Flint's sister

Chapter 5

Anna's POV

Draco, Blaise and I climbed up the ladder towards Professor Trelawney's room. As we climbed out, we were hit with the strong smell of burnt candles and lavender. It was extremely warm and I feel quite tired.

"Eurgh, that smell" Blaise said pulling off his robes, leaving him in his jumper, shirt and trousers. "Good lord, no wonder nobody likes her" Draco says doing the same. We walked up the sets of stairs to get to the circular table in the back corner. There were no chairs, instead there were dark purple pillows with a gold trim that which matched the cloth on the tables. I sit down on the one in the middle and the boys sit either side. I also take off my robes now, putting them behind me.

When I see Harry's signature messy black hair pop up over the top of the ladder I turn away and suddenly find my nails very interesting. They sit down on the other side of the room seeing as they were the last there.
"Welcome my children! In this room, you shall explore the art of Divination. We will discover if you possess",an eccentric woman with glasses which make her eyes look extremely large tells us. I can only assume she is Professor Trelawney.
"THE SIGHT!" she screams.
"Hello, I am Professor Trelawney. In this room, we will cast ourselves into the future, but you should know, One either possesses the sight, or not. It cannot be learned from a book" she say pacing the front of the room.
"What rubbish" Blaise mumbles to us. Draco nods and begins messing with the tassels on the tables. We don't really listen for the rest of the lesson, messing around and making jokes.  

Suddenly a high pitched squeal and a smash erupts from the front of the room. Our heads spin around and we see Trelawney place her hands on Harry's face.
"The Grim! It is an omen of death" she says before pulling away and slumping in her chair and sniffing some incense. I gasp and my eyes widen. I might be mad at Harry but I didn't want him to die.

Class comes to an abrupt end and I hastily say goodbye to Draco and Blaise and run after the trio. When I catch up to them, I tap Ron's shoulder. He turns around and immediately wraps me in a hug, lifting me off the floor a little due to him being taller than me.
"Oh god, I am so sorry. If I had known that talking about that would have made you upset I wouldn't have done it. Please forgive me. Forgive us" Ron whispered in my ear but loud enough for Hermione and Harry to hear.
"That's why I came over. I realised that I had overreacted and that you didn't deserve what I said to you" I tell them all as Ron puts me down and I hug Harry and Hermione.
"Lets move on and never talk  about this again?" Harrys asks and we all nod. 

"So Anna, what do you have next?" Hermione asks linking her arm with mine as we walk down the stairs.
"Care of Magical Creatures" I say smiling.
"So do we!" Ron says talking about him and Harry.
"And me" Hermione says as we reach the courtyard.
"How? Your taking so many classes? How many are you taking?" Ron says taking my hand as we walk down some slippy stone steps.
"I just have a few extra lessons not much really" Hermione says race towards Hagrid's hut.

"All righ' everybody, settle down now. No talking if ya don' mind" Hagrid says trying to control the talking class. Nobody listened so I decided to do something about it.
"Everybody shut the hell up!" I scream, making silence descend over the class. 
"Thank you Anna. Now, everyone, got an exciting lesson for ya today" Hagrid says as he slings some dead ferrets around his neck and begins walking off into the forest, gesturing for us to follow. I smile at the trio and walk next to Blaise and Draco.

"Sorry for running off guys, I just had to make up with them. There my best friends" I say whilst getting a playful glare off Blaise.
"Other than you two of course" I tell them making Draco smirk.
"Its fine. Have either of you figured out how to open this stupid book?" Draco says pulling out his CoMC book which had a black leather belt wrapped and fastened around it.
"Nope" Blaise says pulling out his book that also has a leather black belt with a silver buckle fastened around it.
"Me neither. We will have to ask Hagrid" I say taking out my book with its clear belt with black spikes fastened around it. They grumble something to each other that I don't quite catch. 

We arrive at a clearing in the forest.
"Alrigh' open your books to page 365" Hagrid asks.
"And how exactly do we do that?" Draco asks as the class gestures to our bound books.
"Ya stroke the spines o' course" Hagrid tells us.
"Of course" Blaise says sarcastically as we all remove the things keeping our books from not attacking us and stroke their spines. Neville doesn't quite manage to in time and is tackled to the floor by his book.
"Don't be such a wimp Longbottom" Draco tells the struggling boy before I elbow him in the ribs. "Don't be nasty Draco" I tell him as the boys join me at the stone wall where we dump our robes and bags.

"I think their funny" I overhear Hermione tell Harry and Ron.
"Oh yes. Terribly funny, really witty. God this place has gone to the dogs. Wait 'till my father hears they have this oaf teaching classes" Draco says slinging his arm around my shoulders as Crabbe and Goyle join us at the wall. I shoot the trio an apologetic look as Goyle laughs at Malfoy.

"Shut up, Malfoy" Harry says taking the bait.
"Ooooh" Draco, Blaise, Crabbe and Goyle say, smirking at each other. I stand there uncomfortable, not wanting to get it in the middle of a fight between my two best friends.  Draco takes off his bag and drops it into Crabbe's hands. He smirks again before grabbing my hand and strutting towards Harry, dragging me with him. He gets right in his face before beginning to look scared. That wasn't like Draco.

"D-d-dementor!" He says pointing behind Harry's head making everybody spin around. He quickly pulls me back and grabs the hood of my robes, putting it over my head before doing his own. When they turn back around, realising there isn't a dementor all the boys begin making dementor noises at them and waving their hands around. Hermione grabs Harry and turns him around, not before pulling a face at us.

Still editing older chapters of this book. I am not as happy with them as the more recent ones. I hope your still enjoying them though!
