Chapter One: Blue Haze
In order for you to really understand what happened, I have to take you back a few years. I suppose it started in my first year of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Perhaps you already know the story of the 'boy who lived', so I won't waste time explaining that. Yes, I too, was a witch. I had seen him for the first time at school...
"Harry Potter!" Professor McGonagall had called Harry to sit under that dreadful sorting hat. It was dirty and dusty. It looked as if it had been used for the same purpose decades before. I wasn't watching the famous Harry Potter, however. I felt my knees growing weak as I stood on my toes to see over the hoarde of new students in the Great Hall, like myself. I tried to stay up, but I had stumbled backwards.
"Oh! I'm sorry!" I said as I clumsily thrashed into a brunette standing behind me.
"Its alright. Hey, are you okay?" She asked with a kind smile plastered on her face.
"Oh, yeah. Are you? I'm really sorry, its just -" I stopped myself. "I'm Krystal, by the way. Krystal Montague." I said, sticking out my hand in hopes of quickly changing the subject.
"Roxeanne Keinath." She said, keeping her cheery smile on. She was quite polite, not to mention beautiful. She had short, dark, curly brown hair and was about 5"2' in height. She had brilliant bluish eyes and a few freckles scattered on her face. She was the perfect weight as well. She was wearing dark makeup that only brought out her wonderful features. I wouldn't have been suprised if she had more than one boy trying to get a date with her at the time. "I'm hoping to get into Gryffindor." She told me. "Look who else is there." She pointed towards the Gryffindor table. He was just sitting down. He had messy, dark hair and round glasses. "Isn't he gorgeous?! I just have to meet him!"
I recognized the boy as Harry Potter. He was quite adorable. Realizing this, I snapped around looking for the incredible boy I had seen before. I found him in the crowd. How could I miss him? He had slicked back blonde hair and was simply gorgeous. He turned back to look at one of his friends and I caught a glimpse of his face. He had beautiful blue shimmering eyes that I just couldn't take my own off of. I sighed deeply and Roxeanne must have realized I was staring at some one.
"Who are you looking at?" She asked. My face turned bright red and I turned away, trying to hide within my own robe. "Oh, come on now! I know you were looking at somebody!" She looked around as to see who I would be looking at. "Oh, just tell me!" She begged.
I took a while before saying anything. I was thinking about the pair of eyes I had just seen. They were amazing and bright. You wouldn't have been able to miss them in a crowd of a thousand.
"Roxeanne?" I nudged her. "Who is that?" I asked, nodding towards the boy. I looked back at her and watched as her eyes widened when they fell upon him.
"Him?!" She asked, almost sneering. She seemed very suprised.
I let out a sigh again. "Yes, him! Don't you see him? He's..." I couldn't get the words out fast enough and Roxeanne stopped me from saying any more.
"He's horrible!" I stared at her in disbelief. My mouth must have been open as well because when she looked at me, she chuckled and raised her hand to push my jaw up. Before either of us could say another word, Roxeanne was called up to the sorting hat. She looked at me for a moment and made a face that said: Oh, shit! Its my turn!
"Good luck!" I whispered and turned back to admire the boy. I looked around for him, but he wasn't there! I was practically jumping to see over the crowd just so I could see his wonderful eyes. If only I could see his glamourous blue eyes once again, I'd be happy. After a few minutes of bouncing around, while trying not to make a scene, I gave up. He probably noticed I was looking at him, I thought.
I turned back around to look up at Roxeanne when I saw two blue eyes. I made a loud noise, although I think it was a gasp. "You!" I breathed. I saw him tilt his head a bit and give somewhat of a smile.
"You know me, then?" He asked. I didn't know exactly what to say. I only shook my head. "Well, now you do." He smirked. "I'm Draco Malfoy... son of Lucius Malfoy. Perhaps you've heard of him." He spoke in a witty voice. His smile finally showed. Ahh, bliss. I wanted to wrap my arms around him right then and there. To my suprise, however, he held out his hand. "Well? Aren't you going to tell me your's?"
I stammered for a moment and took his hand. "K-Krystal." I whispered. I cleared my throat and spoke again. "Krystal Montague." I watched as he took my hand and raised it to his face, where he gave it a kiss. I almost died right there on the spot. I felt so foolish, standing there with a wide smile on my face as he put my hand back.
"Hope to see you in the same house as me." He finally said as he was called to the sorting hat. Before the hat even got fully down to his head, it shouted that he was in Slytherin. I looked over to Roxeanne, who had been placed in Gryffindor as she wished. She was happily giggling with a bunch of red haired boys and playfully flirting with Harry.
"Krystal Montague?" Professor McGonagall finally called me up to the hat. I stood there for a moment, looking at Draco. All I could do was smile as he winked at me. I was shaking with excitement. I slowly made my way towards the old hat. I sat down on the stool that was prepared. I deeply wanted to be placed in Slytherin so I could be with Draco. Then again, I turned to Roxeanne. She was my only friend at Hogwarts and she seemed to be easily making friends in Gryffindor. The hat was placed on my head. I heard that cold voice speaking in my ear. "Well now, lets see. You have good qualities in you, I see. Gryffindor would be well for you. But what's this? A yearn to be in Slytherin? Perhaps Slytherin... yes, you would enjoy that, wouldn't you? Maybe..." But before my mind could comprehend, the hat had already shouted, "GRYFFINDOR!"
