Ch 1

It was about 9:30 p.m. and Phil Lester was studying in the library. He has a test on Friday about the origin of the mer-people. Engrossed in his book, he didn't notice another Hufflepuff student walk up to the table he was sitting at. His quietude was interrupted though when the Hufflepuff took the book out of his hands.

"Hello?" The boy said.

"Ah!" Phil said, startled.

"What?" the boy said in confusion. Phil looked at him. He was wearing a Hufflepuff scarf even though it wasn't hot.

"You scared me!" he replied.

"Oh. Well I'm really sorry since I've been trying to get your attention the last five minutes" scarf boy rolled his eyes, sarcasm evident in his voice. Phil just looked.

"My name is Dan by the way." Dan looked at Phil expectantly. Phil still just looked. Dan had brown eyes that looked like chocolate. His hair was messy, and looked he just woke up. Which he probably just had. He was wearing baggy pastel green pajama pants and a black shirt.

"Phil" he replied.

"Well Phil?" Dan just stared.

"Oh, yeah. Sure" He was drawn back to the present.

"Follow me." Dan started walking off.

"Well wait for me!" Phil said getting up quickly. Dan lead him to a shelf with books all about the plants in the wizarding world. Herbology was his favourite class.

Dan pointed to a book quite high up.

"Can you get that for me?" He asked.

"Oh um sure" Phil stretched his arm and caught the edge of the book. He pulled it off. It was a book about silverweed.

"Oh! I love silverweed. Its used in potions." Phil said excitedly.

"How do you know that?" Dan asked, incredulous.

"Herbology is my favourite class." He answered, blushing.

"Oh ok. Well thanks." Dan said.

"Hey, I've never seen you around before. How come?" He asked Dan before he walked off.

"Um. Well I have no um friends so I um try to stay out of the way." Dan said turning crimson.

"You should of said something! You could of hung out with us!" he said to Dan.

"Well you have lots of friends and I didn't want to interrupt" Dan muttered the blush not leaving his cheeks.

"I have to go to bed now, but if you ever feel lonely come hang out with my friends and I, ok?" Phil demanded.

"Uh, ok" Dan said quickly, already turning around.

As he left to go to his bed, Phil had the image of Dan and his chocolate brown eyes plastered in his head.

"Get up or I will drag you to breakfast naked!" someone yelled at him.

"Mmmmm, mwhat?" Phil murmured still half asleep.

"I said get up idiot!" his best friend Chris yelled at him.

"What time is it?" Phil asked sitting up.

"Um, if you don't get up right now, it will be missing breakfast time! So hurry up I'm hungry! Chris yelled impatiently.

Phil quickly got dressed in his school robes and headed of to breakfast with a very disgruntled Chris. They got to the Great Hall and their friend, Charlotte came running up.

"There you are! I was starting to get worried." she cried.

"Phil's fault" Chris said going to sit down.

Phil sighed and he said, "Chris stop being so grumpy."

"Ugh fine" He said and grinned. Chris was one of those guys who couldn't stay mad for very long.

Phil looked around the hall and his eyes landed on Dan, who was sitting by him self at the end of the table. Phil had forgotten all about him until now. At that moment Dan happened to look up and see Phil looking. Phil grinned. He looked down nervously. Phil was about to get up to go over, but he was interrupted by the post owls. He got his usual letter from his parents, asking him how he was and how classes were going. He looked over at Dan and saw him looking around hopefully. When nothing landed in front of him, he looked down in dejection. Phil had an idea. He jumped up.

"Phil? What's wrong?" Charlotte asked.

"I need a pen. Quickly" he replied.

"Uh, here." Chris shoved it in his hands.

Phil quickly wrote a letter to Dan.

To Dan,

I saw you looking around, but you got nothing. So here! SURPRISE! Have a fabulous day! You'll find a friend soon. Very soon in fact.

from,

Anonymous.

He tied it to his bird, Pete's, leg and sent him off Dan's direction. He saw Dan look up, surprised when Pete landed in front of him. Dan wrote something on a piece of paper, and tied it to the birds leg. He picked up his fork and followed Pete with his eyes.

"When Pete lands, send him to Dumbledore. He'll know what to do." Phil got up and left the Great Hall quickly before Dan could see who Pete landed in front of.
