I can't believe that it all went so smoothly..., I thought whilst making my way to the library.
I just got the opportunity to brew a sixth year potion- with Cordelia nonetheless which should be quite amusing, and I got a free pass to wander around in almost every nick and cranny that is Hogwarts!

Well except the restricted section... I thought bitterly.

But still, I can go almost anywhere at any time, even without Cordelia.
I got the Professor to allow that with the excuse of needing extra time to learn for my one true calling Potions. Her utterly delighted expression was priceless.

I didn't want to ruin this little victory by invading Professor Novas mind, I'm sure that there will be other opportunities to ask her to give me that permission slip for the restricted section.

'Talking about books," Momo's voice suddenly popped into my mind.
'Did you forget about the now completely unharmed diary that belonged to your dearest father?'

I stopped dead in my tracks.

I had completely forgotten about it!
'Well I'm sure that it can wait until after I'm done with this advanced potion assignment,' shared through the mind link.
'After all, it can't really do any harm without a soul.' I added whilst opening the door to the library and letting Momo sashay in.

'Did you forget what it did to your bed? What makes you think that-'
'Hush Momo,' I thought back at him with an annoyed mental voice.
'I will have a look at it later on this week if it makes you feel better.'

And with that I started to look for some advanced Potion books.

I glanced at the clock,feeling slightly irritated at Cordelia's lack of punctuality. The blasted girl was five minutes late- surely it didn't take a tiny shrimp this long to eat.

"You do know how dodgy it is? You know, a boy and a girl together alone in a room at night?"
An obnoxious voice drifted from the corridor.
"Juliet, we're just brewing a potion together. That's all. Besides, how old do you think we are?" Cordelia replied in resigned voice.
"You guys head off to the common room, I don't think he's comfortable with you two."
The dungeon door opened revealing Cordelia wearing jeans and a thick puffer jacket.

"Sorry I'm late, I got held up by these two," she jerked a thumb at the direction of the door, which cued a series of immature giggles.

"It's alright, don't-" I started to say but was interrupted by yet another fit of girlish giggles.
"By Merlin, excuse me for a second," she stormed up to the door, wrenched it open and started a heated hissing argument with her friends.

A blonde pushed Cordelia's protesting form out of the way and gave me an over the top grin.
"Hey Aileena-" she stopped at the murderous glare from Cordelia,"er Aileen! Mess with Cordelia, and I swear-"
"By Merlin's hairy ass! Juliet just get out!" Cordelia bursted out before pushing her friend out from the door frame and bolting the door which made me stifle a laugh.
She gave a weary sigh before shooting me an abashed smile.
"Sorry about that, Juliet's a little..." She twirled her finger in a cuckoo sign.
"She seems,'' I started, slightly unsure how to continue. "err- entertaining." I finished with a small smile.

"By entertaining you mean crazy in a comedic way, right?" She replied with a wiry smile.
"Well, I was thought not to judge a book by its cover, so I'll just stick to the entertaining part." I answered, quietly motioning for her to sit down.
