after our visit to the library we set to work gathering our materials, Ron said we could use his cauldron for the potion. Hermione and i set up in the third floor girls bathroom.

No one ever comes in here, theres a reason why but i dont want to spoil the fun for the boys...

After class i brought Harry and Ron to the bathroom to show them our progress.

"so tell me, why are we brewing this potion in broad daylight, in the middle of the girls lavoritory?" asked Ron leaning against a stall, which i knew was the stall.

"because no one comes in here, dont you see the dust on the mirrors and sinks?" i said sitting on the heater pointing to the untouched sinks and unwashed mirrors.

"why" Harry asked. "Moaning Mrytle." Hermione replied pouring lace wing fly into the potion.

I saw Mrytle peep her head out of the stall that Ron was leaning on. "who?" They asked.

"Im Moaning Mrytle!" she cried flying out into the open, both boys jumped when they saw Mrytle not expecting her to be a ghost. "boys this is moaning Mrytle,"

i said jumping off the radiator "shes been through alot in her life... and what i mean by that is she was bullied all her life."

I loved Mrytle because we both were bullied when we were in school. back in the lower grades i was picked on all the time, how i was parentless, how I was never going to amount to much, or how i was an ugly toad.

so one day enough was enough and i just turned the cheek when one got physical and i was never bullied again.

Mrytle never got that chance to do that and i feel so bad for her. So im pretty much the only person to ever use this bathroom.

"i didnt expect you to know me! who would ever talk about miserable, moping, Moaning Mrytle!"

she sniffled then broke into tears and flew off to another bathroom.

"shes super sensitive guys, so please dont offend her! shes been through enough as it is." i sighed.

ive been trying to help her out of her miserable state but everything i try seems to fail!

"ok im almost done with the ingredients now we just have to wait a month for it to be complete!" said Hermione standing up and brushing herself off.

"and now we wait."

The next day there was a new poster on the bulletin board. Dumbledore gave... oh no way! He's out of his mind! He gave Professor Lockhart permission to start a dueling club!

"Oh you've got to be kidding me..." Nate Said appearing behind me making me jump.
"Oh hey." I replied still stunned by the poster

"Let's sign up!" Nate said out of the blue after a few minute silence.
"What? Are you serious!? Why would you want to be taught by someone who can't even stun Cornish Pixies!?"

"No I want to see how he'll make himself look foolish this time!" Nate replied laughing.

My face went from straight to a shrug "good point ok I'm in. I could use a laugh."
We signed our names and hung out the rest of the day.

That night we went down to the great hall for the first meeting of the dueling club.

"Hey Nate seems like everyone's partnering up, how about you and me?"
I asked. He hesitated but nodded his head in agreement.
