"Black!"

I'm walking in an empty hallway, ready for my next class. This morning has been insane. Malfoy, Parkinson, Grabbe, and Coyle got detention from some professor for trying to set the Ravenclaw door on fire. Martinez somehow talked her way out of it and from what I've heard, that little bitch has never been in detention.

I've been there six times. This year, I've decided to change my ways and not get myself into detention. This year will be my year. I will prove to everyone that I can do whatever the hell I want and not pay for the consequences.

I wonder how I even become the head girl? How the hell was I the best option? I am mean, bitchy, and selfish and I am definitely not a role model. The only thing I am actually good at is knocking some sense into people. I have a weird grip on other students. I've always been some sort of safety blanket for younger students, but somehow most of them find me comforting. Like I am some sort of big sister to them? Most of the students listen and actually do what I tell them to do. But being a head girl is not for me. Constantly patrolling, taking and giving points, and listening to people complain about everything is exhausting. The gossiping I don't mind, that's amazing. I know everything about everyone. And that's power.

I hear someone say my name behind me.

I turn around and see a familiar ginger running after me. George stops running to catch his breath and smiles widely. "I just wanted to say... thank you... We got the points back... so yeah. Thanks, I guess.

"No problem," I say and nod. I feel good about this. I made him happy, I sort of saved his ass from detention. That's cool, right? Wait, did I just do the right thing? For the first time in my life? And feel good about it? This is how it feels like To grow up. Haha, no fucking way, no thank you.

"Well... Everyone hated me... For a few days and... no one believed when I told them you'd give the points back."

"WHAT? YOU TOLD PEOPLE I'D GIVE THEM BACK?" OKAY, I CHANGED MY MIND. DID HE TELL PEOPLE THAT I'D GIVE THE POINTS BACK?

"Only my siblings and Harry and Hermione. No one else. I know you have your reputation." He says softly with a grin on his face. He rolls his eyes when he sees me glaring at him. "Clam down, Black."

"No one can know. EVER." Okay, and this is why I don't do good things. See, the thing is that these things are that they have to go unnoticed. If you tell everyone about the good things you do, you're just doing them for the show. It has to come from the heart, otherwise, it doesn't count. I felt like shit about the things I'd done and said lately and giving Gryffindor the points back was my way of saying sorry. No one has to know about that.

"Chill, I'll keep your secret." He says and smirks again. Oh, thank Merlin. For a second I thought I'd had to kill the whole Gryffindor house.

"Good," I say. We stand there in awkward silence, not knowing what to say. Should I just walk away? Run? Or stand there in silence?

Just when I'm about to walk away, he starts talking.

"Fred's getting out in a few days."

The mention of his twin brother's name got me rolling my eyes and turning away. I start to walk to my class, George following me.
