The three of them walked to the Common room. Most people were already in
bed, nice and dry. She put on her pajamas and slid into her bed, smiling
out of the comfort and talked to Jamie and Shannon until she yawned, and
fell asleep.
In the morning she woke up early, as she normally did, but she spared the other fourth year girls and didn't meditate, in case she did something weird. She got ready slowly and thought as she did it to make up for it. One by one the girls in their dorm woke up and greeted her and got ready themselves. She packed up her bag and left, hoping the bag wouldn't break from all of the books in it.
As she entered the grand hall she felt a rush. There were students eating, drinking looking at schedules and there was a buzz of excitement. She loved this action. She lived for action, but she did always want a little more than she had. She sat next to a fifth year on the Gryffindor Quidditch team. He was a Beater on the team, and he wasn't half bad, and she always liked his company.
"Quidditch through the ages" she read aloud. "Getting ready for the
season eh? Quigley" said looking at the book Dean Quigley had been
reading. Dean had dark brown, pin straight hair that almost covered
his eyes. He was well built, as all beaters normally were.
"Yep. Have you, I heard the Slitherin team has a new line up and
everything. There looking for a win this year"
"Well they wont get it. You can trust me on that one, you know very
well Williams will stop at nothing to get a win for Gryffindor,
especially after last year. Believe me, Slytherin will not get a win
this year." Robert Williams was there team captain and their other
Beater.
"You still didn't answer my question. Did you practice at all over the summer?"
"Of course I did, I wouldn't hear the end it if I didn't" she said smiling "it was hard though, had to find a place away from muggles and everything. ". McGonagall had suddenly dropped Gabrielle's schedule beside her plate and she went to look at what class she had first.
"Did you heard anything about the new Defense Against The Dark Arts Teacher?" she asked before she had a good look at the schedule.
"What, you mean professor Gurrow?" Malcolm Windsor asked sitting on the opposite side of Dean.
"No I mean the new teacher."
"He's taken the Potions teachers spot and Gurrow is teaching Defense against the dark arts." He said, looking at Gabrielle through his long blonde hair. She didn't understand how he could see her, it was up to his chin, and covered his eyes.
"Really? That's odd. I never knew Gurrow wanted the Defense against the Dark arts job." She said looking at her schedule. There it was. Her first class said Double Potions, Nicholas Flammel.
"She has ever since she came to teach at Hogwarts" Quigley explained. " And I used to like that class so much" Quigley said sarcastically, remembering the classes he had with Gurrow last year. She was the strictest teacher in the school, but only to students in other houses than her own (Slitherin).
"Hope this Flammel knows his stuff" Malcolm Said. She looked curiously at Flammel and back at her schedule.
"I definitely hope so too" she added.
