Chapter 5
As the sun rose it filled the room with pure sunshine, awakening Mildred, Maud and Enid.
The girls got up and began to get dressed for class when Mildred noticed a small package on her night stand.
"Hey, what's that?" asked Mildred, pointing at the package.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you." Said Enid "When you were in detention last night this little package came for you."
"Who was it from?" asked Mildred.
"Don't know" said Enid "It just says to Mildred Hubble, It doesn't say who it was from"
"I wonder what it is" said Maud.
Mildred opened the package and it was a beautiful golden heart-shaped locket with an emerald in the middle.
"Wow, it's beautiful" said Maud
"Yeah it is. Isn't it?" said Mildred "I wonder who sent it"
"Well in my opinion," said Enid "I think it's from Harry."
"I think so too," said Maud.
"What?" exclaimed Millie, "Don't be silly."
"Oh come on, Millie. You guys have been really friendly to each other ever since we got here and we've seen the way he looks at you if he doesn't have a crush on you then I don't know what it is. There really isn't anyone else I can think of who could've sent it." Said Maud
"And besides," said Enid "We all see the way you look at him as well. Admit it you like him too"
Mildred smiled at herself. She had to admit it she had developed a small crush on Harry since they met and became friends and was hoping that maybe he felt the same way.
"It would be nice if it was from him but it just seems too good to be true" said Mildred.
"Don't worry I'll investigate" said Enid "Today we have potions and since I've already worked with Ron and Hermione I'll be working with Harry today. Then I'll casually let it slip that you got the locket and ask if he knew anything about it then I'll report back."
"Oh please don't, Enid" moaned Millie
"Oh come on Millie," said Enid "How else are you gonna find out who sent you that locket."
Mildred remained silent. She knew Enid was right and she would be really happy if it was from Harry.
"All right" said Millie, agreeing for Enid to go along with her plan
The three then went down to the Great Hall to have breakfast where Harry, Ron and Hermione were already there and sat down with them.
"Morning guys," they all greeted each other.
Hermione suddenly noticed the locket Mildred was wearing around her neck.
"Nice necklace, Millie" she said "where did you get it?"
"It was sent to me" replied Millie
"From who?" asked Ron.
"I don't know," replied Mildred "There wasn't a note or anything"
"She's got a secret admirer" smirked Maud.
"Wow" exclaimed Hermione, smirking "You've only been here for two days and you've already caught someone's eye"
"Wonder who it is," said Ron
"I have to admit whoever sent it really does have nice taste." Said Harry "It looks really good on you, Millie"
"Thanks, Harry" said Millie.
Enid smirks at what Harry had just said.
"What are smirking about, Enid?" asked Harry
"Oh just…..stuff" replied Enid, unable to contain her smirk.
