The tinkling of bell's, once again, greeted her as she entered the brightly colored and warm shop.

" Hello deary, is there anything I can help you with" said the kind lady from behind the counter.

"No, just restocking my sugar stash" kole said looking around eagerly.

' Ah, you and every other student here." the lady said chuckling

Kole grabbed a basket and started loading it up with frogs, berttybott's every flavored beans, and red licorous wands when someone came up from behind her and put there hands over her eyes which caused her to jump about a foot in the air . Then she heard oddly familiar laughter, she grabbed the hands and took them off her eyes and turned about to see Cody laughing

" Kole' you jumped like a foot in the air" he said still laughing throwing out his signature smirk.

" Mate, that wasn't cool you scared the hell out of me" she said fighting the urge to laugh and doing a very bad job of it.

finally she broke and started laughing with him.

" Hey , I'm sorry if I scared you but you were just sitting there and I couldn't pass up the chance" he said calming down a bit. " she looks pretty when she laughs" he though

" Fine, but watch your back when you least expect it ill be there" she said in a faux serious voice still giggling which sent them in to another fit of laughter.

Kairi and Saoirse were just bout enter the shoe shop when someone called their names they turned around to see Bane walking toward them.

" Oh, hey Bane" said Saoirse

"What's up' Kairi asked

"nothing much just needed to ask you something" he said " do you know if kole like's anyone"

"Why" said Saoirse looking at him appraisingly

" OH no not me" he said seeing the look Saoirse and Kairi were giving him" was just wondering"

"Yeah, right why do you really want to know" said Saoirse raising and eyebrow.

"because I have a friend who happens to have his eye on certain friend of ours" he said smiling knowingly

"WHO" they both yelled at the same time

Then they heard a scream from behind Bane and they all moved to see what was going on. A second later they saw Kole sprinting around the corner toward them with Cody a few feet behind her. Then Kole ,being as graceful as ever, slipped on a patch of ice and went sliding face first into a large pile of snow , while a laughing Cody went to go help her up.

"Oh there he comes" said Bane looking at them with some strange look in his eye.

"You mean ..." said Saoirse

"shhh" said Bane turning and walking toward Kole and Cody.

" Oh my gosh" said Kairi

"yeah" said Saoirse" should we tell her?"

"No, lets see how this pans out" said Kairi smiling as kole walked toward them out of breath and covered in snow.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

" well that was a fun day" said Kole" But my feet are killing me"

" Your feet, I'm the one wearing the converse here" said Kairi

" well my feet hurt too, but I really love my dress and the orange shoe's match perfectly" said Saoirse" now all's I need is a date"

" yeah, me to" said Kairi and Kole

" come on we can put all this stuff in our room and then we can go to dinner." said Kole

"yeah, I'm starving, I could..."

" Kairi..hey Kairi" said a voice from behind them " Kairi wait up"

All the girls stopped and turned around and saw Ben running up behind them.

" Kairi can I talk to you" Ben said catching his breath as he finally caught up with them

"Yeah" said Kairi

" Kairi we're gonna head up to our room you can just meet us there then we can o to dinner" said kole walking away and taking Saoirse with her

"lucky" said Saoirse

" yeah" answered Kole

just as they we're about to climb the grand stair case they heard someone running up behind them then they both felt a slamming force hit them in the back and nock them to the ground.

" AHHH!" screamed Kole and Saoirse

"What the bloody hell was that for" said Saoirse

" HE asked me, he asked me to the dance " screamed Kairi

" Go Kairi" said Kole getting up

"we want to hear all about it, every word, but at dinner and after we put these bags away cause I'm starving need I say it again" said Saoirse

" I second that " said Kole

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

" What were you talking to Karir and Saoirse for" asked Cody as he and Bane were walking back to school

" I was trying to see if I could find out if she liked you or not" he said

" well did you" asked Cody

"No, I was about to, but then you and Kole came running in' said Bane walking back to school " Mate just ask her to go to the Ball with you"

"how" Cody asked kicking a pebble on the ground in the grass.

" Just go up to her after practice or class or something and ask her how hard can it be" Bane answered.

"very " he said

"Mate just do it she's kole she's cool she won't make a scean of it or anything just ask her" said bane

" yeah I guess" said Cody

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

" great we're gonna be late" said Kairi as the ran down the dungeon stairs

" Well you just had to go touch up your hair didn't you" yelled Saoirse close behind her

"Well Ben's in our class and I want to look good" she said

" Fine, whatever but if we're late you get to take the blame" said kole

The last bell rang just as they ran threw the potions room door

" cutting it a little close again aren't we ladies" said Prof. Granger

" sorry Prof." said kole taking her seat at the very back next to Cody , Kairi and Saoirse taking the table next to there's." we seem to be doing that a lot lately"

"it's ok just don't let it happen again" she answered

" yes Mame" they coursed

" yeah, kole cutting it a little close aren't we" said Cody mockingly while smirking down a her.

