Disclaimer: I'm slowly going insane during this teachers strike! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh ya I don't own this stuff and no I don't have the copy rights to Handles Messiah although I do own that CD.
Chapter 10: Days end
Cherie flopped aimlessly on her bed absently flicking on her light and crawling under the covers. She pulled out her CD case and popped open her CD player. A wave of home sickness rolled over her as Handles Messiah began to play. Cranking the sound up till it was almost an employee work hazard for the house elves, she reached around her lamp and grabbed a brown leather bound book. Flipping the pages she soon reached he book mark on a page entitled 2 Nephi and began to read starting at chapter 17.
It wasn't long before one of Cherries room mates entered the room. Pansy covered her ears and ran over to turn Cherries music down. Reaching for the volume control she found her hand being slapped away by her semi aware room mate. Huffing pansy ran over to her own CD player and began to blare the wizard version of Britney spears music (I don't like her, but I thought that pansy seemed like a Britney fan). Cherie set down her book, gave pansy a pointed look turned off her own CD player and left screaming (which if you have ever heard Cherie yell you would know she could be hear not only over pansy's tasteless music but all the way to the other side of the castle) "Culture Impaired!"

After a long walk on the Hogwarts grounds Cherie bumped into someone. "Oh! I'm so sorry!" said the boy, "I wasn't looking where I was going." Cherie looked at the boy assessing whether or not he meant what he had said. Finally she smiled "No it was my fault I didn't mean to disturb you…umm what is your name?" pushing up his glasses the strange blond boy said "Leif Erickson, and what is your name?" Inside her head Cherie was doing the whole 'aww he's sooo cute!' routine. "I'm Cherie Black." Cocking an eyebrow Cherie continued "So…you like a Viking er something?" Leif's head dropped. "Ouch, does everyone know about Leif Erickson?" Grinning Cherie began to talk to him feeling that this was to be the beginning of a very great friendship.
A/N: lol poor Leif stuck with a name like that! ... I'm such an evil person…
