Chapter 7

The girls all walked to Platform 9/34.

Danielle said, "Well this is it."

"Yeppers!" answered Heather

They started to head towards the ticket barrier.

Jackie said, "Alright let's do this girlfriend!"

They heard panting and footsteps behind them. Timmy turned around and meowed.

"Ahh!" screamed Jackie as a boy rocketed towards them with his trolley.

Everyone started running and the four girls and the boy ended up in a crumpled heap.

"Ya, way to not attract attention from muggles." said Nehal angrily

"Gosh." said Jackie

The boy had straight black hair and light blue eyes and pale skin. He glared them. Heather was staring at him with her mouth open.

"Heather?" said Danielle. "Are you okay?"

"Tommy?" said Heather

"Tommy! Vats are you doing to ze geurls! You voulish boi!" said a man in small speedo and a hairy chest.

Tommy turned bright red. "Er…" he said, "This iz Heather. Remember?"

"Oh! Heather of the Reids?"

"Yes."

Heather said, "Hi. Like cha!"

"I am going now." said Tommy's dad, readjusting his speedo.

"Uhh…" said Tommy

"Your dad." Said Heather. Tommy was staring at her; she hoped she didn't have a booger on her face. "Your dad is leaving." She repeated.

Tommy blushed, "Oh er…right. Dad…bye Dad!"

But it was too late, his dad already left. (Aww, so sad)

Heather kept looking at Tommy. "Man is he hot!" she thought

Tommy kept looking at Heather, "She's so hot." He thought

"Come on Heather, the train is going to leave soon." said Jackie impatiently. "Heather! Heather!"

Nehal said, "Maybe we should leave them alone."

Danielle, Nehal and Jackie boarded the train and looked for a compartment.

Heather said, "Well…we should be going now."

"Wait!" said Tommy

Heather turned around, "Yes?"

"Do you think we could share a compartment because I don't really know anyone?"

"Sure!"

Both Heather and Tommy boarded the train.

Danielle said, "Let's get the same compartment as we got last year."

The girls opened the compartment door. (Remember 5th to the left) and saw Parvarti and Seamus making out.

"Go away!" said Parvarti

"Oh sorry." The three girls said and quickly closed the door.

"Tell me I didn't see that!" said Jackie

"Jackie I hate to tell you this but you did see that!" answered Nehal

"Maybe we should find another compartment." suggested Danielle

"Yeah." agreed Nehal and Jackie

Heather said, "You're going to love Hogwarts Tommy! It's so much fun!"

"But I will miss my family, friends and my homeland."

"Don't worry I know how you feel. You're forgetting that I'm an exchange student too. I mean when I heard the teachers and students talking in English accents it was really funny but now I'm used to it!"

Danielle, Nehal and Jackie practically fell into one of the compartments at the side. "Ahh!"

The three girls fell onto the ground. Their were four boys in the compartment, who just stared at them puzzled.

Crabble and Goyle picked them up by their collars.

"Ow!" the girls said

Crabble and Goyle started at their ring leader Draco Malfoy for further instructions, while the other boy sat beside Draco with his arms crossed over his chest looking tough.

Draco said, "Let go!"

Crabble and Goyle obeyed Draco and the girls fell down again.

"My hair is ruined!" said Danielle. She glanced up at Draco standing over them. "Hey! Can I use some of that gel? Or if not what kind is it so I can go buy it."

"Danie!" Nehal and Jackie snapped at Danielle.

"What?"

"Sorry about the…" Nehal trailed off. Why was she apologizing to Draco Malfoy?

"All the compartments were full." said Jackie. There was a painful silence.

Draco looked at Sandy. "Meet, Mcleod, Pradhan and…Jackie."

(Okay this part is from an episode of the O.C.)

Sandy waved at the girls, "Hey how are ya? I'm Sandy."

Jackie said without thinking, "Why don't you take a shower?"

"Pardon me?"

Jackie blushed, "Um…just kidding. Jokes. I- I like ya dirty. You know sandy, dirty, sandy, dirty."

Draco got up from his seat and walked over the compartment door. "I think I'll pay a little visit to Potty, Weasel and the Mudblood. Come on Crabble, Goyle and Sandy."

Once they left, Jackie said, "Omg shoot me now."

Danielle patted Jackie on the shoulder. "I know you were trying to impress him Jaxs, but seriously what the hell were you thinking?"

Heather and Tommy went into a random compartment. Hermione and Ginny were smoking and Harry was coming on to a harassed looking Ron.

"Uh…sorry if I interrupted." said Heather sarcastically. "Should you be smoking here?"

