A/N: Ok, here's Chapter 6! It's Rachel's PoV so expect a lot of swelled ego, butterbeer and hate for Crabbe. Here's what's in this chapter: Toothpaste, hearing disorders, head bashing, BIG SWELLED EGO (it's in capital letters for a reason), Divination, DADA and Charms. (Yes, two new subjects and one repeat!)
Have fun reading this! And don't forget ... REVIEW! Everyone's opinion is counted and maybe you might get a mention! Also: Since this chapter has a full 3 lesson plan, the chapter will be longer than usual.
Also, thank you for the comments, it's keeping me motivated.
As Well As: What's with the reviewer 'louise' (or was it 'luoise'?) who kept on posting 'tralala'?

P.S. HI STEPHANIE!!
P.P.S. In case you're wondering who I am ... here are some clues: Silly, Till, Ink, Never, Kill, Illusions and Energertic. BTW I am not Linda, Karla!
Chapter 6 - Rachel's PoV: Big Ego, Big Complications
I yawned when I got up in the morning. My ear hurt - Elizabeth went crazy for some reason and damaged everyone's ears. My poor ears! I may need my ears in later life!
I walked to the window and looked outside like I did every morning. It was dark and stormy. There was none of the usual morning stuff happening outside. The owls were still inside th owlery, people were inside sleeping and the birds weren't even chirping.
I looked down into the lake. Funny- I couldn't see tentacles ...
I picked up my watch from my bedside table and checked the time. 7:30. Ahh, perfect time for breakfast.
I went to the bathroom and started washing my face. Now ... where was that blasted toothpaste? I looked down. The tube was empty.
I was gobsmacked. How very inconvenient - the toothpaste was all used up just when I was supposed to use it! How could they do this to me?! I'm better than all of them (I secretly know that. I try to keep it subtle), yet I am deprived of TOOTHPASTE!
Not getting my Butterbeer is one thing but no toothpaste is unacceptable!
I stormed back into my dormitory and kicked open the door-and stubbed my toe.
"OK!" I screamed, hopping on one foot and brandishing the empty toothpaste tube at the occupied beds. "WHO USED UP THE TOOTHPASTE AND DIDN'T BOTHER TELLING ME?!"
"Rachel!" Courtney rolled her eyes. "Can you hear yourself? You're nearly waking up the entire castle."
"Can't Dan Loo bear herself?" Linda asked. "Sure, merely baking up the parcel?"
"Courtney, speak sense will you?" Linda said annoyingly.
"WHO'S PLAYED THIS SICK JOKE ON ME?" I screamed at everyone. How could they do this to the person who was smarter, braver, more charming, confident and beautiful than them?!
"Rachel!" Ashlee got up and physically shook my shoulders. "It's a tube of empty toothpaste. GET OVER IT!"
Get over it? THAT'S MY LINE! HOW COULD THEY COPY MY GENIUS LIKE THAT WITHOUT EVEN CONSULTING ME?
"Don't tell me to get over it!" I yelled back.
"OI!" Lara joined in. Everyone fell silent. We were all perfectly aware that Lara had the ability to dominate the world and make us her little slaves.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY?" Linda shouted, sticking a finger in her ear, trying to hear.
"RACHEL!" Lara continued, plainly ignoring Linda. "IT'S AN EMPTY TUBE OF TOOTHPASTE!"
"But -"
"I'M NOT FINISHED YET!" Lara screeched onwards. "IT'S NOT A PLOT TO MAKE YOU GET GINGIVITIS, NOR A PLOT TO MAKE US HAVE SUCH WHITE TEETH THAT YOU GET BLINDED!"
"Yes it -"
"I'M STILL NOT FINISHED YET!" Lara carried on. "NOW GET A PIN, DEFLATE YOUR GIANT EGO THAT SWELLS BY THE DAY AND CHARM YOURSELF A NEW TUBE OF TOOTHPASTE!"
"Are you done now?" I asked.
"Yes." Lara sneered. "Yes I am."
"Don't be mean!" I replied, and exited the room, slamming the door behind me. This just shows that people cannot understand those who are both mentally and physically smarter than they!
I went into the bathroom. Charm myself a tube of toothpaste? How am I supposed to do that?! I cleared my throat.
"Charmus Colgatus?" I said uncertainly. All of a sudden, one of the drawers underneath the sink started smoking. I opened it to find all the spare toothpaste tubes on fire! Well, it obviously wasn't my fault. "Stupid, stinking ... BAD WAND! BAD WAND!" I started banging the wand against the counter. Each time, the wand emitted red sparks.
