she hadn't meant to fall asleep in professor binn's class, she usually tried to be as attentive of a student as she could possibly be. she was already behind arriving as a fifth year, there was no need to make it worse. but this time it was different, it had been a long night fighting against poachers, avoiding ashwinders and helping whoever it was that needed her ( why was it that there were so many people that had needed her that night?!) and she hadn't gotten a blink of sleep. luck would have it that the little sleep which had been had during the history of magic class was interrupted by nightmares. nightmares which haunted her --- nightmares that repeated over and over in her head. the blood and gore that had been shed when she was only a child, when she was only a fifth year had startled her awake, tears streaming down her face as she looked around (she hadn't even realized she had been crying). "i--i..." she mumbles realizing she was caught. "i just--nightmare."

“Her heart sank into her shoes as she realized at last how much she wanted him. No matter what his past was, no matter what he had done. Which was not to say that she would ever let him know, but only that he moved her chemically more than anyone she had ever met, that all other men seemed pale beside him.”

she wonders if perhaps the universe has a rather crude sense of humor. out of everybody that could have found her, why did it have to be him. it's not like her to stop responding, he was right. even at their worst moments she had always been there, always a letter away or if not-- at least always sitting near him during their classes. mariette never too far away or too upset to completely avoid him. this time was different, this time she had taken every necessary precaution to make sure she didn't have to see or interact with him--taking every precaution that is besides making sure he didn't know her as well as he did . she wonders if that's where she's failed, if perhaps she's allowed him to see too much of her, to know too much of her, because suddenly he was there in front of her in the one place where she had sworn she wouldn't be found.
"i didn't mean not to respond, i must have not gotten your letters." a lie, she wonders if he can see through it. "i wanted to be alone to think and then it started pouring rain." too simple of an answer. words followed by a shrug.
˜”*°•. Not even in the slightest did it bother him - walking in the forbidden forest , however forbidden , such a common occurrence despite the rain. The solitude serene - mind finally finding rest , the trees , the silence, the place itself capable of fighting even the worst of demons . But not this time . She hadn’t answered his letters , he hadn’t seen her at all lately . And perhaps it was the latest argument that’d caused the rift - he was still worried, though . Knowing all that she went through, all that she faced, well - he’d wanted to find her . So , when he saw her standing in the rain , when he heard that question, well for a moment he said nothing . ❝ Well , it’s not like you to stop responding . ❞ Tone that didn’t necessarily betray annoyance - for sure there was plenty of bitterness, though. The sound of raindrops falling against foliage only grew louder as the seconds went by . The pause following his words covered by nothing but the storm . ❝ What are you doing out here ? ❞

he's dragging her down the hill with such an URGENCY that hunger stirs within her in anticipation. the sensation is familiar to her, it's something she's felt alone in her room when she's lost in her own FANTASIES. the intensity of the moment almost makes her question if maybe this is a dream that's been induced by her imagination. or perhaps, she thinks, she's indulged in one too many drinks and she's seeing things differently than what they truly are.
no…that can't be. it all seems too vivid, the WEIGHT of his grip, the ELECTRICITY in the air, and the TENSION around them assured her that this wasn't her mind playing tricks on her. her attention is now fully placed on the events unfurling, focusing on how he's KISSING her and how his hands feel while they're HOLDING her waist, how much better they feel when they're SQUEEZING at her breasts, and definitely on how his thigh is between her legs and she so desperately craves it was something else between them. but, she takes what she can get and the friction feels good if she focuses hard on it, especially when her body starts reacting on its own and her hips are grinding her moistness upon it, begging him for MORE. her eyes closed TIGHTLY as she enjoys the sensation, avoiding having to look at him in his face when she's so WANTONLY using his thigh to bring herself pleasure.
----- 𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐬 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧'𝐭 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐡𝐞𝐫. he is too old to be stringing anybody along. he is usually very clear in his intentions. if he intends to bed someone, there really is nothing more to it. the smirk doesn’t drop from his face, if anything his smile broadens as he takes her hand. this time, he is the one pulling her down the hill.
his view is hazy. the alcohol making it difficult to think about the path forward, but about what he is about to do to her. his attraction to her is a secret he has kept close to his chest for a very long time. he thought it was wrong. maybe even perverted to think anything more of her. he’s missed every signal from her that the feeling is mutual. he feels like an idiot, but it is better too late than never.
pulling her off of the main road, he stumbles over rocks and tall grass, but he carries on further down the trail until the gate comes into view. the arch of the entrance is dark, remote . . . no one would see. no one would suspect anything.
he is amazed that he is still standing when they get there, considering the amount of alcohol he indulged in. he doesn’t want to waste any time. they can’t afford to. the last thing he needs is for anybody to come looking for them, even though this spot will be the last they check.
pulling her into the shadows, it is quite the height to duck down to reach her. if she thought he wasn’t being serious before, that will change now that his lips have seized hers. the taste of her lip balm and the nervousness on her tongue awaits him, and in an eager mood to please, his tongue dips inside to lap every drop of her. he is drunk and clumsy, but it is evident this isn’t his first time wooing a woman with his mouth.
his hands grip her waist possessively as he pushes her to the cold, stone wall. they only fall moments later to hike her skirt up to her waist, and he presses his thigh between her legs to part them. while one hand travels to caress her thigh, the other hand rises to her chest, squeezing it harshly in his surge of passion.

