"GRYFFINDOR !" A burst of applause when the boy who had been sorted walked to the Gryffindor table to join his classmates. That was the last one for this year. Food appeared on the table and everyone started eating.
"Ten points to Gryffindor for producing a perfect Freezing Charm", Professor Flitwick cheered, "Well done, Miss Potter."
"How do you do that?" Rose asked me after Charms.
"It's just my thing", I smiled.
"Just your thing!? Emily, no one in class succeed this spell and you just wave your wand and produce a perfect one."
I smiled again, I had no explanation for this. I was just really good at charms.
"Mind your steps, Potter." A Slytherin boy, also second year, reached out his leg so I tripped and fell over. He and his friends were giving each other high-fives while I was trying to get back up and collect my books which had fallen down.
"Is everything alright?" From the corner of my eye I saw a red-haired boy who kneeled down and helped me back up.
"Are you hurt?" Percy asked.
"No, I'm fine, thanks."
"If it was me who would have been allowed of taking points I would have taken ten from each of them." He smiled at me, "Maybe I can ask Charlie to take some points of them." I smiled and muttered that he didn't have to.
"What's your brother Bill going to do now he graduates?" I asked Percy while studying Defence Against the Dark Arts.
"He wants to do something at Gringotts", Percy answered me.
Again it was Slytherin who won the cup.
"They have no right winning the cup!" Rose yelled. I laughed.
"Rose, calm down. It is this way, nothing we can do about it. I don't like it either."
"I'm sure it would have helped if points would've been taken from those Slytherins for letting you trip." Percy argued. Rose frowned and looked at me while my cheeks were turning red.
