I couldn't believe that Draco had said that. I thought I had found a friend, obviously not. In the safety of my dorm, I cried into my pillow unsure what to do. As I cried, the sound of someone clearing their throat could be easily heard. I quickly died my tears, and looked up to see a pug looking girl with black hair standing over me.
"Is the little princess done crying like a baby?" the girl sneered.
"What's it to you, Parkinson?" I sneered back glaring with my bloodshot eyes.
"A little birdie told me you may not be who you say you are."
"Oh, is ikkle Draco telling everyone about the letter he got from mummy?" I asked mockingly even though inside I was hurting.
Parkinson just glared at me as I smiled sweetly. She stormed out of the dorm, and I went to sleep.
The next morning, I went straight to Father's quarters before breakfast to tell him about what happened last night. Father said he would have a talk with Malfoy, and I skipped off to breakfast. As I was nearing the Great Hall, an explosion sounded behind me along with the sound of two people laughing ahead of me in the broom closet. I slowly stalked over to the closet and opened the door. Inside the closet were two identical boys with flaming red hair and mischievous grins plastered on their faces.
"Who are you?" I asked the pair.
"You don't know us!?" they asked shocked.
"Not that I can remember," I replied although I had a sneaking suspicion that I knew who they were.
The boy closest to me smiled and pointed to the other one, "That's Fred."
The other boy laughed and added, "And he's my brother George."
"Oh, the Weasley twins. Father has mentioned you many times."
"Oh has he? And who might your father be?" Fred asked.
"Professor Snape."
Both boys looked scared at the mention of Father. Well they should be, Father is very strict. Very strict indeed, "You won't tell him about our little explosion, will you?"
"No, I think your pranks are cool. Dad's always complaining about you two when he's home, but I think it's so cool that you have figured out how to do all the jokes you do."
"Well then, we'll just have to add you in on our pranks, honorary Weasley," they chimed together.
I smiled, this was going to be fun.
The three of us left the closet and finished my trip to the Great Hall for breakfast. I said goodbye to my newfound friends before rushing off to the Slytherin table. Father would never approve with me hanging around those two, but right now, I didn't care.
