17. "Night Sky"

DRACO'S POV

(I was quite furious about that Pottah, he dragged Zara with him I swear I will KILL him one day probably for Zara. But what happened next surprised me, it was like it all happened in mere seconds, first, we were running from Flitch next we were in the Forbidden third corridor and we faced a big three-headed dog and ran from there again. But felt a strange energy there I don't know what it is but Zara said we will talk about this tomorrow but I doubt she knows something more than we do. And even after the class started Zara was in her world, so I nudged her and pointed out that the professor is asking questions. But our bad Professor thought that we were talking.)

Professor AURORA: Mr. Malfoy what is Aquila Constellation?

DRACO: Hmm...Well, Aquila is a constellation located on the celestial equator best seen in the northern summer.  Aquila was Talbott Winger's favorite constellation. Aquila derives its name from the Latin word for "eagle", representing the bird that carried Jupiter's thunderbolts in Roman mythology. It is therefore fitting that Talbott Winger was fond of this constellation since it corresponds to his Animagus form.

Professor AURORA: Hmm..very good. Ten points for Slytherin.

PANSY'S POV

(I don't even know what was happening around me, we were running from Flitch next we were in the Forbidden third corridor and we faced a big three-headed dog and ran from there again, now we are in our Astronomy class. I noticed a star chart pinned on the board Professor was explaining about Aquila Constellation but neither Zara nor Draco were listening Zara was lost in the trance seemed as if she was recalling what just happened. But suddenly Professor called Draco and asked what is Aquila Constellation, I thought of helping him but he answered smartly. )

ZARA'S POV:

(I was lost in my thoughts while Draco distributed me, but the professor thought we were talking and asked Draco about today's topic About the Aquila constellation I know Draco knows the answer, as we both love astronomy. But pansy seemed to be nervous when the question was asked thinking that Draco don't know the answer. He answered it correctly then the professor appreciated him and we moved on to the next topic 'Observing the constellations, Mainly Aquila' we observed the night sky. It is still a mystery to me how the night sky calms me, it was like a small star twinkling with light, mischievously squinting, say hello to me. They are like sly pearl that adorns the dark blue night sky and are no less inferior to the bright moon. Many were mesmerized by the wonderful night sky, they were observing the stars in their telescope.)

ZARA: They are so beautiful (She murmured like she was lost in a daze. )

PANSY: Yes they are.

DRACO: I found the Aqulia constellation. And there are many more.

(As we were enjoying the night sky and stars our class got over and we left for our common room. )

ON THE WAY TO THE SLYTHERIN COMMON ROOM:

PANSY: We had a long run today. I'm tired. (she said yawning)

DRACO: Yeah. And there is a lot more to talk to pottah and his friends.

ZARA: Tomorrow after classes, near Black Lake we can talk and it would be suspicious if talk to Potter in the Great Hall.

DRACO: I agree and I don't want to talk to potter in a kind manner in front of the whole school.

(he said in a sarcastic tone. Pansy chuckled.)

PANSY: Wait... Are we telling this to our friends???!

(Draco and Zara exchanged glances and nodded.)

ZARA: Yeah, we can tell them about our little journey in the 3rd corridor. (She winked and said)

(They walked alone through the hallway as other Slytherins left already they are the last... And finally, they reached their common room told the password, and entered the common room.)

ZARA: Goodnight fur.

DRACO: Good night little Devil.

(Pansy laughed at our sibling interaction.)

PANSY: Okkk... Good night Draco.

(Pansy dragged Zara to their dorm as Draco went to his dorm. They noticed Astoria and Maratha sleeping so they didn't disturb them and Pansy slept in her bed while Zara wrote something which turned into a butterfly and disappeared and it appeared again after some time, grinning Zara also went to sleep. As they were already exhausted and have a lot to think about.)
