Your POV

Christmas was around the corner. And yesterday was our first trip to Hogsmeade. It was pretty fun but kinda boring since I've been there with my mother. I stopped hanging around Malfoy and his stupid gang because of recent events . I was this close to becoming an animagus. I found a place that let me complete the process. Oh, did I mention? I made two new friends too. Unlikely ones to be exact. Potter and Weasley. This is how.

Flashback

It was a Saturday. Meaning no classes. Yay. As I was heading outside for a swim in the Black Lake, I heard people fighting. It was Potter and Malfoy and by the looks of it, they were about to murder each other.

"Just leave me alone, Malfoy. Go tell your parents how great you are." Potter taunted.

"Don't you dare say anything about my parents. Besides, you don't have any parents as a matter of fact." Malfoy sneered as Weasley held Potter back to prevent him from lunging at the blonde.

"See Potter needs a weasel to stand by him. No wonder why he's so weak." Malfoy said smugly. Granger then spoke up.

"I could say the same about you. At least he doesn't have to fat brutes following him everywhere." Wow, Granger just destroyed him.

"Shut up, you filthy little mudblood"

"Back off, Malfoy." I stepped out. I don't know why but when he insulted Granger I lost it.

"Well, well, L/N. Coming to save Saint Potter and his misfit of friends?" I smirked.

"We both know you don't want to get in a duel with me now do you?" I said twirling my wand around. Malfoy looked livid.

"You're wrong, I'll prove it to you." He fired a hex at me. Fortunately, I blocked it and fired a spell back at him. He fell to the floor, his hands clasped to his sides, petrified. Crabbe and Goyle ran off carrying him. I turned around. The trio looked at me in awe.

"Uhm, well, thanks." Potter said.

"Don't mention it. That git deserved it."

"Well, would you like to tag along with us? We're going to Hagrid's."

"Sure, thanks!"

I followed them to Hagrid's hut and it was fun a little chat here and there. As I was in front of Hagrid's hut, I started getting a tad bit scared. What if he hates Slytherins and tries to kill me? I was imagining the worst scenarios possible and failed to notice the door open.

"Well, 'ello there 'Arry, Ron and 'ermione. Who's this?" I heard his gruff voice as he stared at my green tie. "He's a friend of ours, Hagrid. He saved Harry from Malfoy." Granger replied for me. "Tha's the fir's time I've seen a Slytherin stand up fer fellow Gryffindors, good fer you. Now lad wha's yer name?" He asked me as I replied. " I'm Y/N L/N, Professor." I said.

"No need fer such formalities, jus call me Hagrid," Wow it was surprising that I wasn't murdered. I let out a breath of relief, "Wha're lot waiting outside fer, come in" He stepped aside and let us into his house. We had tea and started talking about Sirius Black and a couple other things. My plan to swim in the Black Lake long forgotten. And my friendship with the trio was now forming.
