A/n: Hey, so I thought that I'd be going away for a few days, but in the end I only went away for one day. I wrote while I was gone and here's Chapter 7 (I'm halfway through Chapter 8!)

Review Responses:

Malaynamonkey2004: You're so nice! Thank you!! I always imagined Sirius having a humorous personality. You're right. The HP FFs are really popular. Mine is new so I think it might take a while. . .

Choc0 Chipz: You continue to write such nice things in the reviews! Thank you so much!! Line breaks are so annoying. If you never figure out how to do one, copy and paste (LINEBREAKLINEBREAKLINEBREAK)

I just figured out that I now have six people following my story. Whoo! (Look I know it's not that much but every time I get an Email from FF I freak out! Yayyy!)

So thank you Choc0 Chipz and Malaynamonkey2004 (of course!). And thank you Nekogurl888, RyleeGranger, XPi, and someone else for also following! The website says that I have six people following my story but I can't figure out who the sixth person is. . . Whoever I didn't say that's following this story please review or PM me so I can find out who you are. Everyone deserves a thorough thank you!

So now, Chapter 7!

Chapter 7

We both crash and fall on the floor.

"Sorry," we say in unison. We both laugh.

I stand up. "It's fine." I hold my hand out to her. "Here. Let me help you."

She took my hand and I helped her up. "Thanks," she says.

"No prob. Want to help me not get lost?"

She smiles. "To where?"

"The library."

"Shouldn't you be heading to your house?"

"I can assure you that I will not be able to sleep tonight if I don't look something up."

She sighs. "Alright."

"Thanks."

She starts a conversation. "So you're in Gryffindor. . ."

"Yeah."

"I asked people about Ilvermorny. Horned Serpent is supposedly the most intelligent house. Is that true?"

"Probably. Why?"

"No reason! I just thought. . ."

"That I'd be a Ravenclaw? I don't blame you. I guess I'll just be a smart Gryffindor."

"Yeah. You'll be great."

"Hopefully."

She smiles again. She points to a door. "That's the library."

"Thanks again," I tell her.

"Any time. Bye, Scott."

"Bye, May."

She walks away, leaving me alone at the entrance of the library. I try opening the door. Locked. "Alohamora!" I whisper, and the door opens.

The moment I come in, I hear a lantern drop. So I wasn't the only one who sneaked in. . . "Who's there?" I ask.

I hear a sigh of relief. "Get out of here," a guy says. "The library's closed."

"I've noticed. But I won't get in trouble about it." I take a step closer to where his voice is coming from. I look behind a bookshelf. An older Ravenclaw with blonde hair and green eyes is looking around the room, trying to find me. "But I have a feeling that you will," I continue.

He finds me at the sound of my voice and smirks. "You're the new student."

"Smart, you Ravenclaws."

"A good memory is nice to have. Don't think that being a new student won't get you in trouble for being here right now. I'm a prefect."

"Ah. Fifth year?"

"Sixth."

"Do you know May?"

"May Woodbridge? Yeah, she's in your year."

"I know. I met her on the train."

He frowns. "Don't get me sidetracked. I should take off points from Gryffindor."

I have no idea what that means. But I won't let him know that. "For what? Breaking into the library? Because you did that too."

"Did I?"

"I'm not an idiot, Ravenclaw. So how about no one hears of this? This all never happened?"

He smiles. "What never happened?"

"Good." I looked at the shelf labeled O.

"What are you doing here, anyways?" the guy asks.

"I'm looking for a spell book, if you must know," I lie.

"In the O section?"

"Of course." I pick up the first book I see. Odd Enchantments. I tuck it under my arm.

"You're a quick thinker. I like that. You're smart. For a Gryffindor, anyways. I'm Ruscan, by the way. Howard Ruscan." (ROOS-on, like Tuscan, Arizona).

"Scott Wayward." I twist the doorknob to leave. "And you're dumb. For a Ravenclaw." I walk out and smile. I don't look back.

"I'm supposed to be looking for a painting of a fat lady," I tell a painting of a woman. "The other paintings said that it's supposed to take me to the Gryffindor Common Room. Do you know where it is?"

"You're looking at it," she snaps. "The other paintings think that I'm fat? I'll show them! Do you think that I'm fat?"

"I never would've guessed that you were the painting that they were talking about," I lie.

"Why, thank you! Password?"

"Uh. . ."

A redheaded girl steps in front of me. "Disolleparagnitehylologicalfungi-plant," she says.

The fat lady nods and the painting moves away revealing a tunnel. The girl climbs in and looks at me. "Are you coming?"

I nod quickly and follow her into the Common Room. The Gryffindor Common Room looks nice and comfy. The girl looks at me. "The boys dormitories are over there," she says pointing to the left.

I turn to her. "Thanks—"

She's gone.

With my book clutched in my hand, I head to the dormitories. I'm in room B5. I finally find the room and enter. "Hi, I'm— oh. It's you lot."

Sirius, James, Remus, and Peter are all huddled together on the floor. Another guy is on his bed reading a book.

"So I'm dorming with you?" I ask.

"B5?" Sirius asks.

I nod.

"Yep." He points to the bed next to the guy reading. "That's your bed."

"Right next to me," says Remus. He smiles.

I smile back. The guys continue talking and I flop onto my bed and sigh.

"Want to join us?" Remus asks.

"Five minutes. I'm exhausted."

Remus nods.

I look back to my book. Complete rubbish. I couldn't get a book about Occlumency with Ruscan looking. With a sigh I open the book to see if it isn't completely worthless. Maybe I could find some good spells. . .

A/n: Ruscan is pronounced ROOS-on, like Tuscan, Arizona. He's an OC that I used before and whenever my friends read about him they're like "Howard Ruscan," pronouncing it like Rus-ken. Rubbish. It's ROOS-on, ROOS-on!
