SUSAN AND HANNAH slowly walked into the Great Hall for breakfast, a few days before Halloween. Yawning, they sat down across from Ernie and Justin, who were in the midst of a conversation.
"This match between Slytherin and Gryffindor is going to be intense! I heard that Potter and Malfoy got into another fight, so there's bound to be blood," Justin said.
"I don't doubt it. Especially with how the Slytherins acted at the last Gryffindor match, with Weasley being Keeper, and all," Ernie replied.
Hannah sighed, "I swear you boys only talk about quidditch! Don't you enjoy doing anything else?"
The two boys turned to face Hannah. "Not really," Justin shrugged as Ernie started stuffing his face with food, staring at the table.
"Really?" Susan Asked, shocked. "Cass actually plays quidditch, and he barely talks about it. He prefers to leave it for when he's on the pitch."
Ernie's head shot up, his eyes filled with confusion and anger. "When do you talk with Warrington outside of class?" He asked with a mouthful of food, which made it sound like "web do yiu chalk shith jarton ounsite ov clath?"
"Ernie, don't talk while you eat, it's absolutely filthy," Susan warned.
Ernie swallowed then opened his mouth mockingly, showing that he was finished, then spoke again. "Since when do you talk to Warrington outside of class?" He asked again.
"In study hall, in the library after dinner, in the hallway on our way to class, whenever we run into each other, anytime, really," Susan replied.
"That- that's absurd! Why are you talking to that- that- Death Eater?!"
"Ernie Macmillan! What on Earth has gotten into you? Why the Hell would you call Cass that? He is not a death eater!" Susan whispered angrily, trying to control her temper.
"Because he is-"
"Shut up, Ernie! You're just jealous because Susan has friends other than you and Justin. Maybe if you were more open minded, you would be able to make friends as well, but seeing as you're a narcissistic arse, I don't believe that will be happening anytime soon!" Hannah shouted. Many students around the group of four stopped talking and stared at them. Hannah grabbed Susan by the arm and the two girls fled the Great Hall, leaving Justin alone with Ernie, who was cursing loudly at the girls.
Neither of them noticed Cassius stand up from the Slytherin table and start to follow them until Ernie started shouting at him as well.
"Oi! Warrington you stay away from them! Don't you dare go hear them, leave them alone you bloody Death Eater!"
At Ernie's words, many of the Slytherin students stood up and started shouting and hissing at Ernie, trying to defend their's and Cassius' honour.
