Author's note: Hello, this is my very first Harry Potter fanfiction, this story is about Tom Riddle and OC but also Draco/OC, this is not the Draco we all know, more like a great uncle, just so there will be no confusion :p
1 What am I doing here?
Aileen saw the mighty castle from the boat on the Black lake. It was beautiful, lighted with candles and in a perfect state. She immediately felt a bit of a stomach-ache, stressed by how magical people would react to her appearance at Hogwarts, by wondering if she would ever fit in there. She remembered the day she met professor Charity Burbage at her university. She saw professor Burbage a couple of times at school wondering who she was. She looked different: she wore strange clothes and she seemed to observe Aileen and her best friend Elisa. One day professor Burbage talked to the girls, she wanted to know lots about them, which Aileen and Elisa thought was rather strange. Afterwards, it all made sense. When she started to inform Aileen and Elisa about the magical world and Hogwarts, they thought at first that professor Burbage was crazy. When she actually performed magic in front of them, they were stunned. It was beautiful: she turned a bald tree into one with the most beautiful leaves they had ever seen. Aileen and Elisa were fascinated. And then came the question that would change their lives forever: "I would like you two to come with me to Hogwarts in the year 1945, to help me write a book about 'muggles in the future'" professor Burbage said. Aileen wondered what the hell a muggle was. Professor Burbage explained that muggles were 'non magic people', people like Aileen and Elisa. They decided to go with professor Burbage, as they were fascinated and curious about the world they were about to meet. It was exciting and 'exciting' was something they really needed in their lives. They packed their bags and several months later, they went to Hogwarts.
Aileen looked at Elisa and saw that she was just as fascinated by the castle as Aileen herself was. Aileen and Elisa were both good looking girls, although they were totally different: Aileen had dark brown, sleek hair which curled up a bit when it rained. She had beautiful baby-blue eyes and a tip-tilted nose. She was rather skinny although this was due to her diet. Aileen always wore pretty clothes which were rather classic and sometimes a bit casual. Elisa on the other hand had blonde, curly hair and dark green eyes. She always had this blush on her cheeks which made her look shy, but beautiful. She was also skinny and wore mostly pretty and casual clothes. They both were occupied with fashion. They didn't know then that the wizarding world had another kind of fashion than muggles. The boat stopped at the castle and Aileen and Elisa got out. First they were brought to their rooms, which were in the dungeons close to the Slytherin common room. The rooms were beautiful. As Aileen was unpacking she felt odd, she had mixed feelings: she felt a bit stress, because she didn't know much about the magical world. Of course they were allowed to follow the classes, so they'd learn more about it. She also felt the magic of the castle: it made her feel romantic and it was like she lived in a fairytale. After this they went to the great hall to have their dinner. "I hope they are all too busy eating so they don't notice us, I don't want all eyes on us when we enter the hall" Aileen said. "I hope so too, I hope they're nice people." Elisa replied.
When they entered the impressive great hall they saw five tables: the main table, which was reserved for the teachers and headmaster, and the other four tables: one for Gryffindor, one for Hufflepuff, one for Ravenclaw and one for Slytherin, As Aileen remembered correctly, the Slytherins were most hostile towards muggles, so they chose the Ravenclaw table, which was closest to them. All eyes were pointed at Aileen and Elisa and they both felt embarrassed and sat down as quickly as possible. They sat near a Chinese girl with sleek black hair and black eyes. "Hi, I'm Kim Chang" she said "Who are you? You are quite late." Elisa answered: "I'm Elisa and this is Aileen, we are here to help professor Burbage write her book" "Oh, you are the muggles! There has been a lot of talking about you. Personally I think it is good to make friends with muggles, we should all get along" Kim said. "I'm glad you see it like that, I'm under the impression that others" Aileen looked at the Slytherin table "are not so kind" "Yeah" Kim said, "Don't worry about them, they have problems with like everyone who isn't a Slytherin." They talked to Kim during the whole meal and Aileen really liked her. She was very kind and some of Aileen's stomach ache went away.
When dinner was over, it was time to go to bed. On their way to their dormitories they saw a lot of Slytherins. They were all whispering and looking at Aileen and Elisa as if they were trash. "This is going to be difficult" Aileen said "I hope they will change their minds about us soon" "I won't get my hopes up if I were you" a voice said. It came from a Slytherin guy who was tall and fat and had greasy hair. "We will never make friends with people like you" he said, with the disgust dripping in the words 'friends' and 'you'. "I hope you don't think we actually care about that, we're rising way above you!" Aileen said, she felt so much anger boiling up in her but on the outside, she stayed calm. "Come Aileen, let's go to bed" Elisa said, she was scared that the Slytherin guy would get angry and curse them or something They turned their backs at the guy and heard another voice behind them: "Crabbe! There's no need to talk to those filthy muggles, they'll get theirs soon enough!" It was an authoritative voice, but also quite sexy and it actually sounded like a Gods' voice, Aileen thought and immediately she felt bad about thinking a Slytherin guy would have a sexy voice. "Goodnight Aileen" Elisa interrupted Aileen's thoughts, which was probably a good thing. "Goodnight Elisa" They hugged and both went to bed. Aileen couldn't help but wondering whose voice it was she heard once she had turned her back at the Slytherin guy called Crabbe. She'd probably find out soon enough. Before she finally went to sleep she couldn't help but thinking: "What am I doing here?"
