After dinner, I saw Rose leading the first years in her house, which happened to be Gryffindor, towards the door. I didn't want to look to new so I decided I would follow behind some other Slytherin's who, I could only hope, were headed towards the common room. Our common room was supposed to be a place for hanging out and relaxing after we got done with school. Each house has one. I probably wouldn't be spending a lot of time in there. From all the glares I got while at dinner, I most definitely won't be welcome.

Before I could get through the door, a Professor stopped me.

"Hello, Juliette. I'm Professor McGonagall, the headmaster here at Hogwarts." A tall, thin woman with her hair pulled back and a severe look on her face.

"Hi" I mumble almost incoherently.

"How about we go somewhere quieter where we can talk?" She suggests.

I nod my assent and she leads us out of the Great Hall and down a corridor. She walks briskly to the nearest empty classroom.

"That's better. Anyways, I'm glad you've joined us at Hogwarts, Juliette. I hope you will find it to your liking."

"It's beautiful" I say automatically.

"Yes, Hogwarts has always been a beautiful castle. Alas, not many people appreciate the beauty much anymore" she says. "Anyways, on to a more important matter, as you are a new student to Hogwarts and you are older, you will be put into classes with the students your age, which I'm sure will be good for you. You will be sleeping with the other fifth year Slytherin girls in the dormitories. You will receive your schedule tomorrow at breakfast like the rest of the students. Does that sound alright?"

I nod in agreement.

"Alright. I will walk you to your common room and tell you about the rules and order of Hogwarts."

Once I got to the common room, all the Slytherin's were relaxing by the fires and resting in the armchairs. I started walking towards the stairwell that Professor McGonagall told me would lead to the dormitories.

"Hey, Kesseler!" Someone shouts towards me.

I turn around and look towards the voice. It's a brawny boy with blond hair and thick arms.

"Uh, yes?" I answer.

He walks towards me as I wait expectantly for him to tell me why he called my name.

"Aren't you a Mud Blood? You shouldn't be in Slytherin. We are all Pure Blood and you're not."

"Well, I'm sorry, why don't you go take this up with the Sorting Hat, he is the one that put me in this House." I tell him.

Him and his buddies who he was sitting with start chuckling. "Is something funny?" I ask.

"'Is something funny?' Yeah, Kessler. You. You don't belong here. Do you even belong anywhere?" He asks me. He started laughing again.

"Well obviously I don't belong in this House. This house seems to be made up of stupid, ugly people. And I sure as hell know I'm not stupid, or ugly for that matter," I retort.

Him and his friends gaze stupidly towards me as if surprised I actually have a brain to come up with comebacks.

With one last glance around the common room I head up the stairwell and towards the dormitory.

Once I arrive in the room, I see six beds all in a row. I assume the last bed on the right is mine because my trunk and my precious kitten in her basket are surrounding the bed.

Then I notice the several pairs of eyes glance at me. Three of the girls face's look hateful, while the other two show hesitant glances.

I walk towards my bed, and take my kitten out of her basket. I sit and wait for the murmuring to start about me. But none comes. The five girls stay silent, till I hear footsteps coming towards me. I look up and see one of the girls who was giving me a hesitant glance.

"Uh, h-hi. I-I'm Victoria. Y-You're Juliette K-Kessler right?" She stutters out.

"Yes" I say politely.

"C-cool" is her reply.

"There is no need to stutter, I don't bite." I said.

She gives me a glance, and her face breaks into a smile. She then walks away and the conversations begin again.

I start to pet Bella, and think about how life will be here at Hogwarts; I can only hope I won't be an outcast like everywhere else.

I finally finished! I had so much homework this week, it was crazy! I hope you like this chapter. Next chapter, Scorpius will make his appearance so look out! Please R&R anything is good, I need some motivation to continue this story!
