Chapter 1 - Can You Feel The Love?

What happened in the last chapter?

It was the prologue. Stuff you if you didn't read it.

Please Note: Sorry if this chapter is damaging to Harry Potter's ego. I

am simply telling you what a girl I know acts and talks like.

Also: I do not own Harry Potter. Neither did I create it. I don't know

J.K. Rowling in any way. So don't go and start sending me weird

e-mails telling me that you want to know about the newest book.

Chapter 1 - Can You Feel The Love?

Dumbledore peered down at the eight students before him. These students had

come from Australia, and had come on an exchange-student program. They had

been detected with wizards blood, and were know expected to stop their muggle

education, and begin with the one of the wizard.

"Welcome to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!" he said with a

smile. The girls beamed back. Except for one, who looked merely bored and

decided to check her nails, covered in black nail polish. "I hope you find it

comfortable here, and for the rest of your years here."

"Thanks." they replied back. Dumbledore pulled out a sheet from his already

cluttered table.

"Now," he said as he surveyed the sheet, "When I call your name, please sit on

the stool." The girls looked at each other and then eventually nodded.

"Linda DeGail." a tall girl in the crowd blinked. Again. Again.

"Bugger." she muttered and sat upon the stool. Dumbledore placed an old hat on

her head.

"Gryffindor!" it proclaimed after a little bit. Linda got up, smoothed her hair

down and then stood back with the crowd.

"Lara Fathersome." the girl with the black nail polish came forward. She also had

severly curly hair.

"Slytherin!" the hat shouted immediately. Then all of a sudden ... "Gryffindor!"

Lara went and stood with Linda, not even managing a smile throughout the entire

ordeal. (A/N: If you must know, Lara will probably start smiling after Chapter 4 or

something ...)

"Karla Feather." Dumbledore read.

"That's me!" the short little red head shouted and skipped her way towards the

stool. (A/N: Also ... Karla is happy. Always. And by always, I mean. Always.)

"Gryffindor!" the hat said after a few seconds. Karla jumped with happiness and

joined Linda and Lara.

"Elizabeth Fields." Dumbledore continued reading.

A girl with straight black hair walked towards the stool.

"Gryffindor!"

"Rachel Gilding."

"BOO YEA! I rock!" Rachel shouted, puffing out her head and fixing up her hair

before proudly strutting towards the stool.

"Gryffindor!" the hat yelled.

"Unfortunately." Lara added audibly.

"Don't be mean!" Rachel said, her lip curling.

"Courtney Hall." Dumbledore, immediately shutting up both of them.

"SKATEBOARDS ROCK!" Courtney proclaimed, then plonked herself upon the

stool.

"Gryffindor!"

"Ashlee Hilary." Ashlee stepped forward with springs in her step. She did a little

ballet twirl, then finished with an arabesc before sitting on the stool.

"Gryffindor!" the hat said. Ashlee bounced off and twirled her way to the rest.

"Louise Houston." A girl with black hair walked forward and sat down.

"Gryffindor!" the hat said.

"Wonderful!" Dumbledore smiled, then clapped. He then placed the Hat back

into its position in his bookshelf. "Well, you're all in Gryffindor! I'll be leading

you to your tables now. In fact, I have to make a few announcements as well."

Dumbledore lead the way for the eight girls, who were all now more relaxed and

were talking more avidly. He opened the doors of the Great Hall and stepped in to

meet the sound of more than 1000 students chatting and laughing. When he

entered, everyone stopped talking, and watched as Dumbledore took his place in

the middle of the high table. He pointed the girls towards a table near the corner

with eight vacant places. They went and sat down, aware that hundreds of students

had their eyes on them.

"Please excuse my lateness." Dumbledore said with a small smile. "I would like

to introduce you to our newest students." Dumbledore looked towards the

Gryffindor table. "Their names are Linda DeGail, Lara Fathersome, Karla

Feathers, Elizabeth Fields, Courtney Hall, Rachel Gilding, Ashlee Hilary and

Louise Houston. They are now apart of Gryffindor, and I hope you will make them

feel welcome." There were murmurs, and then everyone settled down.

