Ha. Ok so here's the deal. I was proof reading this chapter and i realized that it sounds weirdly like a scene from the notebook. Yeah, dunno how that happened but it works. So enjoy!

"Potter stinks!" A boy called when Harry and Allie were passing on their way to Potions. It had been two days since Harry had been announced as the fourth Triwizard Champion and some of the kids weren't taking it too well. Allie thought that they were just jealous that Harry was in it and they weren't. Stupid boys.

"Read the badge Potter!"

"Cedric could beat your arse any day Scar Head!" Harry had reached his boiling point, he had taken it all through breakfast and he had enough. He spun to face the 5th year who said the last comment. Harry growled at the smug look on the boy's face.

"Do you have a problem with me?" Harry snarled. Allie grabbed his arm trying to calm his down. No such luck. He began to walk toward the guy, he was planning on beating the crap out of him, and Allie wasn't going to let it happen. Allie planted her feet trying to make him stop but he just dragged her along with him with her feet skidding across the floor. Damn! Why can't I have vampire strength!? "I said do you have a problem with me?" He went up to the boy and pushed him. The boy staggered back a step only step closer and get right in Harry's face.

The 5th year Hufflepuff looked down at where Harry's hands touched him and brushed away invisible dirt on his robes. "Yeah, I do. " He pushed Harry back. "I don't like cheats." Harry stumbled back, bumping into Allie in the process. He asked her if she was ok before glaring at the older boy.

Allie didn't like where this was headed. She kept her eyes on the boy while grabbing onto Harry's arm like she was going to restrain him if need be. "Harry, let it go." The boys kept glaring at each other, their eyes narrowing more and more every second. "Yeah Harry. Let it go." The Hufflepuff mimicked her.

Harry took another step closer to the 5th year and stood up to his full hight. Allie pushed her in between the angry men and placed her hands on Harry's chest, hoping it would calm him down. "Stop it. Just stop." Allie pleaded with him. The Hufflepuff started to say something but Allie was faster. "Shut up." She hissed with an uncharacteristically scary voice. The boy backed away a step, the faint red tint in Allie's eyes intimidated him.

She'd had it with the two's testosterone, guys were completely idiotic. "Harry, move." She pushed on his chest, causing him to walk backwards. When they were what Allie considered a safe distance from the boy, she released her hold on him.

"He started it." Harry murmured.

"Well I finished it, didn't I? Keep moving, mister." Allie stayed positioned walking behind him in case he changed his mind and tried to fight the boy. After a fair distance she caught up and resumed her place walking next to him.

"Don't let them get to you. You're better than that." She laid a supportive hand on his shoulder and gave it a gentle squeeze. They continued on route to Potions where Snape was waiting to give them hell.

--------------------------------------------------

"I cannot believe he's making you write that essay! That's so unfair!" Harry complained to Allie (well more like yelled it at her) after potions. "All you did was answer that stupid question that no one else in the class would possibly know the answer to!" Harry was a lot more heated about the assignment than Allie, but she was sure it was due to what happened that morning with the Hufflepuff.

"Yeah, well it looks like Snape has a new favorite huh?" Allie said sarcastically. Snape did make an unfair call, but she wasn't going to make a fuss about it. She answered his question on where wolfs bane in northern England could be found and gave him way more information than he was looking for. He wasn't too pleased with her after that. Seeking revenge he assigned Allie an essay as tall as her (five feet, one inch) on what it means to be an insufferable know it all. The essay was due tomorrow. The look on Snape's face while he recited her punishment was enough to make her want to stupify his butt into next year.

"Your not going to actually write the thing are you?"

"Of course I am. Snapey thinks he's going to break me. Well he has another thing coming." She laughed evilly trying to sound like those villains in cheesy superhero movies. Harry just kept a stunned look on his features. She's nuts. But she's good... in an evil way. "And I actually think I might need more room to write. So my paper might actually have to be longer." She told him sarcastically. Harry pushed her lightly and she smirked at him.

"Your insane, Allie Cullen."

"Thank you." she replied.

They reached the DADA classroom. They entered the room and were surprised to see that professor Lupin was not sitting at his desk in that sweater with the elbow patches, he was no where to be seen. It was not a full moon then night before so there was no reason for him to be gone. In Lupin's place was an older, burly man. He was balding and scars covered 75% of his face. But the most unusual thing about the man was that he had a glass eye that was rolling around in his head. It was a fascinating magical invention but Allie couldn't get over the creepiness of the man it belonged to.

The duo sat down at their normal table behind Ron and Hermione. All the students in the room were openly staring at the new teacher. Some of the girls faces held traces of fear but mostly people seemed curious about the man.

He stood up and went to write on the green chalkboard. "My name is Alister Moody." He wrote his name in chicken scratch as he spoke. "Ex Auror for the Ministry of Magic. And I am only here because Professor Dumbledore asked me to be, end of story." Allie thought him to be very bitter. "We will start off the class today by discussing the Unforgivable Curses. The ministry says your too young to learn about them but I say differently."

"Is it me or this guy off his rocker?" Allie whispered to Harry.

"Miss. Cullen!" Moody yelled. Everyone in the room jumped. "Give us a curse, will you?" How the heck did he know my name. He is off his rocker.

Without thinking about it Allie answered "The Imperius Curse, sir" Moody nodded his head at her in approval.

"Good, very good. Come up here please." You've got to be joking me you crazy old man! She stood up and walked to the front of the class. Allie heard Hermione gasp out in terror. She leaned over to Ron. "He cannot do that! Practicing an unforgivable curse on a student! Dumbledore would not approve!"

