Y/n's POV

The next day when we came down to the great hall for breakfast the first thing we saw was Malfoy, entertaining a large group of Slytherins by doing a ridiculous impression of the dementor. I was determined to break his nose this time, but Hermione stopped me.

"Ignore him, just ignore him..... He is not worth it." She said to Harry and me.

"Hey Potter!" shrieked Pansy Parkinson, "You better hide, the dementors are coming!" 

"You too should hide Parkinson, the garbage collector is coming!" I fired back as the whole Gryffindor table burst into applause and hooting. She was looking like a pig and the other Slytherins looked just the same offended.

"What do you say at these moments? Umm... yeah, BURN!!" I laughed at Ron's statement. 

"Thanks" Harry whispered to me... "Only thanks will not work Harold, you have to butter my toast today" I said hiding my smile and trying to look stern. "Yes ma'am!" 

We sat down next to Fred and George

"Hey Harry, don't think about Malfoy" said Fred.

"That little git," George added. "He wasn't so cocky last night when the dementors were down at our end of the train. Came running into our compartment, didn't he, Fred?"

"Nearly wet himself" continued Fred.

"I wasn't too happy myself, they are nasty things those dementors, come on CHEER UP!" they said the last part together. Harry gave them a faint smile.

"Anyways, if that git says something, we have our y/n to burn them." I swung my hair proudly and bowed in an amusing way at their statement.

"And, and we'll see how he turns out after the first Quidditch match!" I said.

"hey, Quidditch reminds me, even y/n was going to try out for the team this year right? she told me during the holidays" said Hermione. Yeah, I wanted to be a chaser.

"Really!?" Harry's expression quickly changed. "Great! we have the first try outs on Wednesday. How about you practice with me today after school?" 

"Yeah Harry! That would be great! How about 4 pm? Are you free?"

"Yes, 4 pm it is" I smiled at him.

Hermione was examining her new schedule. "Ooh, good, we're starting some new subjects today," she said happily. "Hermione," said Ron, frowning as he looked over her shoulder, "they've messed up your schedule. Look — they've got you down for about ten subjects a day. There isn't enough time." 

"I'll manage. I've fixed it all with Professor McGonagall."

I think I knew very well how she managed. But I can not tell them. SISTER CODE!

"Hermione, I know you're good, but how will you attend 3 classes at once?"

"Oh Ronald! I told you I got it all fixed with McGonagall"

"But--"

"Pass the marmalade" Hermione cut him off.

"We'd better go, look, Divination's at the top of North Tower. It'll take us ten minutes to get there."

HARRY'S POV

"There... Has... Got... To... Be... A shortcut!" Y/n exclaimed, breathing heavily after climbing the stairs.

"If I knew that divination was held in ANOTHER NATION, I would have never opted for it" Ron said angrily. He was right though. It did feel like that.
