So young, So damaged

Detention

April 1st, 1996
Juniper's POV

Today was April Fools, so I had to play around with some people. First, I have to prank the girls before we start our little game within the group.

Daphne and I woke up, we chatted a little bit on what we should do to Pansy and Tracey. We decided on switching their soaps will Frog Spawn soap from Zonko's Joke Shop.

The two of us got ready and waited for the other two to hop into the shower.

At first Pansy screamed and ran out into the dorm with her towel wrapped around. Next Tracey screamed and did the same, her curls dripping water onto the floor.

Daphne and I were cackling at the two as they looked at us with eye rolls.

While the two girls were getting ready, the four of us conspired against the boys, talking about who will do which jokes throughout the day.

On April Fools it was always boys against girls, the score since first year is 3 wins for the girls and 1 win for the boys.

We always won since Pansy had many tricks up her sleeve.

We were now walking to the dining hall for breakfast, all of us were suspicious and being careful of what each other might do.

Last night before curfew, I got to ask the house elves in the kitchen what they were planning on making for breakfast today. I overheard the Weasley twins a few months ago on how they put beetles in their older brothers soup, since we were having oatmeal today we were going to do just that.

We sat on our house benches, plopping foods onto our dishes.

The boys were chatting along and with the flick of my wand under the table I was able to hide beetles within their oats.

"This isn't a blueberry!" Blaise spat into a cloth napkin.

Gagging noises began to come out of Crabbe and Goyle, while Draco and Theo spat back into their bowls.

The girls and I peeked at each other and smirked with little giggles escaping out mouths.

"Shitty prank girls, think of better ones next time" Draco said as he was pouring more pumpkin juice into his cup to wash away the taste.

"Oh we're just getting started" Pansy laughed in her shrieking high voice.

The boys rolled their eyes and carefully ate for the rest of breakfast.

As breakfast ended the girls and I walked together for a while as the boys were lazily getting up from the seat and taking a few last bites.

We were just talking about our next prank.

"What the fuck is up with your hair?" Tracey asked me.

The girls looked at me as I was feeling my hair frizz up and tangle within ever second.

"T-Trace, your hair!" Pansy's shriek echoed through the halls.

Tracey felt her flowing tight curls turn into an afro that looked like it was picked out.

"Daph... you're a ginger—" I pointed out with terror in my eyes as her dirty blonde hair was different. "— and Pans your bangs look like they've been cut by a three year old"
