Albus's eyes shot open as he felt someone shaking him awake. "What the hell, Lils?" His words still slurred with sleep, muttered out. He looked over to the side, expecting to see the ginger-red hair of his sister, but was instead met with the blonde of his friends. He gave Scorpius a confused look until he saw the robes on his friend and suddenly hit him. Albus practically jumped out of his bed and ran to get dressed. He heard Scorpius say something about it being 8:50 as he slipped his pants over his legs, nearly falling onto his bed doing so.

By the time that he was fully dressed and ready, class had already begun. And after they ran down the stairs and were rushing to their first class, Potions. The two quickly became thankful that they lived in the dungeons. But, even due to their Common Room being in the Dungeons, they had no clue where to go, it caused them to be nearly 10 minutes late and out of breath. When they noticed that the door ajar they assumed that they could slip in without being noticed, however Professor Slughorn did take notice. "Ah, there's our two missing students!" They jumped as they heard his voice and he laughed, "I was beginning to believe you were skipping class on your first day!" The two looked down, embarrassed that the Professor called them out on being late. "But it's no problem, just take a seat next to Miss. Green."

Scorpius and Albus walked over to where Anneliese was sitting. Once they sat down, they looked down into their laps. Refusing to meet anyone's eyes. Anneliese leaned over and whispered to the two boys, "I was beginning to think that you two weren't going to show. My god, you two."

"Well excuse me for not being used to having to be up by 8 am to be at classes at 9." Albus muttered back to her.

She rolled her eyes, "Technically, you should be up even earlier so you can eat breakfast."

Albus held back a groan, "Don't remind me! Now I can't eat until lunch...whenever the hell that is!"

Anneliese bit her lip, "Sorry Al. Hopefully you won't die." Albus leaned back as she leaned a little over him to talk to Scorpius, "And you?"

The blonde sighed and grabbed the text book from his bag, "I have nothing to say as I am usually up by 7 am." And all three of their attentions turned back to the board and all turned to the page that was written on the wall.

"By the way...your family, well mostly James, was staring at the Slytherin table for the majority of lunch. I just...thought you should know, y'know?"

Albus sighed and nodded as he began to take notes on what was written on the pages. He tried to ignore the sinking feeling in his stomach. He knew, full well, that for whatever James's reason for staring at the Slytherin table this morning wasn't good. And that he most likely was looking for Albus. Why? Albus didn't know.

Not yet...at least.

"First day of classes is done! You have no idea how long this day was!"

As Anneliese rolled her eyes at Albus, he stuck his tongue out at her. "Quit complaining Albus, we have 4 more days of this, plus Wednesday we have Astronomy."

His silly tongue-sticking-out face turned sour as he glared at her, "I hate you right now."

She just shrugged, "I know, but I'm not wrong."
