Hogwarts:Hostile take over.

"Huh?" Casey said, looking up quickly and then flicking his golden hair out of his face.

"Sounds like a right pisser. You have every right to be there, why not just push in. It's not like anyone can really stop you." Elle asked, tossing her head in a very matter of fact way and batting her eyes.

 

"Him? just go in and ignore what Daddy dearest tells him to do? Alex would never do such a thing!"


"Leave him alone Jordan."Lyra said"Up stairs? I dont want to be..."she glanced at Jordan when he wasnt looking "Over heard...some might....over react...and thats the last thing I want."

 

"Well what best for the goose isn't always what's best for the gander, if you get what I mean." Elle giggled malevolently, a sneaky eyebrow raising in a suspicious manner.

"Oh, yeah. Okay." Casey nodded, quickly getting to his feet. Nearly tripping over his laces in the process. "You want to go into your room or something...?" He asked tentatively, aware of how that question might be interpreted all too much thanks to his feelings towards her.

 

she nodded"Its got a lock so..."she got to her feet.

Jordan gave Elle a confused look

 

"What 'Daddy' thinks is best isn't always what's best for their kids." Elle sighed, rolling her eyes at Jordan idiocy. She never could quite believe she'd actually dated the moron, and for quite some time at that.

"Alright." Casey nodded as he headed upstairs, fighting back a blush at the thousand and one ideas of what could happen running through his mind.

 

she opened her bedroom door,it was a typical teenage girls bedroom,pink,with girlie stuff in it,a montain of stuffed animals on her bed,her fluffy ginger cat in the middle of them all,her own bedroom in her own house was far more girlier,she bit her lip

"yeah..well....Alex always does what Albus says so...there!"he stuck his tounge out in a childish manner

 

"Oh god, your cat." Casey said as he entered the room.

"You're a moron."

 

"And your a *****,but you dont see me telling you that every day."he said glaring at her

"Jordan! what have I told you about calling people names?!"Lily snapped"and come out of your grandparents couboard!"

Alex snickered


Lyra picked up the cat "see...Casey wont hurt you..."she said when he hissed at Casey"wow...he really...doesnt take to people..anyway...sit down...where you can find a space."she flung most of the teddies off her bed

 

"I know I am darling, but people love me for it." Elle retorted with a trademark Malfoy smirk creeping across her pink lips.

"Nah, I'm good standing." Casey said, keeping a close on that cat.

 

she stroked the cat before putting him aside"your the only one I know who wont go mental...I hope...so please dont tell anyone what Im about to tell you."

He rolled his eyes

 

"Okay..." Casey replied apprehensively.

 

"Well...you know I havent been feeling well right? and I've been a bit sore here and there? well thats because..."she sucked in a breath"Zane used to hit me...not like pretend...really hit me...and the reason I havent been feeling well is...because...Im pregnant...He um...I didnt want to do it....I dont want to say what he did...."she said she had a habbit of twisting her hands and not looking at someone if she were confession something,when she did look at him,her emerald eyes sparkled with tears that were coming

"what'd you think she's telling him?"Jordan said suddenly

 

"Wha-What...?" Casey stammered weakly, the very idea of someone hurting Lyra hurting him like a stab wound to the heart. He wasn't sure what to do, be angry? Be sad? Go track the b*stard down and skin him alive?

"I have no clue." Elle shrugged. "If it was the other way around I'd know, but eh."

 

she bit her lip again"I dont know what to do....who to turn to...."she whispered

Jordan laughed as he lay on the floor"I know what you mean."

Alex raised a eyebrow"Am I missing something?"

 

Casey sighed and sat down next to her on her bed. Carefully he placed a comforting arm around her shoulders and looked at her. "You know you can tell me anything Ly, you should of told me sooner before it got this far... But now I know, I can help." He said quietly but certainly. He wasn't going to let her suffer any more, he couldn't.

"You haven't noticed?" Elle asked in surprise.

 

"I know I should have....I just didnt want to admitt...that I was...Afraid...not only for me...but for you...you see...Zane's got it into his head that because you've been here with me...that Im cheating on him with you..."she said"he's got such a temper.."


"Noticed what?"


"And Im the moron? you sure Elle?"

 

"I can more then take care of myself, you should know that better then anyone." Casey sighed, tightening his grip slightly in a supportive way.

"I'm starting to wonder myself." She chortled, rasing her eyebrow once more. "You're telling me you haven't noticed the blushing, the stuttering, the tripping or the daydreaming whilst gazing at her?" Elle said in amusement.

 

"Not really....I mostly speak to you...Only really speak to Casey On occasion..."he shrugged

"I know...I know"she said then suddenly she was hugging him,hiding her face on his shoulder,crying"I just didnt want him to hurt you just in case....he said...he said he'd use the unforgivable curses on you..."she hicupped"I didnt want him to do that...I couldnt let him..."

 

"Personally I think it's rather obvious." Elle shrugged. "I'm amazed Lyra hasn't noticed yet."

Casey breathed deeply as he held her close. "Worst he would of done is the Cruciato curse I expect. And I've been through that before and come out fine." He said reassuringly.

 

"I know...I was just worried..."came the weak reply

"when has Lyra ever noticed anything like that?"Jordan said
