Disclaimer: I don't own, anything, except for a few, very cool characters, I own the plot and the places, I'm crazy and I write fanfiction, have you ever read such a thing in your life? As a crazy writer… (to the tune of three blind mice)

A/N: I should be murdered. But I have a good excuse, if such a thing exists. I've been sick for a month straight. Yes, again. Insane, right? And December equals holidays, which means many many Holiday Concerts to sing at, etc., etc., etc. However, since I have a vacation (thank god) I should be able to get a few chaps out.  This one is kind of short. I didn't feel like writing the rest of the summer. So here you go. The sorting! Oh ya. The warnings are the usual.

Chapter 12: Finding My Place
The first years were all sorted. Everybody was staring at the Headmaster, wondering what was important enough to keep them from eating.

"As some of you may have noticed, we have a few exchange students from America this year. They have been through a lot. I expect you all to welcome them to our family here." The hall started to whisper to one another. What new people? Did you see any one new? The girls had done a good job hiding, and no one from Grimmauld Place except for the Golden Trio had taken the train. They weren't to keen on being stared at. "The first to be sorted will be Aara O'loome, Krystal (A/N: I changed the spelling)." Krystal slowly stood up, and walked calmly to the stool before her. Dumbledore placed the hat on her head.

"Hmm… Where to place you. You are intelligent, a good match for Ravenclaw. But you also have a lot of courage. You have managed to recover from your sister's death fast. That's a Gryffindor trait. Any where I place you is a good match. But, I think your courage and bravery is overpowering. Better be…'GRYFFINDOR!' " She got up, and grabbed a seat next to Hermione, but not before giving a wink to Pansy.

"The next two girls are sisters. The first is Lindelea, Addie." She stood quickly, wanting to get the sorting over with. The sorting hat instantly shouted Ravenclaw, only telling Addie that she was good at thinking her way out of bad situations, and thought things through before she acted. She walked towards her table, sitting next to a nice face. (A/N: Luna Lovegood will not be in this fic, because, as Addie and Bella will tell you, I am Luna. And one me is enough, ask anyone.) "And finally, Lindelea, Jade." Jade took a deep breath and confidently walked towards the front of the room. Well, she was shaking uncontrollably, but no one noticed. Except for Addie. She sat, and the hat was placed over her head.

"Interesting indeed. Reminds me of a previous student. You are very brave, a Gryffinor quality, yet you are sly as well. It's a difficult choice to make. However, seeing as you are good at concealing your emotions, and acting the part you need to play, better be 'SLYTHERIN!' "

Jade smirked before walking cooly towards the table, sitting in between Pansy and Draco.

"Well, congradulations to our new students. Now, as I can see most of you are drooling," Ron blushed, "Let the feast begin!" Dumbledore flicked his wand, and the food appeared before them. The girls began to get to know their new housemates. Addie was particularly fond of a girl named Kari Lerane, and they were soon into an in depth conversation about the properties of unicorn hair. Heh. Krystal and Ron were discusiing quidditch teams. Well. More like Ron was bombarding her with questions about the American quidditch team. Jade, Draco, Blaise, and Pansy were all in a tight knit group, not wanting to get involved with the other members of the house. Too risky. During dessert, three owls swooped into the Great Hall, each one dropping a letter on one of the three members of the DA. Kari looked over Addie's shoulder.

"What is it?" Addie shrugged. She began to read aloud.

"Dear Miss Lindelea, as you may or may not know, last year was when the Prefects were chosen for each house. Unfortunately, last years female prefect for your house no longer attends Hogwarts…." It's Chocolate and Cinnamon the movie! The camera swings across the Hall to Jade, who is also reading her letter aloud.

"…Unfortunately, Miss Parkinson has decided she no longer wants the position. She asked that she was replaced by you, if you were indeed sorted into Slytherin. I'm sure that Mr. Malfoy will inform you of your duties…" Back over to center of room, to Krystal and Golden Trio.

"… Mr. Weasley was unable to fulfill his duties as Prefect last year with Miss Granger. Instead of replacing him with another male, we have decided it is with Gryffindors best interest if you were chosen…" Ron blushes a new record of red, and an owl drops a letter on his head informing him of his rejection as Prefect. Hermione and Krystal try hard not to laugh. Cameras rises to the top of the ceiling looking down on everybody in the hall. The three girl's voices in unison:

"We hope that you use your privledges wisely. Please note that there are doors in the Prefect rooms that lead to the other houses common rooms. Have a good year!" End of my little movie. Heh. Wasn't it amazing?


Addie was exploring her new private Prefect room. It was a good size, comfy, and the colors were nice. She could enjoy this. Now which one of those doors led to the Slytherin Common Room…

-

Krystal was lucky enough to share the girl's Prefect room with Hermione. She was neat and organized. She may just be able to find stuff for once. Hermione soon went downstairs to comfort Ron about his sad, yet inevitable, rejection of Prefect life. Krystal remained, unpacking her stuff. Now which one of these doors led to the Slytherin Common Room…

-

Jade was lying on her bed, thinking about the events a month prior. It was still confusing her. Why would he do that? Suddenly there was a knock on the door. "Come in." Draco walked in.

"Hey. Addie and Krystal are in the common room. Do you want to hang out with them?" She shook her head. He was about to leave when Jade called him back.

"Is there like a path out of the Common Room so I can go to the quidditch pitch? I want to check it out." Draco nodded.

"Ya, my window is spell free. Took me ages to do."

"Do you know the Disillusionment spell?"

"Ya, and I can remove it as well. Want me to cast it on you?"

"Ya, me and the broom. Thanks." She grabbed her broom out of her trunk and followed Draco into his room. Once the spell was cast, she took off through the window.


Meanwhile, in the common room, Addie and Blaise were snuggling together on one of the two black leather couchs. Pansy and Krystal occupied the other. Daw. It's so cute! Addie and Blaise were gazing into each other's eyes, talking all lovey-dovey in Italian. Pansy and Krystal were trying to decide who was the hottest celebrity witch. And failing miserably. They stayed like this for about two hours, until 11. Addie decided that if class started in two days, they should enjoy the little sleep they have left. Blaise and Pansy agreed, and returned to their dorms as well.

At about midnight, Draco was reading a book on advanced potions, when he heard a knock on his window. He quickly let Jade in, removing the spell. "Enjoy the flying?"

"Yes, actually. Good pitch. Is the team looking for any new players?" Jade took the towel that Draco offered, and wiped her forehead.

"Ya, we need a new chaser. I'm currently the seeker, but I think I'm going to try for the chaser position. Seeker isn't quite my thing."

"Wicked. I'll have to steal your position then." She smiled for a minute before a more serious look crossed her face. "Draco… We need to talk… What happened last month? It came out of no where…" Draco looked down.

"Jade, there was no way we could have known that Theo wasn't Theo…"

"Draco, I'm talking about the kiss. You know, a few nights BEFORE the murder?" Draco blushed and looked away. "I mean, you and Harry are together! And you're gay! Aren't you…?"

"Well… No. I thought I was… But then I saw you on stage and… (A/N: This is my well deserved moment of bliss. So shut up.) I changed my mind." Jade looked pained. "Well you obviously don't feel the same…"

"No, Draco, I do like you. Really, like you. But I can't do that to Harry. We have a lot in common. Let's use that acting talent for good, shall we?" She smirked, making Draco give a smile. She gave him a hug and walked back to her room.

After putting several different silencing spells on her door, she screamed into her pillow. This is so not happening.


A/N: So it wasn't that bad. I don't think. A bit cheesey at parts, I know. But I'm trying to get the whole "I love you" part across. Meh. Now click the little button and review! Please?
