Chapter Two

Kiana's POV

The warm water of the shower hit my face waking me up properly from my sleepy state. Washing my hair with raspberry shampoo/conditioner and my body with vanilla body wash. Hopping out, I magically dried myself and changed into a black thigh length pleated skirt, white short sleeved blouse, a blue and bronze Ravenclaw tie, knee high socks and my black ballet flats. The uniform wasn't to bad and I did actually look good in it. Throwing on my black Hogwarts cloak and brushing my hair, I came out of the dorm bathroom to find my two new best friends Georgie Johnson and Eve Ronson getting their stuff together.

"Omigod Ki-Ki, you have to leave your hair out today!" exclaimed Eve. "It looks so pretty."

"Hmph! That's just the veela magic." snarled a jealous room mate named Veronica Hargrave.

I just rolled my eyes. I was already used to girls bitching about me because half the guys drooled over me. I was just so happy that Eve and Georgie didn't blame me for that.

"Go cover yourself in that cheap make up Veronica." snapped Georgie.

I smiled gratefully at Georgie and Eve as Veronica and her friend Sarah stormed out of the dorm. Once the three of us were ready, we grabbed our bags and made our way down to the great hall. Sitting down at the Ravenclaw table, I piled my plate with bacon and eggs. Soon three people came up to me and introduced themselves.

"Hi, I'm Hermione Granger and these are my friends Harry Potter and Ron Weasley." a bushy haired girl said pointing to a pair of red haired and black haired boys.

Hermione didn't look like one to bitch and was smiling happily at me. Harry didn't seem affected by the veela magic unlike Ron who was just staring at me.

"It's a pleasure to meet you all, especially you Harry." I said smiling in return.

In America Harry Potter was very well known but not that important. Ron gave a goofy grin as they walked away after saying if I needed anything, just ask.

Jumping into a sit opposite me and next to Eve, Jack landed loudly at the table.

"Good morning fellow Ravenclaws. Ready for a fresh year of study, getting good grades and annoying the hell out of the devil spawn children they call our teachers?" he asked sarcastically.

Jack was best friends with Georgie and Eve and was thankfully looked past the veela charm. He had dark brown hair and eyes to match. He had a youthful and cute complexion that was ruled by his cheekiness and rule breaking personality. He strongly reminded me of my old best guy friend Dave back in America.

"Oh yea! Just let me get my wand ready in case they try to teach us." Georgie dramatically said. I reckon she'd be good in muggle theatre.

Six more groups of people introduced themselves during breakfast but none of the guys seemed that extra special to catch my eye. All of them had the glazed over look in their eye and I knew they were out for my body.

Eve laughed with me as we joked about the last guy who had tripped spilling pumpkin juice over Veronica. We thanked him and found out his name was Neville Longbottom. All he did was mutter "No problems" and blushed greatly. We headed off to first period which was History of Magic that was taught by Professor Binns, a ghost which seemed pretty cool but the others warned me how boring it was.

"It can't be that boring." I said walking into the classroom.

A Period Later

I walked out of the class yawning and rubbing my eyes. That was the dullest thing ever and it didn't help how half the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw guys stared at me.

"Told ya!" teased Jack, shaking his head at me.

"Ok, maybe you were right." I yawned again and they all laughed.

We started off to Defence Against The Dark Arts with guys still staring at me and trying to start up a bambling conversation about how pretty I was. I brushed them off since we were running late for class and I didn't want to talk to them anyway. Rolling my eyes at the last attempt to get my attention, I walked into the room. Sitting down next to Georgie, the last few Slytherins came in followed by a young good looking teacher.

"Settle down!" he yelled. "My name is Professor Denton and I will be teaching you Defence Against The Dark Arts. This is a very important subject and so I expect you all to pay attention."

He glared at the boys who were dreamily gazing at me. I let out a quiet frustrated sigh and waited for him to continue. His eyes lingered on me and felt them roam over my body. I involuntarily shivered and he continued on with his speech.

"Today's listen will consist of splitting you all up into pairs and practising non-verbal spells on each other." he explained. "One will be using the very simple defence shield charm while the other will be using a harmless curse, preferably jelly legs or a laughing charm. Now non-verbal spells help in a battle as the other dueller does not know what spell you will use or when you will cast it. Here are the following pairs…"

As he listed off the names, I looked around the room. My eyes fell on the platinum blonde guy that I saw last night at dinner. He was in Slytherin which added to a bad boy look that I guess he was going for. I had done a test to see if he was interested in the veela side of me or just me. He passed with flying colours and I wouldn't have minded getting to know him better. He definitely caught my eye.

"And the last pair will be Malfoy, Draco and Walton, Kiana." All of the guys groaned except for Jack and the platinum blonde boy who was making his way over to me with a smirk on his face. I noticed how the girls glared at me, excluding Georgie and Eve.

