"So Isla, what do you do in your spare time?" Marlene asks me, in my living room after dinner.
"Read. I also know how to play Quidditch, but I'm rubbish, so I don't play much."
"Quit being modest!" Ronan says nudging me, "You and Ginny are the two best chasers I've ever seen!"
I roll my eyes. "Whatever. I mainly read."
"I can tell. Top of your class too?" My godmother smirks.
"Yeah." I lean over and whisper, "I'm also Head Girl. But don't tell anyone."
"My lips are sealed!"
We sit there and talk, when all of a sudden, the prettiest our I've ever seen flies in the window, with a letter for me. I excuse myself, to read in private.

Hermione Granger,
I congratulate you on receiving Head Girl. Let me apologize for all my past errors in our "relationship". I do hope you can forgive me.
With deepest regrets,
Draco Lucius Malfoy

I smile at the letter. The ferret may have been a prick, but I recognize that he's changed. I go upstairs, grab parchment, a quill, some ink, and begin to write my response.

Draco Malfoy,
I return the applause, and accept your apology, but know that I've changed. I am no longer her my knee Jean Granger. I am Isla Delphine Beckett. I shall explain on the train.
Your new friend,
Isla Delphine Beckett

"Who was it Iz?" Ro asks from the doorway.
"Tell you later?" I respond.
"Sure." He nods and starts downstairs. "They're leaving, you should say goodbye."
I follow him down the stairs and hug my godparents, and Remus goodbye. "Bye Mar. Sirius. Lupin."
After they leave, Ronan stares me down. "Tell me! You said you would!"
"Fine! But first, I need to tell you something."
"Which is..."
"I'm Head Girl!" I shout with jazz hands.
"Oh! 'Mione-er-Iz! That's awesome!" Ro gives me a big hug. "But who's Head Boy?"
"I was getting there..." I take a deep breath. "It's Malfoy..."
