A/N YEAH! COUNTING WRONG KEEPS THE BRAIN HEALTHY!!! The Weasley's aren't 8 siblings but 7! I think I might have counted Percy two times…
I am not to happy about the scene between Aria and Ginny in the last chapter but the writer block HAD to come out in some way…

I want to tell you all something, it's an advice from my friend, Victoria… Poop is brown and tastes shitty. She tried to "Help" when I had a writer block, she wanted me to add that in Draco's talk to Blaise, with that over I'll resume to the story…

It is easier to forgive an enemy than to forgive a friend

"POOF!" Draco woke up with a jolt. A pillow hit him in the head, he turned around.

Blaise stood by the door and grinned like a maniac.
"Hey! Wake up mate! Classes start in about 40 minutes and I would love to have some breakfast before that!" Blaise stated and conjured out more pillows he sent Draco's way. Draco cursed and took up his wand from the bedside table and quickly sent a pillow straight at Blaise's face. He smirked satisfied. Blaise responded with a jet of water coming his way. Draco ducked.

"I was supposed to take a shower anyway Blaise, no worries…" Draco drawled. Blaise just laughed at him and continued sending pillows.

"Bloody morning people! Not healthy to bee this happy this early…" Draco muttered and disentangled himself from his sheets and stood up. Blaise already fully dressed, were leaning on the door and studied his finger nails, looked like the pillows had flown by their own accord. Draco glared at him and made his way to the bathroom and took a hot shower, steam filling the entire bathroom. After a good twenty minutes the water turned ice-cold and Draco yelped, he could hear Blaise laughing. Draco got out and got dressed. He heard Blaise rummaging his room behind the door and snickered to himself, he knew he was after his storage of Honeyduke's chocolate. And he was right, after a few minutes a strangled cry was heard and Draco laughed. His trap had worked just fine it seemed. He stretched for his hair gel and dropped dead as he saw himself in the mirror. His hair, if possible, was even blonder then before, longer too, falling roughly around his face. And his muscles showed of under his thin, pale skin too, Quiditich training had paid of. He touched one of the long scars Potter gave him last year and followed it down across his chest to his hip. It had healed rather well but it was still there. "Battle memories" his father would have called them. Unintentionally he made a disgusted face. He hadn't seen his father since he was put away in Azkaban. He had spent his summer under Snape's protection in his house, his mother spending many resources of getting Draco of the hook. He smirked and put down the gel again. He didn't want to follow his father's footsteps; he walked paths no one walked before. He smiled slightly and pulled on his pitch-black robe, letting his hair be untamed. He now realized why girl's like Parkinson followed him around, he had matured over summer. Not only physically, but psychological as well.

He noticed that Blaise raised his eyebrows when he came out but he soon dropped it. He waved his hand in front of Draco. The fingers were blue and started to become greenish.

"Your sodding pot plant nearly chewed my fingers of!" He raged. Draco laughed at him and strode out of the room. As Head boy he had privileges. One was that he had a spare room which was used as a room for Blaise. He walked down the stairs down to the common room he shared with the Head Girl. He frowned at the thought. As there weren't many people back at Hogwarts this year there hadn't been a Head Girl and he suspected that McGonagall should pick some younger prefect then a 7th. He smirked, that would be great, performing rounds with a little scared 6th year. Blaise was muttering behind him, trying to fix his hand, which had swollen and now had a defined shade of green.

"It was my wand-hand! I can't even cast a darn spell!" Blaise bursted. Draco rolled his eyes and whirled around. He snatched Blaise hand and pointed his wand at his fingers.

"Episkey Fictum!" He said simply and a silvery light bursted out of the wand tip. The light consumed the hand for a moment and suddenly there was a flash and Blaise hand was fully healed. Draco arched an eyebrow. Blaise looked at his hand suspiciously; he wriggled his fingers and looked up to Draco. He nodded a thank you and strode out of the portrait hole before him. Draco snorted and followed amused.

