It's just a game, a fun game, but still just a game she thought. "Hullo" she said, sitting down next to Morgian, only she acted normally. By this time Morgian had found out about Gabrielle's fall during the game. Everyone knew about it after the game, news traveled very quickly in Hogwarts, then she told Morgian everything form her point of view (with lots of giggling, eye rolling, and plenty of sighs). They left the dining hall, and walked out to the library laughing. Gabrielle bumped into Flammel, who was holding scrolls and a stack of books (obviously coming from the library) he gave out a girly scream and through everything into the air. Looking back at it, Gabrielle would have laughed, but the look of pure terror told her otherwise. She tried comforting him, and started picking the things he dropped with her wand. She wouldn't take her eyes off of him, curious of what he was so nervous about. He scurried off down the hall after she placed the books in his hands. Still with her eyes on him she asked Morgian "What's wrong with him?" "Oh. He's been like that for a while," Morgian answered her. "Odd. I've never seen him like that" she said, as they walked into the library. "Oy Orwood!" she heard a familiar voice from one end of the room, all she had to do is follow Madame Prince's scolding glance and she found the source. Predictable she thought, it was Potter, then she saw him coming over to her. The chase begins; she knew what that look meant, it meant trouble for her. She was glad she hadn't brought her bag. Gabrielle went behind a bookcase in a very quick walk; she was looking for a specific book. She scanned the shelf she was in front of and pulled out a heavy book that took her down a foot with it, but she recovered and leaned it against the bookshelf's edge the cover read Hogwarts, a History. "Bingo" Gabrielle said to herself. "My thoughts exactly" she heard someone say behind her, She was being followed, what next? Gabrielle ignored James and walked to a table, he followed. She opened up the book, and he peered over her shoulder. She mumbled "The structure of Hogwarts.the stories. No, no. Aha!" she said, stopping at a chapter Rooms of Hogwarts!" She smiled and looked at it, maybe if she ignored him he wouldn't ask. She scanned the pages for any information. James was still looking at her from behind her, but he was smiling at her desperate attempt to get rid of him, he looked over her shoulder and asked a couple of stupid questions, which she ignored. Gabrielle heaved the heavy book into her arms and walked over to Madame Prince's desk. "So Gabby." James said, she knew were this was going, and she felt her whole body go numb. Save me she thought. "Gabrielle. Its due in a week." Madame Prince said, still not forgetting what happened with the amigus book.

Morgain and Gabrielle walked into the Three Broom sticks, and heard laughter coming from students inside. Everyone turned to look particularly at Gabrielle, smiling. She didn't like those smiles, not one bit. She walked in cautiously and heard Professor Flitwick say "Don't worry lad, there is no doubt that she'll say yes after you sweep her off her feet like I told you." He said to James, while doing a weird motion with his hands. Gabrielle figured who it was that James wanted to 'sweep of her feet,' it was her; she clenched her teeth together and squinted her eyes. James looked incredibly Can't believe this is happening. She thought, and even worse the room was filled mainly with Slytherins. Right after Flitwick finished giving his advice to James he strolled out after the teachers, who were concealing their laughter like others in the room were. Gabrielle looked back at Morgian; she was shaking furiously, obviously holding back laughter too. She didn't want to look up when she started hearing the Slytherins reciting what Flitwick said to James, some of them edging him on to do it now. James had gone back to the table that he had been sitting at. It was over crowded with his Gryffindor friends; he was extremely popular after all. Most of them Gabrielle was friends with; she always did get along with the same people James did. Only, she didn't normally get along with James. Morgian pulled her over to the table she tried her best to get away from him. Then she heard Snape call to James.

"Going to be tough Potter. Even the mudblood won't have you ask her to the ball" he said while the other Slytherins in the room laughed at heartily. James looked at him and whipped out his wants, and Sirius After him ready to back him up.

