HPatTch8: "this could all end I tears!"


The sun shone through the window in the girls' room. Hermione was the first to get up and was soon followed by Leisha. The two of them now stood at the door way of their dormitory waiting for Charlie, Katie and Alexia to join them.

"Come on everyone or you'll miss out on breakfast" Hermione warned as she pulled the covers off the three girls with her wand. In unison they searched for the blankets and recovered themselves and returned back to sleep.

"Let's just go Hermione, they may never wake up" Leisha informed as she started to head out of the room.

"Ok," Hermione pulled out her wand for the last time and cast a quick spell on each of the beds. "I've charmed the beds so if you don't get up in the next twenty minutes, you'll find a nasty surprise."

Both Leisha and Hermione headed downstairs where they found Harry and Ron waiting. Both were dressed in their Hogwarts robes like Hermione and Leisha were, but only Leisha wore her cloak to keep her warm.

"We were about to leave without you, what took so long?" Ron asked as they approached. Hermione glared at them and then continued walking out of the common room.

Harry then turned to Ron and answered his question, "girl stuff"

They had only just left the common room before they started talking again.

"So, how did you guys sleep?"

Both boys groaned in agony. Ron was so angry he had started to clutch his fists as of he was ready to punch something, or someone.

"I don't think they want to talk about it." Leisha told Hermione as Harry tried to calm down Ron who was scaring several first years with his anger.

The four of them headed down to the great hall and took a seat at the Gryffindor table. Ron instantly piled up his plate with food, as did Hermione and Harry. Slowly, a tired Leisha joined in and grabbed some food. Not long later, both Katie and Alexia came down and joined them for breakfast.

"Charlie said she'd be down in a minute"

"And you believed her?"

Alexia shrugged and then returned to eating.

It was several minutes later when Charlie came down, her pajamas were soaked and yes, she had worn them down to breakfast. They were bright pink and had the slogan "leave me along!" printed across it. She had even worn the fluffy pink slippers to keep her feet warm.

"Oh Merlin, not again" Leisha muttered

After Charlie had spotted her friends at the Gryffindor table she walked up to them and sat besides Leisha.

"That was horrible what you did to my bed, horrible and…. Cold!"

"I gave you warning"

"Yeah Charlie, you snooze you lose"

"That's not funny"

Charlie then tugged at Leisha's school cloak, which Leisha then gave to her to cover her dripping wet pajamas. Several of the near by students were starting to question Charlie's sanity because of the bright pink clothing she had worn down to breakfast. At least now with the cloak she could blend in with the other Gryffindors.

After they had all eaten their breakfast each one of them was given their school time table, the student handing them out was very confused when he got to Katie and Charlie.

"Are you two sure that you're meant to be here?" the boy asked

"Well we are here" Charlie snapped back

"It's just that you're not on the list I have. Are you two sure that you're in Gryffindor?"

"Oh Merlin no, we're in Slytherin"

"Oh that makes sense, oi Adrian, found you two more."

Another boy walked up to the Gryffindor table. If you asked Alexia later, she would tell you about his blue eyes and how the messy hair look really worked for him. She would then continue about how his uniform was not tucked in perfectly and how his tie was undone and how these were all signs of a rebel. Of course Leisha would then argue the he could just be lazy and forgot to brush his hair out and fix his uniform, but then alexia would argue about his cheeky smile that he, apparently, gave her and how no one but a rebel would smile like that. Leisha would just roll her eyes at her.

"What are you two doing here?"

"Well our friends are over here," Katie explained to him, "and the Slytherin table is all the way over there" she said as she pointed to it.

Adrian smiled, which apparently was directed at Alexia, "a fair excuse, just done let MaGonagall find you here. She can get a little, well annoyed"

"I'm sure it's nothing we can't handle" alexia told him, with a subtle glint in her eye.

"Ah Adrian, good to see that you've met a few of the girls that I was telling you about last night" Craig said as he walked from the Ravenclaw table and stood behind Leisha.

"Oh, so which one of you is the infamous Leisha Robinson."

Craig sat down next to Leisha, put his arm around her shoulder and the pulled here in close to him. Leisha glared straight at him. Although he was still smiling he took his arm off her. Leisha sat back up and started straightening out her uniform.

"It's a work in progress"

"I'm sure" Adrian said as continued to hand out the timetables to other students in Slytherin.

So while alexia finished swooning over Adrian, Craig had made himself quite comfortable next to Leisha.

"Craig?" Leisha watched as he took a plate and started serving himself. She wanted him off the table and hopefully away from her but instead he just turned and faced her.

"I'm sorry I forgot," he said, and then he suddenly kissed her on the cheek leaving Leisha stunned stiff. "Good morning my little sunshine"

"I'm going to kill you one day you know"

"I know"

Ron then pulled out his timetable and grabbed Harry's.

