" I'm only honest when it rains

An open book, with a torn out page

And my inks run out

I wanna love you but I don't know how "

--CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO--

June 10, 1978

5:00 pm

It was strange seeing three boys kidnapping a teacher, but here they were, walking the halls of Hogwarts. Sirius was still carrying Arabella while the other boys followed closely behind. The students who walked by them would give them questioning glances but would say nothing, knowing that if the marauders were involved, it would be weird. At one point, they even passed by Benji, who just laughed in her face and told them to carry on.

After saying a quick hello to Elizabeth, they were in the common room, and Sirius finally put her down.

Arabella huffed, "Don't ever grab me like that again," she threatened.

Sirius nodded, "Noted."

"Now, if you'll excuse me, I got to be somewhere I don't want to be," she said to the boys, who just waved at her like children.

Arabella made her way up the girl's stairs, searching for the correct dorm room. Finally reaching the right door, she pushed it open and came face to face with mayhem. The room was in complete disarray. There were make-up products and clothes everywhere. Posters of muggle and wizard artists alike adorned the walls. Arabella had only been in the Gryffindor rooms a couple of times when Hermione invited her, so the room wasn't anything out of the ordinary; if she were honest, it reminded her of the Hufflepuff rooms. Finally, five girls were running around like headless chickens, each one screaming at the other.

"Hello!" Arabella said quite loudly, getting their attention.

All the girls stopped what they were doing and turned their faces to the noise.

"Bella! Thank Merlin, you're here! We need help," said Marlene coming up to her and hugging her only to pull away quickly. "Ew, Bella, you smell like dirt."

"I was gardening all day. What can I help with?" she asked.

"We heard that you are amazing with glamour charms," Lily said from the bathroom.

Arabella furrowed her eyebrows, "And who told you that?"

"Professor Fenwick," said Dorcas from one of the beds.

"Son of a bitch," she muttered under her breathe, mentally cursing Benji for telling them about the time she cut his hair. "I mean, I wouldn't say I'm amazing; I just cut his hair, nothing more."
