~Chapter Four~

As Draco led the first years, along with new Slytherin students, Kylee made her way up to the front of the group to walk along side of him. When she was nearly beside him she touched his arm from behind.

"Draco," she said while hesitantly closing the remaining space between them.

When he first turned around it looked as if he had an insult waiting for whatever "dunderheaded" first year had dared make contact with him, but when he saw it was Kylee his sneer turned in to an actual smile.

"Well, Kylee, it's great that we finally got a good-looking female in our house. Believe me when I say that we have been in desperate need for a long time," he said while giving her and devious grin.

"Draco! Thats really quite rude! I'm sure that they all have, ummm.., some good qualities," Kylee replied as Pansy Parkinson shoved past her.

"Your too nice, but that will change after you've been around us for awhile. Believe me, you don't really have the look of a Slytherin, but the hat must have seen some major qualities for sucess for you to be place in here. Slytherin is a house for all witches and wizards who are ambitious, not only in a bad way. Though many Slytherin's ARE on the side of the dark lord, there are the occasional few who aren't, and I'm guessing that you are one of them," he said while momentarily breaking their eye contact to look at the hall they were now going down.

Kylee also looked at where they were and gasped. While they had been talking she didn't even realize that they had been going deeper under the school.

"Where are we? I thought we were going to our Common Room," she said while being more than a little confused.

"We are. Our Common Room is down in the dungeons, but don't worry, it's just as nice as any of the other rooms," he said as they stopped in front of a stone wall.

"Parsletounge," he said as he turned to the wall.

Kylee had a look of amazement on her face as the very wall started to transform. A huge arch opened in the wall and Draco led her, and the rest of the students, in to their new home away from home. Kylee stared in awe at the magnificantly furnished room. The walls were draped with green and silver tapestries and sparsely decorated with portraits of well-known Slytherins. There were plush rugs scattered about the floor in the places where furniture was set, there was also one particularly large one in the middle of the room, near the fireplace. The fruniture was antique in build, but looked brand new. There were a few well stuffed, and comfy, chairs over near the fireplace, along with several others stratigically placed in the different parts of the large room. There were several large tables placed along the walls, no doubt used for homework, and other, smaller ones, placed about the numerous chairs. In the far right corner there stood a large trophy case used to store all of the house trophys, and in the center of the room, near the fireplace, there was a large bulliten board hung that held all of the school news. The Common Room was completly different from what Kylle had been imagining, seeing as how it was in the dungeons, she had expected it to be a very cold, unwelcoming place, but she stood corrected. Draco looked at her as though she had gone mad, it was just the Common Room, so why did she looked so amazed?

"Why are looking at the room like that? Didn't your old School have Common Rooms," he asked curiously.

"Of course, but my school wasn't quite as...magical as this one. Our school didn't have moving staircases, or hidden doorways, we just used regular doors," Kylee replied as she finished taking one more glance around the room.

"What?! How can a school of magic be so...un-magical? Here everything is magic. The suits os armor talk, the doors hide, and the staircases move, I can't imagine school NOT being like this," Draco replied a little perplexed.

"Yeah, my school was VERY strict. The common rooms weren't nearly this nice either. You know, at first I was mad that we were moving, I was leaving everything I knew behind, but not now. This school is a lot nicer than my old school and I definately feel more at home here than I did for the last five years at my other school," Kylee stated while walking over to one of the chairs at the fireplace.

Draco followed her and sat down in a chair beside her. They sat there in silence for a few moments before they were interrupted by Crabbe and Goyle loudly makeing their way over to them and sitting around Draco.

"Hey, where have you two been? Stuffing your faces in the kitchens agian? Didn't you get enough food at the feast," Draco asked while giving them a look of disgust.

"No, we were walking around searching for unsuspecting first years to bully," Crabbe answered while grinning at Goyle.

Kylee stared at them with a look of disgust, how could Draco be friends with these horriblr people? Well, she had seen the way that he treated everyone except her. Maybe that was the way that he usually acted. She needed time to think about all this, and to see Draco acted around people besides her, so she decided to go to bed.

"I think I'm going to go to bed," she said while getting out of her chair, "Is there anyone that can show me to the dormitory?"

"Um, of course," Draco replied while looking around the room. "Hey, Pansy! Come over here," he yelled at a burly looking girl.

"Yes, Draco," Pansy said in a sweet voice while making her way to his side.

"Could you show Kylee to the Girl's Dormitory," he asked while motioning towards Kylee.

"Oh, I guess," Pansy replied, looking a little dissapointed. "Come on, the dormitory's this way."

Kylee followed Pansy up a flight of stairs on the far left side of the room. At the top of the stairs they reached a door that said "sixth year girls" on it. When they walked inside Kylee was met by a cozy looking room. There were six four post beds in the room draped with green velvet drapes. Beside each bed there was a small bed side table along with the trunk of the person that would sleep in that bed. Kylee was about to walk over to her bed, but she was stopped by Pansy.

"Stay away from my Draco," Pansy said before turning around and leaving the room.

Well, somebody's a little obsessive, Kylee thought to herself. She walked over to her bed and began to change in to her pajamas. As soon as she finished she laid down and quickly fell asleep.
