Seventh Floor Corridor

"Al!"

Alula sat against a cold wall on the seventh floor. Streams of tears meddle with her vision as she rubbed her hands against each other. Alula could hear two people approaching.

"Al, come here," Hermione said, kneeling to her level and embracing her friend tightly. Alula sobbed into her shoulder.

"Thank you," Alula mumbled before yawning.

"Let's get you back," Ron smiled.

Ron and Hermione walked Alula back to the Gryffindor Common which was still bustling with the celebration of winning the Quidditch Cup. This did allow, however, Hermione to begin to direct Alula up to their dormitory without much fuss, that was until they bumped into Cormac McLaggen.

"Black and Granger!" He boomed, revelling in the party's spirit. "Come and have a drink!"

"Actually, we were-"