" Shut-up" she said hitting hit in the arm

" hey I'll need that arm form practice later" he wined jokingly rubbing his arm, even though it hadn't hurt.

" Attention students, now today students we are going to be making corpus totalios which is a potion that causes the drinker to be able to fly . I will put the ingredients and the instructions up on the board you will have 90 mins to complete the potion." said Prof. Granger

" cool, I've always wanted to make this one I'd love to be able to fly" said kole

" Kole you have a firebolt 2 racing broom, the best in the wizarding world, and every Monday threw Friday and then some you get to race around on it ,I'm sure you get the same feeling." said Cody looking over at her

"well with a broom you can only do so much I want to feel complete freedom" she said stretching her arms out to her side in imitation of a bird

'" ok what ever you say" said Cody grabbing his ingredients

" Hey Kairi" said Ben blushing a little

" Oh hey" Kairi said blushing a lot

"well,well,well what was that miss Kairi" said Saoirse

" yeah what was that" said kole smiling evilly, Cody laughing at the girls

" shut-up, you guys" said Kairi turning a brighter red

They spent the rest of the class mercilessly teasing Kairi and mixing their potions.

" ok students please turn in a sample of your potions before you leave" said prof. Granger " and if there all made right next class you get to try them,"

" Oh my god that's so cool" said Kole turning in her potion." I can't wait till our next class"

"Kole, hate to break it to ya but that's after break remember" said Saoirse

" Bloody hell" she said as they walked out the dungeon door

"Kole watch your language" said Cody mockingly

" Shut-up" said kole hitting him once more

After potions kole, Saoirse and Cody had divinations and Kairi had ancient ruins.

" see you guys later " said kairi walking toward the south tower.

" see ya later" said they said

a little later

" tell me again why are we still talking this class" Cody asked sleepily half way through class, as trelany was rambling on how some poor girls parents were going to be in a horrible knight bus accident.

" I don't know really" said Kole yawning eyes drooping

" great answer" said Cody

"any time' she answered lowering her head on to the table

"I'm so bored" said Saoirse sleepily

" Join the club" said Cody laying his head down on the table with a yawn.

the rest of the class was the same trelany predicting death and despair at every turn. Apparently Cody was going to die within the next 3 days, kole wasn't gonna survive the next quidditch game, and Saoirse was going to light herself on fire...again.

" See you guys I have to go to the library really quick, meet you in the great hall" said Saoirse running down the stairs

"ok bye" said kole

"Well glad that's over" said Cody

" Yeah, next year I'm dropping that class" said kole " I'm sick of being told I'm going to drop dead."

" Same here" said Cody

" now all we have left is lunch , charms, and astronomy and then sleep" said kole

" don't forget we have practice to look forward to" said Cody with faux enthusiasm laced in to every word

The team captain and seeker , Todd Williams, had bin running some pretty hard practices lately preparing them for their match against slytherin the week that they got back from winter break, he knew they were favored to win but wasn't going to take any chances

"Fun, I hope he doesn't make us do pull up's again I almost fell off last time" said kole remembering

"Oh come on I wouldn't let you get hurt, we need you how are we going to win without the best chaser we have" said Cody

"oh thanks Cody glad to know you care" said Kole laughing

And then for the second time in two days kole was knocked to the ground by a crushing force to her back.

"ok people this is getting really old" said kole looking up to see Saoirse grinning like a man woman.

" walk much summers" said Olivia and her groupies laughing at kole sprawled on the ground

" how's the hair coming still looks a little green( after there last run in during dinner) " she spat back as Cody helping her back up

" uhhh" she screamed running to the nearest bathroom

"you ok" asked Cody

" yeah I'm fine, what happened to not letting me get hurt?" she said sarcastically" that hurt, and that Olivia drives me crazy"

" yeah she's a complete prat but just think of it in a few short weeks we will be grinding her team in the pitch floor while you score's goal after goal on her" said Cody " and if it makes you feel any better I'll accidently send a bludger flying her way" he said laughing

" that would help quiet a bit thanks" she said " but what would be even better is if people would stop pummeling me to the ground" she said turning to Saoirse.

" TOMMY ASKED ME TO THE DANCE: she said jumping up and down

" congrats Sao, but was it nessieary to slam me in to the ground?" said Kole

" you go girl" said Kairi walking up to them

" I'm so happy I could dance in fact I think I might" she said as she started doing the sprinkler

" please don't" said Cody turning away from the horrible dancing.

" Yeah, stop before you imbares yourself and us" said Kairi

'Ok fine but when we get back to our room after lunch I'm dancing like there's no tomorrow." she said

"speaking of lunch, last one there is a rotten dragon egg" said Kole turning around and sprinting to the Great hall.

" your going down summers" said Cody running after her catching up quickly

Kairi and Saoirse looked at each other clearly stating that Cody really did like kole, then started running to catch up with the other two.
