By dinner, Sarah Foruhee and I had become pretty good friends. In a short period of time, Sarah Kamsel and I would be pretty good enemies. We met up with Harry, Rod, Harmony, Jeremy, and Carmen and walked down to the Great Hall. Jeremy and Carmen seemed to be getting along really well. Extremely well. Wanna hear a bit fo it? Of course you do! "So, your a gymnast, eh?" Jeremy asked Carmen. She nodded with a smile. "I love watching gymnastics," Jeremy said. "Probably only because they wear tight leotards," laughed Rod. Carmen rolled her eyes but I couldn't help but laugh. Rod smiled at me but that's a different story. Carmen and Jeremy continued. "I love your accent. I've always wanted to travel to Australia," Carmen somethinged. "Well, you should come visit me someday," Jeremy suggested. Oh gosh, they had just met today and he was talking about her visiting him. I wanted to go to Australia, too. Did I mention Harmony's jealous looks? Ohhh, I sense DRAMA! We entered the Great Hall and Carmen went off to the Hufflepuffs and we went to the Gryffindor first year table. So this dinner was better than lunch. I like spaghetti. Tonight my conversation was limited to Harmony and Jeremy. "So Chanelle," Jeremy said between bites. "You've got a special friends there," I knew who he was talking about. Carmen of course. I just nodded and piled the Parmesan on my spaghetti. As Jeremy and I were talking, Harmony was just staring and smiling at him and also nodding her head at everything he said. "You gonna finish that, Harms?" Jeremy asked her. I don't know where the nickname came from but Harmony hadn't touched her food at all. She nodded, smiled, and pushed her food towards him. "So Jeremy, do you play Quidditch?" I asked. "I love Quidditch but I can't play at all," explained Jeremy. "Yeah, same here," butted in Harmony. "Quidditch is my absolute favorite sport but I stink at it," Jeremy gave Harmony as strange look. "I thought you were Muggle-born," said a confused Jeremy. Harmony started to stutter as I smiled. We were all interrupted by a scream and a thud. "You *very rude word*! Agh!" a shrilled high voice screamed, directed at me. Next to my chair was Sarah Kamsel sprawled out on the floor, looking up with menancing eyes. "You did it on purpose!" she continued to yell. "I wish I did it on purpose, but I didn't. I should've though," I said with a grin. My comment didn't help the situation. "That's IT!" she yelled as she pulled out her wand. "Petrificus Totalus!" she cried. I moved my head slightly to the right and the beam went right by my head. I don't think it hit anybody. I hope at least. My first reaction was to take out my wand but when I had it in my hand, I realized that I diidn't really know any spells. She continued to shoot spells at me but luckily, she had bad aim. They all missed me, except one. "Ow!" I yelled as I fell on the ground. As far as I could tell, it was a spell that caused slight pain in the ankles. "Hairous!" a deeper voice said and a beam hit Sarah at her eyebrow. Then the funniest thing happened. Everyone burst into laughter as Sarah Kamsel's eyebrows connected together and started growing out. Now she had a big, bushy monobrow (or unibrow, depends on your preference). I noticed something to my left and as I turned, I saw Harry with his wand pointing at Sarah with a wide grin on his face, like he was trying not to laugh but couldn't control it. "Did you do that spell?" I asked him quietly. I don't know why I did quietly. "Yeah," he said with a grin. "Thanks," I gratituded while looking up at his eyes. I saw something different in his eyes though. The kind a two year old has when he does something wrong. He looked so young but guilty. "Ow," I cried. I was interrupted by my thoughts by Harmony hitting me in the back. "You ok?" she asked. I just nodded and with one last look at Harry and wink (don't ask), and of course a smirk at Sarah Kamsel, I left the Great Hall. I really needed to think. * * * * * I came to the picture that acted as a door to the commons. "Passsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss s-" "SHUT UP!" I yelled at the picture who couldn't get "word" out. "Tawny Foul," The almost naked man started to cry as he opened up and I walked in. I sighed as I went up to our commons and turned on the smalll TV there. "And welcome back to WRL. Today's premier video is "Wizards (Remix)" by Witchney Spears. it features Songrell Filliams in the snazzy remix. Let's hit it." said the little host guy. It looked like the wizard's version of TRL. The video started with a boy running up to a castle, trying to get through the security wizard. As the beat started, Rod came running in. "Yes," he said while gasping for air. "I didn't miss it! he sat next to me starring at the TV. Witchney came out dressed in robes similiar to those of Sarah Kamsel and started to sing. I spotted you wnad waving made all the witches stare you wand and your nice robes that snitchy hair I said wave that wand my whole magic wants you tell your witches you'll be back I wanna see your wand can do What will take for to just cast a spell on me Not trying to sound conceited but we are meant to be Your a snitchy wizard, I'm a nice witch let's turn this dance floor into own little Quidditch Pitch I had to admit, the song was pretty catchy so far. I had a feeling that Rod didn;t care about the beat by the lyrics but only about the appearance of Witchney Spears. More people started to enter and wanted to meet all of them. A group of four girls came in. I assumed they were the ones from the other 1st year dorm. "Hey!" I said to them enthusiacally. They just looked at me. Well, one of them spoke. "Hi, I'm Robbu Evans," said the girl I remembered from Sorting. The one with the short hair and sagging pants. "Chanelle Tyson," I said and locked at all the others. "Katie Openque," that girl said whose father is an Quidditch player. She didn't look like a Quidditch player, though. She looked more like a cheerleader.. "I'm Sauna Damon," another girl said. I smiled, mostly to keep from laughing at Sauna's name. Her parents could've just named her hottub. "And I'm Jamie Snow," the last girl said reluctantly. She sounded stuck up. "You look like Jamie Lynn Spears," I said and this girl looked just like her. "Augh, everyone says that, but I'm even more prettier than her," was the snobby reply that came from Jamie. "Well, being prettier thatn Jamie Lynn Spears isn't much and is definately nothing to brag about," I said and that came out wrong. I should've kept that to myself. The girl looked like she was going to explode. "Hey Harmony!" I yelled out to my friend who had just entered. I practically ran over to her to get away. "Hi," Harmony said quietly. I thought that was odd. She seemed sad or something. "What's up?" I asked concernly. She just shrugged and started to go to our room. "Where are you going?" I yelled to her. "I'm tired. Going to sleep," she said. I glanced at my watch. It was 7:30 pm. Rather early for a 13 year old to go to bed. We hung out the rest of the night. I met Timothy Ranken, Drake Ellings (a BIG perv, I already don't like him that much), John Doe (who hates everything to do with lawn care), and Sean Lewis (that geeky guy). Timothy goes by Tim and he's ok, John and is my bud now. We don't show it though, but we are tight, yo. Sarah had the single of Quidditch's Every Wizard so I listened to that some in our room. I don't really think Harmony was awake. The lights cut off by themselves at 11:30 and Sarah, Liz and we weren't expecting that. We took our showers in the dark, got in our pajamas in the dark and got in the bed at midnight. Sleeping!
