The weather is awful today.

I can still hear the rain from my dormitory.And my dorm is underwater.

My hair also happens to be slightly greasy,and I should wash it now,because if I do it later it probably will be more greasy.

So I grab Astoria's (or Aria's) shampoo and lock the door behind me.

My hair is in a towel-turban and my uniform is on.

"Focillo" I say,looking at the colour of my eyes this morning.They're a hue of greeny-blue today.

The warming charm is one that I'll be forever grateful for.

My wand is in my pocket and I'm walking down the stairs to the common room and doing my tie when my foot slips.

I'm trying to regain my balance and tip forwards when a hand wraps itself around my wrist and pulls me backwards so I'm back on a step.

I turn around to see who my saviour is,since I need to thank them,especially since they saved me from embarrassment if I fell down the stairs.

I'm met with dark eyes and a grin.

Just my bloody luck.

Mattheo.Bloody.Riddle.

"Thanks,"I say before turning around to step down the stairs.

I try to step but the hand around my wrist prevents me from moving.

I flush red from embarrassment. "I can walk down the stairs myself thanks,"I snap,trying to get my wrist out of his hand.

Riddle just laughs. "It didn't look like that a minute ago.I'll take you down so you don't fall again."

"I said I can walk down the stairs myself. So if you don't mind I'd prefer it if you let go of my wrist."

Just then Astoria walks up the stairs,her eyes widening as they look between me,Riddle and my wrist.

Riddle clears his throat nervously and drops my wrist.

"Toria!"I move too fast and trip again,Riddle's hand around my wrist again.

"It's okay,I'll take her down,"Astoria says her eyelashes fluttering.

His hand is off my wrist and then Astoria grabs my elbow and walks me down the stairs.

"She almost fell down the stairs," Astoria hisses in front of the others.

Harper and Anderson just stare at me. "Again?!"

"Can we just go?"I say.

"Yeah but aren't you forgetting something?"Aria asks,gesturing to my towel-turban.

"It's fine I'm letting it dry.Ill take it off once we're out of the dungeons."

"Focillo,"I cast again,holding the wand to the towel so my hair dries.

Then I unwrap my hair from the towel and let it down.

"Evanesco," The towel disappears.

Ashley,Harper and Anderson gasp,while Astoria and Aria let out identical screams.

"What?"

"Loving the hair,Emily,"Harry Potter grins as he walks past us into the Great Hall,without his minions.

My eyes widen. "What's wrong with my hair,Anderson?"

Anderson shakes his head,walks forward and pulls a curly spring of my hair forwards.

My hair is BLACK.

"WHAT DO I DO?"

"Walk into the Hall,eat and find out what happened to your hair?"Aria asks,rhetorically.

So we walk into the Great Hall not a lot of people notice ,until Pansy Parkinson decides to open her big mouth and shriek that my hair is Black.

"Emily Weasley?"A guy with a Hufflepuff tie said. "Is that you?"

"No shit,Pansy Parkinson just announced it to the whole of the Great Hall."

Astoria gasps.

"Professor Lupin wants to see you in his office,preferably with a friend."

"Aria?"I look at the brunette and she nods.

So we walk to Professor Lupins office and hour before dinner.

Only it wasn't just me and Aria.Astoria wanted to join and then the whole group decided to join because they had nothing to do.

Aria knocks on the door and we hear a faint "come in" so we entered the office.

It's instantly different to Lockharts office,his only had massive portraits of himself whereas Professor Lupins is full of dark creatures,like a Grindylow in a tank.

His eyes skim over us and he sighs.
"Miss Weasley,by 'preferably with a friend' I meant 1 friend.Not 5!"

"Sorry Professor,"I muttered as he transfigured random objects into chairs.

He looks at me again and his jaw drops.

"Are you okay,Professor?"Harper asks.

"Yes— I'm fine— let's get on with the meeting shall we?"He says really quickly.

"So I've been meaning to ask about your boggart,"Lupin starts.

Aria and Harper exchange glances,thinking that most of us wouldn't see.
You're not very smooth with it.

"Do you happen to know why it was like that?"He asks.

Aria and Harper exchange glances again and they lean closer.

"No sir,"I say. "I have no idea."

Professor Lupin sighs.

Half an hour later we leave the office and walk towards the Great Hall.

Professor Lupin was acting strangely for some reason.

When we step onto the polished floor outside of the Great Hall,the first thing I notice is Ron angrily storming out,followed by Harry and Hermione.

"EMILY?!"

"Er Hi?"

"WHY IS YOUR HAIR BLACK?"Ron demands. "ARE YOU TRYING TO BE A FAMILY TRAITOR?"

"Umm-"

"Ron calm down,"Hermione snaps. "I'm sure that there's a reasonable reason why Emily's hair is black,right Emily?"

I send a grateful smile at Hermione,before Tori and Ash drag me inside the Great Hall.

A bit short and lat,but I've been so busy but yeah here's an update xx
