Sharing bathrooms again had been the one thing I was not looking forward to. It was a bloody nightmare trying to get ready on time with four other girls, one of them being Pansy Parkinson, arguably the most frivolous girl I had met in all my lifetimes (well, except Marie Antoinette, but she was a whole other ballgame, and I should know, considering I was one of her maids).
Apart from that, Daphne and the other two girls, whose names I had learned were Tracy Davis and Millicent Bulstrode, spent an abnormal amount of time on their hair. I had given up on being so careful with my appearance around 12 lifetimes ago, so the only thing I had to do was wake up before them (and they woke up as early as five in the morning) and finish everything up before one of the girls could barge in and take up my bathroom time.
After finally going down to breakfast and receiving our timetables, Daphne, who had apparently decided she was going to be my best friend (not that I was complaining), accompanied me to our first class, which happened to be Transfiguration with Professor McGonagall.
Though we had arrived early, our teacher was already waiting with a smirk on her face. I knew right then and there that I would be spending most of my energy this year trying to become her favorite student, despite the fact that I was a Slytherin and she was the Head of Gryffindor.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
McGonagall had set us some work. We were supposed to copy down whatever equations she had written on the blackboard, which would help us calculate how much power to put into transfiguring an object without blowing it up. Meanwhile, she was sitting on her desk in the form of a cat, because apparently dear Minnie was an animagus.
Nearly halfway into the lesson, Potter and the youngest Weasley ran in, seemingly not realizing how late they were, with Weasley yapping away at Potter about how Professor McGonagall would have their hides if she were here.
"These fools are going to get a big shock when they realize where she is.", I mouthed to Daphne, as she glanced at me with a barely-there smirk.
