Chapter 1

A girl with olive skin waited at the 9 and 3\4 platform. She took out a pocket mirror from her small bag and examined her shoulder length black hair and bangs. She noticed a small and irritating smudge on her horn-rimmed glasses. She took them off to reveal her bright green eyes, and cleaned her glasses. After she cleaned them and put them on, she heard a meow next to her.

"Crookshanks", she looked down and smiled at the familiar orange, flat faced cat. She kneeled to pet him when she heard a cry "Prim!" She got up to greet her friend, Hermione Granger. The girls hugged.

"Long time, no see!" Primrose laughed. Hermione joined her laughter.

"Yes. How's your mother?"

Primrose spent most of her summer vacation at the Weasleys, but returned 2 weeks before term to be with her. Primrose's mother was alone; her father passed away when she was young and her older brother, Max, lived alone and worked at "The Three Broomsticks".

Primrose shrugged "She's alright, I guess. Where are Harry and Ron?"

Hermione picked up Crookshanks and said "They'll be here in a minute."

Prim nodded "Okay. Speaking of which, how are things with Ron?" She grinned mischievously.

Hermione blushed furiously "Alright, I suppose. And you and Seamus? Where is he?" Primrose was dating a fellow Gryffindor, Seamus Finnigan.

"Couldn't be better. He came over for a couple of days. He's on the train. I wanted to be here outside and wait for you."

Hermione nodded "Oh, so that's why you're out here without your luggage."

Prim laughed "I arrived earlier and already put my baggage." Primrose looked around and found a tall, flame haired student and a black haired, green eyed boy with an unusual scar on his forehead.

"Harry! Ron!" The boys heard Primrose's yell and walked to their direction.

"Hey Prim!" Harry chimed. Ron greeted her as well. "Hey, Prim. We just put our luggage." They heard a clang and turned to watch the big clock turn 10:59.

"Let's get on the train." Hermione said. They got on the train, and joined Seamus and Ginny at the compartment, and with that The Hogwarts Express was on its way to Hogwarts.

On the train, the girls wanted to change already into their uniforms. Hermione, Ginny and Primrose went to the restroom to change. While fixing her tie, Prim thought to herself 'This is out last year. I remember the first time I set my foot at Hogwarts! I'm definitely going to miss it.' The girls walked out of the restroom.

"This is out last year, Herm-" Primrose turned to say to Hermione, but was cut off when she accidently collided with someone.

She fell to the ground and heard sniggering "Watch your back, Hill!" Ginny helped her up, and Prim got a good look at the person she crashed into: Malfoy.

"You should be careful if I were you, Hill." Malfoy smirked at her.

Primrose mirrored his smirk "Or what?"

Malfoy replied "Or you'll get hurt, 'blood traitor'." Prim heard a soft gasp from Hermione, but she didn't mind. He called her that because she came from a pureblood family and she had muggleborn and halfblood friends.

There was a pregnant pause until Prim sniffed and scrunched up her nose and asked "Do I smell a ferret here?" Ginny and Hermione snorted, to the Slytherin's displeasure. Primrose could've sworn she saw Malfoy's cheeks flush when he left without saying anything.

"I should've hexed him!" Ginny sneered.

Primrose shook her head "Your Bat-Bogey hex is the best I've seen, but he isn't worth it." They walked back to their compartment, howling with laughter at Prim's comment.

Meanwhile, Malfoy and his friends walked back to their compartment. He was still furious about her comment. 'Stupid Hill! Why did she have to bring it up, especially around Weasley and Granger? Damn that blood traitor!' He slammed the compartment door after him and thought again to himself 'She isn't worth your fury, Draco.' and he gradually calmed down.

Back at Prim's compartment, they were enjoying themselves and ate sweets. Hermione mentioned their incident with Malfoy.

"What did he say to you?" Seamus quickly asked Prim.

Prim shook her head "Nothing he hasn't called me before; a 'blood traitor'. He doesn't have new insults, I guess." Harry seethed and Ginny tried to calm him down. Seamus was clearly angry and was about to leave the compartment to hex him.

"No! Don't do it! He's not worth it and you'll get yourself into trouble." Seeing that she was right, Seamus sat down next to her.

"If he says anything to you again, I'll handle it." Prim smiled "Deal." and with that they shared a kiss.

They finally arrived. They took their time to take a glance at the castle from afar. Primrose felt a surge of tranquility; a familiar feeling she felt whenever she arrived to Hogwarts.

"This is our last time, guys." She addressed everyone except for Ginny; she had another year.

"It'll be weird to leave school." Harry added. Ron nodded. They waited for Hagrid to accompany them to the castle.

They entered the Great Hall with awe. Hundreds of candles were levitated in the air, and four very long tables and benches were in front of them. Prim loved to look up at the ceiling; it took the form of skies and clouds. "It's bewitched, Prim." She looked at Hermione and chuckled at her comment.

"I've known that since our first year because of you. You always come prepared." Prim replied and Hermione chuckled. They sat down at the Gryffindor table.

"Welcome, students, to another year at Hogwarts!" The students turned to see Professor McGonagall speak.

"Last year, we lost a remarkable man, our previous headmaster, Professor Dumbledore." There was a deafening silence after she paused.

"It was a tragedy. We must move on, but never forget." She finished speaking about him, and with that a new sorting was occurring.

After the new students sat down in their assigned houses, dinner was served. While eating, Primrose felt a shudder down her spine, as if she was being watched; and she was: Malfoy was watching her, and smirking. She caught his gaze and her eyes slit. "Sod off!" She mouthed to him. His smirk widened, and she broke the gaze. She turned to Seamus, who asked her if she wanted rice. She shook her head and caressed his cheek.

After dinner, the students departed to their dormitories. Primrose and her friends entered the Gryffindor common room. She slumped on one of the armchairs and sighed.

"I love this place!" She shouted.

Seamus laughed at her and said "I love it too.", but she wasn't sure he meant Hogwarts. The others, to her surprise, felt her puzzlement, left and bade the couple good night.

She got up from the armchair and asked "What did you say?"

Seamus put his hands in his back pockets and said "I said 'I love it too'."

Prim raised her eyebrow and asked "What did you mean?"

Seamus came closer to her and cupped her face with his hands "I love your glasses, your personality, your beauty, YOU!" Prim was surprise; they've been dating for several months. She never thought he felt this way about her, but she knew it was mutual. He was her not her first boyfriend, but he was the only one she felt this way about him.

"Me too, Seamus." He grinned at her and kissed her.

"You've made me the happiest guy alive! Good night!" She laughed at his comical walk up the boys' staircase.

"Good night!" Prim giggled. She went up to her room, to reveal her friends in their nightwear.

She sat down on her bed and said with a smile "He loves me." and Ginny and Hermione smiled at their lovesick friend.
