At the end of term, Molly and Lucy learned that their parents were going abroad for their anniversary, and that the girls had to stay at Hogwarts for the break. Heidi was quick to discover this, and stepped in straight away.
"Don't your parents want you, Loo-loo?" She squealed.
Molly was confused, and stood up for her sister. "But you're here too." She questioned.
"Oh, I'm staying with Patrice. My parents begged me to come home for the holiday but I wanted to stay with Patrice. And you too, Loo-loo!" She joked. She waited until Molly left to talk to one of her friends and hissed "Yeah right. Who'd want to be friends with a fat, ugly lump like you?" And with that, she strutted away, Patrice scurrying after her like a little mouse.
Lucy watched them leave as her heart thudded. Heidi was right. Who would want to be friends with Lucy Weasley? She started to realise that no-one had bothered trying to talk to her. Or had they, and she'd just pushed everyone away like normal. Like Roxanne had been saying. She was nothing special at all. She was terrible at all of her subjects. She had very poor social skills. And she definitely wasn't attractive. She sniffed up and pushed her hair backwards, getting her fingers stuck again.
There had to be some way to detangle her hair?
She pushed up her chin and made her way to the Gryffindor common room. Why was she even a Gryffindor? 'I bet the hat just saw me as a Weasley and put me into Gryffindor without thinking. I'm a blemish on this family name. I shouldn't be here. I'm not good enough...' Words like these ran through her head all day, and haunted her dreams too.
She dreamed that she was surrounded by people, but then shrunk and slid past them without them realising. Then she saw a hug foot stomp next to her, trying to catch her. "Come... Here... You... Worthless... Piece of... Junk..." She looked up and saw Heidi, 50 feet tall, and a floating pig oinking next to her as she stomped harder and harder. "No-one cares about you!" The feet got closer and closer to hitting Lucy each time. "A fat, ugly lump like you! Just go AWAY!" the foot came down on top of Lucy and she awoke with a jolt. She sat up suddenly and hit her head off the bunk above her. Of course, it wasn't occupied. Even her own cousin Roxy didn't want to share with her. She was on a bottom bunk somewhere across the dark room.
