[HP] just lover
Chapter 8
There's been a lot of people in Slytherin getting together to talk about things lately, and even Severus Snape hangs out with them occasionally.
There was Avery and Lestrange in it, it was nothing, it was normal, these pure-blood families were already connected, but Snape's presence made all of this extremely awkward.
Vanessa was the one who was left out. She was afraid to avoid the adult they mentioned. Articles and reports on the blood theory in the Daily Prophet made people living in Slytherin but mixed blood Her life was getting more and more precarious.
With difficulty, when the time came to Halloween, Vanessa's spirit became more tense and concentrated.
On this special day today, many people can use prank toys to throw harmful spells on her. She has to be cautious. When she has to go out, she rushes to pick up things that she doesn't usually go to. Go where there are few people.
At this moment, she suddenly had an idea, if only Lucius was still at Hogwarts, with him in Slytherin, no one would dare to bully her like this.
As soon as this idea appeared, Vanessa was taken aback. She stood there coldly, her eyes blank, and she didn't move on.At this moment, she seemed to hear noises in the abandoned classroom around the corner. She took a few steps forward, and a few students came in groups, and the school uniform belonged to Slytherin.
She didn't think too much about it, she just flashed into the abandoned classroom, but after she came in, she regretted how she came in so impulsively.
Her greatest enemy in this life is impulsiveness.
Seeing Severus Snape lying on the ground, Lily Evans standing in front of him, and the foursome Gryffindor hijackers holding wands as if they were the culprit, Vanessa His expression was slightly unpleasant.
Bad luck.
She knew them when she saw them.
Snape was lying on the ground, covered in dust, he was blocked by Lily Evans, the Lily of Gryffindor, and the beautiful girl in the third grade glared at the four boys who stretched out their wands at them, and said through gritted teeth: "Potter! Get the hell out of here!"
James Potter said anxiously: "Evans, it was the snot-nosed who cast the curse at us first, why did you tell me to go away?"
Evans said indifferently: "He is alone among the four of you, I don't understand why he would ask for trouble and take the initiative to throw evil spells at you?!"
"You are unreasonable, and we are not the ones who made the first move."
Sirius Black retorted lightly, his eyes wandering to Vanessa who suddenly appeared here.
He frowned, pointed his wand at Vanessa, clicked his tongue and said, "Another meddlesome guy?"
Knowing that she was discovered, Vanessa couldn't escape, she looked again at Snape, who was lying there in a mess, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and said with a long sigh of relief: "Even if you didn't make the first move, I think, With your abilities, it is very possible to use words to force a person to take the initiative to attack you."
What Vanessa was about to say was exactly what Lily Evans wanted to say. She was so anxious that she almost lost her mind. Hearing Vanessa's words, she gave her a grateful look.
Some of the four people who were exposed began to look erratic, but Sirius Black remained calm, as if these things were not worth mentioning,
He looked at her expressionlessly and said, "Really, it turns out that we are so capable in the eyes of the senior sisters in the seventh grade. It's really a gratifying discovery."
He didn't know why he seemed very unhappy, and walked towards her with strides. It's Halloween, and there are prank tricks everywhere, even this abandoned classroom, one after another, there are students passing by outside , Vanessa glanced outside the classroom, and was about to take the opportunity to slip away. Blake seemed to have stepped on some mechanism. There was an explosion, and the smoke was lingering. Vanessa only had time to exclaim, and felt that the whole person was overwhelmed and fell heavily on the ground. On the ground, before she could understand what was going on, her mouth was hit hard, and she was instantly stunned.
"???"
The smoke was billowing, and after everything disappeared, passers-by and people inside saw Sirius Black, the third grader, pressing on Vanessa Albert, the seventh grader, and he... kissed her lips.
Sirius and Vanessa were absent-minded for a few seconds, then stood up abruptly from the ground, and the two began to wipe their mouths in disgust in tacit understanding, which stunned everyone, including Snape who slowly got up, Snape Nepe came to his senses and let out a nasty laugh. The laughter made Blake's expression even uglier. He wiped his mouth vigorously and looked at Vanessa, who was as black as the school robe she was wearing. .
"Damn it!" Blake cursed, turned around and left quickly, Vanessa couldn't stay any longer, and left in the opposite direction, ignoring the reactions of the people around her, she knew that she shouldn't come out on Halloween, and it would be bad luck if she went out , she never wanted to meet Gryffindor again in her life!How dare Blake say damn it!She's the one who said damn it!
An episode that happened in a certain abandoned classroom on Halloween was widely spread, and it was not known how it was spread. In the end, it turned out that the two of them were having a sister-brother relationship.
