Chapter Five:
Malfoy the Bouncing Ferret
The next morning Abella smiled as she hopped out of bed. Ginny never understood how she could be so cheerful in the mornings. Abella threw on her uniform before throwing her robes over that. She brushed her hair out before applying a little eyeliner and mascara to her eyes, with her favorite pink lip gloss. When she was finished she grabbed her bag and walked down stairs, to be met with an almost empty common room. Ginny followed shortly, and they walked to breakfast.
Abella pushed George and Fred apart, before sitting between them. They all pulled out their schedules, as Abella began munching on a muffin that had been on George's plate.
"Today's not bad...outside all morning." Ron said as he looked down his schedule. "Herbology with the Hufflepuffs and Care of Magical Creatures...damn it we're still with the Slytherins..." Harry complained about his schedule as well.
Abella smiled at her's. She had the same morning schedule as Ron, and double Divination with Harry. George made a comment about how, if she was older they would have class together, to which she just smiled at him.
The group parted ways, Abella following Ron to Herbology silently.
When Herbology was over Abella looked absolutely disgusted. "Pus, of all things pus."She gave a noticeable shiver as she watched Ron laugh at her. "It is not funny Ronald. "She pouted slightly as they headed to Hagrid's hut.
During Care of Magical Creatures Abella had paired up with Neville, both of them attempting to keep their heads as they were stung by the Skrewts that Hagrid adored, not to mention Malfoy glared at her the entire class period.
As they sat down to eat Fred and George appeared, all but tackling Abella. "Malfoy bothering you again?" George sat down with a frown.
"No, just glaring at me every three seconds. "Abella smiled at Fred as he leaned on her.
"Just stupefy him or something, no one would know it was you. No one knows you're a Free Witch, by the way when you have Moody prove him wrong will ya? He thinks you need a wand, and all that to perform magic. "George smiled at Abella as she nodded.
"A Free Witch? "Harry said positively confused.
"It means she doesn't need a wand, or even spells. Her magic just happens. It's rare." Ron explained as they beamed at Abella.
"Mum was so proud to find out we had the first one in a while in our family. "Fred smiled as he messed up Abella's hair.
"Oh hush up, it's not that special. Anyways we need to get to divination. "Abella stood up and walked off, her heels clicking on the floor.
"She may be my sister, but I love the way that girl walks. "Fred winked at Harry before they left as well.
During divination Abella got annoyed as Professor Trelawney kept telling her she knew Abella possessed the gift of sight. At the end of the lessons she had predicted Harry's death, Abella's first kiss, and Ron's embarrassment. Abella was the first one to leave the classroom, immediately heading to The Great Hall. As she joined the line Fred and George walked up and smiled at her.
"Rough day? "They both chimed as she smiled at them.
"Of course. "She giggled as Fred leaned on her again, almost knocking her over.
As they were waiting Malfoy walked over, showing them the Daily Prophet. "Look your father's in the paper Weasley." He began reading the paper, talking about how they got his name wrong, before insulting Molly.
"Oh you fucking snake! I'll kill you!" Abella had jerked forward, when George and Fred yanked her backwards. Harry and Malfoy began yelling, before Malfoy shot a curse his way. Suddenly, Abella watched as Malfoy turned into a ferret. Professor Moody stepped forward, his wand aimed at Draco the Ferret, speaking what sounded like non sense to Abella.
Abella gasped as the ferret began hitting the ground, before Professor McGonagall ran over to stop it. Once Malfoy was turned back to normal Moody marched him to the dungeons. Abella busted out laughing when Ron called him something that sounded like Malfoy the amazing bouncing ferret. Finally the line began moving, as Fred and George began speaking of Moody's class, and talking about Abella being a Free Witch, something Moody had said died out a long time ago.
The rest of the afternoon, and next few days passed without incident, except for Neville ruining another cauldron in potions, a subject Abella immediately offered to tutor him in, as long as he would help her in Herbology.
