The group finally arrived up at school. Walking in they saw Harry, Ron and Hermione wander over to one of the tables. They looked around, to find three other tables. At one of those tables sat the Ferret, or rather Malfoy.
"Excuse me, would you be the Misses O'Brien and Grant?" said a very tiny wizard with a squeaky voice.
"Yes we are." Replied Ellen, as Camille seemed to be trying to keep a straight face at the tiny wizard's appearance.
"Oh, good good. I am Professor Flitwick, the deputy head here at Hogwarts. Headmistress McGonagall asked me to find you, will you please follow me as you need to be sorted into your houses." The girls followed the tiny professor into a small chamber which was also occupied by rather a lot of first years, all of whom were looking rather nervous.
Meanwhile at the Gryffindor table.
"What do you guys think of those two girls? Ellen and Camille, the Australian ones." enquired Hermione.
"I like Ellen. She has Dad's nick name. And besides she's cool, I like her." Said Harry looking around to see if he could see where she went.
"Yeah I think they are awesome, much better than Fred and George, and she insults Malfoy, I like her, wonder where they went" said Ron also looking around.
"Well they will have to be sorted wont they Ronald" said Hermione, as though she was explaining it to a three year old.
Just as she said this Professor Flitwick walked in, followed by the first years (many of whom dwarfed him) and right at the end of the line were Ellen and Camille. As soon as they walked in they had the attention of most of the male population, and their jealous girlfriends.
They reached the front of the hall, first years peering around nervously. Camille and Ellen had however stopped in mid walk to flirt with a couple of guys sitting at the Ravenclaw table.
"Ahem… um girls this way please you need to be sorted." Said Professor Flitwick, getting the girls attention as they returned to the line, at the end. They looked around to find Harry and Ron staring at them. They waved and mouth a "hey" only to receive one back and Camille getting a glare from the Slytherin King.
The sorting took only a short while as there were only a couple of first years because of Voldemorts new reign of terror. Soon enough it was the girls turns.
"This year we have two new students who will be joining us in seventh year, Miss O'Brien would you care to come forward." Said Flitwick, Ellen walked forward and sat on the tiny stool and waited for the sorting hat's decision. Almost like with the Slytherin King now, the hat cried out "GRYFFINDOR" almost before it had even reached Ellen's head. Cheers erupted from the red and gold table, Harry yelling the loudest.
Ellen ran down to take a seat next to Harry. Flitwick turned to face Camille.
"And now Miss Grant" he finished gesturing to the small stool. Camille walked over smirking a smirk to rival Malfoy's and took a seat on the tiny chair. The hat was placed on her head. This time it took its time in deciding where to put the trouble maker.
"Hmm another difficult one, you posses real talent, to be situated in Ravenclaw… but that is no house for you. Brave and cunning and conniving, all these can have you put in either Gryffindor or Slytherin. But that is the question… where to put you…? I know it will be SLY – GRYFFINDOR!" It finished after what seemed like and eternity. Once again the Hall erupted in cheers as Camille made her way down to where her counter part was seated. This time Ron was the one heard over all the cheers.
McGonagall stood once Flitwick had cleared away the sorting equipment and had taken his place.
"Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts. To our old students welcome back, to our new ones, welcome. As usual Filch the caretaker has asked me to tell you that any sort of magic in the halls is prohibited and a list of some six hundred items posted on his office door is also prohibited. Quidditch trials will start next week, see your house captain for that. As for now, I shall let you begin the feast." She finished.
"FINALLY!" said Ron and Camille in unison.
The school ate and drank until their hearts contempt. Harry, Ron, Hermione, Ellen and Camille were all making small conversation when the Slytherin King came over to the Gryffindor table.
"You know Prongs, I thought that Lola was a pretty good cook but the food here isn't that bad." Said Camille not noticing that Malfoy was walking over.
"Yeah I guess it isn't that bad. Um you have a visitor Padfoot." Said Ellen looking towards Malfoy.
"What, oh right." Camille replied turning around to face Malfoy. "What do you want, you know that this is harassment right?" she asked.
"I just wanted to talk Camille"-
"I told you it's Grant to you. What do you want; you never tell me what you want"
"I just wanted to see if you wanted to meet up some time?"
"No sorry can't busy all the time, school work you know, takes a lot of time… well not really but I like to do my research." Said Camille not noticing Hermione's look of liking at the girl.
"What. You can't be doing school work all the time surely." Malfoy said.
"No you're right, I'm going out with Ron and tutoring him" said Camille looking at Ron and grabbing his hand.
