Hermione's Little Sister

1

Hermione sits at the Gryffindor table with Harry and Ron. "My sister is joining Hogwarts... mom and dad has another shock when their second daughter showed magic abilities." Harry smiles. "What's her name?" "Marie." They talk then the doors open. Hermione looks and sees her sister. 

She smiles. "She's the one next to the boy with the brown hair..." They look and see her. "Time to sort our new first-year students!" The room cheers and Marie looks around. "First up, Marie Granger..." Marie makes her way to the stool and sits down.

The sorting hat is placed on her head and she waits. "Oh... another Granger... wonderful... you're just like your sister... Gryffindor!" Marie smiles and heads over. She sits beside her sister. "Marie, this is Harry and that is Ron..." Marie smiles. 

"Nice to meet you, Hermione told me a lot about yous..." They talk for a while and Hermione turns to Marie. "Fair warning, the blond boy in Slytherin, is annoying, bullies us, and  thinks he's better than everyone..." Marie nods and glances over. 

She sees him and he's almost glaring at her. She looks away and sighs. "Everything okay?" Marie looks at Harry and smiles. "Yeah..."

Marie finds her first class and goes inside. She sees a teacher with black hair and she looks at him. "Who are you?" "M-Marie Granger... Professor..." The teacher groans and stands up. 

"First, there will be no foolish wand-waving in my class. Second, sit next to Malfoy since he doesn't have a partner." Marie nods and goes over. She sits diagonally across from him. She keeps her head down. She hears a groan and looks over at Malfoy. "Filthy mudblood..." 

Marie looks away and turns to face the teacher. "Now, Hogwarts has decided to mix first-years and second-years..." The class groans. "Well, turn to page 124 and read until we change classes. Marie sees everyone getting their book and she's looking for one. Draco looks at her and smirks. 

She bites her lip and goes to raise her hand. Draco casts a spell to bring a book to the table. "Psst, mudblood..." Marie looks at him. He slides the book over and turns to his book. She opens the page and starts reading. Draco looks at her. She feels his eyes on her. She smiles a little. 

"Thank you..." Draco's eyes widen just a little before he returns to reading about potions.

Next is brooms. Again, it's another class with Malfoy. Marie sighs and stands near a broom. "We will quickly run over how to get the broom to your hand. The second-years groan. "We only have one first-year in this class, move on..." 

Marie looks down at the broom and remembers her sister teaching her some things. Marie looks up at the second year. She holds her hand above the broom handle. "Up!" The broom flies into her firm grip. Draco looks at her with a bit of an impressed look. 

"Alright, we can indeed move on. Marie stands there with her broom. "Today, we will learn how to mount and fly a few feet off the ground." As the professor explains, Marie feels Malfoy staring at her. She rolls her eyes and turns her body away. 

She sees a couple of students up in the air and then, everyone is in the air. The professor starts walking over to Marie but Draco looks at her. "Sit on the broom and push off with your feet." Marie looks at him. "Thank you..." They each do it and Marie smiles. 

"Hey, Draco, remember the little tradition we made with first years?"

Draco turns to another flyer and nods. Marie looks at them. Draco pulls out a remembrall and smirks. "Mudblood, this is a remembrall... find it." Draco whips it away. Marie follows it with her eyes and the professor isn't watching. Marie rolls her eyes and flies out. 

She catches the remembrall and smiles. 'Nice try, Malfoy... gotta try harder than that..." She flies back with the remembrall. Draco looks at her. "Take after Pottah, always catching the golden snitch..."  Marie smiles. "Catch." She throws it and Draco catches it. 

She flies back and the remembrall turns red. "Forgetting something?" Draco glares at her. "Nothing, mudblood..." Marie floats down to the ground and gets off the broom. She looks up at them. Draco looks down at her and sees her looking up at them. 

He tosses the remembrall up and catches it. He whistles and Marie looks at him. he holds up the remembrall and throws it to her. She catches it and looks at it. She smiles at Draco.

They're all in the Great Hall. Marie walks in and sees Hermione looking at her. She quickly goes over and sits with them. "Hey, how was your first day?" Marie smiles. "It was good..." Ron sees the remembrall. "She's got a remembrall..." The whole table looks at her. 

Marie looks at everyone. "What?" Hermione looks at her sister. "Who gave you it?" Marie looks at Hermione. "Malfoy..." Harry looks at Hermione. Hermione sighs. "I told you to stay away from him..." Marie looks down. "We have potions and brooms together..." Hermione sighs. 

"Ignore him, getting close to him will just be a great downfall..." Marie nods and looks across the room at Slytherin. Draco looks up and their eyes meet. He smiles at her and she looks away. Harry and Ron turn their heads and see Draco looking. Marie sighs. 

"Ignore him, it will just cause a great downfall..." They look at Marie. "Yeah..." Marie picks up a pumpkin tart and stays out of everyone's conversations. Marie looks up and sees Draco looking at her. She looks away and turns to Hermione. "I'll be in the Gryffindor room..." 

She gets up and leaves. Hermione looks at Marie and then turns to Harry and Ron. "Maybe she should make the friends she wants..." As they talk, they don't notice Draco getting up and leaving.

~

He sees Marie standing against a wall. He goes over. "So... you're Granger's sister?" Marie jumps and looks up. "Yeah..." Draco smiles. "Fun having her tell you what to do?" Marie rolls her eyes. "She has to realize soon that I am not the same little girl she's seen..." 

Draco goes to talk but sees Hermione, Ron, and Harry walking over. He backs away and walks away. Marie looks up and sees her sister and friends. Marie turns and walks away to the Gryffindor common room.

Marie sits on her bed and looks over her homework. She hears the door open and looks up to see Hermione. "Marie..." Marie looks down. "I know... I shouldn't talk to Draco..." Marie dips her quill in her ink and continues writing her essay. Hermione looks at her. 

"You can be friends with anyone..." Marie looks at her. "Really?" Hermione nods. Marie smiles. "Good... because I think I already made one..." Hermione looks at her. "Malfoy?" Marie nods a little. "We're talking and he did give me the remembrall..." Hermione smiles. 

"No one gets to keep those..." Marie smiles. "Thanks, Mione..." Hermione smiles and goes to do her homework.
