Chapter 2:

Slytherin bound.

Trinity was met at the Castle steps by a old man with a long snowy white beard, a cheery smile, and sparkling blue eye's behind half moon glasses. He motioned for Trinity to come over to him.

"Welcome to Hogwarts Ms.Basset. I'm proffesor. Dumbledor and I'm the headmaster here. Come with me please." Dumbledor walked through the entrance hall and then went into a class room off to the left and motioned for Trinity to sit on a small stool in the middle of the room. He then put a old hat on her head and she jumped slightly when she herd a voice in her ear.

"Very cunning, quite brave, not that bad of a mind either, but some fear in that as well... Ok then... Slytherin!!!!!" The hat said and then Dumbledor took the hat off her head.

"Very well. Slytherin it is then. Take these and go change Ms. Basset. I'll have the Head Boy meet you outside the girl's lavatory." He said handing Trinity her house robes.

"Thank you proffesor." Trinity said takeing them and walking out of the class room to the nearest bathroom. She quickly took off her clothes and pulled on the white shirt, silver and green tie, the black skirt, and robes with the Slytherin emblem embroidered on it. She folded up her other clothes and shoved them in her small bag she always carried with her and walked out into the hall.

"Well, well, well. We meet again Trinity." Came the silky smooth voice of Draco off to the side of the door. Trinity turned on her heel and smirked at him.

"Well what do you know! We are in the same house Draco how wonderfull. And here I was thinking I wouldn't see you again until detintion." Trinity let the words flow out as sarcasticly as possible.

"I'm just here to show you around the school Trinity." Draco said smoothly.

"What no more 'filthy mudblood' bull?" Trinity asked smileing as wikidly as possible.

"Were in the same house Trinity I have to be nice to you unless you get on my nerves anymore. And as soon as we are done going around the school your detintion starts." Draco said and began leading her around the school. Trinity found everything rather fascinating. But then Draco made a snide comment towards muggles so Trinity turned and smacked him so hard she left a hand print on the side of his face. Draco was startled for a moment then shoved Trinity against the wall the stones behind her dug into her back. He held her wrists hard against the wall.

"I told you I don't have to be nice if you annoy me like you are Basset!" Draco said glareing at her. Trinity had come over with fear. She began squirming and kicking and tried to bite at one of the hands Draco was holding her with but hit her head hard on the wall.She moaned in pain and Draco let her go. A tiny filcker of ammusement in his eye's.

"Think that's funny do you!" Trinity said rubbing the back of her head.

"Yes actually. Why do you have a thing about muggles?" Draco said crossing his arm's over his chest and leaning against the wall.

"As I said before all my family were muggles exept my little brother and me. Now it's just me." Trinity said now rubbing her wrist's.

"What do you mean just you?" Draco said smirking.

"Because all of my family was murdered and I saw my little brother get shot... so if you please let's get on with this tour of the school ok." Trinity said walking ahead a bit. Draco's look of amusement vanished. She had no family and she saw them murdered too. He suddenly caught sight of the bruise he had left on her right wrist and bit his lip. "Are you comeing or not Draco?" Trinity said walking back over to him.

"Yeah. Come on one more place to go before you start detintion." Draco moved infront of her.

"Oh goody!" Trinity said sarcasticly. This time Draco said nothing just led her up to the Astronomy tower then over to the charms class room so she could start Detintion with him. 'Why do I care about her?' Draco thought as they made their way to the charms class room.

"Draco what am I supposed to do in detintion?" Trinity said following him in the class room.

"What I tell you to do." Draco sat in a chair beside the door and Trinity went and sat on top of one of the tables.

"What do I do then?" Trinity asked.

"Talk to me." Draco said closeing the door.

"Talk to you about what?" Trinity asked again.

"How do you like the school?" Draco asked leaning his chair back against the wall and folded his hands behind his head.

"The school is great I have just one question. What are the unused class room's and the Astronomy tower used for?" Trinity asked with a small smile trying to seem happy though she began to rub the bruises around her wrists that were the imprint of Draco's fingers.

"Couples go in there to makeout or have sex." Draco said cheerfully. There was just something about Trinity that made him put his guard down,

"Ok then. Is it true your father is a death eater?" Trinity asked her smile fadeing. Draco's smile faded too.

"Yes." Draco said and ran his fingers through his hair. Trinity grabed a chair and turned the back of it to Draco and sat in it her chin resting on the back of it.

"Are you a death eater?"

"No. Well...not yet any way." Draco said a bit quickly. Trinity just leand in closer.

"Do you want to be?"

"No." Draco said under his breath and Trinity herd.

"Then don't be." Trinity stressed the last word.

" That's easy for you to say Trinity." Draco said darkly.

"Listen Draco. You may think that I don't know what I'm talking about but my little brother was tricked into becomeing a death eater at the age of twelve. He almost got me killed. But I forgave him and that was just two weeks before he died. I've seen what it takes to get through having the dark mark put on you. Trust me that hidious thing would not look good on you. Your looking good as is don't mess it up." Then Trinity paused and rethought what she had just said. "Uh...Did I say that..out loud..."

"Yes you did." Draco said takeing in what she ment. "You don't look bad yourself."

Trinity blushed then tried to cover it up by saying "I already knew that!"

"Well Trinity Detintion's over and I have to do this, Dumbledor told me to give you this." He handed her a badge that said Prefect on it.

"I'm a prefect?" Trinity asked pinning it to her robes.

"Yeah. The good thing about that is Prefect's and Head boy and Head girl get their own room's with their own passwords. I'll take you to your room come on." Draco led her down towards the Slytherin common room then turned onto an adjacent hallway witch led to a painting of the Hogwarts castle.

"Triforce." Draco said and the portrait swung open revealing another hallway with several door's on each side. Hermionie was standing out side one of them.

"Hey Trinity...Malfoy." Hermionie said as they walked up.

"Little Mudblood here is standing outside your door Trinity so I guess this is good bye until tommorow." Draco said smirking at Hermionie.

"Good night Draco." Trinity said as Draco dissapeared into his room wich was opposite her's.

"I see your in Slytherin." Hermionie said.

"Yes and I'd like to go to bed now if you don't mind..." Trinity was about to finish but Hermionie jumped in on her sentence.

"Your password is purplepixiepiper." Hermionie said and then went down the hall to her room.

"purplepixiepiper." Trinity said and her door opened and she went in. Her trunk was there and all her other things. Her pet owl Snowy sat on her perch. Trinity saw the fireplace empty took out her wand and said "Incendio." And a fire sprang up. Then she went and layed down on her bed and fell asleep. And dremt about the talk she had had with Draco and how she had let those little words slip and some how knew he liked her too.
