Chapter 6-Back to school
The trip to Hogwarts seemed pretty long, with the vain girl fixing her make- up once every fifteen minutes. The trolley-lady pushed the trolley in to sell all kinds of delicious snacks. Harry had bought all the different kinds of sweets to share with his buddies. He did offer the girl some, but she just screwed up her nose and turned away, saying, "I don't eat this kind of.cheap stuff."
Ten minutes before they reached, they were reminded by an invinsible speaker to put on their Hogwarts's robes. Ron, who seemed very happy to finally have a brand-new robe, not second-handed, quickly slipped it on and gave Harry a smug smile. Harry took his own crumpled robes and wore it. The other two girls were given some privacy while they changed.
The train finally stopped after the long journey and Harry, Ron and Hermione heaved a sigh of relieve. The girl was starting to really get on their nerves. Everyone pulled out their trunks and queued up to get out of the train. The girl finally returned Hermione her 'small and ugly'mirror. Harry pushed all their sweet wrappers into a dustbin the size of a walnut and the dustbin gobbled it all up, licking it's lips and giving a loud, horribly smelly burp. As the vain girl, who was in front of them, stepped off the train, she turned to the three of them and said, "Thanks for.uh.everything. And by the way, my name's Heather, Heather Ianthe."
"Uh, ok, Heather, I'm Ron, this is Harry and this is Hermione."said Ron, pointing to his two friends who forced a smile.
Heather nodded and walked away. Harry and his friends dragged their trunks to a cart, where it rolled autonomously away through a large door. As they were walking, they heard Hagrid's familiar roll-call.
"All first years, come this way. Follow me, dun be frightened now."
Harry waved at Hagrid, who returned it with a hurried wave and smile. They walked on, following the queue. Colin Creevey and his little brother, Dennis Creevey, spotted Harry and ran hungrily to him and started shaking both of his hands hard.
"Hi, Harry! Long time no see, eh? How're you? Man, I miss you, old chump!"babbled Colin, looking wide-eyed at Harry, still shaking his hand hard.
"Yeah.what he said!"said Dennis, beaming widely at Harry as if he was some kind of miracle God, shaking Harry's other hand.
"Uh.well." Harry tried to speak as the Creevey brothers shook his hands aggressively, causing his glasses to slide off his nose and was hanging on an ear.
Ron and Hermione rushed to Harry's aid. Hermione obstinately released Colin's grip from Harry's hand.Ron, on the other hand, twanged Dennis's hand, and due to Dennis's protective instinct, he bashed Ron on the head with his free hand. Ron and Dennis started a little struggle, and Dennis, being small and swift, pulled Ron's pants down. Ron shrieked and lifted his pants up, holding it into place.
Harry and Hermione looked on with amusement, and Harry whispered to Hermione, "He even wears Captain Oreo's boxers?"
Hermione laughed and smacked Harry on his arm. Many people were starting to crowd around to see what all the commotion was about. Colin had jumped on Ron's back and was trying to bite Ron's shoulder, when a drawling voice rang.
"Alright, alright, PREFECT coming through." Malfoy said, emphasising on the 'prefect' part as he strained to get through the thick crowd, who kept on pushing him back. He finally managed to jump in, sticking his chest out like some Superman. It was actually to show people his 'PREFECT' badge pinned smartly on his green Slytherins robes.
"Ya okey-dokey. What's all the commotion here? Tell the PREFECT." He said as he paused to show his badge to the crowd, who all didn't bother to say anything. "That's me, DRACO MALFOY, this year's PREFECT." He said, once again pointing to his badge. "Oh, I see, it's weasel and Potty's number one fan's kid brother. How ordinary. What are you two fighting about? To see which one of you get Potty's hand in marriage?"he asked mockingly.
Ron and Dennis couldn't be bothered with Malfoy and continued their fight. Malfoy looked on for a while with an annoyed look, expecting them to stop any moment. When they didn't, he narrowed his eyes, sucked in lots of air, and yelled.
