A/N: Hey guys! This is a rewrite of an old story that I was just going to put on my tumblr but I thought I'd put it on here too! So enjoy!
Moira Stark and Lucius Malfoy had been best friends forever, their parents knew each other from the Ministry of Magic so the pair had always been together. And now, at 11 years old they are starting school together at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it was a school where young witches and wizards studied until they were 17 years old. Moira and Lucius were both from pure blood families, meaning that their families were full blooded witches and wizards.
The first years stepped off their wooden boats and were led into the Entrance Hall where they were welcomed into Hogwarts by a strict looking witch. Her name was Professor McGonagall and she was the head of Gryffindor house. She left the first years for a minutes as she walked into into the Great Hall, as soon as she had left an outburst of excited talking filled the Entrance Hall.
"I hope we're both in Slytherin together, it's the best house here." Lucius said and took Moira's hand as a boy with dark hair scowled and shook his head at Lucius which made her giggle. The boy flashed her a charming smile and introduced himself.
"I'm Sirius, these are my friends, James, Remus and Peter." He said shaking her hand and gesturing to the other boys.
"I'm Moira, it's so nice to meet you all." Moira smiled at them all and pushed her golden curls out of her eyes.
"They are ready for you." Professor McGonagall had reappeared and took the students into the Great Hall.
It was a magnificent room, with four long tables and a dozen candles floated in mid air. A dozen ghosts floated along the tables and greeted the new students, Moira looked up and saw with delight that the ceiling reflected the night sky. It was a clear September night, stars scattered across the sky. Moira's brother Finn waved at her from the Slytherin table and she managed a tight smile and waved back at him, her insides churning with nerves.
"We'll always be together won't we?" Moira asked Lucius.
"Of course we will" He replied smiling at her.
But it was not to be, as Moira sat at the front of the hall with the weight of the Sorting Hat on her head she was sorted into Gryffindor. She saw Lucius' face fall and her brother smiled at her encouragingly as she sat at the Gryffindor table in between Sirius and a girl called Lily. She watched her best friend get sorted into Slytherin and wondered what was to come.
At the beginning of their school career they tried, they really did try to stay friends despite their rival houses but it was no use. Moira grew closer with Sirius, James, Remus, Peter and Lily, quickly becoming best friends. Moira and Lucius grew further apart. Tragedy struck in Moira's third year when she watched her brother Finn die from a werewolf bite at St Mungo's, the wizard hospital.
Now Moira is starting her sixth year and she and Lucius couldn't be further apart. The days when it seemed that they were going to be together forever were long gone.
