A/N: Thank you to OurLoveIsForever and NJsparty for the sweet reviews and story alerts!! Oh and I know it's cliché, but McGonagall is Head Mistress. Just thought I would let you know, so you wouldn't be confused later.

She took the hat off as quickly as she had put it on; her verdict had been Gryffindor, just like her older brothers, and Syria Malfoy made her way to the Gryffindor table. She sat next to John, the boy she met on the train. After dinner, everyone was released to go their dormitories, and the fifth year prefect led the first years to the dormitories. There was only one other girl who was sorted into Gryffindor, but she didn't seem to like Syria much, especially since Syria introduced herself as a Malfoy. But she had expected that, despite the fact that her brothers and father didn't warn her about it beforehand. Both Scorpius and Sebastian were given a talk before coming to Hogwarts. But she didn't, she always a bit spoiled by her father and her brothers. Not spoiled rotten, but she was a Daddy's girl, and her brothers' worlds.

She sat in her room, and took out two pieces of parchement. One for Daddy, and one for Scorp, she thought. Her snob of a roommate had already gone to sleep, and she didn't want to be rude, so she went to the Common Room. As she finished the letters, she went to the Owlery, because her owl, Piko, was there. Coming out, she ran into something or someone, rather.

"I'm so sorry, I wasn't looki-oh, it's just you, Sebby."

"Yeah, I went to the Common Room, but you weren't there. Then I left, and I saw you in the distance and I figured you were coming here to post your letters for Dad and Scorpius, right?"

"Mmmmhhhmmm." Syria nodded. She took her hand in her brother's larger one, and began to walk with him in a comfortable silence. Suddenly, she felt very tired, and in the most innocent voice asked,

"Sebby, can I ask you for something?"

He already knew what she wanted, she loved the piggy-back rides he gave her. Sebastian knelt down, his back facing her, and she climbed on.

"How did you know I wanted a piggy-back ride?" Syria asked, stifling a yawn in the process.

"I'm your older brother, princess. It's my job to know these things. But mine are better than Scorp's, right?"

She giggled, and laid her head on his shoulder, fastening her arms around his neck, with both of her legs through either of Sebastian's arms. . Sebastian kept on talking, showing her various things on their way back to the Gryffindor Common Room. He really didn't want her to sleep alone for the first few nights. Kids could really be cruel, he thought, as Syria talked about her only roommate.

"Well, if anyone, no matter who they are, says anything, does anything, or makes you feel bad in any which way, you let me know, okay? Your older brother is here for you."

He would be there for Syria, just how Scorp had been there for him.

"Syria, you listening to me?"

He heard her steady breathing and realized she was asleep. He decided to take a shortcut to the Common Room. He said the password, and then muttered the spell Scorpius had taught him in third year, enabling him to get into the Girls' Dormitories. He went to where the first years' dorms were, and opened the door. Gently placing his sister on the bed, he tried to leave, but realized the sleeve of his robe was stuck. Syria was tightly clutching it, and sleepily asked,

"Can you stay with me, Seb?"

He decided to lie down with her for a while. He took off his robe and shoes, and unbuttoned his shirt. He hadn't even realized how tired he had been, until he drifted off to sleep himself.

Where the in the world was he? He was supposed to meet her in their dorm hours ago. But then again, he didn't know the password since he had skipped the meeting, right after the Sorting. She had been considerably nice about it, when he disappeared after the Sorting, skipping the brief yet important meeting they had with Professor McGonagall. Especially since he hadn't told her. Even then, she covered his arse, saying that he went to check on some first years. It was time for their patrol, and being the duty-driven girl she was, Lily decided to go on patrol alone. She would deal with Malfoy when she came back.

After her patrol, Lily decided to stop by the Gryffindor Common Room, to wish Hugo good night. After all, it was only those two left at Hogwarts when it came to Weasley grandchildren. She walked into the Common Room, and she saw Malfoy descending down the girls' dormitories' stairs. His blonde hair disheveled, his eyes slightly red, and his shirt and robes in his hand. Judging from his appearance, it was obvious he had just woken up, Lily thought. He was probably shagging someone on the first day, Lily scoffed inwardly. She also tried to ignore the blush that graced her cheeks as she gave him a once over. It wasn't her bloody fault he was so damn good-looking. Her mother and Aunt Hermione had once described Draco as someone with dangerously good looks. There was no doubt his sons were the same. The platinum blonde hair, the gray eyes, the defined stomach, broad chest, strong shoulders, and overall aura was something few women could resist. But she had no problems as she felt the anger that usually surfaced whenever he was around her consume her.

"Where the bloody hell have you been, Malfoy? I waited two whole hours for you!! Two whole hours!! You skipped the meeting with McGonagall and I covered your silly arse there, thinking perhaps you were with Hugo, and you would meet me later. But no, your hair is all messed up, your clothes in your hand implying that they were obviously off, and your eyes are red. And on top of it all, you come down from the girls' dormitories. The GIRLS' DORIMITORIES!! As Head Boy, you need to set an example for the kids, not go around shagging people on the first day as it is…"

And she went on and on, and Sebastian would have turned around and insulted her back, but he was too exhausted. He closed his eyes in hopes that she would go away, but to no avail. Her irate rambling suddenly came to halt. He wondered what could have caused Potter to finally shut up when heard his sister's voice,

"Please don't get mad at Sebby. He really was with me, and only because I made him promise. I'm sorry he missed the meeting and everything else. Please don't yell at him though," and she walked across the room to hold his hand and continued, "He's really tired. He gave me a piggy back ride. He was late because of me and I'm sorry. Oh and I'm Syria Malfoy."

Lily's heart immediately melted. Scorpius and Albus had been right, it impossible not to fall in love with her at first sight. She didn't have the gray eyes her brothers did, hers were a bright blue, from her mother perhaps? She did have the typical platinum hair though, like her brothers. The little girl looked at Lily expectantly. Lily sighed.

"I'm sorry. I thought he was just…never mind, that's irrelevant. But I'm glad he was with you, Syria. It's really late, and you should go to bed."

"Can Sebby stay with me? Please?"

Malfoy cut in before Lily could answer.

"Syria, you don't need anyone's permission for that. No matter what anyone says." He said, giving Lily a glare.

Lily nodded in confirmation. It had been enough, and Malfoy was already furious. He hadn't said anything, but his body stiffened whenever he was angry. It was only something she noticed, not that she looked at him whenever she got a chance. It was a mere…observation. The only person that ever really experienced his anger was Lily. Rose had dubbed him a quiet, thoughtful soul. Lily scoffed when Rose had told her that. Obnoxious, insufferable, arrogant, pig was more like it. But she wouldn't tell Rose that, because she had always regarded Malfoy like a younger brother, even before she and Scorpius started dating, since Malfoy and Hugo had been best friends since first year. Realizing how tired she was, she decided to head over to her own dorm.

A/N: Sorry, it's a little short, but I wanted to make the next day a different chapter, or else it would have been too long, I feel. Also, once I get a chance to write at least three or four chapters, I will update on a regular basis, like on a certain day of the week, but for right now, updates may be slightly sporadic and I apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you for reading!! Please leave a review, and let me know how I am doingJ To be honest, I don't particular like this chapter much, but it's a necessary filler, since I had to introduce Lily and Syria to each other, and of course, it's incomplete without a fight between Lily and Seb. The next chapter will be better, because I will establish how their relationship (or lack thereof) came to be like this. Reviews =LOVE!!
