How?

Chapter Three

Another short chapter guys, sorry >_<

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I was still laughing by the time we got to the carriages.
After I'd calmed down I looked around for my brother.
I stood on my tiptoes and tried to see above the sea of people, tripping over my own feet and stumbling, falling into a group of second years in front of me as the carriages rolled towards us.
I grabbed Hugo's wrist and dragged him towards a carriage when I noticed my brothers heading towards the same one.
I smiled to myself and quickened my pace, yelling their names until they turned around.

"Al! James!" They turned and smiled when they saw me, dragging Hugo too.
"Lils! We've been looking for you!" James exclaimed as he opened the carriage door for me.
I smiled gratefully and climbed in, glancing around at all my cousins, wondering how they'd all managed to fit in.

After an eventful journey of arguing, yelling and several games of exploding snap, we managed to make it to the castle with ourselves intact.
This, however, couldn't be said for poor Hugo who had somehow manage to jinx himself and left the carriage in a strop the moment we got to the castle with his ears resembling that of an elephants.
We all followed behind, still in fits of giggles as we entered the castle.

I yawned slightly, a wave of fatigue washing over me.
"Hey guys, I'm gunna skip the feast and go straight to bed, it's been a long day" I stretch my arms and smile weakly at my brothers.
Rose rolled her eyes and sighed.
Dominique didn't even pay attention really.
"Bye then, I guess" she mumbled as she played with the ends of her hair, wasting no time as she quickly walked away, towards the Great Hall. Everyone else followed, Hugo (who's ears had reduced to their normal size) just smiled sheepishly and followed.

After they went I walked slowly down to the Slytherin dorms, smiling to myself. I was so glad to be back at Hogwarts.
This was my most favourite place in the world.
As I got to the door I cursed under my breath, realising that I don't know this terms password.
I racked my brain, thinking of what it could-
"Hungarian Horntail" a quiet yet confident and familiar voice spoke from behind me.

I turned to find Scorpius Malfoy stood behind me.
That's stupid permanent smirk plastered on his face.
"Ugh you" I mumble and walk through the now open door, trying to avoid him.

He was quicker than me.

He stopped just in front of me.
"Hi" he smiled at me.
I rolled my eyes "I'm trying to get to my room, can I go please?"
He chuckled slightly as his smile widened.
"What If I don't let you?"

I sighed and whipped out my wand.
"Petrificus totalus!"
And within a matter of seconds he was frozen on the spot, unable to move a muscle.
I sighed.
"That's what happens when you don't let me"
And with that I just walked up the stairs to my room, collapsing on my bed and falling asleep within minutes.

\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ The Next Morning \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

I woke up late.
I could tell because once I sat up in my bed, glancing around and noticing that everyone else had gone down to breakfast.
I jumped out of bed and rushed around, trying to find my uniform and put it on before putting my hair into a messy bun, grabbing my wand and running out of my dorm and towards to the Great Hall.

When I got there I walked over to the Slytherin table, taking my usual place beside my best friend Lucy Burton.
She smiled excitedly at me.
"I heard your brothers are going to do it!!" She almost screamed as soon as she saw me.

I stopped just before sitting down, looking at her, confused.
She gasped over-dramatically.
"Merlin, I forgot! You weren't at the feast last night were you? You don't know..."
I sat beside her and sighed.
"Know what? What're my idiot brothers doing now?"

She just grinned at me even more.
Her calf brown eyes sparkling.
"The Tri-wizard tournament is coming to Hogwarts for the first time since your father took part! And your brothers are putting their name forward for it"