"Ok let's see what we've got here, Harry, you and I are pretty much the same"

"It seems that we all share transfiguration, charms, potions and defense against the dark arts."

"And we have to deal with Periwinkle today, perfect!" alexia said sarcastically.

Leisha really didn't look forward to today's classes, double transfiguration and charms then chants to finish off, today was going to be filled with using magic, not to mention having to deal with the consequences of last night. As she again gave Craig a warning glance to back off, Leisha knew that it was going to be a long day.

:i:i:i:i:i

Professor MaGonagall stood at the front of her first class of the year, sixth year transfiguration.

"As I have you all for the first lesson for the year might I say, welcome to Hogwarts. Now we are aware that the students of Castells have been taught wandless magic only, and unfortunately Hogwarts in unable to teach this form of magic. So you'll each be taught how to use your wand."

A square faced girl that was sitting near the back of the classroom raised her hand.

"professor may I ask, what will happen to those that can't do any other magic other then to type we learnt at Castells?"

"I'm afraid they'll have to be sent to another school, I believe it's somewhere in America"

Leisha could feel that Lloyd was watching her. She began to doubt whether she should have come to Hogwarts at all. 'At least I'll have lots of frequent flyer points' she joked to herself, 'you really have to stop doing that!'

"Now wandless magic is a very interesting form of magic," professor MaGonagall started, "would anyone care to give an example?"

Professor MaGonagall's eyes searched the room but no one was willing to volunteer. She had decided to pick someone when her eyes fell on Leisha. "How about-"

"I will professor" Lloyd then spoke up. Leisha muttered her thanks just loud enough for him to hear.

"Well alright then, show us what you can do"

Lloyd reached out a hand and stared at one of the brightly colored birds that sat on its perch up the front of the classroom. With a flick of his wrist the bird became solid ice. Everyone stared in shock at the bird.

"He turned it to ice!" a girl shrieked

"Only the feathers, I wouldn't want to freeze the thing to death."

The bird squawked and flew around the room before it landed on Charlie's outreached arm. She patted the bird's feathers to clam it down.

"I hope he didn't hurt the poor creature"

"Of course he didn't Charlie"

Again Leisha gave Lloyd her thanks before she returned her attention on the rest of the lesson, after all Leisha was going to find it very hard to transfigure textbooks into animals.

By the time the bell rung Leisha was feeling very light headed and she was more than happy to leave.

"Mr Potter could you please stay behind?" professor MaGonagall called out as she started to summon two chairs to the front of her desk. Ron wondered why Harry needed to stay behind and it seemed that Harry did as well.

"And you too Miss Robinson"

"Well this is it" she told her friends before walking over to the professor.

"Remember Leisha, innocent until proven guilty"

"You would say that."

Alexia gave Leisha the cheesiest grin she had as she left with the others out the door.

Leisha sighed, she was too hungry to try and explain why she hit Draco now, couldn't she do this later? Together, both Harry and Leisha took one of the seats that had been placed in front of the desk and sat nervously waiting for the rest of the other students to leave.

Professor MaGonagall then took her seat opposite the pair.

"Now, to why we are here-"

"Professor may I start by saying I'm really, really sorry about last night. But I do think that there's a mistake. I didn't hurt Potter, I don't understand the purpose of him being here really"

Professor MaGonagall looked over her square frames and stared at Leisha.

"Miss Robinson we'll get to the incident concerning you and Mr Malfoy soon, but I have other matters to discuss you Mr Potter here and yourself."

She then took a moment to re-gather her thoughts.

"Professor Dumbledore had an idea to break the tension between both Hogwarts and Castells. He suggested a game of Quidditch to break the ice. Miss Robinson, rumor has it that you're the fastest flyer from your school, that's quite a claim"

"I'm actually only the second. We……um…… lost the first"

"I understand"

"So what does this mean for me….um us" Harry added as he felt very left out of the conversation.

"The headmaster hopes that you two will come up with a team from your schools for a game on the first of October."

"That's not even a month away!" Leisha yelled at the top of her voice. "Professor, I've never actually played Quidditch before"

"I'm sure that Mr. Potter will be very helpful and answer any of your questions"

"And now the issue concerning Mr. Malfoy, Which I'm sure you are dying to explain. Earlier this morning we heard his side of the story but I hope you side is a little more…. Well simple"

Leisha told MaGonagall about how she came back into the common room and found Charlie and Draco bickering. She told her the insults they both had said and how angry they made her. She then explained why she had punched Draco Malfoy.

"I always told that boy that if he didn't keep his mouth shut he was going to get hit. Not that what you did was right either Miss Robinson"

"I know professor, I'm not proud of it" although secretly she was chuckling at the look on Draco's face.

