*Guys this chapter is cute! I was actually reading the book Pride and Prejudice while writing it so it's very lovey-dovey. Love you all plenty! - Your friendly author <3

The next morning, I woke up and the first thing I thought of was getting coffee in my system. Elise like always, woke me up singing cheerfully. I was so happy that she had Cedric. Ever since they had met, she had changed into this confident, happy, and strong woman and I was proud of her for finding that voice.

"Come on Althea I'm hungry!" She complained about my grogginess.

"Fuck off El," I grumbled, trying to tame my morning hair. After I finished getting ready and looking decent, we made our way down the stairs to the hall for breakfast.

As soon as we sat down in our spots I reached for the coffee. Elise smacked my hand lightly, making me put it down.

"No coffee for a week, remember?" She teased.

"Ugh. I'm tired though El just a bit?" I muttered, to which she responded by shaking her head.

I put my arms on the table and used them as a cushion to rest my head, wanting to just go back to sleep. The thing about me is that I have extreme difficulties waking up in the morning, and I used coffee to speed me up. It was either that or cocaine which didn't deliver to Hogwarts.

"We have a tired Raven on our hands. What shall we do George?" Asked Fred mischievously.

"Don't even start boys," I grumbled through my semi-closed eyes.

"Oh, I don't know Fred..." Continued George, completely ignoring my comment. The two were silent for a moment and I was too tired to pay any attention to their curious exchange.

"I was thinking the same thing, George!" Fred lifted my head with his index fingers and we locked eyes, his with a sly expression. George started making me a cup of tea using my favorite flavor, chai, smirking.

I then saw Fred pull a flask out of his robe pocket and pour some bronze liquid - which I'm guessing was alcohol - into the tea. "A recipe of ours." He said, winking discreetly at me.

I looked over to George who had the same face, mixing my spiked tea around before giving it to me. "This should wake you up." He whispered in my ear, giving me butterflies. "We do it all the time," Fred whispered in my other ear.

Then they resumed their conversation with the others who had not noticed. I slowly took a large gulp of the tea which was now spiked with Fire whiskey, burning my throat slightly. I cleared my throat quietly and the twins began laughing loudly.

"What are you lot laughing about?" Lee asked the two of them, in which they responded with a simple 'nothing'.

I finished the drink faster than normal and they were right, I did feel better. After breakfast the three of us began walking to our potions class, parting ways with our other friends.

"You boys are going to turn me into an alcoholic," I said, rolling my eyes.

They both began laughing before they both said, "We aim to please Miss Jane" at the same time. I rolled my eyes and chuckled at their tricks, feeling the warm alcohol run through my veins. It wasn't enough to put me off my game and be tipsy, but it still added spring to my step and flushed cheeks.

When we got to class, I charmed the boy's parchment, just like I had done before, and read to pass the time. After a few minutes of the boys joking amongst themselves and me reading another one of my favorites, Wuthering Heights, I was interrupted.

Fred took my glasses off of my face and put them on himself, looking around our class.

"Fred give them back!" I scolded.
