Chapter Three

"Buzz off Malfoy. We've got spells that could deform you forever." Said Teri, frowning.

"Well, look at that! Amazing! The Mud-Blood knows spells! I thought only the frizzy head did!" screamed Draco, his voice cracking.

Teri's eyes filled with tears but they quickly evaporated and her face twisted with anger.

Hermione too, was angry but she had an I'm-used-to-this kind of look.

When no one responded to Draco, he still had his nose up in the air and left.

"How terrible can Draco get? He's growing up to be even worse than that dreaded father of his." Said Ron, eyeing Harry's search in his bulging bag.

"Bloody hell! You've been too busy looking in that bag to even notice Draco was here, insulting me!" yelled Teri.

"Huh? What? Draco Malfoy was here? Um, ok then…" Mumbled Harry, still looking in his bag.

A few seconds later, Harry had a satisfying look on his face and tried to flatten his hair while everyone was staring.

"What?" asked Harry, with curious eyes.

"Oh Harry, NOTHING has happened. We've all just been staring at you looking in that messy bag of yours!" yelled Hermione, in the most sarcastic way.

"Oh, um… I'm sorry, uh, well at least I've stopped." Whispered Harry.

"Let's see what you've been looking for. Looks like you finally found it." Said Teri casually.

"No, it's nothing important. It's just some of last week's homework," said Harry.

Everyone gave a glance of disbelief, but no one said anything.

Rita had been looking at Harry's bag, since he sat closest to her.

She had seen a red and green bow tied on to what looked like a gift-wrapped rock.

'Maybe it's a gift for Professor Dumbledore, or Cho?'

Rita didn't say anything. It would be pretty rude and she would be acting like Hermione.

Teri was trying to get Rita's attention, but to Teri's eyes, she thought Rita was daydreaming of Draco again, so she gave up.

After everyone had finally finished their homework, they had realized it was 8:30 already. The date was also December 22nd. Teri had some of her Christmas shopping done but the group was going to go shopping on the 24th. Everyone had bags under their eyes and walked slowly to their dorms.

Teri still had her top bunk, with her old orange bear.

She noticed that Shade had been chewing on it since Teri and the group started their homework.

"Shade! No!" whispered Teri, pulling her beloved bear from Shade's beak.

"Repairo!" The orange bear was perfectly put back in shape.

The moon looked gray, and Rita had been brushing her teeth.

Finally, the two girls fell asleep.