"Well it seems that you've learnt your lesson, just don't let me find you bragging later on or it will be a month's detention. Now I believe that lunch is being served without us"

So as Leisha and Harry left the transfiguration classroom and the both of them were walking quietly side-by-side.

"Harry," Leisha started as she slowed down, "can I ask you something?"

"Sure" Harry stopped and faced her.

"Well, you see. I've never actually played Quidditch before, but like I know all the rules and how the jobs of the seven players the difference between that balls, but I've never jumped on my broom and decided to play the actual game. So I was just wondering if maybe you could help me with the Castells team and then, I don't know I could help you with the Hogwarts team I guess"

"I'd appreciate that"

:i:i:i:i:i:

Cho Chang was about the turn the corner when she saw Harry talking to the girl that beat up Draco Malfoy last night. Both she and Harry had stopped in the middle of an empty corridor so naturally Cho stopped to listen in on their conversation.

"Really?"

"Yea, but only if you want to"

"Of course, Harry I don't know what I'd do without you!"

Cho then watch the girl wrap her arms around him and then as Harry returned the hug. Cho immediately felt jealousy from this scene, and more directly that girl. The first day of school and Harry had already fallen for some other girl, the thought made Cho green with envy.

"So what are you doing this weekend?" Harry asked the girl.

"Nothing"

"Ok, we can meet in the common room then maybe go to the Quidditch pitch."

Cho could see their date, they'd walk, hand-in hand, to the Quidditch pitch. Then Harry would show off his Quidditch skills, maybe they would fly around together, and then they would escape to the stands for hours of snogging. Again Cho felt jealousy, that was the date she and Harry were meant to have.

The two of them were now walking down the passage way that Cho stood in. after composing herself Cho stepped out from behind the corner that she was hiding behind.

"Harry, it's been a while"

"I didn't hear anyone come past"

Cho gave a small laugh and pat Harry on the top of his head. Her eyes then turned on Leisha.

"Well Harry, aren't you going to introduce me to your friend?"

"Ok, Cho, this is Leisha Robinson, Leisha that's Cho Chang."

"But you've probably heard heaps about me already"

"I'm sorry no, but it's a pleasure to meet you" Leisha held out her hand. But Cho didn't respond to it, and neither did her gaze leave Leisha.

"Please excuse me I have some last minute homework to do"

Cho then suddenly turned on her heel and headed off to the library. From that moment both Leisha and Harry turned each other, and both of them had a look of confusion on their face.

"Friend of yours?" Leisha asked as they, again, started walking to the great hall.

"Um, sort of"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"She's um… my ex-girlfriend I guess"

Leisha snorted and stared at Harry to see if he was serious, and from the look on his face he was.

"Oh, that's odd"

"Why"

"Didn't see you as the type that would waste your time with all that romantic crap, which Charlie calls dating"

"Haven't you been on a date before?"

"Of course I have! Once….Charlie forced me to go…..it was terrible. The poor boy was nearly crying by the end of it"

"How did you manage that?"

"I just told him how much I didn't want to be there…..and I might have kicked him somewhere…"

"You're a very violent person you know that"

"You really think so?" Leisha asked with a huge grin on her face.

Harry sighed and shook his head as they had reached the great hall, they both took their seats at the Gryffindor table.

"There you two are!" Hermione said as they sat down.

"So Leisha," alexia butted in, "what did you get? A week? A month?"

"What, oh um… nothing" Leisha held her head as she could feel a headache coming.

"What!"

When Leisha looked up the whole school had stopped eating and was staring at her. Slowly she held her hand up and gave everyone a small wave. Knowing that they had been caught eavesdropping, they slowly turned back to their lunch and left the group to talk.

"So wait, are you really being serious?" Charlie asked slowly. Leisha nodded.

"How the bloody hell did you manage that?" Ron just blurted out.

"I should bring you along whenever I get into trouble. Which reminds me where's Rob and Lloyd?" Alexia stood up in time to see Lloyd and Rob walk into the hall. The both of them squeezed in and sat down in the middle of the small group.

"So, what's the sentence?" Lloyd asked as he grabbed a plate.

"She got nothing!" Charlie said in disbelief.

"Wow, you really can sweet talk your way out of anything" rob said before he stuffed his mouth with food. Leisha stuck out her tongue at her half-brother and then started to poke his arm.

"So what did Professor MaGonagall want with you Harry?" Hermione asked

"Well apparently, there's going to be a game of Quidditch, Hogwarts against Castells. Leisha and I have to organize the teams"

"A Quidditch game?" Ron thought over this idea

"What the hell is Quidditch?" Katie yelled at the top of her lungs.

"It's sort of a bunch of muggle games rolled into one while being played on brooms" Lloyd said off the top of his head. Leisha stared straight at him.

"Have you played Quidditch before?"

"Once or twice"

"Excellent, you're on my team!"

