I woke up and smiled. First day of my 6th year in Hogwarts. Then my smile faded when I remembered who I had to spend it with. I jumped out of bed and grabbed my clothes I was going to wear. A baggy tee and black ripped jeans. I slipped on my combat boots and grabbed my backpack. I double checked to make sure I had all my books and that stuff. I heard Peyton stir and I turned to see her rubbing her eyes tiredly.
"Hey Pey, did I wake you up?" I whispered. She shook her head.
"Just wondering why you are up so early." She asked crossing her legs and watching me double check I had everything. I shrugged.
"Can't wait till Quidditch." I said. She gave me a look.
"that's not till Saturday"
"I know, the faster the week goes by the faster Saturday will come." I shrugged. She laughed.
"You are such a kid." She said shaking her head. By now all the girls were getting up. Victoria walked up to us.
"So, what happened last night?" She asked. I groaned.
"He said he wanted to be 'friends' " I said putting quotes with my fingers around the word "friends"
"And..." Peyton asked. I sighed.
"I said I would try." I said. They glared at me.
"We know the real Gracie, and she would not just say 'I will try' " Victoria said.
"Am I really that bad?" I asked. They both nodded. I sighed.
"I said 'your lucky I'm nice' " I said.
"Now that's the Gracie we love." Peyton exclaimed. They both attacked me in a huge hug.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever." I said quietly.
"Now go get dressed before I ditch you guys for the twins." I threatened. They gasped and hurried off to go get dressed. I chuckled and shook my head. Victoria got dresses in sweats and a sweatshirt. Peyton was dressed in colored leggings and a matching sweater. We all walked down the stairs to the common room. We made our way to the dining hall. Students were eating, quietly chatting or laughing. I smiled at the sight of my favorite place in the world. I spotted the twins and their brother and sister. I walked over to them.
"Hey." I said sitting next to Fred. He smiled at me.
"Hello love." He said mocking Zayn's accent. I punched him hard in the arm causing George to laugh.
"Ow!" He exclaimed. I chuckled and took some food and started to eat. The girls did the same. I kept catching the town's little brother looking at me, and it was getting scary.
"Why is your brother staring at me?" I whispered into Fred's ear. He looked at Ron and laughed. I looked at him puzzled.
"What?" I asked. After he caught his breath he explained.
"He has a small crush on you " he said. My eyes widened.
"Ew." I muttered under my breath causing him to laugh. Then I heard the doors open and footsteps walking towards us. I groaned knowing who the footsteps belonged to.
"be nice" Victoria said elbowing me in the gut. I nodded and looked up. There they were. The five of them. I huffed and kept eating. They all sat at a cross from us so the table looked like this:
Ginny Harry Zayn Louis Liam Niall
Ron George Fred Me Victoria Peyton
"Good morning!" Niall said in a cheery voice. I glared at him and kept stuffing my face. They just put on the nice act. He scooped a HUGE amount food on his plate. How could such a skinny boy eat that much?
"Isn't that enough" I chuckled. He looked up and smiled, mouth still full of food.
"Nope!" He said popping the p.
"Classy." I said laughing. He rolled his eyes and kept eating. Harry and Zayn talked to the twins and Liam and Niall talked to the girls leaving me and Louis in an awkward silence.
"So, you play Quidditch?" He asked. I smiled at the subject.
"It's my life." He smiled and nodded.
"you?" I asked. He nodded.
"I'm a Keeper." I said. He nodded.
"Chaser." he said chewing. I nodded.
"Trying out?" I asked. Please say no, Please say no.
"Yea." He answered. I sighed.
"Well your talking to your Quidditch caption so try to make an good impression." (a/n: I know Wood is but pretend she is, just makes the story more interesting.)
He looked surprised at first but then nodded.
"Man of little words?" I asked.
"Are you kidding me? This idiot will never shut up!" Zayn said slapping Louis back. I raised my eyebrows at him. He shrugged and finished his breakfast.
"This food is way better that Durmstrangs." Niall said having his second plate.
"You would be the one to know." I joked with him. He smiled triumphantly. I rolled my eyes.
"Can't wait till Quidditch try outs!" Fred exclaimed.
"I KNOW RIGHT!!" I screamed. We high fived.
"GRYFFINDOR, GTYFFINDOR!" We chanted. We got weird looked from people but did we care? HECK NO! Everyone laughed at the twins and me.
"Any of you guys play?" I asked.
"Beater." Harry said. Fred and George's faces hardened.
"Sorry, that spot is taken mate" Fred said through clenched teeth.
"Alright mate, take a chill pill" Harry said putting his arms up.
in surrender.
"Okay!" They said before popping two fake pills in their mouths. Talk about some scary mood swings. We all laughed at their childish behaviour. I almost forgot that I despised them. they were pretty nice guys, but I have trust issues so they will have to gain my trust.
"Chaser." Niall said.
"Same" Liam said. Great, now they might make it on the team. Wait, they might play trash. But look at their muscles, man do they work out. UGH! What am I thinking!
"Well we will just have to see if you are any good." I said before getting up and walking off to my first class, potions.
