Set in Harry Potter and the… what age would make this legal? Order of the Phoenix?
Anyway… this is dedicated to Meghan because Niamh is getting one with Jasper in my next fanfic… :D
(Note to Meghan, I know how you feel about Ginny being your friend, but you've got Luna too!!)

(Author notes)
My point of view…
I was sitting at the Ravenclaw table at breakfast time, talking to Luna. Ginny usually came over to us from the Gryffindor table and Meghan from the Slytherin, but neither of them were there yet. We were discussing last night DA meeting when I noticed Ginny walking over to us.
"Hey" said Luna, dreamily as always.
"Hi guys" Ginny replied, cheerfully.
"Where have you been, we've been waiting for 20mins!" I said, not really angry.
"I was talking to Michael (Corner). So, catch me up in the conversation!"
Just then, Meghan walked in.
"Hey, we were just wandering where you were!" I said.
"No we weren't," said Luna, in that unfortunate gift of always telling the uncomfortable truth. "We were talking about last nights DA meeting…"
But she was silenced by the deadly look I gave her. Thankfully, Meghan didn't notice Luna 'Slip of the tongue'. The last thing we needed was a Slytherin knowing about the D.A. meetings. Even if she was our friend, she was still pretty close to some of the Inquisitorial squad. In fact, Meghan wasn't paying attention to us at all, but was sitting not touching her food looking pensive.
"What's wrong, Meghan?" I asked, concerned.
"Nothing," she said, hurriedly.
"Come on, you can tell us. We're your best friends" said Ginny, curiously.
"Well…"
"Spit it out" I said.
"A couple of weeks ago, I was staying up late doing my Transfiguration homework…" she said, slowly.
"There's a shock," I said, genially surprised. "You never do your homework's."
"That's the point," she said. "Old Minnie said that if I 'fail to hand in another homework', she'll put my in detention for 3 months and dock 50 points from Slytherin."
"Back to the point…" prompted Luna.
"Well, it took me ages because it was soooo hard and it got really late without me realising. Soon I was the only one left in the common room, apart from Malfoy. He was doing the same bloody essay."
"Ohhhhh!!! Meghan and Draco, sitting in a tree, doing something they shouldn't be!!" I giggled.
"Shush!" Luna whispered at me. "Stop interrupting"
"We weren't in a tree…" Meghan said, a little slyly.
We sat there in shock.
"You're joking!" Ginny said, with a hint of jealousy.
"No, I'm not!" she replied, snickering at the looks on our faces.
Is there more to come? Is Meghan hiding more? Find out in the next chapter!
