"Alright. But if a couple of Grindylows grab a hold of your leg and pull you to your certain death, don't shout at me to help you." said Melody, shrugging. "I'm going to the lake now to practice. Flitwick said that we have unlimited access to it today. If you two want to join me and learn the spells, you'll probably find me in the water. See you later!" she added, grabbing her bag from the chair, standing up and walking out of the common room. She ran to the lake and took off her clothes to reveal a black, one-piece, sports swim-suit. She dove into the water, holding only her wand and casting the Bubble-Head Charm on herself. She swam to the bottom, used Aguamenti to proppel herself upwards and reached the surface with her hair plastered to her face. She swam around the lake a few times and sighed when she felt something touch her foot. She dove again, aiming a fire spell at a few Grindylows. They swam away in fear and she managed to get her head above the surface again. She swam around a few times, diving and doing somersaults underwater. She used the Aguamenti spell to swim faster and laughed out loud when she swam through the whole lake at top speed. She finally stopped when she ran out of breath and lay down on her back on the ground. It was a fantastic exercise, but it was hard, too.
