Disclaimer: I don't and will never own Harry Potter no matter how badly I want to.
A/N: I added a bit to chapter 5 so I suggest going back and reading that chapter again.
Harry and Ginny sat next to each other on one side of the table with Draco and Hermione on the other side. Hermione continued to spill out facts about Hogwarts she learned from Hogwarts: A History. Draco continued to look like he was being stabbed.
Harry, that's Draco Malfoy! Malfoys always end up in Slytherin.
That's why he looks so depressed!
Yes! He'll probably be disowned. He's a pureblood; his family sided with Voldemort during the war!
He could be different. We should talk with him and…
Hermione, she seems like a nice girl, a bit talkative but I think she's just nervous.
Ok
"So Hermione, what classes are you most interested in Harry and I am looking forward to DADA and Transfiguration."
"I'm excited for them all! I've already read through all of the books we have and some other books my parents got me."

Draco's POV
I'm dead! I'm sitting here as a dead man! My father will kill me! Disown me at the very least. At least I wasn't put in Gryffindor. It's well known that Rowena and Salazar was a couple so I have that working in my favor. To top it all off I'm sitting with a Weasley, Potter, and a Muggleborn! But they're not bad like father says. Their smarter and friendly than the kids, father had me hang out with.
And the muggleborn is intelligent far more intelligent than father says they could be and she's kind of cute. Wait did I just think that? She's a muggleborn, a dirty mudblood in my father's eyes, but I'm already dead so why not be friendly with mudbloods, blood traitors, and Harry Potter.
"Hi, Draco Malfoy" I said trying to be social but finding myself at a lack of intelligent words.
"Hi, I'm Hermione Granger and this is Ginny and Harry. We were talking about which classes we were excited about, what are you looking forward to?" Asked Hermione
"I guess I'm most excited for Transfiguration and Charms but my father told me that Potions is the only good class but I think it's because the professor is head of Slytherin."
"Why would it matter if he's the head of Slytherin to be a good teacher?" Hermione asked clearly unaware of the Noble House of Malfoy and most likely any wizarding families.
"My entire family with the exception of a few outcasts on my mother's side was a Slytherin which is why they would care about the Head of Slytherin." I say with a little bit of difficult
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know" Hermione said clearly figuring everything out.

Ginny/Harry's POV
I guess he's not that bad. I feel bad for him daddy says that Lucious Malfoy is one of the worst people out there.
I feel bad for him too but the only thing we can do for him Gin is to be there for him. If I didn't have you, I don't know how I would have survived living with the Dursleys.
Those bloody muggles are as bad as Draco's father. You're not going to go back to that place next summer I won't have it. Even if I have to convince Dumbledore myself, you will not go back to that horrible place.
Gin, calm down. It's the first day of school, summer is a long time away. When the time does come I'm sure you can convince anyone with your temper and if you can't I'll just live in Potter Manor. We weren't looking for the portkey before that's why we didn't find it.
Ginny was about to respond to him when suddenly his hand went to his head from a sharp pain. As soon as it came though it left the moment Ginny grabbed Harry's hand.
Harry, what was that?
I don't know Ginny.
That was the end of that conversation as Dumbledore declared the feast was over and that prefects lead the first years to their dorms. The Ravenclaw first years were led to their common room by a fifth year prefect by the name of Penelope Clearwater. To their surprise in order to get into the Common Room you have to answer a riddle.
The man who invented it doesn't want it. The man who bought it doesn't need it. The man who needs it doesn't know it. What is it?
Penelope quickly answered the question with a coffin and they entered the common room. It was blue and bronze all over, the ceiling was the night sky and there were couches, chairs, and bookshelves throughout the room. They were led to different sides of the room and were told that it was the boy/girl dorms.
Harry, the sorting hat said that there was some sort of room that would solve our problem. We have to find it soon cause I want a good night sleep for classes tomorrow.
Ok, Gin but do you have any clue where the room is or how to get in?
No but I'm sure we can find it.
After looking for an hour they sat down on one of the coaches and starred at the wall in front of them. They saw something that they were drawn to, a ruby, sapphire, emerald, and topaz moving in a circle. They went over to it and touched the emerald and ruby. The gems acted like a portkey and they appeared in a beautiful a room similar to the common room but smaller.
"Welcome bonded pair I am Rowena Ravenclaw." They turned towards the voice and saw a portrait of the founder of their house.
"Um, Hello, I'm Harry and this is Ginny." Harry said a little confused
"Don't be afraid, young ones; I am simply here to help you. I too had a soul bond and made sure that each house had equipped a room similar to this that only bonded pairs would be able to find. No one knows of these rooms including the Headmaster. The only other founder I told was Salazar."
"Can I make a guess at who your bond mate was?" Ginny asked
"If you want you can guess."
"It was Salazar Slytherin, right?"
"Yes, it was. He wasn't the bad guy everyone makes him out to be. He cared for those around him. The world needed a villain and Salazar was the scapegoat. He could speak parseltongue which is considered dark magic which it is not. It's a gift that I was lucky enough to share with him. But enough about that you two must be tired. Goodnight." With her last words the portrait became still.
Harry and Ginny looked around the living room and headed towards some stairs. The stairs led to a master bedroom with a bathroom attached to it. After getting ready the two climbed into the king size bed unaware of what the future would bring to them.
Goodnight Ginny
Goodnight Harry
Harry and Ginny went into a peaceful sleep dreaming of what the future may bring to them.
