Sneaking Away to Read

[Estrella Drage]

Estrella was hoping to get out of the way of the general public, as she was ready to chuck her things at the next person who bumped into her. OWLs were having adverse effects to her well being and she would be quite glad when they were well out of the way. Figuring that since there weren't any classes in session on the seventh floor she could utilize one of the empty classrooms to read a book. She grinned as she opened the door, noting that no one was in there. Pulling out a book she seated herself at one of the desks, popping it open and slouching against her seat. The Ravenclaw girl was not always reluctant to fall into her stereotype. Yes, she read a lot, and was not ashamed of it. She had no idea what time it was, which was just as well- she was finished with classes for today.

The thoughts of exams were filling Macey's head. Well not completely. The fact that soon she would have to make her way back to Hogwarts Scotland plagued her as well. Sure it should be a wonderful thing. She would be able to see her twin sister Trina again and her annoying older sister Emily as well. Though she was really enjoying her time at this school and she really wanted to stay. Though even Macey knew it wasn't possible. This thought saddened her but she knew very well that she had to keep her chin up.

Macey really needed a break from everything as she left the Hogwarts Scotland tents and walked into the castle itself. Macey had not really found any really close friends but she was sure going to enjoy the time alone. This time, she promised herself, would not be full of exam thoughts or home thoughts. This time would be to relax and clear the mind.

To the Seventh floor corridor she walked and then she sneaked into what she believed was an empty classroom. As Macey closed the door behind her she let out a breathe. Alone at last Though soon she realized that she was not alone when she turned around and saw another student. "Oh hey" Macey said a little embarrassed that she had ruined this girl's quiet and alone time as well. "I'm Macey" She added not knowing who this girl was so Macey concluded that this girl reading the book had no clue who Macey was either.

Estrella was not expecting her silence to be intruded upon, having gotten quite comfortable when she was sitting. The sixteen year old girl could not help herself as she jumped about a mile high, startled by someone opening the door. She snapped her book shut as she attempted to figure out who was standing in the doorway. She didn't think she'd ever met her before. A little embarrassed, she listened to the girl's greeting, "Oh, hello. I'm Estrella- Estrella Drage. You a Hogwarts Scotland student?" Her prefect's badge gleamed on her chest as she looked the girl over. She was surprised that she was still meeting new people when nearly a year had passed.

Macey smiled as she felt a bit sorry for interupting this girl who seemed to be older than she was maybe only by a year or so. Though in a way Macey was sort of upset she couldn't find an empty room to enjoy her own peace and quiet. It will have to do Macey thought as she moving away from the door way not wanting to stand there all day.

"Nice to meet you Estrella" Macey said politely. Meeting someone knew always proved to be rather arkward for Macey. This was probably the reason she was basically a loner. "Yeah I'm a Hogwarts Scotland Student" Macey said trying to say it with the pride that should be used but in short she failed. "Fourth Year Ravenclaw" She said though that time she could manage a bit of pride. If Macey was proud of one thing it was that she had made her way into Ravenclaw.

"Sorry to bother you. I was just trying to find an empty classroom" Macey said.
