"So you and Draco are going to be in the team this year right?" Theo asked Draco just nodded his head while I fed Midnight
"so will you have to go through the tryouts?" Blaise asked
"no, since only those two spots had to be filled and they already have me and Draco they aren't going to do any tryouts"
"that's cool"

our first class was herbology, the one subject I hate.
"Good morning, everyone" Professor Sprout shouts, there is nothing good about this morning
"Welcome to Greenhouse Three, second years. Now, gather around, everyone. Today, we're going to report Mandrakes. Who here can tell me the properties of the Mandrake root? " The ugly squirrel raises her hand
"Yes, Miss Granger."
"Mandrake, or Mandragora, is used to return those who have been petrified to their original state. It's also quite dangerous. The Mandrake's cry is fatal to anyone who hears it." all I hear is blah blah blah
"Excellent, ten points to Gryffindor! Now, as our Mandrakes are still only seedlings, their cries won't kill you yet, but they could knock you out for several hours, which is why I've given each of you a pair of earmuffs for auditory protection, so if you could please put them on right away." the students start putting them on
"Quickly, flaps tight down. Now, watch me closely. You grasp your Mandrake firmly, you pull it sharply up out of the pot. Got it? And now you dunk it down into the other pot and pour a little sprinkling of soil to keep him warm." Neville falls to the floor
"Longbottom's been neglecting his earmuffs." the professor asks
Draco was playing with his plant causing it to bite his finger, seeing that I laughed causing him to send me glairs. this day just might not be as bad.

later that day we were sitting in the grate hall when Cedric came and sat next to me.
"Did I ever tell you how much I enjoyed it when u put that leash on that girl?" Cedric says resting his head on my shoulders
"I don't want to know about your fantasies Ced, if you want to tell someone I'm sure Blaise will be more than happy to listen to what you fantasise about"
"That's not what I meant! i mean those were fun times, now I have nothing to do"
" so you come here to bother me?"
"well I'd be bothering you if you were doing something "
"Well, you see unlike you I have been given a lot of homework" As I say that ced snatches my papers from my hands.
"herbology, love herbology, if you don't mind can I-"
"yes, please! do all my herbology woke for the year!" my outburst caused Ced to laugh
"Only if you do my potions"
"done!"
"hey, not fair! do my herbology to I'll do your charms" Draco complained
"sorry can't do"
"ugh, this isn't fair!!"
"you can take me after Ced is done with it now not stop being a baby"
"I'm not being a ba-"
" Look, everyone, Weasley's got himself a Howler." someone from the gryffindork table yelled.
"Go on, Ron. I ignored one from my Gran once. It was horrible" Longbottom says
"RONALD WEASLEY! HOW DARE YOU STEAL THAT CAR! I AM ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED! YOUR FATHER'S NOW FACING AN INQUIRY AT WORK, AND IT'S ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT! IF YOU PUT ANOTHER TOE OUT OF LINE, WE'LL BRING YOU STRAIGHT HOME!" it then turns to face Weasel Jr.
"Oh, and Ginny dear, congratulations on making Gryffindor. Your father and I are so proud"
"See now this is what I was talking about" Cedric says before laughing
"How are you in Hufflepuff"? Theo asked,
"Did you bribe that stupid hat?" Blaise inquires
"I'm just kinder that you'll, and while I let my 'evil side' show you lot just hide it behind those silver tongues," Ced explains
"how do you know we have silver tongues?" Blaise smirked raising a brow.
"Don't be disgusting Blaise" Dhapne rolled her eyes
----------
we had our first DADA today I was so looking forward to it, I knew Lockheart was going to end up making a fool of himself. The man thought of himself as Blaise Zabini trying to calm everybody with that ugly smile of his, I just don't see what girls see in him he is just a babbling baboon.
"Let me introduce you to your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher: me, Gilderoy Lockhart, Order of Merlin, Third Class, Honorary Member of the Dark Force Defense League, and five-time winner... of Witch Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award. But I don't talk about that. I didn't get rid of the Bandon Banshee by smiling at him". like I said a babbling baboon.
