Lost in the Truth

CHAPTER TWO

After the first dinner in the castle we were dismissed by Dumbledore and we all left the great hall and headed towards our respective common room, which was kind of strange since this was the first time ever Avery was not by my side, we always shared a dorm together, shared the same classes, We truly did everything together and well at Ilvermorny, they were quite strict on boys and girls intermixing and visiting each other's dorms, clear exception for Ambrose we eventually managed to obtain with a few eyelash bats and flirting with Head Boys, and make overs for the Head Girls.

We quickly made our way down the twisting halls, I tried to memorize the path but it was quite hard with the moving stairs and distracting decorations, the ghost flying above our heads and through us. Disgusting truly. 

It was all too much, and I was already getting too overwhelmed by everything, I just wanted to get to my dorm already.

"Come on Bella" pansy says as she grabs my hand and pulls me along snapping me out of a trance, I look back towards Ambrose. I was already dreading this year. He was the only thing keeping me from freaking out. So I quickly grabbed his hand and pulled him with me, now Pansy, Ambrose and I were in a line weaving through the other slytherins.

"Come on, we need to get you settled before anyone else." pansy says as we leave behind the crown of slytherin far behind us, and slip into the slytherin common room.

Draco was sitting in a black leather armchair next to the fireplace spilling its emerald green flames from the top of the mantel.

"Draco do you know where Bella and Ambrose's dorm is?" pansy asks

"Oh you're a prefect?" Ambrose asks.

"Yeah I am, Gaumont is staying with you and your little followers, and Alastair is staying with Berkshire, and Zabini." he says.

"Oh good, let's show Ambrose his dorm first and then we'll go to ours." pansy says

"Sounds good" I say as I follow her towards the boys' side of the dormitories.

We go all the way down the hall right as the last two dorms are settled, pansy opens a door, and there are already some guy in there undressing, I quickly turn around and face the opposite way and look towards the common room and make awkward eye contact with Draco.

"Enzo put on some clothes, you have a new roomie, and new friends." pansy says as she grabs my hand making me look back into the room as I try not to stumble forward.

I give a shy yet polite smile as I try to avoid eye contact. I really just wanted to go to my dorm and have a space of my own.

"Who's this?" a brown haired boy says as he slips his shirt back on and walks towards us by the door.

"This here is Arabella Gaumont, you would've known that if you bothered to show up for dinner." pansy says giving him a jokingly annoyed look, making the boy give a gentle smirk.

"And this is Lorenzo Berkshire, better known as Enzo" pansy says.

"Nice to meet you Arabella" Enzo says putting emphasis on the 'bella' part of my name.

"I actually go by bella more." I corrected him.

"Noted." he said.

"And this?" Enzo asks

"This is Ambrose Alastair." pansy says, Ambrose raises his eyebrows as a matter-of-factly.

"So two new kids this year?" Enzo asks

"Three actually, we have another friend, Avery James, she was sorted into ravenclaw." I say

"Well then, I can't wait to meet her." enzo says as he goes into the restroom of their dorm.
