Back to (Sirius) Black

▪︎▪︎▪︎

The Gryffindor house was sent back to the Great Hall almost immediately. In about ten minutes, the other Hogwarts houses joined as well.

When Cedric entered the Hall his eyes searched for Gwen and instantly relaxed when he saw her amongst her friends. 'What's going on?' He mouthed to her when he saw that she had his attention. 'Later.' Gwen mouthed back.

The headmaster and teachers entered the Hall, the entire faculty talked in a silent mutter so that no student could hear.

"Oh, yes you'll be needing these," Dumbledore said, this time his voice was loud and clear as he intended for the students to hear. With a simple wave of the hand, the four house tables disappeared and hundreds of purple sleeping bags took their place.

Gwen bent down to grab the sleeping bag from next to her feet and saw that her nightclothes was inside.

"I guess we have to go and change," Angelina stated as she also looked at hers.

"Wait, is it safe to go to the bathroom?" Alicia said as she held her two friends back.

"I'm sure. I mean where do they expect us to change? In the middle of the Great Hall where hundreds of people can see you?" said Gwen.

Angelina pointed her finger at Gwen and nodded her head, indicating that what the brunette was saying was true. "Plus, a bunch of people already went."

Alicia sighed. "Fine, but if I get murdered, I'm blaming it on you." She said as she hoisted the sleeping bag over her shoulder.

Gwen rolled her eyes. "If you die then there would be no one to blame. Now hurry up before the bathroom gets too full." Gwen stated as she pushed the girl out of the hall.

Just like Gwen said, the bathroom was already full of girls from different houses. It took them quite some time to find an empty stall so they decided that all three of them should just enter together.

Luckily, the stall they entered was big enough for all of them to fit in.

"What do you think Sirius Black wanted from the Gryffindor Common room?" Angelina asked as she took off her clothing. Alicia shrugged.

"Okay, I'm going to tell you something which you aren't supposed to know. So please, don't tell anyone." Gwen said after thinking about it for a while.

"We won't," Alicia claimed and Angelina quickly nodded her head.

"As you know Sebastian is helping out on the search and Black is apparently after Harry." Gwen finished.

Alicia let out a gasp while Angelina stood there emotionless.

"Oh, it's all about Harry Potter! We should have guessed that ages ago." Angelina stated as she folded up her clothes.

"Don't be mean. I'm sure he doesn't want the attention." Alicia exclaimed. Gwen was about to side with Alicia until something caught her eye.

"Wait for a second... is that what I think it is?" Gwen asked as her eyes tried to focus.

Angelina also followed Gwen's gaze and gasped as soon as she saw it. "Gasp! Merlin's beard! Is that a love bite?!" Angelina exclaimed in a comically loud voice and both Gwen and Alicia shushed her.

"What? No! I fell." Alicia replied, covering her neck with her hand. "On your neck?" Gwen exclaimed with raised eyebrows.

"Yes, that is actually what happened! Can we go now?" She said. Gwen and Angelina finished changing and Alicia opened the door, more than happy to get away from the pair.
