IT WAS GETTING COLDER, WHICH MEANT WINTER WAS COMING. Harry was allowed to leave the hospital wing after recovering from his fall however, the Gryffindor team were still mourning the loss against Hufflepuff—Fred and George even insisted that Oliver tried to drown himself in the showers after losing.
Hope took it upon herself to drag Harry to visit Remus, insisting that he could help with the dementors that seemed to affect Harry more than anyone else.
Remus—who was looking worse for wear—agreed to help Harry but only after the winter break giving him time to rest and recover from the full moons which had clearly been taking a toll on him. Hope believed it was down to the extra stress he was carrying because of Sirius Black but two weeks off over Christmas would hopefully help.
Everyone was out at Hogsmeade for the day, well everyone except Harry who still wasn't allowed to leave the castle. Hope, Hermione and Ron walked around Hogsmeade finishing off any Christmas shopping they had.
Hope missed Harry. She loved and adored Hermione and Ron but she couldn't help but feel like a third wheel when she was around them. she honestly wondered how long it would take them to figure out they liked each other.
The three friends were standing looking off at the shrieking shack that stood in the distance. Everyone believed it was haunted, Hope of course knew that was just a rumour from her father's countless stories, which she loved very much.
"It's meant to be the most haunted building in Britain, Did I mention that?" Hermione said with a laugh,
"Twice" Ron said
Hope internally groaned at the weird awkward tension.
"Do you want to move a bit closer?" Hermione asked
"Huh?" Ron gaped at her,
"To the shrieking shack" Hermione clarified,
Ron stuttered out an awkward yes before Draco and his goons came strolling down the hill,
"Look whose here, you two shopping for your dream home?" Draco asked looking at Hermione and Ron,
"What are you their pet?" Draco asked eyeing Hope
Hope let out a fake laugh before letting her face fall again,
"Bit grand for you though isn't it Weasel-Bee, Don't your family all sleep in one room?" Draco taunted
"Shut your mouth, Malfoy" Ron sneered
Draco let out a laugh,
"That's not very friendly Boys, I think we're going to have to teach Weasel-Bee to respect his superiors" Draco said a smirk on his face
Hermione and Hope both let out a snort shooting Draco a look.
"Hope you don't mean yourself" Hermione said with a grin,
"How dare you speak to me, you filthy, little mudblood" Draco said with disgust,
Before anyone could say anything else a snowball came flying directly at Draco's face.
