Betrayal : Part Two

Harry Potter & Co. Not mine. Duh.

Part Two!

Recap:

After that, her days fell into a happier pattern.

She had made friends with many people, but hung around Harry, Hermione, Ron and Ginny most often. She even sat with them at meals.

"So then I said, 'Parvati! That's ridiculous! EVERYONE knows that he DYED his hair. Dyed hair is NOT sexy." Ginny explained to Hermione.

"Oh, I know." She replied.

Ron rolled his eyes at Harry. "Girls."

Harry nodded.

Jana glared at them. "Hey! I'm a girl…" She glanced at Ginny and Hermione. "And I'm not giggling and gossiping…"

"…Yet." Hermione said, turning from her conversation with Ginny.

"What?" Jana asked.

"From what I heard from McGonnagal, your old school records said that you were a total Gossip Master. Everyone looked up to you because of that and you got in trouble a lot because you spread rumors about people." Hermione said matter-of-factly.

Jana laughed. "Okay, you caught me."

Ginny giggled. "Just wait until you hear about MIKE."

Ron and Harry looked at each other and rolled their eyes simultaneously. Twice.

Jana woke up on Saturday to a cold chill circulating the room she shared with Hermione, Parvati and Lavender.

Looking to the left of her bed, Jana found the window open.

Groaning, she pulled herself out of the warm covers and padded her way over to the window.

Just as she was about to shut it a sound came from outside the window.

It sounded like someone was being hit by a really really big object.

Curiosity aroused, she peered out of the window and found two boys on a large field that resembled a soccer or football field.

She realized it was a Quidditch field and laughed out loud.

One of the things she had missed the most from her other wizard school was Quidditch.

Taking a closer look, she realized that one of the boys had bright red hair while the other had black hair.

They were wrestling a small black ball that seemed to be moving. A bludger.

Laughing again, she stuck her head out of the window and yelled "Harry! Ron!"

They looked up at her and grinned.

"Jana! Come down!"

Jana nodded and turned back to the room after shutting the window.

She pulled on her black robes and made her way to the Gryffindor common room.

"Jana! Good, you woke up." Hermione called from the couch in front of the fire.

"Hey Hermione. I was just about to find Harry and Ron." Jana explained.

Hermione nodded. "I'll come with you, it's not like I have anything better to do."

Jana laughed. "Okay."

The two girls walked through their portrait hole and made their way down to the great hall to grab some breakfast, remembering to put some food in some napkins for Harry and Ron.

Unknown to Jana and Hermione, a pair of icy blue eyes were watching their every move.

"Dr-"

"Shut up." The owner of the eyes said sharply to the person beside him.

"Harry! Ron!" Jana yelled as she and Hermione ran to the boys.

"Hey!" Harry said.

"Oh look! Food!" Ron exclaimed.

Laughing, Jana handed him her napkin.

"You guys play Quidditch?" Jana asked excitedly.

"Yeah, do you?" Ron asked through a mouthful of food.

Jana laughed. "I was more of a watcher than a player, but it was something that I really liked at my other school."

Swallowing a lump about the size of an apple, Harry said, "You should try."

Jana raised an eyebrow. "Here? Now?"

Harry nodded.

"I don't have a broom."

He silently handed her his broom.

Jana suddenly felt butterflies in her stomach. "Ehhh... are you sure this is a good idea?"

"Yeah. Come on. It'll be fun." Ron said.

Jana's mouth felt dry. "For you when I fall." She muttered.

Hermione giggled. "You won't fall, silly. You'll be fine." She assured.

Jana smiled, and mounted the broom.

She kicked off of the dirt ground and felt herself soaring, 10 feet, 20 feet... above the three small figures standing and gazing up into the sky at her.

She felt the elation of flying, the unfamiliar swooping sensation in her stomach.

Grinning, she tilted the head of the broom forward until she landed safely on the ground.

"See? Was that so bad?" Hermione teased her.

Jana laughed.

Ron had a look of admiration in his eyes. "You should try out for the Quidditch team! We need some players now that people have left!"

Harry agreed.

Jana shrugged. "I dunno. I don't really think so. I'll be much more content just in the stands cheering you guys on."

Hermione grinned. "And this way, I won't be all alone!"

The weekend came and went, and soon the students found themselves loaded down with books as they ambled around the school to their classes.

Jana was becoming more and more familiar with the building and was more comfortable now that she knew her way around and that she knew more students in her classes.

"Now that we have finished reviewing in notes what you all should have learned these last five years, we will review in practice the charms that you should have learned." Professor Flitwick said excitedly to his Monday morning class.

Jana groaned. She could feel a headache coming on; charms had been easy enough at her old school but it seemed so much more advanced now.

"Now everyone, we will start with a simple Wingardium Leviosa spell and work our way up to the more complicated--"

Jana zoned him out and laid her head on her desk, doodling little designs onto her piece of parchment.

It was going to be a long year.

And part two!

Good? Bad? So-so?

Review please!

This part wasn't really that important, but I'm kind of stumped about how to bring the basic plot of the story forward. So for now... just a chapter filled with... well... nothing. :)

Thanks for reading!
