Please keep in mind that basically nothing about this chapter will be like the books/movies.

"Everything..?" El quivered

"Everything." Lee answered

"Obliviate." Fred pointed his wand toward the pair of boys. They froze for a moment then started to act confused.

"George, I'm not sure about you, but I do not remember how we ended up here... on our dorm floor, on top of each other, with our two other best friends standing over there. Do you?"
"Not at all." George stood up, raised his eyebrow at Elodie and Fred, and walked over to his part of the room. Lee did the same.

"Thank me later, gorgeous." Fred winked

Elodie smiled, and rolled her eyes as she left their dorm, and headed to her own.

She was greeted with 3 sets of glowing eyes staring blankly at her.
The room was pitch black as the girls must have been sleeping before.

"And where have you been?" Alicia questioned
"Tell us everything." Angelina sat up on her bed, sounding very eager to hear the story.

"No." El smiled to herself.
"We'll pry it out of you eventually. Goodnight girls." Katie settled everyone back down, and they all headed to sleep.

It was an average Saturday in Hogwarts.
By 11, over half of the school had left to go to Hogsmeade.
This was including Elodie's dorm-mates.

She got showered, dressed, brushed her teeth and hair, and went straight to the boys' dorm room. As she knew that they would still be fast asleep.

"Rise and shine. It's a beautiful Saturday. Get up now or I'll start pouring water on each of you." El walked into the room, opening the curtains.

She grabbed a pillow off of the side of George's bed, and smacked it on his face.

"Up!"

Each of the boys tossed and turned. Fred put a pillow over his head to block out the noise.

She headed to their en-suite, grabbed a bucket, turned the shower on, filled the bucket up, and brought it back to the bedroom.

Lee and George were up and getting dressed, whilst Fred was still in bed, with the pillow over his face.

Lee and George turned around to witness what was about to happen.

"You do realise that Fred threw up in that last week?" Lee whispered

"As long as it's been cleaned since then, it'll be fine."

George and Lee looked at each other with worried faces. Acting like they had not washed it. Lovely.

She poured the entire contents of the bucket, all over Fred's body.
Keep in mind this water was not warm in the slightest.

Fred winced and fell on the floor. Giggles erupted from his other best friend and twin brother.

"Fuck you." Fred muttered.

He grabbed his wand and whispered a drying charm and pointed it towards his bed.

Fred showered, and then got ready.

The group was walking towards The Three Broomsticks in their winter attire.

They quickly noticed that a few familiar faces were inside. These people being Ginny and Hermione, and Draco with an unknown girl, who had a beautiful shade of strawberry blonde   hair, and slightly freckled skin.

They walked inside and sat with Ginny and Hermione.

"Who's that?" El asked the girls, pointing towards Draco and his 'unknown girl'
"Emaline Hawthorn. Draco's rumoured girlfriend."
"Oh..?! Good for them I guess." El replied in confusion

Elodie walked up to the counter, to ask for 4 butter beers. She was then joined by Emaline, asking for 2.

"Hey! I'm Emaline Hawthorn," She held her hand out.
"I've seen you around school before but I don't think we've ever spoke." She continued.

"I'm Elodie Potter." Elodie smiled, and shook her hand,
"It's lovely to meet you Emaline. I heard you're dating Draco? Is that correct?" Elodie added

"I am, indeed!"
"You seem like a lovely girl and I would hate to see you get hurt from him."
"He's genuinely a lovely person. People just need to give him more time to open up." Emaline smiled comfortingly.

"Hey, why don't you join us for a party we're having in the Gryffindor common room next Saturday? We would love to see you there! Bring him along too if you'd like?" Elodie pointed towards Draco, who was fiddling with his fingers.
"I mean, if you're certain then I'd love to! I'll see you around Elodie. Oh, and good luck in the first task. You'll do great." Emaline nudged her, then got handed her two drinks, and headed back to her two seated table shared with Draco.

Soon after, Elodie received hers on a tray and walked back to her table.

"So... what's she like? Is she anything like Draco?" George asked
"Not at all. She's lovely. Infact, I invited her to the party next week. She's bringing Draco."
"And why in Merlin's name would you do that?" Hermione asked, sounding shocked
"Maybe it'd give Draco a chance to redeem himself. She assured me that he's lovely 'once he opens up'." Elodie repeated Emaline's previous words.




Sorry that this chapter was slightly shorter. If you're wondering, Emaline is a character based on one of my good in real life' friends.
I thought that it would be nice to have a kind Slytherin characters, as there's no one seen as nice in Slytherin other than Slughorn and Regulus.
