Chapter One- A New Student

Headmaster Dumbledore taps on his glass to get the rooms attention. The students pause on their conversations and look to the man.

"Everyone I would like to welcome miss Alexis Riedel she will be here from Germany for the school year." Dumbledore announces raising his hand to a dark haired girl sitting at the end of the Ravenclaw table alone. "I expect you all will treat her with the same respect, kindness and courtesy as you treat each other." Dumbledore sits back in chair.

From the Gryffindor table, Lily and the boys all look over to her.

"Alexis Riedel." Sirius repeats looking at her. "She's kinda cute, but looks more like Mooney's type."

"Poor girl."

"What?" asks James.

"She looks so lonely."

They all look back to her. Alexis curls a piece of her dark brown hair behind her ear, takes a sip from her goblet and continues writing. She was paying no mind to others around her and them the same.

"Maybe, but I have to agree with Padfoot that she looks more like Mooney's type."

"I don't have a type." Remus says mainly to himself.

However, Remus did think she was cute. How she sits there somewhat awkward glancing once in a while at those around her.

"How about you go say hello Mooney." Sirius teases knowing Remus would never introduce himself to a girl.

"I will. Remus come with me." Lily announces pushing her plate away from her. She and Remus walk over to the Ravenclaw table. "Hi, Lily Evans and this is one of my friends Remus Lupin."

"Halo." She says with a very faint accent.

"Hello." Remus says back.

"We thought you might want to come sit with us."

"We're allowed to do that?"

"Yeah, its fine."

Alexis taps her muggle pen on her book in decision, then stands closing the book. Lily and Remus walk with her over to the Gryffindor table. Lily takes her spot next to James, and Remus moves over one allowing Alexis to sit between him and Lily. Across from Alexis is Sirius and next to him across from James is Peter. Peter was the only one with light hair; dirty blond. Remus was a brunette, James was a dark brown and Lily's was auburn brown, and Sirius was black.

"Alexis this is James Potter, that's Peter Pettigrew, and-"

"Sirius Black." He holds his hand out to her.

Alexis goes to shake his hand but instead he kisses the top of her hand, slyly looking up at her as he lower his head to do so.

"Don't mind him. He flirts with all the girls."

"Do not. Just the ones I think are cute." Sirius smiles at her making her turn red. "You wouldn't happen to be related to a Varick Riedel would you?"

"One of my older brothers. He plays for Deushland United."

"You must be good at quittage then."

"I'm Capitan of the Gryffindor team, Seeker. What position do you play?" James asks.

"Keeper or chaser doesn't matter."

"We should play sometime. Maybe show us some of your moves if your brothers taught you any." Sirius adds, "Oh great." His tone suddenly changes.

"What?" Remus asks.

"Blondie and his greasy pet Snevillus." Sirius growls, "What do you want?"

"Just come to introduce myself to the lady." Says the tall white blond haired man; he looks down to Alexis. "Lucius Malfoy, Slytherin." He holds out his hand to her.

Alexis looks to Lucius's hand then to his eyes. She takes his hand and as suspected he gently kisses it, and as before she turns red. Lucius is tall with white blond hair stopping just before his shoulders. He was fit she could tell by the way his cloths fit his body. And a strong jaw line, nice blue-grey eyes and soft lips, like Sirius's, she could tell when they each had kissed her hand.

"And this is Severus Snape." Lucius introduces letting go of her hand; she and Severus look at each other a second.

Severus was as tall as Lucius but with black hair just below his strong law line. His eyes were either a dark brown, blue or green she couldn't tell but decided on black. He wasn't fit like Lucius but wasn't just all skin and bone, he had some muscle.

"Great. You introduced yourselves now you can leave."

Lucius glares at Sirius, James and Lily backing Sirius up. Peter seemed to just look back and forth between everyone as if confused. Remus and Severus glare at each other. Lucius looks back to Alexis.

"Alexis isn't it?" She nods a yes. "Whenever you get bored with these…people, come find me."

"Like she's interested!" Sirius and James yell in unison as the two leave to the Slytherin table.

"Whatever you do don't make friends with either of them." Sirius tells her.

"They're horrible." Peter adds.

"Stay away from them." James tells her.

"Listen to you guys! I should be warning her about you two." Lily says pointing to both James and Sirius. "Severus isn't all horrible. Sure, he has greasy looking hair but he is better than Lucius. Maybe if you didn't tease him all the time-"

"The guy came into potions with only his shorts on." Sirius begins.

"A rather funny sight considering he had no idea that's all he had on." Remus adds.

"That gives us all right to laugh and joke."

"What would you possibly have top warn Alexis about Sirius and I?" James asks receiving a look from Lily.

"Don't get me started."

"I think them two should get married." Alexis whispers to Remus making him chuckle.

"I herd that." Sirius tells her.

"What?" Lily asks.

"Nothing." The three say together.
