I didn't sleep at all that night neither did Draco by the look of his under eyes. When we arrived at the grand hall the next morning I went straight to the Gryffindor table. "Hermione!" I shouted knowing that all my worries were for nothing. She said "Lylah!" in a teasing way. "Where were you last night? Did you hear about the trolls?" I asked. "Yeah, I was with the troll. Harry and Ron saved my life." She said turning red and in a hushed tone."Hermione! Are you ok?" I said sitting down. "Yeah I'm fine but I have detention in a bit." said Hermione, still red.

I had to go back to the slytherin table but I was relieved that she was ok. I sat down in my usual seat and within 5 minutes Draco swung his head back on to my shoulder, he fell asleep.  Draco and I went  into the library to play wizard's chess (he was going to teach me because I've never played). When we got there Justin Finch-Fletchley (a hufflepuff) told us that Harry Potter made the quidditch team! I was happy for Harry but Draco left me in the library, it's fine because I needed to get somebook for the Astronomy homework I forgot to do yesterday.   
                                   
I went outside for a little bit and saw Ron, Harry and Hermione going to the gate keepers house. I went to the edge of the lake and sat playing with the flowers and watching my reflexion in the water.

"You know there are merpeople in that water" said none other than Fred. "Yeah they're ruthless!" George agreed. What I meant to say was hello, would you like to sit? But what came out was, "Did you guys make the porridge explode?" "Depends, who's asking..... Only joking, after our prank war last year, we had to get them back!" Fred said. (George is slightly taller than Fred. Fred also has a mole on his neck.) "That was cool!" I said not taking my eyes off the water. "What are you doing?" George said sitting next to Fred. "I don't really know." I said being honest. "Well do you want to help us?" They both said at the same time. "Sure."  We got up and they led me to a secret passageway.

They gave me some candy. "Slip it into the third years robes, so they don't suspect you and we win the prank wars. It's tongue growing toffee!" said George excitedly. "Don't make it obvious though" Fred replied almost immediately. "It won't hurt them right?" I say kind of nervous in a good way. "Of course not, it will only shock them a bit!" said Fred thrilled. Obediently I did as they asked. A few third years threw out the toffee saying "Fred and George!" but others ate it and their tongues were so long.

"Thank you Lylah!" They shouted at the same time smiling from ear to ear. I walked to the common rooms, there was none there so I headed to my dorm. Someone was screaming in their room so I decided to run in there(I don't really know why but I did). It was Millicent Bulstrode's dorm, she was watching a muggle movie! I asked her to teach me that charm, she didn't want to at first but she taught me anyway. I went to the Grand hall skipping because now I can watch Grey's Anatomy.  I sat in my usual seat next to Draco and he kept watching Harry, mesmerized by his every move.

I tried to talk to Draco but he was so concentrated on Harry he didn't hear me. "Go kiss him already!" I said teasing. He finally looked at me, blushing really hard. "Shut up!" he said, fighting a smile.

After dinner we went to our common rooms, I showed Draco Grey's Anatomy(I think he liked it because he didn't complain). He said he was going to go to bed after the 8th episode but he sounded off so after he left I went to the common room. Not even 10 minutes later Draco, Crabbe and Goyle tried to sneak out.

"Are You Mental!" I shout at Draco, he jumps. "Where Are You Going!" "I'm going..." Draco begins but stops mid-sentence thinking, "Where Are You Going!" I say I can't keep the frustration in. "I'm going to duel Harry!" He admits at last. "No, no your not!" I grab his arm and sit him on the couch. " Filch will find you and you'll lose the house cup for sure. Besides if Harry could beat some dark wizard when he was a year old he'll destroy you!" I shout. He thinks for a while but he doesn't try to leave after that.
