Hey you guys. I know, I have updated for over a week. Don't hate. I've just been busy with school and a lot - a lot - of my recent inspiration is going towards a different story, as I've mentioned. But don't worry; I'm back now.

And I dearly hope you enjoy this Chapter. It's quick but I like it.

See you later!

Present Day...

Harry faced Ginny Weasley with a scowl.

'Weasley.'

Ginny rolled her eyes.

'Potter.'

'What are you doing here?' demanded Harry.

'I've lost my friend Jasmine and I was just wondering…' Ginny trailed off at Harry's raised eyebrows. 'What?' she asked.

Harry rolled his eyes.

'Do you not use your common sense, Weasley? Oh, sorry. I forgot you don't have any. Why would your friend be with us?'

Ginny glared at him.

'You had the blinds drawn and I'm checking every carriage. Trust me, there's nothing special about you that I just had to come visit,' she said.

'Ahuh,' replied Harry lazily. 'Now, if you don't mind.'

He turned around and was about to close the door when Ginny said,

'Jerk.'

Harry laughed coldly and looked at her again.

'What's new?'

'One of these days…' growled Ginny.

Harry raised a condescending eyebrow.

'One of these days, what?'

'One of these days the universe is going to come around and you're going to have your arse kicked for everything you've ever done.'

Harry laughed heavily.

'Well, princess, until then you're stuck with me,' he said, shrugging carelessly.

Ginny's hand flew to her pocket where Harry knew she kept her wand.

His eyes shone in amusement.

'Go ahead, Weasley,' he smirked. 'I dare you.'

Ginny glared at him for a few seconds before she took in a deep breath and all the tension drained from her expression.

'You know what… it's just not worth it,' she said more to herself.

Before turning and walking from him.

'Coward,' called Harry, knowing it would strike her hard.

Ginny went rigid before spinning on her heal and pulling out her wand, pointing it at Harry with a lethal expression to match.

Harry, though, expected it and in return pulled out his wand, looking at Ginny with a challenging gaze.

'You should really learn not to rise so easily. It's far too simple to rile you up… it's almost boring,' said Harry lazily.

Ginny's grip tightened on her wand.

'You're a jerk, Potter,' she said.

'Tell me something I don't know, Weasley,' said Harry.

'Hey, what's' –

Tom stopped up short, the carriage door closing behind him.

'Oh…' he laughed. 'Look who it is. Little Weaslette. You two are hilarious, do you know that? A great source of entertainment.'

Harry straightened up slightly and let his wand fall. Ginny narrowed her eyes at him before slowly withdrawing herself.

'Oh don't stop on my account,' said Tom. 'It was just getting interesting.'

Harry ignored him.

'I'll see you around then, Weasley,' he smirked.

'Here's me hoping I won't,' snapped Ginny before turning and striding away once more.

Harry laughed at her back before turning to Tom.

'Why'd you guys stop?' asked Tom.

Harry rolled his eyes.

'Get over it, Tom,' he said before opening the carriage door and sitting himself back down in his seat, wishing badly that he had been given just one more minute, to flaw Weasley in a duel.

The rest of the train ride was uneventful for the three Slytherins.

After explaining briefly to Edward and Tom what had happened with Ginny, Harry sat back to enjoy a relaxing journey to Hogwarts.

Hours later, the train came to a slow stop in Hogsmede Station.

Harry was the first to stand, followed quickly by his two friends.

The carriage ride to the castle flew by and soon the boys were sitting down at the Slytherin table, Harry's attention drawn to Edward and Tom who were in the midst of an argument over nothing in particular.

Harry gave a slight roll of his eyes, sliding into the bench.

However, just as soon as he sat down, he felt the odd feeling of someone watching him.

Sitting up straighter, Harry's eyes immediately sought out the starer.

Upon seeing who it was, however, he smirked.

Indigo Hurst blushed, knowing she'd been caught in the act of gawking.

She shifted her eyes down and a slight blush tainted her pale complexion.

A pretty young Ravenclaw, Harry knew Indigo had a thing for him.

She wasn't really subtle about it, but Harry didn't really mind.

Because if he was honest with himself, he too felt something for her.

He had only ever spoken to her a few times, but she seemed nice enough.

It didn't hurt anyone that she really was quite pretty.

She had bright and swirling grey eyes, pale, flawless skin and black, straight hair that fell past her shoulders and was so dark, it looked like it had highlights of blue and purple in it.

Harry had known her since third year and had never really had a strong desire to ask her out.

But, really. He truly did find her extremely pretty.

Harry held his gaze until Indigo looked up again.

Seeing he was looking at her, her blush deepened and Harry laughed, trying his luck and sending her a slight wink.

That seemed to freeze Indigo and she looked at him with wide eyes from across the hall.

Harry smiled smirked and turned to Tom and Edward.

Edward raised his eyes to the ceiling and Tom snorted. Clearly, they'd gotten over their disagreement.

'Indigo?' asked Tom.

Harry's smirk only grew and he nodded.

'Why don't you just ask her out? The poor girl's been waiting for – what? Three years now, is it?' asked Edward, running a hand through his hair.

Harry laughed in a cocky way, leaning back in his chair as though at ease and in power.

'I don't know,' he said, peering past Tom to glance once more at Indigo. 'Just doesn't really seem like the right time.'

'Not to mention Harry's afraid of commitment,' murmured Tom, glancing to Edward, who smirked.

Harry scowled.

'I'm not. I just don't really like her enough to ask her out. Is there a problem with that?' he snapped.

Edward laughed.

'Touchy.'

'Of course there's no problem,' said Tom, grinning, 'you're just keeping her hanging, that's all.'

'Which is exactly how I like it.'

After dinner, Harry, Tom and Edward walked together to the Slytherin common room and up in their dorm, the three boys were quick to change into pyjamas.

Harry fell back on his bed, sighing in contentment.

'It's good to be back.'

Tom snorted, sitting on his own four-poster.

'You say that now. Wait until school really starts up. Then you'll be cursing the very invention of education.'

'Why was school invented?' commented Edward.

Both Tom and Harry turned to him with raised eyebrows.

'What?' snapped Edward. 'Is it a crime to be curious?'

Harry laughed and Tom rolled his eyes.

'Pointless questions by Edward Davis,' he muttered.

This only made Harry laugh harder.

'You two are mental,' he grinned.

Tom smiled brightly.

'Thanks.'

Harry snorted and slid under his covers, turning onto his side.

'I think I'm going to sleep now.'

'Okay… thanks for telling us that.'

'Good night.'

'Night.'

'Don't let the bed-bugs bite.'

'Seriously, Edward?'

'Deal with it.'

'Shut up.'

'No, you shut up.'

'Shut up the both of you!'

'Sorry Harry.'

…

'Night.'

Harry rolled his eyes, but couldn't help his smile.

It was certainly very good to be back home.
