When Illusions Subside
The Coo Coo's Nest- Chapter Five
"Kathleen you're on my shoe!" Rachel hissed.
"Well, I'm sorry, but I can't see!"
"This freakin' sucks!" complained Rachel as they climbed down the ladder from the Diviniation tower.
"Gah!" Kathleen landed on the floor with a thud.
"Kathleen move!"
She got up and stepped back, letting Rahel step down.
"That was worse than P.E.!"
"Oh hush Rachel."
Halfway down the entrance hall we met up with Rachel and Kathleen.
"Hey guys, how was Divination?"
"It scuked we had to climb a ladder!" complained Rachel.
"Really now..."
"I'm Serious!"
"Sheeshers..."
"Oh Eff you Lindsay."
"Yes, eff me."
She rolled her eyes. "Good God."
"No just Lindsay."
Jackie rolled her eyes and laughed. "You're just like your dad, Lins."
I smiled. " I know."
Kathleen groaned. "Can we just go eat?"
"Yeh, sure."
We walked into the Great Hall and collapsed at our diffrent house tables. Jackie at Slytherin, Rachel and Kathleen at Ravenclaw, and I at Gryffindor. I had no friends yet, not really, besides the girls and Randall. Suddenly two boys from the Potions class before now and a wavy haired girl sat down. The boys eon either side of me and the girl accross the table from us.
"Hey Lindsay, this is Hermione." Came Ron's voice.
"Hi." I smiled softly at the girl.
"So you're the girl Ron keeps talking about."
He flushed. "Am not!"
Harry and I laughed. "Mkay Ron." I smiled.
"Well, maybe a little bit." Hi slightly surrendered.
"That's sweet." my smile turned into a grin.
"Heh..."
"Hey Lindsay." came a voice.
Shane stood behind me.
"Hi Shane."
"Hey Shane." Smiled Harry.
"Hi Harry, Ron, Hermione...mind if I steal Lindsay for a little?"
Ron raised an eyebrow. "That Depends."
We all looked at Ron. "..."
"What? I don't think I trust this guy with 'our' friend."
"Erm..." Shane put his hand on my shoulder.
"Yes, it's okay Shane." Smiled Hermione.
"Okay, thanks."
I stood up. "I'll talk with you later guys." and then walked out of the Great Hall with Shane. Eyes watching us at every step we made towards the door before we made it out and outside in the cold.
