Back to Hogwarts
It had been almost a week since the incident, and Blaire soon found the end of holidays was near.
Blaire had finished her enrichment assignment for Professor Flitwick about the importance of safety when using new charms. She finished the recipe and the effects of the potion they had to invent for Snape's holiday assignment. Blaire came up with a potion allowing your lips to turn a chosen colour for a specific time without having to apply lip stains.
The last of her homework was a history of magic assignment, researching one of the founders of Hogwarts.
~
It was the last day before Blaire, Melanie, Paul and Penelope would be traveling to Kings Cross station.
Blaire packed up her new wooden chest with her new cauldron, potion ingredients, clothes and wand. She put a locking charm on it, and set it in the new SUV. She searched her closet for what to wear, and finally decided on black close fit pants, a white blouse, and a red, pink and white striped cloak.
"Mel, can I borrow that cute sparkly hip belt?"
"Yep, here." Mel said as she handed the belt to her cousin.
"Thanks."
"No problem."
~
"Darling, wake up," Reese Weasley said in a sing-song voice.
Blaire yawned and rubbed her eyes,
"Why, what time is it?"
"Precisely 9:00!"
"Oh, okay, I'll get in the shower then."
Blaire stumbled out of bed, and jumped into the shower.
After standing in the hot water for fifteen minutes, Blaire got out, dried her long brown hair, got dressed, and put on some lip gloss and mascara. She put her hair up with a barrette in the back, and made her bed.
She went into her study, picked out Study of Recent Developments in Wizardry, and walked downstairs.
"Wewre awre ywou gwowing?" Charlize wanted to know.
Blaire picked her little sister up,
"To school."
"Twan I twome twoo?"
"Sorry hunn, not till your older."
Charlie then walked into the room,
"Well, your mothers are taking you, so better say goodbye now!"
He leaned over to hug is daughter,
"Have a great second term, and you better take that Quidditch cup, cause Gryffindor hasn't won since Harry was there."
"Well, if I hadn't been in the hospital wing for tryouts we would've had it for the three past years."
"Excuses, excuses," he said with a laugh.
Blaire just looked at her stocky-built father, and wondered how it was possible for him to be the amazing seeker she's been told he was.
Mel walked downstairs,
"At least now we're both on the team, so it's gonna be impossible to lose!" Mel said in superior way.
Uncle Bill looked at her in a mocking sort of way,
"What, it's true!" Mel said defensively.
"We'll see when the trophy is handed out." Bill said.
Angelina came in to say her last goodbyes,
"You better kill Slytherin, because I've heard they've been winning the cup, such a sad thing to hear you know," she said dramatically.
"Oh we will," Blaire said with an evil grin, "Dana Malfoy is definitely going to be looking at the Hospital wing if I have anything to do with it!" Mel said.
"That girl makes me so mad, did you know she bought her way into the team, but that doesn't matter, 'cause those brooms are crap anyway. Nimbus 3000s, those aren't even close to the Firebolts our team has." Blaire acknowledged.
"Okay girls, we're ready," Aunt Fleur said as she buttoned the last button of her cloak, let's go!"
~
The Weasleys girls pulled up an hour later at 11:00 to Kings Cross. They unpacked their chests and loaded their trolleys, and found their way to platform 9¾.
Blaire and Mel found their way to the front compartment where the other prefects were sitting. They took an extra large compartment where their Quidditch team could sit.
Soon came the other two chasers, Jenna Lake and Ashley Henderson, Andrew and Pete's younger sis. Then came the keeper, Jessica Nguyen, and finally the beater twins arrived, Harriett and Margo. This was the first year ever the team was all girls, and the boys sure were not happy about it.
The girls started talking about their Christmas', all confirming they has received new Personalized Firebolts, when Dana Malfoy walked by their compartment,
"Well isn't that lovely," she sneered, "there can't be too many expectations for a team of all girls."
"Oh but there is Malfoy," Jenna said sarcastically.
"Pity to have a name like Malfoy isn't it girls?" Mel said half sympathetic, "if your anything like your grandfather, we might have to get Uncle Harry to give you a talking to!"
All the girls in the compartment laughed,
"Or maybe I should give it to you myself," Blaire began, "stay out of our way Malfoy, and we'll stay out of yours. Oh, and as for Quidditch, I don't know why you have the nerve to insult us, when we were not the ones who bought themselves a place on the team now were we?"
Dana turned and walked away to see the other Slytherins'.
The girls began to laugh uncontrollably.
"Did you see her face?!" Margo wanted to know.
Ashley shoved her face out of the compartment, "Oh Dana dear, do you realize if you keep your face like that, it might stay that way, forever?"
The girls laughed even more.
~
Soon it was time to get into the Hogwarts robes, and clean up their compartments. They shoved the last of the sweets in their pockets, and reluctantly walked into the icy winds.
"Ah Hogsmeade!" Jenna said happily.
"How I've missed thou!" Jessica said in a Shakespearian voice.
"C'mon, let's get the first carriage." Blaire suggested.
~
The Great Hall was warm and inviting when the seven girls stepped inside, and all the Gryffindor fifth years came to greet them.
Andrew was there, and so was Pete, waiting for the mob of happy students to thin.
"Andy!" Blaire squealed, before running to hug her boyfriend, "Merry Christmas!"
"Merry Christmas to you too. Merry Christmas Mel."
"Thanks Andy, you too," Mel said before hugging him.
~
It was almost twelve before the fifth years decided they should put an end to the Exploding snap tournament they were holding in the Gryffindor common room.
"'Night Andy, 'night Pete, sees you guys in the morning!"
All seven girls from the Quidditch team retired to their chambers,
"You know we have practice tomorrow, McGonagall booked the field, wanting to know how we are holding up." Blaire remembered.
"She says that there are a few scouts who want to watch us play." Mel reminded her team mates.
"I don't know who would want to watch seven girls play, probably some old member of the Quidditch team, you know," Jenna said with a yawn.
"Well G'night all!" Harriett yelled.
"G'night," they all said in unison.
