The view was amazing. Flying over the top of the forest was breathtaking.. I could see everything. The whole castle was in view and the land around it. I saw everything with more beauty.. I realised how much I had been taking it all for granted. This place.. my home.

We flew over the forest and above the sea. The fresh scent of the water filled my nose. Buckbeak lowered slowly towards the water and graciously dipped in a foot. His claws dragged through the water, creating a small wave behind us. I let the tight grip I had on Buckbeak go and lifted my arms up in the air. This is something.. this feeling. The happiness, the freedom. All of it! This is definitely up there with the feeling of being at Hogwarts for the first time. Not first but a close second.

"Wooo!" I yelled, freely. I could feel my cheeks hurting from smiling, I loved this whole experience!

Suddenly, Buckbeak lifted up and before I fell off, I grabbed back onto him. We flew back over to the forest and landed gracefully onto the ground.

"Well done, y/n! That's how ya do it kids," Hagrid laughed, happily.

"Teachers pet," Hunter scowled.

Hunter Fawley, my arch enemy. Think of Harry and Draco and then times it by 10. That's what Hunter and I are like. Ever since my first day at Hogwarts, Hunter has teased, mocked and bullied me. Probably because he is part of a rich, pureblood family and thinks he is way better than everyone else. He's sort of like Draco, except worse and with pitch black hair. Every so often he will try to flirt with me, which angers me, but also confuses me alot! So far I've managed to avoid him since getting to Hogwarts this year, but clearly that's ended now he's in my class.

"Shut it, Fawley!" Fred scowled at the 6 foot boy.

"Look y/n, you've got yourself a little boyfriend," Hunter continued to tease. Hagrid helped me off Buckbeak.

Before I could reply, Fred did for me, "I said shut it.". Fred looked down at Hunter, anger in his eyes.

"Or what?" Hunter's evil smirk plastered across his smug face. He then looked at me, "You could do so much better than a Weasley,". He spoke their name with disgust, scrunching up his face as he did so.

"What? Like you?" I scoffed, sarcastically.

"Yeah actually, like me. Unlike those red headed disgraces, I have money and an actual home," he spoke as he made his way over to me. This was too far. Hunter was being a dick.

Beside me, I felt Buckbeak straighten up. He was being protective, wary of Hunter. "I dare you to take another step closer,". He wouldn't.. not with Buckbeak by my side.

"What did you just say?" Fred yelled, squaring up to Hunter.

"Yeah, I don't think I heard you properly," George was now beside Fred, just as angry. Both boys were stood in front of me but a gap in between them so I could see Hunter.

"Their home will always be more of a home than yours! I pity you, having to live in such a huge house with nobody to love you!" I growled. What I said is no surprise, everyone knows that Hunter's parents barely speak to him; his parents are always busy with work and even when they are with him, they just boss him around and treat him more like a robot.

What I said isn't something I would usually say but he hit me where it hurt. If you attack the Weasley's, you attack me and the people I love.

"You dirty little half breed! Watch what I am going to d-" before Hunter could finish his sentence, Fred punched him.

"FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT" everyone chanted as they circled around the two fighting boys.

I ran over to them, "Fred! Stop!". George was trying to pull Fred away as Hagrid came running over. Hagrid began to pull Hunter away but it wasn't much help. I didn't want to be that person but I launched myself in between the fight. I grabbed Fred's shoulders and pushed him back.

He began to push me away quite harshly, probably thinking I was Hunter or one of Hunter's friends. I stumbled back, Lee catching me so I didn't land with my butt on the ground. "Thanks Lee," I regained my balance and half smiled at Lee.

Once Fred had realised what he did, his face softened. Hunter had now been dragged away with a bloody nose and a black eye whereas Fred only had a scratch on his cheek, which I'm guessing is from Hunters rings. Fred rushed over to me.

Buckbeak didn't seem to like this and stood between me and Fred. He growled at Fred. "So smart of you brother," George grinned at Fred.

"Shut up!" I heard him snap back.

"It's okay Buckbeak, he didn't mean to. He would never hurt me intentionally," I stroked his feathers and he soon calmed down. Buckbeak stood a little behind me and Fred came back over, this time cautiously.

"Are you hurt? Did you get hit?" Fred asked, placing his hands on my shoulders. He looked me over, inspecting my whole body.

"No, Freddie. I'm fine, I was only pushed.. that's all," I replied, trying to calm him.

He looked at me, his auburn eyes glistening in the sun, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I thought you were.. well. I thought you weren't you." he told me.

"It's okay, Freddie. It's not a big deal," I half giggled, trying to show him how unbothered I was.

I wasn't lying, it didn't really bother me. Well, the push didn't, but seeing the anger in his face when he thought I was someone else did make me feel uneasy. But like he said, he didn't know it was me.

"You on the other hand.." I gestured to his cheek.

"You should see the other guy," he chuckled, finally himself again.

"Right! Class dismissed!" Hagrid yelled. He also gave Fred and Hunter a detention.

We made it back to the castle, Fred's face was still bleeding a little. "Fred, let's just go to the hospital wing. She can heal you in the snap of a finger," I begged.

"No. It's just a silly, little cut." he shrugged it off. I looked at George and Lee for help but they just shrugged too.

"You won't be saying that when the 'silly, little cut' gets infected and your face falls off!"

"My face won't fall off," he sighed, smirking at my comment.

"Oh come on Fredward! If you won't go to Madam Pomfrey then at least let me clean it up for you," I pleaded. I didn't want him to walk around with an open cut, not matter how big or small it was.

He looked at me, still wanting to say no until.. I pushed my bottom lip out and pouted, giving him the 'puppy eyes'. "Okay! Okay! fine." he gave in and I jumped up.

"My first aid kit is in my dorm so we'll have to go get it." I told him.

"You have a first aid kit?" Lee questioned.

"Yup, my aunt makes me bring one every year,"

"Come on then weasel!" I started walking in the direction of the Gryffindor common room.

"We'll catch up with you guys later," Fred told George and Lee who were now heading off to their next class, Divination.

Fred and I had Divination too but we had a reason to be late. Plus, our teacher is Miss Trelawney. I doubt she would care if we were late or not.
