The next day at breakfast I walked into the great hall first after having unsuccessfully woken my friends. Even Lily groggily hit my with a pillow before turning around the other way. In the end I just sighed deeply and got ready by myself before heading to get breakfast. As I walked to the Gryffindor table I saw a girl sitting alone eating by herself. I assumed she was one of the new transfers so I grabbed a plate and sat down across from her helping myself to the food in front of me. I looked up when I noticed her staring. She was very pretty with dark brown hair that matched with her dark hazel eyes. I inwardly smirked as I immediately thought about Sirius,

'Oh how he's going to fawn over her'. I realised I had probably been staring to long so I awkwardly cleared my throat.

"My apologies, i'm Alice Dumbledore, I hope you don't mind me sitting here" I said grinning at her secretly crossing my fingers under the table that she wouldn't get angry at me or something. Even though I doubted she would.

"Oh no, it just gave me a shock really, i'm Verity Krum" She said smiling back.

"Well, it's a pleasure to meet you Verity" I responded before I heard loud voices advancing on the hall. Loud voices only meant one group in the school.

"Good morning all" Sirius yelled into the hall the few students sitting in the hall didn't even bother to look up as it was a normal occurrence. The few students that did look up I noticed were definitely the new students.

"Sirius mate, shut it would you, i've got a headache this morning" James complained as they made there way over.

"Oh sorry Jamsie, was I bothering you" Sirius practically yelled in James ear.

"Leave the poor guy alone would you" I exclaimed to Sirius as he smirked in my direction.

"What a surprise, Alice Dumbledore is awake early" Sirius sarcastically said to me whilst the boys started piling around.

"For your information, I couldn't sleep, and it seems you are ignoring the guest sitting near you" I said rolling my eyes watching as both Sirius and James turned to look at Verity. Remus and Peter who were beside her had already introduced themselves and were piling up their plates with breakfast foods.

"Oh, hey" James said waving. I just rolled my eyes and facepalmed before turning to Verity.

"My apologies, that dork there is Sirius Black, and this ones James Potter" I said pointing a thumb at both guys sitting beside me.

"You have the choice to run now" Peter joked.

"Run? Why would I need to do that?" She asked before it dawned on her as she looked over and spotted James mess up Sirius' hair making Sirius mess his up until they were practically wrestling on the floor.

"Does that answer your question?" Remus asked shaking his head at the two before returning to his food.

"I think it sums it up well" She said before smiling slightly at the two before also shaking her head. "You know, they remind me of my brother and his friend, I caught them rolling each other down the stairs once to test whether you could get physical injuries from it" She said rolling her eyes. I laughed slightly.

"And how'd that turn out?" I asked curiously.

"As well as I thought it would, my brothers friend got a nose bleed and my brother fractured his wrist, so not very good I think" Peter, Remus, Verity and I all burst out into laughter.

"Whats so funny?" Sirius asked after standing up and brushing himself off.

"Oh nothing, nothing" Verity said dismissing the entire thing.
