Y/n's POV

⋅•☆────✧.·☽✦☾·.✧────☆•⋅

It was a Saturday and I was spending my weekend reading a book in my dorm alone with my cat. Sounds a bit pathetic but those are my usual Saturdays. It was specifically that time of the month and I was in no mood to go out of my room or do anything other than read.

I was just about to finish another chapter of Little Women but then I heard a knock on the door. I slowly got out of bed praying that a bloody waterfall wasn't going to appear down below.

I opened the door to reveal Fred who was holding a basket.

"What are you doing here?" I asked him,

"Harry said it was your time of the month and I thought this would help." He replied, gesturing to the box.

"That's nice of you...but how did you get up here?" I asked.

"I have my ways, now can I come in?" He asked.

I nodded and let him inside. I retreated back to my bed and returned to my book.

He sat down at the foot of my bed and handed me the basket. I placed down the book and opened the package to reveal an array of items.

I could spot a box of cookies and a bottle of milk, a blanket, a heating pad and a few other items. My face grew with a smile. I looked at Fred to see he looked a bit nervous.

"Thank you Fred, seriously. This is really nice. But you didn't have to."

"I want to. Ginny gets really bad cramps and since I don't experience such pain every month, this is the best I can do for you." He replied.

"Well Thank you anyways. Wait, where's the others?" I asked. Taking out the blanket and getting comfortable in my bed.

"They're having detention with Snape at the moment." He answered.

"Oh right, the firefly incident. Well at least they've got each other for company." I said.

Fred nodded as he got up from the bed and walked towards the record player. He pulled out the Queen vinyl and started to play it on the record player. The first song that started playing was "Good Old-Fashioned Lover Boy".

Fred flopped himself on my bed and I let out a laugh. He flipped himself over and spotted Stark who sat next to me. Stark made his way to Fred and sat on his chest and made himself comfortable.

I eventually went back to my book while Fred stroked Stark's fur.

I was reading Little Women for the 4th time now. I'm just in love with the characters and the story. The first time I read this was in the 5th grade and I have loved it ever since.

I eventually finished reading the book and set it down to my side. I looked over to Fred to see he had fallen asleep with Stark still on his chest, also asleep. I shook my head and let out a quiet chuckle and looked at the clock. We've been in my dorm for about 3 hours.

I thought back to the time when me and the others arrived here by car. Thinking about how the car lifted up at the last minute. I know that wasn't by chance. Something happened but I just couldn't think what it was.

I looked at my book and thought for a moment. I placed it down in front of me and thought that I should try something. I've read about wandless magic and non-verbal magic. It's not impossible but it's a very hard skill to master.

It was a big leap to think that I could do it as a second year but who's to say I can't try.

I focused my energy onto the book. I placed the action I wanted to do in my head and focused on the book. I could feel a sort of chill go through my arms like an energy passing through. At the tip of my fingers I could feel a sort of spark. That was when I saw it.
