Here's the new chapter. : )

Chapter 5

Last Time:

Alex and Ramona are back at their second home and are happy it is the summer. Ramona, Alex, Hermione, Ron, the twins, and Ginny are playing Quidditch. Hermione is the ref and there are the Knights (Ramona, Ron and Alex) versus the Wildcats (Ginny, Fred and George). Jerry used to be a pro Quidditch player and taught his kids all his moves.

After the game ended the Knights won by 30 points.

"Kids! Time to go!" Molly calls. Since it is July, the Weasley's are moving the kids all to their new home for the summer. It is because Voldemort is back and Snape, Jerry, Justin and Max comes and reports the next movements often.

Jerry told Ramona and Alex that Max will be back at Hogwarts next year. But since Justin just finished, Dumbledore agreed that he will have Justin as a guard for Hogwarts to keep the family together.

And so, that summer has been the most boring summer of all the years. The kids were not allowed outside and they had to be quiet.

Now:

Alex and Ramona are sitting together on the couch by the fireplace. Tomorrow is the first day of school and everyone is running around getting ready for the train that is leaving in a half hour.

"Beezus?" Ramona whispers. Alex turns to Ramona to see fear in her eyes.

"What is it lollipop?" Lollipop is Alex's new nickname for Ramona. Ramona giggles and hugs Alex around her waist.

"I'm scared" Ramona whispers. Alex sighs and kisses her cheek.

"You have me and Max at school Rye" Alex hugs Ramona tighter not letting her go.

~A&H~

Alex is currently staring out the window watching as trees fly by. Ramona is currently sleeping with her head on Alex's lap and Ron, Harry and Hermione are sleeping, watching the scenery and reading. Alex looks at Ramona and strokes her hair. That second, the door opens.

"The rumours are true. My best friend is back" Alex looks up to see her best friend from her first year.

"Hey Johanna" Alex smiles. Johanna smiles and hugs Alex, before looking at Ramona who is staring at her in fear.

"Who's this Al?" Jo asks Alex. Johanna is in Gryffindor with Alex and is in the same year and age.

"My little sister" Alex smiles and hugs Ramona as she sits up and curls up in her side. Ramona tightens her grip on Alex's shirt scared.

"Hi" Jo smiles and waves. Ramona bites her lip and waves a little. She then hides her face in Alex's side. Alex kisses Ramona's head before looking at Jo.

"She's really shy" Jo nods and looks out the door.

"Well, my other friends are waiting" Alex nods.

"See you later" Jo waves goodbye and walks out the door. Ramona looks at Alex and shakes her head.

"I don't like her" Ramona whispers to Alex.

"Why?" Alex asks Ramona looking at her shocked.

"A bad vibe" Alex nods.

"Most of the time your bad vibes are right. I just hope this time its wrong" Alex sighs.

~H&A~

Alex is currently sitting with Harry, Ron and Hermione at their table watching the sorting.

"I hope Rye won't get in Slytherin" Alex mutters crossing her fingers.

"Russo, Ramona" McGonagall calls up. Ramona walks to the stool and sits down. The hat falls on her head.

"Another Russo. Justin is evil like Jerry and Theresa. Theresa was placed in Slytherin. Your whole family is in Slytherin besides one. That one is in Gryffindor. Your uncle was in Slytherin. Max is in Slytherin and evil. Your sister Alexandra is in Gryffindor and good. I wonder what went wrong with your family..." the sorting hat starts, "let's see which house you want to be in?"

"Anything but Slytherin" Ramona chants in a whisper.

"Anything but Slytherin eh? I guess you are like your sister more than anyone in your family"

"Ally" Ramona whispers looking at Alex. Alex stares at Ramona in return and sees tears in her eyes. Alex smirks and mouths 'I'll be waiting under the mistletoe'. That small line makes Ramona smile. It is her new favourite song called Home This Christmas by Justin Bieber featuring The Band Perry.

"Now what house is good for you? Hufflepuff and Slytherin are out of the question" Ramona and Alex grins when hearing this. Alex gives Ramona thumbs up, "how about..."

Ramona bites her lip staring at only Alex.

"GRYFFINDOR!" McGonagall lifts the hat off and right then, Ramona runs to Alex and hugs her tight. Alex laughs and makes Ramona sit down beside her. Alex wraps her arm around Ramona's waist, knowing Ramona will not leave her side until the morning.

~H&A~

After a long boring speech, a pink person talk in a squeaky voice, and everyone whispering to each other, everyone was dismissed to go to bed.

"Who the heck was that?" Alex asks her friends as they walk up to Gryffindor tower. Ramona is holding Alex's hand tightly rubbing her eyes tired.

"Delores Umbridge" Hermione answers.

"Huh?" Alex looks at her.

"The ministry are interfering with Hogwarts this year" Alex nods.

"Ok" Alex bites her lip but can't keep a smile forming. Her friends and sister looks at her like she's nuts.

"What's wrong with your face?" Ramona asks tired. The five of them approaches the entrance to Gryffindor Tower.

"Huh?" Alex repeats and looks at Ramona.

"You have a creepy smile on your face. It looks like you are going to murder someone" Hermione says the password as Alex and Ramona argue over the 'creepy smile'. The five of them sits at the fire and the other three listens to the playful fight.

"MY SMILES ARE NOT CREEPY!" Alex laughs placing her feet on the coffee table and stares at Ramona, who is on her right in the same position.

"Yes they are" Ramona smiles, her tired look already gone.

"Nope" Alex shakes her head.

"Ha! I won!" Alex cheers.

"YES!" Hermione jumps to her feet, "in your face" Hermione takes Ron's and Harry's money. Ramona and Alex stares at Harry, Ron and Hermione.

"You bet on us?" Alex and Ramona ask together.

Lol that seemed like a good place to end. Please review.
