The next morning, I woke up in the cold room, there was another bed, but nobody was using it, so I basically had the room all to myself. I looked at my wrist watch, I had for about two hours before my first class, I took a shower and did my make up as if I was back in Beauxbatons, I did my hair in a smooth, low bun and got dressed in my Slytherin robes, and adding finishing touches to my look with some French lavender perfume.

I left the dormitory and went to the Great Hall, Penelope was already there, sitting all alone, with nobody to talk to, just eating her breakfast, sad. I looked over all the tables in hopes to see my brother, he's in Hufflepuff, he looks so happy, I went over to his table, all the sixth years looked at me weirdly, I just politely smiled at all of them.

Once I was behind Francis I put my hands around his eyes, ''Devine qui.'' (Guess who) I said smiling, ''Y/N.'' he said excitedly and after turning around he hugged me. ''How are you?'' I asked as he pulled away. ''Great.'' He replied smiling, ''Alright, I'll see you later, little champ.'' I said as I ruffled his hair and went to the Slytherin table.

''Good morning.'' I said as I sat down between Penelope and Malfoy, ''Morning.'' Everybody replied except Riddle, of course. ''How are you feeling?'' I asked in a quieter voice to Penelope, ''Better.'' She replied and bit her toast, I nodded and took a toast for myself, I spread the perfect amount of butter with the butter knife on it and bit it as I closed my eyes.

''Delicious.'' I whispered to myself, I opened my eyes when I felt a hand on my thigh, I looked at Malfoy, who pretended that everything is fine and casually talked to his buddies, I took a fork from beside my plate and stabbed it in his hand, he yelped in pain and pulled his hand away, ''Why the fuck did you do that?'' he asked, he looked like he was about to cry, ''That is what perverts get.'' I replied and bit my toast again, the whole room got quiet.

''And if you touch a girl again without her consent, I will kill you.'' I whispered in his ear after I stood up. I left the Great hall and looked at the schedule Riddle gave me last night. 'Potions' I put the parchment away and went to the potions class.

I knocked on the door and went in, a sweet looking man was sitting by the teacher's desk, he looked up at me, ''Oh, good morning, you must be the new student, Miss Y/L/N, yes?'' he asked as he stood up, I went in to the class room smiling, ''Yes, it's a pleasure to meet you, Professor Slughorn.'' I said as I went up to him and shook his hand, ''I looked at your grades at potions from your last school and I am very impressed with your accomplishments.'' He said smiling, ''I actually wanted to give you this.'' He said and took out an envelope from his desk, ''I have a club, it's called the Slug club, the only participants are smart students with astonishing grades and large accomplishments, so this is your invitation to the slug club's meeting.'' He said as he gave me the envelope, ''I've heard of this before, you can only be in it if you are invited, correct?'' I asked as I looked at the envelope, ''Yes.'' He replied smiling, ''Well, it will be my pleasure to participate in your club, professor.'' I said as I bowed my head a bit, little sweet-talking always comes in handy with the professors.

There was a knock on the door and I turned my head to see who it was, ''Am I interrupting something?'' Riddle's voice asked as he came in, ''Oh of course not Tommy boy, come on right in, I'm sure you've met Miss Y/L/N here, she is the new member of the Slug club.'' Slughorn said as he clapped his hands together, did Slughorn just call Riddle 'Tommy boy'? The look on Tom's monotone face got harder, his jaw clenched and he radiated annoyance off of himself. ''I hope she fits right in, Professor.'' Tom said as he quickly relaxed and smiled at the professor, God, he's such a liar, ''Well, then please take your seats, class will start in 7 minutes.'' Slughorn said as he looked at his wrist watch, I went to the closest seat to the blackboard, Tom went to the farthest seat from me and I rolled my eyes.

The class stated filling with more people and Rachel came in, she sat down next to me, ''How are you? I heard what happened at breakfast with Malfoy, are you alright?'' she asked with raised eyebrows, ''Oh, yeah, I'm fine, he's just an idiot.'' I replied and ended the conversation.

The bell rang and I took out my notebook, with my black quill from my satchel, ''Good morning students, today is your first potion class, and I have assigned seats for all of you.'' He said as he picked up a piece of parchment from his desk, all of the students groaned and started whispering about who would they want to sit with, ''Alright, alright, quiet now, all of you will stand up and go to the seat I tell you to, alright?'' The professor said and all of the students stood up, I put my satchel on my shoulder and my notebook with the quill in my arms, I looked behind me, I saw Penelope with a blush on her cheeks, it is so easy to figure out what she is thinking about.

''Diggory with Malfoy, in the back corner.'' Slughorn started calling out names and showing the assigned seats, Rachel was seated with some guy from her house, ''Parkston with Lestrange, here.'' The Professor said and Penelope's shoulders slumped down and the blush left her cheeks.

Soon the only one's standing were me and Riddle, I looked at Slughorn, he was smiling, ''Please take your seats.'' He said as he looked between Riddle and me, rolling me eyes, I went to the only empty seats in the whole class, which were right in the middle of the room, once I sat down, I looked over my shoulder, Penelope was staring at Riddle, she looked deep in thought, probably imagining her and Riddle's wedding, or something stupid like that, I looked away when Riddle sat down next to me, and took out his quill and parchments.
