A/N: hello everyone! here we are again with chapter 3! *sigh* school is
being stressful, finals coming and everything. only 3 hours left with each
of my teachers! hurrah! i'm taking a break from the endless studying to
write this and get it out of my head and onto paper......er...... the
computer. happy reading! Oh, by the way, I'm going to do these next
chapters a little differently. I'll have a little bit about each of the
characters in the different houses, but each chapter will be centered
around one of them. Also, mild swearing at the end of the chapter!
Disclaimer: I don't own it. I praise J.K. Rowling for her amazing world of interesting characters! I'm only borrowing them for a bit. Don't sue me!
Breakfast Bedlam

"Good morning!" Maddie exclaimed as she bounced down the stairs from the girls' dorms, "When's breakfast?" Her bright smile and radiating awakeness contrasted with everyone else in the common room.
"Um, did you sleep well?" Hermione asked, a little less awake than Maddie.
"Yes, quite! I've never slept in a four-poster before! It was quite an experience." Maddie grinned.
"I'm hungry," Ron muttered grogilly and they all walked down to the great hall.

"It's still not working!" David cried, whacking his laptop with his borrowed wand, "Come on! All I want is a little cooperation! Why are machines so difficult!" He finally gave up and carefully put his ear up to his personal computer to see if he could hear it working.
"David," Cho said softly, trying to to agravate him, "I don't think it's going to work. If you like, you can ask Dumbledore or the Prefects if they know of anything you can do. Until then, lets go have breakfast." David looked up at her and nodded.
"Okay," He replied quietly, standing up slowly and looking sadly at his prized possesion. The two of them then walked down to breakfast.

"This is so different than everything I'm used to. AAAAH!" Sarah screamed as she looked at two people playing wizard chess, "What are they doing to eachother?"
"Oh!" Justin exclaimed, "I forgot! In wizard chess, the pieces move!" He looked down at the board to see the white Queen brutally dragging and abusing a black night.
"Does it have to be so graphic though?" Sarah shuddered.
"That's the fun of the game though! For now, why don't we stick with exploding snap. Let's go have breakfast, and I'll explain more to you." Justin, Ernie, and Hannah led Sarah toward the great hall while discussing wizarding games.

The Slytherin common room was pretty empty when Ben reached it.
"I must have slept in. How am I going to get to breakfast?" He asked himself aloud. He then heard footsteps hurriedly coming from the girls' dorms and Elizabeth appeared out of the darkness, slipping on shoes as she ran down the hallway.
"Ben! I would've thought you'd be down at breakfast already! Well, just follow me!" She grabbed his hand and they ran through the dungeouns up to the great hall for breakfast and they sat down at the end of the full Slytherin table. "How did you sleep? Obviously well if you slept in so long like me!" She smiled another of her beautiful, dazling smiles at him and she laughed as she drank her pumpkin juice and helped herself to pancakes."
"LIZZY!" a familiar voice yelled and the boy with blonde hair was back, standing behind Elizabeth.
"Oh, how could I have forgotten! Ben, this is Draco. Draco, Ben."
"Why are you sitting with this mudblood?"
"Draco, dear, he looked lonely! Come sit with us." She patted the bench next to her and scooted over a bit. "It would make me ever so happy."
"I will not associate with that, that, disgusting excuse for a human! I don't expect you to either!" Draco exclaimed angrilly.
"Sweetheart, calm down! Don't have a duck! I'll be over to sit with you in a moment. Just please, relax a bit. There's a good boy, run along, I'll just be a minute!" She smiled at Draco sweetly then turned back to Ben.
"Why do you let him boss you around like that?" Ben asked quietly.
"Oh," Elizabeth began, "It's not really bossing, he's just trying to protect me. I only let him because it makes him feel powerfull."
"You don't look like you need protecting." Ben replied skeptically.
"Well, frankly, I think he feels it's his duty. As my boyfriend and everything." She sighed.
"Your WHAT?" Ben cried.
"Elizabeth! Get your pureblood arse over here! It's been much more than a minute!" Draco yelled.
"Oh, I've gotta go before he has a real fit." She smiled, "I'm coming darling!" She called over to him and she sat down next to Draco and gave him a kiss on the cheek, leaving Ben alone at his end of the table.
