CHAPTER FIVE
❛I feel sick❜
Students of all types walked towards the carriages, Neville Longbottom and Hope Lupin walked slower than usual as they were cracking jokes to one another and talking about the school year ahead of them.
"What subject are you excited for?" questioned Neville.
"Defense Against the Dark Arts. Papa will actually teach good stuff." the Lupin girl started to laugh.
Neville joined in on the laughter. "I hope so, Lockhart and Quirrell were awful."
"You're telling me--"
Before Hope could finish her sentence, she landed face first into the rough gravel. She went to stand up but was pushed back down by the same force. As she stood up, blood on her hands and knees, she stood face to face with Freya Reed and Pansy Parkinson.
"Oops, didn't see you there." sneered Freya, who was Pansy's fellow Slytherin best friend.
Pansy let out a dark chuckle. "How could you miss her? She takes up the entire walkway."
As the two laughed together, Freya took a step closer to Hope, now standing face to face. "Maybe the skank should stay out of our way."
"Leave her alone." Neville managed to blurt out.
The Parkinson girl took a step closer to Neville. "What are you going to do about it, Longbottom?"
"He doesn't need to do anything." they all turned around to see Cedric. "Touch her again, and you'll lose Slytherin 100 points and have detention for the entire year."
Freya stepped away from Hope and eyed the Hufflepuff up and down. "Who might you be? Just some pretty boy?"
"Prefect, actually." he smirked. "Now go."
As the two girl walked away, Hope just sighed and brushed the dirt off of her leggings. She wiped the tears out of her eyes and Cedric just eyed her.
