Part 7

I stood next to George and I must have still been smiling.

"Well you look extremely happy! Is it because you're standing next to me?" He kidded tickling my sides

"Oh of course it is! Do you know anything about Durmstrang and Beauxbatons?"

"Well I know Durmstrang is an all boys school and Beauxbatons is a mixed" George said folding his arms and looking up towards the sky

"Oh I can eye up the talent then!" I said

"Well I think you should stay away" He said, in the darkness I couldn't be a hundred percent sure but I was sure he blushed

"Well you are older and wiser than me so I guess I should take your advice" I said smiling at him, I saw Sian and Niamh come out of the castle. "I'm just going to go and see them, see you later!" I said waving goodbye to George

"Hey guys!" I shouted across the courtyard, Niamh signalled that something was wrong with Sian

"Sian what's up?" I asked her

"It's Matthew, he's going out with someone from Hufflepuff" She said in-between tears

"Oh Sian don't worry, they won't last two minutes" I reassured her as I looked around for Matthew and spotted him kiss a Hufflepuff I remembered who was called Shannon, I turned Sian away from the scene.

"But ... but ... they're already kissing and everything" She said crying even harder this time

"Hey don't worry about it, George just told me that Durmstarang is an all boys school! So there will be plenty of new boys coming and you can prove to Matty how amazing you are okay?" I said giving her a hug

"An all boy's school?" Sian questioned as she wiped the tears from her face

"Yeah honestly! George never lies to me!" I truthfully said

"Cause he loves you!" Sian said laughing, she looked a lot happier

"Well you lie to me!" I laughed back

Sian was about to reply but the crowd gathered outside of Hogwarts started gasping and pointing towards the sky where what seemed to be a carriage baby blue carried by numerous flying horses was heading towards our school. It landed with a crash and almost instantly a boy dressed in blue came out and opened the door. Everyone gasped in shock when they saw her; she was twice as tall as Hagrid and looked French, if you can look French. Dumbledore began to clap and everyone suddenly came out of shock and joined in. She spoke to Dumbledore, or should we say Dumbly-dorr , in a very beautiful French accent and during this time around 24 students climbed out of the Beauxbatons carriage in matching blue robes and they looked freezing as they were wearing no cloaks. I noticed a lot of the boy looking at two girls in particular who looked extremely beautiful and I couldn't help but think of the veelas at the quidditch world cup, I allowed myself to glance over at Draco and my heart skipped a beat when I saw him not looking at them but looking down towards the ground as I looked his way. A second after this Fred, who was very tall, shouted "look at the lake!" and everyone's attention went over to the lake. There was a ship slowly rising over from the lake everyone stood there in awe and the whole ground went silent are it rose to the topof the lake and as it sailed to shore a man with slick grey hair came of the ship and stood talking to Professor Dumbledore for a while until one of his students came forward. It was Victor Krum. A quidditch legend who was so quick on a broom it was blurry when he flew past you. I, unlike many other girls, did not have a crush on him but just admired his amazing quidditch skills. After the excitement off Victor Krum the other students of Durmstrang came out and none of them offended the eyes, I saw on boy with swoopy blonde brown hair, big brown eyes and a heart crumbling smile that instantly made me think of Sian, I looked over at her and her gaze was following that boy. This could be interesting I thought as we all entered the great hall behind the Durmstrang students. I took a seat next to Hermione and Fred which was actually facing the Slytherin table and Draco was sitting in my straight ahead of me, I blushed slightly but started talking to Fred about the experiment sessions.

"So when do they begin?" I asked him

"Very little one" He replied

"Fred you know how much it annoys me when you call me that!" I sad putting on a sad face

"That's exactly why I do it!" Fred said jokingly

"They look happy don't they, I said pointing over to the Ravenclaw table where the Beauxbatons students were sitting, lots of the girls looked cold and depressed.

"Well Malfoy seems to be loving the fact Krum is near him" Fred said through what seemed to be gritted teeth, I allowed myself to look over and sure enough he was talking to Krum.

"I hate him you know" Friend continued

"Who? Krum?" I questioned

"No Malfoy, he thinks he's something and goes running to his father over everything, he's a little baby" Fred said, I sat there nodding in agreement even though inside I was bursting to say you don't know him "Do you like him Justine?" Fred asked

"Oh well ... I mean he shouldn't have pushed me over, again thank for sticking up for me and don't listen to anything he says about your family, they are so lovely" Which was all true and the Weasley family were always so welcoming, Fred dad especially liked me for my muggle traits, I had actually sent him some torches and batteries over summer and George had told me he hadn't slept for days due to all of the examining he was doing.

"Don't worry about it, your practically part of the family" he said nudging me

"Well your welcome to my house anytime but it's so boring compared to yours" I said, I had stayed over there for a week every summer since I started Hogwarts on Fred and Georges behalf, they were my best guy friends by a mile.

"I have visited your house if you remember" Fred said winking, I remembered this experience quite well, it was the middle of the night and the two twins had flown from their house to mine because they had been grounded for blowing up the oven so they need refugee and chose my bedroom, it was a funny few days trying to introduce to the muggle world like when we went shopping the both kept asking what everything was and when they tried muggle sweets they didn't like any of them but marshmallows, since then I had always brought a massive supply for them. My parents were shocked when I told them the next morning they were sleeping in the spare room but they soon got over it when they both made them a cup of tea which was spiked with a potion to make people like them, it was incredibly funny watching the results but my parents always asked about the two boys; maybe it had a permanent effect.

Finally the welcoming feast came in front of our very eyes and George came running down towards us both were Fred had saved him a seat.

"Where have you been?" I asked George

"Oh Hagrid wanted me to help with the horses" George lied

"Yeah cause you're that much of a saint, what's this?" I said reaching for a piece of parchment that was hanging out of his pocket. As I opened it I saw Krums signature but George was blushing red so I slipped it back into his pocket without even Fred seeing "That's sweet" I whispered in

"What is Merlins name is this?" Fred asked picking up a ladle to a grey looking broth

"Who could eat that? It looks like owl poo" George said smelling it, I looked over towards the Slytherin table and all of the Durmstrang student were tucking into it

"I think it's a delicacy from Russia" I said reaching for a lamb chop

"Well if Krum can eat, I can try it" Fred and George said at the same time which made me laugh. The each took a small bit on their plate.

"Ready Fred?" George asked

"Ready George" Fred responded

"One, two, three" They said together and placed a spoonful in their mouth. George looked sick and Fred looked disgusted

"Not to nice i'm guessing then?" I said eating some mash

"It tastes like owl poo" George said tacking a massive drink of pumpkin juice

I laughed at the boys responses and as I looked up from my plate I caught Draco looking over.
