Chapter Two
"So, what is Snape like?", Anna asked Hermione ask they sat down for their first class... potions class. "Well lets just say that he has his favorites. Snape is really mean to the Gryffindors, especially Harry because of how his farther treated Snape back when they were in school. He treats the Slytherins great, and Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff are kind of in the middle." Hermione explained. "Sounds like a wonderful teacher" Anna said with sarcasm dripping from every word. Anna sat down at the desk ahead of Hermione thinking she might want to sit with her friend.
She picked up her bag to find her quill to write with but then remembered her left it in her common room. 'Perfect. My first class and I'm not even ready for it.' She look further into her bag for something else when she felt someone sit next to her. She looked to see who it was and was shocked to see it was Harry.
"Hey, mind of I sit with you" Harry asked. "No its fine you can sit here" Anna said enjoying the fact that a cute guy wanted to sit next to her.
"So I really don't know much about you Anna" Harry said trying to start a conversation without being nervous. "Yeah that is because I just moved here" Anna said smiling joking around. Harry laughed a little. 'My god! That was so stupid. Why did I have to ask that. Of course I don't know a lot about her.'
"Well I am 16 years old. My full name is Anna Lynn Smith. I like to read and be around my friends. Ummm...I really don't know what else." Anna said looking at him.
Harry listened to her and was happy that she was around his age. He was just a bit older but that was ok. A few minutes later Ron came in and sat next to Hermione. "Hey thanks for letting me copy your homework Hermione. It really helped." Hermione was about to say something but was beat to it. "So Ms. Granger let you copy her homework." All four of them looked at where the voice came from. It was Snape.
The moment Anna looked at Snape she got chills going up and down her spine. "10 points from Gryffindor." He looked at Harry then at Anna. "Well you must be the new student." he said in a very dull voice. "Yes sir. I'm the new student from America." "I could tell" and with that Snape went to his desk. Anna turned around to Hermione. "I know what you mean now" Hermione gave her a look to tell her to be quiet before they get more points taken away.
But it was too late. "Ms. Smith, turn around in your seat and be quiet." "I am sorry sir I was just telling Hermione something" "No backtalk!" Snape barked. "That wasn't backtalk." Anna said getting a little mad. "Another 10 points from Gryffindor and detention." Snape ordered.
"She is new Professor. You can't give her detention." Harry said. "Well Mr. Potter if you feel that way maybe you can join Ms. Smith in detention tonight."
Anna looked at Harry. 'That was nice of him to do that for me.' Harry just sighed a little and looked at Anna. "Well I guess I will see you in detention." "Thanks for sticking up for me. It means a lot." Anna said looking at him and smiling a little. "Hey its no problem." 'Maybe detention wont be so bad' Anna thought. The rest of the day went by and Anna found out where the rest of her classes were. Harry stayed right by her side for the day. 'Hey I like this. She doesn't mind if I am around her or anything.' Their classes were over for the day and it was time for dinner.
The four sat down at the table and ate their dinner talking about the day. Anna was enjoying herself and was glad that she was their friends and was accepted by them. She kept glancing toward Ron then to Harry. Sure she liked Harry a lot but Ron was cute. 'Oh god. I cant be getting a crush on them both. I am sure Ron likes Hermione and why in the world would Harry like me.'
Dinner was over and so Anna was going to go to the potions room before Harry. She got up and started out the Great Hall not knowing someone was following her.
"So I hope you have fun with Potter in detention." Anna looked around and saw a tall blond guy with green eyes and was from Slytherin. "I am Malfoy, Draco Malfoy." "Well its nice to met you but I have to go." Anna really didn't like him that much just by looking at him.
"Why do you have to go so soon? I've only begun to talk to you and now you want to leave" he said as he got closer to her. "I need to go" Anna said backing away from him.
Draco noticed something different about this girl and wanted to find out what it was.
Anna walked up the stairs and Draco followed her. "Look I need to go and I don't need you to follow me." Draco looked at her a little mad at her for telling him to go away. "No one tells me what I can and can't have especially a Gryffindor." "Well I just did" Anna said getting a little annoyed. By this time Malfoy was mad and was about to grab her and backhand her when he heard a familiar voice. "Hey she said to leave her alone now do it Malfoy!" Anna looked and saw Harry
'Oh thank god.' "Hey this is between me and her so stay out of it" Draco snarled. "She is my friend and you will not touch her." 'Wow he is protecting me. I like this.' Draco gave Harry a dirty look then looked at Anna. "I get what I want. Just remember that." With that he stormed off.
"He didn't hurt you, did he?" Harry said coming up to Anna. "No I am fine thanks" "No problem, now we have to get to detention" With that they walked away to find Snape.
Well there you have it for the second chapter. I hope its getting better. Until later.