"Weasley, you are going out with WEASLEY?"
"Yeah you have a problem with that, I mean he is way nicer than you… doesn't have as big a temper… might want to control that Ferret" said Camille, at this point Ellen, Hermione, Harry and Ron had burst out laughing at Malfoy's face.
"Fine then, seeing as you can't see who is better I will leave you there Camille."-
"IT IS GRANT TO YOU MALFOY!" bellowed Camille turning back to look at her friends who were staring at her… "What?"
"Nothing" they all said.
Soon after the feast was finished every one was leaving. Ellen and Camille however already new the password… some how and it wasn't from Hermione. They went wandering around the castle. After a couple of hours of memorising and finding every single secret the castle held. They returned to the Gryffindor Common room to a very nervous looking golden trio.
"Hey guys what's up?" asked Camille.
"WHAT IS UP? I'LL tell you what is up Grant, you two didn't come and we didn't know were you were, we went looking for you but couldn't find you." Said a highly annoyed Hermione.
"So you're telling me you didn't even use the map?" asked Ellen
"How do you know about that? You haven't been here that long" said Harry amazed at how much these girls new.
"Um, well we went looking around the school, memorized where everything is, checked out Filch's list and office, we saw that there were draws dedicated to our predecessors and their predecessors. So we figured that one of them would've made a map of this place given the fact that they were mischief makers in chief in their time…" said Camille.
"Oh right, sorry, well we didn't use the map. It didn't cross our minds to use it" said Ron.
"That's cool Ron, anyway me and Prongs are gonna head to bed. We need to discuss some things to do with Malfoy." said Camille. "Night"
"Yeah good night guys" said Ellen, the girls turned and started to walk over to the girls' stair case when Ron stood up.
"Hey Camille, can I talk to you quickly?" Ron asked.
"Sure, don't wait up Ellen, I will be there soon" said Camille as she turned and walked to Ron.
"Ok, but don't be too long." Said Ellen disappearing up the stairs. Camille walked over to Ron only to be steered away from Harry and Hermione to the other side of the fire place.
"What is on your mind Ron?" asked Camille kindly
"Um, were you serious about going out with me and tutoring me when you were talking with Malfoy, or was that just a joke and something to get him off your back?" he asked timidly
"Oh my gosh, Ron I'm so sorry if that came out wrong"-
"It's ok I understand" said Ron sadly, he started to walk back over to Harry.
"No Ron, I mean I was serious, I was just sorry if it appeared not serious." Said Camille, Ron turned to face her again.
"So you're serious then? You really want to go out with me?" he asked, a small smile creeping onto his face.
"Yeah, why not… I would love to, not just to get at Malfoy, but because I think I like you and we could have a lot of fun together." Said Camille smiling.
"Really? Wow! Ok so how about the next Hogsmead weekend then?" asked Ron
"Sure I would love to, but I must be going I need to talk with Ellen." Said Camille turning to walk away when Ron grabbed her wrist.
"Not yet" he said, he pulled her in for a hug and kissed her on the cheek. "Now you can go. Good night Cam." He finished.
"Good night Ron and you can call me Cammy if you want. I don't mind"
"Good night." Said Ron walking back to Hermione and Harry. Camille smiled to herself and walked up the stairs to her dormitory.
In the Common room.
"What was that about Ronald?" asked what appeared to be a jealous Hermione.
"Nothing, I just have a date for the next Hogsmead weekend is what that was about" said Ron slightly dazed but smiling.
"Yes but what was with the kiss?" said Hermione
"Obviously they are going out 'Mione, I thought that that was obvious" said Harry setting up a chess set that he found.
"What ever Harry." Said Hermione leaning back into her chair and reading.
"Ooh, looks like some one has the green eyed monster on their back…" said Harry, laughing and nudging Ron.
In the girls Dormitory.
"Geez Padfoot what took so long?" asked Ellen when Camille came in.
"Nothing…I." started Camille also with a dazed expression on her face.
"You what? Are you going out with Ron? Please tell me you are?" asked Ellen sitting up on her bed. Camille smiled and nodded her head.
"OH MY GOD! Our Padfoot here has a boyfriend… and about time too. Though I guess it's a good thing you have one this early… we are gonna be popular soon… the same thing happened at White Sands who is to say it wont happen here." Said Ellen excited.
"Yes, nice excuse about coming up with something about Malfoy… I personally think that her headship needs to loosen up… this is what I propose…" said Camille, trailing off into a whisper so that no one but Ellen could hear her.