:i:i:i:i:i:

Later in the evening, to Leisha's pleasure, all the classes for that day were over. She had nearly fainted during charms, but was at least thankful that others were also finding it hard to keep up. Although chants with Madam Periwinkle was almost unbearable, but then again her classes almost always were unbearable. So as Leisha, alexia, Katie and Charlie returned to the common room they found a huge swarm of students hovering around the center of the room. Leisha followed the crowds' eyes and saw, hanging in a golden frame above the fireplace was a pair of dark green boxers with little snitches on the side.

"Umm…. What the hell!"

"How long has it been up there?" one of the boys asked another.

"No one knows no one's been here since lunch"

"Who's do you think it is?"

"Ok everyone," Charlie said as she stood up at the front, "here's the deal, no one knows how they got there, or who they belong to."

"So…… who wants to start the bets?" alexia said as she rubbed her hands together and looked around the room

"6 sickles on Glen!"

"13 on-

"–on Draco! I bet 3 galleons him!"

"6 GALLEONS ON POTTER!" Harry searched the room to find who yelled that out.

Then there was an uproar as everyone started betting on whose boxers had been framed on the wall

"What the BLOODY HELL is my underwear doing up on that wall!"

Everyone's heads whipped around to see Draco Malfoy turn red with rage as he stared at the green boxers.

"Well it looks like the girl with the red hair wins 15 galleons!" alexia said to break the silence.

"GET MY BOXERS OFF THE BLOODY WALL!" he screamed across the room.

"I'm not touching them" Charlie said as she crossed her arms.

"You'd have to be nuts to even consider going near them"

"That or Draco's girlfriend" Katie thought out loud. Several people in the room shuddered.

Pulling out his wand Draco tried to summon them back to him but instead the portrait now had strapped across it 'I am underwear and I belong to Draco!' everyone burst out into laughter. Again Draco tried to summon it back to him but as the spell hit the words were then spelt across every portrait in the common room.

Leisha looked around the room and then the look of glee on Alexia's, Katie's and Charlie's face. She rolled her eyes and grabbed a book to read, while ignoring the 'I am underwear and I belong to Draco!' that was written over the top.

:i:i:i:i:i:

Later that evening, while everyone was sitting down in the great hall for dinner, Charlie strode straight down to where her friends sat. In a huff she sat down.

"Alright, spit it out Lottie, what's wrong?" alexia demanded.

"Oh nothing," for a moment Charlie sat there, then she started complaining again. "You know what I don't believe, it's been nearly 24 hours since Draco and barely half the school knows, not only that but the rumors about the underwear are only just spreading-"

"Oh dear," Leisha mumbled under breath, "this could all end in tears"

"-I thought Hogwarts was known for gossip spreading, I thought that everyone would know about the boxers prank. I thought that I was going to a school where the people were like me!"

"What mad-gossip-hungry-vultures?" Ron choked as he heard this then burst out into laugher.

"But I'm serious guys, this is a big issue! Tomorrow I'm going to do something about it! I just need to figure out what" And for the rest of that night Charlie pondered over her big plan to fix the "problem".

By the next morning, as alexia, Katie and Charlie sat in divination, Charlie was already in the last stages of her big plan. Most of the students in the class either peered into their crystal ball or had fallen asleep due to the thick smell of incense that hung around the air. But Charlie, alexia and Katie had abandoned the trivial task of deciphering the images they saw, to them crystal gazing was 2nd year stuff.

Charlie had finished telling them her plan, but in order for it to work they needed to talk to Professor Dumb-elle-door, or however Leisha would say it.

The weird hippy-like teacher walked up to the three girls.

"Something tells me that you girls have something to say" these guess would have been impressive if all three girls hadn't had their hands raised, the universal signal for 'I have something to say'.

"Professor we've just had a vision!" alexia started,

"Do tell quickly! While it is still fresh in your mind!"

"NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO TRAVEL!" Katie screamed, now everyone's attention was on the three of them, " misfortune and suffering will come to anyone that does!"

"Isn't the head master going on a trip soon?"

"WE MUST STOP HIM!" Katie yelled dramatically again. And with that the three girls left the class room.

"Now children I do believe that those three girls have the inner eye!"

:i:i:i:i:i:

"So you just left in the middle of class?" Hermione asked them later during lunch.

"Well we had to ask him sooner rather then later"

"But in the middle of class!" Ron mocked in the same surprised tone that Hermione had when Charlie, Katie and Alexia told them about how they left their first divination lesson.

"Yes but that's besides the point…."

"Then what is the point?" Harry asked them.

"WE'RE STARTING A SCHOOL MAGAZINE!" the three girls yelled at the top of their lungs.

Leisha slapped a hand to her forehead, "oh dear"


And that's the end…. Hope you enjoyed it. And I hope that you can find the time to leave me a little (or big, whatever floats your boat) review.

Till next time peoples!
