Chapter Seven:

"Forever in my heart."

Not only had Lorenzo and Theo been in the classroom but so had George and Fred. They all grinned at her as she rushed in and stood next to the boys.

"What did you guys do?" She whispers to the twins.

"Nothing much." They replied in sync.

"You guys need to stop doing that, it's so creepy." Theo says towards the older boys who only shrug in response.

"Ehem." Snape clears his throat.

"You will all be cleaning the cauldrons in this classroom." He pointed to at least a hundred of them gathered on the sides of the room.

"With no magic." He drew out which caused the group to groan.

"Wands please." He puts his hand out expectantly.

Hesitantly they had put their wands in his hand one by one.

"The room will be charmed to be locked for two hours after I leave, do not try to escape. After the two hours you are free to go. I will be in the next classroom grading essays, do not bother me either." It had annoyed Atlas how slow he had talked.

"You can get your wands after the detention is finished. Now get to work." He promptly left the five students alone.

Fred takes something out of his robe pocket which Atlas has recognised as a wand. Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion, she had just seen him hand that to Snape.

"How do you still have your wand?" She asks him.

He chuckles at her.

"That my little Lennon, is because I gave him a decoy. We both did." Fred answers her.

Atlas curses internally for not being smart enough to think of something like that. She sits down on one of the stools while she watches the twins charm the cauldrons to clean themselves.

"If you're charming the cauldrons to clean themselves, what are we supposed to do for the next two hours?" The question came from Theo who was just as confused as Atlas.

It was George who had smirked and pulled something out of his pocket. This caused Lorenzo to let out screams of happiness before he was shushed by Theo. Fred muttered 'muffliato' before grabbing a stool in front of Atlas. The three other boys join and form a mini circle around the table.

"Alihotsy?" She questioned and they nodded.

The twins quickly got to work rolling the Alihotsy into a cigarette shape. Atlas had only seen it a couple times outside of potions and had only ever smoked it three times back in Ilvermorny. However, she was excited to be able to feel the effects of it. It was commonly used in a laughing draught but had been altered by teens to be similar to 'muggle weed'.

"Ladies first." George says handing it to Atlas.

She hesitantly takes it from his hands and motions for him to pass his wand. He does and Atlas uses it to light up the end of the blunt. She takes two puffs before handing it back to George who does the same as Atlas and passes it to his brother. The group had smoked over two thirds of the blunt before the effects started to settle in.

Theo's eyes never left the girl sitting next to him. He had only known her a day but he already had gotten infatuated with her. He watched her as she inhaled from the blunt and then as she blew the smoke out of her mouth. No one had realised that he was staring which was lucky for the boy since he had no real intention of stopping. Half an hour in and the Alihotsy had really took its toll on the small group. Anything that came out of their mouths happened to be funny to them even when it was just a random sentence.
