"Hey Scar!" Layla called as the compartment door opened, forcing Rochelle out of her most distant memories.
Scarlett Howell walked into the compartment, followed by Katie Blakemore.
"Hey!" was her only response, Katie gave everyone a small wave before brushing her chestnut brown hair out of her hazel eyes.
Scarlett began reading a muggle book.
Sapphire and Grace talked about a 'fit' wizarding band.
Zoe, Jemma and Layla discussed the NEWT subjects they planned to take.
Katie and Tori laughed over several incidents in 3rd year.
Rochelle went for a walk.
The dark lord had set Sapphire and Draco a mission, but what was it? To kill Harry Potter? Collect information? Did Dumbledore know? What if it had something to do with Dumbledore?
She would never guess right, even if her life depended on it.
Rochelle would just have to wait until tonight, when she'd talk to Sapphire in private….
"Woops!"
"Watch it Mudblood!" a familiar voice growled. Rochelle internally flinched, and turned to face Blaise Zabini.
Did he know?
No one could know.
"Oh, Rochelle I'm sorry! I thought you one of those worthless Mudbloods that seem set on annoying us" Blaise explained, the panic slowly drained out of Rochelle.
"Clearly!" she replied sarcastically with a fake smirk plastered all over her face.
The familiar smile she loved brightened up his face.
She smiled back.
She wondered what would happen if he knew of Rochelle's blood status, would he run. Kill her? Shun her?
"So… perhaps you'd like to go to Hogsmead with me? On a date?"
Rochelle smiled so much, it may as well have been Christmas.
"Yeah sure!" she answered a bit too quickly.
"Next week? Saturday?" she nodded before skipping off down the train.
A date… with Blaise Zabini!
She entered the compartment, her smile faded… Katie and Jemma were arguing over something trivial most likely.
"SHUT UP!" Sapphire shouted "is everyone OCC today.
"Yep" a voice laughed. Rochelle hadn't noticed the addition. Rosie Winters.
Rosie had thick golden brown hair and dark grey, ocean blue eyes.
"Hey Rosie" she greeted as she was pulled into a hug.
"Hey Roche'"
