The Forbidden Boy

Chapter 14

As Draco and I walked back to class, Harry was the first one to notice.
"There you are. Where the hell did you run off too??" Harry asked pulling me away from Draco.

"Calm down Pottah, she was with me. We weren't far." Draco claimed. Harry looked at us confused.

"You were with Malfoy??" He asked, giving me a harsh look. I looked at him, then back at Draco.

"Yes...yes I was with him. But it wasn't what you think. I just got lost down by the Forbidden Forest, and Draco helped me out of it." I said. Samantha was no where to be seen, so I didn't care what came out of my mouth.

"What where you doing down there anyways?" Harry said. Clearly not giving up.

"Bloody hell pottah, why do you give a damn where she went and why she went there?" Draco stated.

"Because she's my sister!" Harry yelled back at Draco. As soon as he realized what he said, he stepped back from us, in shock. 

"Your sister? Ha! Like anyone would believe that joke." Draco exclaimed, not buying what he said. I gave Harry a look. Why would he just blurt that out? I don't understand, just last week he wasn't even speaking to me!

"Harry! Shut it!" I said hitting him in the chest. "What is wrong with you? Dumbledore told you to not say anything about this!" I said.

"Wait.. so Scarface is right?" Draco said confused. "Your his sister?" He said pointing at me, than at Harry.

"Yes Draco." I said. I really hate my situation right now. I want to run and get out of this mess that Harry caused. He always had a temper. He would always blurt out things in spite.

"But how- your a Coleman and he's a Potter?" Draco asked as he scratched his head trying to wrap his head around this.

"Well you see- he's um my step brother. We're not fully related.." I said as I started to feel small as I saw many heads turn out way. I noticed our groups faces. Some with anger, others with confusions.

"Come on Estella, let's get out of here before things go wrong." Hermione said as she grabbed my arm. I didn't know what else to do but follow her. I couldn't stay there much longer, I didn't know what to say to Draco to make this situation any better, or to Harry. This is all his fault. Whatever happens next, is all because of Harry.

Walking down the halls was the most dreadful thing. I wanted to just run up to my common room and hid out there until this is all over. But I couldn't, I still had a couple of classes left. Everytime I walked down the halls, heads would turn to me with whispers following. 

"That's her brother. I didn't even know she existed." I heard one say. I couldn't do much but look at them. I've always wanted to be noticed, but not like this. As I kept walking, I spotted Luna not much farther than my potions class. 

"Estella!" Luna called out as she waved her hands. I made my way over to her. "How are you? I didn't know you were Harry's brother.... you guys don't look alike at all." She stated as she observed my features. She wasn't wrong. Harry and I don't look alike at all. Which is why we didn't buy that, until Dumbledore showed us proof.

I gave out a sigh. "He's my step brother... we share a dad." I confessed. 

"Ohh that makes more sense." She said, giving me a smile. " Try to keep your head high, the talks should die down soon." She smiled as she put an arm around me as we walked into positions.
