Through the Snake Eyes

CH.1 Anticipation

"RILEY! Hey Riley come on get up! Your going to be late for the train!"

"Yeah yeah I'm (yawn) up!"

Today was the day I would board the Hogwarts Express for my fifth time. I woke drowsily rubbing my eyes. I looked around my room (extremely messy), which was normally pretty tidey but looked like a tornado hit it, because I had packed in a rush the night before. My black owl with faint white stripes started hooting very loudly as he came through the window.

"Oh my goodness. Sammy I didnt know I let you out last night. Hm. Maybe Mom heard you hooting and let you hunt. Oh well. Hey whats in your beak?" Sammy came over to my bed and dropped a envelope with the words Riles written upon it.

"Oh its from Malfoy. Thanks Sammy. Here ya go." I handed him a corn nut I usually kept in my night stand to reward him after bringing my letters. He looked at it with distaste and simply flew back in his cage after seeing my nearly packed trunk. He knew we were leaving today.

"Oh I guess your not hungry after hunting. Well I'll just save it for later." I opened the letter with a little bit of excitement. I hadn't seen Malfoy (my boyfriend of 2 years) all summer. He had been on a trip in Switzerland with his parents. So the only contact we had was through post.

Dear Riles, which wa shis nickname for me,

We arrived home early yesterday and I cant wait to see you. It seems like its been so long. I think something might be wrong with Sammy. He wasn't excepting any food I offered him. But he did nip at my fingers, a little too rough. He tore skin off of two of them. No worries though I'll be alright. In your last letter you mentioned something about Hermione. About maybe getting together with her and Potter and maybe Weasley.
Listen I thought I told you I didn't like them? I really cant stand the thought of you being around them. Especially Weasley.They really aren't good enough for you
.

I rolled my eyes at this part. Malfoy had lectured me for the past 2 years not to hang out with them. But I figured it wasn't up to Malfoy to decide who I should be friends with. Hermione and Ron's little sister Ginny were my best friends. Plus I had grown rather fond of Harry. I had known Ron a year before we started at Hogwarts because our families are close friends. I just figured if I talked about them little as possible to Malfoy it wouldn't be too big of a deal.

But anyways I'm not going to go into that again. I mainly wrote to tell you I miss you terribly and I cant wait to see you on the train. I may arrive a bit late so if you could please possibly save me a seat. Although I have already warned Crabbe and Goyle they should do so.

"Ick!" I said aloud. I really didn't care too much for Crabbe and Goyle. I felt as if they needed their own lives. Always following Malfoy around. Clunking in and out of things eating everything they saw. Plus they would make crude gestures to me when Malfoy wasn't looking. I of course never told him about any of that because I knew how angry he would be. So I just dealt.

Well I guess I will see you in a couple of days. Looking forward to it. Oh and I got a surprise for you. I got it in Switzerland.
Draco

I then became more excited for school. Everyone thought Malfoy to be bit of a jerk. Maybe he was to them I don't know. But he seemed different with me. He was very sweet. I jumped out of bed put on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt and ran down the hall to my bathroom. I grabbed my brush and pulled my brown straight hair, which was below my shoulders, into a messy bun. Brushed my teeth and threw on some makeup then rushed downstairs. I greeted my mom with a kiss on the cheek and a huge smile.

"Oh I see you're all of a sudden looking forward to school. Let me guess. You got another letter from Draco didn't you?" My mom refused to call him by his last name.

"Yeah I did."

"Well?"

"Well he just basically said he missed me. And. Plus he got me something in Switzerland." I beamed.

"Oh how sweet. Eat up your eggs and have some pancakes. I'll go grab your trunk and when your done we'll leave."

"Ok." I started to eat with my smile never leaving my face. I still felt so incredibly lucky I was with Malfoy. I found it kind of funny that he hated Ron so much but I think it was because me and Ron dated the year before me and Draco did. Ron and I might still be together but something weird happened. The day after he bought me this really nice bracelet he broke up with me. I didn't feel right keeping it so I gave it back to him. He said something happened and he couldnt see me anymore. I was really upset but I guess it was fate because I ended up with someone I love. He doesnt talk to me too much unless hes around Hermione or Harry when I'm talking to them. I tried asking Ginny a couple of times if she knew what happened but she said she never did. I never found out why he dumped me but I just forgot about it.

I was also in Slytherin with Draco. Everyone thinks that anyone who is sorted in their goes bad but its not true. Both my parents were in the house and they both are Aurors. Dark wizard hunters.Not dark wizards. I also want to be an auror after Hogwarts.

I finished my pancakes post taste and ran up the stairs to brush my teeth again. I wanted to make sure I was minty fresh when I saw Malfoy. Just as I finished, my mom called for me to meet her in the car.

"Finally! I'm going back to Hogwarts!"
