Kapitel 40: Lap Pillow

Stefan and Mary pushed their carts rapidly in direction of the brick wall, Stefan saw how the scenery changed into one where a lot of parents where saying goodbye to their kids, and beside them was the famous train that brings the magical kids to one of the best schools of magic Hogwarts.

"Let's go into the train Mary" said Stefan with a calm face as he started to go to one of the entrances of the train and Mary followed him a step behind, they entered the train and started to look for an empty compartment which they found quickly, they entered and used a bit of magic to lift their so call school chest and kept them in the upper rack with no problems and took their sits.

Mary saw as Stefan had problems getting comfortable in his seat as he kept moving in his seat, she smiled as she knew what was he missing and said with a soft voice "Young Master, we could lock this compartment, so I can transform back and you can be comfortable all the way to Hogwarts"

Stefan turned his head to look at her while pondering about it, he snapped his fingers and all the compartment expanded as he went beside Mary, who was about to transform back, but heard him saying "Don't, I will just rest on your lap"

Mary nodded brightly as she remembered a few days earlier when she entered the training room and caught Stefan sleeping on the couch so she went to him and to not woke him up, she rested his head on her lap, and since that day he sometimes sleeps on her lap or breasts as he uses her as a pillow.

Stefan laid down on the expanded compartment, resting his head on her lap while closing his eyes.

5 minutes later the train started to move, some students have tried to open the compartment but failed as it didn't open up even when a red-haired prefect tried to open it with a spell he couldn't and have to leave the compartment while fuming about telling about this to Prof McGonagall.

Knock knock knock

As Mary was about to cast a spell so no one disturbs Stefan, she heard the knocking and a voice of a girl saying "Please, could you opened the door, there is no more space in the other compartments..."

Mary lifted her finger, and in the moment she was about to cast the spell, a clicking sound sounded in the compartment and the door opened, Mary turned her head to look at Stefan with a puzzling face who had his eyes closed, and heard a girl voice saying "You know is against the rules to lock the door..."

Mary turned her head as she saw a girl with bushy brown hair and large front teeth with a bossy attitude as she spoke while dragging a chest behind her.

"Wow, why is this compartment so big, you did an extension charm right... Oh my God, I knew I should have to study harder...I should have studied the second years books too, you can even cast expansion charms while I can at most cast the most simple spells, what will I do..." said Hermione as she looked at the big compartment where ten people could fit easily, and start talking fastly as she seemed to start having a nerve collapse.

"Shhh"

Hermione stopped talking as she saw the red-haired girl signaling at her to keep quiet as she took a finger to her lips shushing her and signaling at the boy with silver hair that seemed to be sleeping.

Hermione breath deeply and noticed a boy was sleeping on the lap of the red-haired beautiful girl and said while her face turned red "That's not ok, we are too young to start relationships it's going to affect your grades at school and..."

"Shhh, he is sleeping" said Mary while furrowing her brows but did nothing as Stefan hasn't said anything about her, she also noticed it's the same girl Grindelwald saved by the order of Stefan, so she couldn't be rude to her.

Hermione didn't know what to do as she hadn't made any friends, and she knows she always screw up things with her bossy attitude but they haven't complained about her or tell her any mean things so far, so she took a deep breath as she ignored the situation of the boy sleeping on the lap of the red hair girl and proceed to try to put her chest in the upper rack but she couldn't, as she was about to ask for help the chest started to float and put in the upper rack.

Hermione turned her head to look at the red hair girl but noticed she didn't have a wand on her hand, and then looked at the boy with silver hair who was sleeping, and assumed the red-haired girl help her she said "Thank You... Amm what's your name?"

"Mary noticed as Stefan helped Hermione but said nothing, a second later she heard the question of Hermione and answered her with a calm face while whispering so she doesn't disturb the young master "I'm Mary, and he is Stefan"

Hermione sat down in front of Mary while saying with a preoccupied face as she whispered "You should be from a wizard family right?, Oh my God, I can't even do second-year spells and you can do extension charms what am I going to do is everybody in school so advanced..." as she was about too keep talking Hermione saw as Mary signaled at her to be quiet for a moment and heard her saying with a reassuring face.

"This compartment was like this since we entered, that's why we put the lock on the door we don't want misunderstandings, we are orphans so we don't come from any wizarding family... Calm down, as for the levitating spell, I'm sure you are capable of that, so don't worry you will be fine"

"Really?..." said Hermione as she was about to say something more she heard the voice of a boy, and saw the boy had his eyes opened and that was looking at her, silver beautiful eyes.

"Keep quiet or get out"

Hermione saw as the boy with silver hair and silver beautiful eyes closed his eyes again as he said that.

Hermione whispered "I'm sorry"

Mary look at her for a moment and said with a smile on her face "Don't worry, he is just grumpy, he didn't sleep well yesterday as he was too excited about coming to Hogwarts"

A vein on the forehead of Stefan popped out as he heard that but said nothing as he just kept his eyes closed.

"Let's talk in whispers so we don't annoy him don't worry Hermione" said Mary while smiling at her.

Hermione's face turned better as she heard that and whispered while smiling "I couldn't sleep too, I was too excited thinking about school and all the interesting things we will learn here"

Mary started giving Stefan a head massage as she noticed a vein was popping out from his forehead.

"Humm sorry for being nosey but you look so close to him what are you? relatives?" said Hermione with curiosity in her voice.

