Chapter 7
Francis sighed, and lent her chin on her palm. She rolled her eyes as the students at the Ravenclaw table cheered for their new, rather chubby, student. Francis sat up, and yawned. She heard Draco's stomach rumble and grinned, 'don't worry, food now boy!' she patted his head, as he showed her his middle finger.
Dumbledore stood up and waited for silence. As soon as he looked around the children stopped talking. 'This is quite an unorthodox move to make but there will be a new student joining us this year.' He paused as students looked around for this newcomer. 'After you Professor McGonagall!' He indicated to her to carry on.
'Wall, Nicholas' a boy, about Francis's age lumbered forwards. He had dark hair, cropped near his head. His bright blue eyes looked around at all the people. He saw Francis and smiled at her, she narrowed her eyes, she had to wait and see what house he was in first.
The hat was placed on his head, and it covered his eyes. Francis turned away and Draco said, 'He looks like a Ravenclaw!' Francis turned her head to his, and replied, 'You think?' Draco smirked.
They sat in silence for a minute or two, as did the rest of the people. But unlike all the others Francis didn't watch the boy she watched Potter, Weasley and Granger. She would have carried on when suddenly the sorting hat yelled, 'SLYTHERIN!' Francis smirked at Draco as they both clapped, 'Ravenclaw hey?'
After the table had been hushed and Nicholas Wall had taken his seat Dumbledore continued. 'Now then, A New Year means new prefects!' he smiled, and closed his eyes. As he did this many small pops were heard around the great hall. Francis looked around and saw small badges appearing on people's robes. She smiled when a small green badge appeared on her own robes.
She read the word 'Prefect' on the front and she looked up at Draco, 'I'm a prefect Draco!' she nearly screamed as he enveloped her in a hug and whispered in her ear, 'You deserve it!'
The three words he had just said to her meant a lot. He knew what her parents were like, what they would have said to her on finding out she wasn't head girl. She looked up when she heard someone say 'Congratulations' She smiled at the newest Slytherin student, 'Thanks!'
When the excited hugs had all been broken off Dumbledore continued, 'As you all may know, we are in need of a new head boy and girl' he paused to smile around at his students, and the baffled faces of the Gryffindor table as to why Hermione wasn't a prefect. 'So could I introduce to you our new head students, Miss Hermione Granger and Mr Draco Malfoy''. The two students stood up as their badges appeared.
Francis glared at Granger. God she hated her so much. Just as she was going to give into her urge (A/N: Sp?) to throw her fork at her head Dumbledore said 'Now, lets eat!' and he clapped his hands as all the plates of food appeared.
