PANSY AND I went to our seperate classes in the morning. After a restless nights sleep, I was prepared to give up and let Snape have at me with his glares and surprise questions.
I sat at one of the two seat desks, pulling out the text books for Defense Against the Dark Arts. A boy sat down next to me, leaning so far back in his chair that if I tapped him, he would probably fall over. I glanced over at the boy, who was grinning at me. I recognized him as Adrian Pucey.
I've never actually spoken to Adrian before. Draco and Theo always made sure we rarely crossed paths.
He looked like he was about to give me his hand to shake, which is weird considering we are in the same house after all, but he was interupted when another boy towered over us both. We both looked up at Mattheo.
"Move."
Adrian looked like he might protest, but he reluctantly grabbed his bag, and moved to the back of the classroom.
Mattheo sat down in the chair next to me. Now he was dictacing who I sit next to? I crossed my arms over my chest, but he didn't pay me any attention. Before I could tell him that I can handle myself, Snape shut the door loudly with a wave of his wand when the clock hit 8 am on the dot.
I could hear whispers behind me. I peered over my shoulder to see Lavender Brown and Daphne Greengrass in the back of the class. Once they saw I was looking, they quickly stopped their whispers. I turned back around. I've only ever spoken to Daphne as much as I have to Lavender all these years, which isn't a lot. All I know about Daphne, is that she's a also Slytherin.
Once the class was over, I grabbed my books and stuffed them into my bag. The rest of the students began to stand up as well, and leave the classroom to their next classes. Snape was the first to leave.
"Lily!" I turned as I stuffed my quill into my bag. It was Enzo and Draco.
"You'll be coming to watch tryouts, yeah?" Enzo asked.
"Wouldn't miss it." I smiled, slinging my bag over my shoulder. Our group started towards the door.
"We're looking for a new captain." Enzo told me.
"Won't take too long if you ask me." Draco smirked, patting Mattheo on the shoulder.
Was Mattheo trying out for the team?
I heard someone clearing their throat behind me, as though to get my attention. I looked over my shoulder. Daphne and Lavender, with a few of their friends, were standing behind us as we approached the door. We all stopped walking.
"Are you two..." Lavender started, her eyes traveling from Mattheo to myself and back. It seemed she was asking Mattheo the question.
I waited for her to continue. When I realized what she was implying, I let out a short laugh.
