ALIAS:
As Ophelia continued to toss and turn in her bed, she was getting more and more frustrated with each turn. Insomnia was slowly taking over, she could feel. The later it got, the more awake she became. Looking over at her bedside table clock, Ophelia groaned as she saw it was half past two in the morning. The only sounds being heard were the soft snoring of her dorm mates, and she wished desperately she could join them. Ophelia was almost positive she was the only one awake in the dorm, which made things worse. Well, easier since she was planning to sneak out if she didn't get to sleep soon. Ophelia really shouldn't sneak out, as she had classes in just a few, short hours. But in her mind she knew there was no point in trying anymore, she already has been trying to get to sleep for five hours now.
Fifteen more minutes passed, which now made it 2:45 AM. Sighing heavily, Ophelia sat up in bed, swung her feet over and slipped on her house shoes and robe. As Ophelia began to creep her way across the dorm floor, she took out her wand, ready to light it when she entered the pitch-black corridors. That's one of the only things she didn't like about the castle. At night they made it so dark you can't see your nose in front of your face. Ophelia opened the door to the dorm, and began to make her way down the marble steps to the common room. As she neared it, she heard the crackling of a fire. Hm...someone must be up too, she thought, shrugging. Ophelia opened the door slowly and poked her head in, twisting her brow in confusion when she saw it was empty. Okay... she thought, shrugging once more. Ophelia walked across the common room, looking around. She didn't understand why they always left all the lights in the common room It, when the students weren't allowed to leave their dorms after curfew (which, of course, didn't stop Ophelia). Ophelia loved the look and feel of the common room. It was so homey and warm. With its yellow, gold, and red carpet and rugs, big, comfy armchairs couches, Ophelia definitely spent a lot of time there.
Finally, Ophelia was out in the corridors, so therefore she took out her wand and whispered, "Lumos," and a glow of light surrounded her. She hoped no professors, prefects, or staff was out for a late-night stroll, she could get detention for this. In her six years at the school, Ophelia has never set foot in detention. This gave her easy access for Slytherin taunting, because she was such a "goody-goody". Though, she shut them up quick because she had something not a lot of people did. As Ophelia began to walk through the corridors, she could now hear not her dorm mates snoring, but now the paintings. They were so annoying sometimes; but they were also very entertaining. In one painting, she saw that it was a painting of a mother and a baby. The baby had woken up, and was crying loudly. The paintings around it woke up as well, and were arguing loudly. Ophelia shook her head and chuckled to herself, and continued on. She was glad she was in Gryffindor, because she didn't have a long way to go to get to her destination in mind. At times like this she would normally go to a secluded area and play the piano, but she didn't know any sound-proofing spells, and she didn't want to get caught. She was actually surprised she hadn't been caught yet.
At last, Ophelia pushed open the doors to the towers, slowly, as they creaked. When Ophelia entered the staircase that lead to the rooftop, she had to stop and wait for her eyes to adjust to the sudden, even darker, darkness. It was a small staircase that went up to the roof, but it was extremely dark. In the daytime you could at least have the light coming in from the cracks in the door; but now, nothing. Finally, Ophelia's eyes were adjusted, and she walked up the stairs to the roof, and opened the door. Ophelia was immediately greeted with bright sunlight, as the sun was right over her head. The moon was so big and bright, Ophelia felt she could reach up and grab it. Sighing happily, Ophelia walked over to her usual spot and sat down, looking up at the sky.
