Chapter 6 – Settlin' in…
"Well, that's 1 for the Bludgers, 0 for Potter, and his friends."
"Wahoo!"
"Score!"
"Lets go to our dorms before anyone sees us…"
I had to disagree. "No- no one else knows the password."
Outside we heard many sounds of disappointment…. ("Oi, open he door!" "Not without a password!" "Well, what is the password then?")
"You go."
"Why me?" Asked Pat.
"Because you're the most sensible out of us", said Molly.
"Ok, I'll go." Pat turned and started to walk towards the door. We hid ourselves behind chairs and giggled. Pat turned around. "Hey, GUYS!" More giggling. "You really were right – you are really insane!" She walked briskly to the door, when suddenly…
"FINE! I WILL TELL YOU THE PASSWORD. IT IS… POTTER THE PRAT!"
"Potter the prat?"
There were many murmurs, as the password was so weird until the prefect said, "Ok. Potter the prat."
The door swung open, and Pat was left in the spotlight. Coincidentally enough, James could see her, and stormed in. "WHY DID YOU DO THAT? I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING TO YOU! AS SOON AS I LEARN SOME", he looked around and noticed everyone staring at him, "As soon as I learn some hexes, watch out, Pat. 'Cause I'm always going to be watching you."
"Can you watch both of us?" Molly asked, stepping out into the spotlight. Molly, the responsible and organised one.
"What? You two were in this together?"
"Us THREE, you mean." (Me)
"Us four", Joey finally admitted herself. Joey – the fun one, the humorous one, the one who didn't like the blame.
"WHAT? Oh Great! So all of the Bludgers are after me. Like I need any more attention! Remus, Peter, Sirius, help me out here?"
"Ok", Sirius was the first to step in. "We're in a group too, you know. Four on four. Comprehend?"
"Comprehended." (Me) I guess I was the leader of the Bludgers.
"Fine."
"Fine."
Later, when we were settling in to our dorm, Joey tugged on my arm. "You really like him, don't you?"
"WHAT?"
"Oh, nothing. It just says in the latest issue of Witch weekly that people who fight like each other." She just had to have a spare copy. Joey pulled it out, and opened it up to the exact page. "See? The more you fight with someone, the more you care about them."
"Well, that doesn't apply to me – I pointed to the next passage. "And I quote – This only applies to boys, who try to look tough and brave for…"
"Yes?"
"Shut up Joey." (Pat)
"No way."(Molly)
"Potter likes me? What a stupid idea. It's only a magazine."
"We'll see, Lily, we'll see." We looked forward, and James appeared out of thin air."
"James! You really need to stop nosing around." (Molly)
"One day you might go out with this young, dazzling, beautiful…"
"Shut up Joey" (Me)
"…Witch. Ever think about that?"
"Oh, sod off."
"No." (Me)
"Why not?"
"Because you are in the girls' dorms, if you hadn't noticed." (Joey)
"Oh." He disappeared.
"By the way, nice invisibility cloak" (Pat)
"PAT!" (all)
James appeared again. "What?"
"Never mind. Bye! Go away!" (Joey)
"I am NOT sharing my cloak with you."
"Not the point." (Molly)
"Do you un-der-stand En-glish?" (Me)
He disappeared, and we saw the door open and shut.
"Tomorrow, first lesson… Transfiguration with Professor MacGonagall."
"Thanks Pat. I feel like sleeping. Who's with me?" (Many enthusiastic replies – "ME!" "Oh, I couldn't have thought of a better idea" "Of course!")
"Ok. Peace and quiet for the Bludgers, aka the 1st year girlies of Gryffindor!"
"Shut up Joey"
"GOODNIGHT!"
"Night"
"See you in the morning."
"Night all."
