Uncharted {HP FF}

Chapter 12

September 1st, I wake up with a groan. Being at the Weasley house has been great. I honestly like it better than my humongous castle. Ron says he'd love to change houses any day, but I don't think he realizes how lonely it is.

I was the first one to go through to platform nine and three quarters with all of my stuff. I got on the train, put away my stuff, and found Hermione sitting by herself.

"Victoria!" She squealed and hugged me. "Where's harry and Ron?"

"They should be here soon" I said and we sat. And we waited. And waited. And waited...

And waited

The train started moving and Hermione and I gasped.

"Maybe they couldn't find the cabin" I said quickly

"Right"

We sat in total silence for most of the trip until something turquoise flew past the window in a flash. Hermione and I ran to the window. The Weasley's car was flying around with Harry hanging out of the side. We watched in horror until he was safely back inside and we stayed in this position for the rest of the trip.

"Where have you been?" Hermione stalked towards Ron and Harry. "The most ridicules rumors. Some said you were expelled for crashing a flying car-"

"We weren't expelled" Harry said

"You're not telling me you DID fly here?" Hermione gasped

"Of course they did. You were there. Didn't you see them? Harry was hanging out the side of the car" I said

"That was you? You could've-"

"Skip the lecture" Ron groaned impatiently. "and tell us the new password"

"It's wattlebird, but that's not the points-"Hermione started but the portrait swung open, cutting her off, and the air filled with cheers for Ron and Harry. They stepped inside and people crowded them to congratulate them and pat their backs. "Unbelievable" Hermione muttered with an attitude and her arms crossed over her chest.

"You know you wish you were that troublesome" I smiled

"I do NOT!" She huffed

"Yes you do" I said and walked into the large crowd. I got a seat on the couch with Hermione at my side.

"So I heard a rumor that you spent your summer at the Malfoy's" She nudged me with her elbow

"You should stop listening to rumors"

"So you didn't?"

"Nope, and I don't know how people made that connection"

"Probably because of how friendly you and Draco are getting" She nudged me again

"Excuse me?"

"I saw you two at Flourish and Blott's" She said triumphantly

"You mean where I called him arrogant and he proved my point by calling himself pretty?" I asked

"Oh, well it didn't look like that from afar" She said glumly

"Looks can be deceiving"

"Good morning" I sighed as I sat next to Ron

"Stop being gloomy. You're making the sky grey" Harry chuckled

"You know about that?" I asked in a hushed tone

"What?" He seemed confused

"Nothing" I said quickly
