Updating! I should really update my sisters grimm one too…but I'm still searching for my usb! *sigh* Hey is anyone watching the tennis? I can't believe number 1 and 2 are OUT! Federra! Nadal! NOOOOOO! Ah well…back to the world of words….

"Ron! What are you doing? Blondie put your stick away!" Draco snarled at Ron when he started to say something…probably a hex, and jumped on the tall ginger haired boy. "Hey! Stop that! Stop it you Knuckleheads!" I was in such a fury at the two idiots that I completely forgot my desire to see Blondie. "Gluteus Stick!" I wasn't really sure what I had said, all I knew was that I wanted them to quit fighting. Once I was convinced they had stopped I carefully watched their faces…blood red, with indignity, shame and mortification. Ah such a lovely combination. "And you'll stay like that until I think it is appropriate."

"Bloody hell we will Marina. Get Malfoy's arse OFF mine! This is revolting!" Draco looked like he was about to blow but took me by surprise when he suddenly smirked.

"It's going to be really hard making you faint if we're stuck like this you know." Suddenly my face was redder than his had been…tch…dirty player.

"I KNEW IT! Marina get him OFF so I can finish HIM!" Draco's eyes flashed with worry when Ron started pelting him with back elbow blows…you know I think I'll let him get pummelled for a while.

"Stop it Weasel! I swear when my father hears about this-"

"Then go ahead and TELL your death eater of a father FERRET!" I froze where I stood and stared at Draco…he really was tied up with Voldemort…he wasn't just a Slytherin student seeking for dark deeds to fulfil…oh crap.

"Ron…that's a major accusation. Stop-"

"Oh didn't you know Marina? Your little friend here's daddy is You-Know-Who's little house elf" Draco's eye grew wide with fury and it was suddenly Ron's turn to get pummelled with rage-filled blows.

"STOP IT! Gluteus Fid!" With a rip they separated from each other. They didn't look too hurt but their pants on the other hand…"Oh my Gosh! I'm so sorry! I didn't think…I didn't…I'm- " They both got up slowly and gently rubbed their backsides that were sure to be in utmost pain.

"You know what Eve…I'll see you in class." …Oh man…he was back to calling me by my last name now…perfect!

"Don't go near him Marina…or put ME near him…that git is mental!" And Ron was telling me to be away from him. "And Marina?" I looked up in shame trying not to glance too much at his ripped pants.

"Yeah Ron?"

"Please don't tell Harry or Hermione about this…or anyone! Especially if they have 'Weasley' as their last name!" I laughed softly.

"Sure Ron…I am sorry. Do you want me to fix it? Before you know…everyone else sees your orange hearted undies." His face broke into a furious shade of red…that I didn't know was possible.

"Ye-Yeah…you saw?" I bit my lip to hide an indecent giggle and decided to nod once for fear of my mouth giving me away. His voice became squeaky and I thought there was a shrill whistle sounding nearby "Oh…" He coughed once and put on his best deep, manly voice…"Oh." My lips were giving way…it was coming, there was no way to stop it…In less than a minute I started laughing…and laughing…and laughing.

"Oh Ron, your expression!" I stopped laughing immediately when he started to glare at me…haha…okay.

"Marina…"

"Yeah?"

"Shut it."

"Gotcha."

As he stalked off out of the room I hurried to catch up. We walked in silence and then I realised something.

"Ron?"

"Didn't I ask you to be quiet?"

"But Ron…"

"MARINA!"

"Fine…but I tried to warn you." He pivoted around to face me looking rather mad.

"Oi Weasley! Get some better boxers to flash man!" I didn't laugh this time, without his consent I fixed his pants up and gave the rude Ravenclaw a creepy smile.

"Watch out Justin! Or you'll have to work out that spell yourself." He froze and ran for it shouting something rather biased and unruly.

"Get away from me snake!" I stuck my tongue out at his retreating figure and marched on with Ron. He was smiling at me now, grateful for my interference.

