Lost In Harry Potter

Lake, Sorting, and Family

All first years had to get in boats and to be able to see Hogwarts, myself for the first time was a wonderful site to see. I would get Draco back for this and Pansy was going to be my little helper.

"So which nickname do you want me to call you? Liz or Beth? You told me that when we went to Hogwarts that I would finally get to nickname you."

I rolled my eyes at her, what was wrong with my name why must everyone have to shorten it. "What's Draco's nickname?"

"I haven't decided yet. But you will help me come up with something. Won't you?"

"Liz. You can call me Liz. As for my dear brother, you can call him Drak and later on you can change it."

"Drak I like how that sounds. You know he's going to hate the nickname right."

I smirked "Oh I'm counting on it, Pansy. What kind of sister would I be if I didn't torment him a little?"

"You know...well Draco...he...well," said Pansy as she tried to avoid something.

"What did he say Pansy spit it out already? I thought you could tell me everything."

She didn't want to look at me and as much as I wanted to enjoy the view of the castle I needed to know what was wrong with her.

"He said that you weren't his real sister. There I said it."

I looked at her with wide eyes and she finally looked at me "I'm sorry it's just that when he entered our cabin without you. We asked and he got angry and it slipped out of him and when he realized what he said he had the same look you do now."

"Oh."

"He then told us that you didn't know and that we shouldn't tell you. But we have always been so close and I didn't feel that I should keep secrets from you."

"It's okay Pansy. He must have asked mother about the truth about me since I've been having nightmare lately. I don't understand why it's as if I was a baby...look I really don't want to talk about it okay"

We arrived at Hogwarts and all began to walk up the stairs only to stop and to hear an old woman speak. When she walked away I heard Draco start talking about Harry Potter and Ron Weasley. I grabbed Pansy and pulled her with me to get to Draco.

"You never think before you speak do you Draco. Always blurting things out that are nobody's business"

He looked at me then at Pansy and realized what I was talking about. He gave me a look that told me that we would talk more about this later. As he was called to be sorted into Slytherin those that didn't know me were shocked to hear my name especially Hermione.

"Elizabeth Malfoy." I walk up and stood by the stool about to sit the hat never truly touch me and placed me in Slytherin. I went over to sit by Draco and punch him in the leg. He groaned but played it off well for nobody could tell that we were busy hitting each other under the table.

When sorting was done and the food was in front of us Draco leaned into me and whispered: "You know that this can go on forever so stop hitting me."

"Stop being a fool and maybe I will stop."

We just ate our food in peace as he just huffed at my reply. Fool he was indeed but it was good to have a brother rather than being an only child. Part of me hoped that I could change him before he turned bad. As we were now heading to the dungeons to be shown our dorms I couldn't help myself and I punch Draco again.

"Enough!" he growled.

"What are you going to do if I don't? You know how mother feels about how men should never hit the opposite sex." I said as I pushed with my hip.

"What mother doesn't know won't hurt her." He said as he pushed me back.

"Are you going to write to telling her everything that happened as well as your mistake in telling 'our' friends I wasn't really your sister?"

"I didn't mean to alright. But yes I plan to write to our parents. What did you tell Pansy?"

"I told her that I had been having nightmares and that you might have asked mother about the truth."

"Makes sense I guess." He said as we finally arrived at our common room. We were told where our room was.

"Draco, wait!" I called out to him as we were going to our rooms for the night, "When I told Pansy about nightmares and I thought about it I saw something. Not sure what but Mother also told me in a letter that I was a pureblood. Why else would I be here and why would Dumbledore choose your family for me to live with."

He looked at me and gave me a sad smile. "I'll let our mother know go to bed."

I nodded and went to my dorm room that I shared with Pansy, Daphne, and Millicent. I walked over to my bed to sleep as they spoke about the boys. In their years 3 and how they think that they like them. The only boy I thought was cute was Cedric Diggory. I hope to meet Harry Potter tomorrow.
