Part 2

When they arrived at the dorms the door was just closing. Before it shut all together, they poked their heads round the corner wedging it open. Lockhart was busy figuring out which of the girls he liked.

"Too young, too young, too young, too fugly, too young, too young, too you, too... dead."

"Oh jeez, I am NOT watching this filth", complained Zar as he slid his way off down the corridor.

Rhona hastily followed begging him to stop. The girls however, who were undressing ready for bed, suddenly became aware of Gilderoy's presence and gasped in shock.

"I don't care HOW much you beg me Rhona, I'm not sticking around", moaned the red-head as Rhona tugged on his sleeves.

Suddenly there was a group of loud shrieks and a group of frightened and half-undressed Gryffindor girls came stampeding out and disappeared down the hall. Lockhart ran out the room and slammed the door shut behind him, resting on it to catch his breath. A grim look was spread across his face and he was sweating profusely.

"What happened", quizzed a concerned Rhona.

Gilderoy's head was down in shock, not to mention shame, so he flicked it up wards to look Rhona in the eye.

"They were... undressing for bed!"

"Oh my god", giggled Rhona who was now blushing for him at the thought of how embarrassing it must have been.

"D-did they ALL leave", asked Gilderoy, trying to shake off the scared tone in his voice, "I daren't look."

"Yes, they all fled from you, you perv", sneered Zar sarcastically. He hadn't checked, he just enjoyed annoying poor Lockhart.

"I AM NOT A PERV! I just... need company is all..."

Rhona peered round the corner of the dorm door to check.

"Where do you think they will be going", asked Lockhart, going redder and redder by the second.

"A bloody conga party? I don't know! I'm not psychic!", fumed Zar.

"They wont tell on me will they?"

"Once again... going back to the 'I'm not psychic' thing..."

"Hey", called Rhona, "They didn't all leave, don't worry!"

Gilderoy peeked his head round the corner and tried to hold back giggles of happiness upon seeing a remaining student.

"Wow! Who is THAT?!"

He turned abruptly to face Zar and stuck out his chest.

"See! One stayed, I can't be all that bad!"

Zar sighed and looked at the ceiling as he crosses his arms in an irritable manner.

"HAH!", pointed Lockhart, "In yo' face! In yo' face!"

He then peered back round the corner of the door, smiled, got ideas and then swooped on in eagerly. Suddenly, Zar let out a hesitant noise.

"What Whaaat!? Can't you see I'm busy" flailed the Professor as he stomped back towards the door.

"Its... nothing", stammered Zar who then proceeded to shut the door, "Have fun?"

Lockhart stopped the door and loomed over the red-headed Slytherin lad in a way that only he could.

"You aren't telling me something here boy", he hissed.

Zar's eyes darted from left to right.

"What'd you WANT me to tell you? Honest! Its nothing..."

Gilderoy turned to face Rhona with a look of desperation on his face.

"YOU'LL tell me wont you?"

"Eh? What'd I do?"

He turned back to Zar again, his mouth gaping like a fish.

"Can't you at least tell mer her name? Maybe what she does?"

"Honestly got no clue. She could turn into a 5-headed hydra every full moon for all I know", shrugged Zar as Lockhart flailed around.

"Fine", he snorted, "But if I go in there and discover something sinister about that hottie then I will hold you both responsible!"

Swaggering back into the room, he adjusted his waist coat and smirked his trademark smile.

"For the good of the people", he announced in a noble way to Rhona and Zar, who both rolled their eyes in disgust.

"Such a perv."

The girl looked like she was in her final year. Her hair was brown which then faded gradually into red. She had just put on her night dress when Gilderoy suddenly appeared next to her.

She let out a little gasp, as she wasn't expecting him to be stood there.

"Hello there", he said in the softest voice he could muster, "All on your own?"

"Well, I wouldn't be if you hadn't have scared my roomies off", smirked the girl sarcastically as she folded her clothes for the next day.

"Terribly sorry my dear, I don't know what I did wrong..."

"How about... barging in when we were all undressing? I think that would fit in the right category."

