"Malfoy's Head Boy?!" Ronan shouts.
"Yeah, and I think he's changed!"
"Whatever." He shakes his head. "Who are the prefects?"
"You, Ginny, Luna, Zambini, Pansy Parkinson, and Ron." I say quietly, "We all share a dorm too. And, there's a new class being added to sixth, seventh, and eighth years schedules."
"What is it?"
"It didn't say..." I pause. "Did you see the new law they're trying to pass?"
"Yeah. Marrying us off? What about us? You know, because, we're Veelas..."
"No idea. "I sneak a glance at my brother. "Who do you think your mate is?"
"It's Ginny." He blushes scarlet. "Or, I think it is." He shakes his head, "it's just... Well, when she talked I felt like snogging her mad! I can't get her out of my head!" He takes a deep breath. "Any idea who your mate is?"
"No clue. It's not any of the Weasley's. Not even Ronald. Did you know that we die in a year if we don't kiss our mate?" I sigh. "Watch my mate be Zambini or Malfoy."
Ronan laughs, "I doubt it!"
"Whatever. We should go to bed. It's been a long day."
"That it has." He kisses my four head. "Good night dear Isla."
"Night Ronan."
The next five days pass uneventfully. After packing, I have had nothing else to do. The day finally arrives. The day to go back to Hogwarts. My brother and I arrive by apparation, and claim an empty compartment.
"Is this seat taken?" Ginny says plopping down next to Ronan.
"Now it is!" Ronan laughs.
"I need to get to the head compartment, and explain all of this," I say gesturing to my change self, "to Malfoy, and headmistress McGonagall. See all of you soon!" I say, blowing a kiss as I leave.
Walking down the train, I see people buying things from the trolley, playing exploding snap, and some crying. When I finally reach the head compartment, I'm so nervous that I continuously smooth my robes. I knock and The door opens. "Hello, Miss Beckett. Take a seat." McGonagall says, handing me some tea. "I am aware of your predicament, and all I have to say is congrats, and you will be res orted. I shall summon–"
We are interrupted by a knock, and Draco Malfoy enters the room "Hullo Professor."
"Draco, I'm Isla Beckett. Or Hermione Granger."
"I assumed as much, lovely seeing you again."
"You may get re-acquainted later. You shall assist the first years. And your dorm is the room of requirement. Good day to you both."
"Good day professor."
"See you at the feast."
