This is Take a Shot once again. I didn't like how it was moving so I changed it. I also changed Haley's name. The idea is changed a bit too. Let me know how you like it.

By the way there is swearing in here. Specifically reffering to the 'F' word formally known as fuck. :)

The train was to leave in twenty minutes. Students and parents were saying their goodbyes, some short and awkward, some long and intense. Away from all the love on a bench far away sat Callista Everwood, or otherwise known as Callie. She had said goodbye to her father months ago. He worked for the Ministry and had been sent away on an important mission in June and it was now September. Her mother, was murdered when she was three, she never knew her that well.

Callie had gotten used to her father's disappearances; it gave her time alone. It wasn't that she didn't get along with her father; in fact they had an excellent relationship. They were just best friends with limitations. Every moment they had together was spent with father-daughter activities of some sort. She owed him her life, both literally and figuratively.

Watching all the goodbyes she let her mind drift back to her first day at Hogwarts. She clearly remembered not wanting her father to leave but once she was on the train and had met her best friend Georgia Walker she was fine. The two clicked from the very beginning. The first train ride, they sat in the last cabin later to be joined by Harry Potter and Ron Weasley. From then on the four became fast friends with Hermione Granger and Ginny Weasley, Ron's kid sister later joining.

Callie watched Georgia hug her parents. She had to admit she was jealous but knew she would have to live with it. Smiling she made her way over but stopped a few feet away. Her eyes widened and she blinked a couple times hoping she wasn't dreaming. She wasn't. In front of her stood the most beautiful boy she had ever seen. He had thick shaggy white blonde hair and smoky blue eyes. His dark jeans accentuated his perfect legs and his navy T-shirt helped with his muscles. Callie couldn't help but stare. A smile crept across her face and one on his as well. It was one of the rare genuine smiles only the sweet boys gave.

She had no idea who he was but needed to find out. Hopping over to Georgia, Callie hugged her friend but never took her eyes off the boy. Georgia watched her friend intensely to see what she was staring at. She snapped her head in the direction of Callie's eyes. Then she saw him. He was…most definitely the most gorgeous boy either girl had ever seen. They stood completely still with their jaws dropped. Out of the corner of his eye he saw them and smirked.

That was when it hit her. She knew exactly who he was but she just wanted true confirmation. It was the sexy smirk; every girl in the school fell for it. Georgia was in love with it, just not the guy. The two just stood there waiting for the train to leave. Georgia didn't want to move, she wanted to stay there forever and stare at him.

The engine of the train started and the horn blew. Georgia and Callie grabbed their belongings and rushed up onto the train towards the last cabin. Their bags were dropped on the seats and they stepped out into the hallway. Hoping desperately to catch another glance at the boy the two stood outside the cabin pretending to be in deep conversation.

With a small smile he walked past them to the bathroom, "Good morning Georgia…How are you PC?"

"Great, thanks." Callie responded with a large smile on her face.

Callie's eyes widened. Only one person ever called her PC. That was her best friend from her younger years. PC, it stood for Princess Callie. She knew she should have recognized him or at least remembered her nickname for him. But nothing was coming to mind. If he was her best friend, then he'd changed. She only remembered the young cute blonde boy who loved to run around in the rain with her and play endless immature games. Leaving for school was hard; both couldn't tell each other where they were going. It had to be a secret. And now in her 6th year of Hogwarts she heard someone call her PC.

"How do you think he knew our names?" Georgia asked not taking her eyes off the bathroom door.

Callie shrugged her shoulders, "I…don't…know."

Knowing full well who he was, she hid it from her friend. She didn't want to see him emerge from the bathroom. She didn't want to see her friend's reaction. Georgia grinned and bit her lip anxious to find out who it was. Callie ran her hand through her hair.

The door unlocked and was pulled open. Out came a tall boy with white blonde slicked back hair and the Slytherin uniform. Georgia's eyes widened. She was shocked. That wasn't at all what the girls expected. Callie didn't want to believe it. She didn't want to think that he could have been her best friend. It wasn't possible. No, it wasn't. It wasn't the arrogant bastard.

She slunk down to the floor as he walked by raising his eyebrows looking down at her, "Get out of my way Everwood!"