"So I hear tonight's feast is going to be good…and I think we have a lesson with you snakes coming up next!" I laughed with him at his poor joke…well that's one person out of two who's happy.

"Hey Ron…I'll see you in Potions next okay? I have to run and grab some books first." He gave a short nod and farewell before departing and when I was sure he wasn't looking I sprinted. On the way to the common rooms I slammed into an unforseen solid object…a person.

"I'm so sorry! Are you okay?" I slowly got up from the floor and faced my victim with a very apologetic smile.

"No…and you should be, for a LOT of things." I blinked as Blondie's face came into focus…of course it was him. Of ALL the Slytherins I had to bang into, it had to be him. I mean…where was everyone else!

"What exactly are you referring to? Saving you from getting pummelled by my red haired enthusiast of a friend or from keeping you out of detention?" I glared at him, there was no way I could have wanted to kiss this thing…absolutely NO way. Sure I made a few stuff ups here and there but he was NOT being fair.

"You know…I think I need some compensation. My dignity craves for something to restore it." Oh…of course he'd ignore me…that pompous little ferret…hmm...a ferret. "Do you have any idea on what you could give me?" He was smirking…the ferret was smirking!

"A black eye? Maybe kidney stones!" I was gritting my teeth in case I yelled at him too loudly. What on earth was he playing at…and I have to get my books too…oh man!

"Funny…no I was thinking about trying to make you faint again." To my aggravation I blushed despite myself…stupid rodent. "Oh? Maybe you'd like that too would you?"

"You know I'd really like to get to class on time so if you wouldn't mind…LET ME THROUGH!" I side stepped him as he stood there looking kind of shocked. I rushed through the open doors that a first year had unlocked and ran to my room to get what I needed. Books…cauldron…ingredients…check! Okay…that's it! As I headed out of the room I saw Pansy, an admirer of the ferret talking with my roommate, a girl called Felicia. "Hey guys! What's going on? Are you heading to potions?" They turned towards me in surprise and their conversation stopped completely.

"Marina! You're out of the infirmary?" Pansy started the drilling of questions and Felicia continued…

"What happened? You haven't even been to a single class yet!"

"Yes, and if we don't hurry that might still be the case…" they jumped when they looked at the serpent time piece…ah the blasted clock that just HAD to tell an unfeeling truth…*sigh*.

"Right. Let's run shall we?" I led the way though I had no idea where I was headed. I stopped outside the door when I'd realised this and turned to Pansy and Felicia and motioned them to take the lead instead. Potions was apparently taught by a man named, Severus Snape. He was the head teacher of Slytherin but according to Harry and Ron he was an arse just waiting to get kicked…Gryffindors and Slytherins are so biased and against each other…I wonder if it's really possible to be part of both…well I was going to try either way.

All three of us rushed in to Potions and to our relief the class hadn't started yet…we still had a minute or two I estimated. I went to the back of what I'd like to call the dungeon to put away my cauldron and potions kit and then grabbed the text book that I'd carried in the cauldron. I then scanned the room searching for three familiar Gryffindors and when I saw them walked over. They smiled when they noticed me and I took a seat besides Harry and Hermione. A hush fell over the room…I thought it was because the teacher had arrived but to my surprise he wasn't there. I was confused when I saw Hermione, Harry and Ron's faces…so irritated and upset, why?

"Oi Eve! In case you hadn't noticed, that green emblem means you're in Slytherin." I scowled at the Blonde Ferret and then turned sharply to the front. "You should know where your loyalties lie!" A strong feeling erupted at the soul of me and I snapped right back at Ferret.

"My loyalties lie with my friends Malfoy, are you one of them?" he turned pink at my reply but I really didn't care anymore…gawsh my first kiss stolen by a dark wizard, my second kiss given to a stupid blonde Ferret. I'm hoping that my third one will be to someone at least a bit more appealing and not a complete phsyco…I'll just have to tell Albus I'm in no mood to talk to the git he calls a person. Murmurs started to rumble throughout the seats around us and one of the nice Gryffindors I'd met on the train, Neville even congratulated me.

