a/n this chapter is dedicated to one of my extra lovely readers,  @JtheREADERgurl for they're awesome characters, I will be adding them into my story and I am super excited! so thank you again:)

Today I was walking back from History of magic and I was drowsy so of course, I managed to bump into someone. She had long curly dark brown hair, it was so curly that it seemed to almost pop out of her tightly tied ponytail in the back of her head, my green eyes met midnight blue and out of instinct,

"watch where you're going, mudblood!" we both hissed, then looked at each other and smirked, I noticed her Slytherin robes at the same time as she noticed mine.

"I've never seen you around, you don't look like a first year?"

"yeah, I transferred here with my brother Leo,"

"cool, well, I'm Estrella Snape." I introduced sticking my hand out.

"Lyra Riddle." She replied shaking my hand,

"what class do you have next?" I asked hoping she had the same class as me, because to be honest, I kinda liked her.

"charms. You?"

"same, wanna walk together?"

"sure! wanna be friends?"

We sat down and listened to Flitwick talk about random things, the whole time I could see her staring at Draco, he was sitting in front of us with a boy who had long black hair held up in a bun at the back of his head,

"thats Leo, my twin brother." Lyra told me, obviously noticing me staring at him in confusion.

"oh, cool, do you like Draco?" I asked and her cheeks turned pink.

"kinda, yeah. Alot." She muttered, clearly embarassed. "Do you like my brother?"

"he's good looking." I replied.

"How do you do that?!" She demanded, I looked at her confused.

"Do what?"

"that thing, where you never show emotions? Like how much did you have to practice?"

"I never practiced, I just never really had to." She gave me a pitying look,

"well I ne-"

"Ms. Snape and Ms. Riddle please pay attention!" Professor Flitwick squeaked. That was when I realized that, Lyra's last name was Riddle, and so was this Tom diary guy, it would be so weird if I was talking to her uncle.


Back at the dormitories I took the journal, and without a second thought I left it on the Gryffindor table in the great hall and resolved to forget all about it.


"Hey Est? I think Leo fancies you." Lyra remarked one day, I looked at her strangly,

"Yeah right." Just than Leo walked by, "Oh hey Leo!" Lyra called, he walked over and than noticed me, "Oh, hi, Leo, I'm Estrella by the way." He stuttered than his face lit up with embarassment as he realized his mistake.

"Actually I'm Estrella and yes I know your Leo." He put his hand on the back of his neck and nodded, "Right! umm... Hows school?" It was then that I noticed Lyra had ditched me and left to chat with Pansy and Draco, evidentally, Pansy hated her because she thought she was making a move on Draco, which I can defenitly confirm Lyra was.

"Oh, it was fine, how has your day being?" I casually asked, continuing to walk with Leo around the courtyard, he was about to reply when we ran into the Golden Trio, as they liked to call themselves.

"Hi Snape! Still trying to talk to your mothers ghost?" I gave Weasley a condescending look, one that made the target feel small, the trick is to straighten your shoulders, purse your lips, furrow your eyebrows wver so slightly and look down upon said target. Trust me it works!

"What did you say to her?" I looked at Leo slightly surprised. He stepped forward fists clenched. The trio stepped back I went to grab Leo's arm to pull him away, but my hand slipped and I ended up grabbing his hand, ignoring the fluttery feeling in my heart I pulled him away, I could feel their burning stares in the back of me head, but just like my feelings I chose to ignore it.

A/n hey everyone! I am sorry for the short chapter! I jsut got my character/characters and it gave me an idea for a chapter, yet I still need help!
