Into Another World

Chapter 26

Finally arriving at Hogwarts, hand in hand, Fred and I walked to the carriages. Sitting in a carriage, George and our other friends came and sat down with us.

Seeing our hands intertwined and the giant smiles on our faces, they finally realized that we were officially together.

George smirked and was the first to say something.

"I see the happy couple is finally together. So what's the name? Is it Frelah or Dred? Personally I like Frelah... It sounds like a salad dressing..."

Laughing at George, I had noticed another reason as to why I was friends with these people. They cheered me up and made me feel happy when I was upset over something. They kept my mind occupied.

Arriving at the castle, it looked just as marvelous as it did before. Entering through the main doors, I saw the ghosts that took residence at Hogwarts.

Smiling when I saw Peeves, I remembered all the times he's helped us prank Filch and other students.

Entering the great hall, I saw Dumbledore sitting at his usual seat. Next to him sat Snape, along with McGonagall. The only teacher I noticed that was missing was Hagrid.

Taking my usual seat next to the twins and Hadley, I waited patiently for the first years to enter. Like always, they were surprised by the great hall with its enchanted ceiling. Like always, the sorting took place and of course the Hufflepuffs got 3, Ravenclaws 7, Gryffindors 6, and lastly Slytherins 5. It was surprisingly a small group of kids compared to other years.

After the sorting like every year, Dumbledore stood up and gave us rules and a nice short speech. Halfway through, he told us we had a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Before introducing the short woman in pink, she stood up and walked to the podium.

With an annoying cough, she started speaking in a sickeningly sweet voice. She looked like a toad in my opinion.

"My name is Professor Umbridge. I will be your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Looking out at you all, I see your smiling faces and I know that this will be a great year—"

Cutting off listening to her, I look around the room. I snicker when I see that nobody is smiling. Even the twins sit their and whisper out loud, "That's likely..."

Zoning back into her speech I catch the very end of it.

"I will be monitoring this school year since I was sent here by the ministry. Let's make this year a good one shall we?"

With those words, she turned around and sat back down in her seat.

I glared at her, along with Fred and George. No way were we going to behave for someone like her. In fact, I think we might have a new pranking victim.

With my amusing thoughts, I didn't notice the food appear before me. I did however catch Dolores Umbridge looking straight at me. She must've caught my glare... Oh well.

Grabbing food and stuffing it on my plate, I ate like I've never eaten before.

"It's like she wasn't fed all summer..."

"I know what you mean George... But she did! I mean our mother made a feast every night..."

Looking up from my food, I glared at my boyfriend and his twin brother.

"Oh won't you two piss off once in a while? A girl has got to eat!" With another glare, I went back to eating my food.

"Well... Your girlfriend is quite scary Fred. Maybe she's monsterating?"

"George, I swear if I hear one more word out of you... You. Will. Be. Dead. BY TOMORROW!"

Screeching the last part, I took notice of the other Gryffindors surrounding me snigger, and then go back to eating. After the main meal disappeared, my favorite part arrived. Dessert.

Grabbing a treacle tart and some chocolate pudding, my mouth working like a vacuum sucked it all down.

"Fred, where does all of her food go? She's as skinny as a stick!"

Looking towards the voice that spoke, I was surprised to see Angelina Johnson looking at me in disgust. I glared at her and looked towards Fred.

I knew Angelina had a crush on Fred, but come on! Does she really have to act rude. News flash lady! It's not gonna make him like you!

Standing up, I waved goodbye to everyone and headed towards the Gryffindor tower. Giving the password, Lemon Buttons, which I have no idea why that was the password but oh well, I walked into the common room.

Looking around, I noticed it was completely empty. I was bored and needed someone to talk to. I wanted to get rid of my pent up anger.

Finally, someone walked in. I was happy to see it was someone I could trust. Walking towards the brunette, I grabbed her hand and dragged her over to one of the plush chairs.

Letting it all out, I told her about everything my step father has done, my mothers death, Unbridges arrival, and of course Angelina's hatred for me.

She comforted me and agreed with me when she was supposed to. See this is why she was my best friend and the only female I could trust other than Lily, Ginny, and Hermione. They may have been two and three years younger but they were great company.

Finally, I was exhausted. Heading upstairs, I crawled into my bed and closed the curtains on my bed. Falling asleep I let my mind forget about the troubles I was going through. Instead, I dreamt of the good things.
