Flames ( HP Fire Series #1)

19. Autumn is crazy!

Autumn's p.o.v.

I walked to the Dark Arts classroom, my body feeling especially light. I awoke to a great mood today, humming cheerfully as I approached Will.  I forgot about his betrayal and could only think about my love towards him.

"Someone sure is in a good mood." Will's low musical voice teased and my heart lifted at the sight of his playful smirk. 

"Hey! Love you!" I kissed him softly, giggling at Rose's horrified face.

"Calm down, princess! I'm here all day, we could kiss all we want!" He said, winking at the girls.

"But I want to kiss you now! Surely I can't wait till class finishes!" I whined and planted another kiss on his face. 

"As much as I'd like you to kiss me, Professor Gemini's here." He chuckled lightly.

"Damn her!" I grumbled, facing the front while the light feeling left me suddenly, my head buzzing and my thoughts blanked out of a sudden. I felt unusually clear except for a dull throb on my head. Ignoring the pain, I focused on her voice, flipping my textbook and scribbling random notes. Over the table, Rose shot me a worried look and I glanced at her, bewildered.

"What's wrong?" I mouthed.

"Nothing. You seemed weird just now. Never mind, you're normal again." She mouthed back.

 Professor Gemini droned on about Shield Charms and I recalled all that I've read on them and experimented different wand movements to strengthen the charm. 

Finally, the bell rang and we dashed outside when I felt light-headed again. It was as if I were floating and my vision was slightly blurred. I felt my legs leading me towards Will when my instincts screamed for me to turn back. 

"Come on, he's your boyfriend! What's wrong with you?" A voice said in my head. I quickened my pace and threw myself excitedly on him.

"I missed you!" I said, kissing him eagerly as he pulled me closer, planting small kisses on my cheek, my collarbone, my neck and his hands slipped under my robes. I felt the cool feeling of his fingers that skimmed my back lightly. I shivered pleasantly at his soft touch when Rose appeared.

"Aut! Come on, I need to tell you something!"

"Can't that something wait? Can't you see that Will and I are busy?" I groaned.

"Now! Come on!" She dragged me with surprising strength outside the Transfiguration classroom.

Rose's p.o.v

Autumn was acting all weird this morning. She hummed and sang like nothing happened and I was seriously worried.

"What was that? Even if you're acting, it's too fake, Aut! You aren't that flirty!" I told her sternly.

"What makes you think that I'm acting? I love Will! He's my everything! If you excuse me..." Autumn said heatedly and attempted to walk away.

"Aut, have you forgotten yesterday?" Hazel asked carefully.

"Of course not! I remember that all of you were being idiots! Will betraying me, that's absurd!" She let out a laugh and Aurora glanced at us worriedly.

"Are you alright? You're acting so weird." I said.

"Oh shush! I'm perfectly fine and today's a great day! I've got to find Will, see ya!" She winked like a maniac and rushed away.

"That was pretty weird! D'you think Will drugged her or something?" Ro asked and I shook my head.

"We haven't got any proof!"