"you should know better than to sneak ingredients from professor sharp, he's got eyes in the back of his head. i found that much out thanks to our fwooper feather experiment on my first day of class." although, perhaps the blame for him finding out is more so due to the explosion that had followed the retrieval of the feather than the taking of the feather itself. "besides, if you need ingredients, i'd be more than happy to help find them for you." or if not find then buy, she had met some great vendors throughout her exploration some which had even the rarest ingredients available in their stock.

"Oh yeah, I've got weekend detention for the next three weekends, Professor Sharp told my aunt that I was sneaking ingredients for my potions from his private stores and she wasn't happy." The boy sighed. "It'll be fine. I can work on thinking new potions during the detentions."

she had to restrain herself from bursting into laughter, her brown eyes sparkling with amusement at the other girl's reaction. as a fifth-year student, classes had become the least of her worries. her time was consumed by the relentless pursuit of not only saving herself but also protecting those around her. the weight of her responsibilities had fallen hard on her shoulders, any worries that may have normally been had about academic performance were pushed to the side, instead focusing on the challenges she faced that extended further than her classwork. "you could say that. i'm sure things are not easy here in...new jersey, either."
fifth year. she's silent for a moment, trying to figure out if she means being five years old or being in fifth grade (she doesn't even think about the way it probably means neither of those options) she finally let's out a loud sigh before she speaks, "are you talking about school?" she definitely knows that feeling, but for her it wasn't even the school itself - it was all the drama that came along with being a teenage girl. now that the conversation has shifted away from taissa, her body language is suddenly more open. "are classes really that bad over there?"

a flush of irritation surged through her entire body as she sensed his presence. in that moment, he had the power to take what he wanted (she worried it would be her life) and leave. but he chose not to, leaving her with a sinking feeling that whatever followed would not bode well. if he preferred words over a battle, she knew those words must hold immense significance.
her tongue flicked nervously across dry lips, her gaze fixed upon him, meticulously observing his every move. her hand tightly gripped her wand, ready to defend herself if needed. 'YOU ARE THE GOLDEN GIRL OF HOGWARTS,' his words echoed in her ears. to anyone else, those words might bring joy and a sense of pride, but to her, they were merely a haunting reminder. a reminder of everything that had transpired and the events that would lay ahead, which she had yet to uncover.
"what could YOU provide me, victor?" she asked, her voice laced with skepticism. "Your connections mean nothing to me, and i doubt your information would be of any use either. as for protection, your dearest group of BRUTES can tell you that i fare well enough on my own. do you underestimate my abilities?" her eyes narrowed at him, he has withdrawn his wand but instead of following his suit, her wand now was fully in view, serving as a warning. the trust she once had towards others had been shattered, and since then, caution had become her companion. he had never proven himself to be anything but a thorn in her side. what use would he have to her now?
----- 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐧, 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐲 𝐞𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐲. but, this seems too unfair. he has ambushed her, with no time to think or react. where is the fun in that ?? so, his wand lowers but never leaves his firm grip. moving along the outskirts of the clearing, he nears her. watching her movements carefully.
“ you have been wrecking havoc amongst my camps. amongst the poachers, miss chevalier, “ he begins. his voice is cold, yet cautious. he knows what she is capable of. survivors of her escapades have reported it with fine, pointed, gruesome detail. but, despite this, he needs her. “ stop snivelling. you are the golden girl of hogwarts. you have it all at your finger tips. extraordinary power waiting for you at the end of this road. “
finally, as he nears her, just close enough where he could reach out and touch her shoulder if he chose to, he slips his wand into the inside pocket of his jacket. “ i was not lying to you when i offered an alliance between us. we could be very useful to each other. i have valuable connections, information that would help you greatly. you deserve protection and you won’t find that with the ministry, but you would find that with the ashwinders. if we come to an agreement. “

where should you be kissed?
palm.
you give and give. you are a gentle heart, broken but still standing... always lending a hand for those who need it, expecting nothing in return. you deserve someone taking your hand and kissing your open palm, the hands which have selflessly helped so many others.

when it rains, it pours. she stood resolutely outside, the rain pouring down relentlessly. her hair clung to her face, and her clothes seemed to have gained six times their weight in an instant. yet, she remained unmoving. all she wished for was solitude, a moment alone with her thoughts and the only place that came to mind where she could find solace was beyond the boundaries of hogwarts. the location of her choosing (and perhaps not the brightest one) was the forbidden forest. and so, there she was alone, until the sound of footsteps approached, disrupting the tranquility. startled, she turned to face the intruder, her brown eyes looking warily at the unexpected visitor. "what do you want?" she questioned, her voice filled with a mix of curiosity and caution.
