Short Introduction
Astoria Greengrass was born into a "high society wealthy pureblood family". Nearly all of these families are slytherins. They aren't snobbish or mean like most people think. They just like keeping to themselves. That was until The Dark Lord came. He himself was a slytherin so naturally he valued Slytherin followers beyond all others. It was then that the higher society of wealthy pureblood slytherins started to isolate themselves from the rest of the wizarding world even more. Most of these families like Malfoy, Nott, Parkinson, Crabbe, Goyle, Avery, and so on are families with death eaters. Greengrass however was not. Astoria's father, Maricon runs a big wizarding business. His wife Aricia is on terms with many of the pureblood families.
Ever since they were young the pureblood children would be brought to social events by their parents. They got to know each other pretty well before they started attending Hogwarts. Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zabini,Theodore Nott, Gregory Goyle, Vincent Crabbe, Pansy Parkinson, Daphne Greengrass all are the same age and have become great friends ever since their first social event. Astoria on the other hand is two years their junior and was always the youngest at these gatherings.
Astoria has always been quite and shy. However she stood up for her beliefs. Whenever there was one of those pureblood parties at the host's mansion she would always search for the library there.
During a party at Nott Mansion before her sister and her gang started their year at Hogwarts she located the library as usual and walked in to find someone already there. It was Theo. He looked up to find Astoria watching him. "I don't mind," he had said gesturing to the tall shelves of books. She eyed him curiously. He was thin and pretty tall, or she she noted, she was too short. He had dark brown hair, deep green eyes , and a smirk playing at his lips. "You know Astoria, just because I am in the library doesn't mean I'm a book, stop reading me." Astoria flushed. "Who said I was looking at you." She stalked over to a chair beside him ,sat down, and began reading. But since then they became great friends and would always read together at parties that the both of them considered boring.
The Greengrass sisters always had a certain connection with young Nott. It was as if they were really family. Astoria considered him a brother, one that she trusted and babbled all her problems to, and Theo in turn found himself very protective of her.
