  "You're late," a voice echoed from above me. I recognized it as Marella's, and even before I opened my eyes I pictured her staring at me with a smirk on her face.

  Marella Redek was a one of a kind friend. The kind that would steal all your food and laugh at your tears when you found out, but also the one that would smash your ex-boyfriends car for cheating on you.

  Like I said, one of a kind.

  "Wha-what?" I wiped some drool off my face, reluctantly opening my eyes. Why did Hogwarts have to start so early? I thought about emailing the new headmaster about a late start. 10:00 should do fine, eh?

  "The morning bell rang twenty minutes ago, moron. You don't have time to shower." Marella threw my uniform at me. "Change or we'll be late for breakfast."

  I felt my sticky hair, hardened from drool. I groaned, and half-heartedly threw on my sweater.  Marella pushed me out the door before I could get the sleeve of my robe on. So much for a late start. "Quick, I heard there's a new student in our form!"

 "In our  form?" I asked doubtingly. Hogwarts rarely accepted late entries above second year. "Where did you hear it from?" Curiosity won my cynical mind over.

  "Vera Longstocking," Marella replied, out of breath as we approached the Great Hall. Most students were already seated, and I noticed that the tables no longer has their crests hanging above them. Hogwarts was experimenting with inter-House seating. I glared at my brother, Fitz, who was still seated next to a Gryffindor with blonde hair.

  I bit my lip. Sophie. I didn't know what to think of my ex-best friend, who had earned the title "ex" after sticking with Fitz, against me. Before I could shoot a glare at her, too, the whole hall went silent, and heads turned towards a girl who was walking towards our table and looked familiar–yet not quite.

  She wore a blue and bronze scarf–Ravenclaw, I thought–that faded into long, black hair with sharp silver ends. Her small smile was both kind and cautious, as if she was hiding fangs underneath.

  "You're drooling," I whispered to Marella, who seemed awestruck at the girl–who I had deemed new, given the amount of stares she was getting.

  "Shut up," Marella whispered back, and I grinned, knowing how much blackmail I would get from her new crush. Ahh, how it is to be young and in love.

  "Can I sit here?" A Hufflepuff with periwinkle eyes asked. Dex was one of my old friends, yet he was still the nicest person I'd ever met. Despite this, Marella muttered a TV-MA version of "Go away," and Dex fled. 

  Marella turned and smiled at the new Ravenclaw, who had been waiting behind Dex to sit next to Marella. Instead, the girl glared at her and walked off to sit with Dex.

  "Way to go, Redek," I smirked at my friend who had an anguished expression on her face. "At least she's nicer than you."

  The smile was soon wiped off my face when I saw who was walking towards the Slytherin table. "What the-"

   Everyone and everything in the room went silent. And even though there were new silver additions to his hair, I could recognize those eyes anywhere.

  Tam. Tam Song.

  No. Freaking. Way.

  Our eyes met, and I dropped my plate down onto the table, letting it settle with a clash!, as his mouth dropped open inevitably.

  "I don't feel good," I muttered, not knowing if it was directed to Marella or myself. I ran to the dorms haphazardly, as quickly as I had come.
