When we all finished our homework we went back to the common room and found a large group of people standing around the bulletin board. So we walked over and pushed our way to the front of the group. On the board there was a huge sign that stretched across half of the board. The sign read:

BIG NEWS

THE FIST QUIDDITCH MATCH OF THE SEASON ON THE 12TH OF OCTOBER WILL BE OPENED BY THE FOURTH LESSON OF THE FIRST YEARS FLYING CLASS ALL HOUSES MUST ATTEND!

So we all broke out of the crowd and went over to the sofa to talk about the news.

Once we got over there and talked about why they were starting the match with a lesson and coming up with different far fetched stories each less probable than the last we decided to play a game of Exploding Snap.

Just as we finished our game Scorpius walked in with Al right behind him. They walked over to us and Scorp sat next to me "Hey Scorp." I said without even looking up from the cards that I was picking up from the table-which was really hard because they kept exploding- and finally getting them into the box I looked up at my brother and asked "Wazzup?"

"Must I have a reason to come and see my little sis?" He replied with a sickeningly wide grin on his face.

"Yes," I said, "So what is it?" I added before he could respond.

"I need to ask you a favor." He said admitting defeat because I had called him out.

"What is it?" I said letting out a sigh.

"I need you to help me get Al here a date for Hogmeade because Alice is busy, don't worry she already approved, and I am still going with Rose so he doesn't want to be left alone."

"Fine I guess I'll help but how, I'm only eleven."

"Um... well... that's kinda sorta the thing we need you to get someone to come and talk to him so he can ask by using your amazing charm after all it's working on someone else I know." He said smirking and I couldn't help but wonder so I looked to my friends to telepathically send them a message but when I caught Hugo's eye he started blushing.

"Weird" I thought.

I pushed that out of my head and continued on with my conversation between me and my older brother "I take it you have someone in mind?" I asked.

He nodded and pointed to a girl with bright blonde hair-almost golden- and said "Anastasia Dunn"

I nodded and immediately ask him about her likes and dislikes so that I would know what to talk about to avoid annoying her and to lure her over to Al.

" She hates Quidditch, I know don't flip it's just for this Saturday then never again, she enjoys muggle fairy tales and make up."

I groaned audibly and he grinned and said sarcastically "Have fun." and pushed me toward her.

I almost bumped into her because of the force he sent my way and then after catching myself, and cursing my brother out loudly in my head ,I walked the remaining steps to her and asked "Um... Are you Anastasia Dunn?"

"Yes," she said and with a huge grin she added talking to me like a baby "And what can I do for the ickle firstie today?"

I resisted the urge to slap her and tell her that I was not little and that I most certainly didn't need her help with anything and persued the mission that I had been sent on. "Um... I wanted to ask you for some tips on how to apply different kinds of make up" I said snatching up the first idea that came to mind.

"Well first thing I need to know before I say anything else is your name." she said still speaking as if I were two.

"My name is Jade Malfoy." I replied calmly.

"OMG. You are Scorpius' little sister aren't you?" She shrieked in my ear causing me to jump.

"Yes, why?" I asked curiously.

"He's so cute!" She shrieked again causing me to jump.

"Um... If you think he's cute you should meet his best mate Albus Potter." I said trying to get off the topic of my brother and back on track.

But instead she came back with "Oh, you know him too. Are you just friends with all the cuties?"

"Uh. I guess," I said nervously " Do you want to meet them?" I asked suddenly realizing that would be the perfect way to lure her to Al.

"Uh, duh," she said like I was stupid " Where are they?"

"Follow me I guess." I responded and started walking towards the boys.

"Hey guys," I said in greeting to them. "Al, Scorp, this is Anastasia Dunn, she asked me to introduce her to you guys."

And soon the boys were talking to her and about twenty minutes later Al popped the question " Hey Anastasia, do you want to go to Hogsmeade this weekend with me my girlfriend is busy? Of course we would just be going as friends but I wondered if you'd like to go."

"Sure." Anastasia said as if she had been expecting the question.

And the rest of the week went without anything really important happening until the weekend rolled in.

On Saturday Lily, Hugo, and I woke up got dressed and walked down to breakfast together.

When we got to breakfast we decide to sit and chat with two older Slytherin boys that Hugo and Lily knew. Their names were Lorcan and Lysander. They were really sweet and funny and neither of them had dates to Hogmeade so they said that they would just go to Honeydukes then come and hang with us and we could eat the sweets together.
