Katie felt like something was going on when Fleur assigned partners in class. It wasn't really the act that made her suspicious but the little smile Fleur gave her when she read out that her partner would be Lucy.
She didn't know the other girl very well. She was a bit…odd; aloof and a little mysterious in a very artistic way. It was intriguing but Katie felt intimidated trying to be friendly with her since they really didn't have anything in common that Katie could tell.
The other girl was cute so she wanted to look good when she showed up. One of the things she'd always felt confident in was "Quidditch stuff". She put on a pair of hip hugger jeans with her beat up trainers with a Harpies t-shirt and her Gryffindor warm up. Her hair was up in a neat ponytail and she had put on some light make up except around her eyes that were pretty dark.
Carrying her charms book and a couple she had checked out of the library for the assignment. It had taken her so long to get into Ravenclaw Tower that she was running a little late despite having gotten there pretty early.
It was a third year that came along at the right time that was the only reason that Katie got in at all. That had been a huge self esteem boost…
Knocking at the door to Lucy's dorm, she waited to hear something before opening it.
