The next few days pass in a blur of homework, Quidditch practices, and social interactions. When Tuesday finally arrives I'm the first one awake for once. I put actual effort into my hair for once, determined to make today as amazing as possible. We go to breakfast and I sit down. It's no longer an issue that Fred and George sit with us, it's become such an everyday occurrence that I barely notice him in the mornings. For some reason though today, he notices me. "Morning, Shay" Fred says, smiling at me. I smile back and George rolls his eyes. "Gross" he mumbles and I frown. "Are we talking about your morning breath again, troll face?" I ask and he makes a face at me. "No, I was talking about my brother's poor life choices" he sighs and Fred glares at him. "Can't be any worse than yours" Cho says, flipping her hair as she walks by. I can't help but smirk, despite the fact I hate her. I am interested though to see what George is talking about. "What poor life choices have you made this week, Fredward?" I ask and Fred looks confused. "I don't know what you're talking about" he mumbles and George laughs. "I can't believe you answered to Fredward. Mate, get your life together." he teases and I smile sweetly. "Don't worry, Georgiekins, there's plenty of time for me to ruin your life too" I tease getting up to head to class with Susan and Hannah behind me. "You're gonna die" Pyper sing-songs and I smirk as we head to class. I have a hard time focusing, so excited for our trip to the Forbidden Forest later tonight. I'm so glad when finally the last class of the day is over and all I have left is Quidditch practice. I thoroughly enjoy practice, flying is so fun. Plus, I'm really good at it so it flies by super fast. I shower really quick after practice before heading to dinner to meet up with the others. I sit down at the table and start eating, getting more excited as the evening goes on. Soon enough dinner is over and then it's just time to wait. We decide to work on our homework until everyone else goes to bed, if only to look like we aren't up to anything. Once it gets late enough we sneak out of the commons area, carefully sneaking outside. "The forest looks even more forbidden at night" Susan mumbles and I roll my eyes. "If you want to turn back you better do it now before we actually go in. I'm not leaving early because you get scared" I whisper. She makes a face at me but continues following me into the forest. It's really not all that scary. There's lots of really cool creatures in here and plants I'd never seen before. I was definitely going to have to bring Pyper here some time. Everything was going well until I heard squeals. "That sounds like a horse" Hannah says and I follow the sound, wanting to help the poor creature. I get to the wounded animal and I freeze. The poor thing was almost dead, it had lost so much blood. "Girls... we need to go get Hagrid" I say, looking at them panicking. "We can't tell him! He will get us in trouble!" Hannah says and I roll my eyes. "I can't just leave it! I'm going to get Hagrid" I say, running to his cottage. I pound on his door and he sleepily opens it. "There's a unicorn that's hurt really bad!" I say, panicked and he wakes up quickly. "Where is it?" He asks and I lead him into the forest where Hannah and Susan are still waiting with the weak unicorn. "You girls really shouldn't be out here" he warns but he picks the unicorn up, carrying it back to his cottage. "I may be able to save her yet" he says and I hug him. "Thank you so much! I couldn't just leave her to die" I mumble. He rubs my back. "I know exactly how you feel" he says softly. "Now why don't you girls go back to the castle and get to bed. Wouldn't wanna get caught" he says and I nod, leading the girls back inside. We manage to sneak our way back to the commons without being spotted. We head to bed and then all groan the next morning when our alarms go off. None of us really want to get up but I manage to drag myself out of bed and only be about 10 minutes late to breakfast. "You're late" Pyper teases me and I roll my eyes. "Are you ok?" Fred asks me softly and I sigh, nodding. "Just didn't sleep very well last night" I mumble, biting into my toast. Of course my luck the one day the house elves burn the toast. I eat it anyways, not realizing how hungry I was. Soon we are off to Herbology. Usually I love Professor Sprout's class but today I just couldn't seem to stay alert. I almost killed one of the plants, earning myself a lecture and a paper on the proper care of magical plants. I then trudged my way to history of magic and promptly fell asleep through the lecture. It wouldn't have been so bad had I not woke up just in time to hear Professor Binns tell us that the troll wars would be on the end of term test. "Please tell me you got notes" I mumble to Susan and she frowns. "Sorry, Shay. I fell asleep too" she mumbles. "Fuck" I mumble to myself, trying to figure out how to fix this. Overall, it was the worst Wednesday in the history of all Wednesdays and now I had to go to Quidditch practice. I never thought I'd say this but I am dreading practice. I get on my broom and take off, zooming around keeping an eye out for the snitch. I see it and go to grab it but almost die in the process, flipping upside down on my broom. I scream before finally righting myself and landing safely. Herb gives me a worried look and I sigh. "Sorry I'm just really not feeling well today" I say and he nods understandingly. "Why don't you go ahead and go rest. I will tell Sinistra you're sick so you won't get in trouble" he says and I smile. "Thank you" I say, heading to the dorms and fastly falling asleep.
