Diana made her way down to the Great Hall early that morning. She wanted to finish her summer homework and get something to eat before meeting up with Tilly. Just as she was finishing her Transfiguration work, she heard a voice next to her.

"Morning, Diana." She turned to see Harry sitting next to her.

"Where the heck did you come from?" She asked. Was she really that distracted by homework?

"Do you want me to move?" he asked.

"No no, you just surprised me that's all."

The two of them sat and ate their breakfast until Professor McGonagall made her way over to Harry.

"Mr Potter. Here is your class schedule. You'll be in the Moon Class."
Before Harry could thank her, Professor McGonagall was already making her way over to the next group of Gryffindors.

"What does she mean by Moon Class?" Harry asked Diana.
"It's just which class you'll be in. Don't worry too much." Diana said while reaching for the fruit bowl. "It's just how they put all the students into smaller groups, so a teacher doesn't have to teach thirty children at a time.

Harry's face turned to one of embarrassment. It did sound kinda oblivious when you say it out loud like that.

"How do you like the place so far?" Diana asked, trying to change the subject.

"Oh umm, it's really nice here! It's better than I could have ever imagined." Harry paused. "It's a big place though. I have no idea how to get anywhere."

Diana thought of the map in her book bag and pulled it out on instinct.

"You can use this if you want."

"What is it?"

"It's a school map. A friend and I have been working on it as a side project." Diana said while unfolding it to show Harry the different school floors. "What's your first lesson?"

"Astrology," Harry said.

Diana pointed out where the Astrology classroom was and how to get to it. When she finished, she looked down at her watch and realised that she needed to go meet Tilly.

"I've gotta head off Harry. See you later."

Diana to run all the way up to Fifth-floor. The entrance to the clubroom was located at the end of a dead-end hallway. Diana and Tilly had stumbled upon the door to the room last year and later decided to use it as a 'base of operations' when founding their club.

Diana looked over the sleepy dragon portrait and then rubbed the dragon's nose, causing it to wake up and let out a giggle. The bookcase to the left then clicked and swung open a little.
Diana hopped through the gap of the bookcase and closed it behind her. She found Tilly waiting on one of the old-timey couches, reading a muggle novel.

When the two friends first found the room, they assumed that it must've been some kind of drawing-room at one point in time. It was nice. It had a decent amount of space and was decorated with a bunch of old-looking furniture like fancy hanging lights and an old piano near the window.

It was cosy and comfortable, and best of all, private. The only other people who knew about it were George and Fred (but it seemed like nothing was secret to them).

"Guess who?" Diana said while covering Tilly's eyes.

"You know that covering my eyes doesn't make it so I can't recognise your voice, right?"

"Wrong answer! You're supposed to say 'my best friend Diana, who I love very much'."

"Did that sound better in your head?"

"Yeah, a little bit."

The two of them started discussing what they would need to do going forward. How to get new members to join the club and how to get a teacher to sponsor the group. Things like that.

They both originally wanted Professor McGonagall to be their sponsor, but it turned out that she was too busy with classes and other clubs, so couldn't. None of the other teachers seemed to be interested in the girls' project and as a result, didn't want to sponsor.

It was an annoying process just to start a club, but Diana didn't want to give up just because things got a little bit hard. She cared about what she and Tilly were trying to do and wanted to see it through till the end.

"I'll try and talk to some of the other teachers at the end of classes today. Do you mind giving me the map?" Tilly said while closing a sketchbook with all their ideas and plans.

Diana froze.

"Ummm well, you see… I kinda… gave it away."

Tilly breathed in. "Who did you give to?"

"Harry Potter."

"WHY?!"

"He needed it! I did it on impulse. I'm sorry!"

"We worked on that map for months," Tilly said in a sad tone.

"I'll get it back."

"Promise? Because, you know, everyone has a bad habit of forgetting these kinds of things."

"I promise. Trust me, I don't wanna lose all that work we put into it."

Tilly nodded her head, and the two of them headed off to transfiguration.

"Did you even finish your summer stuff?"

"Got it done before breakfast."

"You know you can actually do it during the summer."

"Why would I do that?"

Tilly rolled her eyes. When Professor McGonagall walked into the classroom, she requested that the class all put their homework on her desk.

"It's good to see that most of the summer work was handed in," McGonagall said as she looked around to the students who didn't hand anything in.

"Take out your textbooks, and turn to page 13 on turning beetles to buttons."

Tilly started reading intently though the textbook while Diana absentmindedly did the same. They eventually moved on to actually trying to change the beetles. As always Tilly got it almost instantly. Diana eventually got bored and started doodling in her notebook.

When class ended, Tilly made her way over to McGonagall.

"Professor?"

"How can I help you, Miss Blake." The Professor said in a happy tone. Tilly was one of McGonagall's favourite students, and she didn't do much to hide it.

"I was just wondering if anything has changed in terms of our club idea?"

"I assume that it's still just the two of you?" McGonagall asked, and Tilly nodded her head.

"Then I'm afraid not. You still need five members and a teacher sponsor to become an official school group."

"Do you think there are any teachers that would be interested?" Tilly asked.

"I would recommend trying Professor Ito or Professor Sinistra when she returns next year."