"Say that to my face slime ball!" he said, clearly furious. Gabrielle hated this

All of this because he made fun of me? She groaned. I hate this! I hate this I hate this! James had shot a curse at Snape, but he cursed and stood up with oozing sores on his face and shot another insult at him. When the lady that owned the three Broomsticks saw what happened she kicked them out instantly; Gabrielle followed them out, along with the many Slytherins that wanted to see the fight. James and Sirius were standing across form Snape, who had his friend behind him. There was a huge crowd around them; all of the Hogwarts students who were in the three broomsticks came out, leaving the pub deserted. Remeus and Pettigrew were behind James and Sirius, while Morgian tried to keep Gabriele far enough from ripping her hair out in aggravation, but she couldn't hold her back any longer. Gabrielle interfered like she always did with these things. She blocked a curse that was shot at Snape and stood in front of James telling him to cut it out. Snape while making James angry and making the Slytherins shout rude remarks about her saving his butt and that he should sweep her off her feet for that. "Correction" He said smiling "she saved your butt." He looked around Gabrielle (who was shouting at him) to see Snape's reaction. That made it all the worse. Sirius helped James out and jinxed Snape, who attempt to shoot a curse at Gabrielle and James. James got around Gabrielle and continued with Snape. Snape was on the ground, he had now grown an alligator's tail form one of Sirius's curses. He used the counter jinx on himself and the tail disappeared. He was furious, and saw now that Gabrielle was trying to stop Sirius and James at the same time. He took it to his advantage. He smiled an evil smile and shot a curse at Gabrielle. She had heard him say it and whipped around to block the curse, but James had started to go in front of her. Hoping to block it himself, and gain some respect from Gabrielle. Instead he didn't go fast enough and now Gabrielle couldn't block it and she got hit with it. She fell into Pettigrew and Remeus. Peter fell backwards from impact, but Remeus Held her up from the back. Morgain ceased the moment and shot a curse at snape. James helped Gabrielle up. She felt like she had been kicked in the stomach. She held her stomach with one hand and with her other she held her wand, her face turned obscene colors and she pointed her wand at her stomach and whispered the counter curse. She shot a furious glance at James, and walked away with the rest of them.

This time they got away with fighting because they managed to pull everyone away from the Slytherins before a teacher showed up. "That was a close one" James said aloud. They were behind the candy shop, which was right beside the three broomsticks. Gabrielle was furious and wouldn't look James in the eye she wanted to get out of there, incase James did decide to sweep her off of her feet like Flitwick suggested. He wouldn't though, the look on her face told him otherwise. She looked for a way to get her and Morgian away from them, but ended up being dragged to an old bar, that was nothing like the three broomsticks. First of all it was called Hogs Head, and it was filthy. It wasn't as bad as the room James, Sirius and Gabrielle were fixing up but it was still covered in dirt. Once they walked in they all started coughing, but went in all the same. Gabrielle cleaned the chair she was about to sit in, and she was handed a butterbeer. James looked at her, and she looked away attempting to stop looking into his eyes. Almost as if Afraid she would be cast into a spell from looking into his eyes for too long. His eyes were caring and sweet. She was angry with him and wanted it to stay that way. Looking in his eyes, she feared, would make it otherwise. "You know you shouldn't be naive like that." He said to her. "Yeah." Sirius added. "Snape is going to curse you weather or not you're trying to save his sorry- he stopped when Gabrielle looked at him. Her look wasn't it's normal smiling self. Lets leave it at that. "Just be careful." James said to her thoughtfully. She looked at Morgian for backup. She seemed to agree with James and Sirius by the look on her face. Gabrielle folded her arms childishly and looked out the filthy window while the rest of them talked, muttering "I can take care of myself." She knew James smiled. She ignored it and didn't take her eyes of the window. Some talking was going on, but Gabrielle hardly contributed. After she noticed Morgian wasn't talking either she watched her but then started to pretend she was interested in the conversation they were having (eyes still on Morgian). Morgain was listening intensively to something, but Gabrielle couldn't make out what. It just seemed to make her upset. The others caught on that Morgian wasn't paying attention and all looked at Morgian. "We've been trying to obtain contact with your brain Morgain for the past two minutes. Where did you fly off to this time?" Remeus told Morgian after she had finished listening to whatever she was listening to moments before. "None of your business." Morgain shot back and smirked. "You can be such a snotty girl sometimes." Sirius teased her. Morgian smiled., then out of no ware Sirius asked "Have you had any nightmares lately?" he seemed concerned too, maybe there was something Gabrielle was missing. Yes, the dream must have been horrible, but Morgian looked uncomfortable about it. Gabrielle saw her face when Sirius asked her that question. "No." she Morgian said awkwardly.

"Good." Sirius said softly. Morgain looked up at him, and they both stared at each other for a while, and the conversation at the table stopped again and everyone stared at the two of them.

"What was all that?" James asked them both. Morgain looked furious with herself, and quickly got up from her chair and said. "Ahhh...I gotta go. Byes." If Morgian was confused, Gabrielle was a thousand times more