Gilderoy smiled at her non-threatening sarcasm, sat down on her bed and watched her put her things away. Every time she looked at him, her blue eyes sparkled and he found it highly wonderful.

Rhona and Zar were still peeking from behind the door and were watching everything from a safe distance. Zar had no idea why he was there, but he stayed anyway to make Rhona happy. If he didn't, she'd probably turn him into a fairy and lord knows he did not want to ever have that happen to him again. Gilderoy peered over in the direction of the door and noticed them still gawking. He gestured for them to go away, but all they did was smile innocently.

"GO... AWAY", mouthed the frustrated Professor as he flailed his hands in a way to tell them to shoo.

The girl had noticed what was going on and was secretly watching, even though she knew Lockhart didn't want her to notice.

Then, to aggravate him further, Zar mouthed 'PERV'.

"I AM NOT A PERV", roared Gilderoy as he stood up from where he was sat, clenching his fists.

The girl laughed loudly. If he wanted their presence to be kept a secret, he'd royally blown it for sure and she found it hilarious.

"Hi", called the girl as she waved to Rhona.

Rhona waved back and exchanged greetings. The girl smiled softly causing Gilderoy to watch her out the corner of his eye while attempting to refrain from spifflicating Zar.

"How are you and whats HE up to", asked the girl tilting her head.

"I'm fine thanks. And which 'he' are you referring to? The blonde or the pissy red-head?"

"I AM NOT PISSY", roared Zar angrily.

"Yes you are", laughed Lockhart smugly, "Er, I mean... NO SWEARING! I'll give you lines!"

"And I'll refuse to do them..."

"I was talking about facial lines, you nit!"

After a bout of awkward silence, the girls burst into fits of laughter over how daft the two guys were being.

"Ahaha... ha... ha... Anyway. I was on about that gorgeous blonde professor, who else", winked the girl silently as she leaned towards Rhona.

Rhona raised an eye brow at her statement hoping she was hearing things.

"So, whats he doing here anyway", the girl quizzed further.

"He was watching you all undress 'cause he's such a massive perv", sneered Zar.

"I shall ignore that comment", smirked the girl, "So, what are your names?"

"I'm Gilderoy Lockhart, apparently."

"Zarquirus Mysterion. I know it's a mouthful. Just call me "Zar."

"My name is Rhona. Any you?"

"Oh, my name is Rachel Prince", beamed the girl as she kept glancing over to Lockhart, who was busy doing the same.

Suddenly, Gilderoy scooted over to her side and leaned in closer.

"Well, H-e-l-l-o there Rachel."

"Uhm... Hello", she replied nervously. She wasn't too good around the opposite sex, especially not ones she fancied the pants off anyway.

"So, how many years have you sweetheart?"

"Sweetheart!? Boy, that sounds strange, no one ever calls me that... Uhm... I'm 21."

"And your a student here", exclaimed Zar while stepping back in shock.

"N-not exactly no", explained Rachel, "I'm the student relations adviser and substitute teacher in training. I learn for the first half of lessons, then get to be a teaching assistant on the next."

Zar raised an eyebrow at the fake red-headed lady and mumbled a quiet 'I see'.

"Eee, well, never mind about that", said Gilderoy shuffling closer to Rachel and leaning in towards her face fluttering his eyelids.

"Has he been at Snape's secret stash of love potions or something", asked Rachel playfully as she pointed to the absent minded professor who was busy sniffing at her like a dog.

"Probably", giggled Rhona. Thoughts about what Snape would be like if he used a love potion on himself began whirling in her head.

"I have not", snapped Lockhart, his hands perched on his hips, "I'll have you know my interest in her is based solely on hormones! WHOOPS, did that just come out my mouth?"

"RIGHT! Well... I'll be leaving before I gag my intestines up", exclaimed Zar with a frustrated little flail.

Gilderoy smiled at the announcement and stuck his nose in the air.

"Yes, yes. Fine by me. Leave", he exclaimed, as he began to seductively fiddle with Rachel's ears, "I'm a VERY busy man."