"Bite me." said Hermione

"No!"

Ginny said, "Besides who got drunk in COMC with Neville last year."

"Be quiet bi-otch!"

Tommy said, "Who is Neville?"

"Oh…no one."

"What? I thought Neville was your boy-"

"ANYWAYS!" said Heather. "Do you want to sit here, Tommy?"

"Okay."

"Meow." said Timmy

"Freak." said Ginny

Timmy went to go sit with Crookshanks.

"Is this what Hogwarts is like?" asked Tommy

"Well these are just sort of…freaks. My friends and I are more normal. Scratch that…I don't think anyone's normal. But you're not normal." reported Heather

"Yes, I am!"

"Well, you're the weird family at Shammy. Your family is so hyper. Especially your little brother thingies!"

"What's wrong with being hyper? And they're called my cousins. "

Hermione replied, "There's a lot wrong with you."

"Harry please stop!" said Ron as Harry moved onto his lap.

Suddenly, the compartment door opened. "Hey, what are you fags doing?" asked Draco

"I'm not a fag. Harry is though!" said Heather

Everyone looked at Heather. "What! He is!"

"Who are these British turds? God, I'm so sick of them already." said Tommy

"Shut up!" said Crabble, while Goyle walked mincingly towards Tommy.

"Meow!" said Timmy angrily

Heather whispered to Tommy, "That's Draco Malfoy. He was turning good last year, but since his father disapproved of him going out with my friend Jackie, he's turned bad!"

"Why did he disapprove?"

"Because she's a half-blood!"

Timmy and Crookshanks looked at each other. (LOL) They suddenly attacked Crabble, Goyle and Sandy.

"Come on let's go!" said Draco and they left.

Neville walked from compartment to compartment, looking for Heather. Eventually he found the compartment with Heather's friends.

"Hi, where's Heather?"

"Oh, we don't know, the last thing we saw we left her with this g-"

"Timmy. Her cat." She was talking to him." said Danielle, elbowing Jackie

"Oh…" said Neville. "Do you know where I can find her?"

Nehal said, "Ya, she's probably in a different compartment."

"With Timmy?"

"Um…yeah." said Jackie

"Oh okay then." said Neville. "Thanks."

Jackie said, "So I take it Neville doesn't know about Tommy."

"And George." added Danielle

At that time, Draco, Crabble, Goyle and Sandy came back to the compartment.

"Hide me." Jackie whispered to Nehal and Danielle

The boys sat across from the three girls. Draco sat right across from Jackie and kept staring at her for some reason.

Draco thought, "She's so pretty. Except why do is till have feelings for her, even though we broke up. This didn't happen with my other girlfriends, I moved on pretty quickly. However, father always knows what's best for me…but then again he's an abusive bastard."

Jackie looked at Draco. She thought, "Omg he is so frickin' hot!"

Just then the compartment door opened and Ian came along with his arms around Casey and Meghan's shoulders.

Ian said, "Hey Malfoy." He noticed Danielle and her friends were there.

Danielle glared at Ian.

"Hey baby." Ian said and gave Danielle a hug.

Danielle smiled back weakly.

There was a deadly silence.

"So…" said Jackie trying to ease everyone up.

"So?" Nehal asked Jackie

"I'm hungry!" said Draco suddenly

Jackie thought, "I'm hungry for you, baby." (LOL)

"Danielle, wanna go somewhere to hang out by ourselves?" asked Ian

"To do what? What were you doing to them?" demanded Danielle

Ian said, "I wasn't…"

"You Player! I thought you liked me! I need to be alone." Danielle slapped Ian and ran out.

"Danielle!" said Jackie

Nehal grabbed Jackie's arm. "No Jackie someone ELSE needs to go after her. Nehal looked at Ian, hoping he would get the hint.

Ian suddenly said, "Danielle!" He went after her, in hopes of telling Danielle the truth.

Meghan said, "Nothing happened.

"Ya sure." scoffed Nehal. "That's what they all say."

Casey said, "Ian and I are just friends. And that's the truth!"

Jackie and Nehal looked at each other. They didn't know if they should believe her or not.

"All Ian does is talk about her."

"Wow he must be a real good boyfriend." Jackie said sadly, forgetting that Draco was in the same room

There was silence.

5 minutes later, Casey and Meghan got up and left. Giving the Gryffindors dirty looks.

A little while later, Heather and Tommy came in.

"Hi!" said Heather

"Hi!" said Sandy

"Er…"

Jackie said, "Neville was looking for you, Heather!"

"Who's-"started Tommy

"No!" said Heather. She then looked at her friends. "Nehal you remember Tommy and Jackie this is Tommy."