"I see you've all bought a complete set of my books, well done. Now, I thought we'd start today with. a little quiz. Nothing to worry about, just to check how well you've read them." I look at the test.
"This has to be some kind of a joke, maybe I'm stuck in a nightmare!?" Draco laughs from beside me.
"that would have been better, a sip of dreamless night would have done it" This caused me to let out a sigh.
"Not that I'm not glad but how come you not swooning in front of him like every other girl?"
"I just don't get what these girls see in him, when I look at him all I see is a wanna-be Blaise"
"tut, tut, hardly any of you remembered that my favourite colour is lilac. But Miss Hermione Granger knew that my secret ambition is to rid the world of evil and market my own range of hair care potions. Good girl."
" that has to be justified as sexual harassment " Blaise just laughed at me
"finding amusement in my misery now are you Zabibi?"
"what no not at all"
"Now, be warned! It is my job to arm you against the foulest creatures known to wizardkind. [taps a covered-up cage, causing it to shake] You may find yourselves facing your worst fears in this room. Know only that no harm can befall you whilst I am here. I must ask you not to scream, it might... PROVOKE THEM" As soon as the pixes were let out they started causing a ruckus, Draco covered me while Theo covered Daphne, but we had to do something, looking back I saw Blaise fighting a pixie with a book, running I gut out from under Dracos robs and lifted my wand
"Immobulus"
"wonderful ms Salvatore, 10 pints to Slytherin" Like I said a baboon.
---------
we were headed to our first quidditch practice as a team when Wood stopped us.
"Where do you think you're going, Flint?"
"Quidditch practice"
"I booked the pitch for Gryffindor today."
"Easy, Wood. I've got a note." Marcus handed Wood the note
" 'I, Professor Severus Snape, do hereby give the Slytherin team permission to practice today, owing to the need to train their new Seeker.' You've got a new Seeker, who?" the team parts in the middle to show Draco and I
"Malfoy and Salvatore?"
"That's right. And that's not all that's new this year" Draco says showing off our new brooms
"Those are Nimbus 2001s. How did you get those?"
"A gift from Draco's father," Marcus says as if staying the obvious
"You see, Weasley, unlike some, my father can afford the best."
"At least no one on the Gryffindor team had to buy their way in. They got in on pure talent." that little bitch.
"Please you know nothing about talent, pathetic potter here don't get in because he has talent he got in because people pity him that his parents died, that's it he has no talent all he is is a pity party, and I see no talent in swallowing a snitch. And as for Draco and I we have been practising with Marcus and Ardian since last year, you see mudblood, we secured our spots last year but unlike Pity Party here we didn't have any rules bend or broken four us, we played by the rules, and as for Lucius's gift, it's his way to show his gratitude for training his son last year and because he can afford it. Now move" After finishing my angry rant I realised that Midnight had unlooped her head from my arm and now was hissing at the Gryfindorkes, she had never done anything like this before but before I could ask her what happened Weasel had stepped in front of me.
"You'll pay for that one, Snake" I lifted my hand that had midnight looped around it so that whatever spell Weasel would cast would reflect off of Midnight scale but Draco stepped in front of me lifting his hand in a sheeling manner. Thnak Mirlin that the Weasels wand was broken so it reflected on himself and now he was vomiting slugs.
Pathetic potter rushed him and the ugly squirrel to Hagrid's house if you can even call that thing a house. I turn towards Draco
"Why would you do that? what if his wand wasn't broken?" I shout at him
if it wasn't broken then the band you gave me would have reflected it onto him" he says showing me his hand that had the band on it
"You are wearing it? I didn't know, I also had my hand that had Midnight in it healed up" I saw showing off midnight.
"right that reminds me, midnight, why were you hissing at the Gryffindorks? not that I mind it but you have never done anything like that before"
"Itsssss your powerrrssss they arre getting sssstronger, becausssssse we arrre connected your emotionsss over took mineee"
"How is that possible?"
"I don't know" she said laying her head back down.
