Lola Honeysuckle Higgins had transferred from Ilvermorney that summer. She was going into her 4th year, where she would begin her work on her OWLS. Despite studying in America previously, she was British, and had lived in England up to the age of 10. Now she had returned, and, like most Hufflepuffs would be, was very excited to have lots of space in her new home for pets.
She did have insecurities, of course. Starting this late at a new school would mean she would find it hard to mingle with other students, and it would be almost impossible to slide into a friendship clique. Never mind all that, her parents had said. It was important for her to thrive in her studies, and achieve the best grades she could in her OWLS. Her aim was to be the Hufflepuff Hermione! She had only met the legendary woman once, but she had never forgotten the wisdom radiating from her eyes as they spoke.
Now sat in Professor Colander's office, Lola's nerves were at an all time high, and this was increased as soon as a tall handsome stranger strode in, a book clutched in his hand.
