"Detention?!"



"Yup" I muttered glumly at breakfast the next morning as I swirled the porridge around my bowl, having no urge to eat it at all as Daphne stared at me wide eyed, Pansy sitting down beside her a moment later



"What? How?"




"I attacked Malfoy that's how-"




"Why did you do that?"




"Because he was being a twisted, bombastic, boorish, brainless piece of shit" I said annoyed as I dropped my spoon loudly in my bowl and pushed it away from me as Pansy looked between us with a look mixed with curiosity and amusement




"You used a lot of words starting with 'b' there" she pointed out laughing as a small smile grew on my face and I shook my head

"But anyway, what have I missed?"





"Amelia got a detention"





"Wait, She did?"





"I did"





"Nice" She said nodding her head with approval as the two of us started laughing, Daphne sitting there with an unimpressed look before a smile started to grow on her face




"Shut up- at least she didn't lose house points-"




"Even if she did and she's decided not to say she'll just get them all back by the end of the day" Pansy said amused as Blaise and Millicent took the seats either side of me as Pansy turned to me and dug around in her pocket with a sheepish smile

"Here's your letter..."




"Thanks, you read it didn't you?"




"I'm sorry I got nosey" she apologised laughing as I shook my head and tucked it away

"Aren't you going to send it off?"




"I don't know where Chiara is, and plus I need to rewrite it and add another few things in-"




"Like your detention?"




"Yeah-"




"What? You got a detention?!"




"I'm just going to cut all of you off just to point out that your owl is flying towards us right now" Millicent said as I followed her gaze as I caught sight of Chiara flying towards us as another few birds flew in around her as she landed in front of me and started hooting as I raised my eyebrows at her




"Don't use that tone with me missy" I said to her with a pointed look before gently taking the letter from her beak as Daphne looked between us and laughed as Chiara turned her head to her and hooted as she quickly stopped




"Christ I'm sorry- that's a weird bird"





"Don't insult my owl! She'll hear you!" I said to her laughing as I looked at Chiara who still had her eyes on Daphne as I flattened her feathers down to get her attention as she turned to me and I reached out and passed her a piece of toast before opening the letter, recognising Oscars overly looped writing



"Who's it from?"




"My brother"




"You have a brother?"
