I don't own Harry Potter or Twilight unforutanely. I know it's a bummer.

I hope you like the story and tell me what you think!

"Oh my gosh. I shouldn't have had that last chicken leg." Ron burped out. The feast had been going on for 45 minutes and most of the students had had their fill. Ron was starting to turn seven shades of green due to his over indulgence. Harry, Hermione, and Allie laughed. The trio already thought of Allie as a friend and Allie felt the same about them.

"I think you should have probably stopped about five chicken legs ago, Ron." Allie laughed out which only caused the three of them to start laughing harder. Ron just sat there, glaring and getting greener. Their fun was interrupted by Professor Dumbledore standing behind the podium again.

"Now before we retire for the evening there is one more matter that needs to be addressed." Groans irrupted throughout the Great Hall. All the students wanted was another lecture about not going into the Forbidden Forrest.

Dumbledore skimmed the room with his eyes before continuing, "Hogwarts has been selected to host the Triwizard Tournament..."

Allie and Hermione left the Great Hall early and decided to head to Gryffindor Tower to claim the good beds before Lavender and Pavarti got there. From what Hermione said about those two Allie knew this was a good idea. Unlike most of the students, neither of the girls had any interest in the Triwizard Tournament or the girls from Beauxbatons, so the corridors were pretty deserted.

"So Allie," Hermione started, "What do you do for fun?" The girls rounded a corner and then started to head up a flight of stairs. Allie looked down at her feet and smiled before saying "I like to read and listen to music. I also really like movies, well muggle movies." Hermione stared at her companion.

"You like muggle movies? You must be a muggleborn then?

Allie thought about it for a minute and said with an edge of uncertainty, "Basically." She furrowed her brow at Hermione.

Confused as to why Allie was acting like that Hermione kept walking, when realization finally dawned on her and she understood. She thinks I'm like Malfoy. That I care about blood status. "Oh no its not like that!" Hermione blurted out. "I'm a muggleborn, too." Allie stopped walking. Hermione kept walking for a distance before coming to and abrupt halt and turned back to Allie. Allie walked up next to Hermione and gave her a half smile.

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have assumed... It's just at my old school blood status was more important than money and people would get very... weird when you told them you were a muggleborn."

Hermione placed a head on Allie's shoulder. "I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it's no different here. Not all of us care how "pure" your blood is but if you start asking the Slytherins they'll tell you a different story."

Allie laughed and the girls resumed walking toward the Common Room. "Yeah I figured that much."

Two flights of stairs and several corridors later, Allie and Hermione arrived at Gryffindor Tower. "I don't know how you can find anything in this school." Allie stated while looking around the red and gold clad common room, "I'm pretty sure Duchesne could have fit in the Great Hall"

Hermione shook her head. "You'll get used to it after a while and I know your old school wouldn't have fit in the Great Hall. I've seen pictures of it." Allie already knew Hermione and her would be close, maybe even be best friends. Ron and Harry were pretty cool, too. They seemed like a lot of fun. She would get along with them.

Harry... She had to talk to him, but she didn't know how to tell him what he needed to know. She was never that good at saying what she meant. Everything always came out wrong. Word vomit. That's what it was. She wouldn't tell him tonight, that would be too soon. She needed to let him get to know her, let him trust her in his own time.

Yeah I should wait a few weeks before completely changing everything he's ever know. Thats a good idea, Allie, break it too him easily. Allie didn't want to tell Harry, what was the point? Everything is fine without there being another... well without me. But Dumbledore insists, so who am I to go against one of the best wizards of all time?

"Allie?" Hermione said from the staircase leading up to the dorm rooms, a look of concern etched her face. "Everything OK?"

"Yeah everything's fine. Just taking it all in"

"Well you want to check out the room?" Hermione responded.

"Sounds good" Allie said with gleaming grin.

The girls headed up stairs to see that their trucks had already been brought up. They picked the two beds closest to the windows and each other. They unpacked their things in silence.

"Hey Allie?" Allie turned around to see Hermione looking at her.

"Yes Hermione?"

"I was wondering what you meant when you said that you were 'basically' a muggleborn."

Allie stared at Hermione for a minute. She didn't know what to tell her, what she was allowed to tell her. She didn't want to lie but she didn't think the truth would cut it either. So she came to decision that she would tell her neither.

"I'll tell ya later, Hermione" She turned back to her things and started to unpack some more.
