CHAPTER 1

Ariana Walker stared at the Hogwarts express. It was off to another year at Hogwarts. Another year of classes and homework and Quidditch. Another year without a boyfriend. She sighed and shook her head. She ran her fingers through her curly blonde hair and boarded the train. She searched for her friends Angelina and Alicia and found them in a compartment close to the end of the train.

"Hey Ariana," Angelina said as she walked in.

"Hey," she replied and took a place at the empty bench across from Angelina and Alicia.

"Good summer?" Alicia asked.

"Yeah it was ok," Ariana said. "Not like I did much."

"Ari," Angelina sighed. "You need to get out more."

"What good is that going to do me?" she asked. "I just want to get through the year and survive Quidditch with Oliver."

"Why are you so hard on yourself?" Alicia asked. "You are a pretty girl, you just have to believe that."

"I think you're crazy."

"Look this is going to be the year we get you a boyfriend. This is your year to fall in love," Angelina said. "Do you trust us?"

"Yes," she said.

"Ok, look let us give you a new look this weekend," Alicia said. "It won't take much to make you look pretty, because you already are." she added. "You have pretty blue eyes, a nice smile. And I really wish I had your figure."

"Oh come on," Ariana said. "You're crazy." she added as the compartment door slid open and Fred and George walked.

'We'll get another opinion," Angelina said and Fred walked over and kissed Angelina's lips and sat by her. George squeezed in by Alicia and gave her a kiss on the lips.

"Hey guys, we want your opinion on something and we want you to tell the truth," Alicia said.

"Alright," Fred and George said.

"Ariana doesn't believe she's pretty," Angelina said. "What do you think?"

"And you want us to tell the truth," Fred said and Angelina nodded.

"Well of course she's pretty," George said.

"She has gorgeous eyes," Fred said. "No one is more shocked than us that some guy hasn't grabbed you up," he added.

"What guy is going to grab me up?" she asked.

"What about Oliver?" Fred asked.

"Are you serious?" Ariana asked laughing. "Oliver wouldn't even know my name if I didn't play Quidditch." she added.

"That is not true," George said.

"It is true but it doesn't matter," Ariana sighed.

"Oh come on don't deny you think Oliver is hot," Alicia said.

"Well its not like I'm the only one," Ariana said. "He's not going to want me when he can have a much prettier girl."

"Don't talk about yourself like that," George said.

"Hey you know who does look even better this year than he did last year and who would be great for you?" Angelina said.

"Who?" Everyone asked.

"Cedric Diggory," Angelina said.

"What?" they all asked.

"Cedric Diggory and me that's even crazier than me and Oliver," Ariana said. "Oliver is in the same house as me and he barely notices me. There's no chance for me and Cedric."

"Hey don't say that you never know," Alicia said.
