Everyone sit's down in the great hall for lunch.
"What class do we have after this?" Ron asks.
Y/N looks over. "We have Defense Against The Dark Arts.
"That reminds me, I forgot to tell you guys, Professor Lupin confiscated the Marauder's Map." Harry directs to Fred and George.
"Oh come on, we give you a map that tells you where everyone is at all times and it only takes you a month to lose it." George says to Harry.
He looks a little guilty. "Sorry guys, can't change the past."
Suddenly, owls fly into the hall with mail.
"Mail's here!" Y/N tells them.
Y/N's owl flies down to the table and hands her the newspaper.
"Thank you, Aurora. " She says as she pets the bird.
Ron looks confused. "The Daily Prophet?"
"Yeah, I'm having Aurora bring the paper to me so I can stay up to date with the news." Y/N informs him.
She takes a sip of water and opens the newspaper. As she looks at it, she immediately spits out the water.
"Oh my god!" Y/N says as she reads.
"What is it?" Hermione asks confused.
Y/N hands the paper to Harry. "Seems that guy really did work for the Daily Prophet, Harry."
The paper shows pictures of Harry and Y/N walking down the alley, Lupin's cropped out. The caption says 'Elemental Witch Found!'.
"This is totally ridiculous. Not to mention the fact that they speculate us being on a date in it!" Y/N yells.
Subtitle says 'Possible Romance With The Boy Who Lived?'
Harry looks annoyed. "Why would they write stuff like this? We went to go shopping, with a teacher too."
"You guys didn't even tell us you went to Diagon Alley." Ron says.
Hermione rolls her eyes. "Where did you think they got the broom and bird from, Hogsmeade?"
"I can't believe this." She says as she stands up." I'll see you guys in class."
Y/N storms to the common room, sits on the couch, and begins to write a letter home.
As she starts writing, Fred walks into the room. "Hey, interesting article." He chuckles.
"It's not funny, Fred. I don't want to be some spectacle on the paper."
He sits down next to her. "It'll be okay. By tomorrow everyone will have forgotten about it."
She smiles faintly. "I hope you're right, Fred. Now I've got to write this letter home, Aurora's bringing them the paper too."
