HP: I Have "Pure" Magic

Chapter 48:

Dora and I had decided to open our gifts first before breakfast.

So we were sitting under the Christmas tree, opening the gifts.

Hannah and Susan each had give me a copy an interesting book from their family library. One was titled- Elemental Magics. Another was titled- Rare spells for Duels and Fights.

Susan and I shared duelling as a hobby. So I had also sent her a dueling book in found in the room of lost things.

Hannah had noticed my particular interest in uncommon and weird magic, so she had sent me Elemental magic, that's what was written on note attached with it. I had given her a book in which I had written. The tittle was- 'C.T.D. for first years who talented but aren't confident'. CTD is charms transfiguration and defense.

I had just written simple process to practice some of the spells she's having problems with this year. It's just around 30 to 40 pages. I had written it in an hour. Since I've been teaching my friends a lot, these small things don't even need any effort. Hannah has always had a low confidence and self esteem. So she has problems in studies.

While I still going to check more of my gifts Dora had already started making noise. "Oh! This must be a broomstick! Which one is it?!"

*tear* *tear*

She quickly tore the package open and there was a brand new Nimbus 2000 lying there.

"Oh Chris!" She directly hugged me, along with the broom. Actually, I planning to give this her as the Christmas gift, but now that I've changed my plans....

I enjoyed the hug for a few moments but I quickly separated. Keeping her at a juxtaposition, I said, "That's not your gift." I said, while I picked up a jewelry box from the pile. "This is your gift."

"Then why did you put it here?!"

"Well, the thing is, it would have been yours had I not shown you the clear evidences of the troll's presence in the castle."

I'm, of course, talking 'bout the bet we made. It was about whether there was actually a troll in the castle. She gives me a kiss if there actually turns out be one in the school, and I give her a Nimbus 2000, if there isn't.

"Ha! And I had clearly and systematically tore down each one of your evidence through simple reasoning and arguments. Besides, the teachers SAID it was a false alarm." She said, still eyeing the broom.

Anyways, since Dumbledore f*ched me over by keeping it all hush-hush, I had to show her other evidences.

She was like, 'Alright, whatever. Here's your kiss.' And proceeded to give me a peck on the cheek. When stopped her and made it clear that I wanted a kiss to the lips, she flipped out and and showed me that she's not a lawyer's daughter for nothing.

But, she didn't mention anything about me losing the bet, since she thought I was just joking about giving her a Nimbus 2000. She didn't want to waste my money since she didn't know I was loaded yet.

"Anyways, as I was saying, since neither of us won the bet, it's best that we both take what we wanted. What do say? Do. you. want. this baby or not?" I asked while shaking the Nimbus in front of her.

"Look up". I said , while pointing up with the Broom.

"A mistletoe?!" Exclaimed Dora. Yeah, There was a mistletoe hanging right above us. Of course, it's hanging place was... 'adjusted' a little bit by yours truly.

Suddenly, a slow romantic tune started playing in the background.

Looking at the situation she was in, she couldn't help but exclaim,

"You....You are such a Slytherin. How the hell are you in Ravenclaw?!" She asked.

Inwardly, I was thinking- Girl, you were supposed to ask that question when my tongue slithers into your mouth. Though I'm also good at 'claw'-ing.

While Outwardly, I just smiled and replied without thinking, "Don't you already know it? How else do you think I'm a millionaire before 12?"

Lol, if she could read my mind right now, she'd definitely give me beating. But....then I had a sudden thought. 'What is she thinking right now?'

I had wondered the same thing many times before. But right now, I just didn't think anything and entered her mind. Legilimency doesn't exactly let you read whatever you want to read. It let's you see and feel the target's memories and you have to interpret them on your own.

I wanted to know would I really get a kiss right now or it's not the time yet, So, I asked, "So, am I getting my first kiss or not?" and then I leaned even closer to her.