She reached the front of the class and stood facing the professor. "Now this curse will not hurt her at all. It simply works by allowing the caster to control the mind and actions of the person the curse is cast on." He addressed the class then turned to Allie. "Now focus and try to resist what I'm telling you to do. You probably will not be able too, but at least try. Imperio."

Allie felt nothing. She did not have any sudden urges to pat her head and rub her stomach at the same time or anything else along those lines. Maybe she was broken? Moody looked at her with confused eyes. "Imperio" He stated once again this time with more force in his voice. Still nothing happened, Allie stood there looking around at her fellow students like a dumby.

Maybe the vampire side of her was resilient to it? The professor lowered his wand. He seemed to be stomped on the reason why the curse wasn't working on her. "Well Miss. Cullen" He cleared his throat. "I guess you can resist the curse on the first try. You may return to your seat." She did what he told her to and resumed her spot next to Harry, her face held a look of confusion. The scruffy haired boy along with everyone else was impressed by her ability to reject the curse.

"Yes,well um... give us another curse." Alister Moody taught the rest of his barbaric lesson with a spider that demonstrated the remaining two curses. Every student was appalled by what he was doing but none had the guts to tell him that, he was a scary dude in Allie's opinion. They were all too filled with fear to do anything.

After classes Allie went down to sit under her tree by the Black Lake and read. The lake was probably her favorite place on the entire grounds besides the Forbidden Forest (the forest reminded her of Washington), but they weren't allowed there so she settled for the lake. She looked out over the water for a moment before taking off her robe and placing it on the ground for her to sit on. She was left in her white fitted button down shirt, Gryffindor tie, and the plaid red and gold short skirt. She wasn't sure why Hogwarts gave their female students skirts that went an inch above the knee (which some girls tried to make even sluttier) but they did.

Strange. She rolled up the sleeves of her white shirt and loosened the tie around her neck. She sat down under the tree and removed a book and her ipod out of her Andy Warhol bag. You can take the girl out of the muggle world but you can't take the muggle out of the girl. She smiled to herself.

She put the ipod on shuffle and escaped into her book.

Cedric Diggory was walking around the grounds with some of his friends when he spotted her under the huge weeping willow tree. She looked amazing. He felt like an idiot for the way he acted around her before. He hated that she thought he was the type of guy who used girls, he wasn't like that at all. If he was honest with himself he never had a real girlfriend. He'd been on dates but none of those girls had anything special about them that caused him to act like a total git. It was the exact opposite with Allie.

"Hey, guys I'll catch you later." He called to his friends. They shifted their eyes to see where he was looking, when they saw Allie they smirked at him and said stuff along the lines of 'go get her, tiger'. Cedric let the comments roll off his shoulder, after all guys will be guys.

He walked over to the tree and leaned against it with his arms folded across his chest. She hadn't taken notice of him standing there, she just kept reading. He studied her for a minute, watching the way she read her book with such enthusiasm. He sat down next to her. She still didn't look up to greet him.

"Are you sure you aren't supposed to be in Ravenclaw?" he asked the blond next to him. She acted as if he were invisible. Cedric was puzzled by her attitude. She said they were alright yesterday in the corridor, why was she acting like this? He pursed his lips together,trying to figure how he would get her attention when she clearly didn't want any from him. But then he heard music playing. Allie's mouth moved along with the words coming out of the headphones and her fingers tapped against the book in her hands. She wasn't ignoring him, she simply couldn't hear him. He tapped her on the shoulder.

Her eyes shot up in a flash and when she realized that it was Cedric she smiled and took the ear buds out of her ears. She set them down next to her. "Hey." She replied quickly. "Have you been sitting there long?"

"Only about five minutes." She laughed and then placed her head in her hands out of embarrassment.

"I'm sorry." She said through her hands. She looked up at him. "You see, when I turn on my music and read a book, it's like I block out the world, ya know? And everything else just gets sort of quiet."

"Yeah, I get that." Cedric said. He liked that she was being open with him, she didn't seem like the type to do so. He realized how deep she really was. Allie wasn't just a clumsy troublemaker like he first thought, she was intelligent and down to earth.

She gave him a closed mouth smile. "So what were you saying when I was off in La La Land?"

"I asked if you were sure that you are in the right house. I thought you might have been considered for Ravenclaw."

"Yeah, I'm sure. Why do you think that?" Allie noted in her mind that Ravenclaw wasn't even an option. The sorting hat said Gryffindor or Sytherin (just like Harry), the other two houses were never even mentioned.

"Well because you are always reading. Plus you're extremely smart. You should be the poster girl for Ravenclaw."

"Ha. I didn't think they had troublemakers in Ravenclaw? Or klutzes for that matter. Maybe thats why I'm a Gryffindor." Wait a minute.... troublemaker, smart. Allie had to write a nice long essay for Snape, she had almost forgotten about it. "Oh, no. I've got to go. I'm sorry, I have something to do and it's pretty important." She stood up and began to gather her things that were scattered around the base of the tree.

Cedric shot up after her. He hadn't even had a chance to ask her out yet. He was working up to it, but he was nervous. Oh well, now or never. "The first Hogsmeade weekend is this week and I was wondering..." Allie stopped her hustling around and waited for him to finish his sentence. "I was wondering if you would like to go with me?"

Allie was taken aback by his invitation. "Yeah, I'd like that." She replied sweetly. Cedric flashed his white teeth in a gleaming smile.

"Great! Meet me in the Great Hall at 10?" Allie said she would. They said their goodbyes and Allie headed to the library. For some reason unknown to her, when Cedric asked her out, she thought about Harry and what he would think about it. She shook her head trying to will the thoughts away.
