After sitting in my room for a while I heard the warning bell sound off, telling me that I had fifteen minutes to get to my next class. I looked at my schedule- Telekinesis on the third floor, room 3441. I sighed and peeked my head out of the door. Luckily for me, Frederic was no where to be seen. I left into the hallway and shut the door.

A snap sounded from across me. Jumping, I looked up to see Draco there. His room was directly across from mine. I didn't say anything to him but instead continued on my way.

Finding the room was surprisingly easy. I lined up with the rest of the class and waited until the bell to ring so we could enter. When we were allowed, I hastily found a seat in the back. Upon waiting for others to find a sofa I observed the classroom.

Purple, squishy chintz chairs were aligned around a square table with four books. The carpet was thick and shaggy and matched almost horribly with the maroon wallpaper. I found myself wondering what possessed the teacher to decorate in such an odd and disgusting fashion.

Jessica entered and found a seat next to me, and Frederic sat next to her, leaving a gap between the two of us. I looked awkwardly at the table. Right when I'd thought everyone was seated, Draco Malfoy came in eight minutes late. The only open seat was next to me.

I groaned, wondering why that always seemed to happen. He glared then reluctantly took the chintz.

"Now that everyone is seated," a tall, skinny man said. He had thick, bushy eyebrows, a monocle, large feet and hands, and a booming but soft voice. He almost reminded me of Hagrid. "My name is Professor Knas. A quick note to the Hogwarts students; telekinesis is a fine art derived from the ancient study of divination. You have been selected to participate by your instructors. They claimed that you were amazingly advanced and that you'd do simply spectacular in a achieving class such as this."

Malfoy snorted. I shot him a dirty look.

Professor Knas continued. "I will learn all of you names as the time comes, but for now I'd like you all to partner up into pairs. When you have done so, I want both of you to take the book in front of you and open it to page three hundred and twenty-four. Follow the instructions. I expect it to be handed in at the end of the class. Begin."

I looked around. Frederic had jumped right at Jessica, asking her to be his partner. My eyes scanned the crowd for someone sitting by him or herself. I looked to my left and I saw that Malfoy was doing the same.

"Listen, don't think that I like you or anything but I don't have a part-" I began.

He cut me off. "Yeah, okay, I'll work with you."

I sighed, happy that he didn't make a big deal out of the scenario.

I looked on the table in front of me, then grabbed the book, Whispering Movements, and flipped it to the assigned page.

"The basics to Telekinesis are extremely simple. To control an inanimate object you must think like one. Start if off easy by pairing with a partner. Study your partners face, twitching of the eyes, and curling of the lips to try to get a good read on what they're feeling and wondering about."

I coughed. "This stuff is bullshit."

"No doubt about that," he agreed.

I smiled, then realized what I was doing. Looking down at the book, I acted like I was scanning the paragraph again.

We passed the rest of the period in silence.
