Author's note: wow. I'm actually getting reviewed! Thanks so much to all of you, this chapter is for everyone!

Millicent Bulstrode, Slytherin

            The common room was empty when I came down the stairs the following morning. Normally, people would have been sitting on the couches and having conversations about how they were going to trick the new Hufflepuffs or cheat off the Ravenclaws and get away with it. But the talks were mostly about how much they hated all things Gryffindor, muggles, and anything that involved Dumbledore's planning. The windows were covered in thick green curtains, so I moved them aside. It was a misty morning about five o'clock I guessed. Someone had set my alarm an hour early. And I decided it was Pansy. I was thinking about going to the library to get some extra studying in, but then I realized that it didn't open until seven. So I sat on the couch and started to look through my new books, memorizing odd little facts. Then the person I did not want to see entered the room.

            "Fancy seeing you down here this early." He said. I turned myself the opposite direction on the black leather and didn't answer him. "Oh come on Mils. I'm sorry for being rude to you last night. I really shouldn't have questioned you about that. If I know you well enough, I think you are too smart of a person to be doing that to yourself. Maybe you really weren't hungry. " He ran a hand through his dark brown hair.

            "Blaise...I'm sorry for acting like a snob. But I really don't think that you should intrude on my personal life like that. Alright?"

            "Yes. Can we be friends again?" I got off the couch and hugged him. He smelled really nice. Like a spring morning when the rain has just fallen. Fresh is the word I guess.

He let go just as we heard a door creak. It was Pansy.

            "Are you trying to steal my new boyfriend too, Millicent?" I brushed a blonde curl out of my face.

            "No, it was just a platonic hug."

            "Really?" She asked while raising an eyebrow at Blaise, and descending the staircase. "It looked like more than that to me…"

            "We weren't doing anything, I swear." He looked at her with completely honest blue eyes. Come to think of it…Blaise was cute. No…actually Blaise was hot. I guess I hadn't noticed it before. Pansy glared at me, took Blaise by the arm, and led him off into the second room.

Thanks to all of my reviewers:

Here is a teaser of the next chapter:

            "Today, you will be learning about the properties of a potion used for medicinal purposes. But instead of me telling you what it is, you and you partner will be experimenting with your finished product and testing it on these samples of infected skin." I cringed. "Here is your set of ingredients and the directions. You should be done within the half hour and then begin testing it for the rest of class. Also, Mr. Potter and Mr. Weasley…please come with me into the hall after you have finished making asses of yourselves." Lavender Brown and Parvati Patil gasped at the use of Snape's language, while Pansy threw her head back with laughter to get Draco's attention. He didn't even look at her. While we began to work, (hastily chopping up roots and mashing up wings)

Neville Longbottom's cauldron began to overflow…