Callie immediately shifted her body so he could pass. He whipped his cloak in her face and marched up to his cabin. Her eyes wandered over in his direction confused. After he emerged from the cabin he was completely different. It was as if there were two sides to him. Firstly, there was the sweet, sexy side they saw before he went to the bathroom, then the arrogant, rude side that came out of the bathroom.

The bad boy attitude was an act…or was the sexy boy attitude an act. Callie wanted to find out, she wanted to meet the true him. Looking up at Georgia she saw her still staring in the same spot with her eyes wide. Callie laughed, stood up and whacked her friend over the head.

Georgia shook herself from her trance and turned to look in the direction of the boy. The two girls sighed and walked into the cabin. Within a few moments their friends joined; Ginny, Ron, Harry and Hermione. Hermione looked over at Georgia and Callie who still seemed shocked. Her head was cocked to the side as she tried to figure out what they were so aptly staring at.

Finally she bluntly asked them, "What's so shocking that you have to stare into space for?"

Callie looked over at Hermione without blinking and mouthed, 'hot guy.'

"So if he was so hot, why aren't you swooning? Why are you shocked?" Ginny asked questioningly.

"Because he was gorgeous until we found out who he was." Georgia confirmed.

Hermione thought for a moment, "Wait…was it the gorgeous blonde boy?"

Callie nodded. It was indeed, the gorgeous blonde boy that knew her childhood nickname. She didn't want to believe it. He was her best friend? Of all the people in the entire school, it had to be him. It had to be the self-centered arrogant piece of crap bastard that made fun of her every year. All her hopes of finding her best friend had been shattered. Now that she knew who it was she didn't want to search anymore, she didn't want to find him.

For the rest of the train ride she sat in thought about what to do. After finally arriving at Kings Cross Station she quickly ran off the train with Georgia right behind her. They jumped into the first carriage they could get. The door was then opened and the arrogant, blond boy came in.

"Ugh…Walker, Everwood, why the bloody hell did this have to be the only fucking carriage left?"

"I don't know. Why do you have to be so fucking rude?" Callie spat in his face.

"Because I'm me, that's why."

Callie rolled her eyes and slumped back against the back of the carriage. Georgia couldn't help but look at him. Even though he was her enemy she couldn't get over the fact that just a few hours ago he had been this gorgeously sexy boy.

He glared at the two girls and crossed his arms across his chest. For the duration of the carriage ride which only lasted a few minutes the two girls became very frustrated with him. After finally arriving at Hogwarts he rushed out and up into the castle. Georgia and Callie looked at each other confused.

Slowly the slid out of the carriage and walked up into the school. Callie couldn't help but wonder how he knew her childhood nickname. He couldn't be. He couldn't be her best friend. She wouldn't let it be true. All the students piled into the Great Hall getting ready for the feast. Callie sat down at her table and caught a glimpse of him from across the room. He rolled his eyes before smirking.

It was strange, never had she thought she'd see him be nice. He just wasn't that type of guy. Obviously there had to be a reason for it. Someone couldn't just change personalities so quickly, unless perhaps he was bipolar. But…but she'd never seen it before. It was only this year. What was so different? Why did he pick this year to change? Was there something special about the sixth year that was so important?

Callie knew HER sixth year was important, she just couldn't understand why his may be. He was after all just an arrogant bastard. She was afraid of this year, he was back and her life would be more stressful. She didn't need any arrogant bastard drama. She rested her arms on the table and looked up at the front of the Hall where Professor Dumbledore was beginning his usual welcome back to Hogwarts speech.

She sighed and stared in front of her. Her hand was placed on her arm tightly trying to ease the sudden pain. It always happened at the worst times. Lately it had been worse, so much stronger than before. She clenched her teeth and shut her eyes trying to not think about it. Nothing was working. Finally giving in and getting annoyed she turned to Georgia.

"Let me know if he says anything important, I've got to go."

Georgia looked at her friend for a moment before realising what was happening. She nodded and watched Callie run towards the door of the Great Hall. Callie pulled it open. The entire school turned to look at her. She smiled quickly before exiting. Still clutching onto her arm she ran down the large set of stairs and pulled open the grand door. Out into the open air she took a deep breath before quietly opening the brass gate. After she was out of the school grounds, she disappeared
