A day or two after the first year exams had finished. Charlotte was in the library where she overheard the golden trio talking about going down the trap door. Charlotte didn't think much about this, she presumed it was something about one of their defence against the dark lessons, therefore she continued to go about her daily business.

At 5 after Charlotte completed her detention with Snape for spilling some polyjuice potion she wandered back to the common room, only to be dragged away very quickly by a very eager Isla and a curious Kathleen.

"Ow what the bloody hell do you guys want?" Charlotte asked her two best friends who had draged into their dorm rooms for no apparent reason.

"Well.... Charlotte as we all know you have a crush on Freddie, right!?" Isla stated like it was the most obvios thing in the world.

"No I do not have a cruch on Freddie! Why do you keep on insisting that I do?" Charlotte asked the two girls

"Look Charlotte we all know its true so stop trying to deny it! Its so obvious im shocked the whole school doesnt know already!"Kathleen said. Charlotte chose not to respond because she knew liked Fred in that way however she still hadnt come to terms with it hence why she ws always denying it to everyone that asked.

"But anyway basically, we needed to tell you that if you want anything to happen we heard that both Angelina and Poppy Greengaurd in Ravenclaw like him and next week Poppy is planning to ask him to go to Hogsmeade with her on the last trip this year!" Isla rambled out all in one breath.

"So.... your point is?" Charlotte asked who was now even more confused then she was when she walked in.

"Our point is that if you want to be more than friwnds with Fred you need to act fast beacsue he may nit be single for much longer." Kathleen told the youngest in the room

"But what if he doesnt like me like that? it would be awful we then probably wouldnt be friends nymore and he would hate me and so would George,Lee, Angelina,Poppy and Alicia! most of the school would probablhy hate me!" Charlotte yelled

That's  not rue and you know it, besides Fred deos like you like that we can see it in the way he looks at you! hes just too stupid to act upon his feelings because hes well Fred." Kathleen reassired her.

After more integration from Kathleen and Isla, Charlotte decided she had enough and she announced she was going down the kitchens to get food. While the brunette was taking her trip to get some blueberry muffins she heard the golden trio mention the trap door again and something called Fluffy. That's when it clicked in Charlottes mind that the three were going go down the trap door to rescue the Philosophers stone tonight.

Before the young girl had got her blueberry muffins she was sprinting down the corridors to try and reach Professor Dumbledore's office before he three eleven year  olds made the stupid decision to commit suicide. When she had arrived the golden Gryffin Door was beaming in the light. Charlotte could have admired It all night however she knew her brother could be in danger so she had to stop and try to think of the password she know it was probably a sweet as their old headmaster had a nack for sweet things.

After yelling out the names of a near to a hundred wizard sweets and nothing happened Charlotte proceeded to start in a new tactic of yelling out muggle sweets. After around 15 attempts she shouted 'Sherbert Lemons' and The door opened and Charlotte walked on to the golden stairs that were ascending to the professors office.

Once the young girl had reached the office she knocked on the door and she told the professor everything about what the three young Gryffindors were doing that night. Dumbledore seemed very calm about this however he reassured the young girl he would investigate and bring the three first years back to safety, he told the thirteen year old to go back to the common room and take her mind of the event and that he would update her once he had a clearer understanding of what the three young wizards were doing beneath the trap door.
