Miss Ravenclaw

Six

I rolled out of the bed and straight onto the hard floor. "Ouch." I moaned as I got up. Ailish just sat there reading 'his dark materials'. She didn't even flinch when I fell, she was just too focused on her book. "Ailish?" I asked, getting up from the floor. "Yesssss." She almost whispered, carefully turning the page. "What's quidditch?" I asked, pulling on my robes and slipping on my shoes.

She sighed putting the book down. "Come on I'll show you." I frowned confused of where she was going to take me. I didn't know if it was some weird Slytherin cult or perhaps a code word for something, but I generally had no idea what this "quidditch" was.

We walked down the corridor at a considerable pace but as ever got stuck behind other first years. I noticed that one in particular was Rose. I was about to go over to her and ask her to join us when another first year Slytherin knocked her to the ground. "Watch where your going Hufflepuff." She hissed. I felt my cheeks getting hot with rage and I grabbed my wand but didn't quite remove it from it's pocket. "Excuse me but there is no need to be so rude. I demand you apologize right away." I said, catching the girls attention. Her blonde hair glistened slightly in the sun. "What if I don't want to?" The side of her lip curved up into a side smile. "Trust me, you will." I pulled out my wand but pointed it towards the ground as to not threaten her directly. "I apologize." She said looking down at Rose who was now getting up. "I accept your apology." She said brushing off any dirt that may have collected on her robes. Satisfied, I put my wand away and addressed Rose. "Ailish was about to show me what quidditch is, would you care to join us?" Her eyes lit up and she hugged Ailish. You could she her physically stiffen at Rose's embrace. "Quidditch? Sure why not." The Slytherin purred and began to walk with us. None of us invited her, nor stopped her from following but instead just walked down the corridors in a big mixed house group.

"I am never doing that again!" I stated, getting of the broom. "Aww come on that was fun." The Slytherin said smiling widely, pleased with her skill. "Shannon you nearly knocked me off the broom." She shrugged and laughed. We had begun to walk back to the Hufflepuff common room so we could all hang out when a familiar high pitch annoying voice entered the hall. "Hello Alexandra." Naomi...
