*Layla's POV*
I was in the library studying with Harry, Ron, and Hermione
"I don't understand this" I said
"What do you mean?" Harry asked me
"This one question for Defense against the dark arts," I said "What power does mastering the art of Occlumency give you?"
"Easy, You can defend the mind against external penetration" Hermione said
"I didn't even know you were listening to- Never mind. I got the answer, Thanks 'Mione" I said
I wrote down the answer and closed my book, since that was the last question. I put my things into my bag
"You're already done?" Ron asked
"I mean yeah, I started it yesterday and I finished it today" I said
"Then could you help us?" Ron said
"Depends on if I know the answer, I'm not the smartest person ever" I said
"Layla!"
I turned around and saw Lizzie walking with Brianne
"I see you two have made up" I said standing up
"Can we talk to you quick?" Brianne asked
"Yeah," I grabbed my bag and put the strap on my shoulder "I'll be back guys"
I walked out into the hallway with Brianne and Lizzie
"What's up?" I said
"The third task is coming up soon.." Lizzie sighed
"Oh yeah, um-" I started
"Could you protect Cedric please?" Lizzie asked
"Yeah, I promised it before" I smiled
"Lizzie told me to say this but," Brianne started saying
Lizzie punched her arm
"Sorry Lizzie, but if you can, could you bring Lizzie with you?" Brianne asked
"Of course! It might be hard but it's not impossible. And I might hurt you.."
"Doesn't matter, anything to keep him alive" Lizzie said
"I'll do what I can"
"Thank you, now we gotta get going" Brianne said
"See you around" Lizzie said
And with that, they walked away. I went back into the library and sat down next to Harry
"Back quick" Hermione said
"They just needed to ask me something quick" I sat putting my bad on the table
"About what?" Ron asked
"Nosy much" I scoffed
"Before you two start fighting," Hermione said looking up from her book "Harry, didn't you say you needed help with a question?" Maybe Layla can help?"
"Oh yeah, um," Harry said
"Which one?" I asked
"This one, I've been stuck on it for awhile" He said pointing to a question
Turns out, Harry didn't need help with just one question. He needed help with most of it, just like Ron did. Me and Hermione helped them to make sure they wouldn't fail a test or anything

At this point, the four of us were just sitting and talking at the table we were at"Black!" Draco said coming up to me
"Malfoy." I said turning my head to look at him
"Still hanging out with the mudblood I see?" Draco said
"What do you want Malfoy?" I said standing up
"Just come with me" Draco said
"No" I said quickly
"Feisty, aren't we"
"Just tell me what you want. This would be done way quicker" I said
"If you would come with me, you would see what I want" Draco said
"I'm not going with you," I said "You might as well just leave"
"Fine." Draco said as he walked off
I sat back down and the three of them looked at me like I was insane
"What?" I asked
"Why do you even talk to him in the first place?" Hermione asked me
"Simple. If I refuse to go with him, like what just happened, he won't ask me to go wherever with him" I said
"But he's practically scared of you" Ron added
"Good, as long as he doesn't hurt my friends, I won't have to hurt him" I said
"That's the Layla we all know and love" Harry laughed
"Shut it Harry" I said punching his arm
"Why do you think he's scared of you?" Hermione asked
"I don't know.." I said
"Ask him" Ron said quickly
"I'm not going to ask him why he's 'scared' of me" I said glaring at Ron
"Why? it'll save you confusion" Ron added
"It'll save you confusion" I mocked
"Layla-" Ron started
"I'm not asking him anything. I don't even want to talk to him" I sneered
"Just change the subject before you two start fighting again" Harry said
It's safe to say me and Ron disagree on a lot of things. Me and him almost get into a fight about something everyday. I mean, we're still friends but we fight about stupid things a lot. Luckily, Harry and Hermione have figured out when we would start fighting and they always find a way to stop it before it gets worse. And with the Draco thing, I honestly have no idea why he would be scared of me. Maybe when I would scratch his face everyday for a week? Probably