Legilimency requires a lot of control over both, your own mind and magic to perform it. Both of which, I had in spades. I made eye contact with Dora and quickly delved into her mind. I imagined my magic being separated into thin strands of strings, passing right through her shields and delving into her surface thoughts to know- what exactly was she thinking right now? I read her surface thoughts.

I saw a younger Dora, standing in front a stocky guy with red hair and freckles. She was feeling happy. Then the red haired guy said something to Dora.

I felt Dora's annoyance over whatever the dude had said. Then she used her metamorphagus abilities to make her skin covered with scales. The dude's gaze changed. He now looked at Dora like he was obsessed.

I then felt Dora forcefully stopping the memory right there and starting to think something else.

'Not yet! I need to see this!'

I traced the memory back to where and stopped and started it again- Through Dora's feeling of discomfort, I could guess that this wasn't the first time he had asked such a strange request. Then, the guy stepped closer to Dora, began caressing Dora's face. I felt Dora's feeling of finding this creepy. Dora took a step back, but there was a wall, the guy went for the kiss and-

*BOOM*

3rd person POV :

Dora looked at Chris, who was asking for a kiss. This guy was far too devious! She clearly remembers that the mistletoe was NOT hanging where it's hanging right now. And when did he start dad's record player?! It's started playing 'Careless Whisper'.

This guy certainly has a character. Dora still remembers the him saying he won't be doing his homework for long when they had met for the first time in the room of requirements, . End results? He hasn't had to do his own homework even once after the first week. And then she remembered him mentioning that he'd get his kiss soon enough.

Looking at her weakness- a racing broom. Plus the mistletoe hanging above her head and the romantic music playing in the background. Dora wondered if she there was any point in resisting.

No! She still had to resist. There were so many reasons to! First of all, they had such a big age difference! She's doesn't want to be called a pedophile.

'Even if I like him, I have to- WAIT NO! I don't like him!' She quickly changed her thoughts.

Then there was the fact that she would be going for Auror training right after Hogwarts... Just when she was furiously trying to think of more excuses, she heard Chris's voice.

"So, am I getting my first kiss or not?" and then he leaned even closer to her.

As Dora look at their close proximity and she heard him mentioning his first kiss, Dora couldn't help but remember the time when her own first kiss was almost taken away.

That Charlie Weasley!

They were good friend before. She remembered being very happy for going to her first date when he asked her out. He was nice all day long. And then, at the end, he asked her to grow scales on her body.

They were friends before, so he had asked her to do this a few times before. Even though she didn't like it, since they had such a good time, she thought she could do at least this much for him. He then looked at her with barely contained lust and obsession.

Anyway, no need to think about that jerk. She stopped herself from remembering the unpleasant memories. She was too naive to think that he was different, that he had not befriended her for her metamorphagus abilities. His brother, Bill had once helped her out when he saw a senior year Slytherin trying to take advantage of her. She had thought that he was good.

Anyways, he had gone too far, thinking that he could get away it. As soon as he had forced her to the wall, her training forged diffenses had kicked in instictively, and her knee had cracked something....

While Dora was lost in her thoughts, she suddenly heard loud noise. For one second, she saw something that seemed very unreal to her. She saw saw a blood red light bursting out from all over Chris's body, his hairs blowing upwards, like they were being blown by wind, glowing in red colour. His irises and pupils were also glowing in crimson.

Due to their close proximity, the energy also hit her, though it didn't do anything to her. Infact, it seemed to give her a sense of protection. But...for some unknown reason, seeing the red light, Dora felt chills run down her spine.

This all happened in just a second, making Dora think that she was just hallucinating. When she saw Chris looking at her with eyes full of concern the very next second.

"Yes Dora, that was just a hallucination. You're watching too much muggle fantasy movies." She heard Chris say, his voice sounding strangely convincing.....

A.N.: A big one. Around 1700 words. What happened just now? I swear that the last bit wasn't what it looks like. Also what was the red light? Get me more power stones so that I have the fuel to write more.
