CHAPTER 1

(HARRY, RON, and HERMIONE walk to the great hall and sit down at the Gryffindor table. OLIVER WOOD comes up and sits next to HERMIONE)

OLIVER: hey guys

HARRY hey wood, how's it going?

OLIVER: pretty good, have you guys heard about the new student?

HERMIONE: what?

OLIVER; yeah, apparently there's a new student

RON: when do they arrive?

OLIVER: tonight, I think. Dumbledore's suppose to be introducing her-

HERMIONE: her?

OLIVER: yeah, she's a girl

HARRY: I wonder what house she'll be in

RON: I don't care, as long as it's not Slythrin

HARRY: yeah, we really don't need another one of those idiots walking around

HERMIONE: Oliver, do you know what year she's going to be in?

OLIVER: 6th, same as us.

(HERMIONE smiled, she was about to say something else but was interrupted by DUMBLEDORE's booming voice.)

DUMBLEDORE: welcome students, tonight's feast will begin momentarily. Tonight we have a new student joining us.

(He points to a girl with medium length brown hair, with light pink streaks in it. She has blue eyes and is of average height.)

DUMBLEDORE: This is Peyton Gilmore, she is in 6th year, and we have already done the sorting hat ceremony. She is in Gryffindor.

(HERMIONE smiled. She looked at OLIVER, who seemed to be in a daze.)

DUMBLEDORE: Miss. Granger, will you please escort Miss. Gilmore tonight and show her around the castle, and help her get to her classes tomorrow.

HERMIONE: of course.

DUMBLEDORE: thank you.

(DUMBLEDORE points PEYTON to HERMIONE. She sits down next to her and OLIVER.)

HERMIONE: hi, I'm Hermione Granger, this is Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Oliver Wood.

HARRY/RON: hi

PEYTON: hello

(everyone begins to eat, OLIVER still seems to be in a daze, HARRY notices this.)

HARRY: hey, Oliver, what's up?

(no answer)

HARRY: Wood?

(still no answer)

HARRY: WOOD!

OLIVER: huh? What?

HARRY: are you feeling okay?

OLIVER: yeah, I'm fine. Why?

RON: he's been trying to get your attention for like a minute.

OLIVER: oh, really?

HARRY: yeah.

( HERMIONE and PEYTON chuckle a little, OLIVER gets really red in the face)

OLIVER: hey, I have some homework to do, I'll talk to you guys later

HARRY: okay,

RON: later

(OLIVER gets up and walks out)

HERMIONE: what was that all about?

HARRY: I don't know, we'll talk to him later

RON: yeah. So Peyton, where are you from?

PEYTON: oh. I'm from Connecticut.

HERMIONE: really? I've been there

PEYTON: yeah, I live in a little town by Hartford.

HARRY: that's cool

(Everyone finishes eating then HARRY and RON go to check on OLIVER, while HERMIONE shows PEYTON around the castle. She's showing her the library when DRACO comes up to them.)

DRACO: Granger,

HERMIONE: Malfoy,

DRACO: well?

HERMIONE: well what?

DRACO: aren't you going to introduce me to your friend?

HERMIONE: Peyton, this is Malfoy. Malfoy, Peyton. Okay? Lets go

(they start to leave but DRACO moves in front of them)

HERMIONE: please move

DRACO: ( to PEYTON) I'm sorry she didn't introduce me correctly, my name is Draco Malfoy. I'm in Slythrin

PEYTON: oh, so you're the slimy git everyone warned me not to get to know.

(DRACO glares at HERMIONE, both girls laugh and walk away, leaving DRACO by himself)

HERMIONE: where did that come from?

PEYTON: I don't know, it just came out

HERMIONEL I feel like Ron saying this, but that was bloody brilliant.

(PEYTON laughs and they continue their tour. Meanwhile at he Gryffindor common room, HARRY and Ron try to talk to OLIVER.)

RON: hey mate, what's going on with you?

HARRY: yeah you were really quiet at dinner

OLIVER: it was nothing, I just had a lot on my mind.

RON: like...

OLIVER: stuff

HARRY: oh, that explains it, come on man, what's up?

OLIVER: its nothing guys, come on I'm trying to work

RON: your sitting there reading a Quidditch magazine

HARRY: come on, tell us what's up

RON: if you don't were just going to sit here and bug you all night about it

OLIVER: then I'll go up to my room

RON: you mean the room that we all share?

(RON and HARRY smile at him, OLIVER sighs.)

OLIVER: fine, I'll tell you, but you have to promise me that you won't tell another soul, okay?

RON: okay

OLIVER: (to HARRY) okay?

HARRY: okay, geez Wood, what's up?

(OLIVER takes a deep breath)

OLIVER: ithinkihaveacrushonpeyton

HARRY/RON: huh?

OLIVER: I think I have a crush on Peyton.

RON: really?

OLIVER: yeah, but she thinks I'm a total dork

HARRY: how do you figure?

OLIVER her and 'Mione were laughing at me at dinner.

RON: well so was I, but that doesn't mean I like you

(OLIVER and HARRY look at him.)

RON: NOT LIKE THAT! Geez

(they all laugh. PEYTON and HERMIONE walk in.)

HERMIONE: hey guys RON: hey 'Mione, hey Peyton, how was the tour?

HERMIONE: oh, it was great, Peyton totally told off Malfoy

HARRY: really?

PEYTON: (blushing) it wasn't that great

HERMIONE: oh come on, it was awesome.

(HERMIONE told them what happened and the all laughed. They talked for about an hour, OLIVER didn't say much. HERMIONE and PEYTON announced that they were going to go up to their room and go to sleep. )

HARRY: night guys

RON: see you at breakfast.

HARRY looked at OLIVER, who was silent. He nudged him,

OLIVER: 'night guys

HERMIONE: 'night Oliver.

PEYTON: night, thanks for the welcoming guys.

(She smiled and walked upstairs.)

OLIVER: well guys, I'm going to turn in as well

RON: oh yeah, all the silence must have made you real exhausted.

(Oliver picked up a pillow off of the couch and threw it at him, and went upstairs.)

HARRY: so, Wizard's Chess?

RON: of course.
