SOFIA | ❨ NEVILLE LONGBOTTOM ❩ UNDER MAJOR EDITING!

Chapter Four.

It was Saturday at Hogwarts. A light breeze blew through the Whomping Willows as children scattered in and out of the castle. Sofia has been awaken by Lily who told her that they should go down to the Great Hall for breakfast. Sofia agreed, and got a frilly skirt and t-shirt out from her closet beside her bed. She quickly got ready with the other girls. She watched as Lily put on loads of makeup.

"Why are you staring? Does my makeup look bad?!" Lily panicked. Sofia felt bad because she was only observing the girl, not judging the girl in anyway. "No! No! It looks great. I was just watching that's all." Sofia quickly responded. Lily sighed out of pure relief.

Suddenly, the dorm door slammed open. Hermione walked in and put her hand on her hips as she looked at Lily.

"Would you please hurry? Dean won't stop complaining about you not being down there!"

Lily rolled her eyes, "Beauty takes time, Hermione. Dean can wait a few more minutes."

Hermione uttered something under her breath as she rolled her eyes. She looked over at Ginny who was reading the same book as she was the night before. "What about you, Ginny? Are you coming down anytime soon?"

Ginny nodded with her eyes still glued on the page of her book. "Waiting for Lily and Sofia..."

Hermione's head whipped to Sofia. "Oh. Well, if you don't feel like waiting for Lily, I can take you down for breakfast. Merlin knows when Jacobson is going to be done with her face paint!"

Sofia didn't respond, but Lily's eyes whipped to glare at Hermione. "Shut up!" Lily yelled, making Sofia jump a bit.

Lily then looked at Sofia, waiting for her to respond to Hermione. "I—um—it's okay. I'll wait for her. I'm not too hungry anyways,"

Hermione just sighed and nodded her head, and she left the dorm.

"She can be such a bitch sometimes!" Lily spoke throwing her makeup into a case and closing it up. She stood up, and looked in the mirror and fixed her shirt. She turned around to look at her bum, which fit perfectly into her jeans, Sofia thought.

"Do you guys not like each other?" Sofia asked, remember the little quarrel they had the night before. Ginny laughed a bit, "I say no, but Lily will just say that they disagree on most things."

Lily rolled her eyes at Ginny. "I don't hate her, nor do I dislike Granger. She can just be so stuck up sometimes!"

Sofia nodded, not wanting to hit a sensitive spot within Lily. It was obvious that something had happened between the two girls. There was tension between the both of them. It was so strong, Sofia thought she could almost smell it.

"Well, I don't want to keep Dean waiting any longer. Let's go," Lily made her way towards the door, and Sofia began to follow. She stopped and turned to look at Ginny, who was setting her book down and throwing her shoes on.

The three girls made their way down the stairs, and out of the Gryffindor common room. Sofia noticed people talking, playing card games, or just simply reading a book. It was peaceful, in a chaotic sort of way. Sofia realized that she hadn't actually felt anxious at all since she had been awake.

The girls made their way throughout the school. Sofia was finally able to see the school in the daytime. It was beautiful. She was so anxious the day before, she wasn't able to take in the tall ceilings, gorgeous paintings, and the lit torches sitting on the walls.

Something she hadn't realized before until now though, was that the paintings talked. They had all different types of personalities.

Before Sofia knew it, they arrived into the Great Hall. A bunch of kids sat all over the place, eating eggs and toast. Lily ran over to where her boyfriend sat, and kissed him on the cheeks. This surprised Dean, but then he looked relieved to see her there. Sofia could tell that Dean really loved Lily just by the way he smiled at her.
