When I started spinning; the only though in my mind is that I am going to throw up. Thankfully I didn't and instead fell out a fireplace, where I see Fred  waiting for me. "You came out of the right fireplace" Fred says looking impressed. "The first time we used one, George went to some random place, and it took us 4 hours to find him again" As he says this George appears, and a couple second later Ron. 

"Where's Harry" Ron asks looking slightly worried. "He didn't come out yet" I says, panicking at the thought of my danger-prone brother going to the wrong place. After the rest of the Weasley's come out through the fireplace, we start the search for Harry, and soon see him with Hermione and Hagrid? "Hagrid! What are you doing here" I ask him, surprised. 

He starts mumbling something I can't understand, before saying "Anyways, you lot should go get your books" "Where did you come out anyway?" I ask Harry, seeing a lot of soot and stuff on him."Knockturn Alley," Hagrid replies for him grimly."Excellent." Fred and George speak together."We've never been allowed in," Ron says enviously. 

 "I should ruddy well think not," Hagrid says darkly. "Oh, Harry - oh, my dear - you could have been anywhere -" Mrs. Weasley says frantically gasping for breath as she pulls a large cloth out of her bag and begins to sweep the soot from Harry's face. Hermione grabs Harry's glasses, gives them a tap of her wand, and returns them, good as new. "Honestly Harry, you should really learn the spell, I won't be right next to you every time" she says. "Well, gotta be off," Hagrid says, trying to sneak away, but is stopped by Mrs. Weasley ("Knockturn Alley! If you hadn't found him, Hagrid!"). "See yer at Hogwarts!" And he walks away leaving the rest of us standing around.

 "Guess who I saw in Borgin and Burkes?" I hear Harry ask Ron and Hermione as they climbed the Gringotts steps. "Malfoy and his father." "Draco?" I ask perking up when I hear my friends name. "I still don't get how you can be friends with that arrogant loudmouth annoying person" Harry says looking at me. "You just described yourself" I say glaring at him. "She's not wrong" Hermione comments before I decide to catch up to the Weasley Twins. 

"But your Muggles!" I hear Mr. Weasley say to a couple, who I assume are Hermione's parents. "We must have a drink!What's that you've got there? Oh, you're changing Muggle money. Molly,look!" He points excitedly at the ten pound notes in Mr. Granger's hand."Meet you back here," Ron says to Hermione as the me, Weasleys and Harry are taken to our underground vaults by another Gringotts goblin.

"How about me and Harry go to our vault, and you all go to yours" I suggest realizing we all would barely fit on the cart. Mrs. Weasley nods her head before climbing on along with the rest of the Weasley's as me and Harry get into a different one. After we all came back to the front of the bank, Percy started talking about how he has to go get a new quill, the trio (Harry Ron and Hermione) decided to go buy ice cream, and the Weasley's went with the Granger's to the Leaky Cauldron. 

"Amaya, you want to come with us" Fred asks, as Lee walks over to us. I nod my head and follow them to a joke shop. "I'm going to go buy my books" I tell the boys, who nod and keep looking at stuff.

 I make my way to the bookshop and along the way bump into someone. "Sorry I didn't see- Pansy!" I say happy to see my friend. "Amaya! How was your break, do you-- Pansy who is this." A new voice asks. "Mother" Pansy says her voice changing to a more respectful tone. "This is Amaya Evans, she's one of my friends" . "Hello Ma'am, it's a pleasure to meet you" I say, bowing my head. I talk to Pansy's parents for a couple minutes before making my way into the store with Pansy, her parents going to the Leaky Cauldron. When we get in, I see a sign which reads: GILDEROY LOCKHART will be signing copies of his autobiography MAGICAL ME today 12:30 P.m. to 4:30 P.m. 
"I'm not the biggest fan of him, to be honest" I tell Pansy, as we make our way inside "Neither am I, he's slightly annoying. Attractive, but annoying" she responds. As we walk inside I see Lockhart jump to his feet and exclaim "Merlin's Beard, it's Harry Potter" He then grabs Harry, drags him up to the front of the crowd and says "Big smile Harry, with any luck this'll make the front page" Lockhart says 

"Ladies and gentlemen," he says loudly, waving for quiet. "What an extraordinary moment this is! The perfect moment for me to make a little announcement I've been sitting on for some time!"When young Harry here stepped into Flourish and Blotts today, he only wanted to buy my autobiography - which I shall be happy to present him now, free of charge-" The crowd starts to clap again. "He had no idea,"Lockhart continues "that he would shortly be getting much, much more than my book, Magical Me. He and his schoolmates will, in fact, be getting the real magical me. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I have great pleasure and pride in announcing that this September, I will be taking up the post of Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft And Wizardry!"

"Draco" I hear Pansy call out, and as I whirl around I spot Draco, Theo, and Tom on the stairs to the second floor. "Theo" I say as he runs towards me and pulls me into a hug. "It's so nice to see you again says before getting interrupted by another man. "Mattheo, let the girl go" I man with pale, long blonde hair says using his cane? to pull him away from me. "Hello, i'm Amaya Mr..." I say "Malfoy" he replies, looking at me with the same haughty expression as before. "well, it's a pleasure to meet you" I reply, "I'm going to go buy my school books" I say, me and Pansy trying to go. "What's your blood status" he asks, blocking my path. "I'm a pureblood, I'm part of the Evans family, although my parents are dead" I answer, finally making my way past him with Pansy and Theo. 

"Bet you loved that, didn't you, Potter?" I hear a voice Draco say as I whirl around "Famous Harry Potter," he says. "Can't even go into a bookshop without making the front page.""Leave him alone, he didn't want all that!" Ginny speaks up glaring at Draco."Potter, you've got yourself a girlfriend!" he drawls.  "Bet you're surprised to see Harry here, eh?""Not as surprised as I am to see you in a shop, Weasley," Draco says. "I suppose your parents will go hungry for a month to pay forall those." "Why is he constantly up Harry's ass" I sigh before continuing my book shopping, not caring in the slightest about the drama happening. 

After a few minutes I hear a thud and turn around to see Mr.Weasley punching Mr. Malfoy (the way I cringed writing Mr.Malfoy) in the face. "What the fuck" I whisper as the two get kicked out of the store by Hagrid carrying them out. 

"Let's go check on them" I say, as I pay for my books and walk outside.



MERRY CHRISTMAS. 🥳🎄🎅🇨🇽