"Hi."

Tommy looked Jackie up and down, "Girl you fine."

"Dude, back off!" exclaimed Nehal

Draco said, "Aren't you getting a bit close?" Draco glared at Tommy. "German dude."

Heather whispered to Nehal, "This is getting interesting."

"Yeah I'm a dude." said Tommy, "I am accepted, and I fit in! Isn't that great Heather? Now I have friends."

"Ya good job Tommy." Heather said clapping

Tommy put his arm around Draco.

Everyone else laughed.

"Get your arm off me man!" said Draco

"Oh is he a Slytherin?" Tommy asked looking at Heather

Draco scoffed, "Of course I'm a Slytherin and I'm Quidditch captain!"

"Your Quidditch captain!" Nehal and Jackie said out loud with their eyes widened.

"Duh! Who else would it be?" Draco looked at the two of them. "Who's the Quidditch captain for Gryffindor?"

Nehal, Jackie and Heather looked at each other.

Draco exclaimed, "It better not be Potter!"

Heather said, "No it's…"

Nehal covered Heather's mouth. "It's a surprise; we have no idea who it is!"

"That's strange…"

Ian kept looking in the compartments to see if he could find Danielle. Eventually, he found her by herself in a compartment. "Hey Danie." He said slowly and he sat down beside her.

"What do you want?" Danielle said quietly

"Okay Casey and Meghan there just my friends nothing else."

Danielle looked at Ian.

"I'm sorry if you got the wrong idea."

"I saw you with Casey at Diagon Alley."

"You did?"

"Hell yes I did!"

"Listen, Danielle I only have eyes for you. You have my word on that." Ian kissed Danielle on the cheek and Danielle smiled. "Here let's go back to the compartment."

Ian and Danielle returned to the compartment hand in hand.

Draco said, "Well I'm glad that worked out."

Nehal smiled at Danielle, but glared at Ian. She didn't trust him."

Jackie noticed this and said, "What's wrong Neh Neh?"

"Nothing, don't worry I just miss…having a boyfriend."

"Don't worry Neh Neh. I know how you feel. And honestly like we can have a good time without boys…"

"How?"

"Nehal, we had fun times at our old school right?"

"Yes."

"And we didn't have boyfriends like Heather and Danielle did. We can still have fun without them."

Draco listened carefully to Jackie.

"Besides, you shouldn't have to depend on them all the time. And if we do have boyfriends this year, they'll be nice good looking boys…who have lots of cash on them."

Nehal smiled. "Thanks Jaxs."

Jackie put out her fist, "Hoes before bros." (That's from One tree hill)

"And chicks before dicks." They did a little fist hand shake thing.

Just then the trolley lady came by. "Anything off the trolley dearies?"

Jackie looked at her money, "Um…I guess I spent most of it shopping for robes."

Draco said, "Sandy, Crabble, Goyle- What do you want?"

"Showoff." muttered Nehal.

Ian feeling bad offered to pay for Danielle and Tommy offered to pay for Heather.

Jackie wanted Draco to pay for her, since he was loaded with cash. She whispered something into Nehal's ear and she nodded.

Jackie and Nehal started to do the Britney and Madonna dance form the song Me against the music.

Get on the floor, baby lose control, just work that body and let if flow. If you wanna party just grab somebody hey baby we can dance all night long

After they were finished Danielle and Heather clapped for them.

Heather said," Bravo!"

Draco's jaw dropped. Jackie looked incredibly sexy when she was dancing.

"Still here!" said the trolley lady (LOL)

"Oh." said Draco. "I'll pay for these two girls as well. What do you girls want?"

Nehal said, "We'll have these Bernie botts every flavored beans."

Danielle and Ian ordered chocolate covered frogs.

"I want ice cream!" said Heather

"No! Ifs I eat ice cream, iz will get fat!" said Tommy

"Wanna make something outta it?"

"Fine, let's have something else."

Tommy and Heather decided to have jelly slugs.

"Anyways." said Draco. "Jackie err…do you wanna and Pradhan…"

"Sure!" exclaimed Jackie

"Great." said Nehal sarcastically who still of course didn't like Draco.

Draco handed them the jelly beans.

"I'll take that." said Jackie grabbing the bag

"Jackie, have you heard the word ours?" said Nehal

"No."

Nehal sighed.

"But I have heard of the word share!"

Nehal smiled, "Oh Jackie you crack me up real good."

Everyone was eating and having a good time.

Jackie said, "Omg Nehal remember the bean game that we played?"

"Oh yeah, that was so much fun." answered Nehal

Jackie said, "Pick a bean, pick a bean."

