"Merlin's beard, am I the only one who saw a girl next to Malfoy or am I hallucinating?" Ron asked as he scratched the back of his head. Hermione rolled her eyes at his stupidity. As for Harry, he seemed to be still in a trance, who was she, he thought. He couldn't help but go back to those eyes of hers, the way her hair was perfectly placed. She had never seen her before, he wondered how he ever missed her before.

"C'mon on Ron, stop with your stupidity, she's always been there it's just she doesn't like being seen" "If you were to see me standing next to a boy holding hands you surely wouldn't be acting like that, would you?" Hermione teased, she looked at her best friend waiting for his reaction which didn't seem to come.
"God I sometimes wonder what goes on in that stupid little head of yours" she sighed.
"It's not like he's never been surrounded by girls, god imagine having Pansy around him 24/7, seems already too much," Hermione said as she stood next to her other best friend who was still in a trance.
"Isn't Harry?" she asked. No response.
"Harry?" Silence.
"Harry!" She stood in front of the Potter boy. She realized the Potter seemed to be lost, she signaled the Weasley boy to look at him. Both staring at their friend intensely, the Weasley boy raised his hand and swung his hand side to side, seeing if his friend would react. Hermione smacked his hand and rolled her eyes once again.

"Ouch, that hurt Mione!" Ron groaned as he slightly rubbed his hand, seeming to have woken up Harry from the trance.
"Oh shut it, even a baby could hold that much" She turned to look at Harry.
"Umm sorry, what were you saying?" the glasses boy asked dumbfounded to the situation. He fixed his glasses and stared at his two best friends, who looked at him with worried expressions.
"Are you okay Harry?" Hermione asked, she walked closer to him inspecting his face a bit more.
"Yeah, man you seemed to be spaced out for quite a bit" Ron furrowed his eyebrows.
"Umm, sorry it's nothing " Harry stated, ignoring both of his friend's concerns.
"Um let's go, don't want to make the others wait," said Harry as he walked past his friends and made his way where Neville and a blonde girl sat in the carriages.

"Everybody, this is Loony Lo-, Luna Lovegood" The Granger girl stuttered on her words. The Lovegood girl didn't seem to notice it, she looked around her surroundings, a small smile across her face.
"What an interesting necklace," the Granger girl said trying to change the subject.
"It's a charm actually, it helps me keep away the nargles" She played with her necklace, the trio and Neville looked at each other in discomfort the Ravenclaw girl minded her own business and smiled along.
"W-who is she?" the Potter boy wondered out loud out of a sudden, he couldn't help but ask.
"Who?" they all asked at the same time.
"Her, the one standing next to Malfoy" he explained.
"Are you talking about Evelyn Alexandria Blackwood?" Hermione questioned, quickly her lips turning into an upward smile.
"Evelyn 𝐀𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐚 Blackwood, is that her name?" He wondered, smiling at himself for knowing her name.
"Don't tell me the actual Harry Potter has a crush on a girl" Hermione chimed.
"Bloody hell Harry, I'd never thought I'd hear another girl's name come out of your mouth rather than Cho" Ron chuckled at the boy's hidden cheesy smile.
"Out of all people, I never thought you would find a girl like her interesting" Hermione commented.
"What do you mean," Harry asked.
" She doesn't speak Harry, she likes to stay hidden from everyone " informed Hermione. "Everybody who knows her loves her,  although they don't approach her due to the fact she doesn't like meeting new people, she's quite the charm I've got to admit myself, she spends most of the time in the library, I go with her and study after classes sometimes. She uses sign language to communicate."

"Rumor says, that just by looking at her eyes she'll know what your thinking" Hermione went on.
"Really?" He asked.

"But, how come I've never seen her before" asked Harry
"Like I said she tries to hide from everybody," Hermione said.
