Leta follows me as we go into the Library. I see Newt in the corner, nose in a book called 'Know your Magical Creatures'. We walk over to him.
"Hey, Newt. It's us." I say. He looks up.
"Hey, you came. You actually came." He says, stunned.
"Well of course we did." Leta says.
I look at the page he was reading. Bowtruckles. I've always wanted a Bowtruckle.
"Reading about Bowtruckles I see." I say.
"Yes. I really want one. But Mum won't let me. She says that if I had one it might get hurt by the Hippogriffs."
"You have Hippogriffs!" Says Leta.
"Yep. Mum breeds them." He says.
"Lucky." I say.
"So, how have your lessons been?" Asks Leta.
"Alright I guess. I can't wait for third year. There's a class you can pick to do for OWL's called 'Care of Magical Creatures'!" He says.
"That's sounds like a good class." I say.
He smiles.
"I can't wait for Divination!" Says Leta. She does like that sort of thing. As do I.
"I know right. I like looking in the glass orbs and interpreting the tea leaves and-"
I see Newt sticking his nose back in the book.
"Hey. Don't turn back to the book." I say.
"It's ok. You can keep talking." He mumbles.
I sigh. I hate Newt being so shy. So he might not have many friends. That's never stopped me. He's so nice. He doesn't deserve the bullying.
"Come on Leta. We might as well go now." I say.
We walk out of the library. I look back at Newt. He's still reading. I smile slightly. At least he has friends now.

Newt's P.O.V
I collect up my finished homework and leave.
"Oh look, it's a little salamander!"
A hand yanks it out of my hands. Oscar and Solomon sneer at me.
"Hey, give it b-back." I say.
"Oh I don't think so. This is Charms homework, right?" Oscar continues.
I nod. A smirk creeps onto his lips.
"Perfect."
He tears my homework in half. I feel my heart sink.
"No..."
He drops the pieces on the floor and they both stand on them, crumpling them. I watch them walk away, tears stinging in my eyes. I scoop up my homework and walk to Charms. Professor Quick is going to kill me!
