Disclaimer: I own none of the Harry Potter characters...if I did I wouldn't be writing this would I?
The first 2 days of lessons was hard. Nicole accidently cursed rofessor Flitwick and turned her piece of paper to a snake that but one of the students. Lynn seemed to be having trouble as well. Since she wasn't a witch everything just surrounded her in smoke and a couple times she set her desk, or the one occasion , a student, on fire.
"Is this going to get any easier?" Nicole asked Hermione after getting a detention from Professor McGonagall for the snake.
"Yes. You just have to get used to it. If you want, I can help you out. Lynn too if she wants. Where is she anyway?"
"She wants to meet Draco Malfoy." Nicole said.
"Why on earth would she want to meet him?" Hermione asked shocked.
"Who knows. Anyway, you wouldn't be able to help Lynn anyway." Nicole replied.
"Why not?" Hermione asked.
"Can you keep a secret?" asked Nicole in a whisper.
"Of course...whats up?" Hermione said, curiously.
Nicole pulled Hermione into a corner. " Lynn isn't supposed to be here. She's a muggle, snuck in with me because she wanted to see Hogwarts. You see, there are books in the muggle world about your experiences at Hogwarts. I have no idea who is writing them, but they are.
Hermione stood back completly shocked. "Well, she's going to get caught, especially if she can't do magic or anything. But I promise, I won't say a word. Not even to Ron and Harry."
Her detention was absolutely horrible. She had to scrub the bedpans and now she was exhausted. Harry started talking a little bit more to her but she was still getting strange loooks from him....as well as Ron.
The next day they headed for DADA. Nicole was talking to Harry and Ron trying to make better friends with them. They were in a discussion on quidditch when they reached the DADA room. They got in and found their seats. Professor Lupin came in and went to the head of the class and began to do roll call. As he got to Nicole's name he stopped. He looked at her and got sort of wide eyed and pale. Then, he just shrugged it off and kept going.
*Whats up with these people?* Nicole thought.
Nicole and Lynn were making their way back to the transfiguration room, Lynn upset because Draco wouldn't talk to her.
"Don't see how you can think he would" Nicole said.
"I can dream can't I?" Lynn asked.
They got in the common room and saw Harry and Ron looking at the same black book as before. They noticed her come in and looked at her again, but turned away quickly. Nicole, rather fed up with the strange stares went up right behind the, and grabbed the book.
"Alright, whats in here that makes you keep staring at me like I'm supposed to be dead or something." Nicole said. Harry and Ron tried to stop her from grabbing the book, but they didn't succeed. Nicole looked at the page and gasped, dropping the book from her hands.
hehe R/R! Thanks a bunch!
