Rose Between Two Thorns.

Chapter 9

"Carry on my wayward son" I sing standing in front of the bathroom mirror, applying my make-up "There'll be peace when you are done...."

Someone pounds on the door, causing me to jump and turn. "Are you almost done Tabs?" I hear Abigail shout through the wood.

"Almost" I shout back. Turning to the mirror again, I pout out my lips and wipe away excess lip gloss.

"Done" I shout, picking up my pyjamas and make-up bag, and unlocking the door, to reveal a hopping Abigail.

"Wow what's the rush little rabbit?" I ask. She growls at me.

"I have to piss" she shouts and bolts into the bathroom locking the door behind her.

"Did not need to know that" I shout back, walking over to my bed. "Lay your weary head to rest....don't you cry no more" I sing again, as I place my pyjamas on my messy bed and start to make my bed.

"Are you singing?" Katie asks from next to me. I jump.

"No, wasn't singing....at all......maybe" I say fluffing up my pillows.

"You're good at singing" she comments, making me blush.

"Haha noo, if anyone is good at singing that would be Fred." I say "I mean, have you heard him singing? Its like.....wow" I gush.

"FREE THE PEE!!!!" Abigail shouts as she walks back into the room.

"NOOOOO" Katie shouts back at her. Laughing, I fold my blankets over each other, and smooth out the wrinkles.

"You two are bonkers" I say to them.

"We can't be bonkers without our bonkiest girl ever" Katie says jumping over my bed and pulling me into a tight hug. I protest while Abigail does the same thing, and pulls the both of us into a hug. With me in the middle of course.

"Agh you two...your messing up my outfit!!" I protest, squirming against them.

"Oh we wouldn't want that, cos of your little date with Freddywinkles" Katie says, pulling me even tighter. I squeak.

"I don't want to die before my date" I gasp. The girls let go of me and I exaggerate my heavy breathing. Katie folds her arms, while I straighten up my clothes and tuck a wisp of hair behind my ear.

"Now, go to your date" Abigail instructs. I pull at the dress a little.

"Do I look okay?" I ask.

"Hon, that boy has drooled over you since like last year, I think you will look perfect to him no matter what." Katie says.

Inhaling deeply, I smooth out my dress one more time before exhaling and walking out of the room.

"Use protection" Abigail calls out. I snigger at her joke as I walk down the stairs into the Common Room.

"Heya Tabs looking good" a boy from across the room wolf whistles at me as I walk past. Rolling my eyes, I head to the couch where Hermione is busy reading.

"I note I seem to be the only one who has bothered to get dressed today" I say slyly as I sit down next to her. She raises her eyes from her book to look at me and then goes back to reading.

"Yes well, unlike you missy some of us actually want to stay in this weekend and study" she says.

Gasping, I place my hand over my heart "Hermione Granger wanting to study? I never heard of such a thing" I say rolling my eyes. I hope she knows that I'm joking. "C'mon Mione, a few drinks of hot Butterbeer and a bit of shopping could do us all some good, plus I need your help with picking up a couple of things from a shop in Hogsmeade" I add.
