never reveal.'' I respond with an air of pride.

 ''Hey! No fair! I actually wanted to learn that spell.'' He says in childish indignation. ''I never said I wouldn't teach you the spell if you want to learn it, just that I can't tell you how I get my exclusive songs.'' I say in a teasing manner. 

''Well I would absolutely love to learn it if you would be willing to teach me.'' He says, excited. I smile and tell him it's no problem. ''By the by.....where did you get that spell from anyway? I've never seen it in any book.'' He asks. ''Actually, I made the spell, it's an Alzenia exclusive that one.'' I respond with once again, some amount of pride. 

Callidus' eyes widened. ''Whoa for real? That's incredible! Did you make anything else?'' I pretend to think deeply before giving him a response. 

''Well I made the music spell, which is what we have been talking about, I also made the musical sound-wave spell that you saw me cast against that monster last time, and the musical shield spell that you've yet to see me cast.'' His eyes brightened to the idea of learning even more cool spells. ''Those are the relevant ones I can think about.'' 

''Relevant ones huh...so you made other ones? Tell me about them!'' I hesitate. ''Well the others are not yet perfected, so I can't exactly learn you them yet.'' I half lied. However, he seemed satisfied with my explanation so he didn't push it further, to my relief.
