Hello, I decided to redo this story. I didn't like where it was going before so originally I was just going to delete it, but I changed my mind when I read over it and saw all the issues. So here is the new and improved version of Permanent High.

Summer is over and we all know what that means…school. Awesome right? Okay not really. I hate school as much as the next person, and this year is no different. Except that I'm going to Hogwarts.

I was already sitting on the train with an unlit cigarette in my mouth, having arrived extra early for no apparent reason. Looking out the window that I was leaning against I noticed more people arriving.

It was starting to get loud and annoying so I pulled my iPod out of my bag and put the huge noise cancelling headphones over my ears. I heard the beginning of one of my favorite songs as I lit the cig that was still hanging from my mouth.

The compartment door slid open, but I didn't bother to look at who it was because the door closed without anyone coming in.

The door opened a couple minutes, but this time someone sat down in the seat across from me. She had long blonde hair and blue eyes that where starring me down.

I looked at her out of the corner of my eyes and I saw her lips move, she must've been introducing herself. Moving the left headphone behind my ear so I could her I asked "You say something?"

"Yes, my name is Luna Lovegood," I nodded. "The names Miranda."

She smiled, "Nice to meet you." I opened the window and threw the cigarette butt I was just smoking out.

Reaching for another one I noticed that Luna was still looking at me, "You want one?"

"Oh. No thanks," shrugging my shoulders I muttered "Your loss," and lit the new cig that was hanging between my lips.

"I take it that you're new."

I didn't respond because it was more of an observation than an actual question.

"Well either way I hope we can become good friends." This time I turned my head to look at her full on.

Sure she seemed nice, but I could already tell that we had nothing in common. Besides I'm not here to make friends, I'm here to get through my last year of school.

The rest of the ride was pretty much quiet, with the exception of my headphones that were blasting away in my ears.

Once the train came to a stop I followed all the students to a bunch of carriages that where being pulled by some strange horse type creature. But I didn't stare at them for too long as I quickly got on the carriage.

I was glad to get out of the carriage but that was short lived once a giant confronted me. "You're new aren't ya?"

I nodded in response, "Then you should follow me."

I was taken to the main entrance of the Hogwarts castle where I became surrounded by a bunch of short first years. We waited for a few minutes before the doors opened on there own and immediately all eyes were on us, with a few more on me seeing as I was obviously a new 7th year.

"Miranda Miller." I heard my name and made my way to the front. I sat down on the stool as a hat was placed on my head. 'Hm…very interesting. I can see that you're very smart, but have yet to prove that in the past. You're very brave, but not big on loyalty, as cunning as they come. You'll do good in…'

"Slytherin!"

There was applause coming from my right as the hat was taken off and I walked over to the table and took a seat all the way at the end away from everyone else.

After the sorting dinner was quick and mildly painless, but as I followed everyone else back to what they called the common room things finally started to get interesting.

"Hey, you got anymore bud?" I looked up and saw a tall dark skinned guy around my age talking to a blonde boy who obviously could've done so much better than the dark haired pug faced abomination hanging onto his arm.

He shook his head, "You know how hard it is to sneak that stuff into this school."

"Obviously not hard at all." All three of them turned around to look at me.

"What? You got some?" asked the dark skinned one.

"Of course. If you guys want to join me I don't mind sharin' a blunt with you."

"That would be so great. I'm Pansy, what's your name again?"

"Miranda. How 'bout you two?" I said nodding my head towards the two males of the group.

"Blaise Zabini."

"Draco Malfoy."

After settling into my room, which I shared with Pansy and two other girls, we walked over to Malfoy's room so that we could smoke.

Once inside and more introductions were made to two more guys named Crabbe and Goyle we got comfortable on the floor and I pulled a tiny box out of my pocket and whispered a spell to make it normal sized.

The box was a foot tall by a foot wide; everyone was looking at me now. I just smirked as I lifted the lid showing off all its contents, everyone leaned closer to get a better look. It was enough weed and coke to last me the first month. I actually brought four similar boxes, one for each month, that way I could last 'til Christmas, hopefully.

Blaise, leaning in more, said "Damn! That's a lot of bud."

I looked at them like they were crazy "This is nothing."

I pulled out one of the ounce bags, a blunt wrapper and a grinder. This was some of the best stuff money could buy. No seeds or stems and the weed was sticky with crystals all over it. I ground it up and put some of it in the wrapper and rolled it up.

I took the first few hits then passed it to Blaise on my left. He took two hits and held it in as he passed it to Malfoy, who did the same. Pansy was a little different. Once the joint was in her hands she just stared at it and then looked up at all of us.

"Let me guess, you don't know what the fuck to do?" I asked her bluntly.

"Of course I know what to do!" she yelled at me.

"It's just like smoking a cig," she still looked confused. I rolled my eyes and laughed at her.

"I knew it, you've never smoked anything a day in your life. You're just trying to impress these guys and failing miserably."

She was ready to keep arguing with me, but decided against it. Putting the joint to her lips she mimicked what everyone else had done. She inhaled, more then she could handle, and had a very harsh coughing fit on the exhale.

Everyone laughed at her pathetic attempt and Crabbe grabbed the joint from her before she dropped it.

It was passed around two more times before it was gone. I pulled out a cig and lit it; I wasn't high but I was getting there. Everyone else was starting to feel the effects. You could tell by their conversation, which I was tuning in and out of.

"Is that all you guys ever talk about?" Pansy was complaining about the new conversation topic, which sense we were surround by a bunch of guys didn't surprise me.

"Pretty much," answered Blaise as he and Draco fell over while laughing.

"Seriously Pansy, if you're going to hang out with them you need to get used to this. Sex is all guys talk and think about. Either get over it or go hang out with someone else."

"You're sticking up for them?"

"No, I'm just saying get used to it or get out." That shut her up. It did surprise me though, I thought she had more fight in her; then again maybe she's too high right now.

"Anyway, back to the conversation, Blaise is right," "You agree that having sex with muggles is better," Draco argued.

"Not just better, entertaining. Muggles have porn and all these different toys and pills that add to your pleasure. Witches and wizards just do different positions. It can get boring after a while."

"Exactly, hell Malfoy you should know, you've done it with almost every chick in this school," Blaise said nudging Malfoy as he said it.

"What?" Pansy shrieked.

"Don't sound so surprised, everyone knows including you. You're just in denial."

"He's got ya there. I'm new and even I can tell that Draco gets plenty of ass." Everyone but Pansy was laughing at this point.

She stood and actually stormed out of the room, slamming the door as she went.

Blaise nudged my shoulder with his hand, "You're funny as hell. I like you," "Thanks I guess you guys aren't so bad," "You guess?"

"Well you did get pretty fucked up from one blunt."

"Yeah well sorry we don't get the chance to smoke as often as you," said Draco nodding towards my box that was still out.

I pulled out another blunt wrapper and started to roll another one up with the rest of the bud that was still in the grinder, "Trust me, after a week with me, you'll be able to smoke as much I do and more."
