Red hair and a Hand-Me-Down robe? You must be a Weasley!

Chapter 3: Lavender

"Lola! Alana! And... could that be? Could that be Amber?" Lavender Brown stood up and walked over to us in pretend shock. She smiled at us and stood beside Amber. "You've got your father's wonderful ginger hair! Lovely!" She said about the thousandth time that week. She patted Amber's hair slightly and Amber gritted her teeth and walked back beside me, trying not to burst out in rage. Lavender frowned and walked back to her seat. "Girls, make pairs of three and sit down at a table" Amber, Alana and I pared up "Right let's get started" Lavender drawled. We sat down at a table and the class began. Bella leaned over to us while Lavender was talking about Glass balls. "Were you the one's who broke my glass of flowers?" She said fiercely. Me and Amber looked at her and yelled "NO, no- we- no we didn't. -We didn't break- no, we didn't break your glass-we didn't-no, no."

"Girls! Be silent!" Screeched Lavender, scrunching her fists. The two of us stared at her angrily. Suddenly, Amber pulled out her wand and pointed it dramatically at Lavender. "I'm gonna do it!" She said, her face frowning. "I'm gonna do it!"

"Do what Amber?" Drawled Lavender. "I don't care whatever you're going to do" I stifled a groan. Amber was going to do it. "Amber, Amber! Just... Calm down. Do it another time." Amber looked at me and sighed. "Ok," She mumbled. Her wand lowered to her side and she didn't use it again. Lavender smirked and went on with the class. This time, I was talking about tea leaves. I slouched in my seat and wondered why we ever wanted to do Divination. As I watched Lavander point at two different things on her table, something gently whacked my head. "Ow!" I groaned and Amber did too. "GIRLS! What's with all the interruptions? Can't you stay quiet and still in your seat? Take 5 points from Hufflepuff!" Lavender spat.

Amber gaped at her angrily but subsided and looked down at her feet. Then her eyes widened and she bent down to pick something up. It was a scrunched piece of paper! Is that what whacked me? No, that must've been what whacked Amber. There may be another one for me. I looked down around my table and seat but found nothing so I looked over at what Amber had. It was a note. This is what it said.

Dear Whatever your name is,

Can I ask why you keep on getting Lavender angry? Do you have something against her? Or... What? Is your sister worse than you? Or more mature?

Are you from the Weasley family? Because of your hair?

Do you like boys? Do you have a crush already? Specifically in Ravenclaw? Can you write your autograph here? Or send a message back in my direction? Sorry for all the questions. And don't let Lavender know about this.

I stared at it in complete confusion. What the heck? I look back to the further seats in the class. Who would be writing this? Amber stood up and looked around, waving the note madly in her hand. "Alright! Who wrote this?" She shouted. I slapped my face. Of course, she would disobey the orders of the letter. Of course, she would. Three innocent-looking boys at the back stared down at us. One ugly, one okay-looking, and the other quite handsome. "It was James!" Said the ugly one, pointing at James. James stood up angrily and turned on the ugly guy. "Severus, you know quite well it was Albus!" James pointed at a demented-looking boy on the other table.

"No, it wasn't!! It was Sirius!!!" Albus yelled, pushing another boy over. "STOP! Stop! You all know quite well that it was Liam!" Sirius yelled. Liam, the last person left, didn't deny it or say anything. Instead, he slouched back into his seat and scrunched his robe to his head whispering 'No, no, no, no, no." "WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!!!!!" Yelled Lavender. I jumped and so did Amber. Amber opened her mouth to speak but I cut her off, not wanting her to say something stupid that would get us into detention. "We were just- er- Just -"
