by Yuuki no Yuki

Not every Slytherin ends up in the Snake Pit.

"Excuse me? I think I dropped my notebook in your cauldron?"

"You!" A voice called, the Hufflepuff jumped.

"Oh, hello Ronald. How's the hand?"

"Fine? Wait. No! What're you doing here?"

The girl tilted her head, confused, "well, this is a bookstore. And Hogwarts is starting soon. I might be protesting Lockhart's classes, but I do need this year's Potion's text." Ignoring the spluttering of the Weasley clan the girl turned to the youngest redhead. "My notebook?"

"Oh!" Ginny gasped, glancing at her cauldron, "right, here you go."

"Awesome." A nod and she was gone.
