"So what did Dumbledore have to say?" Harry asked. We- Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ginny, Fred, George, and myself -were sitting in front of the fire. After we had finished dinner and left the Great Hall, everyone wanted to know what happened. I had already told them that he wasn't mad and that I wasn't in trouble. Apparently, that wasn't a sufficent enough answer for everyone.

I sighed. "He told me that I wasn't in trouble, and to not correct a teacher again. Honestly, that's all that happened."

"Right," Fred and George said sarcastically. 

I rolled my eyes and said, "Has anyone ever told you two how annoying you can be?"

"Many times," they said in unison. "But we know you don't mean it Ara," George said with a smile.

I shook my head.

"You were in there for awhile," Ron said. "Is-"

"We started talking Ron," I said. "Nothing bad. Guys, honestly, I'm fine and nothing happened. In fact, Dumbledore laughed at the situation."

"So nothing happened?" Harry asked.

I sighed. "No, nothing happened. The only interesting things that happened were that some of my mail got caught up with his and after he gave it back to me, a giant purple dinosaur crashed through the roof."

"Really?" Ron asked. Hermione and Harry nudged him and he said, "Ow! What?"

We all raised an eyebrow and he said, "Oh yeah, right."

 Hermione and I rolled our eyes and Harry asked, "So what was it that Dumbledore got?"

"A box," I said.

"From your parents?" Ron asked. Then his eyes went wide and he said, "I'm so sorry, I-"

I shook my head. I didn't have any parents. My mom died and my dad was Zeus, so we weren't able to talk much. "It's okay Ron," I said. "It was an accident. Actually, it was from one of my friends at Camp."

"Are they a really good friend?" Hermione asked.

I smiled and nodded. "He is," I said softly, remembering all of our good times together.

Harry looked away slightly and Ron looked at me as if I just said that he was batty. "Is he like your boyfriend-"

"NO!" I said defensively, my face turning a slight shade of red. "I mean, no. He already has a thing going on with this other girl who is also our friend, and it'd be really weird if we got together. We are very, very distant cousins."

"Oh," Harry and Ron mumbled in unison.

I smiled and stifled a laugh. "Besides," I said, "he's more like my brother. We get on each other's nerves, but we always find a way to work together. And he's my best friend-"

Harry, Ron, and Hermione started to protest. I laughed and held up my hands in defense. "Guys, you are my best friends too, it's just that...I've known him longer and it just happens to be like. But don't worry, you guys aren't getting demoted or replaced. He can't even replace one of you guys."

The three relaxed and Hermione let out a sigh of relief. Fred, George, and Ginny were silently chuckling while I just smiled. I looked over at the clock and said, "It's getting late, and I'm going to turn in."

The three nodded and Hermione said, "I'll see you later."

I smiled, wished everyone good night, and climbed the stairs to the Girl's Dormatory. I closed the door behind me and made sure no one else was in the room. When I comfirmed that there was no one in the room, I ran to my bed, closed the curtain around it, and flopped down onto the matress. I grabbed my bag and grabbed my package. I put my bag down and smiled. The box smelled slightly salty and the seaweed put my mind at piece.
