Author's Note: Chapter 4! I decided to start writing it before the other
even got reviews! I know, WOW! Anyway, winter break! Yes! This is even more
horrible if that is possible (j/k, maybe boring though). Enjoy. R/R. Sarah

Tryouts and some other stuff
"Okay. People, people," Professor Pollyanna said, trying the get everyone's attention. "This is what will happen. I will be calling names from my list and then, if I call your name, you will come up onto the stage and do what I tell you to from there. I may ask you to either read a part, sing or something like that. I will be posting a list of people that I need to see again after rehearsal. Remember, if you are called back it doesn't mean that you will necessarily get the role. Oh, and I almost forgot, everyone who tries out and doesn't get a lead role but still wishes to be apart of the play will get a part of some sort. Now, let's get started. Professors Dumbledore and Sprout will also be helping me. Okay, up on the stage I want Janny Jokki (a/n I just picked a name, sorry people my imagination is terrible tonight) to come up and read for us one of the three girls' parts." And that went on and on and on for about four hours until, "Okay people! Robyn will go last before lunch break and then we will start back up with Ginny Weasley.
Robyn went up and acted a bit, she was trying out for the role of the dust maid because she claimed that she "didn't sing." Ginny watched Robyn and thought that she did a pretty decent job acting- better than a lot of people. Then, Robyn was done and they started to talk on their way to lunch.
"How did I do?" Robyn asked, "Honestly?"
"Honestly," Ginny said, "I think that you have a chance for something. Prof. Pollyanna was muttering something under her breath."
"Great." Robyn said in a sort of sarcastic way. "So. what about you miss- I'm-next- and -I won't be nervous?"
"What about me?" asked Ginny slyly.
"Are you nervous at all?"
"Nope. I figure that whatever happens, happens."
"And what will happen will be that you get a good role."
"Nah, maybe just a little one if I'm lucky. I mean, I'm not that great at acting or singing. I only even read plays during the summer because I have nothing else to do."
"If you say so," said Robyn, not convinced that Ginny was telling the truth.
"I say so." Ginny said, "Now let's eat."
After lunch, they went back into the audition room. Ginny looked at the room, less people were there than before because once you auditioned, you didn't need to stay, though lots of people stayed. Robyn pulled Ginny over into a seat that had the best look at Thomas Hawsy, a Gryffindor seventh year who Robyn considered the hottest guy at Hogwarts.
"Okay people," Professor Pollyanna said, "Ginny Weasley, please come up." Ginny walked up. "Miss Weasley, it says here that you are trying for either singing, acting, or both, correct?"
"Yes."
"Good. What part?"
"I didn't really have one in mind so I just prepared for Mrs. Potts."
"I see. Why not Belle?"
"I thought that there would be so many people trying out for that, that it might be nice to be a little different." After she finished, Ginny could have sworn that Professor Dumbledore's eyes twinkled just at her but Professor Pollyanna continued on.
"Very well. If you could say that piece that you are singing and the section that you have prepared, please begin."
"Thank you," Ginny said. "I will be singing 'Tale as Old as Time' and also acting from the same scene."
"Thank you," said Professor Pollyanna. So Ginny started to act out the scene, something that caught most people's attention. She seemed so full of energy and life. Then, the song started, the people who weren't paying attention before started to pay attention. She sang brilliantly! When she finished, people started to clap and cheer. Ginny was astonished! They had only done that to one other person that whole day! And that person was snotty Meri Ellen from Hufflepuff who was known for her good voice and bad attitude. 'Why would they cheer for her?' Ginny thought.
"Thank you," said Professor Pollyanna as Ginny exited the stage.
"You were brilliant!" Robyn whispered excitedly to Ginny as she sat back down. "You never even told me that you have done this before!"
"I haven't." Ginny said.
"Well, you can expect a part."
"Maybe, probably something like the Wardrobe then."
"You'll see." Robyn promised. "Well, what now?"
"Let's go to Hogsmede!" Ginny suggested.
"Sure!" So the girls left to spend the rest of their afternoon at Hogsmede. On their way out of Honeyduke's, they ran into somebody.
"M. Monet!" Ginny exclaimed.
"Ah, Virginie Weasley. How are you my dear? And who is this?" He said pointing at Robyn.
"I'm fine thank you. This is my best friend Robyn."
"Well, it was nice seeing you Mademoiselle Virginie. Pleased to meet you, Mademoiselle Robyn. Maybe you could come to a lesson sometime, I'm sure that you are an excellent dancer."
"Actually, I have danced quite a bit."
"Wonderful! Do come with Mlle. Virginie sometime. I think that Mlle Angelina mentioned someone new coming and needing a dancing partner, although that person can only come once a week. I will contact Mlle. Virginie about that so then she can let you know. Au revoir Mlle.s." He finished and left.
"Okay." Robyn said.
"I know." Ginny said. "He's like that. So I guess that I will be seeing you once a month at dancing lessons for mystery man."
"Well I guess so." Robyn said. "Now, let's go and get a butterbeer." So they went to the Pub for a Butterbeer. After they walked in, someone called over to them.
"Ginny!" They turned around and saw no other than Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Robyn and Ginny walked over to where they were sitting. "Come sit with us," Hermione suggested.
Robyn and Ginny exchanged looks. "Sure," Ginny said. So that sat down at their table and ordered Butterbeers.
"So what did you do today?" Ron asked them.
"Play tryouts." Robyn said.
"How did it go?" Hermione asked.
"Robyn was good." Ginny said.
"But Ginny was superb." Robyn butted.
Ginny, not wanting to talk about that told them about their meeting with M. Monet.
"Could he be talking about Jamie?" Harry asked Hermione and Ron.
"Maybe," Ron said, "I heard that he was back."
"Who's Jamie?" Robyn asked.
"Oh, he is a top guy in the investigator world. Fred and George have done him a couple of favors from time to time."
"Really?" Robyn asked.
"Yup, well we will just have to see, won't we?" Ron said with a wink," Well, we have to go but it was nice talking to you."
"See you Thursday," Harry and Hermione said and then the three of them left.
"Hmm." Robyn said, "I hope that he's cute."
"I'm sure that he is. Now, we have to go back and see if the list is up." So they finished their butterbeers and went back up to Hogwarts.
A/N: That's all for now. I want to put this up and get reviews but I'm also starting the next chapter. Hopefully this will make up for the long time without anything and maybe I will be able to finish at least 2 more chapters before winter break is up and the story will be on it's way again.
