The Great Hall was filled with whispering students when Juliet and Harry walked in, side by side. It was impossible to tell who they were talking about more, hearing both their names being thrown around every new seconds. Juliet rolled her eyes as she looked to Harry, "You think they're talking about me or you?"
"Probably about how good you look, Juliet." Ginny spoke as she stood by the girls side, standing shorter then she did as she nodded to her outfit. Juliet did look good, she always looked relatively good. While she stuck with bright colors for her shirts, they'd often times be paired with a pair of dark, denim or leather, pants and a pair of some heels that had different designs.
"Probably so." Juliet agreed as she eyed the Hufflepuff table who was either giving her awkward smiles or talking about her, "I should head over there."
"I'll find your after." Ron said as he pushed into his toes slightly to kiss her forehead. While when she was flat footed he stood barley two inches above her, whenever Juliet wore her shoes she once again was above him. He had a love hate relationship with her many pairs of shoes, he liked the way she walked in them and the sound they made of the floor, but he often times enjoyed being taller then her.
Juliet left Ron with a steamy kiss on the mouth, a way of proving herself to the Great Hall somehow. She let her shoes click on the floor as she passed the Ravenclaw table, giving Cho a small smile before looking away. She wanted so desperately to talk to her but just couldn't find the right words. She then passed Gryffindor, offering the twins a wink as they returned it. Slytherin came up quick, not realizing she was walking rather quickly, the six Slytherins that stared at her consisted of Crable, Goyle, Pansy, Theodore, Blaise, and finally Draco.
Juliet offered them a half smile, not expecting one back but got one from Theodore and Blaise, a nod from Draco while Pansy stared at her a moment, not in the rude way she usually did, more so in a way of saying hello without actually saying it and putting her ego aside. Juliet had written to Pansy, Blaise, and Draco over the summer to thank the three for letting her sit with them the day Dumbledore spoke about Cedric considering her hadn't gotten the chance to the day of. Draco didn't write her back, nor did Blaise, but Pansy owled her back and told her it wasn't a problem.
Juliet kinda wanted to write her again but decided against it.
"Hey Juliet." Hannah, Juliets roommate said as she approached the table, a weary look on her face, "We didn't know if you'd be back this year."
"Well..." Juliet trailed off with a shrug of her shoulders, "Here I am."
"Um, you look great." Hannah complemented her as she moved over to Juliet could take a seat, "A few of us owled you over the summer, did you not revive them?"
"I stayed with a friend in Edinburgh most of the summer, sorry about that." Juliet said with a minor clear of her throat. It felt weird sitting here, without Cedric, with people she wasn't even very close with. He was all she had in Hufflepuff, everyone else thought she was the weird girl who predicted her fathers death.
