Melanie wanted tea.
Sure the chocolate had helped but her tummy was feeling all flipfloppy and had a feeling tea would help her calm down. And it'd probably help everyone else down too but Melanie refused to go down to the kitchens or even leave the common room. There were dementors out there. But there were professors out there too, weren't there? "We should probably get the headmistress," Melanie said quietly, drawing random circles and triangles on the floor with her finger. But could the headmistress even do anything? Who knew how many dementors were even out there? And who would even want to go outside and face the dementors? Melanie was pretty sure that if any of them stepped foot outside the common room to look for a professor, they'd see one and then... yeah... soul sucked out and stuff.
It wasn't pleasant. Melanie knew that was a fact.
Then the boy was on the ground too. Voluntarily. Oh well, okay, that was okay too she supposed. And Penelope was right about the whole not supposed to be at Hogwarts thing. "This isn't the first time dementors have been at Hogwarts..." Melanie pointed out. Because they had been here a long time ago too. Melanie had read that in a book somewhere. But why were they here? "The Ministry used to use them as guards or something... I think." Melanie couldn't remember everything she had studied from last year. That was practically impossible.
She sat there silently, thinking. "So... who wants to go get the professors?" Melanie asked.
Because she didn't.
