Yep, I didn't edit this at all, I was waaaaay too lazy :3 I hope it's still good and I get more reviews than I did last time.

Oh yeah, I'm also getting ready to put up and Louis X OC story so be on the lookout for that.

Aslinn's Point of View:

It was the first day of classes and I was groggily sitting at the table in the Great Hall. James was talking animatedly with Fred about Quidditch tryouts or something of that sort so I turned to look at Roxi. She was staring adoringly over at the Slytherin table.

"Who're staring so intently at? Considering that that's the Slytherin table and you're a Gryffindor," I giggled, patting her hand gently while I nibbled on a piece of toast.

Her cheeks turned red before she looked down at the table in defeat. "Can you keep a secret and promise me that you're not going to get mad?"

I nodded before turning to face her. "You're my best friend other than James. Anything you tell me will be kept a secret until the day that I stop breathing."

She leaned over and whispered in my ear, "I think I may have feelings for your brother, but if it's weird I can squash them down and we can completely forget about them."

I nodded quickly, "I don't care if you have feelings for him. Just know that he's a good guy but sometimes he gets easily overpowered. You have to make him feel comfortable in order for him to open up to you."

She nodded before turning back to her food. I felt someone place a hand on my knee under the table causing me to jump up quickly. I whipped my head over and saw James sitting next to me with a smile on his face.

"You're such a prick, I didn't know who you were touching me like that," I whisper-shouted. "What if I would've turned around and decked or hexed you?"

He just shook his head before piling his plate high with food while stuffing some in his mouth. I was thankful in that moment that I wasn't a Weasley; they were always so unattractive when they ate. Then again James wasn't that bad, I honestly don't think that boy could be unattractive.

"You would've felt terrible if you'd decked me. You love me and my face way too-" James said but suddenly his face contorted into a glare. "What do you want?"

I turned around to see Jinx standing there with that cocky little smirk of his. "I wanted to come over and ask Aslinn if she wanted to walk to class with me. I honestly don't see how that involves you though; I didn't quite catch your name."

"James Potter, I would say it's nice to meet you but my mother taught me not to lie," James sneered.

I caught Roxi's eye and she gave me a wink and a thumbs up before looking back down at her food. I picked up a muffin and threw my bag onto my shoulder, "That would be lovely."

I kissed the top of James' head before walking away with Jinx. I knew that I was going to regret leaving with him but I didn't want to let him and James continue to fight like that.

Like he sensed my discomfort, "I'm sorry for the altercation with the Potter guy. I'm a tad bit jealous of any boy that gets to be in your company."

I giggled before letting my hair fall over my shoulder like a wall between us. I hadn't even noticed that I did this until Albus pointed it out one day when I was being coy with James. Yeah, everyone in the Weasley/Potter family knew about my feelings for him, it was slightly pathetic.

When we reached the potions classroom Jinx took my wrist in his hand and pulled me to the side of the corridor. "I just want to thank you for not shutting me out. I figured I would completely be ignored and the rest of my school life would be hell here but you proved me wrong."

I smiled before pushing his shoulder, "A guy like you getting ignored? We're English not blind, you're completely gorgeous. Me, on the other hand, I have a toxic last name."

He took my hand in his and laced our fingers together, "I don't care what your name is or how the rest of the wizarding world sees you, I think you're beautiful."

I felt my cheeks heat up again but I was facing him so I couldn't let my hair fall in front of my face so I settled for looking down at my feet. I felt him take my chin in his hands and tilt my face back up to look at him. I took a deep breath before saying, "There's this little town near Hogwarts called Hogsmeade that we're allowed to go to every weekend. Do you want to go with me this weekend?"

I saw his eyes light up as he eagerly shook his head, "I would love to do that. I'd heard about that around school and was about to ask you to show me around. I guess fate had other plans though."

Someone let out a laugh when they caught sight of Jinx and me. I looked over and saw James walking towards us with Fred and Roxi close behind him. Poppy was running as fast as her short little legs would carry her trying to catch up with them.

"That would be your gang calling you back to them. I guess we'll talk later," Jinx said. Then he leaned in and kissed me lightly before whispering, "Till we speak again, beautiful."

I heard the familiar sound of Roxi whistling when she caught sight of what happened. I nodded at Jinx before running into the classroom and sitting at my usual table. I felt someone sit down next to me and caught the familiar smell of James.

"Hey Jamie, what's up?" I asked, getting out my parchment and quill.

He gave me a look and said, "Don't change the subject, Lyn. Judging by how close you and Jinx were you're not going to be with us at Hogsmeade this weekend, are you?"

I let out a nervous giggle before trying to let my hair fall between us but James was quicker than that. He gathered all of my hair in his hands and used it to fix my gaze on him. I'd known him way too long for this to be weird.

"No, I'm going with Jinx this weekend but the next one is all yours. Jamie, you're okay with that aren't you?" I asked, turning to look at him full on.

He twisted my hair around his hand and gave me the famous Potter smile. Then he dropped it before holding out a pinky to me, "I want you to promise me that next weekend you're all mine"

I giggled at his possessiveness before twining our pinkies together. "You're my best friend in the entire world. I guess I can take time out of my busy schedule for you."

"It'd better stay that way too, blondie. I need my daily gossip," he said, fanning himself and trying his best to look like a girl. When he saw my face he sighed and said, "I'm sorry I'm not as good at being a girl as Hugo is."

I rolled my eyes at his jab, Hugo was gay and his entire family never let him forget about it. Not that they weren't supportive about it, they just found it funny when he brought home guys that were more attractive than the ones Rose did.

"You're such a loser," I giggled, pushing his shoulder and focusing on Professor Slughorn who'd rambled up to the front of the room by now and was starting to teach.

I'd hoped that James would get the slightest bit jealous of the idea but he hadn't even reacted. His only care was that it was going to interfere with all of us hanging out this weekend. Maybe I was dumb to think that he'd ever really see me as anything other than his best friend.

I changed some of the characters so if you're curious to what they look like go check them out :3