"Um, excuse me." coughed a voice behind me. I stopped banging my wand and turned around. What I saw was a girl with bushy brown hair and rather large, white front teeth. So she used up all the toothpaste!
"Yes?" I asked as I rubbed my wand.
"You woke me up - I was wondering whatever caused you to scream your lungs out."
"Oh." I gulped. "I ran out of toothpaste."
"You ran out of toothpaste?" Hermione asked incredulously. "Surely, you could have had something else to argue about?"
"Uh, well, no." I blushed.
"Oh." Hermione looked at me astonished. "Well, you shouldn't really bang your wand like that - my friend did so and he had to get a new one."
"Ok." I replied. Hermione gave me a small smile and disappeared from the doorway. Then my smile disappeared. "Don't tell me what to do, woman!"
~~Breakfast~~
After I finally managed to brush my teeth, I sat down at the breakfast table. I was forking eggs onto my plate as well as bacon and poured myself some orange juice. Shortly afterwards, Louise appeared and started eating with me.
"You know, Rachel," Louise reasoned with me, "not everyone is against you."
"Yes they are!" I objected grumpily. I looked at me watch. 8:15. Oh no, it was almost time for -
"Good morning everybody!" a little redhead said, the Great Hall shaking yet again. "Hi Rachel! Hi Louise!"
"Hi Karla." Louise and I replied with little enthusiasm.
"Why aren't you happy?" Karla asked merrily, skipping towards the Gryffindor table.
"We are." Louise replied flatly.
"Be HAPPIER!" Karla laughed.
"No." Lara sat down next to Karla. "Hey! Food!" Lara grabbed her plate and piled it with food. She then left the table to sit with Malfoy.
I looked at Lara and Malfoy. Why did she keep on sitting with him? We're her friends too. What does she see in him-boys have boy germs!
~~Divination~~
The bell rang when we finished breakfast, and we climbed up to the North Tower with full stomachs.
"Welcome!" Professor Trelawny whispered mystically.
"Hi." I replied. I looked around. The room was decorated with candles and incense burners. Trelawny also had a wide collection of blue and pink chinaware
"YOU!" Trelawny said dramatically, pointing a finger at Elizabeth.
"Yes, Professor Trelawny?" Elizabeth asked fearfully.
"You will not get what you ultimately long for!" Trelawny said, trying to sound shocked.
"I know that already." Elizabeth replied back flatly. Then she added quietly, "We all know that I'll never get Harry ..."
"Ahem, anyway," Professor Trelawny said pointedly, "let's begin our lesson today with crystal ball reading ..." Trelawny produced her wand and flicked it - the crystal balls that were lined against the walls flew over to the little tables.
"Good one." I heard somebody say. I turned around to look for the souce of the noise. "Then, we'll get him to fall down into -" It was Lara. What was she talking about to Malfoy? Secret telling! Why aren't I included?!
"Now sit yourself down at a table - no more than 3 each." Trelawny instructed mistily.
I went and found a pink table. Two other people soon joined me. They were Linda and Hermione. I looked around, Lara was sitting with Malfoy (naturally) and Louise. Courtney was sitting with Karla and Ron. Elizabeth was sitting with Ashlee and Harry.
"Alright then ... The spirits are saying that we should start now." Professor Trelawny 'predicted' in a way that she probably thought was mysterious. We merely thought that she sounded like she had too many spirits and vodkas.
"Psst." a voice said. I turned around and saw Harry.
"What?" I whispered back.
"Can you get Lara, please?" he asked. I rolled my ears and sent a few sparks towards Lara's head with my wand.
"What?" she mouthed. I moved my head towards Harry. She rolled her eyes. "Tell him that he's an as-"
"Lara!" I objected.
"-Hole." Lara finished her sentence. "What?"
"Now, look at your crystal ball and tell me what you see." Professor Trelawny said.
I nudged Linda. "What did she say?"
"How did she pay?" Linda asked questionably.
"Never mind." I said.
"Clever behind?" Linda asked.
There is an alarming rate of hearing aids needed in the wizard community.
~~DADA~~
After of what seemed like hours of Professor Trelawny predicting our deaths, the bell rang and everybody ran out to Defence Against the Dark Arts so that she wouldn't get us to help clean up the mess.
We entered the DADA room. We all sat ourselves down at seats. I looked around the room - everyone was really bored.
Well, except for Malfoy. He was sitting next to Lara and was doodling something on a piece of parchment. She started laughing, picked up her own quill and added something. They both started laughing. Weird. Then he leaned over and whispered something into her ear through cupped hands. They both started laughing-no-cackling.
