Lisa was having a bad day. Scratch that. The worst freaking day in the whole world, or at least, Hogwarts.
She slept in because she'd stayed up late working on an essay for Transfiguration. Once she crawled out of bed and got dressed she put her shoes on the wrong feet because she was so tired and spent ten minutes trying to figure out why they felt so wrong, making her miss breakfast.
She walked into her first class and realized she had forgotten the essay upstairs, ran all the way back up to the tower, found it in her textbook that was already in her bag, ran all the way back down to her Transfiguration class, and got five points taken away from Gryffindor and a detention for being late.
She fell asleep in potions class, singed the sleeve of her favorite robes and possibly, maybe, sort of accidentally threw a book at that stupid Slytherin making fun of Katie Greening, because he was going to make her cry and the last time that happened it took all of the fifth year Gryffindor girls to quiet her down again. Only the book missed and landed in that idiot Nott's potion making it explode, drenching the entire class in his potion that was supposed to remove warts, but it was really crappy so it GAVE everyone massive green boils, sending the entire class to the Hospital wing during lunch, making all the students mad at her and made her stomach hate her even more.
Care of Magical Creatures had gone no better and she had ended up tripping into a barrel full of flobberworms which she thinks are the most disgusting creatures ever, even worse than trolls.
She was so fidgety and shaky from the flobberworm diving and lack of food, Professor Binns sent her out of the class room and told her to go do something else because she clearly didn't want to be here and she was just distracting the class. She was really upset about this because History of Magic was her favorite class. And to top it all off she got another detention and a lecture from Professor Carlton when he caught her out of class and wouldn't believe that Professor Binns would actually notice that someone didn't want to be in his class.
So you can definitely say that she was royally pissed when she finally got down to dinner. She sat down on the bench and heard a humongous fart. I'm talking like elephant trumpet loud. She'd just sat on a Weasly Whoopee Cushion, that she suspected had a Sonorous charm added on to it. For a few second she wasn't sure whether she wanted to cry hysterically or find whoever did this too her and possible cause some minor injuries. She really was just about to cry when she heard that git, James Potter, laughing so hard he was practically crying. That made up her mind for her. She stalked over to him and poked him in the chest.
"And just what is so funny?" She had a look on her face that would make any other guy pee his pants, but this was a Potter/Weasly boy, he was used to mean looks from women.
"That whoopee cushion was hilarious! The entire Great Hall heard that!"
She stared at him and gripped her wand so tight her hand started to shake.
"What's the matter?" He stupidly asked. "It's all in good fun!"
Lisa unleashed a bat bogey hex on him so scary it almost put Ginny's best to shame. James ran out of the hall screaming like a little girl.
Lisa took a deep breath to clear her head and turned on her heel to face Professor Longbottom.
"I'm assuming the erm- rather loud noise was caused by Mr. Potter?"
"Uhm, yes sir." She hung her head, in hindsight she did over react a little. "I'm sorry sir, it won't happen again, I've just had a REALLY bad day and he was just the last straw."
"Well, he is a bit...trying at times, yes. But see to it that it doesn't happen again Miss. Woodward."
"Yes sir."
"Alright then. Have a good dinner." He walked back up to the teacher's table.
She walked back to her seat sat down and FINALLY had something to eat.
A/N-I feel kind of bad for making her go through that...ah well she got rid of some of the anger out on poor James. That's what you get for annoying a girl when she's had a bad day :)
