[HP] Ravenclaw Girls' Hard Days

After some distance from the Ravenclaw common room, Kathy let go of Potter's arm, and she asked again, "Where are we going?"

"Forbidden Forest," Potter replied.

It was almost nine o'clock now, and the Forbidden Forest was a bit far from the Ravenclaw common room. It must have been a curfew by now.

But Casey didn't travel once or twice at night. She thought about it and didn't raise any objections. She just asked, "Why are you going to the Forbidden Forest?"

Potter hesitated, and said, "Temporarily confidential."

"Okay." Kathy felt that this matter must be related to Potter's recent mysterious behavior. She curled her lips and didn't continue to ask—anyway, she would know the answer in a while.

It was getting late, and some of the portraits on the wall began to yawn. Even the portraits of the guards of the secret passage were a little drowsy, and even the movement of opening the secret passage slowed down, which made Casey and Potter Consciously quickened the pace.

Anyone who has experience in night travel knows that once the portrait falls asleep, it is impossible to open the secret passage, and even if they wake them up, they will only get scolded.

But even as the two of them tried to quicken their pace, the last few secret passages were closed to them.

As Kathy and Potter left the castle and walked on the lawn, the curfew clock rang.

The enchanted castle slowly darkened. Through the window, you could see the torches in the castle slowly going out, and even the newly installed fluorescent lamps were slowly dimming in violation of Muggle science. When Kathy and the others walked out Looking back after a while, only the windows of the common rooms of the two colleges on the top floor of the castle were still dimly lit.

The road leading to the Forbidden Forest is even longer, and there are no street lights at Hogwarts. After the curfew, the entire campus is pitch black. After all, Kathy and Potter are night tours, so they dare not use them casually. Fluorescence flickers.

Fortunately, it was a full moon tonight, and the moonlight was quite bright. When it shone on the grass, it was like covering the grass with a layer of silver light, so that the two of them would not be able to see the road.

After coming out of the castle, passing through the courtyard, walking across the lawn, and passing through a long covered bridge, there is a fork in the road. Going to the right for a long distance is the owl house, and going to the left leads to the Forbidden Forest.

Porter led Casey to the left for a while, and gradually there were sparse trees on the side of the road, and fallen leaves appeared under his feet. The moonlight was blocked by the leaves above his head, and his visibility gradually declined.

The darkness made Casey approach Potter subconsciously. Even though she knew that this was only the outermost edge of the Forbidden Forest and there was no danger, she still couldn't help reaching out and hooking Potter's long-distance running sleeve.

"Cathy, there's nothing to be afraid of." Potter seemed to be very familiar with this place, he kept walking forward and said, "If you are afraid, let me turn on a light."

The next moment, Potter took out his wand and used an enhanced fluorescent flash. The flashlight-like light dispelled the darkness in front of him, and made Casey, who had just pulled Potter's sleeves loose, let go: "...Okay Alright, thank you."

They continued walking toward the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and the surrounding light was getting darker and darker. Casey felt the smell of soil and trees getting heavier, and the ground under his feet became softer, even a little soft when he stepped on it.

The darkness breeds fear. Kathy couldn't help pulling out her wand, and also used an enhanced fluorescent flashlight, but these two strong flashlights didn't bring her much sense of security. She always felt that there was something in the darkness. Watching them, she clearly felt the difference between this place and the castle.

She was never so restless on a night tour of the castle.

She grabbed Potter's sleeve again and asked, "How long do we have to go?"

"Almost there!" Potter said sincerely. "Five minutes!"

After a few more five minutes, Potter suddenly picked up his pace.

Kathy's feet were sore from walking, she was a bit unable to walk at first, but now that Potter accelerated, she simply stopped working.

She regretted a little why she had to come to the jungle with Potter at night, she had been walking for more than an hour!Not even a break in between!

Potter walked forward for a while, only to realize that Casey hadn't followed, and turned his head to urge Casey: "Casey, come quickly, it's right in front! We'll be there soon!"

Casey stood there, rolled her eyes at him, and asked unhappy, "Where are you taking me?"

"You'll know when we get there." Potter was still reluctant to say, he looked a little excited, and Kathy didn't understand what he was excited about.