As Mary was about to answer, she heard the voice of Stefan saying "She is part of my family"

Mary smiled brightly as she heard that, and Hermione didn't say anything as she caught the implication and just nodded.

Time start passing as the two girls were talking in whispers, the door of the compartment opened up, and the voice of an old woman said "Would you like to buy some candies kids?...why is" Stefan opened his eyes and his eyes turned black with silver iris for a moment as she looked at the woman with the candy cart and his eyes turned back to its normal silver color in a fraction of second.

Hermione saw as the woman with the candy cart was about to say something suddenly deviated the conversation and ask again if they wanted candies.

Stefan stood up from the lap of Mary and said "Give me everything that has chocolate in it, and some of this and this..." as Stefan started pointing at several types of candies.

"Ok enjoy your candies" said the woman with the candies cart as she walked away with almost no candy on the cart.

Stefan started opening a chocolate frog and started eating it without looking at Hermione who had a surprise look on her face as she saw him buying almost all the candy cart.

"I thought you were Orphans...how can you have so much money... I mean my parents are dentists and are successful but they wouldn't give me so much money just for candies..." said Hermione while she looked at almost all the entire cart inside the compartment.

A chocolate frog started floating as it landed in the hands of Hermione who heard the voice of Stefan saying "eat it, or take anything you like"

Hermione turned her head to look at Stefan who was just eating his chocolate frog and saw he didn't was using a wand and said "Oh my God, you're doing wandless magic... How"

"You're overthinking Hermione, he kept his wand a second ago" said Mary while eating what it looks to be marshmallows in the form of a snitch that starts to fly once you opened the bag.

"Oh, right... Sorry... Can I" said Hermione as she saw the marshmallow in the form of a snitch that Mary was eating and wanted to try...

"Take it" said Stefan while eating another chocolate frog.

"Thank you" said Hermione as she happily took a marshmallow snitch that started to fly as soon as she opened the box, but was caught by Stefan who gave it to Hermione with a calm face.

"Thanks" said Hermione as she started to eat the marshmallow with a happy face.

They kept eating till the door of the compartment was opened by three boys one with white hair and two bigger boys with stupid faces and gorilla complexion.

"So you're the reason I couldn't get my chocolate frogs... Give me the chocolate frogs I'm buying them from you at double the price..." said the boy with white hair and a disdained look in his eyes as he took a pouch from his waist and took several galleons from it.

"Not in sell, get out" said Stefan with an annoyed voice.

"You... I'm Draco Malfoy you don't want to mess up with me, my father is in the school board..." said Draco with a proud face and disdained in his eyes as he looked at the boy with silver hair and silver matching eyes.

"So noisy, get out of here" said Stefan as he took another chocolate frog and started eating it.

The face of Draco started to change from red to blue and then to purple as he heard that answer, he took his wand from this robe and pointed it at Stefan and saying "If you dare to speak again I'm going to make you..."

"Noisy" the voice of Stefan was heard in the compartment as Draco with his two gorilla friends got threw our of the room while crashing with the windows, the door of the compartment closed and a clinking noise heard and the door got locked.

Hermione was starting to get nervous as she saw the boy named Draco Malfoy with two of his gorilla friends entered the room with a bully aura around them, and the things started to escalate as she was about to talk, she felt a pinch on the palm of her hand and saw as Mary signaled her to not say anything a moment later she saw as Draco and his two gorilla friends were propelled out of the compartment with a lot of speed and saw as they crashed to the windows, the door of the compartment locked and Stefan and Mary were eating normally.

"Oh my God, Stefan if they go to a professor and tell them you attacked him you're going to be in too many troubles, and you shouldn't be attacking people like that, you're going..."

"I'm getting sleepy" said Stefan as he didn't care about her blabbering and just stood up and laid down on the compartment and put his head on the lap of Hermione as he closed his eyes.

Hermione froze as she saw him laying down on her side of the compartment and then he used her lap to sleep without asking her... As if it was natural of him to sleep on her lap.

"Hey what are you doing, this is inappropriate, we just met a few hours ago... And even then I would never allow a boy having my lap as a pillow...move..." as she was talking with a red face and was talking quickly, she heard him saying.

"Shh, don't be noisy, I feed you for free, don't bother me" said Stefan while furrowing his brows.

"What... You told me to take them.... Get up if somebody sees us will think something inappropriate about us... I will pay for the candies just tell me how much it is and get off from my lap" said Hermione while looking at the compartment door with a nervous face as she didn't want to get caught in this awkward situation.

"ok, pay up, you ate 5 galleons of pure candy, if you can't pay, shut it and let me rest" said Stefan while looking at her from the angle of her lap.

"5...5 galleons?.... What... It's impossible they are too expensive... I don't have that much money..." said Hermione with a surprised voice.

"Shut it then... I'm going to sleep, wake me up when we got there Mary" said Stefan with a calm face as he closed his eyes again.

Hermione didn't know what to do as she bit her lips and look at the calm face of the boy who was sleeping on her lap.

"Do you want any other candy? you're going to be his pillow anyway, why don't you eat more?" said Mary while looking at Hermione with an amused face.

"Sigh, just for this time... But don't let anyone know about this please..." said Hermione as he took a chocolate frog and started eating it while chatting in whispers with Mary while sending glances at Stefan from time to time.
