The Student(A short, semi-sweet,semi-bitter, Harry Potter love story) - Diana LeRoy (good beach reads TXT) 📗

"Its just as I suspected" a certain voice hidden a dark corner said quietly to himself "So the rumors are true, that she does posess the second philosopher's stone in that locket of hers she never takes off", the voice had belong to no other than Lord Voldemort who had come to Hogwharts in disguise when he heard the young heiress, the last Flamel had transferred to Hogwharts from Beauxbaton's.  To the naked eye it would be hard to notice, but if one looked closely enough the second philosopher's stone Celestia possesed was hidden in a thin silver locket that she wore tucked underneath her blouse, but the silver chain that  the locket was attached to could clearly be seen around her swan like neck, Voldemort knew she kept that stone in that locket for he saw her opening the locket to make sure the stone was okay. And it was okay, at least for now. Voldemort smiled "Rest well, I have plans for you Celestia, descendent of Nicholas....."

Day Two at Hogwarts: 

By now Cesare had memorized the entire layout of Hogwarts, for should he not be at Celeste's side when she was in danger he would have no trouble tracking her down, for he had memorized everything about the woman he served. From the sound of her voice to the sandalwood with a hint of jasmine perfume she wore, he knew everything about her just about, therefore unlike other agents he didn't need to put a tracker on her to locate her in times of danger. Although this was a good trait he possessed, it was also an bad one because he knew her too well and for too long he loved her too much, it was a painful job the one he had but her father had saved him after he lost everything and because of that he felt indebted to her family so he stayed dutiful to the heiress no matter how emotionally charged the job could be.

Meanwhile Professor Snape was in his private chambers feeling as though he may lose sanity. He had loved a Flamel a long time ago and unfortunately this spoiled little heiress just had to resemble Prudence and even more unfortunate he felt inappropriate desires stirring inside him, desires he couldn't control. Lord not even the strongest potion to repel desire could help him now. He put his head in his hands. Whatever he did he wouldn't become too entangled in her life at Hogwarts he promised himself quietly. Meanwhile in the Slytherin common room, a certain blonde heir was pondering on how to win the heart of the girl who loved him since childhood. He didn't know it back then but slowly as she was living in France before transferring schools, he had realized that he not only missed her, he loved her. For those five years she was living in France attending Beauxbaton's he could only see how she blossomed through tabloids, when she was in them that was for she had spent half her time in the public eye and other half....well god only knows.

He saw the curves that she developed in the photos that showed her wearing body forming dresses at events that were clearly meant for the wealthy, her hair had grown long and beautiful as well, he could never get enough of those strawberry blonde waves of hers, it was one of her assets that Malfoy admired the most, so much that there were times he wanted to pull her away from the students who always surrounded her, and kiss her passionately while running his fingers to those perfect waves of hers. Soon you will be mine, Celestia Flamel....

By the end of the week both Celestia and Cesare were well acquainted with everything Hogwarts- from its rich history, to its vast layout and design of the dorms and the school, including its most popular student....Harry Potter, the boy who had survived an attack from "you know who, that you can't/shouldn't mention". A few students raised their eyebrows in awe; two famous student in one school certainly would make school interesting from now on they thought. It didn't take long for the two "school celebrities" to encounter either in fact they had their very first encounter at the start of Celestia's second week at Hogwarts. It all began on Tuesday, when she had gone to the study hall with Cesare to study for an upcoming astronomy test when she had saw him walk in, immediately she noticed the scar that was just barely visible with his bangs covering the majority of it "My lord...... your Harry Potter I presume?" she stated allowed making everyone including Harry turn into her direction "Come closer, Mr. Potter, I'd like to properly greet you, as would my.....friend Cesare."

 He came forward and stretched out his hand "Celestia, it is an honor to meet you" he said with a warm smile. Suddenly she did something no one expected, she gently brushed his bangs aside to see the scare for herself then pulled back "So the rumors about you surviving are true, I must say you do have your fathers eyes" she stated with a sweet smile. Harry blushed and pulled back a bit "How do you know my father?" he inquired she in turn told him that was not something she could tell him in front of all the students and that if he wanted to know, he should meet her in the Slytherin common room "And if any Slytherin students ask tell them I invited you". And with that Celestia and her bodyguard went off to the library to find some new spell books that she could study from in her free time.  However since everyone in the study hall saw the somewhat intimate to the naked eye encounter between the two famous students it wasn't long before rumors about Harry and Celestia spread like fire throughout the school and every student passed it on from one pair of ears to another and it wasn't long before they reached the ears of Severus and Draco's ears, frankly neither of them was ecstatic to say the least. 

By the end of her second week Draco had gotten annoyed with all these spun tales about "The love affair between the Flamel heiress and Harry Potter, the one who survived you know what". Surely Celestia would not pursue a relationship with a guy like him, he thought. She's supposed to love me or so he thought, that was a long time ago that she said those three little words to him. Walking on the ever-changing grand staircase and looking at the animated portraits as he ascended gave him a sense of calm as he was trying to collect his thoughts and feelings about the rumor and the feelings he kept in his heart for his Celestia, the girl who brought brilliant sunshine into his life ever since she came to the school less than two weeks ago. He arrived at the Slytherin dungeon, said the password and walked into the common room. He paced the common room thinking of what he should say to her, he wanted to confess his feelings the first day he saw her but that was not possible with the dozens of crowds surrounding her which happened to include some old Beauxbaton's classmates and some of Durmstrang's "military like" male students, which he had to admit it made him slightly jealous as they were flirting with HIS Celestia on a daily basis!

 It was bad enough Hogwarts had to share the school with others&Celestia and the fact that they never left her alone or stopped flirting with her for one second as though they were some super fan club, and that Harry Potter...damn him, that’s it he could take it no more, from this day on she is mine he vowed and he went to the girls dormitory where he knew she was to make that clear to her. Luckily for him Cesare was in the male dormitory, he dismissed the other girls, promising them tea and raspberry scones with icing in the common room for he needed to talk to Celestia and he needed to do it alone. I believe you know why I'm here he started as he sat on a bed across from hers, to face her as she was sitting on her own. Let me make one thing clear, "Celestia I love you, there I said it, I've always loved you and probably always will, please do me the great honor of being mine.....um I meant my girlfriend and I would be even more honored if you attended the Yule Ball with me this winter". She cried tears of joy as her hands covered her face but her blush could not be hidden from Draco.

"Draco....I .....Yes!!Yes I'll go out with you and go to the Yule Ball with you! And please that Harry Potter rumor isn't true in fact I'll publically announce in the dining hall tomorrow at lunch so everyone will know" and with that she leaned in and kissed him. Draco was happy too, he'd be able to fulfill his father's wishes while keeping his beloved's heart in-tact in the process. And so on the first day of her 3rd week at school Celestia and Draco, hand in hand proudly announced that they were an official couple and that the rumors about her and Draco were false. For some reason that day Severus had found out that he no longer held feelings of desire for her which put him at ease because now he wouldn't be driven to insanity before the school
