"WHAT ARE YOU GIRLS DOING HERE?" A shrill voice called out, causing the girls to gasp, turning towards the voice.
The girls slowly turned around, with their skin pale, with fright, even Kate's freckles couldn't be seen. Thia's stomach knotted, knowing, she couldn't get in trouble AGAIN. Yet, when the turned, expecting to see a professor, or any person with high power, they saw a simple 7th year girl, floating in the air, meditating.
"Because, obviously." the girl said, opining her eyes. "You're not reading anything."
The girls stood FLABBERGASTED, and Kate, was the first to crack.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING SCARING US LIKE THAT, WHO ARE YOU ANYWAYS." Kate shouted, walking in front of the girl. The seventh year Slytherin dropped from the air, and outstretched her arm.
"I'm Shanhol Williams, a 7th year prefect, and you are?" Shanhol asked, with a raise of her right eyebrow.
"Slythia Lestrange." Thia said, not taking Shanhol's hand, but staring at it suspiciously.
"Kate Evans." Kate added, shaking her hand.
"MY NAME IS PATRICK" Charlotte shouted, causing a giggle from Kate.
"What?" Shanhol, and Slythia both asked at once.
"I'm Charlotte Ashworth." she said, correcting her "Patrick" slip.
"well it's nice to meet you all!" She said, trying to fake a smile.
Slythia raised her eyebrow in suspicion.
" No its not." Thia stated. Suddenly a dark cloud loomed over Shanhol.
"You're right it's NOT! IM TRYING TO MEDITATE PEACEFULLY B-" she got cut off. outside, we heard a loud meow, almost like the cat was in pain, and a human squeal following after. All of the girl's wand was out, pointed at the door when suddenly, seeing a person walk in,
"Marshmellow, you REALLY need to watch where you're going." Nikki continued looking at her cat.
"Nikki?" Thia asked, confused. "but we saw you asleep.."
"Yeah, yeah, only because I wanted you guys to go away, really, you guys were ruining how many times i could blink in under an hour.."
The girls nodded, and they sprawled out along the library, looking at random books, conducting small talk. Charlotte, was sitting behind a bookshelf, still holding the book she tried to show Thia. While the others girls were crowding each other, talking about their favorite type of cakes, Thia snuck away towards Charlotte.
"Ashyyyyyyyyyy" Thia said nudging Charlotte a bit. But no response.
"Ashwoooooooorth" Slythia said nudging her a bit harder.
"What?!" Charlotte snapped.
"Whats wrong?"
Charlotte sighed before answering. "Its the book Lestrange."
"Yes, I know that, but-" Thia looked around."but we can't open it, look at it, or do anything with it when their around." Slythia said with a worried tone.
"OK, then lets go." Charlotte said, with hope in her voice.
"HEY SLYTHIA I WANT LEMON CAKE" said a voice behind them, causing Charlotte to jump.
"NIKKI!" Slythia scolded.
"THIA" Nikki screamed back smiling.
Slythia took out her bag, (come one people she brings her bag EVERYWHERE) and pulled out a box of lemon cake, stealing one, and handing it to Nikki.
"YAAASSSS" she said skipping back towards the group.
"come on Lestrange, please." Charlotte said, looking at the ground.
"You know saying please isn't going to help, but whatever"
They stood up, watching the group, now obsessing over Nikki's cat, and the two girls dashed out of the library.
running out, the girls went to the common room, and sat in on of the couches.
"You know Ashy, I don't know why you're still obsessing over this stuff..." Slythia spoke, looking down.
" Because, its important." Charlotte said defensively.
"Yet it doesn't concern us anymore! We aren't there! Its not our problem!"
"But I want it to be.." Charlotte said, about to open the book. It was a couple minutes, before Charlotte took a deep breath, and began to open the book. In a flash of action, Slythia jumped up ripping the book from Charlotte's hand, and throwing it in the fire.
"NO!" Charlotte screamed, standing up. "WHY,WHAT?"
Slythia, looking away, stormed to her dorm, shaking her head, leaving Charlotte standing in the open.
