I sat eating ice cream outside Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour with Lucy in Diagon Alley. We had been staying at the Leaky Cauldron for the past couple of nights waiting for the Weasley's to get home from Egypt. Fred and George said they would be coming to the Leaky Cauldron shortly after they returned.
"Lucy! Emily!" We suddenly heard a voice call from the crowd.
Oliver Smith and Bella Goldstein, a Hufflepuff and a Ravenclaw in our year, emerged from the crowd. Lucy met them on the train our first year and I had grown fond of the two of them.
"How was your summer?" I asked greeting my friends.
"It was amazing! We had such a great time!" Oliver yelled.
The two of them were best friends and had spent the summer together in America.
"You have to go to America if you get the chance! It's so nice over there!" Bella said.
"Sounds like you had a great time." Lucy said laughing at their enthusiasm.
"Well, we better get going, I can see my mum waving at us." Bella said. "See you at school."
We said goodbye to our friends and decided to make our way back to the Leaky Cauldron.

"I don't know, she said she'd be here." Fred told his brother.
"Maybe she's in Diagon Alley." George replied.

"Hi boys!" I said.

I was immediately tackled in a hug, making me giggle.
"We missed you!" The twins said in unison.
"Aww that's nice." I said sarcastically.
"You missed us too, just admit it." Fred said, pointing a finger at me.
"Alright, alright! You got me!" I gave in.
We made our way downstairs to where the rest of the Weasley family were, and I was greeted with open arms.
"It's good to see you, dear." Mrs Weasley said, greeting me with a hug.
"Good to see you too, Molly. I hope you had a good holiday." I said hugging her back.
I sat down at the table next to Hermione just in time to catch part of their conversation.
