Chp.2

Gryffindor

Paige walked up the stone floor of Hogwarts, with Draco and Hermione by her side, talking about what would happen next, they were going to show her to the entrance of the Great Hall were she'd meet Prof. McGonagall.

She was nervous. God, was this really necessary??? They stopped in front of two big doors, an old lady standing in front. Her hair was in a tight bun, she wore glasses, and her dress was simple.

"Ms.Halliwell, welcome to Hogwarts." She said. Her voice was pretty emotionless, but kind enough for a teacher

"Thanks."

She turned around to the two others.

"Mr.Malfoy, Ms.Granger, you can go inside."

"Good luck." He muttered and followed Hermione through the doors.

'Thanks, I'll need it.' The professor turned back to her.

"I don't know what you said to them" her voice became more casual "but I hope it lasts, I have never seen those two get along."

Paiges smile faded as the doors opened and the Great Hall was revealed. She swallowed hard and closed her eyes.

"Come now dear, they're all waiting."

She opened her eyes and followed Prof. McGonagall.

Everyone was looking at her. Everyone.

Some of them were whispering things, others just stared at her. She saw Harry, Ron and Hermione sitting together at one of the tables, they were smiling at her. At the Slytherin table across the room, she saw Draco smiling at her aswell, she couldn't help but smile back.


In front of her was another long table were all the teachers were seated. An old man stood up in the middles as she got closer. He had a very long white beard and glasses as well, shaped like half-moons. And right in front of him was a chair with a large, worn-out hat. She stopped in front of it and then....

"Ahhh, more students."

Paige jumped in surprise. There were some laughs in the Hall.

"Don't be startled, Ms.Halliwell, he won't bite."

Paige looked up at the old man, and saw him smiling at her with a twinkle in his eyes.' McGonagall moved the hat and gestured for her to sit. Paige did what she said without hesitation. 'The sooner this is over, the better.'

"Well, what do we have here? Another Halliwell! Ahhhh, I remember sorting your mother. Quite a head that one. Ahhh, so many of the same traits. What will I do with you?"

"You have her wits. But the attitude, oh such a typical American teen rebel..."

'Am not!'

"Oh, yes you are. The fear hasn't taken over yet, so you act unlike yourself to get away from it."

"Do you have to read my mind out loud?" She asked in a whisper.

"Hmmm, a lot of power. Yes, you have great amounts of power. Is that what you fear, yourself? Hmmm, maybe so. But I still have to sort you somewhere. But where? You could fit anywhere."

'OhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGod'

"Hmmm, how about GRYFFINDOR!"

"Yes!" She jumped of the chair and made her way towards the cheering table of Gryffindors.

She sat down next to Hermione who gave her a hug.

"Welcome to Gryffindor!" Ron shouted over the endless cheering

"Thanks!" She looked over at the Slytherin table. They all looked a bit pissed that another student had gone to Gryffindor. She met Dracos eyes; he was still smiling at her.


Paige made her way towards the Gryffindor table. She was tired, she had circle under her eyes and her body was sore. She had been up really late with Ron, Harry, Hermione and Draco up in the Head Dorm. And she had been orbing all over school in her sleep. Thank God she had her own dorm, Dumbledore thought her power might startle the others.

"Sleep well?" Hermione eyed her carefully

"Oh yeah, totally" She tried to be sarcastic.

"Well, you look tiered." Ron shot in

Hermione and Paige looked at him and shook their heads

A large Barn-Owl landed in-front of them carrying four pieces of paper.

"Oh! Schedules."

"What's your first class?" She asked them

"Double Charms with Huffelpuff, you?"

She handed Hermione her schedule. She looked at it and gaped.

Harry and Ron leaned over the table and stared at the schedule.

They were silent for a while. "Paige?"

"Yeah?"

"Ummm, how come you only have DADA classes and Potions?"

"Well,......... Honestly, I don't know. "

"That is so unfair! Look how much free time you get!"

"Yeah, but she still has to take Potions"

"Is that bad?"

"YES!" they all shouted in unison.

People from the other tables looked at them strangely.

The four of them laughed.

"Okay, I have to ask, why is it SO terrible?"

"Because it's with Snape, and the Slytherins." Ron said annoyed.

"So?"

"He is totally partial! He takes points from the Gryffindors without any reason, gives points to the Slytherins without them deserving them, and he always hated us."

"It can't be that bad" She looked at the two others. "Can it?" They nodded.

"Oi......."

".....turn your books to page 68." Snapes cold voice rung through the cold dungeon which was the potions classroom. Draco looked at the door for Paige. She was late, not the best way for her first lesson with Snape. He looked over to the Trio, they didn't seem to know where she was either.

"....The potion will be tested at the end of the class ...." The door opened, everyone turned their gaze to it.

"Ahhh, Ms.Halliwell, how nice of you to finally grace us with your presence."

"I got kinda lost." She tried to be as polite as possible

"10 points from Gryffindor" His voice was cold and emotionless

"Wh....." she looked at Hermione, she had one finger over her lips.

"Yes, Ms.Halliwell?"

"Nothing....."

"Very well, sit down."

She walked over to the only empty seat, right next to Draco.

"Good morning." He noticed her fiddling in her book "its page 68."

"Thanks. Morning to you too." She looked up at the black board then at him again "Is he always like this? Or is it just a morning thing?"

"Nope, it's more of a Gryffindor thing."

"Oh joy....... God I'll never survive this place."

He went and got their ingredients.

"Hey don't worry about it, this is normal, be thankful you're not Longbottom."

He looked over to the other end of the classroom. She followed his gazed to the brown haired boy sitting with Hermione. "He's been making his life hell since first year."

She looked at him, her eyes a bit wider. "Why?" she whispered.

"'Cos he's a Gryffindor, and a klutz, but"

BANG!

Paige almost jumped out of her chair, she was the only one who reacted to the explosion. No one else as much as flinched.

She looked at Draco. He just shook his head.

Hermione and Neville were covered in a green substance.

Snape took 25 points from Gryffindor.

Draco looked back at her "Daily routine"
