Y'know, actually... she really wanted that big shiny book to read. It reminded her of when her mum... no, her granny... used to sit with her and read her books whenever she was ill as a little girl. Dot put both hands on the book and sliiiiiiiiid it across the table so she could look at it properly, away from the older girl who was being a book hog. Just... there was a story she really wanted to see. What... was... oh, there!
"I need this book. I have to take it right now." The little girl slammed the book shut with a loud clap and tried to slip it under her arm. It was hers. She really really REALLY needed to see her granny. Right now. With the book.
Mandatory meeting. Exciting. Not.
Entering the study area Beverly glanced around. Her nap time was interrupted, expect cheery and over excited Prefect here. She wasn't one to start with. Spotting the little Slytherin -- the one who got yelled at -- snatch a book, Beverly approached her snatched the book right from under her arm.
"What's this?" It seemed interesting, with the glowing and stuff. She opened it and flipped through some pages before resting her eyes on the girl. "You ask before taking things that aren't yours."
Rude child.
Who did this belong to? Was it that one kid or the other?