Moreover, these rumors reached Lucius Malfoy's ears vividly.
Lucius, who had been busy all day, sat on the sofa, looking at the letter he had just received and the words written on it. His handsome face, which had no blood at all, was frighteningly white. Jedah stood there tremblingly, constantly Blaming himself: "Yeda is a bad elf! Yeda didn't do what the master told him to do! Yeda is a bad elf!"
Lucius pressed his forehead with a headache, and said coldly: "Disappear."
With tears in his big eyes, Yeda snapped his fingers and disappeared in front of him.
Lucius looked at the letter on the table again. It not only said that Vanessa and Sirius Black were in love, but also described their kiss on Halloween. However, after the actual accident developed into gossip news, It turned out that they were getting intimate in the abandoned classroom behind their backs.
The next day.
Lucius appeared at the adult's party without concealing his exhaustion. There were many Hogwarts graduates standing beside him. The adult showed more and more strength. He was young, powerful in magic, and able to Bringing more benefits to pure-blood nobles, he is becoming more and more dissatisfied with the current achievements, and he desires more loyal servants.
Lucius touched his left arm. There was no mark on it. He hesitated. Walburga and Orion Black were also swinging. They were unusual nobles. When you need to stand in line, it is not so easy to make up your mind.
Although, his father was once a loyal follower of that lord.
Thinking of the hideous and dark mark on his father's arm, Lucius' face became paler. He is the most valued subordinate of the Dark Lord who is about to marry the Black family, and he will be marked sooner or later. Before he is marked, the Dark Lord needs to his "contribution".
This so-called "contribution" is nothing more than using Lucius' identity and status to attract more "servants" for that lord.
But in fact, the mark that is equivalent to a "gift" to the Dark Lord is not so alluring in the eyes of those who still have reason.
Christmas is coming as scheduled, and Vanessa seldom goes out after Halloween. She is already a target in today's Slytherin, and she even got involved with Blake from Gryffindor. How could she not be targeted?
When she got on the Hogwarts Express, she almost escaped.
She found an empty box at random, put her luggage away, and was sure that she would be home soon, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
But Merlin, she has raced against time, and she still hasn't escaped her worst worry.
Narcissa Black appeared in her box. She probably came to inspect the compartment. When she spotted her, she went in directly.
"Why don't you go and sit with your classmates?"
Narcissa asked casually and stood at the door. From her expression, she didn't seem to be in a bad mood.
Vanessa pursed her lips and said, "...I want to find a quiet place to take a good rest."
Narcissa raised her lips and smiled, and pointedly said: "Then why don't you go and sit with my brother - Sirius, don't you go and sit with him?"
Narcissa's expression obviously knew the truth of the matter, she should have also looked for Sirius Black, but she was still joking like this, and Vanessa's expression changed.
"Miss Black should know that the things about me and your brother are just unreliable rumors. I have nothing to do with him, and I haven't even said a few words."
She explained calmly and did not meet Narcissa's eyes. Narcissa gave her one last look, nodded and said, "I know, I just want to say, you don't have to worry so much, after you graduate, all these worries will be gone , As for what you have been worrying about this semester, I have already warned them, and no one will harass you anymore."
She used the word "harassment", obviously very politely, but she should have used the word "bullying".
Even if Vanessa's grades are good in her studies, the magic spell can still make it okay, but she can't stand those people playing tricks behind her back. Even if she is very careful, there will always be times when she gets caught. There is no chance of an outbreak of fear, and there is no evidence to even file a complaint with the professors.
She also knew that she would be fine after graduation, so she could stay away from the hustle and bustle, but she never thought that it would be Narcissa who finally said these words to her and made those confessions.
"Thank you."
After thinking for a long time, she still thanked her. Narcissa said that you are welcome, turned around and left the box, and continued to inspect the compartment.
Vanessa leaned back in her chair, wondering why Narcissa kept showing her affections again and again. She is Lucius' fiancée, since she realized that Lucius had an unusual relationship with her, why not Angry, but seems to be happy to defend her?
It's hard to guess the mind of the nobleman.
In the evening, Vanessa returned to her temporary residence in Wiltshire. The house has become completely different from when she left for school. Flowers, they are enchanted, they bloom all year round, very delicate and beautiful.
She stood at the door with her luggage in silence for a long time before slowly opening the door.
"Nisa?" Roxie spotted her daughter at a glance. She was a little embarrassed, but quickly ran over and said, "You're back. I was going to pick you up, but something happened suddenly. Are you okay?"
