The next day; at breakfast. You sat next to Ron as you talked to Hermione about advanced spell that you have learned and she learned. A small screech owl landed in Ron's eggs. "Ug! Pig!!" Ron mutters as he grabbed the letter and picked the eggs off it. He read the letter and anger soon showed on his face.

"Bad news?" Hermione asked.

Ron only ripped up the letter up and stuffed it into his drink. He got up and stomped out of the room, fists clenched.

"Woh, what was that about? I never saw him do that!"

"Well, let's see." Harry said grabbing the ripped letter out of the juice.

"HARRY! That's privet!!"

"I'm going to check on Ron." You said getting up. You found Ron in the hall yelling at Ginny. "Ronald!! Why are you yelling at Ginny?!" you asked.

"She did it! She told Mum and Dad!"

"About what?"

"You. They disapprove just because you're a Malfoy!!"

"Ginny, do you not like me because of my last name?"

"I don't trust you. Malfoy's are Death eaters!!"

"What? No we are not!!"

"Yes you are, don't deny it, stupid! I know it for a fact! Lucius is one and you and your brother, well, it's just a matter of time!!"

"I don't know what you're bloody talking about!! I'm not a you know who follower!! And as far as I know, neither is my father!!"

"Don't give me that crap!"

"Ginny! Stop! Rose is different!"

Tears started to fall from your eyes and you run from them.

"I'm not falling for that! You are a good actress, Malfoy!!" you heard Ginny shout after you.

"Rose! Rosemarie!!" Ron ran after you and grabbed your arm. "Don't listen to her. She…"

"No Ron. Your family hates me. I-I think it would be best to stay away from each other. Good bye." You gave him a small kiss and started to walk away but he held on tight. "Ron, don't make this any harder." You said looking down and walking slowly away from him. Tears still flooding out.

You sit beneath a tree, looking out at the giant squid in the lake.

"Rose, what are you doing out hea- what's wrong?!" Draco said when he saw your tear-streaked face. All you could do was mumble something no one could understand and Draco put his arm around you in a brotherly way. You cry into his chest. "It's weasel, isn't it? That muggle-lover hurt you!"

you shake your head. "No. His family hurt me. They hate me, Draco!!" you whisper. "Just because I'm a Malfoy."

He hugged you tighter; knowing that if he said what was on his mind you would hurt him, bad. You sat crying in silence for ten minuets. "Rose, we should go to class."

"You go. I don't feel like it."

"Will you be okay alone?"

"Yes, I'll live." He gave you a final hug before trotting back up to the castle. "Why would Ginny say those things about my family? I know Draco hasn't been the kindest guy to them, but to accuse our whole family of being Death Eaters?" you murmur to yourself. "But, what if I'm wrong?" you sighed thinking to when your father would go on trips you'd not know were or what he was doing.

"Miss Malfoy, have you listened to a word I have said?" McGonagall said sternly. It was the day after Ron had received the letter from home.

"Sorry, I have not." You moan.

"Well, If you had you'd know that Dumbledore wishes to speak with you."

You stuff your book and quill into your bag and made your way down to his office on the floor below. When you opened the door you saw your Father talking to Dumbledore. "You wish to speak with me, sir?"

"Yes, have a seat, Miss Malfoy." Dumbledore said gesturing to a chair next to the one your father occupied. You sat and looked at your father who had a small smile on his face. "Miss Malfoy, after constant never-ending speeches made by your father to me, I have agreed to have you transfer to the Slytherin house. You will pack your things tonight after classes and move to your new quarters." You put on a small smile. This meant you didn't have to deal with seeing Ron sitting in the corner reading' his book upside-down. "Now, I have to have a small word with Professor Snape." Dumbledore said standing and walking out of the room.

"Daddy?"

"What?"

"Are you a death eater?"

"What? Where did that come from?"

"Ginny Weasly said all Malfoys are You Know Who followers. And she…" he put his hand in your shoulder.

"Rose…"

"Daddy, when I sat to think about it, whenever you left on a trip and didn't say ware you were going, well, soon after the Death Eaters would be reported to be spotted…"

"Rose…"

"Daddy! I want the truth!"

your father sighed. "I didn't want you to know…" he pulled up his sleeve and showed you his mark.

You tossed the last of your books into your trunk and went over to the wardrobe were you had your clothes stored. "What are you doing, Rose?"

"My father bugged Dumbledore until he gave in about placing me in Slytherin. So now I have to be moved by tonight."

"You're leaving me?!"

"Hey, I don't have a choice hear!!"

"But then we…"

"Don't worry, we can still be friends!" you toss the last of your things into your trunk and close the lid.

"This stinks worse than when Neville dropped a hat into his potion!"

"I know. Well, See you around…" you said giving her a hug. "Um, Hermione, I have to go and it's kind of hard to breath."

