Harry, however, seemed less than pleased. He was used to working with Weasley and Granger—so why would he be eager to work with Romilda, the girl he hardly knew?

"Hi," he muttered, immediately slumping over his desk and throwing his bag onto the floor.
The chocolate rustled in Romilda's bag, and she forced herself to inhale a mouthful of confidence. "Would you like a chocolate, Harry?"
