The Slytherin Heiress- Draco Malfoy

Chapter 6

" Ordinary Wizarding Levels, also commonly known as O. W. L. 's. This year we will be focusing on learning in a risk free way. We will not be using our wands at all. As far as the Ministry is concerned, the  previous material has been very disturbingly inaccurate. From now on, we will be studying using the new Ministry approved books."

" But, professor, there aren't any spells in here. " Pointed Harry.

I looked through my book and surely enough, he was right.

" Spells? I don't see  why you should be using spells. " She used her sickly sweet yet fake voice.

" But how is this supposed to prepare us for what's out there? " Asked Harry defeated.

" There's nothing out there. Who would like to harm children like yourself? " She asked rethoricaly.

" Oh I don't know.. Maybe.. Lord Voldemort!" He exclaimed.

I widened my eyes. I haven't heard that cursed name in years. The memories. Oh no... My mind was going places but luckily I was interrupted by Umbridge, as I've learned her name that was written  on the blackboard.

" ENOUGH. Detention mister Potter. "

I was itching to say something but the- first impression remember? It was what I was taught. But still. What Harry said seemed fairly right. Oh fuck first impressions.

" Professor, excuse me but, Harry was only asking a question. You seemed to get very defensive of that particular topic and that only indicates that you have something to hide. After all, you are a teacher aren't you? You should be answering whatever the students curiously ask. " I said confidently.

The whole class turned to look at me in shock. I smiled in satisfaction. Even Draco glanced at me as if asking  ' are  you out of your mind?' Harry turned around glancing at me, giving me a small smile of appreciation. I winked back at him as if saying ' I've got your back.'

Umbridge paused, still in shock at the fact that this was the first class of the year, and already 2 students have been rebelling against her.

" And who might you be, little girl?" She asked in a tone that tried to prove she was better than me. Oh hell no. I completely hated it when someone called me that. I am no little girl. I am not weak. I am NOT.

" I'm the owner of this castle. Aspen Serpentine for short." I said proudly.

" I see. Miss.. Serpentine, it is my job to teach what we have in our curriculum, nothing else besides that you see."

" I am very much capable of seeing but not understanding why you gave him detention for asking a simple question. " I  pointed out. I felt someone kick my in my shin and I looked at Draco, mouthing a 'stop it . You're going to get detention.' I shrugged. I could care less about a stupid detention.

" As much as I appreciate a curious mind, one must remember not to go past the boundaries. Therefore, he got detention for doing just that." She tried explaining. I was so annoyed by this.

" Bullshit." I muttered. I was hoping no one heard it, but I was severely wrong when she stepped in front of me with an angry look on her face. Other students around the classroom and gasped and some of them were struggling not to laugh.

" Miss Serpentine. I WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS VULGAR BEHAVIOR IN MY CLASS. DETENTION. BOTH OF YOU."  She was probably referring to me and Harry.

I sighed. There goes my first class.

After 40 minutes of pure torture we were finally free.

I exited the class when someone came next to me, making me stop dead in my tracks.

" Hi. Uh I just wanted to thank you for standing up for me. No one's ever really done that." Harry said shyly, rubbing his arms.

" No need to thank me. I do what's right. And she was clearly ou of her mind so I had to do something." I explained.

" Y- yeah we- well thank you anyway. I should probab-"

" Oi Potter. Stop bothering her! " yelled a pissed off Malfoy. He came up to us, towering Harry and looking down on him.
" Leave her and go to your mudblood friends. "  He spat while grabbing my forearm and dragging me away. When we were standing in an empty hallway, he turned around, letting go of my arm and started shouting.

" WHY IN MERLIN'S BEARD ARE YOU LIKE THAT? YOU JUST GOT DETENTION AFTER BEING IN THIS SCHOOL FOR MERELY AN HOUR. Ugh come on. We don't wanna be late for Potions." He then continued to drag me, only I stopped and snatched my arm from his grip, causing him to turn around.

" WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO? KISS MY ASS MALFOY. YOU ARE NO BETTER THAN ME. LEAVE ME THE FUCK ALONE. " I yelled while bumping his shoulder in the process. I kept walking angrily until  I ended up in an empty hallway. I didn't even realize where I was going because I was blinded by my anger. I had no idea where I was going. I was alone in the hallways with no one to ask for directions and I was supposed to get to my next class and fast. . I decided to use my intuition and logics.

Potions might be in a place that's secluded from the rest of the school, in case a potion goes wrong. That's it! The dungeons.

I quickly ran through the halls, trying to guess which class was the right one. After a few good minutes, I heard a monotone voice speaking behind a door. I listened in closely and heard something about Wormwood and brewing. Hopefully I'm right. I opened the ancient looking door, glancing around. People were partnered up in groups of 4. Oh no I will have to join the group that does not have the 4 members.

" Decided to join us, Miss Seepentine?" Asked the greasy haired professor. I wasn't sure of his name though my timetable had the names of all the teachers for their respective subjects but I didn't bother check it this morning.

" Oh yes sir. You see, I-"

" Detention. Don't be late next time."

I COULD NOT BELIEVE THIS. It  was my second class so far and I've already got two detentions. Not one. But bloody two.

I heard a group snicker and I noticed Draco with his stupid friends silently laugh at me. I narrowed my eyes at him ready to show him my middle finger but I remembered the teacher was watching me.

" You may take a seat at Malfoy's table. And begin working. ALL OF YOU."

I angrily made my way over to them. I recognized Blaise and the stupid bleach boy but not the third one.

He looked at me and introduced himself.

" Theodore Nott. Pleasure to finally meet our new royalty. "

I smiled acknowledging his presence since I was too angry to respond back.

We got to work. Only, it wasn't that simple with Malfoy being around.
