Behind The Blue Eyes

"Saoirse, stop breathing so loudly," Draco ordered, turning away from his sister as far as he could.

Saoirse frowned, giving up and scooting over to the far side of the seat again.

He rolled his eyes and stared out the window of the compartment.

A few moments later, the siblings' heads shot up as they heard the door slide open.

"Draco!" a boy greeted, strutting in and taking a seat beside her.

The other boy and girl with him strode into the room and took a seat across from them.

"Theo," Draco acknowledged. "Blaise, Pansy."

"How was your summer, Draky?" Pansy asked flirtatiously.

"Pansy, not right now."

"Who's this pipsqueak?" Theo asked beside her, grinning.

"Oh, that's Saoirse. Don't pay attention to her, she's going into her first year."

Saoirse inhaled sharply, standing up and walking out the compartment.

"What's wrong with her?" she heard Blaise ask as she walked away.

"Don't know. She hasn't spoken a word in her life. My parents say she's mute, but I think she's just too dumb to speak English."