The hallway was nearly abandoned when they came down from the 5th floor, it felt odd somehow. He hadn't got quite used to instead of the dungeons he had to walk up the staircase. Suddenly all the students bursted out from nowhere, going in all possible directions. He thought he saw one running into a wall. . He pushed his way through the students who were heading to their classes. Blaise followed him quietly though at some points he walked beside him. It was at one of these periods Blaise suddenly whispered in his ear.

"Parkinson, 9 o'clock." Draco nodded sharply and instead of heading to the great hall he made a sharp turn and took cover in an alcove. From the shadows he saw Blaise whistle a light melody with his hands shoved in his robe and continue to the Great Hall. He was cut of when Parkinson made his way to him. Draco made a face, if it was possible Pansy Parkinson looked even more detesting then usual. She had her short, dark hair up in two pigtails and had a sickening smile plastered across her face. He sighed when he saw Blaise shrug and walk away, to his disappointment, Pansy stalked away after him. Draco sighed, no opportunity to sit by the Slytherin table today. His stomach growled and He groaned. This is just great! How am I now going to get something?! He knew Pansy would pester Blaise whole breakfast. He was thinking hard where he was in the protecting shadows in the alcove. He knew that the kitchen was closed for the students now a days, not even the Prefects were supposed to be down there. If only he had his invisibility cloak, but it was safely tucked beside his guardian pot plant. Then he got it, he didn't have to sit by the Slytherin table. He smirked and drew his wand. He pointed it at his hair and the strands before his eyes started to darken from the light blonde to dark brown. He quickly shoved his Head boy badge away and mumbled a spell to hide his Slytherin mark on the robe. He sighed and gazed at the never-ending stream of pupils when suddenly a movement near him caught his attention. He was about to step out when a bag dropped near his hiding spot and he backed against the wall even harder. A red headed female bent down and picked up her books while cursing loudly. Draco stifled a snort, typically Weasley. Then he looked closer on the girl, she hadn't the distinguished Weasley red hair, it was a darker and deeper shade. And now when he thought of it, she was a lot taller then her as well and Weaslette was up in the hospital wing. The girl's head snapped up and looked on him, though he was certain she couldn't actually see him. He gaped, only to shut his mouth closed again, gape wasn't something he did. The eyes that searched for him was a bright violet colour. She stood up briskly.

"I know you're in there so stop staring at me!" She said hotly, the people around her staring at her. Draco quickly stepped out and looked nervously around; he pulled a hand through his messy dark hair.

"Be quiet girl!" He hushed harshly. She raised her eyebrows and opened her mouth to reply. Draco's eyes widened and he saw Pansy made his way out of the Great Hall. Even if his hair was changed from the easily recognized blonde she would still recognize his face. He did the first thought that crossed his mind. He grabbed the girl and covered her mouth with his. She stiffened and stared at him and her eyes narrowed to slits she struggled and his hands and lips felt a burning feeling. He ignored it and dragged them to the alcove again and there they stood when Pansy walked by with out noticing them. The girl pulled back and glared at him. Her eyes flared with anger. Now the slightly burning feeling had increased and Draco found himself letting her go with a jolt. He stared at his hand and then the girl.
"What was that about?!" She whispered angry. Draco smirked at her.

"You, my dear, have just had a one in a lifetime experience, be glad." He sneered and looked over her shoulder to see if the coast was clear. He saw no one out in the corridor and he sighed relieved and made a motion to walk away, but no such look.

"Oh no! You're not going anywhere until I've had an explanation!" She stated calmly and blocked his path with her arm. She now smiled wide. He locked eyes with her, his grey one bore into her purple.

"I'm afraid that would have to wait for another time, as I see it, we both are late for class." He pushed his way past her and continued down the hallway toward the Potions classroom. He heard her laugh behind him.

"Just so you know it, your hair's turning grey old man!" She shouted amused after him before she walked of. Draco frowned and looked at his hair. He fumbled after his wand.

