Ah hello my dear readers. So school's about to start and I am in band which, unfortunately, means that it might be a week or so before I update. Yes I know all of ya'lls hearts are breaking but we will make it through this together! But the good thing is I am also taking English two which means my writing might get better! (: Anywho, I'm sure you have all been waiting for this chapter so I'm just gonna shut up and get to it.
REMEMBER: I do NOT own Harry Potter except for the character Jess, they are all thirteen in their first year and all the upper classmen you can do the math, and I have not read the books.
When the food appeared, I didn't eat anything which is a big shock. I might be the size of a pinky but I can eat like a grown man. It all looked delicious but I lost my appetite. Why the hell am I in Slytherin? I mean, everyone knows any wizard that's gone bad has been in Slytherin. I am not a bad person! Sure I can talk my way out of getting grounded and I lie but what thirteen year old doesn't lie?
"Um . . . . hello there." a voice said. I looked up and there was a girl with brown hair with a few natural looking blonde streaks and brown eyes. she actually looked a lot like me minus the red hair. She sat down across from me. "I'm Caroline Smith." She said extending her hair across the table.
"Jess Weasly." I said keeping my hands in my lap. Not to be a bitch or anything but I don't want to shake her hand and it end up being some prank on me.
She looked hurt but not surprised as she retracted her hand. "Look, I know Slytherins are suppose to be the bitch or the assholes of the wizarding world but not all of them are like that. Draco and his gang just makes us seem that way. I swear, I'm a nice person. Just give me a chance." She said giving me a slight smile.
I sighed as I thought about it. Well what she says has some truth in it. All of Slytherin can't be that bad. I mean I'm in it and I'm not a total jackass. I smiled and extended my hand over the table. Her smile got bigger and she shook my hand.
So out of my whole house hold, I have one friend and about maybe half a hundred enemies. This school year is looking quiet promising eh? Yeah I thought so also.
When dinner was over, each house was led to their dorms. Ours was in the dungeon area. Is it weird that I find that cool? After the head of the house had said the password opening the door, we all stepped in and took in the place where we would be sleeping.
It was darker than the other rooms of Hogwarts but in a cool, eerie way. There were candles lit giving off a dim light with green and silver curtains surrounding the whole room. The furniture was black with silver lining. Basically, the room had this gothic look but comfy look at the same time. I liked it. But what I didn't like was the big portrait of Salazar Slytherin in the common room reminding me that I am in fact a Slytherin.
"Now, you kids are free to go to your room or stay in the common room. But you are not allowed to leave the Slytherin doors. There will be consequences." Serverus Snape said and then disappeared.
I was tired and have had a shitty day so the only thing on my mind was going to sleep. I started heading up the stairs to the girl's dorm when IT spoke.
"I can't believe you actually came." I turned around and Draco was staring at me with a sneer. I can't believe I was actually stupid enough to think that I would get through the day without Draco saying something. Well, that's what I get for thinking. "You and everyone else here knows that you don't belong here Weasly."
"Trust me Malfoy, I know this. I'm not stupid. But it's not like I have much choice." I walked down the steps and towards him knowing Ron is going to kill me for what I'm about to say. "Look, since we are stuck in the same house let's just try to get along." I said holding my hand out. If I am going to make it out of this alive, I have to make friends with my enemies.
Draco though, had other plans. "Me? Get along with a Weasly? Please, your family is a disgrace to the whole wizard world." He said.
He said the wrong thing. Too bad he didn't realize that until my fist came in contacted with his nose. With a scream, he fell to the ground with blood pouring out of his nose. His two lackeys, who's names I learned are Crabbe and Goyle, bent down to help him up. Everyone else backed up to give us some room. Draco just stared at me with shock written on his face. "You little-"
"Don't ever insult my family Malfoy. You will regret it." I said in a low voice with venom dripping from each word.
The room got darker as I went for another punch when someone grabbed my wrist. I turned around and Snape was holding my wrist. Oh shit. The room lightened again and I relaxed. Great, I'm in trouble on the first day of school. Mother would be so proud.
"Weasly, girls dorm now. We will discuss this matter tomorrow. Crabbe, Goyle, I shall escort Draco to the nurses office. Seems he has a broken nose. Everyone else, carry on." Snape said pushing Draco out of the Slytherin House.
I just turned around and stomped of into the girl's dorm. I heard footsteps behind me and when I looked behind, I saw that Carrie was following me. At least after tonight, I'll have one person to talk to. I have a feeling I won't be the most liked person in Slytherin.
Okay so writing this chapter to WAAAYYY longer than I hoped it would and I am sorry. It is all my band directors' fault. I had like no time to write and the only reason I had time today was because my wisdom teeth were taken out and I haven't been able to do much. Please review what you think about my story so far and if you have any suggestions, feel free to tell me.
Something to look forwards to: Jess and Draco are in the same spell class…..so many dangerous chemicals….:)
