"Who's all got their permission slips?" Ron asked as Parker finally joined the Herd.

"I think everyone aside from.." Hermione looked at Harry

"Me." He shook his head.

"Why not?" Ron sighed.

"My uncle wouldn't sign it, McGonagall can't sign it for me either."

"I can forge signatures." Parker raised her hand.

"No, its fine. Honest."

"We've been wanting to go on this trip since first year." Ron sighed.

"Sorry guys, maybe next year?" Harry looked around.

"Yeah, yeah." Hermione held his shoulder.

"Have fun." Harry gave them a smile.

"Where's Erica?" Ron asked the girls as they walked.

"Erica? I haven't seen her." Hermione shook her head.

"She said she was going to do some school work." Parker sighed.

"Really? I thought she'd love coming here." Hermione nodded.

"That's what I thought." Ron crossed his arms.

"Maybe she just needs to catch up on some stuff?" Hermione shrugged.

"Maybe." Parker sighed.

"It's probably Snape." Ron shook his head,"She's not the best in his class and he just doesn't like us."

"Let's just go." Parker shook her head.

"Right." Hermione nodded.

Harry sighed and began walking through the halls of Hogwarts.

"Peekaboo!"

Harry jumped and slapped the person's arm.

"Ow." Erica held her arm.

"Shit- Sorry Erica." Harry sighed.

"You should be." Erica crossed her arms.

"Free slap?" Harry held out his arm.

"Hm... Okay." Erica slapped his arm.

"Merlin, you pack a slap." Harry held his arm.

"Sorry." Erica chuckled,"Now come on, Fred and George have something for you."

"Why would they have something for me?"

"Because they do."

"Fine." Harry nodded and began to walk.

Erica smiled and lead him to a staircase where Fred and George were waiting.

"Finally." Fred sighed.

"Took you long enough." George clapped his hands.

"Well, I'm sorry. Harry walks slowly." Erica pointed.

"I do not. Erica got distracted." Harry chuckled.

"Did not." Erica crossed her arms.

"Look at the shiny coin." Harry copied what she said earlier.

Erica rolled her eyes,"It was pretty!"

"It's alright, Er." Fred smiled.

"Come on, guys. Show him the thing."

George chuckled as he handed Harry a blank sheet of parchment.

"A piece of parchment?" He raised a brow.
