Andy's POV

"Andy wake up!!" Leila calls "We're going to be late for our first class if you don't hurry up!"

I swing out of my bed and quickly throw on my robes. As I hurry down into the common room, I notice that Leila is the only one there.

"Everyone else has already been to breakfast and are heading to the first class." Leila says as we walk out of the Gryffindor common room.

"When are we going to see Dora?" I say, trying to be civil, even though I'm mad at my sister for choosing a different house.

"Probably in Herbology. That's the first class we have with the Hufflepuffs." As we walk down the steps, I try to bit my tongue, but am unsuccessful.

"I can't believe she made me pick first just so she could blindside me like that!"

"Oh Andy. I sure she didn't mean it like that." Leila replies, turning her head to give me a half exasperated,  half sympathetic look.

"Then why did she make me go first and then choose the house that's two tables away from ours?!" I start to get annoyed, Leila of all people should understand where I'm coming from. "I think the little smarty panted brat just wanted to get rid of us!"

Leila glances over her shoulder before replying, "Andy I'm sure Dora will explain when we see her."

"I honestly don't even care to hear whatever lies she'll come up with to explain why she would do that. I never want to see her pathetic face again!"

"You really are stupid aren't you?!" Someone speaks as they shove past us "My face is your face! In case you've forgotten,  we're identical twins Andy!" As she gets in front of us I get a glimpse of who it is. It's Dora,  her face stained with the tracks of tears.

"Dora?! I thought you were already in class."

"I didn't see you at breakfast so I thought I would meet you outside of your common room, but I see now I wouldn't have been wanted anyways." Dora runs, leaving me in front of Charms. Wondering how in the world I screwed up so badly.