"HEY YOU TWO DUMB ASSES!!! I SAID KNOCK IT OFF! I'M A PREFECT."he paused to point to his badge, and sucking in more air, he continued, "AND IF YOU TWO PIPSQUEAKS DON'T LISTEN TO ME,I HAVE THE RIGHT TO TAKE AWAY YOUR HOUSE POINTS..." Malfoy smiled at the thought and lowered his voice. " Which would be pretty interesting," He rubbed his hands together gleefully. "Since you two ARE from GRYFFINDOR." He added, letting out a super villian high-pitched laugh, which startled everyone, making the whole crowd quiet.
Malfoy looked around and seeing everyone's startled face, he cleared his throat and mumbled, "There's nothing to see here, people, so KINDLY proceed, you're causing a jam." Everyone miraculously followed his instructions and walked away.
Ron and Dennis had stopped fighting, not wanting of all the people to be Malfoy to deduct their house points. Ron got up and brushed his robes, looking rather annoyed. Colin hauled Dennis up and dragged him away by the hand, and Dennis stuck his tongue out at Ron before they disappeared into the crowd.
Malfoy looked happy with his power to control other students and he walked up to Hermione.
"Hello, my little honey bun,"he said sweetly, using a finger to touch Hermione's face. "See what a PREFECT" Again, pointing to his badge, "can do with all this wonderful power." He placed his hand on her shoulder and pulled her close. "Imagine being a PREFECT'S girl."he whispered into her ear, and kissed her on the cheek. Hermione pushed him away disgustingly and Malfoy laughed, walking away.
"Eww eww eww!!! Get it off, get it off!!!" Hermione shrieked as she viciously rubbed her cheek. "That was the most disgusting thing ever!"
"Ohhh, Malfoy's honey bun, don't deny it, I know you like it!"said Harry, who doubled over, choking with laughter.
"H..o..o..n.e.y.. b..u.n.n.?" Ron said in disbelief as he tried to get the words out in between laughter.
Hermione glared at them and folded her arms across her chest. She turned away and was about to walk away when she collided into somebody.
"Off, oh, pardon me, I'm so sorry." Hermione trailed off as she looked up and stared into the eyes of the most gorgeous guy she had ever met in her life.He had light blue eyes with the most charming face ever. He was tall, built and had short auburn hair neatly spiked up with gel.
"Oh, umm, sorry." He said as he looked at her and smiled a 'Darlie toothpaste advertistment' smile.
"Well, uhh." Hermione said dumbstruck. "It was my fault. I didn't see where I was going."
"Whoever's fault it was, doesn't matter. Noone got hurt, anyway."he said, smiling. "Intro,"he said, holding out his hand, "I'm Jeremy Amsden, a new exchange student from LA. And who might this polite lady be?"
"Uhhh."she said, not knowing what to do. "I'm.Her.Her.Her."
"Her who?" Jeremy asked, looking round. "You're a clone or something?"
"Actually, her name's Hermione." Harry said cutting in. "Granger's the surname."
"Oh, and you are."
"Harry Potter."
"The scar-boy?"
"I guess so. if that's what you refer me to."
"And who's your funny friend?"
"I'm Ronald Weasley. You can call me Ron. Everyone calls me that." Ron introduced himself, shaking Jeremy's hand.
"Ok, cool. It's nice to meet you, Hermione, Harry and Ron. See you around?"
"Yeah, ok, Jeremy." Ron said,waving.
"You can call me J. All my friends call me that." Jeremy said to them, smiling his brilliant smile. "See ya."
He turned and jogged up the Hogwarts's stairs.
"Hermione?" Ron looked at her, who was staring at where Jeremy stood a while ago, with a dreamy look on her face. "Are you okay?"
"I think.I think I'm in love!"she said happily, floating on cloud number nine as they walked up the stairs and entered the Hogwarts's Grand Hall.