"That was amazing Marina!" I gave him a sheepish smile but slowly glanced at the other side at some disapproving faces. Pansy and Felicia looked at me weirdly too…like they were trying to work something out. I smiled at them and they looked taken aback, giving me a hesitant smile in reply. I nodded once and again looked to the front. The murmurs hushed and this time it WAS because of the teacher. Severus was skinny, had a hook nose and very greasy black hair…a scowl was set on his lips like it could never take the shape of another figure again. I felt a small cold shiver run down my spine and my arm with the grotesque tattoo began to burn. I instinctively clasped on to it and pulled down the sleeve to make sure it was utterly hidden.

"Marina are you okay?" I nodded quickly at Hermione before we could get caught by the teacher's eagle eyes.

"I'll insist you stop Miss. Granger. 10 points from Gryffindor for talking inappropriately! And who were you talking with? Another 10 points from Gryffindor I think." There were a few outbursts on the Gryffindor side as Slytherin started to roar with laughter.

"Um…sir. Actually I'm in Slytherin." The potions master peered closer at my robes and his scowl became more prominent if that were even possible.

"Oh so NOW you're a Slytherin are you Eve?" I flicked to the Ferret and had a shot at giving him a menacing glare…honestly I never could pull it off that well but I was going to try. He lifted an eyebrow in my direction and I voted to have a yelling session with him at lunch time. Speaking of which…I'm starving! I haven't had breakfast yet so that's probably why I mused to myself.

"I'll take back the 10 points from Gryffindor then…" I looked carefully at Professor Snape, he didn't seem too pleased at the events. "But if one more of you empty-headed idiots speak I will send you straight off to Professor Mcgonagall to personally explain why half her houses' points are diminished." I could see Harry tensing his hands into tight fists and knew at once it was a little more than a Slytherin and Gryffindor house rivalry that made him dislike the man.

"Greasy haired Git." I winced praying that the Professor hadn't heard. And with that prayer, the lesson began.

I involuntarily began glancing at the Slytherin section of the room, occasionally glancing at the blonde Ferret now and then…I wonder what he's thinking about. I shook that thought straight out of my head and returned to the work set by our teacher. I felt someone staring at me and had a creepy suspicion that it was Professor Snape. I looked up and stared straight at him…was he trying to use occlemency? I steeled my mind and put my emotions away…kind of like in a drama class I took when I was little…be a vessel for the characters…have no shame and no emotions!

"Miss. Eve, are you quite done with your task or is there another reason you're staring at me." One of my eyebrows lifted ever so slightly…yeah because I'd be staring at him as if he were eye candy…

"No…I'm done, I just had a little trouble with this one question and was wondering if you were free enough to help." If you weren't too busy trying to invade my privacy more like…

I could see the corners of his mouth flickering into an upward position but then it returned to its natural scowl.

"If you must, you can see me at lunch time at my office for assistance." I gave him a curt nod and then muttered a curse under my breath at him…no not a magical one just an ordinary muggle school kid one.

"Marina…what did he do?" I knew I could trust Hermione but I really didn't want to tell her right close to Harry and Ron…two people who wouldn't hesitate to retaliate for the slightest thing if it concerned a Slytherin. I mouthed the reply near her ear so only she could hear and watched carefully as she tried to compose her shocked expression.

"That's horrible!" I nodded wearily and started to pack away my things as the bell sounded.

"It's good I'm ace at blocking unwanted things!" I tried to keep the mood cheerful as everyone rushed out of the room. Two figures remained in the class…both staring at me. A black haired man…and a blonde haired boy. Death Eaters…my followers…your kin… It was the voice…the voice in my dreams…I ran.

How's that so far? SHE's ACTUALLY IN A CLASS! Whoot! XD Hope you liked it guys! Please review
