(Narcissa's thoughts are in brackets)

The Grand feast soon started and not long after that ended. Narcissa observed how little her poor new friend, Severus, had been eating. While leaving the hall she decided to talk to Lucius about it.

"He's not eating." She said.
"Who's not?" Lucius asked thickly rising from his chair.
"Severus. He was crying his eyes out when he was declared Slytherin!" she whispered.
"Disturbed child." He said half-ignoring her.
"Lucius, Do you have any heart?" she asked.
Lucius ignored her and decided to boss first years about. "Hey!!! Slytherins follow me!!!" (He has NO consideration for anyone.)
She rolled her eyes and started looking for Severus. (Where is he?) Scanning the great hall she couldn't see him. Worriedly she slipped away from Lucius and started searching more.

"Severus? Where are you? Severus Snape?" she called. She heard footsteps nearing. "Severus?"
"Narcissa Black? What are you doing away from the Slytherins? They need to be taken to their Common room." It was Professor Dumbledore. He looked stern.
"Professor, I'm looking for a lost first year." Narcissa replied confidently.
"Hm. Very well then. Find them and take them straight to the Slytherin Common room." He said thoughtfully.
"Thank you professor." She thanked, walking off to look for Severus.

"Severus… Oh Severus! I've got candy (I don't, But you need to lie to get kids attention.) Where are yoooooouuuu?" she called. (Great. Made a new little firstie friend, Lost him.)
Eventually she heard a light sniffing sound nearby.
"Severus?" she called.
"Who's there?" a choked voice sobbed. (That's the kiddo.)
"It's me. Narcissa Black. I've been looking for you." She cooed softly.
"Oh." He emerged from under a gargoyle. (Okay, Personally, I wouldn't hide under a gargoyle, but it was his choice.)
"Want to tell me what's up?" she smiled putting her arm around him.
"Sirius has always been my best friend. We met at the park once when we were really little. Some big kids were threatening to curse me, that's when Sirius came. He told me to ignore them, while he told them to beat it. But now… We can't be friends anymore…" he sniffled.
"Why not?" Narcissa asked sympathetically.
"Slytherins aren't allowed to be friends with Gryfindors. My father told me that before… Never mind." He mumbled sadly.
"Is that all that's troubling you? You can tell me." She asked as they started walking.
"My parent's. Mother said something, something about buying me a going away present, but father didn't like it. He shouted at her, then he hit her… He threatened to curse her. I don't know if he did, because Sirius came and we went to the station together." He burst out crying.
Narcissa searched in her pockets for a tissue. She found one, knelt down and started mopping his eyes. "You've been through a lot today haven't you? Poor poppet."
"Narcissa. You are a prefect. Not an agony aunt." A voice called from behind. (Ooh. I wonder who that could be. Note my sarcasm.)
"Lucius!!! We are supposed to make the first years feel safe and happy." she shouted angrily.
"Yes, But that doesn't mean we play Nanny for them." Luciu drawled.
"Get lost. You're supposed to be in the common room." Narcissa hissed.
"Hm. If that's what you wish." he shook his head slowly then slinked off.
"Do you like him?" Severus squeaked when Lucius was out of sight.
"HA!!! No way." Narcissa laughed indignantly.
"oh. Sorry. I guess I'm losing everyone today aren't I?" he lowered his head sadly.
"Come on. Chin up. You're at Hogwarts. One big... Happy place!!!" she smiled, "Gonna cheer up?"
"Okay." he nodded as they walked to the common room.
