As cliched as it sounds it was love at first sight. Harry had found a cabin on the train only to see the most gorgeous guy he'd ever seen in his life. He had black hair and dark eyes. And his smile... It took Harry four times to talk.

"M-May I s-sit h-ere." he finally asked.

"Sure." the guy motioned to the seat across from him. "I'm Aries Riddle and you are?"

Harry swallowed again.

"H-Harry."

"Potter?" Harry sighed and nodded, "Well good to meet you. Like I said I'm Aries I'm a Slytherin Fifth year."

"Oh?" Harry asked, staring up at him through his bangs. "I'm sorry I don't know much about the Wizard World to be honest. I was raised by Muggles and the giant who came to bring me my letter didn't tell me anything except I'm famous for something or other. He didn't explain anything at all. I got a few books but I don't really understand much...if it's not a problem can you help me?"

"Of course." Aries smiled. He moved to sit next to Harry to see that Harry was blushing. He smirked to himself it was so easy to get people to like him but he'd never had anyone fall in love with him so quickly. Maybe he could use this to his favor. Make sure that Dumbledore didn't get his hooks in him. They began right away and Harry showed he was smart by learning quickly and asking all sorts of questions.

As the train began moving the door to the cabin opened and again Aries sneered a Weasley. So Dumbledore was trying to place his people already.

"May I join you ?" The Weasley asked, "Every where else is full."

"Really?" Aries asked, arm slipping from the back of the seat to Harry's shoulder. Harry blushed crimson but kind of leaned in to him. " We've only started moving and I watched you get on you didn't have enough time to search the whole train." The Weasley's face went red in anger. "You can leave. I'm teaching Harry some things and he needs to focus."

Weasley burst into the room and sat down.

"You're probably teaching him Dark Magic!" Ron accused. "You snake. "

"I did not say you could come in here." Aries popped his wand out and levitated Ron out of the room and into the hall then locked the door to him. Ron began pounding on it. He was yelling that Harry couldn't believe a word that the Snake said. "Don't listen to him. I'm here to help you"

Harry stared up at him with the most beautiful Emerald eyes he'd ever seen. He caught his breath. Harry's eyes were full of nothing but trust

"It's okay, i trust you." Harry said, "I don't think I like him. He was already acting like we were best friends and he was so mean to you. I don't like bullies. "

"Really?" Aries asked, for some reason he was feeling very attracted to this small boy. He was making plans in his head. He noted that Harry was small and skinny for his age. He was curious about that. "I need to write a letter. Want to hold my owl?"

"Sure." Harry said, "But Hedwig might get jealous. " He pointed to his owl. "She's pretty isn't she? The giant Hagrid bought her for me."

"She is amazingly beautiful. " Aries got an owl treat out of his pocket and fed it to Hedwig who whoo'd her thanks. He then let his owl out. "This is Hermes. "

"Hello, Hermes. " Harry said, and gently petted the black owl. "You're so cute." Hermes whoo'd and preened. Harry noted that Aries was writing. "Can you teach me how to do that? Write with a quill? I'm not really good at it and end up getting ink everywhere."

"Sure but you should have gotten practice packets."

"I didn't it."

"I'm writing to Professor Snape he's the Potions Professor I'll ask him to send some back."

"Potions?" Harry asked excitedly. " That sounds like the coolest subject that I've read about and I'm really excited to learn it!"

Aries smirked and wrote that all down making sure that he wrote it as a direct quote from Harry. He wrote some other stuff down and sent it off.

"I'm rather good at Potions and I need to review for my O.W.L.S. so why don't I teach you about it some?"

"REALLY ?!" HArry asked, excitedly. "OH , PLEASE! PLEASE!"

Aries chuckled and pulled out some books and they began he made sure he knew the difference between chopping and dicing and other techniques like that and interactions. Harry soaked it all up asking any question that popped into his head. Finally, some of his questions went of topic.

"What's that badge there?" he touched the badge on Aries' chest. Then blushed at his daring they were both in their robes. "I'm s-sorry. "

"No, need to be. " Aries chuckled, smiling at him. Making Harry blush worse. "It's a Prefect badge. " He quickly explained what a Prefect was and why and how he was one. "See?"

"I want to be a prefect !" Harry declared, "I know I can get good grades and I'll do my best to not get in trouble!"

Aries chuckled.

"If you get into the right house you can get into some trouble as long as you don't get caught. " Aries said, with a chuckle. he rubbed his hand gently into Harry's head, getting a beam in return for the gesture. "Any other questions?"

"Tons!" Harry said, hyperly.

As Harry asked questions and Aries answered Aries was trying to figure out what the hell was going on with him. He'd never felt like this about anyone before. He'd just met Harry and he was already in love. He was being intimate with Harry already! Running fingers through his hair! Talking to him in a soft voice! He wanted to be closer to Harry but stopped himself because Harry was only 11. He vowed though that one day he would make Harry his and would never let Dumbledore get his hooks into him
