Mailys sat down near the black lake. The sorting ceremony and the first meal went exactly as expected, nothing usual. Except for the fact that only the people she kept in contact with over the summer are the only ones who recognized her. She took in the salty air of the lake and closed her eyes. She almost drifted off into sleep when she suddenly heard that annoying, high-pitched. "Hey you, I've never seen you around. I'm Niko Fletcher."
It was her former bully. Even he didn't recognized the face he had made fun of for years now. She was quite enjoying this, So she decided to toy around with him. "I know who you are. I'm Georgina Stevens, nice to meet you." She said as she got up and faced him. "Well, I don't know how I've been over looking you all those years. Probably because you're a Hufflepuff. But it's good that you know who I am." At this point frowned and had the thought of using one of the unforgivable curses on him.
"Anyway, I'll see you around." He said as he smirked, turned around and walked away.
She didn't know what was weirder, him leaving without shouting any kind of insult at her or just seeing him without his goons.
She looked at the ink-black night sky and realized she should probably go back to Hogwarts. Once she reached the barrels, she tapped the barrel that was two from the bottom, the middle of the second row in the rhythm of Helga Hufflepuff and soon made her way to the corridor.
She greeted her fellow Hufflepuff's before making it to her own bedroom... well, she shared it with a couple of other girls, but they are only found in there from twelve to seven. So it was basically like she had the room to herself. She took of her robes and laid down on her bed. It wasn't long before she fell asleep.
As I already told all of you before. I'm not writing this story on my own. I'm writing it with my best friend, Bxanie.
So you can see how the year proceeds from both a Gryffindor's view and mine will be from the Hufflepuff's POV.
She also wrote how her first day at Hogwarts went, so to read it just scroll down a bit more.
Of course she didn't stand out. She was only 5'6 tall, had a bust size that could be that of twelve year old's and she generally didn't act like a freak. Well she hoped she didn't stand out atleast. Of course she was wrong.
"Hey Candy, heard your mother's been going around collecting muggles again!"
"Does she keep them as collector's items?"
The rumors wouldn't shut up. They even followed her into the common room. Candy held her head high, not even slightly scared of the nasty glances or the insults thrown at her. Blonde hair, sapphire blue eyes and the brightest smile of the whole school. As the years went by at Hogwarts, people generally started to grow fond of her.
Now here she was in her sixth year. The year of course started out as usual, opening in the great hall, some speech and then the first week of studying began. Everything seemed okay. Everything seemed like it would be fine.
"Hey Candy, when are you going to tell us how many muggles you picked up with your mother?"
She was forced off a bench in the courtyard and onto the hard, stone pavement. She crawled back, reaching for her wand but she knew she couldn't use it here and they knew she didn't want any trouble. The energetic girl that ate way too much cake wouldn't do anything after all, would she?
"Keep your hands off my sister!"
Said a loud voice followed by a boy with dark hair and red, scarlet eyes, delivering a punch to the closest Slytherin. The boy would be known as Sam Hades. Yet more known as demon eyes.
"If you want someone to talk about then talk about me and that amazing punch I just delivered to your face. Me and my twin don't need magic to beat your ass!"
He said with the widest grin. He took Candy's pale, thin arm and pulled her up to her feet before dusting off her red robes. The three boys scurried off quickly. Not by Sam though but by a professor approaching from the distance. Of course she had witnessed everything.
"Sam, Candy, in my office, this instance."
The Ravenclaw and the Gryffindor exchanged looks before following their professor. Oh they had done it again.
