Hannah was just about to say something to her but McGonagoll walked in and she quickly sat down, giving Amy a huge glare as she walked past.

"Now class!" McGonagoll started "There has been a few timetable changes but this does not mean that you can use it as an excuse to be late for lessons!"

The class groaned.

"Furthermore I know that you have probably heard this already but there will be NO slacking in my classes whatsoever!" She continued "Do I make myself clear?"

"Yes Professor!"

"Now today we are reviewing a very simple charm – one that we covered first year. We will be transfiguring animals into water goblets."

The class groaned

"But we've done this!"

"Can't we do something else?"

"SILENCE!" McGonagoll yelled, "Get out your wands or we will be writing for the whole lesson!"

There were many unhappy students in that class; no one could remember how to do the spell. What made matters worse was that most of the class's attempts were unsuccessful. James' goblet still had feathers. Sirius' still had a tail (not to mention a few other things). Lily's and Hannah's were fully transfigured but they had a lot of cracks and chips in various places. They looked at Remus, Peter, Clare and Carolyn whose had been done correctly and successfully and they muttered to themselves.

"Why am I such a failure?" Hannah asked

"Hannah, if you are then I am." Lily stated

"You are not a failure Han." Remus said

Then why do I feel like one then?"

Remus leant across the table and kissed her on the lips.

"He hem!" McGonagoll coughed as she walked past them and they pulled away very quickly, looking rather embarrassed.

Lily laughed at the expressions on their faces.

"You'd think that she'd never been in love!" She laughed

"She probably hasn't." Sirius said, from behind.

Everyone burst into a fit of silent laughter, unfortunately for them, James' and Sirius' laughter because louder and louder.

"You." Looking very sternly at Hannah, Lily, Remus, Sirius and James "Will see me for detention tonight!"

When she walked away, they started laughing again, they couldn't help it – it was the thought of McGonagoll being in love was too much to bear.

"Make that a weeks worth!" She snapped, looking behind.

They had surprised looks on their faces.

"Which means I'll have detention on my own." Remus muttered "Well apart from tonight!"

"Is it that time already?" James whispered

He nodded

"Damn!"

"Just get McGonagoll to move our detention." Hannah suggested

"Oh yeah, like that's gonna work." Lily said

"I need to speak to her!" James exclaimed, looking over at Rachel "I mean, she looks so lost and depressed."

They rolled their eyes - that was just like James, but, when they looked at her, they noticed he was right. Hannah noticed something, there was a tear slipping down Rachel's cheek causing a black line to form on her cheek, and there was a piece of paper crushed in her fist.

Hannah sighed and said to James

"I think you should know something."

"What?"

You know Amy?" Hannah started "Well she told Rachel something along the lines of your little challenge is gonna make you cheat on her."

James' mouth hung open in shock

"But I wouldn't!" He choked

"That's what I said." Hannah added "And I'm sure she knows something more."

The bell rang for the end of the lesson and Hannah went over to Rachel to see what was wrong.

"What's going on?" She asked

Rachel shook her head

"Give me the paper!" She said

Rachel sighed and handed over the paper.

"U ruin us 3! Ur an attention seeker! Ur a liar and I can't stand u! I'm surprised people like you, ur such a horrible person!"

"Amy?"

Rachel nodded

"I really don't know why you let her and Bonni get you!" She continued, "You don't need friends like them."

Rachel smiled slightly

"I think James is worried about you though, he says you look depressed and lonely and lost."

"And you agree with him?"

"Yeah." Hannah answered "I mean, you're letting all this get to you and I know you know more about all his James cheating on you thing."

Rachel didn't say anything at first but finally said.

"I think Amy's going to kiss James, just to spite me!"

Hannah gasped in shock and Lily who had also heard did too.

"Rachel you need to tell James!" Lily said.

"Why bother?" Rachel asked, Hannah and Lily looked confused. "Every lad I end up with always ends up falling for her and I know that she seduces them.

"Rach, trust me on this, James wouldn't cheat on you. Especially with one of your "best friends" – he's not like that. He's probably one of the only decent guys in our year." Hannah said, looking rather amazed at what she had just said, "Did I just say what I thought I said?"

"Saying James is one of the only decent guys in our year?" Lily asked "If so, then yeah."

Hannah shook her head

"Nevertheless though, it is true." Lily said

"To a certain extent!" Hannah smiled

The three of them laughed

"Best go anyway." Rachel said

"See ya later."

While Rachel headed off towards the Ravenclaw Common Room, Lily and Hannah headed for the Gryffindor Common Room.

"What took you too so long?" Sirius asked

"Try we had to take care of something!" Lily answered

"I still can't believe McGonagoll gave us detention!" James muttered "For a whole week!"

"Yeah, wouldn't mind but you three didn't get one!" Hannah and Lily said, looking at Peter, Clare and Carolyn

"Yeah, well we all know why I didn't!" Clare retorted, still mad about the fact that her mum was a teacher "Why did she have to come here? Especially this year – she could have come next year!"

There was a hint of malice in her voice.

"And there's us thinking that you loved your mum!" The girls joked

Clare stuck her tongue out at them.

"Time is it?" Sirius asked, feeling extremely bored.

"Six." Lily said

"Why has this day gone by so slowly?" The boys complained

"Dunno!"

"This will cheer you up though." Hannah said, taking a piece of paper out of her pocket "Malfoy's injured, he can't play on Thursday!"

"What!" James and Sirius said, gobsmaked "How do you know that?"

"Rachel!" Hannah said, "She.. erm…kinda broke his leg!"

"What?"

"Seriously?"

"She says that she would have told you but she's not talking to you!"

"Give me the note!" James said

Can't play. Serves him right. Shouldn't try 2 bribe me. Out 4 a week at least. Broken leg! He he! No one else!

"YES!" they cheered

"That gives us a chance since they have no reserve seeker!" Sirius added "And they can hardly train anyone within the space of two days!"
