Thoughts: Italics

Elvenia tiptoed down the dim lit corridor, her breath shallow as she moved away from the Astronomy Tower. The night had been perfect for stargazing but now she was painfully aware of how late it had gotten. Past curfew. Her heart raced at the thought of getting caught.

"I can't get caught….not now" she muttered to herself, carefully avoiding the spots where she knew the floorboards creaked.

As Elvenia rounded a corner, her heart nearly stopped. She collided with someone. Really not minding the pain from the collision, panic surged through her as she gasped, fearing the worst.

Oh no, a professor!

Before she could gather herself, there was a loud crash. The girl in front of her had dropped all her belongings, books, quills and ink scattering across the floor. The noise echoed down the corridor, making Elvenia’s heart pound even harder.
Without thinking, she dropped to her knees, frantically gathering up the girl’s scattered items. “Oh no, oh no, oh no…” she muttered under her breath, her fingers working as fast as they could.

Without thinking twice, Elvenia grabbed the girl's hand, her grip firm yet reassuring. "We have to run!" she whispered urgently, her blue eyes wide with panic. She didn’t wait for a response, tugging the girl down the hallway with her. "Come on, before someone hears us!" Elvenia pulled her along, trying to run fast without making any more noise.

The sound of footsteps behind them made her run a bit more faster, her mind racing with only one thought- get to the Ravenclaw tower. They couldn’t afford to get caught.

231/200|being tugged by @Elvenia Moonshadow

𝓣 he “perfect” or “professer” was actually a girl. Yes! No detention today! Her dark blue eyes were alive with panic, and her long brown hair shone in the moonlight shining through crystal clear castle windows. As Brookline scooped up her items, the girl helped too, muttering, “Oh no, oh no, oh no…”

Yes, oh no. We are gonna get caught! Brookline reached for her closed-thank you, God-sliver inkwell, and stood up. Brookline gently placed her inkwell into her bag, when the girl gripped her hand tightly. She protested, almost letting go, but the girl was quite strong and her firm grip also seemed reassuring in some shape or form.

“Hey!” She did not waste to cry out, but regretted the exclaim. What if a professor heard her? Then she quieted, lest a professor would hear her. Brookline followed the girl, being tugged around up the stairs. How did this girl, who she didn’t know, knew which house she was? Then the sound of footsteps that Brookline hadn’t heard before, grew quite louder. She knew she was gonna gasp so she held the only free hand she had to muffle her gasp. The footsteps only made the girl go faster, panic surged through both girls as they hurried to the Ravenclaw tower.

Would a professor find the pair, with a detention, or will they reach the tower, unscathed, with zero detentions?

Elvenia's heart thundered in her chest as she pulled the girl along, her thoughts racing with panic. They couldn’t afford to waste a second. The footsteps behind them sounded distant, but she knew better than to rely on that. The castle had an eerie way of making everything echo, especially when you didn’t want it to.

Ughh why today? She thought.

She risked a glance at the girl beside her. In the dim light, she noticed the girl's wide, panicked eyes and the way her brown hair bounced with each hurried step. Whoever she was, they were both in this mess together now. Elvenia had no time to feel guilty for dragging her along, even though she did...but she knew getting caught wasn’t an option.

"Come on!" she hissed through shallow breaths, her own legs burning as Elvenia led them through the familiar twists and turns, her feet knowing the way back to the Ravenclaw tower almost instinctively. Elvenia’s grip on the girl's hand remained firm, her mind fixated on one thing, reaching the safety of the Ravenclaw tower as quickly as possible.

The footsteps behind them suddenly grew louder, too close for comfort. Elvenia’s heart nearly leapt into her throat. "Oh no, they’re catching up!" The thought of detention circled in her mind, but even worse was the embarrassment of getting caught like this, late at night after the curfew.

Just ahead, she spotted the familiar eagle-shaped knocker, relief flooding her. They were so close. "We're almost there" she whispered, her voice barely audible as they neared the tower. Elvenia’s eyes darted around, searching the shadows for any sign of a professor or a prefect.

Finally, they reached the door, and Elvenia slowed down just enough to catch her breath. "Okay, lets be quiet" she murmured, raising a finger to her lips before letting go of the girl’s hand. With trembling fingers, she knocked gently, praying the riddle wouldn’t take too long to solve.
Seconds felt like hours.

𝓙n first year, Brookline had never gotten a detention. Never. Zero detentions. But today, in second year, Brookline was cursing under her soft scared breath, and she swore, that her and this girl, whom she’d only seen scarcely last year, two Ravenclaws were about to caught and punished for violating Rule Number One: Curfew.

And on accident! She fell asleep! Surely the professor or perfect would understand when a girl falls asleep in a book, in the library, way after curfew..? Fat chance! They’d think she be lying. But she wouldn't be, that's the problem.

Brookline followed the girl, unlike she could go any where else. Either it may as well be the world ending slightly to the right, or go left with a girl who held her hostage but she ain’t dying. I really think I should go with this girl, even if she did try to kidnap me. She made her legs go faster, and in quite ungrateful response, her legs tried to protest with screaming burns and sore muscles.

Once Brookline caught sight of the blue eagle knocker, beads of sweat ran down her pale face, as if they were almost beads of sweaty relief. The Ravenclaw girl whispered to Brookline, and the Welsh girl hissed, “Shut up!” And when the girl did, she slowly raised a finger to her lips, a signal for absolute silence. Brookline nodded at the girl, narrowing her eyes. Then the girl let go of Brookline’s wrist, softly knocking the door with shaky fingers, solving the riddle.

To Brookline it felt as if she was staring at a clock, waiting for the minutes to fly by. Seconds felt like minutes, and she expected a shadow, any minute now, to fling itself onto Brookline, scaring the heck of her and she’d scream bloody murder, waking the whole, entire school.

It was taking to long. How slow can this girl even be? Like, we’re gonna end up falling into dentention. Brookline thought, decided to take the girls’s future in her own hands.

Once the girl cracked the riddle, and quietly creaked the door open, Brookline whipped her head this way and that way before she’d push the girl inside, hoping the girl wouldn’t fall onto the floor. Once the girl was in the door, the Welsh Ravenclaw would hop in the safety of the Ravenclaw common room, and swiftly but quite quietly shut the door. Turning around where her back could touch the door, Brookline slid down the door, and landed on her rump, sitting on the cold common room floor, panting heavily.