Draco…Latin for dragon, I wonder if his name suited his personality?

"I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy." he said in a husky voice.

I smirked at this. So typical of a guy to use the James Bond introduction style. "Kiana Walton. Pleasure to meet you." I took his outstretched hand and shook it.

"Believe me, the pleasure is all mine." he said smirking widely.

If any other guy had said that cheesy line, I would have thrown up by now but somehow it was different with Draco. His words made smile and look away shyly. We started on the task and we could both easily do it. After Professor Denton watched us easily block each others spells without speaking, he allowed us an early mark. Unfortunately we still got a 12 inch essay on non-verbal spells that he suggested we started on now.

Walking through the halls, we made it out to the lake and sat down against a tree and felt a warm breeze blow.

"So why did you move to England?" Draco asked.

"My family moves around a lot. I've practically lived all over the world but my parents decided to finally settle down and bought a castle in the country side of Kent." I replied. "I was actually born in England so I am a true Brit."

Draco laughed. "Hang on, you said Kent?"

"Yea, we moved in at the beginning of the summer holidays. It's this really cool castle and my parents allowed me to take over half of the top story. It's even got a moat and it's own quidditch pitch." I said happily. I went off into describing the whole castle but Draco stopped me.

"Oh that is so cool. I live right near you in one of the neighbouring castles." he said keeping his calm manner but I could see the excitement in his eyes.

"That is awesome. We're practically neighbours but with a hundred miles between us." I laughed.
We went on talking about ourselves and we both discovered we play quidditch (we were both seekers), we both had pureblood crazed parents, both hated pork and that we loved money and power.

The bell rang from the castle and we got up heading towards the doors.

"I never thought that I'd have so much in common with someone." Draco said smirking at me.

I laughed. "Me either Mr. Malfoy but we have to end our time together as I have Muggle Studies and I could never see you in that class."

"Damn straight, filthy muggles." he said. "But I guess you're right, I have to get to Potions. Not that it matters with Professor Snape. Miss Walton, it's been a pleasure."

I blushed as he kissed my hand goodbye and went off down the dungeon steps only after he waved goodbye one more time. I noticed how passing guys glared in the direction Draco went but I pushed past them and up the stairs.

Sitting down next to Jack, the only person I knew in Muggle Studies, he looked at my happy grin suspiciously.

"Alright, after being friends with Eve and Georgie for over six years, I know what that look means. Who is the one that you have a crush on?" he asked bluntly.

I looked at him shocked but couldn't help but giggle. "I wouldn't call him a crush, just a friend. And someone who looks past the veela." I added.

He sent me a grin but still gave me a warning. "Just be careful, I don't want you to get hurt. I've known you less than 24 hours and yet you still seem like my younger sister."

"Awww, that's so sweet." I cooed, giving him a hug. I ignored the glares from the guys.

The rest of the day passed quickly and found myself at dinner eating a nice roast lamb.

"So who is the guy that Jack said you fancy?" Eve asked as I took a bit of roast potato.

I looked up at her. "No one." Her and Georgie gave me a look of 'Yea right!' "Fine, I'll tell you back at the dorms."

They agreed and we started up a conversation about the quidditch try-outs. As I was telling them how I would try out, Draco caught my eye from the Slytherin table. I sent him a smile and he sent me a sexy smirk back. A light tinge of pink creep up my cheeks but then Georgie reminded me that I was in a conversation.

After the long walk up to the Ravenclaw common room and then to the sixth year girl dorms, Eve and Georgie sat on my bed with me and I told them all about Draco before Veronica and Sarah returned.

"What?! You like Draco?!" Eve shouted.

I covered my ears. "What's wrong with that?"

Georgie laughed. "Jack said you didn't want to get hurt right?" I nodded. "Well then liking Draco Malfoy is the wrong way of avoiding it."

"Why? Is he some kind of player?" I asked half joking.

"The biggest player at Hogwarts. He will use all types of seduction and romance to get into you pants. He will definitely break your heart." Eve stated.

"Oh shit. I have to fall for the bad boys." I said sarcastically. "Well at least you guys warned me before anything serious happened."

"Yea, believe me, so many girls fall for him and he just uses them and tosses them away." Georgie explained.

I groaned. "I'll try and avoid him from now on."

"Good idea." they both said.

Changing into our pj's, we got out our homework and completed everything that was due in the nest day. Veronica and Sarah had returned. Along with the other two room mates. The four of them glared at us as we waved them out. While brushing our teeth, I listened to them tell me all about Draco and some of the stories and rumours.

Finally going to bed, I decided before I fell asleep that I'd try and do anything to avoid him.
