At 7:30, I had eaten, showered, changed 5 times, and screamed into two pillows. After a terrifying nightmare about the war, I got zero sleep. At 8:00 I walk towards the fireplace and sit cross-legged next to Draco.
"Kid, McKinnon and I want an explanation! And a view of the fiancé, but first an explanation!" Sirius yelled.
"You'll get both because my fiancé is going to help me explain." I scoot over so Draco can be seen, "Sirius, Mar, this is my fiancé, Draco Malfoy."
"Hi Mr. Black, Ms. McKinnon." Draco squeaks.
"Narcissa owes me 10 galleons! Yes!" Sirius screams. Marlene elbows him, "Explanation, right."
"So, on the first night of school, this cat appeared in the fireplace and said 'Your time is short daughter of Beck. Heed my words' and disappeared." I nod at Draco to continue.
"So then, Iz and I started thinking. Cats=Bast, Beck= Fighters of Apophis, Apophis=Bast, and everything = bad."
"So, if you guys could do some digging on the outside, while we write essays for Couple Skills, Life of Love, and Child Care, it would be a huge help!"
Sirius laughs, we say our goodbyes, and the clock reads 8:25. 20 minutes until we gotta talk to Remus.

"So, what you're telling me is that your family is connected with Egyptian gods?"
"Yes, Remus..."
"I'll send you everything I have." He pauses, "Oh, and Draco, be careful with our little girl."

While Draco and I are making breakfast for everyone, Pansy and Ron storm into the kitchen in a screaming match.
"We can't just not have a wedding ceremony, Ronald!" Pansy exclaims, "I'm being forced to marry, while still in school! Can't you just let me be happy?"
"Pansy! I don't think you get it, if we had a ceremony; first off, my mother would take over, second, we'd have to invite my entire family, and third, if we have a ceremony, it won't be classy and gorgeous, it'll be crazy, judgmental, packed, impossible, and therefore not at all enjoyable!"
"Draco? Isla?" Pansy turns to us, "Any advice?"
"Ron, I would keep Molly under control, with Ginny's help, of course. And, ask your mother for a small wedding, I'm sure she'll understand.  That eliminates crazy, packed, and impossible." I go to Pansy's side,
"If you're worried about judging, Luna, Neville, Blaise, and I can work on that." Draco offers from the griddle.
"Half the time, I think you forget who your friends are..." Pansy sashays back to their private dorm.
