~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I felt a stringy substance within my mouth. My eyes hesitantly opened but were abruptly hit by the bright sun rays that shone directly through a singular window. I lifted my hand to my lips and my fingers clasped around some of my long black hair that just so happened to fall into my mouth as I fell asleep the night before. I gazed around when I realized that I was directly opposite to where I should have been sleeping, on the pillow. My head just barely hung off the edge of the grand bed.

I slightly shifted but noticed something hard underneath me. I lifted myself and revealed Esther's grimoire lying just below my stomach. I must have gotten no sleep the night before since I was too busy occupying myself with loads and loads of reading through the old book. I lazily threw the book aside as I thrust my face into the emerald duvet, groaning obnoxiously.

After about two minutes of finally being able to pull myself together, I ambled over toward a white vanity mirror directly opposite the bed. The mirror sat atop a grey antique desk. I hunched over the small circular stool that stood in front of the desk, leaning one of my hands onto the wooden surface, and the other to examine my tired eyes. Merlin, I look, horrible.

I cringed at my scruffy features. My hair was in knots, my eyes were swollen and dark, and my pajamas were wrinkled. Sure, I was beautiful, but I was far from being a pretty sleeper. I grasped my stomach as it grumbled uncontrollably. I needed food as soon as possible. I threw my disheveled hair into a messy bun and straightened out my bed ware, which consisted of a white tank top and green plaid pajama pants.

Reaching for the door handle I realized something, Draco. After what happened last night I don't think I would be willing to confront him at the moment. I quickly devised a plan that would allow me to get downstairs and to the kitchen as soon as possible, while still avoiding him. I would simply tiptoe downstairs, grab food, sneak back, eat, then shower. Easy, right?

Or so I thought...

I vigilantly opened my bedroom door, being quiet enough so that he wouldn't hear the creaking wood. Making my way to the kitchen wasn't nearly as difficult as I expected it to be. I walked through the large hallway leading to the kitchen. I ran into something small and when I heard a squeal I knew it was a house elf. I peered down in the direction of the small creature. It quickly got up but refused to look me in the eyes. I could sense fear within the trembling body. "I am so very sorry Miss, Dobby must punish himself." He grabbed a steel frying pan from the counter and began to whack himself in the head with the black object.

"STUPID DOBBY"

"STUPID DOBBY"

"STUPID STUPID STUPID STUP-"

"Hey! Hey! Stop! You're hurting yourself!" I gasped as I grasped the metal pan and placed it out of his reach. I leaned down to come face to face with the elf. "It's alright Dobby, you don't need to hurt yourself it was my fault I wasn't looking where I was going," I said sympathetically gazing at him. How horribly he must have been treated to do such a thing to himself, poor guy. His eyes widened out of surprise.
