Everything was set for the school assembly that afternoon. Proffeser McGonagall had giver the students in the club the morning off to prepare for it. Everyone was practicing their lines when something dawned on Lucas. "We need a name." He said to Anna who was sitting on the worn out red carpet beside him. "What?" Anna asked. She had been half way through reading her speech and wasn't really paying attention to what Lucas was saying. "A name." Lucas said again."For our club." He elaborated.
Anna laughed. "I love how this is what you're thinking about right now." Lucas grinned."You know me. Always worrying about the important stuff." Anna laughed again."You're right though." She said. "We should have a name." Why don't we brainstorm names in the next meeting?" Anna said."Yes we shall." Lucas said in a funny voice making Anna giggle and kiss him on the cheek.
Allen watched their interaction with discust. He knew he had no right to be jealous, praticularly after how he had treated Anna for so many years but he just couldn't help it. Allen hadn't really realized how much he had been in love with Anna until after he stopped talking to her, as odd as that sounded. It had been a mistake to let her go all those years ago especially now that he knew that she once loved him too. But he had been young. Young and scared and everything was new and different. It was a mistake. He knew that even thirty seconds after he had made it. He didn't deserve to be in Gryffindor. Allen wasn't brave, he was a coward.
He sighed as he watched Lucas and Anna. What an odd pair they made. He thought to himself. The muggle-born Slytherin and the Hufflepuff Lestrange. They were well suited though, Allen had to admit that. And they were happy. He supposed he wanted Anna's happiness more then anything. Even if it meant a part of him broke every time he saw her.
Allen somtimes wondered how he had ever been sorted into Gryffindor in the first place. When he thought about it though he realized he didn't really belong in any of the hogwarts houses. He wasn't smart or cunning like Anna, nor kind and brave like Lucas. He wasn't really anything. Except a coward. And a fake. Allen put his head in his hands sadly, wishing more than anything he could turn back time.
The assembly went really well as far as Lucas and Anna were concerned. Everyone had done well and the students watching were shocked to see Hermione Granger participating in it. In fact it went so well that ten more students had requested to be in the club that evening. Anna was absolutely exhausted after the whole thing took place and felt like a truck had run over her. This was quite bad timing particularly because Anna had a potions assignment due that next day and hadn't finished it yet.
Lucas and her had both been doing school work together in the room of requirement that night when Lucas noticed that Anna had fallen asleep with her quill in her hand and her head on her potions assignment. Lucas smiled and walked over to her. He picked her up bridal style, brought her over to the couch and layed her down. Carefully not to wake her. He then walked over to her assignment which had been almost completed when Anna fell asleep and quickly finished it for her, before laying down next to her and falling asleep as well.
