Chapter Six: Suspicious Acts
Colette's Point Of View
And after the most EPICEST dinner in the land, I manage to lug myself and the extra stone or so up a hundred and sixteen steps to land myself outside the common room. I counted. Don't judge, "So we have a password," Fred began to explain,
"And so does every house in the school," George continued,
"What? All four of them?" I asked sarcastically,
"No. All three." Fred went,
"The Ravenclaw's are too cool for a password. They have a 'riddle'." George said, putting speech marks around riddle and I laughed a little,
"So what's ours?"
"Fortuna Major." Fred said.
"Ok then. And you just say it to the portrait?" I asked and they both nodded. Ok let's try this, then. I walked up to the portrait and looked at it, "Fortuna Major."
"Oh my goodness! You're Colette!"
"OH MY GOD! IS THERE ANYONE IS THIS SCHOOL THAT DOESN'T KNOW ME?!" I shouted, "What does Harry do in his spare time?! Read my biography?" Fred and George started laughing at me but the portrait didn't look impressed, "Sorry." I said, "It's just everyone's been going 'You're Colette' all god damn day and it's really beginning to wind me up."
"Oh don't worry dear. I mean, I maybe should have asked you once you'd settle in a little. It's just I hear so much about you. The famous Harry Potter often talks of a Colette from his muggle home. I haven't confused you with someone else have I?"
"No. I am the very same." Great. Convosation with a portait. Watch me guys, I'll be jumping off the Ravenclaw tower next.
"Oh, good. Well, In you go!" She smiled and swung open. I went to walked in when Fred grabbed my shoulder,
"Careful of the step." He said and jumped in first, helping me through.
"I can get down a step, Freddie." I said with a smile,
"I like to help." He grinned and moved so George could stand next to him. I turned around and looked about the room. It was completely decked out in gold and scarlet decorations, rugs and furniture. There was three brown couches around a roaring fireplace and portraits were hung all over the walls. There was book shelves and a table with eight surrounding chairs, a total of three windows and two staircases, one leading to the left, one to the right. "Ok, so theres the dorms, " Fred said, pointing up the stairs,
"You're on the left. We're on the right."
"Your stairs turn into a slide when we climb them,"
"Which is pretty funny,"
"But very annoying,"
"Notices go here," George said, moving around the room,
"You do your homework and all that crap here," Fred said banging his hands on the table,
"There's a load of books for when you're bored,"
"Or if we have a fancy dress party and you decide to go as Hermione, you just grabbed a book and you're all set."
