Disclaimer: Aurora is mine, Star is CrystalStarGuardian's, and all else is
J.K.R.'s. No matter how much I wish, I do not own Draco ::sigh::.
A/N: Oh come on, *someone* must know where I got the Slytherin password from! Honestly. In case you missed it, the password is 'elessar'. Now somebody reading this has got to know what it means. Tell ya what; first person to get it gets to decide what I put in the next chapter of this fic! I want the source (movie/book/whatever) and what it is in the source (place/name/etc.). Okee dokee? Thanks to all my reviewers, who will be duly thanked and addressed in my first chapter of author's notes. Until then, I'll stop babbling and write chapter 4!

"Oomph!"
"Nice to see you're alive."
"What the hell was that for Pellerin?"
The dark-haired girl glared at the smirking blond standing in front of her and rubbed her back.
"Funny, I don't remember any requests to be crippled this morning."
"You should be grateful I'm waking you up. Though it's really more for my own amusement that out of the goodness of my heart. Parkinson is even worse in the mornings so this will be interesting."
"Bitch."
"Thank you."
Aurora flipped her hair over her shoulder as she got up and put on her robes, muttering something about 'damn morning people with no respect for jet-lagged housemates'.
"Be thankful I didn't leave you there to sleep all day."
The only response Star got was an icy look sent from behind the other girl's shoulder.

After they had made it to breakfast, with much grumbling on Aurora's part about how the day started too damn early, Dumbledore stood up to make an announcement.
"Well, now that it appears that everyone is here, I have an announcement I would like to make. I trust you all had a pleasant first night back, and would like all of you to give a warm Hogwarts welcome to Miss Aurora Martinez, who has recently transferred here from Coronados Academy in Spain and has joined the Slytherin fifth years. I trust you will all make her feel at home. Also from Coronados is Professor Delnoche, your new Defense Against Dark Arts professor. That will be all, enjoy your first full day at Hogwarts."
The announcements were greeted by polite applause.
"Oh shit" muttered Aurora.
"What?" Draco and Star turned to look at her curiously.
"I didn't know that Professor Delnoche was going to be teaching here."
"What's so bad about that?"
Aurora suddenly seemed much more awake.
"I *hate* him. Absolutely, completely, and utterly despise the man."
"In that case, you should be happy. Our Defense Against Dark Arts professors *always* have something horrible happen to them after a year. It's practically a rule."
The intense hatred in the Spanish girl's voice was startling, even for the Slytherins, as she replied with narrowed eyes.
"Good."
Her glaring toward the staff table was interrupted as the a swarm of owls came flying in and dropped the student's schedules in front of them, along with the mail for that day.
"Oh look, we don't have our first class until 10:30. Double Potions with Gryffindor. This should be fun."
Star's expression was decidedly evil.
"Almost hate to make them lose points the first day."
Aurora looked at Star's smirk and the glint in her gray eyes.
"I'd say that 'almost' is the key word there."
Draco averted his eyes from a certain green-eyed someone sitting across the hall when Aurora jammed her elbow into his ribs and hissed at him.
"Make it a little more obvious why don't you? You're supposed to be *my* boyfriend for the time being, unfortunately. It wouldn't do much for your chances with Potter if you give the impression of being a lousy boyfriend."
"She's right Draco. I don't think your late-night lust object goes for the unfaithful type," chimed in Star.
Draco shot the two a look that could curdle milk, while they just smirked.
"Why would I be staring at *Potter*. Have you two lost your minds completely? Besides, *you* seem to be looking at a green-eyed student as well, and I doubt Blaise would like that in a girlfriend."
His only response was a look that reminded him of the angry cat that had been staring him down the previous night. This year was going to be interesting indeed, living up to one of the only accurate predictions Harry would ever make.