"My hero!" she said sarcastically and they both started laughing again. Weird.
"By Nero?" Linda asked loudly. "What's by Nero? I want to see it!"
"Never mind." Lara said patronizingly.
"Clever behind?!" Linda asked back. "WHAT WAS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE?" Lara rolled her eyes.
A few minutes later, Professor McGonagall came in. She cleared her throat.
"Sorry we didn't announce this before, but your new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor A. Boogie isn't here today. She is horribly ill at the moment in the hospital wing. There is something wrong with her nasal system."
"Free period!" Elizabeth mumbled hopefully.
"We could not find any teachers, so as a result, you will have a free period." Professor McGonagall cleared her throat again and glared at us. "I will trust that at your age, you will act sensibly and not disturb anybody. That is all."
We sat there in silence. She looked at us, then walked out of the room. As soon as the door shut ...
"WOO!" everyone screamed happily. "PARTY! PARTY! PARTY!"
The door swished open immediately and Professor McGonagall stepped inside again. Everyone was silent, already working. She surveyed us all with a sharp look. Silence. Then she left.
"PARTY!" somebody screamed. "SOMEONE GET THE BUTTERBEER!"
"Me!" Harry got up and Ashlee sighed.
"Do you have to?" Ashlee asked.
"Yes - in fact, come with me!" Harry suggested.
"OK!" Ashlee got up as well and walked outside with Harry.
Karla smirked. She brought up her wand. She waved it around until it formed an 'S' in orange sparks. Then Courtney laughed and waved her own wand. The letter 'N' appeared in red sparkles. Louise giggled and waved her wand. The letter 'O' appeared in yellow. Linda raised her wand and shaped out the letter 'G' into the air in green sparks. Then Elizabeth made the letter 'F'. After that, Lara formed 'E'. I laughed internally and made an 'S'. I heard Hermione laughing. Then she charmed up a 'T' into the air.
The message read 'SNOGFEST' into the air. I can't believe it took them THAT long to write ONE word. I could have done that in 10 seconds flat!
A few minutes later, Harry and Ashlee brought back bottles and bottles of butterbeer.
"Butterbeer?" Harry asked Ashlee dreamily.
"Of course!" Ashlee replied back, her eyes misting over.
"Draco!" Lara said nicely to Malfoy. "Would you mind getting me a butterbeer?"
"Sure." Malfoy charmed some butterbeer bottles to him. He smiled evily at Lara and started shaking the bottle.
"Do it!" Lara whispered.
Malfoy unscrewed the lid of the bottle and charmed the contents to go flying across the room. It splashed all over Harry. Malfoy and Lara started cackling.
"Harry ..." Ashlee said, not acting surprised at all, "you're a bit wet."
"Really?" Harry asked, not even bothering to tear his eyes away from Ashlee. "Such a shame."
Malfoy and Lara's faces dropped. Nothing was happening!
"Later, we'll get him again!"
Why didn't they include me? Well ... it's obviously because I have a far more superior mind than they.
"Hey, Harry, pass me a butterbeer!" I said. Butterbeer! I need butterbeer!
"Sorry, but there's none left." Harry replied, without even giving me a glance.
"NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
~~Astronomy~~
It was time for Astronomy again. We climbed up into the Astronomy Tower and sat down. Why did we have to climb up so many stairs anyway, I mean, I should be carried or at least have a broomstick to get up there! Why? Well, it's because I AM the most important one out of all of then, so I don't want to damage my perfectly tanned legs!
Anyway, Professor Sinistra, the Astronomy teacher, started talking.
"Today, we will be observing the Moon." she smiled toothily at us all. "Hopefully, if we do it correctly, we will be able to see the Mooneys that inhabit the planet." We all nodded.
"What are Mooneys?" Courtney asked.
"Mooneys are beautiful creatures which inhabit the moon." Professor Sinistra explained patiently. "They don't speak any language that wizards or muggles know of. This is a disadvantage to us because they know all the secrets of the planets."
"Oh." Louise started laughing. "I thought that they flashed their but-"
"Louise!" Karla said.
"-s at us." Louise finished her sentence. "What?"
"Beautiful creatures?" Harry asked vaguely. "Beautiful - just like Ashlee." Ashlee smiled and turned pink.
We all took a moment to mentally and physically roll our eyes. Karla tipped her head under the table and made throwing up noises.
"Thank you, Mr Potter," Professor Sinistra was on the brink of laughing as well, "but we prefer that you keep your love life out of this lesson."
