Chapter Sixty Six

The time between Breakfast and my first class was a blur, I had been in a rush and kind of went by the task. Get bag, stuff bag with all my books. Take my cauldron with pansy engraved, hurry to the potions classroom, sit down in the middle of the classroom and open my books and get some parchment paper for notes.

This was my morning, I did just hurried around everywhere with a jittery feeling. Besides that, it felt like I was being watched and I felt like every action was monitored. I had a feeling it had to do with Professor Quirrel but he was never near me. I think it could have been a test, an evaluation to see how far I could go without noticing. I had to appear normal like I am not special like I am not able to feel the extra gazes.

In the classroom it was empty and I placed my cauldron down as got my vials and equipment ready for class. I placed the parchment neatly against my black quill which I had bought in Daigon Alley a few days before. I needed it to be neat for my mind to be at rest. Normally things like this did not bother me but after feeling the anxiety from being watched it became a different story. No matter what I could not underestimate the Dark lord and should not lay my abilities to high. Once I start being too cocky I will lose because unlike Harry I was not supposed to be the hero of the story.

I was supposed to be a sidekick villainess, who would torment people and bully them to cover up her own insecurities. To cover the fact that she knew she would never be anything more than a friend to Draco, to be able to buy anything she wanted but not getting what she needed. The right attention.

The class started filling in and Milicent came rushing in behind Daphne, both seemed to not like each other as they rushed towards the death next to me, I heard some shuffling before someone took their seat next to me. Both Daphne and Milicent glared at the person seated next to me. Trixy Carrow sat next to me with a small grin as she looked like she won the lottery. I merely raised my eyebrows and waited for her to initiate the conversation.

I looked in the corner of my eyes while Daphne and Milicent sat next to each other behind us. I heard some grumbling but paid it no heed. "I don't think we got to meet properly before, I am Trixy Carrow," Trixy said holding her hand out to me. I stared at her hand for a bit before shaking it. "I presume you already know who I am, " I said with a bored tone, I knew it sounded arrogant but at this point, everyone basically knew who I was.

Trixy paid my distant behaviour no mind as she tried to strike up another conversation. "Sooo, are you excited for Potions, I heard you are really good at it and I have never done it before so I am kind of scared. My parents do not allow me to do potions as they heard stories about young children burning half of their faces off and never recovering. Anyways besides that my family has been more on the side of seers rather than potions. they believe more in what can not be explained instead of what can be explained," She ranted.

I closed my eyes to hide my annoyance, this was going to be a long day.
