Chapter Thirty - Hogsmeade

It's the end of the next day and I'm in the library with Norman and he keeps glancing at me.

     "What do you want?" I ask him when I catch him glancing at me for at least the hundredth time.

     "What's going on?" He asks me.

     "What do you mean?"

     "Whenever you and Ray are around each other there is this awkward tension in the air. It's thicker than the potion Emma failed to make."

     "I don't know what you're talking about!" I object while trying to avoid eye contact.

     "Yeah, sure you don't. Anyways, we're going to Hogsmeade tomorrow. Are you excited?" It suddenly struck me, I forgot to ask my father to sign the paper for Hogsmeade.

     "Ahaha, about that..." He looks at me suspiciously.

     "What did you do?"

     "Nothing! I just...forgot to ask my father to sign the note..." He smacks me upside the head, and hard too.

     "Ouch!" I hiss quietly so I don't get kicked out of the library. He glares at me and starts shaking my arm.

     "What were you thinking?!"

     "Well obviously I wasn't thinking anything because I forgot!"

     "I've lost my patience with you Y/n."

     "Then find it." Norman face palms.

     "Please don't tell me that you were overworking yourself again!"

     "....Do you want me to lie?"

     "That's it, no more juice for you."

     "What?! That's not fair!"

     "Well maybe if you would stop overworking yourself it wouldn't happen!" We were then kicked out of the library.

     We start walking to the Great Hall with our books. We were going up the stairs when I fall over, again. When I fall Norman just laughs at me.

     "How the hell do you fall up the stairs?" He gets out between wheezes.

     "Shut up! I just missed a step, ok?" He doesn't stop laughing, and since I'm on the floor, I have the perfect chance to get revenge. I reach forward and grab his legs and pull them forward. He shrieks and falls down next to me. I laugh as he groans and rolls onto his back.

Ray's Pov

     I start walking towards the stairs to head back to my dorm when Emma stops me.

     "Why are you acting so weird around Y/n?" She asks as I stop walking.

     "Weird? Me? You're imagining things. If anyone is acting weird it's you."

     "I am not!" I turn around and start heading to the stairs and Emma follows me. I hear laughter in the direction of the stairs so Emma speeds up a bit to see what's going on.

     After a few seconds we reach the stairs and...it's an odd sight I guess you could say. Norman is lying on his back laughing and looking like he's in pain while Y/n sits next to him, laughing as well. Their books are scattered around them on the stairs. Emma just looks at them confused.

     "Haha! Oh my, you really are.something, aren't you, Mr. Snowman?" Y/n manages to say, between laughs. Norman just groans and keeps laughing in response and rolls down a couple of stairs. Y/n starts laughing even more and Norman fake cries at her.