Potter looked at the dark road ahead, then at Casey who refused to move, turned back and stood in front of Casey, and sincerely encouraged her: "Cathy, we are almost there, five minutes!"

Kathy had heard this sentence 10 minutes ago.

She took a deep breath, glared at Potter, then switched the wand from her right hand to her left and held out her right hand towards him.

Potter didn't understand what she meant, and asked rather strangely, "What's wrong?"

Kathy stared at him for a few seconds, then took a scowling step forward, grabbed Potter's free left hand firmly, and pulled him forward in strides.

Porter obediently followed Casey for a few steps, smirked for a while, and soon turned his back on the guest, held Casey's hand instead, and pulled Casey to walk a little to the right, adjusting her erroneous route—— This made Casey very curious about how Potter found the correct route in the forbidden forest where it was difficult to recognize the direction.

This time Potter didn't talk nonsense, he was indeed coming soon.

They walked forward for less than three minutes before Potter finally stopped.

This is a small open space in the woods. There are obviously fewer rotten leaves on the ground, and the feeling of stepping on it is also different.

Kathy lowered her head and gently swept away some leaves with her shoes, exposing some broken stone slabs underneath, and weeds came out from the gaps in the stone slabs—this is also the reason why there are fewer trees around.

She didn't think Potter had brought her to see this, and she turned her head to see what else was special about it.

As soon as she looked up, Potter beside her cleared her throat vigorously: "Kathy!"

Casey had no choice but to look at Porter questioningly. The latter pursed his lips a little nervously, his gaze swung down, and fell on his and Casey's hands.

The next second, Potter quickly let go of his hand, and clenched his fist at his side. He lowered his head and said, "Uh...sorry."

Casey withdrew her hand slowly and asked, "So what are we doing here?"

"Can't say yet." Speaking of this, Potter's embarrassment disappeared, and he looked up at Casey, with an expectant expression on his face again, "Turn off the spell, close your eyes, Casey."

Well, what a surprise it seems.

Kathy snorted, gave Potter a sullen look, turned off the lumos, and closed her eyes.

With her eyes closed, it wasn't completely dark. Potter's fluorescent lights were still flickering, and she could vaguely feel some brightness, but her other senses had become sharper. The wind in the forest made her cheeks a little itchy, and the mud and The smell of wood seems to be more pronounced than before.

And there were rustling noises from Potter's side, and there were clicking sounds from time to time, but I didn't know what it was.

Kathy's heart itch, but she tried her best to suppress her curiosity and kept her eyes tightly closed.

After a few seconds, she couldn't help but ask, "Are you ready?"

"Wait!" said Potter urgently.

Casey had to wait patiently in the darkness for a few more seconds, and soon heard Porter heaving a sigh of relief, saying, "Okay, you can open your eyes now."

She quickly opened her eyes.

The fluorescent flickering at the tip of Potter’s wand did not know when it went out, but there was still light in the woods—a golden string of lights wrapped around the branches several times before hanging down, and the small light bulbs scattered in the stars merged into a golden streamer, shining brightly. Between the branches and leaves, stretching all the way to the distance, Casey couldn't even see the end of this stream of light.

Kathy turned around in a circle, and finally set her eyes on Potter. She couldn't imagine how much time Potter spent on this.

Holding her wand, she pursed her lips and whispered, "This is..."

"Surprise." Potter felt embarrassed again at this moment. He scratched the back of his head, looked aside, and quickly looked at Casey again. After a short pause, he took a deep breath and recognized Seriously, "I know you don't like roses, you don't like being noticed by too many people, you don't like green peppers, you don't like Quidditch..."

Kathy felt her cheeks getting hot, and she unconsciously put her hands behind her back, clasped them tightly, and looked at Potter without avoiding her eyes.

"...There are so many things you don't like. Before, I thought you didn't like me either." Potter couldn't help laughing when he said this, and Casey couldn't help pursing his lips into a smile. Potter He said quickly, "But now I think you should like me a little bit."

Kathy was about to speak when Potter said, "But anyway—"

So Kathy shut up again.

"Kathy, I like you!" Potter looked at Kathy, "Would you like to be my girlfriend?"
