The Silver Three
House Cup
We lose the House Cup. All of the times I have answered in class have gone to waste. First place is stolen from us because of the good deeds of Harry Potter and his friends. They are given many points for their achievements. These points are well over the amount of the points I have tried to earn all year by answering questions correctly and acing my tests.
I have worked hard for these points. Harry and his friends catch them on a whim of bravery, and being in the right time in the right place.
The house of red and gold cheer loudly, banging their cups. Our table is silent, glaring. We aren’t the ‘smart’ house. We aren’t the ‘kind’ house. We aren’t the ‘brave’ house. We are ambition, we are pride, we take what we want.
And they’ve taken our win.
I earned those points. I studied and I tried. And I have lost them.
I hate Harry Potter and his friends.

Eleanor is extremely competitive.And quite honestly, I felt bad for Slytherin in that scene where they're stripped of the win. They have all the point for a reason.
