chappie three
When the carriage started moving, Blaise was the first one to break the silence.
"Why were you two sitting with the Golden Trio?" he asked curiously.
"Oh, well we were there first but then they came and were about to leave but we told them to stay. So they did." Holly replied simply and innocently.
"WHAT?!?" roared Blaise and Draco. Holly winced at how loud this was said.
"Merlin, house rivalry that bad?" asked the two girls. They were answered by the two slightly flustered and angry Slytherin boys nodding their heads. After that silence followed.
Blaise's POV and thoughts
Merlin, Holly was so cute when she said that. Wait, did I just say cute? Whatever. Anyways, I feel bad that I shouted. Oh well, hopefully she'll forgive me.
Draco's POV and thoughts
AHH!!! Holly can be so innocent at times! It makes me feel so bad when I shout at her. Hey it was about House rivalry. It's a touchy subject. Eh, that's a horrible excuse to shout at one of my best friends. Dang.
Blair's POV and thoughts
Oh Merlin. Those two boys can be a pain in the butt sometimes. They made Holly feel bad for something she shouldn't be. Poor thing.
Holly's POV and thoughts
Gosh, they didn't need to shout. I wonder what they would do if Blair and I were put in Gryffindor. Let me ask.
Breaking the silence Holly asked quietly, "Guys, what would you do if we were put in Gryffindor?"
"Yeah, what would you do?" questioned Blair, slightly raising her voice as she backed up her best friend. The girls were met by a minute or two of more silence before the two boys said together, "We wouldn't care. You two are our best friends, minus Blair and Draco."
"Ha, yeah they're mortal enemies, well Blair to Draco anyway." joked Holly.
"Yup, I would like to do nothing more than to hex him into oblivion." said Blair. Everyone smiled at this except for Draco; he scowled.
"Thanks guys. Hopefully for Dumbledore's sake, we can create house unity, not rivalry." Holly said.
"How do you know Dumbledore?" questioned Blaise.
"Well, duh, don't you think we'd know who our new headmaster would be?" asked Blair.
Blaise, with a loss for words just said, "Oh."
Blair's POV and thoughts
Gosh. Blaise is one of the two people that I know that is really intelligent. Holly's the other one. He made himself look so stupid. Way to look good in front of Holly, Blaise.
Holly's POV and thoughts
Hehehe. He's usually so smart. He looks cute when he doesn't know, though, too. That's all right. I don't care. I like him all the same.
Striking up a new conversation, Draco asked Holly and Blair, "Hey, what house do you think you'll be in?"
"Well, I think Blair and I will be in Gryffindor." said Holly confidently.
"Yeah, brave, always breaking the rules no matter what. Yup, definitely Gryffindor material." Blaise said, chuckling. Though he said it with a tiny bit of sarcasm, both Blair and Holly grinned. Breaking the rules was fun, especially since there were so many at home.
"We take that as a compliment Blaise." the two girls said together.
Blaise's POV and thoughts
GOOD! I'm glad you do Holly! I would love to shower you with compliments but then you would get suspicious.
"I know, you do huh?" Draco said smiling. Now the old Draco Malfoy NEVER smiled in public. But now with Voldemort and his father gone, he smiled freely.
"Psh, shut it Malfoy." snapped Blair.
"Whoa, calm down, he's just playing around!" exclaimed Holly. "Can't you, Blair Renee Grenaldi, at least go on a first name basis with him?" Blair knew that when Holly used someone's full name that she had lost her temper.
"No, Holly Rose Haliwal." said Blair flatly, challenging her friend's temper.
Holly sighed and said, "Come on, can't you at least put some, not all but some of your differences up? It's a new year and school, for Merlin's sake! Besides on the train you promised."
"Fine." Blair said, reluctantly giving in to her best friend.
"You are a miracle worker you know that?" Draco said to Holly. Blair just scowled at this.
"Haha. Thanks, though I don't think Blair likes that." replied Holly. He returned an answer by smiling back.
"Yeah that's right. Trying to be nice and then being a jerk the next second." said Blair coolly.
"What do you have against men?" asked a rather bewildered Draco.
"Nothing. But I do have something against you, no matter what Holly says. Trust me, I have my reasons." Blair stated simply.
"But you will try to be nice." commanded Holly
"Yeah, whatever." said Blair dismissively as she turned to look out the window.
Holly's POV and thoughts
What reasons? Hmm I must know. I'll ask her when we get into our dormitories.
Blair's POV and thoughts
Shoot. I think I gave away too much information. Blaise and Malfoy might not get it, but Holly probably will. SHOOT!
"Hey…why don't we do some mischievous stuff this year? You know, the professor would never suspect us because we're new." piped up Holly
"Yeah… We all have brooms, Invisibility Cloaks, the guts to do it and the brains: Holly, Blaise, and me!" said a very mischievous looking Blair.
"Hey, what about me?" Draco asked
"Of course you can come" said Holly kindly, shooting a look that promised trouble at Blair.
"The poor, poor people who will be the victims of our mischief, but oh well!" said Holly.
"Wow, never knew you two could be so Slytherin-ish." said Draco. "I hope you two will be put in Slytherin."
"Don't get your hopes up mate. I personally doubt it because they have hearts of a Gryffindor with some Slytherin traits mixed in." said Blaise.
"Though I wouldn't mind them in our house." commented Draco.
"Yeah but I would mind being in the same house as you." Blair said coldly.
Holly disregarded this and said, "Sorry to burst your bubble guys."
"It's ok." replied the boys.
"Alright then. Now back to our mischief. Muahhahahah!" laughed Draco evilly. The three other people in the carriage looked at him before bursting into laughter. Even Draco laughed. They laughed for at least five minutes straight.
"Yeah, this is going be one heck of a year." stated the four of them. Seconds after this was said, the carriage pulled up to Hogwarts where it came to a stop.
