•An interesting feeling

Extimum: ' well, where should I look, I don't think it's as simple as moving a book on a shelf, maybe a brick it? Or some magic word? , this being the Ravenclaw tower it would make more sense if it was some puzzle or riddle and it can't be too obvious or the others would have found it'. As he wandered through his room , the corridors, and the common room, Extimum looked critically at everything around him for some clue.

Going down the stairs that led to the bedrooms he finally noticed something, on a side wall of the staircase there was a plaque with the Ravenclaw symbol, the eagle, Although the shield is perfectly normal and given the opaque colors of the shield it would be easy to neglect it, but unlike the others, this eagle did not have its wings fully open, but only halfway, this could be a very small and insignificant detail, But since Extimum couldn't find anything else out of the ordinary in all this time, he could only put his faith that if there is something special about the shield and not just a poorly made shield or another version of the design.

Extimum put his hands on both wings and tried to lift them up and luckily it actually sounded like something had clicked, however after that nothing happened.

Extimum: ' haiz , I thought I found something, maybe it was just made to fool the students.' Extimum sighed and was getting ready to go when the wall where the shield was located became translucent and some words appeared on it . On the other side of the wall only a dark path was projected and nothing else .

Extimum: " Everyone has it ahead, but they show it with suspicion. It has a head and needles, but no hair ". Extimum mutter the riddle posted on the wall. (I'm guilty, I didn't find better riddles, but suggestions are welcome)

After pondering for a while, Extimum decided to take a chance with the solution he thought of.

Extimum: "a ... pocket watch ?"

After Extimum said his answer, the words disappeared.

Extimum : ' Failed or did I say it right ?, it just disappeared ...'.

Reaching out to touch the wall, his hand passed through it.

Extimum: ' Maybe ... if I answered correctly?, let's see what's beyond'.

Nothing in particular was felt as he crossed the veil of the translucent wall, stepping further into the dark hallway, a torch was suddenly lit with blue fire, revealing a spacious room .

Extimum: ' I didn't know we could make colored fire, ah wait, I think Hermione will do it in the future for the cold in winter'.

The room had 2 areas and a door, in one area was what would be the resting place , a large King size bed, much larger than the single beds in the bedroom, it also had a night table, a chair and a little further away, there was a large closet next to a mirror, in the other area there was a desk with a chair and on the nearby wall, there was an empty shelf closet and a window that showed outside the castle, the room shared the same design Ravenclaw with decorations bronzes and blue.

Walking to the door and looking inside after opening it, it was a large bathroom, consisting of a sink, a toilet, a shower and a tub.

Extimum : 'this is perfect, even has a private bathroom, however, others may enter if they also discover the mechanism?'. After appreciating the room, It only remained to think about whether this room would become his or someone else could also enter, if so, it would no longer be so attractive.

Extimum rummaged around the room a bit to see if there was some kind of key or amulet to access the room, but couldn't find anything.

When I was beginning to lose hope of obtaining a private room, a small explosion of blue light occurred in the middle of the room in which words appeared that disappeared shortly after appearing.

"The room will belong to you while you study at Hogwarts and its entry is only open to your will."

Extimum : 'and that, solves everything'. Extimum was very satisfied after reading the message, now he only needed to move his things to his new room.

Running quickly to his room, Extimum packed his things and brought them to his new room and proceeded to organize himself.

After finishing, Extimum took a bath and then went to sleep.

...

In the middle of the night, while Extimum slept, small changes began to occur in his body, although they were not noticeable enough for anyone to notice them, however, they were still happening. Extimum's body was getting stronger by a small amount, his hair also grew although almost imperceptibly and his upper fangs lengthened a bit, besides that, Extimum's presence or aura also increased by a certain margin. ; These changes were small, but they were the development that occurred from the direct contact that Extimum and Hermione had when he took her hand to flee from the cerberus. Of course, such small changes would not be noticed in the short term, but as long as the contact was maintained, the gradual changes would become noticeable.

.

The next morning, Extimum woke up feeling refreshed, He organized himself and left the Ravenclaw tower to head towards the entrance to the Gryffindor common room, today he would start hunting * ahem accompany Hermione to breakfast to establish his presence around her, after all, being in different houses, they would not see much except for some classes that they shared or in free times like this.

Extimum:' Oh, that 's right, today I have my first flying lesson". Extimum's mood improved upon remembering this, After all, who wouldn't want to fly?, although he wasn't sure if he would make the Quidditch team in the future, but he sure at least wanted to learn to ride a broom.

So Extimum waited by the Gryffindor door until Hermione came out, even though he got some glances from other students leaving early, he just ignored them.

After a while an animated Hermione and ready to go to the dining room to have breakfast came out the door, as she prepared to go to the stairs, Extimum approached her and gave a little greeting and then took her hand and started walking with naturally with her towards the stairs.

Extimum : "Good morning".

Hermione: "Good morning." Hermione responded reflexively

Hermione: "Wait, hey, what are you doing?". Hermione was surprised that he took her hand and started walking with her as if nothing was happening.

Extimum : "mm, what are you talking about, I only walk with you to go to breakfast". Extimum replied calmly and completely naturally as if it were the most ordinary thing .

