Today was our trip to Hogsmeade, and also the day before the first task in the Triwizard tournament. I decided to put on a red woolen top with black leggings and a plaid patterned green and red scarf. After putting in my brown leathered boots, I followed Hermione and Ginny out the dorm.

I decided to split my time in Hogmeade, first half of my day with Seamus, Dean, Lee and the Golden Trio, and the second half of my day with Pansy, Blaise and Daphne.
As we all lined up in our houses and schools outside the gates, everyone was holding their permission slip tightly, especially Harry.
"Wow your first time in Hogsmeade Harry, you seem really excited."
"No I'm actually a bit more nervous, what if I loose all my money or my items get lost..." he babbles.
"Harry! There is no need to worry, it won't happen. Just have fun!" I calmed him down.
Suddenly, the gates to Hogsmeade and everyone hurried to give Professor Mcgonagall their permission slips. After I gave mine to her, I went to Honeydukes Sweetshop where my friends and I have agreed to wait. Soon, one by one, everyone arrived at our meeting shop and we went to shop together. We looked at candy shops, apparel shops, magical equipment shops, stationary shops, joke shops etc.
"We should all go to The Hog's Head (pub) now!" Dean remarked.
I checked my watch and realize it was 12:30 already, 5 minutes till I have to meet my Slytherin friends at Madam Puddifoot's (tea shop).
"Can't guys, I have to find go to um... Professor Mcgonagall for my detention!" I lied.
I couldn't let my friends think that I'm skipping time with them just to be with Pansy, Blaise and Daphne, they with most likely despise me for it. Carrying my shopping bags, I waved goodbye to them and headed to Madam Puddifoot's.
I tapped my foot on the ground, waiting for my friends as time passed by. After 15 minutes of waiting they finally arrived. Snow came down and even with the thick jacket, I still shivered under it.
"WHERE WERE YOU GUYS I WAS WAITING FOR SO LONG!!!" i screamed.
"my earsss Y/N... sorry we were drinking butterbeerrrr... and we forgotttt..." Blaise slurred.
My god... they're drunk on butterbeer! And there is such a low amount of alcohol in it!
"How much butter beer did you drink?" I asked.
"Ugh never mind about that, let's go shop now." Pansy demanded.
We linked hands together a skipped out of the shop. We looked at shop windows but nothing I haven't seen before caught my eye.
"Should we go in the Shrieking Shack? I an soo bored!" Daphne suggested.
Blaise and Pansy nodded, but I shook my head.
"Hell no! That place is haunted and I am not trying to scare the shit out of myself."
"Y/N, Y/M/N, Y/L/N!! You are coming with us!!!" Pansy screamed.
"No way."
"Yes."
"No!"
The next thing I knew, I was with my friends walking towards the Shrieking Shack.
"You guys are lucky I am so nice." I groaned.
Three of them smirked at each other and continued walking without saying a word. After we arrived a few yards away from the entrance to inside the Shrieking Shack, we were about the go in when the branches of the tree started to vibrate, the ground was shaking like an earthquake was happening.
"Omg I forgot about the Whomping Willow!!Everybody run!" Pansy shouted.
We all tried to run from the tree but the branches tied around our waist and started swinging us around and we all screamed as loud as we can, but because it was far away from Hogsmeade, no one heard us.
I looked around and realised for some reason, Pansy was able to run away just enough that the branches of the Whomping Willow weren't able to reach to her.
"PANSY! PRESS THE KNOT ON THE BASE OF THE BASE OF THE TREE!"
Miraculously, Pansy was able to hear me and as the tree was waving us around, she spotted a single knot on the base of the tree and ran toward it as fast as she could. She reached her hands out and pressed the knot just in time. The tree immobilised and we were let down. We looked down the hill and faraway we could see student leaving Hogsmeade already. Just as we were about the follow them, we heard a voice behind us.
"What do you think you guys are doing?" Professor Mcgonagall asked sternly, "This is a prohibited area!"
"We... um..."
"Ten points from each of you, so ten from Gryffindor and thirty points from Slytherin. Also detention for you all tonight for 2 hours and tomorrow mourning, if you don't reach my standards with the first detention."
"But that isn't fair to-" I started.
"Do you want to make that twenty points Y/N?" she asked.
I immediately shut my mouth.
She brought us back to the entrance of Hogwarts and walked behind us. Some people stared at us and just as we were about to leave the gates, I heard a whistle and turned towards it, Draco raised his eyebrows and started doing some type of sign message. He made a writing movement and then a throwing movement, which made me feel a bit confused. But then i suddenly knew what he meant and made a thumbs up.
Hi sorry this chapter is so short, I prise there will be an update in the next chapter!
Question of the chapter: what do you think Draco meant with his sign message? Would you consider this as flirting?
