"She's a saint, with the lips of a sinner,"

When Me, Harry, Ron, and Hermione entered the Great Hall for breakfast the next day, the first thing I saw was Draco Malfoy, who seemed to be entertaining a large group of Slytherins with a very funny story. As we passed, Malfoy did a ridiculous impression of a swooning fit, and there was a roar of laughter. 

"Ignore him," said Hermione, who was right behind Harry and me. "Just ignore him, it's not worth it..."

"Hey, Potter!" shrieked Pansy Parkinson, a Slytherin girl with a face like a pug. "Potter! The Dementors are coming, Potter! Woooooooooo!" 

My head whipped around and I gave her a glare.  Someone barged into Draco and he was pushed over in the middle of one of his mocking faints. I looked up and smiled at who I saw.

"Oops, sorry Malfoy," Theo smirked unapologetically as he stepped over Draco who was now on the floor glaring at Theo, Blaise, Daphne, and Astoria. Draco sneered and sent them a glare before getting up and sitting back down with his friends.

The girls had grown over the summer and Astoria's shoulder-length hair had now grown down to the middle of her back and Daphne had grown taller. Astoria sent me a smile and a wave before sitting down with Ginny and Luna at the Gryffindor table.


(A/N)- Ginny, Luna, and Astoria are in Bella's friendship group but since they are a year younger they tend to go off separately sometimes)


"Bella!" Daphne yelled and I stood up to give her a hug. Theo and Blaise walked over. We all greeted them and I gave them both a hug.

"Thanks for that," Ron said to Theo gesturing to Draco and his friends. Theo shrugged.

"Someone as to put the git in his place," He shrugged with a smirk before turning back to me and looking me up and down.

"Your right Blaise, she does look different," he said making Blaise glare at him. I furrowed my eyebrows and looked at Blaise who avoided eye contact. Theo walked forward and gave me a hug before going down and sitting with the others.

"Ignore them, you look gorgeous Bells! How was your summer? You must tell me all about it!" Daphne asked excitedly as we all sat down.

Once we were all seated we began eating and started to talk about our summers. Hermione told us all how she spent most of her holiday in France. Astoria and Daphne said they had been to wales and Theo and Blaise stayed at Zabinni manor.

"I'm glad I didn't go back home though, I don't think I could've survived six weeks with my parents," Theo said pretending to gag at the very thought.

Harry and Ron sat there glaring at Malfoy's group who were laughing and pointing at us. Hermione, Daphne, and Theo were talking about something and I could feel Blaise's gaze on my face. I turned my head to look at him but he quickly looked down at his food. I frowned.
