"And this...this is the common room" Adelaide announced to the excited and anxious group of first years as she ushered them through the passage she wondered if any of them would react to the room the way she had her first year with fear and disappointment her entire family had been sorted into Slytherin over the years but none of them had prepared her for spending roughly ten months out of her year in what was essentially a decked out dungeon and it hadn't exactly helped that the dungeon extended part way under the lake for the first two weeks she had laid awake at night scared that a natural disaster would leave her drowned in her bed although she quickly realized this was a ridiculous thing to be afraid of the common room glowed with a greenish tint as the light shone through the green lamps placed strategically around the room "this is where you'll be spending many late nights doing your homework and studying for exams you'll pray to merlin that you pass" you gave them all an unaffected smile you heard a faint chuckle from behind you "don't worry everyone she's only joking slytherins don't do homework they get ravenclaws to do it for them" this comment earned a few laughs from the boys and irritatingly high-pitched giggles from the girls you glanced over your shoulder with a look of pure contempt on your face "this would be Tristan Archer he is another one of your prefects although I would strongly suggest ignoring everything he says" "really Addie urging the first years not to listen to their authority figure that isn't very responsible of you" you dug your nails into the palm of your hand before turning to face him you were caught slightly off guard by the impish grin plastered on his face "where were you! You were supposed to be helping me" you said in an aggressive whisper "you seem to have it all under control" he said and that's when you smelt it your eyes grew wide "i...is that fire whiskey" you said trying to keep your cool he rolled his eyes at you "it was one shot not an entire bottle" you ran your hand through your hair in exasperation and turned back to the first years who seemed to just be chatting amongst themselves and trying to avoid eye contact with anyone who was in a year above them "the password to the common room changes every two weeks and will be posted on the noticeboard I would strongly suggest you remember to check the noticeboard because I can promise if any of the prefects have to come and get you it's not going to be pretty" Tristan took a step forward "she's right you know the last time a prefect had to go and fetch one of you little first years he was so angry he decided to perform a stretching jinx I swear the boy is still walking around with a neck ten feet long...oh well I guess he can't really walk just lays in bed with his neck coiled round' on the floor like a snake" a few of the first years eyes grew wide in terror but you were to tired to tell them it was a joke not to mention in all honesty you didn't particularly like first years from any house but especially slytherin first years they walked around screaming out racist comments and acting superior to everyone else causing the house nothing but trouble at least in the other houses they had the decency to keep their mouths shut and stay out of the way "we'll be showing you to your rooms now boys follow Tristan girls follow me"
You punched your pillow in an attempt to release the anger pent up inside you "I'm going to kill him I swear I am!" you talked loudly into your pillow so your best friend Braison could hear you you looked up at her through the blonde hair that had fallen in your face to see a look of sympathy displayed on her face you quickly swiped it out of your face "I will never understand the relationship the two of you have honestly how is it that he manages to anger you this much by the end of the first night every year we've only been here a few bloody hours" you could tell that she was slightly irritated and you knew she deserved to be after listening to you complain every year you went to open your mouth to respond but she beat you to it "I know I know he's Satan" a smile spreads across your face "actually I was going to say he's the reincarnation of one of the algea the Greek spirits of pain, suffering, grief, sorrow and, distress but if you want to put it in simple terms that works too" Brai raised an eyebrow "what were you working on that all summer or am I going to have to start taking ancient studies to understand what in the world you're saying now?" you tossed your pillow at her which she caught with ease "so are we going to go out to the common room or are we going to wallow in here all night long?" you groaned and got up walking over to your wardrobe you could already tell that she was smiling in triumph "it's only fair that if I have to listen to your whining I get to have a little bit of fun" you switched your robes for a black V-neck top and a pair of skinny jeans sliding on your socks covered in doxy's although your parents had never been a fan of it you'd always preferred the muggle style of dressing it was so much comfier than robes and dresses you eyed yourself in the mirror your long blonde hair was messy but not in an unattractive manner your make up had faded away but the effects of the mascara you had on were still visible around your dark blue eyes you looked over at Brai in her green tank top which complimented her bright red hair and jeans and immediately made eye contact with her breasts " so um did you use an engorgement charm on those over the summer or?" a huge grin spread across her face "jealous?" she asked jokingly" you just laughed "not really I sense extreme back pain in your future"
