Julia giggled and shook her head, climbing down from the carriage after him,"I've got it, thanks." She said as she leaned in to grab her pet carrier before moving so he could get his owl,"And yup, I will meet you in the library after dinnertime." She smiled as they got nearer to the school, seeing a group of her friends chatting with each other. She looked over at him,"See you later." She said, seeing some of his friends coming into view. She headed over to her friends to chat with them for a little bit before the feast started.

A few months had gone by and Julia was back into the swing of classes and homework. She would see Jason round while they went through the days and she would smile and wave at him, at the very least to be nice. She knew his other friends didn't seem to care for it much and they gave her dirty looks each time. She didn't mind it though, as her friends would do it back to them. Her friends didn't mind the friendship she had started having with Jason and she didn't care what his friends thought.

(Oh my god! Are you alright? If you need a break just let me know... My thoughts are with you, my friend)

Julia headed off to the library to do some studying, wanting to rewrite her potions essay. She thought it was alright but also planned to try to add a little more to it. She saw Jason and smiled,"Hey," She said to him in a soft voice as not to startle him,"How are you?" She noticed he was working on the same essay she was planning to tweak herself,"Need a little help with the potions essay? I'm working on tweaking mine a bit."

Julia frowned, listening to him as he explained his frustrstions,"All I can say to that is as long as your passing, they should be happy. I know they want the Malfoy name to be as perfect as they think it is, but your happiness and mental well being are much more important than that, even if they don't see it." When he mentioned the essay she smiled,"I already finished mine." she said,"I'm just the to rewrite it neater and to add a few things. That's why I asked if you would like a bit of help."

As Julia read his essay, she nodded,"I see you were struggling a bit with the moonstone information." She said to him gently,"It looks like you forgot to mention another way to reap the benefits of them in potions is if you boil them in water and then add that water to the potion. Or you could boil them in the potions themselves, depending on what the directions say." She looked over and handed his essay back to him,"Other than that, I think you've gotten pretty much everything that was asked for. It's close to what mine says, just worded differently." She smiled,"I just wanna rewrite mine so it's not too sloppy. You can look over mine if you want in case there something else you might need to add."

Julia smiled and nodded, pulling out clean parchment and a quill,"Understandable." She said, as she started to copy her essay neatly,"And you might be a bit silly,"She added,"But that doesn't mean your not a smart person." She was silent for a few moments, writing things from her essay down,"And it's also understandable you might not have realized that. I had to find that in a really old book here in the library. I don't remember it being mentioned before in class, unless I happened to miss that day due to being sick."

"Easier?" Julia giggled, working on her essay,"I had expected these things to be a bit harder. But not this hard. And I'm sure next year will be harder. All we can do is keep working hard and try to learn as much as we can to make next year easier." She looked over at him when he thanked her,"No problem." She smiled, glad she was able to help him.

((I dont think there is but we can make one anyway if you like ^^ ANd that's okay. I understand ^^)

Julia had just finished up with her essay when she heard Jason speak. She looked over to listening to what he was saying and blushed lightly as he did so. Was he asking her to the dance? Like as a date? Or just as friends? She smiled at him, blushing lightly,"Sure I'll go with you. That acually sounds like it could be fun." She said,"I'll have to see if I remembered to pack my dress robes. If not, I can always buy another set."

Julia smiled and nodded,"Sure thing." She said, starting to put her things away since she had finished,"I think I'm going to head to the common room to make sure I have something presentable to wear." She smiled at him,"See you later?"

Julia smiled and headed back to her common room, thankful all lessons were finished for today. She put her schoolwork away and enjoyed some time with her friends before wishing them goodnight. She went up to her dorm room and crawled into bed, a wave of exhaustion taking over her. Within moments, she fell asleep.
