It was Sept. 1st and Emily Wood was getting ready for her final year at Hogwarts. She was excited to see her best friend Rose Weasley who was in Ravenclaw with her. She had gotten many letters from Rose over the summer, but Emily had to spend most of her summer touring with the quidditch team her dad now coached for. In one of the letters Rose had told her that while she was visiting her cousin Albus she had finally gotten together with Scorpius Malfoy, much to the displeasure of her father. But Emily on the other hand could not be more excited to hear that two of her best friends had gotten together.

This would however make things a little awkward for Emily and Albus. Scorpius and Albus had become best friends since Albus was sorted into Slytherin during their first year. It was halfway through the first year that Rose finally introduced Emily to Albus and on that very day Scorpius fell in love with the red headed cousin of Albus. For the first couple of years Rose was really irritated with the blonde but during their fifth year the four of them were starting to become close friends. During their sixth year Rose finally admitted to having a thing for Scorpius while Emily revealed her crush on Albus. But the very next day Albus had gotten himself a girlfriend.

So why would seeing Albus be awkward, well in the same letter Rose had told Emily that during the summer Albus had broken up with his girlfriend. She had said in the letter that Albus wouldn't tell her why but him and Scorpius seemed to share a glance with each other. Emily couldn't wait to spend time with her best friend and have so girl talk, especially since she spent most of her summer with guys all except for her mother. And although she loved her mother, this was not something she wanted to discuss with her.

Finally getting herself out of bed, Emily combed through her very long and curly hair, Rose had once said that it reminded her of her mother's hair. She put on some light makeup before changing into a plain T-shirt and jeans. Emily had never really been one to primp herself up.

"Emily you have a guest" yelled her mother from downstairs. Emily quickly made her way downstairs wondering who could be visiting her on such a busy morning.

"Emily!"

"Rose!" The two best friends embraced in a hug. "I missed you so much"

"Me too!"

"But what are you doing here? You do know that it's the first day of school?"

"Yeah I talked to my parents and yours, and they all said that I could head over to King's Station with you guys, plus I have to get you ready to see Albus" Rose whispered the last part in Emily's ear so only she could hear. And she had gotten the desired outcome as she saw the blush creep up her best friends face.

"What are you talking about, I think I happen to look fine."

"Yeah well fine won't do this time, Albus is finally single again and we are going to make he see what his missed out on for that year of not dating you."

Rose quickly rushed her best friend back up stairs to give her look a bit of a makeover.

"Just don't go too overboard Rose, we are going to be on a train for hours and I don't want to feel uncomfortable." Emily said as she saw the super short mini skirt Rose had pulled out of her closet for her to wear, and for the record it was Rose that had bought her the skirt in the first place.

"Oh come on Emily you have to show some sex appeal."

"As long as I can wear tights under it" Emily sighed and Rose gleefully searched for a pair of tights to go with the floral mini skirt.

Rose had finally decided on a pair of burgundy tights that matched the rose print in the floral mini, a tight black sweater that was actually very soft and comfortable. Rose had also picked out a cute pair of nude booties to tie to the outfit, but much to her displeasure Emily had decided to wear a pair of dark red high top converse instead.

"Now for the make-up"

"Hey I never said anything about makeup, besides it's almost time to leave."

"It will only take a second" Rose had added a small cat eye to Emily's eyeliner and switched out her chapstick for a dark burgundy lipstick. "There I told you it would only take a second."

Emily looked in the mirror and couldn't argue that it did make her look cuter.

"Come on we are going to be late" Rose said as she headed downstairs to get her trunk as Emily just rolled her eyes.

"This is going to be a long year…"
