The next day all the girls went down to get breakfast, Davina, Bekki and Hermione broke off from Parvati and lavender and went to sit across from Harry and Ron. Davina seen Ginny sitting a few seats down so she smiled and waved to her and Ginny seemed pretty relaxed today.
The girls watched as ron tried to tape up his wand that he broke last night. The two boys had told them what happened and while Hermione was shocked at them stealing the car Davina was pretty impressed and Bekki just sat there and laughed after they told them that they crashed their trollies into the wall.
They all headed to their first class of the day - herbology. It was an interesting class at times but others times not so much. Standing round a table with lots of pots Davina stood with Bekki at the middle of the table with the rest if the Gryffindor second years and at the other side of the table was the slytherins. Coincidentally Draco was right opposite Davina and while you were talking with Bekki, Davina seen him glance at her, she just brushed it off he wouldn't do that around everyone.
"Good morning everyone" proffesor sprout said as she came into the greenhouse
"Good morning proffesor sprout" the class said in unison.
"Welcome to Greenhouse Three, second years. Gather around, everyone. Today we're going to re-pot Mandrakes" the professor explains excited
"Who here can tell me the properties of the Mandrake root?" Hermione's hand flys up as usual "Yes, Miss Granger?" The proffesor points out
"Mandrake, or Mandragora, is used to return those who have been Petrified to their original state." The proffesor nods for her to go on
"It's also dangerous. The Mandrake's cry is fatal to anyone who hears it." Hermione finishes explaining
"Show off" Davina says sarcastically letting her know she didn't mean it.
"Excellent. Ten points to Gryffindor." The proffesor awards "well done hermione" Bekki says from the girls right.
"As our Mandrakes are still only seedlings, their cries won't kill you yet. But they could knock you out for hours, which is why I have given you earmuffs for auditory protection." She says as she picks up her own
"So could you please put them on, right away? Quickly." Davina grabs her own and put them on at least they keep your ears warm she thought.
"Flaps tight down, and watch me closely." She begins to show them what to do
"You grasp your Mandrake firmly. You pull it sharply up out of the pot. Got it? And... now you dunk it down into the other pot...and pour a little sprinkling of soil to keep him warm." As she says this from behind Davina, she hear a thud and turn round to see Neville is now on the floor.
The teacher also notices and comments on it "Longbottom's been neglecting his earmuffs." Davina bent down to check on him as Seamus talks to the professor
"No, ma'am, he's just fainted."
"Yes, well, just leave him there." Davina give her a quizzical look but done as she was told and continue with the lesson.
"Right, on we go. Plenty of pots to go around. Grasp your Mandrake and pull it up." They all listened and done so.
Davina seen Malfoy annoying it so she elbowed Bekki and nodded her head towards him and they both seen his finger get bit by the plant, he struggles to get it out and both girls laugh at him earning themselves a glare.
Its now lunch time and Davina just sat down at the table with Bekki next to Hermione and across from Ron and Harry when Dean says
"Ron is that your owl?" They look up and see Erroll indeed the Weasley's owl.
He begins to get lower but goes too low and falls into a bowl of food splashing it over the table. Ron pulls out the envelope he was holding and inspects it Davina notices the terror on his face as he looks at it.
Davina notices what it is and start laughing knowing whats about to come.
"Oh, no." ron says as his voice cracks out of fear.
"Look, everyone. Weasley's got himself a Howler." you heard Seamus with his thick accent
"Go on, Ron. I ignored one from my gran once. It was horrible." Davina gave Neville a pitiful look as ron started to open the letter.
"RONALD WEASLEY!" The letter shouted and ron dropped it, it began to take shape,
"HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR! I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED! YOUR FATHER'S NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK AND IT'S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE WE'LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!" The howler then turned to Ginny who was sitting a couple seats down from the group.
"Oh, and Ginny dear, congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud." As it finished it turned back to ron and blew a raspberry in his face then tore itself up and floated down onto the table.
The hall was in fits of laughter as ron sunk into the table to try and hide from embarrassment, Davina felt bad but it was too funny not to laugh. Knowing how scared all the Weasley's were of their mum Davina defiantly was going to use this to her advantage.

She were now sitting in her least favourite class this year. Deffence against the dark Arts. Talking to Bekki about how she despised the man she actually agreed.
The man made a dramatic entrance as he flung the door open and stood at it looking over all of the students.
"Let me introduce you to your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.
Me.
Gilderoy Lockhart, Order of Merlin, Third Class, honorary member of the Dark Force Defense League and five times winner of Witch Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award." He was now stood at his desk clearly enjoying talking about himself
"But I don't talk about that. I didn't get rid of the Bandon Banshee by smiling at him." Davina scoffed earning her an elbow from Hermione who seemed utterly entranced by him as well as half the other girls
"Now, be warned. It is my job to arm you against the foulest creatures known to wizardkind." He went on and she couldn't actually believe that he was suppose to teach them how to defend yourselves
He tapped on the cage that sat upon his desk and it began to rattle
"You may find yourselves facing your worst fears in this room. Know only that no harm can befall you whilst I am here." He was being sooo dramatic it was ridiculous.
"I must ask you not to scream. It might provoke them." He whipped off the cover revealing some pixies.
"Cornish pixies?" Seamus said from behind you
"Freshly caught Cornish pixies." Seamus was laughing and Davina couldn't help but snigger herself at the ridiculousness of it.
"Laugh if you will, Mr. Finnegan, Miss Davis, but pixies can be devilishly tricky little blighters.
Let's see what you make of them."
He opens the door and they all fly out and reek havoc around the room.
"Come on now, round them up. They're only pixies." He says like he knows what to do
Davina and Bekki were trying to hit them with their books but there are lots of them.
"Peskipiksi Pesternomi!" Lockhart says a spell that does nothing and Davina just glares at him as the pixies take his wand off of him.
"I'll ask you five to just nip the rest of them back into their cage." He runs out of the room without another word. The rest of the students following suit.
"What do we do now?" Ron asks as the rest of them hit them with their books. Davina think quickly and pulls out her wand at the same time Hermione does,
"Immobulus!" They say together and they all stop.
"Why is it always me?" Neville asks hanging from the ceiling.
They mange to get them all back and tidy up the classroom before they leave.
