Seeing these three strangly beautiful people at Hogwarts was beyond anything that I had ever had to compreheand. There were two girls and a boy, all looking to be about 17 years old. Even though they all were beautifully pale, and all sort of looked like each other, there was no way that they could be biological siblings. The shorter girl had beautiful long brown hair, with deep golden eyes. As a matter of fact, they all had deep golden eyes. The other girl had short black hair, almost like Pansy's but prettier in a way. The young man had long, shaggy blonde hair, like mine, except his was wilder and not as platinum blonde as mine.

"Draco, are you even listening to me?" Pansy asked me suddenly. I turned my attention back to her. She stared at me so intensly, I thought I was going to shit my pants. "Yeah, I didn't think you were." She added, seeing the confusion in my eyes. "If were going to be boyfriend and girlfriend, you have to listen to me and pay attention to me at all times."

"Whatever." I said, and turned back towards the Hufflepuff table where the new arrivals were sitting. The boy and the black haired girl were sitting fairly close, so I assumed that they were already a couple, and the way the brunette sat next to the boy, that they had to be brother and sister. It sort of made me smile that these American's could all come over together, already knowing each other. Pansy was still going on about something when the Headmaster stood and began his 'beginning of the year speech'. "Pansy, shut your mouth." I whispered and saw her eyes widden in shock at me.

"This year, we're doing a foreign exchange program with a few students from America. I'm sure you have already noticed our guests who, for this short time that they are with us, have been sorted into Hufflepuff. If you see any one of them in the halls, please try to be as helpful and as courtious as possible. Thank you."

With this, the Headmaster sat, and the food appeared before us on golden platters. "Draco, who the fuck do you think you are?" Pansy asked, as I began to put some food on my plate. "No one has ever told me to close my mouth."

"Then maybe you'd better learn to do it before I have to close it for you." I whispered so low that she almost didn't hear it. "Pass the pumpkin juice, will you?"

She passed me the juice and didn't say anything for the rest of dinner. After dinner, I walked back to the Slytherin dorms alone, since I was trying to avoid Pansy and trying to catch the brunette alone, with out her brother or sister, or whatever they were. I walked as slow and as deliberately as I could, trying to find her. Just when I was about to give up, I saw her standing outside the Hufflepuff portrait by herself. "Excuse me," I said, walking over to her. "Can I help you with something?"

"Yes, actually." She said, practically singing each word. Her voice was a beautiful mix between soprano and alto, and it was the sweetest sound I had ever heard in my entire life. "I can't seem to get this picture to open, and I need to get into my room. My brother and sister are already inside while I stopped at the bathroom after dinner."

I stared at her for a few minutes, her beautiful features shining even in the darkness of the hallway. She looked at me, expectantly. "Oh, I'm sorry, I was lost in thought for a second." She smiled at me and giggled a little. "All you need to do is say the password that was given to you and the portrait should open."

"Oh, thank you. That makes so much more sence. I was just trying to open it and I couldn't figure out why all of the people kept laughing at me." She answered, saying the password. "I'm Natalie, by the way. Natalie Hale." She added, winking at me.

"I'm Draco. Nice to meet you." I said, bowing slightly. "I'm Head Boy, so if you ever need any help, please feel free to let me know."

"Draco. . . that's a cute name, I like it." She said, laughing again. It sounded like wind chimes, and I suddenly wanted to kiss her. "I'll see you tomorrow?" She said, and I made note that it was a question, and not a statement.

"Yes, anytime." Was all I responded. She blew me a kiss and stepped through the portrait for a night of blissful sleep.

I smiled as I cought the kiss and placed it on my cheek. I stood there for a few minutes, trying to decifer what had just happened. I soon realized that it was definitely way past time for Filtch to be checking the halls for late students, and being Head Boy I couldn't really afford to get a detention on the first day back.
