Seems like everyone is talking about me and Draco for the next few weeks. Everyone keeps staring or teasing every which way.

So one night I went into the Room of Requirement. I needed to be alone, to practice controlling my curse that I inherited from my mother's side of the family: to be able to control gems. Thankfully the room is not occupied at the moment.

I took a deep breath and concentrated on making a statue of Rowena Ravenclaw. The energy of doing so makes me shiver slightly, but it's not hurting me. The object slowly rose up in front of me, the sapphire surface gleaming under the dull light. I let out a short gasp when the process is over, unable to believe what I had made even though I am used to the curse.

I then imagined the sapphire Ravenclaw statue crumpling into a pile of sapphires, one by one. Again I felt the energy making me shiver. The statue broke apart, sapphires breaking loose from each other.

I imagined one sapphire coming to my opened hand, and it did so.

So far, I can control my curse.
