5. New Year New Me

Start from the beginning
                                    

I rolled my eyes and chuckled, he didn't look so different. His hair was a little longer and he looked taller.

The compartment door opened and Raven entered, closing the door behind her, she sat next to me.

She didn't even smile, she looked annoyed at something.

"Nice to see you too." Nico muttered.

"I want to die."

Well, that's a great start. She looked exactly the same from last year, even her hair looked the same.

"Either I'll kill them, or myself. I can't stand them anymore. They're just... just... ugh!" She closed her eyes with her palms and looked like she was questioning her life desicions.

"What's wrong?" I asked, playing with her hair.

"The bloody idiots. Fred, James and Teddy." She opened her eyes, and sat straight. "I can't stand them anymore. They're just trying to be friendly because I'm the new prefect. I don't want to be their fake friends I want to be their death."

Raven never liked the trio. They always made fun of her name, because she is a Ravenclaw and her name is also Raven.

"Just ignore them," I patted her in the back.

Miss Nancy knocked the door, I nodded and she asked if we wanted any sweets.

For some reason, no one knows Nancy's name. Or cares. I asked her name the first day on Hogwarts train and she started giving me free candy.

After eating some candy, Raven and I left to change to our uniforms.

We left Nico alone and found somewhere to change. Raven changed faster than me, and didn't even wait for me. How rude.

I left the changing rooms and started walking back to my compartment.

Suddenly something, or someone pulled me into a compartment and hugged me.

"Who the f-" I pulled away from the hug and saw Roxanne looking at me, all excited. "Roxanne!" I hugged her back and this time it was a tighter hug.

"Where were you?" She asked.

"I was with Nico and Raven. I couldn't find you." We pulled away from the hug and I realized we weren't alone.

The compartment was full of people. Teddy, Fred, James, Roxanne, Hugo, Albus, and me.

"Hey." I waved awkwardly.

Teddy was the first one to get up and hug me. After him was, Fred, and then Hugo.

Albus and I just nodded at each other. We knew each other but we weren't exactly friends.

I only made eye contact with James, but didn't say anything. He had a weird look on his face. A look I've never seen before.

Two years ago, I told him that I didn't want to have any contact with him, at all. And last year he kept pulling pranks on me because he was annoyed that I was ignoring him. And this year... well, I don't know, yet.

Albus and Hugo left the compartment to buy some sweets and we sat down.

They all told me about their summers and I listened. Well, excetp James. He was just qiuet.

"What about you summer, Fred?" I asked. Teddy and Roxanne already told me their summer.

"Uncle Fred came to visit us for a week, we had so much fun. Grandmother came to visit us and Uncle Fred, too. She cried from happiness, maybe like, seven times only in six days." We all laughed and Fred continued. "We also went on a trip with all the Weasleys and Potters. It was so much fun. James is quite good at Quidditch."

"I was always good at Quidditch." James cut off.

"I meant better." Fred corrected.

"Hey, what about you? How was your summer?" Teddy asked.

"It was okay. I read books, went to family trips. Nothing interesting." I smiled. My summer sounded boring after listening to theirs.

"What? Did you forget your trip with Nico and his family? You sent me a letter about it, remember?" Roxanne reminded.

"Oh yeah. I forgot about that." They were all looking curiously at me, asking me to tell them what happened. Except James. He was still staring at me.

"Who's Nico?" So he can talk, nice.

"That Slytherin boy we pranked last year. The one that has a style." Fred said.

"I have a better style than him." James hissed.

"You didn't change at all, did you, Potter?" I hissed back.

"And you changed a lot, Wood." We gave death glares to each other.

"So, I guess I'll see you later. Nico is probably waiting." I got up and Roxanne hugged me again.

After I left the compartment, I hear the door opening again.

I turned around to see James Potter. Ugh, I hate him.

I kept walking but he stopped me by pulling my arm.

"So what, you're dating this Nick guy now?"

I looked at him up and down before answering. "His name is Nico, not Nick. And it's none of your business."

I hate him even more because of last year. He kept pulling horrible pranks on me and I didn't even fight back. But this year, it's different.

"Don't worry. I still have pranks for you." Like I said before, something was up with him. He was looking at me differently. Which confused mee, too.

I got closer and closer to him, until there was only a small space between us. "Bring it on." I whispered and left.
