Why me?

I throw the letter off to the side, my parents would not be pleased if they heard I chose to be in Ravenclaw instead of Slytherin. I get out of bed and put on my uniform and my robes with the Ravenclaw crest. I notice the sun is coming up, maybe I should head to the Great Hall for breakfast. I look at my roommates sleeping and wonder what would happen if they woke up on the roof.... I like pranks and making jokes like that. That was kind of why I left Beaubaxtons. As I entered the Great Hall, I noticed there were only two other people in there. A small Hufflepuff girl and a pale blond Slytherin boy. And... I'm going back to my room. "Price!" I hear behind me, Draco was gesturing for me to go sit with him. There was a professor present, so I guess he shouldn't try anything funny. I slowly walk over and sit next to him, making sure there two seats between us. Draco scoots closer, one seat, and asks "How are you, Jennifer?". I turn and glare at him "Never call me Jennifer or I will kill you where you sit". I actually see a bit of fear on his eyes before he composes himself and replies "As you wish, Miss Price." I see a small smirk on his face and begin to leave, when I feel an arm pull me back down. "What the hell, Malfoy?" I angrily ask, pulling my arm away. "Sorry, I just really wanted to talk to you about something, and since nobody's around, I don't have to worry about being overheard." Draco looks generally scared. This is weird. "Ok. Well what did you want to talk about?" I ask him. He gives a small sigh and says "Look Price, I think we got off on the wrong foot. I would just like to.... apologize is the word, yes?" I nodded slowly, "Apologize about my behavior and ask if there was a possibility we could be friends." I think he's being serious.. What do I say? "Well Draco, I appreciate your apology and I guess I apologize for my flipping you off and whatnot. I'll be your friend, only if you say 'Jen Price is the best and I am a loser'" I smile at him mischievously. I see a small smile on his face as he sighs, "Jen Price is the best and I am a loser". I smile at him, maybe he's not that bad of a guy after all. "Hey Jen!" I hear behind me, Harry is walking in with Ron and Hermione. I wave at them and then back to Draco, who now has a dark scowl on his face. Oh yeah, he and Harry have this weird rivalry. Maybe befriending Draco was a bad idea. I turn back to Harry who is gesturing for me to join him at the Gryffindor table. I look at Draco, and he gives me a small nod before I smile at him and run over to Harry's table. As I approach the table, I notice a smug look on Harry's face when he looks behind me at Draco. I sit down and begin to eat, as Hermione and Ron look at me on confusion. I look up at them, "What? Is there something on my face?" I ask them. Ron starts laughing and replies "no, it's just we we're kind of confused as to why you we're talking to Draco just now." I see Harry's expression darken a little when Ron says his name, what do I say so Harry doesn't murder everybody? "I was just asking him for potions notes. We're partners in Snape's class" I explain. I notice Harry starts to smile a little when I say that and continue my eating. As the professors dismiss us for class, I notice that there are two Slytherin's watching me: Draco and Professor Snape.  Whatever, I think to myself, they're both weirdos. I stand and start walking to my first class for the day, Care of Magical Creatures.
