I woke up Monday morning with a huge yawn and stretched my body lazily getting out all the kinks. That weekend was a crazy one. After spending Saturday at Universal Studios with Evan's family, my parents came home on Sunday and decided to have a dinner outing. They invited the Spaders as well, as a thank you for taking care of me during the weekend. Together we went out to this amazing Indian restaurant. The music and the ambiance were great and they played a very upbeat tune in Hindi and encouraged the…- 961.0 K • Ongoing

- “Hermione! Wait!” I shouted while running behind Emma. “Hermione, will you please tell me what it is we are doing?” She stopped behind the corner of a wall and I saw six people standing together. The actors portraying Ron, Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle were the real ones, while two body doubles were wearing clothes similar to Emma and me.“That’s us,” I whispered in realization. “This is not normal.”Suddenly, Emma grabbed me and pushed me against the wall in an attempt to make sure no one saw…

- “Zoe!” A brunette girl dressed in Ravenclaw’s robe shouted from across the street. “Stop walking at a turtle’s pace, or we’ll miss the movie.”“Calm your horses, Krissy,” Zoe, who was wearing Hufflepuff, rolled her eyes. “We already have the tickets.”“And so do hundreds of others,” said the third and final girl in the group, Riley, who was donning Gryffindor. “All the good seats will be gone if we aren’t early.”Not wanting to hear her friends' complaints anymore, Zoe jogged…

- Matt Stone looked irritably at Tobias O'Brien. It was bad enough that their flight from LA to London had been unexpectedly delayed by three hours. Now, they had been waiting for nearly half an hour and still hadn’t gotten a meeting with Troy Armitage.“Well?” he asked. “When can we see that boy?”Tobias raised an eyebrow. “You mean the same boy who made your life so difficult with one video that Comedy Central had to release an apology and promise never to air that middle segment of the episode…

- “Woah.” I steadied the teen girl by gently grasping her shoulders. She looked like she was hyperventilating and might go limp at any moment. “Calm down, Miss. I’m not going anywhere.”“All night?” Taylor Swift asked hopefully.I laughed out loud at her audaciousness. “I wouldn’t mind, but unfortunately, my girlfriend would—and she’s standing right behind me.” I lowered my voice to a stage whisper, making sure everyone could hear.“What’s your name?” I asked.“Taylor Swift,”…

- “I knew you were lying, Helen.” Betty smiled viciously, keeping her voice low enough that no nearby adults would overhear. “You don’t know any celebs, let alone Harry Potter.”Helen’s hands curled into fists at her sides. She hated Betty. Betty was the one who had told everyone at school that Helen was lying about Troy being her brother. And the worst part was that she had no way to prove otherwise. No pictures. No home videos. Nothing to show the world that her older brother was actually…

- “I hate this job,” Olivia groaned, slumping against the counter as she spoke to her colleague. “Who even buys flowers this late at night?” “Surprisingly, many people do,” Christine replied with a straight face, casually rearranging a bouquet of white lilies. “This is only your first week, and it’s been relatively slow, but you’d be surprised how many men suddenly remember their anniversary or their partner’s birthday at night. Some just want to surprise their girlfriends or wives.…

- Rod Meyer glanced down at his watch, only to reel back in surprise. Nearly 2 hours and 45 minutes had already passed since the movie began. Most films would have wrapped up by now, yet this one still had several major plot points left to cover. The strange thing was that not for a second had Rod felt bored or thought the film was too long.