"Love?" Ashlee sighed. "I can use that in a sentence."
"Yeah, but we wouldn't like to hear it." Lara said sarcastically.
"Like," Ashlee continued, plainly ignoring Lara, "I love Harry."
Even Linda heard that, and she ducked under the desk and started making other throwing up noises with Karla. Courtney was trying to choke herself.
"But why would you want to?" Karla asked as soon as she finished sounding like she was dead. "BOYS HAVE COOTIES!"
"ARRGH!" we all screamed. "YOU SAID THE 'C' WORD!"
"I can reword that sentence that Ashlee said!" Harry sighed as he ignored what we said. "I love Ashlee." I saw Elizabeth banging her head near their table.
"I could have had that!" she sobbed as she banged everytime.
"You know, I have a perfect way to tear apart ANYBODY away from the person that they are mesmerised in!" Karla suggested.
"How?" Louise asked.
"PEANUT!" Karla said, sounding out the word. Nothing.
"I got one!" Courtney said happily.
"What?" Elizabeth asked hopefully. Courtney raised her arm and punched Ashlee in the right arm.
"PUNCHBUGGY!" she said in a funny voice. Nothing, except Ashlee rubbed her shoulder.
"Well, that was a great help!" Linda said sarcastically.
"How about this?" Courtney asked desparately. "PUNCHBUGGY PEANUT!" She then punched Harry AND Ashlee.
Nothing.
"Your eyes are pretty." Harry said dreamily.
"You're wonderful." Ashlee replied, sighing.
"MR POTTER!" It seemed like Professor Sinistra had had enough. "MS HILLARY! RESTRAIN YOURSELVES FROM SAYING ROMANTIC SENTENCES AND CONTINUE WITH OBSERVING THE MOON FOR MOONEYS!"
"OK." Harry turned his head and started looking through the telescope. As soon as Professor Sinistra had turned around, they started staring at each other.
Eww.
~~Lunch~~
After Astronomy, I sat myself down at the Gryffindor table. Lara, as usual, joined the Slytherin table with a piece of rolled up scroll. We all started talking.
"What's with the whole 'love' thing with Ashlee and Harry?" Linda asked.
"I assumed that you couldn't hear them." I asked.
"Yeah, well sometimes I can train my ears to listen to the stuff that other can't hear." Linda replied with a grin.
"I dunno." I answered Linda's question. "I wonder why they're so bleugh now."
"I know why." Elizabeth said bitterly. She now had a big black bruise where she had banged her head before.
"Why?" Louise, Courtney and Karla asked eagerly.
"Don't worry." Elizabeth replied back hastily. Hmm ... Weird as well.
"Are you covering up something that we should know?" Louise asked.
"Yeah, are you?" Courtney squinted her eyes suspiciously at Elizabeth.
"Yeah, are you?" Karla mimicked.
"Never mind."
"Stop talking about mentally advanced body parts!" Linda screamed at everyone.
"What?"
"CLEVER BEHIND!" Linda was turning red with anger. "HONESTLY!"
Why are all my friends so weird? Or is it just me? Nah ... Couldn't be ...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A/N: There you go! Another chapter! Maybe you can figure out who I am from those clues. Let me give you possibly my last clue: It's one of the most unlikely things about the clue that I gave in the beginning of the chapter that you would think of to figure out ...
And ... aww! Rachel didn't get her butterbeer! Oh well. :) AND! PEANUT AND PUNCHBUGGY LINE WAS INCLUDED! YAY! (happy now, Slytherin's-Dark-Angel? =D)
Anyway ...
Have fun re-reading and re-viewing!
Until Chapter 7 ...

"We are." Louise replied flatly.
"Be HAPPIER!" Karla laughed.
"No." Lara sat down next to Karla. "Hey! Food!" Lara grabbed her plate and piled it with food. She then left the table to sit with Malfoy.
I looked at Lara and Malfoy. Why did she keep on sitting with him? We're her friends too. What does she see in him-boys have boy germs!

"Sorry, but there's none left." Harry replied, without even giving me a glance.
"NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"
~~Astronomy~~
It was time for Astronomy again. We climbed up into the Astronomy Tower and sat down. Why did we have to climb up so many stairs anyway, I mean, I should be carried or at least have a broomstick to get up there! Why? Well, it's because I AM the most important one out of all of then, so I don't want to damage my perfectly tanned legs!
Anyway, Professor Sinistra, the Astronomy teacher, started talking.