"Now, I know you all have been waiting for this - " Dumbledore smiled at all his

hungry students. "Dinner!"

Instantly, the empty plates and tureens filled themselves with food of all sorts.

"Food!" Lara said with enthusiasm, and dug into the roast chicken that was

infront of her.

"Is food all you ever think about?" Courtney asked with a little laugh.

"Like duh!" Lara rolled her eyes and then stuffed her mouth with the chicken.

"What else is there?" she asked with her mouth full of food. "Mmm! This is good!"

"EW!" Ashlee said, and chucked a napkin Lara's way. "Besides, there are other

things."

"Uhuh..." Louise added, cutting up her potato. "Like that guy over there."

"Which one?" Karla asked.

"The one with the slicked blonde hair and grey eyes wearing the green and

silver..."

"Him?" Elizabeth asked. She wrinkled her nose. "He looks kind of evil, Louise."

"You're point being?" Louise asked as she continued staring. Elizabeth rolled her

eyes and groaned.

"This guy looks better." she muttered, pointing her head towards a guy with black

hair, glasses and green hair.

"EW!" Lara, Courtney, Louise, Ashlee and Karla squealed.

"You went for the dork?" Rachel asked.

"He's not a dork!" Elizabeth stuttered.

"Yes he is, Lizzie." Linda said calmly.

"Is not!"

"Is too."

"Is not!"

"Is too."

"IS NOT!"

"Is too."

"IS NOT!!!"

"Is too."

"Argh!" all at once, Elizabeth was at Linda's neck.

"Dude!" Linda gasped. "This! Is! Not! Cool!"

Ashlee pulled out a wand. "What's a spell to stop this?"

"Stupefy?" Courtney said.

"Petrificus Totalus!" Karla suggested.

"Immobilus!" Rachel said.

"Stupefy is a stupid spell, Courtney!" Rachel said in an annoying tone.

"Immobilus is much better - considering that I thought it up!"

"Is not!"

"Is too!"

"Is not!"

"Is too!"

"Is not!"

"Is too!"

"Is not!"

"Is too!"

Lara rolled her eyes, and hit Elizabeth's head with a fork. Immediately, she let go

and Linda was finally able to start breathing again.

"Nicely done." Linda gasped to Lara.

"No probs." Lara replied and began eating some peas.

"Hi." a voice said. Lara turned around. "My name's Harry."

"Whatever." Lara replied.

"What's your name?"

"Lara."

"That's a pretty name."

"I think it's a crappy name."

"Then I think it's dumb."

"Are you insulting me?" Lara asked, with some evil in her eye.

"No!" Harry was quick to defend himself.

"Whatever." Lara went back to eating.

Harry reluctantly turned away.

"Did you know who that was?" Elizabeth asked.

"A dweeb with an eye problem who insulted my name." Lara replied

suggestively.

"THAT WAS HARRY!" Elizabeth replied in ecstasy.

"So?" Lara asked, stuffing her face with carrots.

"Don't you reckon that he's really hot?" Elizabeth asked, her eyes shining. Lara

snorted.

"He's a loser." she replied.

Elizabeth rolled her eyes.

"You don't understand!" she protested, her eyes growing dreamy yet again. "He's

wonderful! He's intelligent! He's funny! He's brave! He's cute!"

"He's not aware that you exist!" Lara added.

"What?" Elizabeth asked, her tone flat.

"Joke!" Lara replied. "Geez ... Liz, you need to take things less literally. It's

gonna come and bite you in the butt some day."

"Yeah?" Elizabeth said. "Well, I know something that's about to bite your butt

right now ..."

"Some people are so immature." Courtney tutted as she ate her fish.

"That's my lollipop!" Karla argued with Louise.

"You're not supposed to eat it now!" Louise retorted.

"So?" Karla replied indignantly. "I can do whatever I want!"

"Not now!" Louise replied.

"Can so!"

"Cannot!"

"Can so!"

"Cannot!"

"Can so!"

"Cannot!"

"Oh, the maturity." Rachel remarked, as she piled meat upon her plate.

"Isn't it fascinating that we have all been able to fall in love, become dangerously

sarcastic, gone back in our ageing and have made all these witty comments all

before dessert?" Linda added, now eating her lamb.

