Starting at a new school was daunting enough, but having girls throw themselves at me within seconds was even worse. I mean I was just trying to find the charms classroom for crying out loud!

This lass, I didn't really know her name, was laughing and pushing my shoulder in the corridor, I had no idea why she was laughing. Usually I'd be up for a little flirt, but I felt really uncomfortable right now. A boy rounded the corner, cigarette between his lips, lighter ready. He saw me and the girl, obviously noting my scared demeanour. He chuckled to himself before coming over, hollering 'bro' at me.
"Astoria! Hey! I need to borrow my mate Theo here." He started pulling me away, glaring at the so called Astoria. She didn't seem to mind, only pulling heart eyes at him.
"Bye Mattheo nice to see you!"
"Yeah wish I could say the same, bye!"

We didn't talk until we had safely turned the corner to another corridor.
"Thanks for that, I'm Theo by the way."
"I know. Mattheo Riddle. Nice to meet you." He took a puff of his cigarette, offering it to me. I shook my head, telling him I was trying to quit. He looked at me wierdly before putting it out.
"So? Wanna hang out with me and the gang?"
"Erm."
"We don't bite. Much." He smirked.
"Yeah I'll hang with you." I said calmly, like I wasn't freaking out that I could finally have friends.
"Luckily my friend, you're already in Slytherin so we don't have to sneak you in, come on." I knew the route to the dungeons, so I kept pace easily. The door swung open and Mattheo began walking towards the dorm stairs.
"This is the girl's staircase?"
He nodded. "This is where we hang out. They have the best dorm. We don't hang out in my room- it's my temple you get me? Blaise and Draco are minging anyways so the girl's room is actually the nicest." He continued to the sixth year dorms, walking to the end of the corridor to throw open the door.

Inside was an amazing room; two beds, pushed to opposite walls, a massive carpet in the middle. Curtains of light yellow stood on either side of a curved window, seats and cushions underneath. Two desks, one messy and one neatly stacked, sat on either side of the window. To the left of the door was an ensuite bathroom, the marble top full of makeup barely visible in the crack.

A girl sat on the messy bed, surrounded by clothes and magazines. On her spinning desk chair sat a tall boy, who stopped to stare when we walked in. The final inhabitant was sat on the window seat, parchment and books on his lap. Mattheo went and sat on the other side of him, lighting another cigarette. "Everyone, this is Theo. Theo, this is Pansy, Blaise and Draco." They waved hi, and I awkwardly walked toward the last seat- the desk chair of the neat side of the room. I nearly knocked over a dummy when sitting down, scaring the crap out of me.

"Bertha!" A pair of hands, short nails of baby blue, laden with rings of gold, grabbed the tumbling dummy, righting it. I stuttered out an apology, the most piercing eyes of grey stopping me from forming words. She laughed, throwing her head back slightly and shaking it. "It's alright newbie, Bertha is a strong woman she can take it." She snapped her head to the side, threateningly glaring at Mattheo. "RIDDLE! WINDOW!" he muttered something before opening it, smoking in it's direction. "Thank you babes!"
"Yeah whatever" he grumbled. They all laughed, and I got the sense that happened often.
"I'm Theo," sticking my hand out to the girl.
"Y/N- Y/N Y/L/N. How'd you get here Theo?"
Pansy stopped blowing on her freshly painted nails to answer. "Mattheo picked him up in the corridor. Brought him here."
"Oh God," she bent over her desk, rummaging for something, she looked back over her shoulder at me and I swear I stopped breathing. "I'm so sorry for your experiences mate."
Mattheo protested, "Astoria was three seconds away from snogging him, so I saved the poor fellow!"
"Then I really am sorry! Having to pick between Greengrass and Mattheo? Scary." Y/N teased.
"I'll have you know I'm a delight, Y/L/N."
She raised her eyebrows, commenting on how scared of him everyone was and the countless first years he'd made cry over the years. He just nodded before going back to smoking.
"You know you can sit Theo? You don't have to stand?"
I sat gingerly on the rolly chair, not wanting a repeat of earlier.
" I think I'd rather Mattheo than Astoria." Blaise said randomly from the corner. Draco agreed.
"You know it's bad when even Malfoy agrees Mattheo is better."
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"You've tried to sleep with half the population, if you don't want to get into her pants, then it must be bad Draco!"
"Yeah that's fair, she just pisses me off, she's always there. Like go away!"
They nodded in agreement. I must have looked confused because Y/N leaned towards me. "Astoria has had a thing for Mattheo since second year, she used to constantly follow us around, but she's gotten slightly better; now she just pops up unexpectedly. It's creepy really."

"Hey guys!"
We all jumped, the figure at the door being none other than the infamous Astoria Greengrass.
"Shit we summoned her."  Y/N immediately sat up, combing her hair and rubbing under her eyes. I questioned her response but she just waved me off. Astoria sashayed into the room without an invitation, practically sitting on top of Mattheo at the window seat. "What we doing guys?"
"We were enjoying our free day, but you walked in." Pansy glared at her.
"Haha you're so funny!" Astoria scrunched her face,clearly not meaning what she said. "I was thinking of doing some smoking, but it seems Mattheo beat me to it. Mind sharing?"
"Yes."
She pouted, "even with me?"
"Yes."
Undeterred, she turned to Draco and began flirting openly. I moved over to Y/N, sitting near her pillows on her left.
"Now I understand what you mean," I whispered.
She leaned closer, I got a whiff of flowery perfume that knocked me off my feet. "Oh, believe me this is NOTHING compared to what she can do. Watch this."
She simply got up, walking to the bathroom. She almost got there when Astoria gasped drastically. "My oh my! Y/N! Your thighs are still huge! Haven't you done something about that yet?"
She turned to look at me in triumph, before slamming the bathroom door shut.
"I personally like big thighs."
The entire room snapped their heads to look at me, my eyes widening as I realized what I said. The bathroom door opened and Y/N popped her head round. "Oh I love this guy can we keep him?"
Everyone agreed.

This felt good, having friends.
