RIDDLES PROPERTY

chapter 11

Emelia walked out of the dining hall and saw Riddle leaning against the wall. George had abruptly took her alcohol and drank it without her permission, it made her a bit mad.

"Riddle." she said.

He didn't look up from his diary. He seemed to be jotting something down. Emelia approached him.

"Hello?"

Still no reply. She stepped closer and peeked at his diary. He shut it, immediately, and walked away. She was mad, no...not mad. She was interested at his new found pretentious ignorance towards her.

'But why' she thought.

He was gone, most likely into his dormitories. She sighed and walked back to the Gryffindor common rooms. As she entered she saw Olive and Fred. Olive was laughing until she made eye contact with Emelia.

The laughter abruptly stopped before she looked back at Fred and laughed ten times harder than before.

"What'd I say?" Fred asked.

"You're just such a funny bloke, oh my! Look it's our dear friend, Emelia. Let us go say hello."

Olive approached Emelia while Fred stared, blankly, at her.

"Hello, Emelia! I did not see you there. You know, Fred and I were just hanging out and well he just can't get enough of me ever since we started dating. Are you coming to the party? I sure hope you can make it. It'd be a shame for you not to meet Freddy's parents and family. They are lovely!" she spewed out.

"I don't think I can make it." Emelia replied.

"What a shame. Anyways, goodbye!" Olive said and turned around before Emelia could reply.

Fred gave Emelia an apologetic look before getting dragged away by Olive.

"What a fucking prat." Emelia whispered under her breath.

She walked back into her dormitory after a few minutes and huffed. Of course, she forgot she shared it with Olive. She'd walked into a room with Olive eating Fred's face.

'Gross.' she thought.

Emelia quickly shut the door and left before Olive could come up with a slick comment. She took out her airpods and sat on the common room couches. She played the song, 'Father Stretch My Hands'.

Emelia looked down at her legs and saw her fishnet tights starting to form a small hole. Emelia took her fingers and stretched it out. It ripped even more. She stopped before she could make a larger hole.

'I wonder what my parents are doing' she wondered.

Her father was a bit abusive, but her mother and her were close. Her mother knew she was a witch because she'd inherited it form her, but her father was a muggle.

She knew her mother couldn't leave him because of their conservative cultural backgrounds. He was always leaving and coming back at random times, but tried to make things better by providing them with a nice house. He only knew she was at a boarding school for 'disciplined kids'.

Emelia started drifting off while Tay-K started playing on her airpods.

'Maybe I will go to their party. Just for shits'n'giggles.', she thought.

Her eyes started closing and she was getting drowsy. Emelia wrapped her robes around herself to act as a blanket.

It was quite cold.