"Uhuh." Rachel replied.

"He's wonderfully talented!"

"He's about to go insane!"

"Look! Lollipops aren't meant for the dinner table!"

"This isn't a dinner table where people drink tea with their little finger crooked

out! This is a feast!"

Silence between Linda and Rachel.

"Immaturity will only make people stop developing mentally into the people that

they should be." Courtney said philosophically before crunching down her beans.

"Now everybody!" Dumbledore said, with his blue eyes sparkling. "Dessert!"

Instantly, the plates before everyone were cleaned and in the giant dishes were ice

creams of every flavour, fondue, fresh fruit and even mint humbugs. There was

also plenty more to feed a large army. In this case, it was Hogwarts students and

teachers.

Courtney piled on icecream and fruit into her plate. Lara stopped arguing and

spooned bowls of fondue onto her plate and dipped her strawberries into it. Linda

got the icecream and poured fondue all over it. Rachel had a bit of everything,

Louise ate some humbugs and Karla started sucking on her lollipop again.

Elizabeth had fondue on her plate, and was dipping her finger in it and then

sucking her finger, staring at Harry, who was laughing with a bushy haired girl and

a carrot top coloured hair guy.

Finally, dinner and dessert was over, and everyone was instructed to their

common rooms. It was chaos with everybody walking all over the place, trying to

get to their dormitories. The girls neared an oil portrait of an extremely fat lady.

"Password?" she asked, waving her pink fan that suited her pink dress.

"Um ..." Lara struggled.

"Lemon Novas." a voice behind her said. The portrait swung open. Lara stepped

in without a word of thanks to the person behind her - she didn't even bother

turning around to see who it was.

People started streaming into the common room. They plopped themselves down

onto the squashy arm chairs. Others headed for bed. Some went to the bathroom.

(A/N:*Snigger*) The girls plopped themselves in front of the fire on the carpet.

"I'm sleepy." Rachel said, as her eyelids drooped.

"So am I." Courtney said.

"Uhuh." Karla remarked.

"I'm going to bed." Linda said and got up. "Instead of talking about it."

"I'm coming as well." Lara followed her upstairs into the bedroom. When she

closed her eyes as she was sleepily walking up the stairs, she nearly knocked over

poor little Harry Potter, who was staring at her.

"Whoops, sorry." she said.

"That's OK." Harry replied. Then he took a chance. "That's OK, Lara."

"Uhuh." Lara slammed the door. Harry began feeling quietly pleased with

himself, until - "WHAT DID YOU SAY?"

"Um ..." Harry was dumbfounded. "Lara?"

"Look you little freak!" Lara shouted. "I don't know you and probably will never

want to know you. So why don't we keep the personal stuff to a nothing?"

"What do you mean by 'personal stuff'?" Harry was almost too afraid to ask.

"Stuff like names. Stuff like smiling, nodding or talking to each other in the

corridors and class. Stuff like talking to each other ever in voluntary situations.

Which means, I will cut off communication lines between us from now!" Lara

slammed the door, leaving poor Harry looking sadly at the wood separating the

both of them. He sighed, then went into his dormitory.

Five minutes later, there was a knock on the door. Linda opened it to find Rachel,

Courtney, Karla, Louise and Elizabeth outside.

"Hi." she said.

"Shut." Courtney said.

"Up." Karla added.

"Sleepy." Louise concluded.

Elizabeth jumped into her bed without saying anything and not even changing

into her pyjamas.

"Oi!" all of a sudden. It was Louise.

"That's my pillow!" Courtney interrupted.

"No!" Rachel added. "That's my pillow!"

"HEY!" Elizabeth yelled. "GET OFF MY PILLOW!"

"Who ever said that it was yours?" Louise shouted.

All of a sudden, Courtney, Karla, Elizabeth and Louise were at each other's necks,

trying to get the pillow. They were each holding a corner of it, and tugging it at

different directions.

"Get off!"

"You get off!"

"Both of you get off!"

"Who said you could interrupt?"

"Who said that you could?"

"You suck!"

"No! You suck!"

Linda looked towards Lara. "Can you feel the love?"