"Shit!"

Ginny had showed Aria around the castle after talked with madam Pomfrey who sternly told her to remember to go to the hospital wing when needed the potion. She claimed that it worked best when fresh. Aria had had a great time that day as they had the day of when Ginny showed where all the classrooms were. They soon decided to take a stroll around the grounds before lunch after Ginny had showed her the greenhouses. The sun was shining over the grounds and the September breeze played with their hair as they walked towards the lake. Ginny's long auburn hair and Aria's shorter and curlier, dark red. They walked in silence side by side, each respectively in their own thoughts. Aria was smiling to herself. She felt so happy right now, she had a new friend by her side, it was a whole new beginning to be here and the professors had let her skip a grade in some classes. She was now taking the 7th year subjects Potions, Transfiguration and Defence against the Dark Arts. And, she stifled a small laugh; Ginny was transferred up in those two as well, though she didn't know it yet. Life was brilliant sometimes. She pursed her lips; she could have moved up in all classes if she wanted, that was the downside of Beauxbatons, you learn too much for your age. But Aria had the strangest ability to "sneak-peak" if you want call it that, she merrily "checked" things up. So when she was up in the headmistress office earlier she saw the list that Ginny Weasley was going to be transferred in as well. Aria decided quickly that after she had been up to visit Ginny she wouldn't know anyone else from her house later on so she narrowed it down to the ones Ginny were going to have. Maybe they would become friends, if not; she could always tell Minerva that she changed her mind. She thought that the head-mistress had understood that because she had had a small tint of knowledge in her eyes. She knew that Ginny should be delivered an owl by breakfast tomorrow with the news.

Aria turned her attention back to the lake. It really was beautiful, the sunset throwing of it's reflection on the surface making the lake a shining twin to the sky above it. Aria noticed that Ginny was regarding her curiously.
"I know I'm beautiful but you'll burn two holes in me if you keep staring." She smiled and looked at Ginny. Ginny blinked and smiled back arching her eyebrows.

"What?" Aria asked.

"Nothing, sorry just me thinking you sound like someone I truly despise!."

"Apology accepted. Is this someone handsome?"
"Look it's that! Urgh, you remind me of Malfoy when you do that." Ginny snorted. Aria looked surprised.

"Who's 'Melfoy'?" Ginny giggled and then rolled her eyes.

"Wouldn't want him to hear you say that!" She giggled then heaved a sigh. Aria thought she saw some grieving in her eyes before she continued.

"Draco Malfoy is the most, arrogant, stuck-up know-it-all, filthy rich, bloody person on this school. He is awful! He constantly bullies people, insults them and constantly has his 'bodyguards' Crabbe and Goyle, with him everywhere to beat up anyone who doesn't agree with his opinion. He's a part of one of the last living Purebloods family's alive and his dad lives for bribing the ministry. Girls 'Swoon' over him and then he uses them for a good shag!" Ginny was really worked up now, she pacing and kicking away leafs as she did. Aria stared at Ginny, not actually understanding the information she gave her. She held up her hand and stopped Ginny.

"So, is he a good guy or a bad guy?"

"He is definitely a bad guy! He's the crowned Prince of Slytherin, for heavens sake!" Ginny burst out.

"Don't forget to mention my dashing good looks." A smooth male voice drawled. Ginny turned around and glared at the speaker.

"Speaking of the devil…" Ginny muttered darkly.

"I just loved you knickers Weaslette, what colour was them, green?"

"Oh, sod of Ferret!" She said annoyed and blushed. Aria stared at the boy. He was rather tall, taller then her she could see that. He had a pointed face with an amused expression plastered over his face though his Stormy-grey eyes were dancing with fire. His platinum-blonde hair reflected the dying sun. Aria would probably think he was attractive if she didn't stand over those things. Though she could see why Ginny said that girls "swooned" over him. She somehow recognized him from somewhere. The boy raised his eyebrows and looked in her eyes before turning to Ginny once more. Aha! It's him!

