As I carried my plate to my table Gilbert, walked by me.

Gilbert-"Opps." He dropped some food on my shoe,on purpose.

Jeannette-"Oi! What the hell was that for!?"

Gilbert-"I don't know what you mean."

Jeannette-"Oops!" I dropped some back on his shoe.

Gilbert-"Oh really?"

Jeannette-"Yeah..really." He mashed potatoes on my head. I stood there and stared at him, then smiled. "Wow! Thanks, but you can't have mashed potatoes without the gravy." His face went blank. I held up my tray and watched the gravy pour onto his head as his jaw practically fell to the floor. He threw some more food at me and I got him back. We kept going back and forth and by the time we were covered in food we were yelled at.

Headmistress-"Miss. Weasley! Mr.Malfoy what is going on!?" We looked at each other and back at her.

Jeannette-"He started it."

Headmistress-"Yes well, it's very inappropriate to do such a thing. Ten points will be taken from each of your houses." I sighed. "Detention with Professor Longbottom during dinner. Now, go get cleaned up."

Jeannette-"Yes ma'am." My friends looked at me but I just walked out and got changed. After lunch, we walked into transfiguration and I took my seat next to Maggie. She looked at me, confused.

Jeannette-"I don't even want to talk about it."

Maggie-"Later." I rolled my eyes. Beau sat at the table next to me. I smiled at him and he smiled back.

Professor Longbottom-"Alright today we are working on a small assignment, turning your quill into a duplicate of your wand however, it does not serve the same properties so don't think you can get away with using it." He did a demonstration and then returned to his desk. "This should be finished at the end of class so you may pick a partner." Everyone quickly joined together but Beau sat there alone. He seemed very used to the fact that no one chose him..but it made me sad. I raised my hand.

Jeannette-"Excuse me, Professor? Would It be alright if Beau joined us?" He looked at Beau sitting alone and smiled.

Professor Longbottom-"Yes of course, go ahead" Beau picked up his books and walked over to us.

Jeannette-"Hey, you having a good day so far?"

Beau-"Yeah it's alright..you?"

Jeannette-"Well for me I don't really know."

Maggie-"As for me, I've had better days."

Beau-"I saw what happened in lunch.."

Jeannette-"Not my proudest moment."

Beau-"In my opinion, Good job. Malfoy deserved it." We all laughed and then worked on the assignment. When we finished we all just chatted quietly.

Jeannette-"Would you like to hang out with us sometime Beau?"

Beau-"Yeah sure, that'd be brilliant."

Maggie-"Great!"

Professor Longbottom-"Okay everyone please take their seats." We sat for the rest of the class. The day went on and I couldn't stop thinking about detention. I'd rather slay a dragon than be put into a room with him...alone.

I walked into detention with my plate of food and had a seat. I picked at the food and nibbled on some of it, I wasn't that hungry. I still smelled like lunch. Gilbert walked in and I watched him take a seat. I pushed my plate away from me and slumped over In my chair.