Hermione. " yes, but why are you holding my hand ? ". While saying this, Hermione tried to free herself from his grip, but she couldn't, although Extimum's grip was not tight nor was it hurting her, she could not release herself from him and although it was not exactly uncomfortable, the situation made her a little nervous, the development was out of place again, I mean, you don't go and just take someone's hand and don't let go and continue as if nothing happened.

Extimum : " because ... you are mine and I want to go with you :) ". Extimum again calmly replied and smiled a little at the end of his words.

Hermione: " wh -what, what kind of answer is that and what is that again about me being yours." Hermione was a bit caught off guard by his answer.

Extimum did not answer and simply continued walking with her calmly, Hermione on the other hand tried a few more times to free herself , but when she saw that she could not free herself she stopped trying and just accepted it , although she felt a little annoyed inside , he would have to let her go when come to the dining room, because their tables were different.

Along the way they got a few glances, especially from the older students, who directed some significant glances that inexplicably brought a little blush to Hermione's face, Extimum just ignored the glances they received, as for the younger students, they didn't think much about it.

For Extimum, this was an interesting and new experience, feeling the heat, the softness of another skin in contact with yours, beyond that, there were also the emotions he received from her, it was a strangely pleasant feeling for him, although already he had taken her hand yesterday, but since it was a moment of rush I hadn't given much thought to that occasion. He could get used to it if it was all his lineage needed to evolve.

After they reached the dining room and approached the Gryffindor table, Extimum released Hermione's hand and walked over to their table, causing Hermione to breathe a sigh of relief, although she was not particularly bothered by the situation was no less awkward for her.

Extimum approached his table to greet his roommates.

Mitchell : "Hi Extimum , where did you go last night, didn't I see you come back?" Mitchell with his energetic attitude asked after saying hello.

Steve: "yes, tell me, you are not doing strange things at night, right?". Steve quickly continued with his question after Mitchell, using a tone that seemed to hint at something Extimum was unaware of.

Extimum : "eh, stop imagining strange things, I was just lucky and found a private room for myself." Extimum was unaffected by Steve's advances and responded with his ever stoic face.

Mitchell : "Seriously, that's great, oh, right Extimum, look, I introduce you to our other roommate or in your case, ex- roommate , he is Trudor Naipe". Mitchell said while pointing to another boy who was across the table from them.

Trudor was a slightly scrawny Asian boy, but scholarly in appearance, with black hair and eyes.

Extimum also introduced himself and gave a short courtesy talk.

Steve:" Hey, do not you go sit down?".

Extimum:" Oh, i just came to greet you and tell you about my room change, we'll see you in class". Without saying a word after that, Extimum back where he came from and went to the Gryffindor table to sit next to Hermione.

Trudor: "wait, what is he doing? He wouldn't think of sitting at the table in another house, right?".

Mitchell:" yep , it looks like that's what he's doing".

Trudor: " But, won't they tell he anything?".

Steve: "if he's doing it, he probably has a way so they won't tell him anything." Steve said with a thoughtful look and looking deeply at Extimum , Steve wouldn't waste an opportunity to get a gossip.

.

Hermione sat at the Gryffindor table after separating from Extimum and began to help herself to what she would eat for breakfast, as she finished serving herself, Harry and Ron arrived and sat across from her .

Harry: "Hello Extimum". Harry sat up and was a little surprised to see Extimum in front of him, but he didn't care and kept looking at what to eat just like Ron.

Hermione on the other hand, widened her eyes after hearing Harry greet Extimum and quickly glanced in the direction Harry saluted, only to see Extimum sitting right next to her.

Hermione: "When did you get there? No, wait, more importantly , how can you be here?"

Extimum:" What are you talking about? I've always been here with you, as to how can I be here, mmm, I don't see anyone saying anything or yes?".

Hermione gave him a long look, she clearly remembered seeing him walk away in the direction of the Ravenclaw table and had previously seen that there was no one next to her, he just appeared out of nowhere, as for someone to say something, she He looked everywhere, but in fact it was as he said, the Gryffindors did not seem to care and the teachers did not seem to notice, he could only resign himself and continue eating his breakfast.

Naturally Extimum was not always there, as for how he appeared without her noticing and since no one seemed to tell him anything, it is actually very simple, he use an illusion about whether so that people do not notice him, similarly something he use Before, however, he discard his ex-roommates, because it would be strange if he suddenly disappeared or they seemed to suddenly ignore him, as for if any teacher noticed it, he believed that they would not be so focused on all the students and still had confidence in his illusion, as for Dumbledore he didn't know if it would affect him but he guessed that even if he saw him he wouldn't mind as long as he did nothing wrong.

Of course, what neither of them would know at the moment was that in fact, it was not forbidden for students to sit at the table in another house, it is just that due to the usual tense relationship between them, not many did.

Extimum enjoyed his breakfast and after finishing said goodbye and headed to his classes for the day.

.

In an open field next to the castle, the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff students stood in a form side by side and the two houses facing each other like that, leaving a wide empty space between them .

???: "Good afternoon everyone". A woman greeted as she passed through the space between the two houses, she was a middle-aged woman, with gray hair and yellow eyes, wearing a black suit and wearing a silver feather necklace, with a strict face and serious.

All: "Good afternoon, madame hooch ." Everyone saluted in sync, to the Quidditch coach and flight instructor, Madame Rolanda Hooch .
