Chapter 1 - A Bad Morning
The quill scratched across the parchment.
'"Grace!" a voice called up the stairs. "Phone for you!"
"Coming Mum!" Grace called down. She sighed as she closed her book. "Thank God I don't have to do anymore Spanish homework." She mumbled under her breath as she set off down the stairs.
"Careful," Mrs Field said as Grace skidded to a stop in front of her. "You'll hurt yourself if you're not careful!"
Rose sighed angrily and scribbled out the writing on the parchment in her hands. "I just can't write muggle stories!" she cried, crumpling the parchment into a ball and throwing it across the room. It was 2 am in the Gryffindor common room and Rose Weasley was the only one awake. All of her friends had already gone upstairs to bed, but she decided to stay and try to put the idea that had been floating around in her head lately into words. The only problem was, she thought she was bad at writing. "I give up." She sighed, looking at the pile of parchment on the floor of the common room. I'll leave it for the house elves, she thought, even if Mum isn't happy with it.
She trudged up into the girls dormitory and fell straight into a dreamless sleep.
"Rose! Rose, wake up!"
"Come on Rose, or we'll be late for charms."
Rose peeled her eyelids open and stared at her two friends, Olivia and Emily. The only one of her friends missing was Violet, a pretty Ravenclaw girl with light blond hair and big blue eyes. Olivia's dark brown eyes and Emily's hazel ones were staring at her, silently urging her to get up. "Ugh. What time is it?" she asked groggily.
"We've got fifteen minutes until first lesson, come on!" said Olivia.
Rose jumped up. "Really?" she asked.
"Really!" both her friends said together.
"Now come on, get dressed. We've already got your books ready." Emily said, holding up Rose's bag.
Rose quickly changed into her robes, then grabbed her bag from Emily as they raced to their Charms lesson.
"Hurry up!" Olivia said, tucking a short black strand of hair behind her ear. "I'm going as fast as I can!" Rose shouted. They ran though the corridors until they skidded to a stop in front of their charms classroom.
"Hey, did you guys get anything to eat? I'm starving." Rose asked.
"No sorry." Olivia replied.
"We haven't eaten anything either." Emily said, flicking her long brown hair out of her light hazel eyes.
"Well, you're lucky I brought enough for you all then, aren't you?" a voice said over Rose's shoulder. A Ravenclaw girl appeared carrying three bits of buttered toast in her hands. "Here you are," She handed the toast out to the others who munched on them hungrily. "I noticed none of you were in the Great Hall, Rose, so I brought you some breakfast. I know it's not as much as you guys usually eat but it's something."
"Fank oo Violt." Olivia said, giving Violet a hug.
"Sorry? I didn't quite catch that, you had something in your mouth." laughed Violet.
Olivia swallowed quickly then said "Thank you Violet!"
"Yeah, thanks Violet."
"Thanks Violet," Rose said "I know I can count on you for anything."
Before Violet could reply, Professor Flitwick arrived. "In you go then." He said.
Violet and Rose grabbed two of the seats at the very back of the room, next to Albus and his Ravenclaw friend Alex; Olivia and Emily took the seats in front of them.
"We'll be carrying on our work on the spell 'Silencio' today class," said Professor Flitwick. "Get out your wands and practise the spell on the animals on your desk." Immediately, the class was filled with the sounds of animals and pupils trying to silence them. After a few goes at it, Rose managed to silence the canary on her desk. Next to her, Violet had managed to do the same on the mouse, with a bit of help from Rose. Professor Flitwick was making his way around the class. "Good try there David, just don't wave your wand, make sure it's a short jabbing motion. Good, good. Ah, girls, done already I suppose? Ah yes. Excellent, there's no sound at all! Well done! 10 points to Gryffindor and 10 points to Ravenclaw!" The girls beamed as Professor Flitwick moved away. Suddenly, their faces fell.
He'd just walked in.
