Harry looked gloomily around the potions classroom. The first day of his
6th year was starting off horribly, he had double potions with Snape and it
was stormy outside so he couldn't visit Hagrid or play quiditch. Hermione
was sitting next to him, she was taking notes furiously and on the other
side of him was Ron, who was trying to make his quill stand on the
tabletop. He let out a long sigh and leaned back on his chair. He looked at
the clock near the blackboard, and let out another sigh, they only had been
in class for half an hour, so they had about another hour and a half to go.
Snape kept on dragging on about mandrake and cat fur or something while
shooting greasy stares around the class. Someone knocked on the door, and
Snape, obviously unhappy to be interrupted, opened the door. A girl stood
there, Harry looked at her for a moment and she seemed oddly familiar
although he was absolutely shore that he had never seen her in his life.
She had straight dark brown hair that fell a bit after her shoulders and
startling dark features.
"And you are, miss?" Snape asked
"Holly Black, sir" the girl said
"Well, come in Miss Black, ah and I can see that you're in my house"
Harry noted that the girl indeed had on the slytherin uniform. Wait...wait...BLACK? Holly BLACK? Calm down Harry, it could just be a coincidence, don't jump to conclusions! Harry mentally told himself.
"Miss Back, you can sit next to Draco Malfoy, who is also in slytherin and excellent in potions" Snape smirked and pointed to the empty seat next to Malfoy.
Ron leaned over to Harry "do you think that she is related to Sirius? She looks enough like him to be his daughter"
"I dunno, but I am starting to see the resemblance, maybe, maybe she is Sirius's daughter, he always said he wanted a daughter, but never said he had one" Harry said, slightly scared
Hermione stopped taking her notes and leaned over "I don't know how he could have a daughter, I always thought Sirius was well, gay, or afraid of women"
Harry and Ron were very shocked at this comment, it was so unlike Hermione.
"What?" Hermione demanded
"Since when did you call people gay, I wasn't even sure if you knew what that meant" Ron said shocked
"And who is afraid of women?" Harry said
Hermione simply raised an eyebrow.
They all turned around to look at the girl, who was chatting with Malfoy. Malfoy looked extremely cool yet happy to be talking to this girl, but Malfoy was always talking to pretty girls with no problem, but Harry noticed, that this was a different kind of 'talk'; it wasn't the flirty talking that Malfoy usually exercised on his usual girls, but it was in some way friendly, as if he actually wanted to be just friends with the new girl.
Ron made a funny snorting noise and leaned in to talk to Harry "He could get any girl he wanted, but why, does he have to get close to that one?"
"Ha, you don't like her do you? She's a slytherin!" Hermione butted in
"Well she is quite pretty don't you think?"
"Ron!"
"Oh stop it you two!" Harry muttered angrily
"But Harry" Hermione whispered "She's a slytherin!"
"Ron can fancy who ever he wants Hermione" Harry whispered back
"YOU don't fancy her as well do you?" Hermione asked
"That's totally wrong Hermione; she could be my god sister"
"But she IS pretty Harry" Hermione pressed on
"Hermione it sounds like YOU want HARRY to like holly" Ron butted in angrily
Hermione made a funny scoffing sound "of course I don't want Harry to like her"
"Miss Granger is there something you would like to share with the class?" Snape's oily voice rang about the dungeon
"No Sir, nothing at all" Hermione said hurriedly and began taking notes again
This is gonna be a long year Harry thought gloomily to himself as Snape continued to scowl at all three of them.

YAY my first chapter! I had written another version of this one, but my stupid computer's H drive crashed and IT couldn't retrieve any of my school work and the story that I had made, it was a damn long one too! But come to think of it this story is starting out much better than the last one, although it has taken me ages to write this chapter as I kept writing and re-writing bits of it. I've just read it and it's actually not that long, but hey, that means more chapters' yay! Sorry guys if I'm a bit weird, it's about 12.30am and I get my best ideas when I am half asleep so I am (very quietly) typing under the covers. Nite nite to all those people who are happily sleeping, and please review my story because the most reviews I have ever gotten are like 2, I no I no, that's so sad. Bye, Bye ox ox.
