Reality Bites Harry Potter

George is a Troll Face!

I couldn't believe we got in trouble! "How on Earth did Snape even know we were going?! It's not like we were loud or anything" I sigh. "He probably stalks all the Slytherin students like the stupid snake he is" Hannah spits. Susan still looks like she's going to cry so I hold her hand. "Don't worry, Susan. I won't let anything bad happen to you, I promise. Plus it's only 3 days. This time next week it'll all be behind us." I say and she smiles softly. "Thanks, Shayla" she says softly. We head to bed and get up early the next day, eager to talk with the other 3 and see if anyone knew anything more about last night. We get to the great hall and see 3 very down faces. "Please tell me you three learned something more last night" Pyper says and I sigh "I was hoping you had" I mumble. Pyper rolls her eyes. "Great... we get detention and learned absolutely nothing in the process" she sighs. I make a face and start eating. "We should do our own research tonight after detention. Maybe with our sister powers we can learn something" I say and she nods. "Are sister powers even real?" Hannah asks and I roll my eyes. "Of course they're real! I always find the best solutions to my problems by talking to my sister" I say and Pyper smiles. "Same here. I think it's because we have opposite personalities, we can look at things from opposite perspectives" Pyper says. I sigh. "Yeah, whatever she said. Lots of big words I got lost" I admit before finishing my food and jumping up. "Our first period starts in 10 minutes, we have to go" I say and Hannah and Susan follow me. We get to herbology and I smile. I loved herbology, or really anything to do with plants or animals. Professor Sprout was talking about Devil's Snare and I was taking notes. "You can't honestly be interested in this" Hannah mutters and I give her a look. "I honestly love this so yes I am interested" I mumble back. She rolls her eyes at me. "Then let me borrow your notes when this is over" She says grinning at me. I roll my eyes. "No! If you fail, then that's your own fault!" She stuck her tongue out at me. Oh god, did I just pull a Hermione? "Did you just pull a Hermione Granger?" Susan's quiet voice asked. I looked at her shocked. "Did you just really say that? That's such a Harry Potter thing to say!" Susan just looks confused. "What do you mean by that?" She asks. "Don't worry about it," I say panicking slightly. Oops, it just slipped out. Hannah looks at me a bit suspiciously. "What? Pyper has talked to him a bit and told me about him." I say trying to cover up my slip up. She frowns but nods. "Whatever" She mutters as Professor Sprout moved on to telling us about how to get out of Devil's Snare. By the the time lunch time came around, Hannah, Susan, and I were planning on going on another adventure soon. Of course I'm not going to tell Pyper. If she knew that we were going to visit the Forbidden Forest, even she would've been against it. I mean, I know there's a lot dangerous things in there, but it's still so exciting. What does she expect from an eleven year old? She's only a year older than me, but her soul is like thirty. "I don't think this is a good idea." Susan mutters, looking uncertain. "It'll be fine. You don't have to go if you don't want to" Hannah says rolling her eyes a bit. Susan blushes. "N-No, I want to go too. I just don't want us to get hurt" She says looking down at her shoes. "Aw, you're so cute!" I squeal, hugging her. "Trust me, we'll be okay. We just have to stay on the path right?" I say trying to comfort her. "Okay," Susan says smiling. "Good, then when should we go?" Hannah asks excitedly. "Let's just wait until we're done with Snape's detentions. I don't want to be in detention for a whole month." I say frowning. "We're gonna get more detention!?" Susan asks wide-eyed. "Well behaved never made history" I say bobbing my head back and forth. "What about more detention?" Pyper cuts in as she walks up behind us. "Nothing, sister dearest!" I say chirpily. "Who are you and what have you done with my snot-nosed sister?" She says. I roll my eyes at her. "I'm right here." I say scowling at her. "Oh, there you are. I was worried you got attacked by aliens or something," She says looking relieved. "Or deatheaters," Susan mutters. Hannah, Pyper, and I just stare at her. "Wow, I'm just learning a lot of new things about you today, Susan." I say surprised. "Who are you and what have you done with Susan!?" Pyper shouts wide-eyed. Hannah rolls her eyes. "You can't use that line on everyone Pyper." She says sighing. "Well, why not? It's fun. You don't own me, you can't tell me what to do!" She says, storming off. "Everyone meet my sister," I say sarcastically and rolling my eyes. "And the truth comes out!" Fred says walking up with George. That's the point where I just freeze. "Hello Fred and George," Hannah greets them. I don't say anything like an idiot, because I'm socially awkward. "What? Does a cat have your tongue?" George teases. This breaks me out of my spell. I glare at him. "No, but a troll has your face!" He makes a face. "What are you, five?" George asks. Fred just cracks up laughing. "You do realize we have the same face" George points out. Fred freezes, but not for long. "Yes, but I'm the more handsome one" He said grinning. You can say that again. I think, almost blushing. "Shay agrees with you Fred," Susan says and I just die on the inside. My face was so red, I looked like a tomato I'm sure. "What?" George, Hannah, Fred, and Pyper say all at once. "Pyper, shut up. You're not involved with this" I say glaring at her. Fred smirks at me. "Is that true, Shay? Do you really think I'm the most handsome?" He asks. "Well, when you're competing with a troll face, of course you're more handsome" I say before running off to the library.
