The slumber party wasn't exactly fun, even though Sophie and I were best friends, Ginny and her also got along very easily. I was the third wheel. And on top of that, there was no privacy in this house! Everywhere I went there was something. Either the twins pranking Ron, or Sophie and Ginny laughing. I was the black sheep.

"Lindsey! How was it?" Mum hugged me.

I shrugged. "Fine." I told her. She raised an eyebrow.

"Fine?" She asked.

"Well there a big family, and loud, Sophie and Ginny are very talkative." I smiled lop sidedly.

"Oh hun, I'm sorry, why didn't you write to me!?"

"Sophie was my ride." I shrugged "But it's fine!"

"Well, we will do something to make up for it!" She told me.



We, in fact, did nothing to make up for it all summer. I might even say it was the most boring summer ever. I just wanted to go back to Hogwarts. Then my birthday came, August 14, so we went to Diagon Alley, and Mum even forced Joshie to come.

"Joshie, I want you to take Lindsey ok, Timothy needs his nap. Meet us back here!" She handed me some pounds, and Joshie and I started walking around, looking at all the shops.

"What do you want?" He asked.

I thought for a moment. "An owl" He turned towards me, crossing his arms.

"You want an owl?" He scoffed. I nodded my head, and he shook his. "Fine."

We went to the pet shop and looked around. I looked through the owls and soon enough I had my sight set on a beautiful grey owl. She had bright blue eyes, and graceful grey feathers. We bought her. "I'm naming her Artemis, it makes sence doesn't it!? Artemis was the goddess of the moon, and owls are nocturnal." I smiled.

Joshie rolled his eyes, then his face turned more serious. "Hey, I'm sorry if I'm ever mean to you." I looked up at him. "I don't mean to be, the whole witch thing just creeps me out a bit. They have been my worst fear since I was young"

"Don't worry about it, it's ok." He looked at me and smiled.

"IS THAT AN OWL!!!" Mum screeched, surprised.

"Uh- yeah?" I replied. "Her name is Artemis. Isn't she pretty!!"

Mum just shook her head, before ushering us all to the car to go home.
