What Goes Around... (open)

[bugock]

Safira sat atop a desk, gaze traveling to the ceiling. She had been spending a lot more time alone of late, especially after she had found out that Isaac and Gabriella Weasley were to be married in the summer, and that her father had been sentenced to five years in Azkaban for revealing himself to a muggle woman he had been having an affair with. Safira had been figuring that it served him right for what he had done to their family, but all the same, her father in the wizard prison for five years...

She had gotten a bit closer to her mother of late, she kept telling her that she should file for a divorce, but she insisted that she still loved Draco. Safira was, quite frankly, disgusted at that. What did she care, anyways? Her father had blankly told her that he hated her once she had told him that she had been sorted into Gryffindor. He deserves it, thought Safira, not paying any mind to the fact that the door was opening.

Jane walked in. She wanted someplace where she could be alone. She saw another girl already there. Why did she need to be there? How come she never got time to herself? Jane shot her an evil glare and turned to leave.

[bugock]

Safira finally looked down when the girl had walked in, she was giving her a dirty look. She frowned, what was that all about? She decided that she was not going to let the girl just leave, and that she was going to find out why she was being so rude. Could someone really tell, just by looking at her, that she was a Malfoy? "Hey," Safia began, getting off the desk and taking a few steps to catch up with the girl. "I'm Safira, what's your name?"

[neigh]

Jane glared at her again. "Jane" she answered in a rude tone. "I don't see why you would care. Who cares about anyone but themselves? I mean seriously. Since when?" she asked confused.

[bugock]

Safira was taken aback by the girl's rudeness, she had not been mean, had she? Was it really that easy to tell that she was a Malfoy? She had on her Gryffindor tie, didn't she? "Plenty of people do," said Safira, pretending to be unfazed by how Jane had snapped at her. "Since the beginning of time, I suppose."

[neigh]

"Yeah right" she replied angerly. This girl must not really care at all. She was only pretending to bother her. It was working.

She didn't have the slightest idea that Safira was a Malfoy. She was like this to everyone.

[bugock]

"Um," said Safira, now completely unsure of what to do. She normally wasn't awkward around people, she knew how to do social things, but it was hard to react when someone was just mean for no reason. "I'll just, uh, see you later, then." said Safira, heading toward the door. She hesitated at the open door a moment, then turned back. "Nice to meet you, Jane." Safira said quietly, then turned to exit.

[neigh]

Finlay she was alone. Just what she had wanted. Wasn't it? She felt kind of bad. Like she should want to talk to her. She couldn't understand why. Of course she didn't want to talk to her. Why did she feel like she wanted to. She wished she understood herself.

[bugock]

Safira closed the door gently behind herself, wanting to open it again and go talk to Jane. Perhaps she was just having a really bad day and needed someone to talk to. But if she did, I don't think that she would have shoved me away like that, thought Safira, then figured that everyone neede some time alone, then walked away.

[igloogirl]

Gabriella walked down the corridor, her bag slung easily over her shoulder. She had just finished her last class of the day and was headed for the common room. But she wouldn't do homework yet, no she would probably go hunting just after sunset then do her homework. Gabriella spotted Safira Malfoy and smiled. "Hey Safira, what's new?" she asked.

[bugock]

Safira snapped quickly out of thoughts about why Jane could have possibly been so rude when someone said her name. She looked up to see Gabriella, then smiled. Safira liked her, and was glad that she and her older brother, Isaac, were to be married this coming summer. Isaac had had several girlfriends before Gabriella, none of which she had liked very much. "Oh, hi Gabby," said Safira. "Nothing really, just all the work for OWLs."

[igloogirl]

Gabriella groaned slightly. That had reminded her, she needed to start thinking about the N.E.W.T.s coming up in April. "Ah, the OWLs," she replied with a knowing nod. "Pain in the butt. But I'm sure you'll do fine, they're annoying but not terribly hard." As for the NEWTs, Gabriella knew she should've already been studying. But there had been so many things on her mind, she had simply forgotten.

[bugock]

Safira gave a small smile. "That's what nearly everyone in sixth or seventh year says-" she began. "I suppose if even Isaac says that they must not be too bad." She had meant the last part a little sarcastically. Of course, Isaac wasn't necessarily stupid, but he wasn't the smartest person in the world either. Safira ran a hand through her hair, to keep it from falling into her eyes.

[igloogirl]

Gabriella laughed at that, thinking Safira was probably right. Isaac had probably done just fine on them, considering all the NEWT classes he was in. "It's really not, Isaac speaks the truth," she replied, still chuckling. Of course, Safire seemed quite smart, Gabriella had no doubt that she would do wonderfully.

[bugock]

Safira gave one of her infamous smiles, broad and dazzling. That was the only thing that she did not mind about being a Malfoy, her entire bloodline was notorious for good looks. That and her Ice Elemental. "I suppose that NEWTs are equally stressful, though," said Safira, unsure of how else to make conversation.
