Emily Black (HP FanFic)

Chapter. 14

"Are you really Harry's cousin?"
"How old are you?"
"Do you have muggle parents or do they have magic?"

I didn't hear the rest. Harry was trying to get us away from all of the people that were surrounding us. I was glad when we were finally at the Gryffindor table. Hermione, Ron and the twins were already there and asked if I was okay, I nodded and got something to eat, I was really hungry from being in Diagon Alley. We talked and laughed and by the time lunch was over I forgot about everything for a bit.

The next class was DATA. We had few minutes before the class started so we went to the Gryffindor tower and got our books.

We got to the classroom but we had to wait for a while and that was when I first met Draco Malfoy. "So this is Harry's cousin" he had a smirk on his face "It's to bad she's a mudblood, I thought we might become friends."

I didn't understand what he was talking about but the next thing I knew Harry was charging at him. Hermione and Ron stopped him and not a second later the door to the classroom was opened professor Lockhart was standing there. We would have to talk about it later.

I noticed that almost all the girls were mezmerised by proffesor Lockhart, I didn't really see why.

"Finally, this was so boring, he was just talking about himself the whole time. I really don't understand why the girls like him." I looked at the trio, Harry and Ron smiled but Hermione looked embarrest and a bit angry. She was about to say something but Harry interupted

"I know, he was in the bookstore in Diagon Alley when we were buying the stuff for the school year and he made me go up to where he was standing and there was this man from the Daily Prophet who was always taking pictures, it was horrible." We laughed a bit but then Hermione said that we had to go to potions class and Harry and Ron looked very unhappy, I didn't really understand why but then I remembered that professor Snape thaughed that class. I was nervous but I walked to the class wondering how this was going to be.

After potion class was supper. We walked to the Great Hall and while we were walking Hermione asked me what I thought about poion class. After a moment of silance I said that I thought it was okay and I kind of liked it, professor Snape looked a bit angry when he was talking to us but I thought it was okay because I had had a worse teacher. I liked the potion class itself, I was a bit confused at first but after a while I thought it was rather easey.

"Boo!!"

I screamed and turned around fast. George was standing there with a big smirk on his face and Fred was standing near Harry, Ron and Hermione and they were all laughing. I hit him on the arm and he flinched even if I'm sure it didn't hurt. 

"I'm sorry" he said but it didn't look like he was that sorry. "How was your day?" he asked with a smile. I laughed a bit and told him about what I did in those classes, but when I told him that Draco called me a mudblood George stopped dead in his tracks and the rest looked a bit angry. "What does it mean?"

"It's a real bad word for someone who is muggleborn" George said and looked really angry, kind of like he wanted to kill someone "But you shouldn't listen to him, he's just trying to look cool or something," Hermione said "It's no big deal, he said it once to me."

She made it sound like it was no big deal, but I knew she was hurt by it. Soon we were in the Great Hall and we walked in silance to the table. After diner we went to the common room and studied.

We had a bit of homework to do but it didn't take that long. Harry and Ron started teaching me wizarding chess after we finished homework. I liked it, I was rather good and I won many times. When it was 10 o'clock we desided to go to bed.

Me and Hermione talked for a bit and I learned that she also likes to read.
She showed me a book that was about Hogwarts, it was called Hogwarts a History. I got to borrow it.

It was another sleepless night, after about half an hour I decided to go to the common room and read.
There was still a bit of fire in the fireplace when I came down so I decided to just lay on the floor by the fire, that way I could read and stay warm at the same time.

I was still Reading when someone tapped me on the shoulder. "Have you been here all night?" I heard George ask. "What... What time is it?" I asked when I looked up.
He laughed and said it was half past five in the morning. "Oh, god, I've been reading for six hours!" I said but that just made him laugh harder. "Dear Merlin you're even worse than Hermione!" he said.

I couldn't help but laugh with him, his laughter is infectious.

We started talking and talked for the rest of the night, or should I say morning, until we saw kids comming down to the common room, it's the secound time in a row, I don't know why but I feel comfortable around him, I feel like I can tell him anything.

I ran upstairs to get dressed and get the books for today and hurried back down.
Hermione was still getting ready when I went downstairs and Harry and Ron weren't there yet so I decided to go down to the Great Hall, granted if I didn't get lost on the way.

Just as I was about to go to the painting where the door was George came to me and asked if we should go together. We went to the Grate Hall and got something to eat.
After about fifteen minutes I saw Harry, Ron, Hermione and Fred coming in.
They sat down, Harry beside me, Fred beside George and Hermione and Ron opposite to us.

After breaktfast we went to class. Me, Harry, Ron and Hermione to history of magic.
George and Fred to potion class.
