I didn't even get close to figuring out Scorpius as Lily captured my attention instead by asking about her potions homework.

By the time I had explaining what she needed to do, the guys had started on their favourite topic, quidditch, and Lily wanted to join in the conversation too.

Only seconds after finishing my last sentence to her, she was in with the conversation about which house was going to win the quidditch cup next.

James was boasting about being captain of the Gryffindor team, which he also described as "the best team there", and how no one could beat a team that contained three Weasleys, two of which were the children of a famous quidditch player.

Lily and Hugo were smirking at the fact James thought the team they were on was unbeatable.

Louis was arguing that it wasn't about blood; it was about your abilities and using your strengths to win.

And Albus and Scorpius were saying that no one could be Slytherin because most of them had got brand new brooms.

I wasn't interested in any of it, and was off thinking about my timetable tomorrow and if I had completed all the homework, which I knew I had, when I felt something brush against my leg under the table.

Assuming it was all in my head; I ignored it and went back to my thinking.

Then it happened again. Something smooth touched my ankle.

This had never happened before. I had no idea what was going on.

The smooth thing started to move slowly up the outside of my right leg. It made me freeze solid.

Whatever it was stopped halfway up my leg and lingered there. I began to breathe deeply to calm myself down. The thing didn't linger long and before I knew it, it was moving back down my leg again, finishing at my ankle.

I could feel it lingering there, rubbing small circles into my outer ankle. I was still breathing deeply. This had brought me back down to earth with a bump.

I flinched sharply and the thing disappeared.

"What the hell did that?" I almost shouted, cutting off the previous conversation.

Everyone sitting near me looked at me like I just started to make chicken noises. I could feel the blush forming across my cheeks.

I coughed. "Something just rubbed my leg under the table, and I, umm, just wondered if anyone here knew what did it."

I looked down at my plate and started push my food around with my fork. I could feel my cheeks beginning to burn more and I knew that the colour in them had probably darkened about 3 shades.

After a couple minutes of an awkward silence, James began to laugh. My head snapped to my right. He was looking to the person in front of him, Albus.

I looked at him too; he was rubbing the top of his right arm and was glaring at the blonde next to him. The blonde however, had his elbows on the table, at either side of his plate. His hands were propping up his forehead and he was staring very intensely at the plate below him.

I was confused. The whole scene made no sense to me whatsoever.

I looked to my left to Lily, who was giggling. I shot her the same confused look.

I went to say something, but she cut me off.

"Rose, dya wanna go start our study session now?" Her eyes were wide, like she was trying to convey a hidden message.

Due to the fact this was the excuse we used whenever we got together for girly nights, I knew exactly what she meant.

And right now, I couldn't wait to get away to Lily's dorm.

I said only two words to her. And they were "Hell yes."

She stood up and I followed her lead. I picked up the bag that was next to me on the seat, and slung it over my shoulder.

Within seconds, James and Hugo slid into our seats. Talk about quick to jump into our graves.

Lily linked arms with me on my left side, and we began to move towards the exit.

We hadn't taken two steps forwards when Lily unlinked from my arm, turned back to the table and said something to the guys.

I wasn't in the mood to talk to any of them regarding the last incident. I didn't turn around but I did hear the small exchange between Lily and the rest of my family.

"So, I just wanted to say night to you all, and that Rose and I will be working very hard, so I suggest you don't disturb us."

She was obviously waiting for an answer. James was the one that provided her with it.

"Okay then, Lily. Which common room are you going to?"

I wanted Lily to lie, because knowing our relatives; they would probably try and barge in halfway through us getting merry and steal the firewhiskey. I wanted her to lie but she didn't.

"We're not going to a common room; we will be in my dorm room. But like I said, please don't disturb us, unless you want hexing into oblivion."

He tone was like that of a parent. It was perfectly calm but laced with warning. It was a tone that I had never heard her use before.

Louis answered her this time.

"Lily, don't worry, you won't see any of us all night. We're all going to the Slytherin common room to play cards and stuff."

I still had my back to them. They couldn't see I was smirking, but I was. I assumed that their "and stuff", was exactly the same as what me and Lily had planned.

Lily laughed.

"So, I guess you're going to be flower arranging then?"

That sentence didn't half baffle me. Why would a group of guys be doing flower arranging at Hogwarts? That made no sense what so ever. I assumed that it must be a code for something, but before I could think more about it more someone spoke. It was James again.

"I'm guessing so little sister, I'm guessing so."

Lily chuckled again.

"I guess that it's goodnight then boys." She said. I heard her turn back to me before I felt her link her arm through mine again.

We glanced at each other and started to move away from the guys. She glanced back for a second, before shouting back, "Have fun flower arranging."

She smiled at me as were walked up to the doors of the Great Hall. When we were out of earshot, I had to ask her what they were on about.

"Lily, why are the guys flower arranging?"

She smiled at me, with her green eyes glittering with mischief.

"It means they're all going to get drunk. However, I can't exactly say that when we were sitting near the teachers now, can I?"

"That's what I thought!" I laughed.

Lily looked at me before rolling her eyes, shaking her head and muttering something.

Something that I thought sounded remarkably like, "For a Ravenclaw, you're pretty damn stupid."
