Chapter 5-Year 1
Recap: I change into my pajamas and slip under the thick covers on my bed. I smile as Winnie curls up against my chest, and close my eyes, falling into maybe one of the best sleeps I've ever had.
Maia's POV
"Maia! Wake up! I'm hungry and we have to go get our schedules!" I'm shaken awake by Hermione, who grunts as I push her off of my bed in annoyance. I'm not a morning person.
"I'm coming I'm coming, calm yourself," I grumble, before getting dressed.
"Maia hurry up!" Mione calls impatiently and I roll my eyes, fixing my tie.
"Just go without me next time if your gonna rush me. You can't rush perfection," I tease, flicking her on the nose and sliding my wand into my pocket.
"Shut up," She grumbles, and I laugh, linking arms with her. We make it to the Great Hall and I sit down across from her, piling food onto my plate. Two people slide into the seats beside me and drape their arms over my shoulders.
"Morning sunshine," They chorus together and I look up to see that it's Fred and George. No surprise there.
"Hey guys," I say and they grin at me.
"So, Maia, we needed to talk to you," George starts, smirking at me.
"How about we walk you to your first class and chat?" Fred finishes, stealing a piece of bacon from my plate. I narrow my eyes at him, snatching the half eaten bacon slice back, and finishing it. What? I don't care if he bit off of it. Bacon is bacon.
"Hmm, I'll consider it," I shrug and they raise their eyebrows, not saying anything else. Ron and Harry come running into the room, sliding down across from me.
"We woke up late," They both gasp, out of breath. I laugh and flick a grape at Harry.
"Should've woken up earlier. Most of the food is probably cold by now," I tease and Hermione shakes her head.
"Actually, there is a spell on all of the food, keeping it room temperature until eaten," She says and I playfully glare at her.
"Ok Miss Know-It-All," I tease and she grins sheepishly. Our schedules are handed to us and I observe mine.
"Ready?" Hermione asks and I nod.
"Yeah, let's go." I start to stand up and follow her, when I'm stopped by two arms grabbing me. "Hey!" I exclaim, causing Hermione to turn around and look at me. I glare at Fred and George who dry me past Mione and into the hall.
"You promised to talk to us after breakfast," They say and I roll my eyes.
"No I didn't. I said I'll think about it," I point out and they shrug.
"Well, we thought about it for you," They grin and I huff in annoyance.
"So, what's your first class?" They ask and I glance down at my schedule again.
"Um, potions," I say and they ooh.
"Good luck getting through class with Snape! He's a demon!" They say, wiggling their fingers in front of me and I roll my eyes.
"Whatever. Is that all you wanted to talk about? Teachers?" I ask with raised eyebrows and they shake their heads.
"Nope! We have something to ask of you," They start off and I narrow my eyes, nodding.
"Go on."
"We want you to be our pranking partner!" They exclaim, grinning evilly.
"No," I answer almost immediately and their smiles drop.
"Why not?"
"Because I would rather not get expelled in my first year," I point out and they shake their heads.
"You only get expelled if you're caught, which rarely happens, and usually if we are caught, we only have detention!" They explain and I bite my lip.
"I'll think about it," I say and they shake their heads.
"Nope! We need a yes or a no, so we can start planning our pranks!" They say and I groan. I tilt my head and consider it. It does sound fun.
"Fine," I sigh and they high five. What have I gotten myself into?
