Buddy
~Sarai POV~
A prefect starts to take us to our dorms and after that we are having a welcome type of party where they introduce us to the after school activities, older students, teachers etc. Although this all sounds depressing right now I’m more focused on who’s going to be my dorm “mate”. They said they already had that stuff situated and we will see once we get there
We were all looking around for our dorm. All I knew was the girls were on the left side. I soon found my dorm and I walked in with the provided key I was handed and saw three beds which is good because it’s only two other people. I wish it was none but it’s good
I picked the bed in the corner and to the side of the windows it’s a good enough spot for me. I started to unpack but then the rest of the girls came in
“Hi I’m Pandora Lovegood, it's a pleasure to meet you!” One said with pretty blonde hair
“My name is Dorcas Meadowes, Nice to meet ya.” Good she’s a colored woman
After the introductions we start unpacking till we get a knock on the with someone telling us we are going to the welcome party. While I’m walking down the stairs to the common room I see Regulus waiting for me at the end looking pissed as ever
“Bad roommates, grumpy?” I asked once I reached him
“Bad roommate I’m stuck with Barty I don’t deserve this.”
Barty was walking by us right when he said that and had an clear attitude
“Reginald I’m not liking this mean side of you.” He said
“No this is his normal side.” I said
The prefect started talking so Reggie couldn’t even make his pathetic excuse for my true statement. We walked out the common room with the prefects and the other new students. We went outside to where this party is happening and the prefect started talking again
“You can all wander around if you have any questions look for a prefect or a teacher there’s a few out there. I hope you guys enjoy the celebration. We won't take you guys back to the common room since everyone is leaving at different times.”
After that we started to look at all the different opportunities and schedule information. The older kids were also here so that means Sirius is here and he quickly found us in the crowd
“New best friend and little brother hello kiddos!” He greeted us?
“She doesn’t even like you Sirius, why would she of all people be your best friend?” Which I never exactly said like that but it’s the truth
“What are you talking about? She loves me and we are besties, stop being a hater because she likes me more, it's okay you have Barty!”
“I hate you.” And this dude actually took my wrist and forced me to leave with him. Barty followed behind quickly but this child was walking quickly
After we got like further from the “celebration” he stopped and crossed his arms like a toddler
“I will not be subjected to this slavery! Don’t drag me again, rat.” I said mildly irritated
He ignored me
And sat on the ground but first took Bartys jacket to do so. Then he went on his phone ignoring all of us while he watched some random Netflix show. Just wow, wow
“Who are you ignoring, asshole give me attention!” I demanded him
He looked up and rolled his eyes
“What do you want?” He asked with an attitude towards ME?!
“For you to explain why you dragged us away from Sirius and the whole entire event?“ I said now actually annoyed
“It was boring and he was annoying, it's that simple.”
“Why did we have to come?” Barty asked
“I didn’t invite you, I took the girl you followed.”
“Yeah I don’t have any other friends obviously it’s not even the first day of school yet technically.” He said rolling his eyes
“I don’t care. Now leave me alone. Let me watch this show in peace.”
So we did and Barty and I made conversation
~An hour later~
We started to walk back to our common room and Barty stayed because he saw Evan. Regulus seemed to have less than attitude but it was obvious he didn’t wanna talk like at all till he asked me a random question
“Do you want to walk around the school with me? You should say yes.” He asked even though it sounded more like an demand
“Umm probably yeah if you want.”
We started to walk alongside each other. I'm pretty sure we passed the place where I did my audition or whatever. I don't know what was happening except we were walking, not talking which got on my nerves so I listened to some music on my phone. Although the music was great and all but I was getting very, very irritated at him. Honestly how are you going to ask me to walk with you but not talk to me what’s the purpose of me being out here I mean I understand being just in peace with a friend walking besides each other without worrying about having to start conversation because that’s enough I guess but we not friends as he exactly said and we aren’t close like that. Although if he isn’t feeling comfortable for conversation that’s also a factor I need to look at. I’m being very selfish and dramatic I think again but it’s not my fault sometimes I think too much I can’t even stop it
“Are you okay?”
The voice snapped me out of my thoughts which irritated me again because I needed to think even though I was complaining how I think too much but besides the point
“What do you mean Reggie Veggie?” I asked sounding very cool in my opinion
“Your acting strange Orla Borla I suggest you fix it, it’s ruining my good mood.”
“I didn’t realize you were capable of doing such things like being in a good mood, it astounds me!” I answer back very smartly because I’m cool
“Okay kid maybe it’s possible you’ve never see it because I'm never happy near you.”
“As of lately you're always near me.”
“That only proves my point. I haven't been happy this whole entire day. It's been a very long day.”
“Well-“
“Stop dodging the question, what is wrong with you?” He interrupts AGAIN
“Nothing Reg chill, I'm just tired like you said it’s been a long day.”
“Mhm if you say so. We will be heading back soon. You will not be directing us back, you haven’t been paying attention to the way here because you're too busy listening to your trash songs.”
I know he did not just say that.
…
“TRASH?!! You haven’t even heard my songs yet. I hate skinny white boys. I swear ima take your lunch money so stop testing me buddy.” I say proudly
“So aggressive.”
“Oh because of my race you're stereotyping that I’m aggressive wow, not even surprised you're such a bully!” I exclaimed
“Not because of your race and I am not a bully.”
“I’m getting nervous being by you, your so mean I’m so scared SIGH loudly!” Yes saying sigh loudly out loud
“Literally shut up “buddy” you're so weird.”
“I am-“
“We are almost there. I'm sure you can stay quiet for the remainder of the time or no?”
I stayed quiet after that and brainstormed insults I can use against him in the next argument but I still won more than him. He is such an mean child and do we even have to use lunch money here?
We reached the common room answering the riddle they gave us as the key to get inside and sat on the couches that looked overly comfortable and were really comfortable. A lot of people started coming back inside the common room but most going their rooms so we can avoid the awkwardness of a bunch of people bundled in one space
“Barty should be coming back soon but for now we should go finish unpacking since we have our rooms to ourselves?” He said to me
“Yeah probably I want to take a nap but I doubt I’ll be able to fall asleep so quickly without knowing the people in my room first.”
“Yeah I get that it’s only barty with me but I don’t think I’ll be able to fall asleep because he talks too much.”
“Y’know you can attempt to be nicer to him? And it wouldn’t hurt you to be nice to me to and maybe you’ll be a bit les grumpy?!”
“You're grumpy a lot too so you can’t even be talking.” He said while rolling his eyes
“Yeah but that’s me and I can’t help it there’s too many annoying things surrounding me. It's honestly everyone else's problem, not mine.”
“Okay buddy I’ll see you soon just don’t do anything dumb I’ll knock on your door once I’m done with my stuff.” He said rudely
“Byezzz”
