POTIONS

"Wake up" Mae sung. "We have half and hour until McGonagall hands out our timetable"

"Let me sleep" I moaned.

"No get up you need to get ready" Nat joined.

"Fine" I huffed.

I through the sheets off me to see that I'm still in my party clothes from last night. I drunk so much after Alex left and I don't remember much. It's all a blur.

"What happened last night?" I groaned.

"Well, you got wasted last night after Draco gave you shit about wearing a jumper, Alex's jumper. He got really frustrated, he stormed out the room when you wouldn't take it off" Nat said.

"I'd say someone's jealous" Mae added.

"Jealous? No way. We can't stand each other" I scoffed.

"I was just saying, he was getting all riled up about it" Mae said.

I walked over to the dresser and grabbed my uniform and then walked into the bathroom. I stared at my reflection for a while, smiling at myself then frowning. I wasn't one for mirrors. I mean I don't hate my reflection but I just don't like to look at myself. Just like every girl in the universe.

I took of the clothes from last night and then looked at my body again. I had lost a bit of weight over the holidays and I was happy with how I looked now.

I rubbed the back of my shoulders and grazed over my birthmark. I had quite a strange one to be honest. It was in the shape of a moon. I've had it ever since I was born. The annoying thing about it is that if I wear anything that isn't covering my shoulders it's noticeable which isn't always nice but I ask Mae to cover it if it's bothering me.

I'd never really thought of it until the other day. What if it means something? Nobody has a perfectly shaped crescent moon birthmark. I'd never thought anything of it before.

I looked at it once more and then got changed. I left my tie hanging around my neck, I'll do it on the way. I brushed my teeth and tied my hair into a messy bun and pulled a few strands out the front.

"I'm ready" I called from behind the door.

"Come on then" The both shout.

I open the door and we make our way toward the Great Hall. The three of us walked down the halls and up the stairs. Passing tried 7th years, hungry 2nd years and cheery 1st years. Nothing changed. But then everything had changed, we just didn't know it yet.

We all got to the Hall and the smell of bacon and orange juice hit my nose. My stomach growled at all the food sitting on the tables ready to be eaten.

We sat down at the Slytherin table and I tucked in straight away. I took a slice of toast from the plates and the least cooked piece of bacon. I hated overdone bacon or fatty bacon it just didn't hit the same.
