Confession's || Draco Malfoy x OC

The Hogwarts express

Me and my mother had gotten everything i needed and more, she had even bought me an owl. A small barn owl whom i had called David. I don't know what it was about the name David but it suited the owl perfectly. I had packed my bag the day before, I was sure that I had everything.

I woke up to David screeching, he was very loud and is probably more excited than me for this new chapter in our lives. I haven't seen any of the Weasleys since the incident at the party, hopefully they weren't in to much trouble. Once I had finally rolled out of bed and gotten dressed i took David and my case down stairs and in to the north living room.

I sat there in anticipation waiting for one of my parents to come and get me so that we could finally get on our way to kings cross. I wasn't sure what the time was but it was taking a bloody long time. Eventually after about an hour of waiting we finally were on our way to kings cross station.

━━━━━༻❁༺━━━━━

I was one of the last people to get on the train so there weren't any empty carriages so i set off to find the Weasleys. It didn't take long to find Ron he was sat in a compartment with a small brunette boy, he had glasses and looked rather confused I knocked on the window of the compartment and let myself in.

"Hello Ronald, who's your friend?" I questioned raising my eyebrow at the brunette.

"Your never going to believe it" He teased me.

It only took one look at the boy for me to clock who it was. "Harry bloody Potter, what on earth are you doing with this loser" I asked him chuckling slightly.

Ron hit my arm lightly "I'm not a loser Harry, ignore her." Harry Laughed slightly at Rons statement. He seems nice.

We had ent even been on the train for ten minutes and Harry had already bought the all the sweets that the lady brought round. They were stuffing there faces with them and laughing, boys are disgusting. At that moment I was saved by a girl walking into our compartment.

"Have you seen a toad?" She questioned. "Neville's lost his and I'm trying to find it" She added. She made small chitchat with us before she left basically staring at Harry in awe despite his face being covered in all sorts of sickily junk. Just as she was about to leave I offered my help anything for five minutes away from all the sugar in our compartment. 

We were walking down the hall of the train going into every compartment and asking if they'd seen the toad, she was actually really nice. Her name was Hermione and she was muggle born, however she seemed to know a lot about magic. We were coming to the last couple compartments when i saw someone I recognised. Draco Malfoy.

Hermione knocked on the compartment door and waited to be invited in. "Have any of you seen a toad, Neville has lost his." She stated in a very mater-of-fact tone. The compartment burst into laughter and then Malfoy spotted me.

"Thornton fancy seeing you here, I don't suppose your looking for a toad as well." He smirked.

"Actually I am Malfoy, do you have a problem with that" I questioned.

"No, no I just find it funny thats all" He replied.

"What's funny about that Malfoy" I asked.

"Guys this conversation is very entertaining, but we do have to find Neville's toad. So respectfully have you seen it?" Hermione interrupted.

"Listen frizz-ball I wasn't talking to yo-" Malfoy started.

"Shut up Malfoy, shes asking you an easy question. Yes or no, have you seen the toad" I interrupted.

"I don't know" He smirked.

"Christ I knew you weren't the brightest but i thought you could answer a yes or no question" I laughed as I pulled Hermione out of the compartment and slammed the door behind us.

Draco's ego is to big for his boots just like his father. The Malfoy's and Thorntons go way back, there has been a rivalry between the two family's for hundreds of years. It's in our blood. The Malfoy's think there so powerful with they're pure blood status and all there money, they think they own the world. The Malfoy's are a dark family they're known to have followed he who must not be named when he was alive. And god do they make me sick to my stomach, all of them.

All the students were sat in the great hall waiting for the sorting ceremony to begin. I was sat by Hermione and Neville who had finally found his toad. He was a strange boy he seemed rather shy, but he seemed very kind. He didn't stop thanking me and Hermione for helping him find his toad, he was very great full.

Once the sorting ceremony had began I started to get nervous, my whole future at this school depended on what house I got sorted into. It would affect what friends i have, what people think of me. I mean there are tons of stereotypes for all the houses. For example, Gryffindor is brave but cocky and Hufflepuff is sensitive and emotional Ravenclaw are bright but a little weird and Slytherins are evil. My parents however have raised me to not believe in those stereotypes, we have family friends that were in all those houses. So I would be pretty happy wherever I get put as long as I'm with someone nice.

Finally they called my name.

"Thornton, Alice!" I walked to the front of the hall and sat down on a stool facing all the student who somehow managed to fit into one room. An old hat which i knew as the sorting hat was placed on my head. It was sat there for around 10 seconds muttering its opinions, and then it called out my house...

...Slytherin.