"Today, we will be observing the Moon." she smiled toothily at us all. "Hopefully, if we do it correctly, we will be able to see the Mooneys that inhabit the planet." We all nodded.
"What are Mooneys?" Courtney asked.
"Mooneys are beautiful creatures which inhabit the moon." Professor Sinistra explained patiently. "They don't speak any language that wizards or muggles know of. This is a disadvantage to us because they know all the secrets of the planets."
"Oh." Louise started laughing. "I thought that they flashed their but-"
"Louise!" Karla said.
"-s at us." Louise finished her sentence. "What?"
"Beautiful creatures?" Harry asked vaguely. "Beautiful - just like Ashlee." Ashlee smiled and turned pink.
We all took a moment to mentally and physically roll our eyes. Karla tipped her head under the table and made throwing up noises.
"Thank you, Mr Potter," Professor Sinistra was on the brink of laughing as well, "but we prefer that you keep your love life out of this lesson."
"Love?" Ashlee sighed. "I can use that in a sentence."
"Yeah, but we wouldn't like to hear it." Lara said sarcastically.
"Like," Ashlee continued, plainly ignoring Lara, "I love Harry."
Even Linda heard that, and she ducked under the desk and started making other throwing up noises with Karla. Courtney was trying to choke herself.
"But why would you want to?" Karla asked as soon as she finished sounding like she was dead. "BOYS HAVE COOTIES!"
"ARRGH!" we all screamed. "YOU SAID THE 'C' WORD!"
"I can reword that sentence that Ashlee said!" Harry sighed as he ignored what we said. "I love Ashlee." I saw Elizabeth banging her head near their table.
"I could have had that!" she sobbed as she banged everytime.
"You know, I have a perfect way to tear apart ANYBODY away from the person that they are mesmerised in!" Karla suggested.
"How?" Louise asked.
"PEANUT!" Karla said, sounding out the word. Nothing.
"I got one!" Courtney said happily.
"What?" Elizabeth asked hopefully. Courtney raised her arm and punched Ashlee in the right arm.
"PUNCHBUGGY!" she said in a funny voice. Nothing, except Ashlee rubbed her shoulder.
"Well, that was a great help!" Linda said sarcastically.
"How about this?" Courtney asked desparately. "PUNCHBUGGY PEANUT!" She then punched Harry AND Ashlee.
Nothing.
"Your eyes are pretty." Harry said dreamily.
"You're wonderful." Ashlee replied, sighing.
"MR POTTER!" It seemed like Professor Sinistra had had enough. "MS HILLARY! RESTRAIN YOURSELVES FROM SAYING ROMANTIC SENTENCES AND CONTINUE WITH OBSERVING THE MOON FOR MOONEYS!"
"OK." Harry turned his head and started looking through the telescope. As soon as Professor Sinistra had turned around, they started staring at each other.
Eww.
~~Lunch~~
After Astronomy, I sat myself down at the Gryffindor table. Lara, as usual, joined the Slytherin table with a piece of rolled up scroll. We all started talking.
"What's with the whole 'love' thing with Ashlee and Harry?" Linda asked.
"I assumed that you couldn't hear them." I asked.
"Yeah, well sometimes I can train my ears to listen to the stuff that other can't hear." Linda replied with a grin.
"I dunno." I answered Linda's question. "I wonder why they're so bleugh now."
"I know why." Elizabeth said bitterly. She now had a big black bruise where she had banged her head before.
"Why?" Louise, Courtney and Karla asked eagerly.
"Don't worry." Elizabeth replied back hastily. Hmm ... Weird as well.
"Are you covering up something that we should know?" Louise asked.
"Yeah, are you?" Courtney squinted her eyes suspiciously at Elizabeth.
"Yeah, are you?" Karla mimicked.
"Never mind."
"Stop talking about mentally advanced body parts!" Linda screamed at everyone.
"What?"
"CLEVER BEHIND!" Linda was turning red with anger. "HONESTLY!"
Why are all my friends so weird? Or is it just me? Nah ... Couldn't be ...

A/N: There you go! Another chapter! Maybe you can figure out who I am from those clues. Let me give you possibly my last clue: It's one of the most unlikely things about the clue that I gave in the beginning of the chapter that you would think of to figure out ...
And ... aww! Rachel didn't get her butterbeer! Oh well. :) AND! PEANUT AND PUNCHBUGGY LINE WAS INCLUDED! YAY! (happy now, Slytherin's-Dark-Angel? =D)
Anyway ...
Have fun re-reading and re-viewing!
Until Chapter 7 ...