"Grown a backbone have we?" He smirked. Ginny snorted and crossed her arms.

"Watch it Malfoy! The Auror's might come back to get you." Draco's face flashed with anger. And Ginny hold her chin high.

"Watch your mouth Weasel!"

"Why don't you shove one of the new brooms daddy bought you up your ass?!" Draco's face darkened.

"Really!" The distance closed in between them.

"Yeah! Where are your gooms Malfoy? Couldn't find their way out of the castle?" Ginny mocked him. They drew their wands. Aria looked terrified at Ginny and then at this, Draco boy. She shook her head and decided to get in before it got nasty; she had the upper hand after all. She stepped forward and drew herself up, almost matching the Malfoy boy's height. He stared confused at her first but then it fell back to the angry face he had to begin with.

"Hey, stop it you two! You act like children!" Aria shouted and waved with her arms in between the couple.
"Stay out of this Aria!" Ginny's voice was dangerously low. The Malfoy kid jerked his head annoyingly.

"Yeah listen to Weaslette, don't stick your pretty nose where it doesn't belong." He moved his hand in a shooing gesture. Aria shook her head.

"Really, this is just childish! I won't move until you both have put away your wands!" She crossed her arms over her chest and stood her ground. Ginny glared at her and Draco mirrored the expression, both looked like they were struck by lightning and it was all her fault. She hid a smile. She then jumped when she felt a hand that gently squeezed her arm.

"Really mate, listen to her, she have a point. We don't want the teacher' to find us like this?" Three pairs of eyes snatched up to the speaker, Aria turning around so startled that she tripped and fell over. She braced herself for the impact but before she touched the ground a pair of strong arms caught her around the waist and helped her up again. Aria blushed, not much, she had the blessing of not showing of her embarrassment as much as others, but you could still se fragments of it working up her neck. She dusted of her clothes and peered at the boy. He had dark olive skin and dark messy hair.

"Well, thank you dear knight!" She tried to shake of the blush with a cheerful tone and looked up in the dark-blue eyes that were glittering with amusement. She stared. Wow… Aria had quite an obsession with eye colour and these pair of eyes had caught her attention. He grinned and swept her to her feet.

"To you service, m'lady." He bowed and took her hand and brushed his lips to the skin. "Blaise Zabini to your service, and who might you be? I haven't seen you around here before?" Aria smiled as well and cocked her head and she shuddered when he kissed her hand.

"Arianna Partana. A pleasure to meet such a gentleman Mr. Zabini. And no, you wouldn't have seen me around, I arrived yesterday." She raised her eyebrows and winked. She took her hand back form his grasp and turned back to Ginny and Draco. Blaise eyes twinkled with amusement as he grinned widely and also turned to face the two strugglers. Ginny and Draco were staring at their friends respectively.

"Really mate, you should've learned by now that duels should be where no one sees you!" Zabini's drawled bored. Aria nodded to his words and motioned toward Draco Malfoy and stretched out her hand. She smiled disarmingly.

"Don't think we were introduced properly before, even though I've heard a bit charming things about you since then, it never beats the real thing. Arianna Partana."

Ginny stared at Aria when Zabini interrupted and flirted with her, because it was obvious that was what it was, and her eyes widened when she flirted back! She became even more chocked when Malfoy stopped his misbelieved staring at Blaise and grasped Aria's hand. Ginny had to blink, did she see right? And had they met before? This was to confusing for Ginny to coop with. She glanced at Zabini, he looked as confused as her, but he hid it better then her. Only his eyebrows betraying him, they were almost up in his carbon-black hair.

