Hey guys!

I don't really know if someone is going to read this.

But if you are, you should really know that this is FICTION It's not happening for real(the people I'm talking to know what I mean)

Moving on. This is my new story and I hope you like it.

Happy reading!


It was the happiest moment of my life. Looking down at all the faces beaming down at me and screaming my name was a sight to remember. My friends were waving their hands frantically in the crowd and I waved back just as enthusiastically. It was a great day for all of us.We're finally receiving the reward for all our hard work through out the year.

No. I am not graduating today. It's something much more important. Today is the day Ravenclaw got the house cup and the quidditch cup. It's the moment of utmost importance and as a captain of the team I was called up for receiving the cup. Just as Dumbledore was presenting me the cup, it was within my hands reach. I out stretched my ha-

"Wake up you lazy snooze. We've gotta get to practice before class starts."

I woke up startled at the loud voice screaming. No it wasn't my prerecorded alarm nor is it my bestfriend screaming for me to wake up. It was my stupid neighbors kind friend who decided to wake up the whole apartment with his sweet voice at 6 in the morning.

This was routine for me 3 days a week. I shifted in my bed with a groan and looked out the window. It was still dark. I let out an annoyed sigh and got up to fix my bed. This was an annoying habit of mine. I can't sleep if I woke up after after 6 a.m and I'm a really light sleeper.

Even though I'm an early riser 6 a.m on a winter morning is a bit too early for me.I usually get up at 6.30 since my classes don't start until 7.45.

Loud banging broke the last strings of my wonderful dream and I rolled my eyes at the ratchet he is making. He's lucky considering me and my neighbor are the only ones on the floor since the other 2 flats are unoccupied at the moment.

Just as I couldn't take the noise anymore I walked out of my bed room to the living to open the door and politely ask him to quiet down I heard the sound of door opening. I heard a thump and an exaggerated ouch before I walked towards to the shower.

I was setting up the water to the hottest temperature I heard a knock on the door. Thanking god that I didn't strip yet since then I would have to wear them all over again I peeped through my main door. It was Matt. My neighbors best friend.

I opened the door and gave him a smile. Just because he woke me early doesn't mean I'm going to be rude to him. I raised my eyebrow when he just stood there without saying anything.He gave a sheepish smile and scratched the back of his neck.

"Good morning Eva! I'm really sorry for waking you up early again but this idiot shut his phone off again. I had to come up all the way and wake him so we don't get late to practice." He really did look like he was sorry.

"You know I could still be sleeping after that if you didn't knock on my door right?" I teased.

"Yea right. I know you couldn't sleep after that. You never do. You really should stop being such a light sleeper you know. You'll never get to sleep in." I guess he's right but it's not like I hate it. I actually like having time to myself before my hectic classes.

I shrugged and said "You know what they say, early to bed early to rise." That was a lie though. I don't sleep early.I rarely sleep before midnight. Who does that any way?People in military schools?

"Nice pjs by the way. " He snorted at my yellow night gown with a little girl yawning saying good night. It reached a little under my mid thighs and looked funny but it was pretty comfy.So I'm not complaining.

"At least its better than your girly stretching pants and hoodie. Its the only thing I ever see you in. This or your leather jacket." True though since he always comes here before practice.

"Yea well- He was cut off by a grumpy voice "Are you gonna come in or did you come here just to stand in the doorway and chat?"

There comes my neighbor. He doesn't bother being friendly neither does he lets others do it.He walked out his door and glared at his friend.He looked like he just rolled out of his bed which i guess he did. His tall frame blocked most of the doorway.

"What are you, A girl scout? Knocking on peoples door and making chitchat." His voice still held a hint of sleep in it.

"Shut it mister.Not everyone is an anti-social like you." Matt was now just trying to get on his nerves.

"Whatever. I am gonna get fresh and we'll leave in 10 mins. Don't doze off on my couch like last week." He then turned to look at me like he just noticed me and nodded his head like in some spy movies.

"Good morning to you too Jace." I said before I could stop myself. It's not that I didn't want to wish him. Okay may be I didn't! But can you blame me? He acts like I stole his secret stash of skittles.

He looked surprised at that. What? Was I rude or something? I wasn't meaning to. He just gave a long look and just as I was about to say goodbye and head back inside he finally said "Good morning Eva."

"Guess its better late than never." I shrugged. Then I turned to Matt and told him that I gotta get ready. I looked at Jace and nodded my head like he did before.

I almost closed my door before I saw them walking inside too and I think I saw his mouth twitch upwards a tiny bit. I shook my head and closed the door completely.

I had one broody neighbor.
