When I walked into the common room I saw Dean sitting waiting for me once again and a wave of guilt came over me. ''I'm SO sorry Dean! Snape kept me in again because I forgot to do that essay thing!'' He gave me a slight, quivering smile and I ran over to give him a hug. After a little while I sat down beside him with my arms locked around his waist. ''Do you want to go and get something to eat?'' Dean finally spoke to me. I nodded and we made our way hand in hand to the great hall once again.

As I sat with an empty plate I saw that Dean looked angry once again, and sure enough when I looked up Malfoy was staring again, I glared and mouthed the simple word 'what' and he turned away quickly to talk to that Nott guy. I looked up at Dean and said ''Bloody freak he is! Anyway, do you want to come with me tomorrow to hogsmeade village? You know because you have to have a partner and all that?'' He smiled, suddenly cheering up and nodded.

After finishing in the Great Hall , Dean left with Seamus to go to the library and I was left wandering around the corridors with Lucy, ''I'm really very tired Anya, I'm off to bed sorry but you are free to come to the common rooms also?'' I glanced up knowing the truth was that she hated wandering around this place without a big group of people surrounding her, ''No, No I think that I might just walk for a while.'' she nodded and left, and so I started to walk around.
