The Slytherin common room looked a lot like the colors I had forced Uncle Tom to paint my bedroom; green and silver.

"What do you think?" Astoria asks, literally bouncing on her heels.

"it`s" I start, searching for the appropriate word "indescribable, not at all like I imagined it looking like."

"Well now it`s home" Draco adds, giving me a small, reassuring shake and smiling at me again. He seems to have gotten over my hesitating on bullying those kids.

"Let`s get you settled" Astoria cheers, taking my hand and pulling me forward and towards a door at the edge of the room "roomy!"

"Good luck!" Draco calls, laughing, from behind us as I am ushered into the girl's dormitory and to my possible doom.

"Help me!" I yell in mock distress as Astoria slamms the door.

"So," Astoria says, pointing to a large bed in the corner of the room with various clothing items laid out across the top "that's my bed and this one over here" she continues, bouncing over to another large empty bed "this is your bed!"

"Thank you" I say, taking a seat on my bed and falling back onto it. I hadn't realized how tired I was until now.

"Why don`t you rest up a bit" she says, noticing me lying back on the bed.

"Thank you" I mumble again as I shut my eyes and drift off to sleep.
