Chapter 1
Returning to Hogwarts
Today is the day. The day she will have the recognition she deserves, and she was excited about it.
Halle deepest desire from the age of eleven was to be a prefect in HOGWARTS School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Her favorite bed time story was HOGWARTS a history. She couldn't sleep without hearing her mother voice reading a passage from the precious book. Leon always teased her about it. Unlike her, Leon didn't care for books at all; his favorite past time was Quidditch after all. Father always prided himself about that.
She pouted at her reflection in the mirror. "I took after mother I suppose". Hermione Malfoy was known for her love of knowledge. She was known as the most brilliant witch to ever graduate from HOGWARTS.
So when she was assigned as a prefect this year, it was no surprise how happy was Halle about it.
A bang at her door woke her from her daydreaming.
''Yes"
"Come on Halle, father and mother is waiting down stairs, so stop stalling or we'll miss the train", Leon shouted at her through the door.
They reached the train station in their luxurious carriage in no time; her father let her get through the barrier at Platform 9 3/4 first. Here it is the beloved HOGWARTS express.
Halle was looking around searching for a familiar face, only to find him staring at her.
'Him' was of course the one and only Daren Weasley. No one had ever looked at her like this, no one but him have ever dared. Halle felt herself flush under his intense gaze. What is it about him that made her react this way?
She was a sensible down to earth girl. But when he was around she turned into one of those silly school girls who couldn't say a complete sentence in front of their crushes.
But he hates me. She told her self. He never liked me. Well, like is an understatement. He loathes me. From the first year I entered HOGWARTS when he knew that my name was Malfoy he hated me. For four years he treated me as an enemy despite that I was with him in Gryffindor. He always teases me and calls me a book worm who doesn't have friends and to go were I belong in Slythrin. I am the only Malfoy in Gryffindor. Well, my mother was in Gryffindor so it isn't a weird thing I ended there.
Halle removed her eyes from him when she heard a feminine voice calling her. A tall blonde girl with blue eyes and curvy body was waving at her. Susan Wood always looked like a goddess. She was in Ravenclaw and she was Halle's only friend.
Halle waved back. "You look amazing Susan, did you get taller?" Halle said looking at her tall womanly figure.
Susan's laugh was like music when she replayed "Well, yes. Did you notice?" she said smiling.
"I would be blind if I didn't" Halle replied.
"You look amazing too, Halle", she said kindly. She looked at my short and small body with sincerity in her eyes.
I always knew I am not as attractive as Susan. With a light brown curly hair and ordinary brown eyes, there was nothing to be amazed about. I am short with a larger than medium breast that annoys me and feels awkward sometimes. My skin is so white that you could mistake me for a vampire. The only feature that I love about my self is my lips. They are small, red and full. But my brain is one of my most prized possessions.
It never bothered me that Susan was more beautiful than me, but when I see Daren looking at her with admiration I feel as some one is squeezing my heart.
A hand in my shoulder startled me from my painful thoughts. I looked behind me and there was mother looking at me with a sweet smile that brought me out of my misery.
My mother Hermione Malfoy was one of the loveliest witches in the wizards' world. Father always looks at her with wonder as if he doesn't believe that this wonderful creature is really his wife.
The look in his eyes when he looks at her! I wish I could have some one who would look at me like this.
"Is every thing okay, Halle?"
"Yes, mother", I replied. She smiled and kissed me on my forehead. Then she turned to Susan. "Hello there Susan, look how much you grew up. You look lovely"
"Thank Mrs. Malfoy. You're so kind" Susan was blushing in shyness.
"I am sure this year will be a wonderful year for you two, with you being prefects and attending your first ball. Which reminds me, Halle dear did you check that your dress robe is in your bags?"
I nodded when the train whistled announcing that it is time to depart. Father and mother kissed me goodbye. Leon shook father hand acting all manly. But mom kissed him despite his protest.
Looking through the window I waved goodbye to my parents hoping this year would be a perfect year.
