My life didn't peace together until my eleventh birthday. My life wasn't complete until I went to Hogwarts, and began on a magical journey.
Marin and I were eating lunch together in the common room. We were going over the Charms homework. Marin had her serious face on, and her glasses were at the end of her nose. Chewing noisily I handed her a chocolate chip cookie.
"No thanks, I have chips." She said gesturing to her still closed bag.
I just laughed in reply, and set the cookie on her book. It was a game we played often, testing our will power. Sighing Marin took the cookie and bit into it with a satisfied smile.
"You do that purposely don't you?" she said hinting sarcasm.
Her passion pink fingernails shone in the sunlight, and I rose from the table.
"We've been studying for a while now Mar, don't you think we should take a break and join Avia and Sue down in the Great Hall?" I said yawning.
The sunlight had been making me drowsy, and Marin's constant pestering hadn't been helpful. She rose, her robes moving slightly.
"Fine then, but if you end up failing the test, don't come crying to me." She chucked a vanilla wafer at me.
Fortunately she missed, and I broke off a piece of my cookie and threw it at her head.
"Come along dear," she said pulling me by the wrist.
We intertwined elbows and skipped out of the portrait hole. We clamored over to the Gryffindor table awkwardly, and finally let go. We found the only open seats, I ended up next to Daniel Potter (If you're wondering he is Harry's son.), and Marin ended up next to Max (Short for Maximus) Black (And he is the son of Sirius, his mother's name is not known to him and he lives with distant relatives.). I knew Marin was smiling, because she'd had a crush on Max for a while.
Daniel had a group of friends and they were similar to the Marauders that were during James Potter's time. The list of them was, Daniel, Max, Liam Lupin (Remus finally settled down and had a child with Nymphadora Tonks.), and Andrew Weasley (Ron had a son with Hermione). Danny was the spitting image of his father; it seemed to run in the family. His eyes were a glorious honey brown with specks of gold. His hair was jet black and always messy. He was mischievous and a very big flirt. He was usually the life of the party, along with Max. Max was handsome and his hair was a dark brown. It wasn't cut regularly and always seemed to be swept to the side. I usually had the urge to run my hands through his hair. It always looked so smooth and still. He had a cool air about him, and his eyes were an electric blue, always full of life. He was just as mischievous as Danny and always had something funny to say. Then there was Liam. He was peaceful and calm. He was really intelligent, and he was soooo beautiful. His eyes were a serine hazel. They captured my attention at all times. Of course no one can forget Andrew; he was so much like his father in every way. He looked exactly like his dad with flaming red hair and freckles, and he was the same personality wise. He was always fun to be around with.
Danny gently nudged me and waved. I turned around in rapt attention and laughed at his eager wave. The pancakes were really warm, but the syrup ended up on the other end of the table next to Liam. Thankfully Danny had to use it and ended up passing it to me. The slight breeze in the room ruffled my robes and my dark brown braids swung slightly to the side.
"So tell me Mini, what were you and Marin doing up in the common room? Smuggling illegal things in from Zonko's?" Danny said with a sly smile starting upon his face.
"Of course, just the usual." I said causally brushing hair from his face.
Startled he moved slightly and then replied, "We really have to do something about your behavior. It's not the kind we expect from a girl like you with so many options." He mimicked a serious voice.
"And it's such a shame that I'm influencing the younger students isn't it?" I said looking deeply into his honey brown eyes.
His gaze averted and he laughed, drowning his pancake in syrup. Across from us I saw Marin in an intense conversation with Max. Next to them I spotted Els seated with Andrew, and Avia and Sue were having another heated argument. Liam was sitting alone, until a seventh year needed his seat, he was then forced to move onto my other side. I turned towards Els and gave her a quick hand signal. She then nudged Andrew, who socked Max, who lightly nudged Marin. She quickly stood up and walked over to Liam. She sat down next to him and began engrossing him into a conversation. Subtly I pushed the back of Liam's glasses and off they flew. For a moment Liam sat there shocked, and then he turned to me. (He was just so hard to fool!) I held the glasses behind my back, and smiled deviously.
"Ok then Mini, what will it take to get my glasses back from you?" He said eyeing me closely.
"Now what on Earth gave you the idea that I would take your glasses Liam?" I said cunningly.
"Last time it was a pie, and the time before that a muffin, what'll it be this time?" He said a smile reaching his lips.
"A kiss," I said with mock seriousness.
Then a couple of giggles escaped around the table, and I waited to see if Liam would give in. This was another game I played. Often I took Liam's glasses and asked for simple little gifts in return, other times I took his chain and wore it for the day. It was all in good fun. I could tell everyone around the table doubted that Liam would give in. To my surprise he leaned in and gave me a kiss smack on the cheek. He then reached behind me and slipped his glasses from my hands with a sly smile.
"You scoundrel," I said laughing and I lightly punched Liam on the shoulder.
Still grinning he turned from me and continued his conversation with Marin.
