Justine was once again back in the familiar walls of her favourite place, Hogwarts.

Christmas had been quite a lot, to say the least. Melissa had finally broken up with Roger and being rude as ever he did not find this news particularly upsetting, he seemed as if he couldn't care any less.

Justine had spent her holidays with Atticus as usual, she still hadn't told him the news. How was she supposed to tell him that they weren't twins? It would break his heart.

She began to collect her things for her first class Transfiguration, on her way she bumped into Laura and George who seemed happy as ever. The two of them were absolutely adorable together, yet like her and Fred still were not official.

She hadn't seen Fred since she had come back, however, they had written letters over the holidays but didn't manage to meet up. Most of the letters consisted of Justine venting to Fred about whether or not to tell Atticus about who her true Dad was.

Her and Professor Snape had exchanged the odd letter, although it felt very weird to Justine that her potions professor for almost six years was actually her father the whole time. She wasn't quite sure as to how they could ever catch up on all the lost time.

She sat down at her favourite desk in the Transfiguration classroom. The desk was facing and beside two windows which allowed her to look outside and explore the grounds, although Justine payed attention as she had to do well in the five N.E.W.T.s she had selected in order to be accepted for auror training. She had chosen Potions, Transfiguration, Defence Against the Dark Arts and Charms.

Her Defence Against the Dark Arts professor was interesting to say the least, he was called Mad-Eye Moody, she didn't like this Professor as much as she liked Professor Lupin, who was an amazing Professor and Justine was terribly sad when he resigned right before her N.E.W.T.s began. However, Mad-Eye still taught her so it wasn't as bad as it could be.

She began preparing herself for the lesson with Professor McGonagall, she placed her quill and notebook on the desk, along with her textbook. Suddenly a tall ginger boy bolted into the classroom and sat down hurriedly.

"Late again, Mr. Weasley." Professor McGonagall tutted

"Sorry Professor." Fred chuckled, Justine kicked him in the shin under the desk. Fred winced "Sorry" Fred cleared his throat.

"Right class, before we begin your first class of your N.E.W.T.s Transfiguration course, may I once again warn you that these classes will be harder. Expectations will be higher. Deadlines must be met and lateness will not be tolerated." McGonagall stared at Fred. "These subjects are vital for your future career paths and should not be taken lightly."

There was absolute silence amongst the class, no one dared even move.

"Please turn to page 5, so we can kick things off." McGonagall smiled as she opened her copy of the textbook.

"My goodness!" Fred exclaimed as they walked out the classroom "if looks could kill.", Fred rested his arm on Justine's shoulder and pulled her close. "Missed you love." He whispered in Justine's ear, causing her to blush.

Fred, Justine, George and Laura all strolled into the Great Hall, their brains hungry for food after such a long class. Justine was going to have to start getting used to the longer classes and the significant in attention that will be required. The four sat down, Justine and Fred on one side and Laura and George on the other. The four got to eating.

Soon enough they were joined by Atticus and Melissa, Melissa had just come back from Charms and Atticus from Care of Magical Creatures. The two were beaming at each other. Justine started at Fred and he too was wondering when they would be official. Justine stopped looking into Fred's thoughts, it wasn't a good idea. She had some sort of ability however, she thought it'd be best to read up on it rather than use it recklessly.
