Chapter 6

''And here we are-''

''-the Defense Against the Dark Arts class,'' the twins came to a hault as they stopped outside the classroom, Jes still sandwiched between them.

''Um, guys?'' they looked at her and she cleared her throat awkwardly,

''Don't you have to get to class?'' they stared at her before laughing,

''Don't you have to get to class,' she says!-'' George let go of her to smack his knee while laughing, as if she just cracked a really funny joke,

''-love it's Saturday, there is no class,'' Fred finished for his brother and smiled at her,

''What, are you doing outside my classroom, you troublemakers.'' the three of them spun around to see none other than Proffesor Snape standing there and Jes took him in. His greasy hair hung around his chubby face; his eyes were like expressionless black-holes. He had black robes that swayed when he walked and ever-present-Slytherin-trade-mark-sneer.

''Ah! Professor, we were just showing the new girl around, weren't we George?''

''Yes Fred! Unfortunate that YOUR students did a terrible job the last time professor. Don't you think Fred?''

''Yes George, we should have Professor Dumbledore have a word with them. Don't you think Jes?''

The three males snapped their attention to Jeselle, who looked from the twins to Snape,

''I erm, I...y-yes?'' she avoided the look that Snape was giving her and the twins smiled in glee,

''It's settled then!'' they chorused before ushering her down the corridor again, once they were an earshot away from Snape they all sighed in relief,

''He's quite intimidating,'' Jes said and Fred smiled apologetically,

''Yes, well he's the head of Slytherin house. They hate anyone that's not in their 'inner-circle-''

''-that and he's been trying to get the Defense against the Darks Arts job for six years now! But as you can see-''

''It's not been going well,'' they finished together, they stopped in front of a large set of staircases where a black boy of around the twins age was waiting for them,

''There you are two are! Do you have an-oh hello there,'' he said and winked at Jes who rolled her eyes,

''Jeselle, this is our friend Lee. Lee, Jes.''

''Pleasure to meet you,'' she said and stuck her hand out and took it and kissed it, before winking again while saying,

''Pleasure is ALL mine,'' she laughed and Fred waved his hand impatiently,

''Yeah, yeah. Jordan, do you have the stuff?'' Fred asked as he pulled his mate away from Jes before he decided that he wanted to propose to her, George sent an apologetic smile before running after his twin, Jes sighed and decided to head off to the library.

As she was walking she heard people laughing and saw Draco and Blaise walking in her direction, she swallowed nervously before darting her head in every direction but before she could make her sweet escape Blaise had spotted her and nudged Draco,

''Well. Well. Well, what DO we have here?'' he said in a mocking tone and Jes froze before sneering at him, she looked him dead in the eye as he continued,

''Seems like the lil Raven didn't learn her lesson, ey?'' Blaise shook his head,

''What you gonna do Draco?'' but before Draco could respond Jes mustered up the courage to answer,

''Yeah Malfoy? What ‘chu gonna do to the new girl that didn't even know you, huh? Gonna get your lackies to pull another stupid childish prank? OH! Or maybe your lil girly hands can throw a water balloon, that otta do the trick ey?'' she said in the same tone that he had used, that had shut him up, he shook his head and pulled his wand out before taking a menacing step forward,

''Listen here, MUDBLOOD, you watch your mouth when your talkin' to your superiors. Or I'll-''

''What? You'll what Malfoy? Get Pansy to teach you how to cast a proper spell, or call your dear ol' dad,'' they spun around to see Harry casually leaning on the wall, Draco sneered at him before raising his wand towards him, and Harry did the same,

''Ah, saint Potter come to save the day eh? Well to ba-'' SMACK!

Draco stumbled back shocked, Jes panted and Harry had a mixture of surprise and amusement on his face- no-one had EVER dared to hit Malfoy, the only person who ever did was Hermione Granger, another 'mudblood' in third year.

''Cut the act Malfoy and clear off. You ever threaten any of my friends, and believe me when I say I'll do WORSE than de-figure that pretty face,''

''This isn't over,'' he said before scampering away, Blaise was frozen in place and coughed awkwardly,

''I'm sorry,'' he muttered and followed his friend but heard Jes mutter that it was okay back, Jes realised that a couple of students witnessed the scene and were grinning and whispering excitedly, she waved awkwardly with a small smile on her face at them before walking to Harry,

''That. Was. Awesome.'' he said and grinned, she shrugged and rubbed her now sore hand,

''Remind me never to do it again,''