"Doesn't Professor Ito hate being involved in 'school affairs'?" Diana asked.

"Perhaps if you make a good case, he'll reconsider."

The two of them thanked the Professor and left for their next class.

"We can't keep waiting around in case McGonagall suddenly becomes available," Diana said as they walked to Potions.

"I know, but I don't trust most of the other teachers. And the ones I do are just like McGonagall. Too many other responsibilities."

"We'll keep trying. There has to be at least one teacher with nothing else to do."

Before Diana knew what happened most of the week had just passed by. It was mostly just trying to get back into the swing of school. When Friday rolled around, Diana found herself sitting at the Gryffindor eating breakfast with Harry and Ron.

"What have we got today?" Harry asked Ron.

"Double Potions with the Slytherins," said Ron.

"I'd be careful during Potions you two," Diana said while munching on a piece of jam covered toast. "By the end of my first potions lesson, we had one kid bawling her eyes out, and another nearly pass out."

"Snape's Head of Slytherin House. They say he always favours them we'll be able to see if it's true."

"Most of them anyway." Diana thought to herself. Tilly was decent at the subject but found Snape very intimidating. As a result, she was too scared to ask him questions or speak up during class and her marks suffered because of it.

"Wish McGonagall favoured us," said Harry.

Diana managed to lose quite a few house points in Potions, but considering that she didn't really care about the house cup, it hardly fazed her. Besides all she did was smile and answer Professor Snape. But she lost points anyway because of 'tone' It was a shame that Professor Snape didn't like Diana. As much Snape wanted to, even he couldn't deny that Diana had an extraordinary amount of skill when it came to Potions. It was the only subject in which she got the top mark for in her year. (It helped to have an uncle who worked in the potion business for most of his life, and was more than happy to teach Diana everything he knew.)

All of her other classes were pretty uneventful for the most part. The teachers tried to remain fair, so there wasn't really a reason for Diana to give them cheek like she did to Snape. qWhen the mail arrived, Diana grabbed a letter that was likely sent by her father. She opened it up to see that her dad had sent her an update of how he and uncle Hector were doing. Along with her muggle homework for the week.

Math… bleh!

"Hey, Diana?" Harry said.

"Yep?"

"You wanna come with me to Hagrid's?"

Diana looked up from her own letters and gave Harry a nod.

Diana later met up with Harry and Ron in the courtyard. The three of them made their way down to Hagrid's Hut. Diana had only visited the place a couple of times, and that was mostly to find Tilly, who was delivering something to Hagrid or making small talk with him.

When they got there, they heard scrabbling noises and barks from inside before Hagrid opened the door.

"Back, Fang, back."

Hagrid let them in, and Diana immediately made her way over to Fang.

"Hello, Puppy!"

Fang started jumping around and wagging his tail in excitement.

"He's not really a puppy," Ron said.

"All dogs are puppies, isn't that right Fang?" Diana said in a silly voice while snatching Fang behind the ears.

"This is Ron and Diana," Harry told Hagrid.

"I've seen Diana around with Ron's brothers. Feels like I spent half me life chasin' yer twin brothers away from the forest." Hagrid told Ron.

The cakes that Hagrid offered them were as tough as rocks. Diana kept trying to bite into one. Determined to see how much it would take to break one.

Harry eventually started talking about his first lesson with Snape.

"The man really hates children. Don't know why he became a teacher." Diana said with her arms crossed.

"But he seemed to really hate me," Harry said.

"Rubbish!" said Hagrid. "Why should he?"

Diana looked over to Hagrid who seemed to be trying to avoid looking Harry directly in the eyes.

"How's yer brother Charlie and his friend, Piper?" Hagrid asked Ron. "I liked the two of them a lot, great with animals."

Diana remembered Charlie and Piper from her first year at school. They were in their final year, and honestly, she didn't really interact with them as much as she did with Tulip. From the couple of times she did meet them they seemed really nice. Bit eccentric, but still lovely.

"Hagrid!" said Harry, "that Gringotts break-in happened on my birthday! It might've been happening while we were there!"

Okay, Hagrid was definitely trying to avoid Harry's glaze that time.

"Mind if I have a look?" Diana said while shuffling her chair over so that they could read it at the same time.

GRINGOTTS BREAK-IN LATEST

The article outlined how someone had broken into Gringotts at the end of July. The bankers assured that nothing was taken due to the vault having already been emptied beforehand.

Later on, when they were making their way back up to the castle, Diana was still trying to crack one of the many rock cakes that Hagrid insisted they take.

"Are these things made out of concrete?" Diana jokingly asked Harry.

When she looked over to him, Harry looked distracted. What was going on in that head of his?

The classes I've made in this chapter are similar to what I had in high school. All the kids were split into two random classes (unless you were a high achiever). I happened to get stuck with a girl who I hated for three years in a row. Less to say Harry probably gotta be in a similar situation with Draco.

Also, does anyone find the idea of Fred and George being the only goobers in school to have any kind of map weird? And on another note who can relate to being too scared of some teachers to actually ask them stuff during class? Because I was always afraid of how certain teachers would react and would just try to stay as quiet as possible.