Vanessa said lightly: "It's okay, I'm fine, you haven't picked me up for the past six years, and you don't need it this year."
Roxy lost his mind for a moment, followed her and said, "Are you blaming me, Nissa?"
Vanessa looked at the living room with traces of a banquet, feeling unhappy.
She never blamed her mother for being cowardly and incompetent.She insisted on marrying her father at the beginning, but she couldn't keep the marriage after she got married, and couldn't find a job to support herself and her children after divorce. become like this?
Vanessa looked at her mother with complicated eyes, and went straight to the second floor without saying anything.
Roxy stood downstairs, she wanted to explain, but couldn't explain, she was indeed not a good mother, most of the time she couldn't even take care of herself well.She has failed so much and fallen so badly, but what can she do?
Late at night.
Vanessa didn't eat anything on the train, and she didn't eat dinner when she got home. Dobby appeared in her room. She ignored it and drove him away. Dobby stared and turned around. After a circle, he disappeared into her room.
Not long after, the sound of apparition sounded, and Vanessa opened her eyes, and saw Lucius standing in her room in a hurry.
She didn't move, just lay on her side and looked at him. He patted the dust that didn't exist on his body, and looked at her with a frown: "Dobby said you haven't eaten for a long time, why?"
He cares about her.
Vanessa pursed her lips and remained silent. Lucius might have rushed over from some kind of banquet, wearing expensive and gorgeous robes and gloves on his hands.
He took a few steps forward with his cane, stopped in front of her bed, and asked her, "Are you angry?"
Vanessa still didn't speak, but her hand holding the quilt was tight.
It's not that she doesn't talk, it's that she doesn't know what to say. She knows that if she finds the house by herself now, it's unlikely that her mother will go with her. Lucius almost controlled Roxie in this luxurious house. She was thinking about the possibility of living alone, but if her mother didn't leave, it would be impossible for her to break up with Lucius.
Lucius slowly sat on the edge of Vanessa's bed, and she subconsciously hid inside. In the darkness, his slender hand fell on her cheek, stroking gently through the glove, with a sense of comfort.
"Because of your mother? Or someone at Hogwarts?"
He asked in a low voice, his voice was a little hoarse, Vanessa froze, and realized between his words that those unreliable rumors from the school also ran into his ears.
"Sires Black, is that the helper you found to fight against me?" Lucius stared at her with gray blue eyes, and said contemptuously, "He entered Gryffindor, obviously he is not a well-behaved nobleman, do you think relying on He can resist me, is that so?"
Vanessa knew she couldn't stay silent any longer.
She bit her lip and sat up, avoiding his hand, lowered her eyes and said, "No. It's not like that."
Lucius tilted his head, pretending to be listening attentively.
"I don't have a boyfriend, I'm lying to you, I just want to confuse you." Vanessa confronted him directly, "Actually, until now, I still don't quite understand why you are so persistent in keeping with me... This kind of relationship. Your fiancée treated me weirdly at school too. She should hate me, but she doesn't. I don't know what you have done and what you are about to do, let alone want you to do it It's all because you like me—it's not because of that, is it? You just don't like it, do you?"
She threw the question back, and Lucius sat there without speaking for a long time, with one hand on his lap and the other holding his cane, staring at her expressionlessly, as if trying to see what she could come up with. excuse.
Vanessa thought of the increasingly tense atmosphere since the beginning of school, and the attacks she received from time to time. She breathed a sigh of relief and expressed the only worry she could not ignore besides morality.
"Mr. Malfoy, I have a reason why I absolutely cannot promise you, would you like to hear it?"
He has already graduated, and it is no longer appropriate to call him a senior. She calls him Mr., which is very polite, but also very... cold.
Lucius only spoke now, with a very light tone: "Tell me." He remained calm.
"I can't get too close to you." She also analyzed rationally, "Because the lord—it's no secret that he is in Slytherin. I occasionally heard them talking about his Christmas party. Came here straight from that party, right?"
Lucius frowned, and he stood up directly, not intending to talk to her about the adult's appearance at all, but Vanessa didn't stop.
"My origin and blood will cause us troubles for each other. That adult's views are too extreme. There will be a war in the magic world sooner or later. I don't want to be a victim, I just want to hide away. If you are really following him, My identity will also bring you trouble, once someone tells him that you have a... lover like me, won't he doubt your recognition of the pure-blood idea and your loyalty to him?" Fanny Sa breathed a sigh of relief, stared at him quietly and said, "Mr. Malfoy, I didn't expect that I could tell you these words calmly, and I didn't expect you to listen to them all, but I still hope you can think about it."
