a late start (it's the best way)

The train had barely been moving for ten minutes before Eloise took out a roll of parchment and a Muggle pen that Justin had given her for her birthday. "What's that?" Susan asked, glancing quickly at her friend.

"This? It's going to be the Transfiguration homework."

Ernie looked up from his book on Magical Creatures. "The Transfiguration homework? Why haven't you done it yet?" he questioned, narrowing his dark eyes.

"I didn't want to." Eloise shrugged. "I now realise that was a bad idea."

She pressed her pen to the parchment and started writing, to the bewilderment of her friends. "I thought you were the most studious of us all?" Hannah said timidly.

"Nope," she replied, chewing the pen. "Hey, Justin, is this right?"

Justin was all too happy to help his friend out, displaying more than one Hufflepuff virtue in that second. Susan rested her head on Ernie's shoulder, whom she had started dating this time last year. "Eloise is a puzzle sometimes," she murmured.

"That's what we love about her," Ernie replied, wrapping an arm around her.