As the two of you headed down the hall you could already hear a good amount of fifth sixth and seventh years gathered in the common room along with the faint sound of music as you wandered out of the hallway you could see that people already had drinks in their hands and any seating space was completely taken up as you scanned the room you spotted Tristan and his band of miscreants and for a second you couldn't help put wonder how it was that he always looked so perfect and casual he was leaning back against the side of the lit fireplace placing a glow on his face that just made his amber eyes glow brighter than they usually did and as usual his dark brown hair was perfectly messy you could tell he was the kind of boy who spent ages in order to get that messy hair kind of look he wore a tight fitting red shirt which showed off the definition is his arms and chest you weren't quite sure how he had acquired muscle of any kind since you never seen him doing anything that might strain him mentally or physically as your eyes made their way back up from his stomach you made eye contact and seen his signature smirk he raised his cup your way before you turned away your face flushed red from the embarrassment of being caught checking him out you noticed Brai had already disappeared you spotted her across the room talking to Wesley her long time crush and the head boy you had never really been sure what she seen in him he had alway's seemed to serious for her but then again you weren't exactly one who could comment on another person's seriousness but that wasn't exactly the problem with him it was the fact that he appeared to be disinterested in everything even now he hadn't even glanced in brai's direction as she rambled on he was just staring ahead at the wall you just shook your head and scanned the room again looking for a friendly face when you spotted the twins just as they spotted you "ADELAIDE!" they both yelled in unison they had always been a little bit to loud but they were both so unbelievably sweet you couldn't hold it against them you participated in an awkward three way hug before pulling away your eyebrows shooting up in surprise "piper your hair is ...pink" you couldn't hold back the amused expression on your face Nora beat piper to the punch "of course she always has to be different she said she just couldn't stand people mistaking her for me not when she has such a unique personality" it may have sounded bitter to anyone else but you knew that Nora was just joking around "I like it" piper's normal hair colour was a raven black accompanied by eyes so dark that the irises could almost blend with the pupil most people thought this made the pair look sinister and when they were angry you couldn't help but agree "so how was your summer" piper said clearly trying to move along the conversation you bit your lip thinking over it "interesting to say the least" they both looked at you slightly curious when you felt a presence behind you and seen a hand with a cup in front of you "for you m'lady" you could feel your stomach clench as you heard Tristan's voice you spun around careful not to knock the drink out of his hand "I think you know that I don't drink Tristan" he faked shock at this revelation you had sprung on him " of course how could I forget that little miss responsible doesn't drink speaking of which I heard a lot of interesting things about your summer" your face twisted into a grimace an evil grin spread across his face "is it true that you jinxed your sister's new nanny?" your eyes grew slightly wide there was no way he could have possibly heard about that "of course not you said through gritted teeth "damn Addie I was hoping you had gotten a little bit more interesting this year" he said but something in his eyes showed that he knew you were lying he quickly downed the drink he had offered you as his friends wandered over Oliver and Parker had clearly had a little too much to drink and didn't appear to really be able to focus on anything you pointed at them "they clearly need to head to bed you do realize we have classes tomorrow" Tristan glanced over at the pair and nodded " you are probably right but I'll deal with that in a second" you could tell that he was about to say something else but you interrupted him by turning your attention to Sebastian "how was your summer Sebastian you were with your dad studying ancient runes in the middle east right?" Sebastian's face instantly lit up causing his bright green eyes to shine and you couldn't help noticing his dimples as a huge toothy smile lit up his face "yeah it was pretty amazing they discovered an entirely new scripture he's still up there right now trying to decipher it" you had a million question you wanted to ask him you could tell you had been the first one to ask him about his summer which wasn't a surprise considering how self-absorbed his friends were "hey Sebastian why don't you escort these two to their beds" Tristan said gently directing Oliver and parker in his direction Sebastian turned to you an apologetic look upon his face "we'll talk about it tomorrow? You are taking ancient studies this year right?" " of course" you both just stood there smiling at each other for a second before Tristan cleared his throat to indicate that Sebastian should leave you took the opportunity to leave as he watched him attempt to escort the two both down the hall without falling you walked over to Brai who was now talking to some people about a quidditch game she had seen over the summer "hey I'm going to head to bed I'm exhausted" you said she eyed you suspiciously and then looked over at Tristan who had clearly just noticed you left and was now being distracted by piper and Nora "Do you want me to come with you?" she asked appearing worried "no seriously I'm fine have fun" she just nodded her head but the look of concern never left her eyes you snuck down the hall to avoid further social contact and slipped into your room you quickly changed into your pajamas a silk green button up shirt with silver pajama shorts and slid into bed you weren't quite sure how to react to what Tristan had said you had jinxed the nanny and it didn't exactly surprise you to know that your parents had told his parents they had been friends since they were in school but you couldn't help but wonder if he knew why and if he knew anything else you had done that summer.
