ooc: Why did this thread die??
ic: Maerad woke up with a headache. She yawned and put on her robes. She put her books in a bag and went downstairs. In the common room their was a huge sign saying "HAPPY HALLOWEEN!" Oh,yeah. Halloween. She ate breakfast in the great hall, which was also decorated for the event. She went to her lessons. As usual charms went well,potions went horrible and Transfiguration went a bit better. Maerad put her books in the dormitory and went downstairs for the Halloween feast. She sat at the far end of the table where no one could talk to her but it was no use. Harry came up to her. "Come on. Don't eat there alone." he said. "Oh,no don't worry. I'm good here." "I know you're not. Come on." and Maerad went and sat by Hermione. "Hi." she said akwardly. Maerad gazed at the ceiling and ate nothing for a while. "Aren't you going to eat anything?" Ron said. "It's just that, I can't understand the meaning of Halloween. Who and why did they invent it?" "It doesn't matter much when you have all this food infront of you." he replied. Maerad ate some pumpkin pasties but nothing else. She still was wondering about yesterday. Why did it hurt so much? Why yesterday? "Something wrong?" asked Harry. "Oh,no,nothing. Just thinking about yesterday."she said. Harry stopped eating for a minute. "You said yourself it was just a scar from Herbology." Maerad suddenly realised her mistake. "Oh,yes of course. Just a scar from Herbology. How silly of me to wonder..." She knew that Harry didn't believe her but she was lucky enough that he didn't ask her anything. Suddenly she felt a little pain in her arm. "I'm going upstairs. I'm not feeling well. Bye." and she went to bed still wondering why it had hurt so much. Was it going to do that all year long?
