Celeste
I sighed as I walked through Diagon Alley. I had been in London for a mere two months and was just getting used to the weather. I guess I wasn't paying attention to where I was going because I bumped into something, or rather someone. I looked up and saw a boy with blonde hair and gray eyes. I quickly picked up my books, offered an apology, and scampered off. The last thing I wanted was a confrontation from some strange kid. "Hey, come back here!" the boy yelled.
I turned around and walked back over to the boy. "What?" I interrogated.
" You forgot to pick up my books," he told me as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
I just shook my head in disbelief; this kid was most definitely spoiled." What am I, a slave?" I questioned.
I absolutely can't stand people who make other people pick up their stuff. I picked up the books anyway and slammed them into his chest. " What's your name? I'm transferring from California School of Magic to Hogwarts and I want to know your name in case you are a student there," I told him cheekily.
" I'm Draco Malfoy and that hurt," he griped.
I felt my heart skip a beat but not because I knew that I had hurt him. He could've broke his ankle for all I care and anyway I didn't slam the books into his chest that hard! This kid had the same last name as me! For all I knew he could be my brother or cousin. "SORRY! I'm Celeste Malfoy by the way," I told him. " Do you think we could be related?"
I blurted the last part out before I could stop myself. Now I was going to come off as some unstable kid who thought everyone with the same last name as her was kindred to her. " NO! Since you've lived in California your whole life, I doubt it. The only way we could be is if your dad is related to mine." Draco told me.
He reacted just as I suspected and it caused me to have butterflies in my stomach. I then decided to point out to him that I had no idea if my dad was related to his. " I live with my Aunt," I informed him, "I've never even met my parents."
I really hoped that by telling him that he would consider the possibility. " Oh well, hope you find them. I still don't think we're related!" he told me without any sympathy at all.
Draco was getting brattier by the minute. The least he could've done was look into it and see if he had a sister or cousin that he didn't know about. " You just don't want us to be!" I half screamed.
I then took a deep breath and heard Draco retort," Yeah, your snooty!"
"Well you're nothing but an insolent child!" I yelled back.
I then stalked off, I sure hoped we weren't related. I mean his parents much teach him to be as rude as he can be.

Callie
I was in my room reading a book, when Harry came in. "Hey, Cal I'm going to Diagon Alley. Want to come?" he asked.
"Sure," I told him as I put my book away.
It would give me a chance to meet some local kids. I might even get a chance to meet someone besides Harry and Celeste who was going to Hogwarts.
We then went downstairs and got some of Sirius' floo powder. "Wow!" I gasped as I opened my eyes and saw Diagon Alley.
Diagon Alley had about five times more shops than the place where Californian wizard got their school supplies. I then looked down at my school list to see what I needed to get. Just then, a boy and a girl walked up to us. The boy had red hair and the girl had long brown hair. " Hey, Who are you? I'm Hermione Granger by the way," the girl said looking at me.
" Callie Black, My mom decided to move here and live with her brother, Sirius."
" Well, its nice to meet you. This is Ron by the way," she informed me.
Ron gave her a look that said 'I could have told her that.' " It's nice to meet you both. So what's Hogwarts like?" I asked.
I was trying to break the silence. They then launched into a vivid account of what Hogwarts was like while we went school shopping.
I think they told just about everything from what the teachers were like to what you could do. We had just finished getting our books when I saw a familiar person. " Celeste!" I yelled.
She turned around and walked over to me. "Hey, Callie! Who are you with?" Celeste inquired.
" This is Harry, Ron, and Hermione. I'm living with Harry and his godfather and these are his friends," I told Celeste as I pointed to each of them.
Celeste nodded and then said, " I'm Celeste Malfoy and Callie and I are best friends from California. My aunt moved me here 'cause of a job transfer."
Harry and his friends looked shocked and I wondered if they didn't believe her story or what.
"Are you related to Draco Malfoy?" Ron blurted out.