Nehal closed her eyes and picked a bean out of the bag. "Mmm…chocolate. Okay it's your turn. Pick a bean, pick a bean."

Jackie picked up a bean and ate it. "Eww…earwax."

"Okay just swallow it and the taste will go away."

Jackie swallowed it. "Eww, nasty."

"Okay do me!"

"Pick a bean, pick a bean."

Tommy said, "Can you please stop! It's getting really annoying!"

Jackie answered, "Oh sorry."

Ian said, "Well could you at least keep it down."

Jackie and Nehal looked at each other. "Okay."

Nehal picked another bean. She put it in her mouth and pretended that it tasted good.

"What flavor Neh Neh?"

"Balloons."

Draco said, "They have balloon flavors now?"

Nehal and Jackie looked at Draco.

Draco shrugged his shoulders, "Just asking."

"Anyways." said Jackie, "Maybe we should stop now."

"Ya I agree." answered Nehal, "But we still should eat all the beans."

Nehal and Jackie each grabbed a handful of jelly beans from the bag.

Nehal said, "On the count of three. 1, 2…"

"3!" shouted Jackie. "Eww!" She knocked the whole bag on the floor. "Oops…my bad! Don't worry, I'll pick it up!" She squatted on the floor and started picking the beans one by one.

Suddenly Jackie lost her balance and fell on…

"Hi." Jackie said embarrassed. She had fallen on Draco.

"Feeling slippery Jackie?" Nehal said innocently.

Draco glared at Nehal.

As time passes by…

"This is comfortable." said Jackie

"Yeah!" said Nehal, stretching her legs out.

"Hey Neh Neh that's my spot!"

"Well you're not setting there anymore and besides, it doesn't have your name on it."

Jackie looked at Draco, "Um…do you mind if I um…sit here?"

"Not at all." said Draco as he wrapped his arms around Jackie's waist so she wouldn't fall.

Danielle and Ian looked at each other. If both Draco and Jackie had feelings for each other then maybe there was still hope for their relationship.

Jackie smiled at Draco.

Just then the head boy opened their compartment. "You lot better get your robes on we will be arriving at Hogwarts soon."

Jackie's jaw dropped. "Roger? Your head boy."

"Yes I am." Roger looked at Jackie and Draco.

Jackie got off Draco's lap and walked over to Roger. "Hey I'm sorry about the Yule ball incident. And I'm sorry that I haven't apologized to you sooner but I guess it's now or never…right?"

Roger looked at Jackie up and down. "I have a girlfriend now."

"Um…okay."

Nehal rolled her eyes, "Gosh how stupid can you get."

Everyone looked at her.

Jackie replied, "Nehal! I'm trying to have a decent conversation here!"

"Ya, but it's not really a decent conversation if the guys a jerk."

"Shut up!" Roger mouthed to Nehal

"What are you talking about?" Jackie said afraid of the answer.

Danielle walked up to Jackie. "Listen Jaxs, at the Yule ball Roger was with Hermione. That's why he was so late. Remember?"

Jackie turned to look at Roger.

"What?"

Nehal, Heather and Danielle laughed.

"You're right Nehal!" said Heather. "This guy is stupid!"

"Roger, your so yesterday!" Jackie slammed the compartment door at his face, and resumed to her spot on Draco.

"Wow!" breathed Draco

"Hogwarts is full of stupid jerks!" stated Nehal

"Speak for yourself!" said Danielle before kissing Ian.

"I am!" Nehal retorted. "Want me to name some for you?" Before Danielle could answer, Nehal said, "Dean, Seamus, and Harry…"

Harry opened the compartment door looking for Ron.

"And here are the lucky candidates." cried Nehal. The compartment burst out laughing.

Harry blushed and closed the door.

"You should have been in Slytherin!" said Draco

"I think that's the only thing we have in common!" said Nehal. "Dissing other people." Nehal and Draco looked up at each other and smiled for a moment. Then pretended nothing happened. No one except Jackie saw that look that passed between them and misunderstood it.

Jackie was about to say something when the train screeched to a halt.

"Er…Jackie." Draco said uncertainly.

"Ya?"

"You need to get off me now."

"Um…right."

They all got off the train.

Jackie said, "Bye Draco."

But he didn't hear here. Instead Draco said, "See you around Pradhan!"

Nehal turned around and smiled. She guessed she just would have to get used to him being friendly and that he did not know she was captain of the Quidditch team. "When the spark comes out, I'm ready." thought Nehal. She then linked arms with Heather and Danielle. Leaving a puzzled and left out Jackie behind.
