Chapter 1
A New Pet.
Y/n POV
"Y/n! Hurry up!" My mother called from downstairs, "We have to get to Diagon Alley!" I put on a simple, black hoodie and blue skinny jeans. I threw on some white sneakers and grabbed my enchanted bag Hermione had got me for Christmas. I ran down the hall to the kitchen, where my mum was waiting for me. When she saw me walk into the kitchen, she immediately got up and took a hair tie off of her arm: "Your hair is a mess, sweetheart! I have told about a million times to tie your hair up when we're going outside!" Mum scolded me whilst braiding my hair. When she was done, she pushed me towards our fire place. 'Oh no!' I thought when I realised what was going on. "Why do we have to use Floo Powder, mother? Can't we just apparate?" I growled. "No! You know I don't like apparating! And we are already connected to the Floo network, so we should really use it!" I rolled my eyes at her answer and grabbed a handful of the powder. I stepped into the fireplace, held my hand out in front of me, cleared my troath and almost yelled: "Diagon Alley!" Green flames appeared all around me and soon I found myself in Flourish and Blotts. I quickly cleaned off my clothes and started looking around the shop. I heard my mother arrive, but I didn't pay much attention and kept looking around the shop. The I saw a familiar mop of platinum blond hair. 'Malfoy!' Shivers ran trough my body at the thought of getting bullied before school has even started. Suddenly Malfoy turned around. 'Just great,' I thought, 'Now he knows I'm here!' Malfoy has changed a lot during the summer. He was way taller that before and his hair wasn't slicked back anymore. Instead it was hanging in front of his eyes. Malfoy walked a little closer, so I got a better look of his face. His jawline was definitely stronger, he looked older than 13. 'Damn,' I blushed a little, 'The last thing I needed right now was for Malfoy to get hot!' "Like what you're seeing, Hallow?" Malfoy broke the silence. I blushed even harder and turned away: "N-no!" I stuttered. I wanted to continue, but Malfoy spoke first: "Then why are you blushing?" He smirked. I didn't know what to answer, I could basically feel Malfoy's smirk. "Y/n?" My mother walked in saving a whole lot of embarrassment for me. Sometimes I'm really thankful for my mother arriving at these kind of moments. "Coming, mother!" I ran towards her. "Come on! We have to get the books!" She pulled me towards the large bookcases. After getting the books we bought my new robes. "Y/n, since you're the top of your class I have decided to reward you!" My mother began, "You are allowed to choose a pet to take to Hogwarts this year!" "Oh thank you! Thank you! Thank you, mother!" I beamed and ran towards Magical Menagerie. I knew exactly what pet I wanted. Since I was 5 years old I've wanted a cat-or more like a half-kneazle. I ran into the shop and saw all kinds of beautiful pets. There were toads, rats, a few owls, and cats. I knew exactly what cat I wanted. And there it was! It was a small, beautiful Birman cat. I walked closer to it. The cat had bright blue eyes. I read the name tag: "Aria" I mumbled to myself. She was beautiful. I bought the cat and went back to my mother: " Mother! Meet Aria! My new cat!" I smiled brightly. "Hi, Aria!" Mother stroked the cat's head, "We should get home, Y/n! It's been a long day, besides, school starts in two weeks! Let's go!" Mother insisted.

I placed Aria on my bed while I got ready for bed. Today had been amazing. Well except the part where I met Malfoy. 'But damn, he looked good! No! Snap out of it Y/n! You are enemies! Don't fall for a Malfoy!' I slapped myself. Aria meowed, questioning my actions. I chuckled and pet her head. The I flopped onto my bed and wrapped myself into my soft sheet. Aria curled up next to me. Soon we both fell asleep.
