I ran down the corridor and back down the stairs. I ran into Hermione and she asked why I was running. I explained what I saw and she looked shocked and impressed.

"Show me!" I looked at her like she was an idiot.

"No. It'll eat out faces off!" I said laughing slightly.

"Fine. We'll go alone."

"We?" Ron asked looking at Harry scared. Hermione nodded and they headed up the stairs to the corridor. I kept walking as I saw a cat. I bent down to pet it but it scratched me.

"HEY!" I called out chasing the cat away. It ran up the stairs and into the corridor. I walked back down to the base floor. I started walking around when I felt an arm around my shoulder.

"Hey cutie." I pushed his arm off and he stoped walking.

"I'm not in the mood Fred." I kept walking leaving him behind. I was next to the girls bathroom when someone ran up to me. She had long black hair and was wearing blue.

"Hey! You're friends with Cedric, right?" I nodded "great! Do you think you could maybe....set us up?" I nodded awkwardly and kept walking. I hung my head back, slammed myself against a wall and sat down.

I felt tears fall. I wasn't even sure why I was crying I just...was. Do I have feelings for Cedric? I kept asking myself but I could never get a straight answer. I heard someone walk down the corridor and I quickly stood up. I wiped away my tears and walked back towards the commons. I felt someone place a hand in the middle of my chest stopping me from walking.

I looked over to see a blond boy with grey eyes. "Piss off, draco." I pushed his hand down and kept walking when he grabbed my wrist.

"We need to talk."

"About what."

"Father."

"I don't care about him." I yanked my hand out of his and walked up the stairs.

"ITS ABOUT ME TOO." He shouted at me making me stop in my tracks.

"What are you talking about...?" I saw him tearing up but he tried to hide it. He looked around.

"We can't talk now." He walked off towards the dungeons. I rolled my eyes and walked up to my dorm. I sat down on my bed and pulled out, 'hogwarts: A history.' Hermione lent it to me so she can tell me everything and test me for "O.W.L.s" whatever that is. She's practically forcing me to read it.

After about an hour of reading I got bored and pulled out a Ipod. I only had a few songs downloaded and I'm pretty sure I'm not supposed to have it. Some kid at the orphanage gave it to me.

"What's that?"

"Oh! Nothing." I quickly hid it pulling the headphones out of my ear. "Hi, Zaria." She nodded slightly and walked over to her bed.
