devil in disguise - nicholas forester

Oh how the day was young! Nick was enjoying himself in an empty transfiguration classroom with a fifth year. He noticed her a while ago, of how she looked at him in every class they had, which was only one. It was starting to drive him mad, but he just couldn’t ignore her anymore. He was thinking of doing something about her little obsession as he walked around the sixth floor when she had walked past him, neither of them knowing. But then she stopped and turned around. The sudden feeling of being watched made Nick to stop walking and to turn around. The girl was blushing and acted as if she wanted to say something to him, but couldn’t find the words. He thought that she just looked like the most adorable little thing he had seen all day so he walked up to her, with that smile he has and took her hand. That was when he dragged her into the room and began to make out. It was nice, but every time he stopped, she seemed to want more. That was perfectly understandable, but Nick looked annoyed and moved himself from in front of her and opened the door. He had these things before, the girls wanted more, more of him, more of a relationship. Nick doesn’t float that boat. She first looked confused, then surprised, and then suddenly it hit her. She looked upset, as if she was ready to hit him and cry at the same time. As a matter of a fact, she did try to hit him, but Nick knew better. His hand shot up and grabbed it before it could touch him and smiled evilly at her.”Go.” At that final word, she glared, tears starting to flow. She grunted as she rammed her foot on his and left in a hurry.

Nicholas sighed heavily, ignoring the pain and took a look in the hall. It was oddly empty, so he figured that the previous class had ended, leaving Care of Magical Creatures. He smiled as he stepped inside once again, shutting the door. The old room was small and smelled strongly of dust. That made a lot of sense especially since it was everywhere . Nick moved his hands toward his shirt, unbuttoning it by three buttons. He hated school uniforms; hence, he refused to wear a tie. His footsteps made a lightly click on the stone flooring as he walked toward a desk. There were some books on it, but not enough to peak his interest, so he kept walking until he reached the teacher’s desk. He smiled and he sat down and lifted his feet on the desk. The slytherin folded his hands over his stomach neatly, imagining himself in power. It was quite amusing.

He was just about to leave when he heard the door open and close. He didn’t dare move as his blue eyes darted after the source. However, he couldn’t stop himself from smiling mischievously as he watched his study buddy, Lala. He watched her with wonder as she picked up a book and made a rather rude comment about McGonagall. Nick held in a laugh as he slowly got up from the chair, thankful that it didn’t squeak, and stayed close to the shadows as Lala didn’t seem to notice him. The smile never left his face as she coughed from the dust all around her. It was only when she feel over did he walk toward her laughing quietly.”That wasn’t a very nice comment you know.” Nicholas held out his hand to her as he reached where she fell. He winked at her in his slytherin charm and laughed again. ” What are you doing here Lala? Knew I was lonely all up here by myself?”

The sun seemed to hit the top window perfectly as it shined through the diamonded glass and onto the floo next to them. It little the room up only subtly, so Nick took no notice of it as he continued to watch Lalita. She was so clumsy sometimes, it was really cute. He was glad, however, when she took his hand to get up. However, when that ripping sound came to his ears, he had to stop himself from falling over and laughing. Instead, still holding her hand, he brought himself behind her and wrapped his arms over her neck and rested his head on her crook of her neck. He closed his eyes and laughed quietly next to her ear.”It must be fate! It’s clearly a sign. And don’t worry, I will.”He was talking about her comment she made, which only made him smile more. In that one second of him being sincere, He quickly took his arms away and stepped back laughing. He didn’t believe in fate or destiny by that matter. People did what they wanted and when they did. It was always your choice. He stuffed his hands back into his pocket as he started to walk around Lalita like a lion circling its prey. He did seem to have hungry glowing in his crystal eyes and the smirk didn’t help. ”So what is my stud-bud doing up here all by herself? Looking for trouble, I presume?” Nick’s voice was the right velvety sound that seemed to please the ear. He smiled ever so lightly, starring deeply into her eyes as he grabbed her hand to pull her close. He might as well have some fun if they are alone. He didn’t pull her too close because he wanted to put his hands over her shoulders comfortable, so there was a good 4-5 inches between them. Nick winked at her as he placed a kiss on her forehead.”You’re much too cute, you know that?” He laughed lightly as he stared at her.

The class was bound to start in a few minutes, probably ten or so, but that barely crossed Nick’s mind as he looked at Lalita with a matter of wonder. He figured that some of the girls knew who he was and how he was tried to play as if they weren’t interested in him. If only they knew that that stimulated him more. There wasn’t anything better than the chase. However, he figured that Lala already knew that, and was probably trying to play his game.”Oh, you’re clever.” He obviously said this sarcastically, but somehow, it seemed sincere. Of course, he meant it both ways and it was aimed at his thoughts but it also fitted well from her comment about her coming here out of boredom. He smiled at her, but it wasn’t a smirk, or a devilish smile. Just a regular, polite smile toward her blushing. But those never last long, and they were soon replaced by rolling his eyes at her comment, and he took his arms away from resting on her shoulders to back at his sides as he took a few steps back, holding his hands behind his back as he started to walk around the classroom, eyeing the desks for no particular reason.”Of course I can’t. You’re much too witty for me aren’t you?” His tone was heavily sarcastic, not even bothering to look up as he voice, not accompanied by mischievous for once, rang through the room. Nick was fighting himself, wondering if should go farther. He felt like what she said was a challenge, even though it probably wasn’t. He mumbled the words screw it under his breath and turned to look at the Hufflepuff. ”Can I tell you a secret Lala? Promise that you won’t tell anyone, K?” The regular looks of roguish behavior shown brightly on his face. Nick glanced a look at the desk next to him, one on the top left of the classroom and dusted it off. He sat on it after pushing an old book off to the floor with a loud bang. Nicholas didn’t flinch as he returned his daring gaze to Lala.

The slytherin was the one to do anything to get what he wants, and usually that wasn’t much but today, it seemed like an awfully good adventure if he were to find the treasure at the end of the road. Nick looked down at the floor, and then back up to see that Lalita had walked closer to him, and started to fix herself a seat across from him. He cleverly wore a mask of sincerity and a tad bit of caution. It felt odd with those feelings combined on his face, but he made it work, just like everything he did. He began to fidget his hands in his lap, as if struggling to confess, eyes glancing down and up. And then at last, with a sigh, got up and went to Lalita. He brought his lips dangerously close to her ear and whispered, ”There is this Hufflepuff that I can’t stop thinking about. And all I really want to do is-“ Nick interrupted himself as he quickly brought his face in front of her and kissed her lightly. Of course those words were a lie, and he didn’t only want to kiss her, there were other things of course but he didn’t want to think about that right now. Nick’s hands placed themselves softly on her cheeks, but then he brought it to an end, not wanting to over do it, and pulled away from her. He smiled and winked at her before he turned around and stood next to her, leaning on a dusty desk.”Tell me something Lalita. What are you thinking right now?” His tone was completely curious as he made conversation, as if he hadn’t kissed her. However, when he thought of Lala, he couldn’t think of himself going further than kissing her because she just seemed so innocent. His smile turned evil for a split second, as he thought that was the best prize of all.