"Draco Malfoy." Malfoy shook Aria's hand. "Don't believe rumours, they can always be…" He throwed a glance at Ginny. "… deceiving." Ginny noticed the smirk growing in the corners of his mouth. He let Aria's hand go. She noticed how Aria winked to her behind his back. She gaped back. Somehow had Aria successfully made Draco forget that he was about to hex Ginny into oblivion, and unintentionally manage to flirt with Hogwarts prince Charming. Ginny put her wand back in her robes, she still held a cautious eye on Ferret boy, he didn't like him before and she didn't like him better now. Draco turned his back against her as he continued to speak to Aria.

"I'm sorry for my rude behaviour this morning but I was desperate." He said and smirked. Aria laughed a silver laugh.

"Yeah, sure. If you want to call it that, then ok for me!" She winked and Malfoy looked uncomfortable. Ginny narrowed her eyes. What is going on? Aria stretched out a hand and took a few strands of his hair in her hand. Malfoy looked at her suspiciously and Aria laughed once more, grinning wide.

"I see your hair is a more, ah how shall I put it? Younger colour?" She let him go and then turned to Ginny, leaving a blushing Malfoy behind her. Ginny stifled a giggle. Aria was good! Blaise apparently thought the same as his shoulders were shaking with suppressed laughter. Aria stretched out her hand against Ginny and she grabbed it.

"Come darling, or else we'll get late for lunch." Aria drawled and turned to give a quick wink to Blaise before dragging Ginny with her toward the castle, leaving an embarrassed Malfoy and a grinning Zabini behind them. Ginny turned and poked out her tongue at them before she followed Aria. When they were without reach for the boys Ginny stopped.

"Now what was that about!?" She crossed her arms over her chest and Aria sighed and sat down on a rock.

"What do you mean? About Draco?" Ginny sat down beside her.

"No I mean the lovely recipe on Pumpkin pie we were discussing before they interrupt..." She said sarcastic. Aria rolled her eyes.

"Well, before I came up too se you this morning I was walking down toward transfiguration. And it was so many people all storming around and I didn't know where to go…"

"You walked down to get to transfiguration? It's just two corridors to the left from the common room!" Aria's face light up.

"Aha! That was why I didn't found the classroom! I have a terrible sense for directions… Luckily Minerva found me and told me to walk up to see you instead. Well anyway, I was just outside the Great hall when some moron bumped into me so I dropped my bag! A whole bottle of ink destroyed for nothing! And it was then I felt something prickle in my neck, and I looked in the direction of the feeling and in a dark corner stood Draco staring at me like I was some sort of freak!" Ginny started to giggle and shoved her hand in her mouth to stop it. "I got angry as I already was late and told him to stop stare. He then came out and looked like a scared rabbit and suddenly he pulled me in the corner and kissed me!" Her voice rising without difficulty. Ginny was giggling like a maniac now, she couldn't help it, the sound of it was just so, impossible/

"You're kidding me!" You can't actually mean that!" But Aria nodded gravely.

"It's true! Then he walked of without explaining. Though he did look around before he went." She added with a thought. Ginny looked curiously on her when she suddenly remembered something.

"What about the hair?" Aria started to giggle to.

"He hadn't blonde hair that morning, it was all brown! And when he walked away the brown melted away and he looked like he had grey hair!" Now the both girl was giggling uncontrollable, they looked like they were small kids, not 16 year olds. They probably sat there half an hour laughing at the pictures Aria's explaniation conjured up in their head. After a while Ginny looked at her Wiz-watch. The muggle ones didn't work on Hogwarts grounds so her mum had dug deep in their savings and bought her a Wiz-watch. They were expensive but they were worth it.

"It's time for lunch now." She offered her arm. "Oh m'lady let your brave knight escort you to the castle." Aria punched her on the arm.

"Stop, it was nothing like that!"

"Didn't look like that…"

"Do you want to hang upside down again Ginevra?"

"Ah, no. I've had enough excitement for today actually."

I only want to share to others who might think they like them to. So from now on, I'm never going to ask anyone to review. You have a choice and I'm not pushing you… So, if the sentimental crap that is basically written to make you feel bad and review more is done, I'll remind you of the purple button down in the left corner.
