After breakfast, the room was quickly turned back into the matress-y room from the previous evening. There were still blankets and pillows and cushions strewn about everywhere. Rowan and Brenna were discussing something amongst themselves, their friends also in their own side conversations. Harry noticed how Jason's arm was casually thrown over Annabeth's shoulder as they discussed something. He wondered how Rowan was so unbothered by this. How did it not bother her that her 'boyfriend' was holding another girl like that ? Percy didn't seem bothered either, engrossed in whatever he was talking about with Nico and Thalia.

The boy made a point to sit near the group of half-bloods, Hermione and Ron following. Ginny joined them too.

Harry frowned slightly when the twins passed by them and asked Brenna and Rowan if they could stay with them. The girls looked at their friends before nodding and smiling. Fred and George both laid down, heads on each girl's lap. Harry couldn't help but glance at Jason to see how he reacted. The blond didn't react much, only smiling slightly at her before going back to whatever him and Annabeth were discussing.

"How are our two favourite girls ?" Fred grinned up at them from his spot on Brenna's lap.

The girls shared a look before smiling and chorusing, "Pretty good."

The boys smiled. "Don't let mum get to you," George mentioned. He lifted a hand and tugged at a strand of white hair. "I think it's really cool."

"The leg too," Fred added, reaching out and patting Brenna's metal leg.

Rowan smiled. "Thanks guys. Sorry we couldn't tell you anything."

"Eh," they waved it off. "It's fine."

"We're sure you had a reason," George added.

"We did actually," Brenna nodded. "We were not allowed to talk about it. Kind like if we made an unbreakable vow. Otherwise we definitely would have filled you in."

"Damn," the twins breathed.

The girls nodded. They didn't get anymore conversation as an excited girl, Harry couldn't tell which house she was in without her robes (Gryffindor, not that it matters), exclaimed. "Look !" She pointed to the book which was fluttering open. "It's starting !"

Chapter 5 : I Play Pinochle With A Horse

"What's Pinochle ?" A first year asked.

"It's a card game," Nico explained.

The kid nodded, turning back to the front.

I had weird dreams full of barnyard animals. Most of them wanted to kill me. The rest wanted food.

I must've woken up several times, but what I heard and saw made no sense, so I just passed out again. I remember lying in a soft bed, being spoon-fed something that tasted like buttered popcorn, only it was pudding. The girl with curly blond hair hovered over me, smirking as she scraped drips off my chin with the spoon.