If these words, Vanessa told him before returning, and said it when they met in the cellar, maybe Lucius would think carefully, and even agree with her point of view, and really let go of this relationship.
However, it is too late to say anything now.
At the banquet attended today, the lord showed more of his strength. He can manipulate dementors without the Patronus Charm.
He showed his strength to his loyal servants, and Lucius saw it with complicated emotions.
He left the venue, wanting to be alone and thinking about his future choices. On the way, he met several dementors. Before they approached, he drove them away with the Patronus Charm, but because of this, he completely I froze in place.
His Patronus, always, was a silver snake, like the one on the Master's staff.
But this time, when he summoned the Patronus to drive away the dementors, what he saw was a beautiful butterfly.
Butterfly.
Vanessa's name means butterfly in Greek.
Lucius looked at the butterfly that was gradually disappearing in front of his eyes, and Vanessa's face seemed to overlap with his memory.
He looked back at her with complicated eyes, and after a long silence, he said hoarsely: "What is your patron saint?" He asked urgently, as if to prove something, "Show me your patron saint."
Vanessa was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he meant, but she still waved her wand according to his request: "Call God to protect you."
Silver light and shadow spread from the top of the wand, and gradually, beautiful butterflies appeared in the room. Vanessa admired her patron saint with a little smile on her lips. Lucius looked at it with gray-blue eyes. But there is some hidden despair.
He was glad no one had seen his Patronus at the time.
He disapparated and left here almost in a panic, just as suddenly as when he came.
The difference was that shortly after he left, Dobby quietly prepared a dinner, which was placed on the table in Vanessa's room.
Vanessa, who looked at the food and expressed her inner worries, got up from the bed in a daze and relief, and sat down at the table.
Maybe they will be able to separate.
This is what she has been looking forward to and fighting for, but she is really close to success, but she is not happy at all.
Perhaps, before she knew it, she had already fallen into this immoral relationship because of her irrepressible feelings.
Merlin.
Help.
The author has something to say: Father L’s patron saint has long since changed
He only knew it this time with the spell
I'm afraid I was frightened by the depth of my feelings for the heroine
There was Avery and Lestrange in it, it was nothing, it was normal, these pure-blood families were already connected, but Snape's presence made all of this extremely awkward.

If you are really following him, My identity will also bring you trouble, once someone tells him that you have a... lover like me, won't he doubt your recognition of the pure-blood idea and your loyalty to him?" Fanny Sa breathed a sigh of relief, stared at him quietly and said, "Mr. Malfoy, I didn't expect that I could tell you these words calmly, and I didn't expect you to listen to them all, but I still hope you can think about it."
If these words, Vanessa told him before returning, and said it when they met in the cellar, maybe Lucius would think carefully, and even agree with her point of view, and really let go of this relationship.
However, it is too late to say anything now.
At the banquet attended today, the lord showed more of his strength. He can manipulate dementors without the Patronus Charm.
He showed his strength to his loyal servants, and Lucius saw it with complicated emotions.
He left the venue, wanting to be alone and thinking about his future choices. On the way, he met several dementors. Before they approached, he drove them away with the Patronus Charm, but because of this, he completely I froze in place.
His Patronus, always, was a silver snake, like the one on the Master's staff.
But this time, when he summoned the Patronus to drive away the dementors, what he saw was a beautiful butterfly.
Butterfly.
Vanessa's name means butterfly in Greek.
Lucius looked at the butterfly that was gradually disappearing in front of his eyes, and Vanessa's face seemed to overlap with his memory.
He looked back at her with complicated eyes, and after a long silence, he said hoarsely: "What is your patron saint?" He asked urgently, as if to prove something, "Show me your patron saint."
Vanessa was stunned for a moment, not understanding what he meant, but she still waved her wand according to his request: "Call God to protect you."
Silver light and shadow spread from the top of the wand, and gradually, beautiful butterflies appeared in the room. Vanessa admired her patron saint with a little smile on her lips. Lucius looked at it with gray-blue eyes. But there is some hidden despair.
He was glad no one had seen his Patronus at the time.
He disapparated and left here almost in a panic, just as suddenly as when he came.
The difference was that shortly after he left, Dobby quietly prepared a dinner, which was placed on the table in Vanessa's room.
Vanessa, who looked at the food and expressed her inner worries, got up from the bed in a daze and relief, and sat down at the table.
Maybe they will be able to separate.
This is what she has been looking forward to and fighting for, but she is really close to success, but she is not happy at all.
Perhaps, before she knew it, she had already fallen into this immoral relationship because of her irrepressible feelings.
Merlin.
Help.
