A/N: Hi everyone! Thanks for reading and thanks for reviewing. Uhm, I don't really have much to say except the chapters are going to start getting shorter because the numbers are getting lower. Aaaannndd that's it.

Chapter 3- 8 People
There were eight people that John Thomas Collins would never understand.

1. Scorpius Malfoy

A fellow Slytherin, though a year below, JT felt he knew Scorpius fairly well.

But he would never understand why Scorpius was a Slytherin. He was not cunning nor very ambitious. He wasn't power-hungry or sly. In fact, he was an all around nice guy. He understood what Rose Weasley saw in him.

But he did not understand Scorpius Malfoy.

2. James Potter

James Potter, he knew, was a nice guy. But he acted cocky and arrogant and over-confidant. He had girls hanging off of him all the time, and yet had never had an actual girlfriend.

He didn't know everyone. In fact, he knew barely anyone's name. It was well known that he mixed up the names of the girls all the time.

He and his best friend Chase Thomas were just strange sometimes.

And JT did not understand that.

3. His older sister

Ok, but really, how could anyone understand Daniela. She was just…Daniela. There was no other way to put it.

I mean, how many other people do you know that come home and announce that their life's dream is now to become a prostitute…and are completely serious.

That's right. No one. Daniela was just…unique. In her own special way.

He definitely didn't understand Daniela.

4. His best friend

Dylan Hamden was, there was no other way to put it, strange. But he was JT's best friend, all the same.

He was just one of those people that were just naturally strange. He believed that rumors were facts and facts were rumors. He hardly ever listened to what his head was saying and was always acting before he thought

Nope, JT did not understand his best friend at all.

5. Professor Longbottom

He had often wondered about Professor Longbottom. Mostly about how he had ever been a Gryffindor.

Professor Longbottom was not brave or bold. He was quiet, meek, fairly shy, and kind.

And JT did not understand him at all.

6. Amanda Lynn Shigo

She was gorgeous. In his opinion. She was fair and sweet and beautiful. And she didn't even know it. He didn't get that.

He also didn't understand her. At all.

7. First years

So this wasn't one person…but they might as well have been. All first years were clingy and annoying.

They irked him and he was sure that he was not this obnoxious as a first year.

They asked too many questions and they were in the way. And yet, they were always trying to stay quiet and be out of the way.

He would never understand first years.

8. His mother

Out of all the people that JT would never understand, his mother was probably the most confusing.

Because despite all the times that his father had cheated on her and walked out on them…his mother always took him back.

And even though she knew it would happen again, she always welcomed him home with open arms. And when he left, she would cry for days, wondering what she did wrong this time. And he would come back and the cycle would repeat.

And after everything that he did, JT could not understand why his mother allowed this.

And there you have it. The eight people that John Thomas Collins would never understand.

A/N: So, what do we think of this chapter??