"Sorry." She said letting go of you. You drag your trunk down to the common room, Hermione at your heels.

"Rose, were are you going?" Asked Harry.

"Her dad forced Dumbledore to switch her to Slytherin." Hermione said, depressed-like.

"What?!!"

"I know, could you tell Ron? It still hurts to see him. Oh, and tell Ginny she doesn't have to worry anymore cuz she'll never have to see me again."

"Y-ya, okay." You gave Harry a hug and pulled your trunk out into the school corridor.

"Ready, Miss Malfoy?" Snape asked. He, being head of Slytherin house had been waiting to escort you to the Slytherin Common room.

"Yes sir."

Using his wand, he carried your trunk down to a stonewall in the dungeons. "Basilisk." He muttered and the wall opened into a doorway.

You stepped into the room and saw a colder version of the Gryffindor common room. Pansy sat in a chair working on homework. There was a small group of boys on the couch. But other than that it was pretty empty. Pansy looked up from her textbook when she heard the wall open. "ROSE!!" she jumped up and gave you a tight hug.

"Hi pansy!" you smile hugging her back.

"What are you doing hear?"

"My father finally convinced Dumbledore to put me here."

"You're a Slytherin now?"

"Yes."

She squealed out of delight. The boys looked up at you two like you were crazy. Snape had disappeared with your trunk. "So, dose your brother know?"

"No, he… I know what you're thinking!!" you said and you both put on your identical mischievous smiles on. "Were is he?" you ask.

"Up in his dorm room. Come on!" you followed her down a flight of stairs and into a room.

Draco sat on his bed with his back facing you and Pansy. He was talking to Crabbe, Goyle, and Blaze. You wink at Pansy and go up behind Draco, putting your hands over his eyes and wile hiding your voice to match an old crone's; saying, "Guess whom!"

Pansy, I'm busy!"

pansy giggled and you pinch him. "HOW DARE YOU THINK I'M PANSY!!"

He jumped and looked at you. "Rosemarie!! What are you bloody doing hear in SLYTHERIN house?!"

"Well, nice to see you to!" you snort at him. "I am in Slytherin now, DU!!"

"H-how?"

"Daddy finally got thru to Dumbledore." You said sitting by Blaze.

"What about your seeker position?"

"Oh, they are giving me the chance to take your spot."

"But…"

"Draco, face it, I'm lighter, smaller, and faster. And I beat Potter at a practice last week. He showed up so I could have a real' challenge. And as I recall, you have never won againced him."

"Ho! Now we can win the cup this year!!"

"Shut up, Crabbe!!"

"Guys, Could I talk to Draco alone for a moment?"

"Um, ya."

Everyone left, leaving you and your brother alone. "Draco, did you know about dad?"

"What do you mean?"

"His job?"

"At the ministry?"

"No, the other one…"

"What are you…"

"Draco, I saw the mark."

Draco looked shocked. "Yes, I knew. Dad didn't want you to. He didn't want you to get hurt."

"Hurt? Draco, our father is a Bloody death eater and he's worried about me getting hurt? Well, even when I didn't know I could have gotten hurt!! I-I did…"

"What are you talking about?"

"Ron. His sister wrote a note to her Mum because I was a Malfoy. And because Dad is…"

Draco gave you a side hug.

"So, Pansy where is my room?"

"You're sharing with me, come on!" Pansy grabbed your hand and pulled you down a different flight of stairs and into a warm green and silver bedroom.

Your trunk was at the end of your bed. You flop onto your bed. "Now THIS feels like home!"

"Rose?"

"Ya?"

"Are you and Weasly…"

"No."

She looked relived.

You sat at the Slytherin Table surrounded by the Slytherin girls you have made friends with. "You Know, Rose, your brother is so hot!" said a girl named Tina.

"Ew! No he's not!! He's about as attractive as whatever Hagrid is hiding beneath that gruff beard of his!!" you said jokingly. You laughed as she thru a grape at you. "Watch it!"

"Well, he is to me, and he's your brother so I don't expect you to agree!"

"Well, class will be starting in about two minuets." You said checking your watch. "I should dash!" you said standing.

"Wait up! We have class together!!" Tina said running after you.

You and Tina hooked arms as you walked to class. Suddenly there was a squealing noise and someone was hugging you from behind. "Rose!! It's so good to see you!!"

you turn to see an old friend from your school in Canada. "Dory!!" you hug her back. "What are you doing hear?"

"Transferring here! Papa wants me to be closer to home! I'm headed to the Headmaster's office to get sorted into a house. What house are you in?"

"Slytherin. Well, I have to go, can't afford to be late. See you around."

"Bye!"

You run into your classroom. "Who was that?"

"Dory. A friend from Canada."

"Canadian?"

"No, Scottish. But her mother lived in Canada, and after she died, well, I guess her Father wants her hear."
