          I stood patiently inside the castle, adjusting my tie and 'Head Girl' Perfects pin, fifth year. it began today. I had spent the rest of my summer studying and breaking down different potions with my mentor. It was fantastic although I don't know if I'll stay next summer, I'm a mobile person. staying in one place all year gets quite boring. 

          I'm thinking. like. Dragons. I smirked to myself and watched on the horizon as the bright red steam engine quickly travelled over the valley.

          I nervously rocked back and forth on my feet. I was nervous to see them. it's been nearly three months. I was mostly worried to see James. It started out good but soon enough the letters stopped coming, I was worried about him, Sirius too but James and I have never been apart for so long. I will admit it hurt. a lot. The last letter he sent me still plagued my thoughts after five weeks. 

          Y/n,

I'm sorry but I can't keep doing this

I love you,

I'll see you in September.

          James

          I didn't know what in the slightest he meant did our parents find out he was still sending me letters and make him stop? did he get hurt? was he under an imperius curse? But the one thought that was plaguing my mind that I simply couldn't get rid of was the thought of what if he just doesn't love me anymore. that tiny voice in my head spoke up,

          why would he? your just a worthless cunt. bitching around all year making fun of your friends and family. you don't deserve anyone.

        this had been happening all too often lately. I just shook my head and plastered on a fake smile. I once again began to rock back and forth on my feet playing with my many rings on my fingers. suddenly I saw a carriage approaching the castle I jumped up as I saw my messy-haired brother step out laughing with Sirius. I ran over not thinking about my actions and wrapped my arms tightly around his waist, sobbing into his shirt so no one could see. He was about to push me off when he noticed who it was he picked me up and spun me around in the air. laughing he put me down. I was sobbing tears streaming down my face. fuck. tears! my makeup! 

          "oh shit" I quickly waved my wand restoring my face. Then I smiled at him.

          "oh my Merlin, you look like someone punched in your eyes" I looked at him questioningly having no idea what he was talking about. he gestured to my eyes, then I remembered the very dark and very smudged black eyeshadow around my eyes.

          "oh, that's what you meant!"

          "Yeah what else!?" I just shrugged my shoulders then turned around when someone cleared their throat from behind me. I turned to find Sirius waiting, looking like the bitch he is. I ran up to him hugging him tightly around the waist. 

       "wow, did you get even shorter?!" I laughed

          "shut up" he just grumbled under his breath. I smiled and walked into the castle with my family forgetting all about my friends who were watching me with disgust just a couple of feet away. I decided to sit with James at the Gryffindor table like I used to in third year. but I couldn't stop thinking that something was wrong. I looked across the hall to find Regulus's silver piercing eyes glaring into my own. I stood up placing a perfectly manicured hand on James' shoulder and he stopped laughing and turned to look at where I was. right at Reg. I felt him tense under my hand,

          "I do believe that I still need to have that Older brother talk right?" He went to stand clearly very angry,

          "James no. not here, not now. I'll go talk to him and be right back. I promise" I smiled at him and he sat down skeptically.

          I quickly walked over to him I needed to do this fast if I was to get back to the Gryffindor table before the feast. I hesitated behind Reg the rest of our group was starring at me although He was oblivious. I put my finger to my lips and suddenly jumped onto his back. wow, he got tall. I laughed slightly as he put me down and I pecked him on the lips. he put on a smile, fake, you could see the anger in his eyes. this wouldn't end well. I moved on to the rest of the group saying hello and interacting with each of them briefly. Bella and Cissy Gave me a look which I knew meant we needed to talk. it was at that point that Regulus Noticed my 'Head girl' Badge

          "Darling, when did you become head girl?" 

          "Just happened, well I mean I've known for a few weeks now but that's besides the point" I saw Dumbledore enter the room and I knew I needed to go.

          "hey, guys I'm sorry but I told James I would sit with him But I'll see you later?" they all looked at me shocked but Cissy spoke up,

          "yeah... we'll see you later" I nodded somberly, I was in so much shit. I ran back to James and Sirius, feeling the group of Slytherins watching my every move as I went. I sat down quietly in between James and Sirius. everyone quieted as I did. I kept my head down and didn't speak ignoring their sympathetic glances. I ate quickly and quietly, then left as soon as possible to lead the new Slytherins to the dorms, I hate. children. I groaned loud enough so they could hear when I walked over

          "okay yeah, you guys. follow me" I stopped outside the wall in front of the common room

          "so basically Snapes our head of house we live here, look at no one unless you want your throat slit. myself included. there is a list of names that'll tell you who you're rooming with. girls on the right guys on the left. The password is 'Pureblood' but it changes monthly. um, yeah that's it" I looked down to see the terrified children.

           "Oh lighten up a little" turning back to the wall I spoke again smirking,

          "welcome. to Slytherin. Pureblood" the door opened and the children walked bewildered in I looked down at them disgusted as one stepped on my boot. she spoke softly,

              "s-sorry" I just walked away feeling only slightly bad. I ran up to my room and walked down the corridor to my room only to find the door open. I paused and whipped out my wand. I stormed in to find a redhead boy standing in my room, examining one of my Records. I pinned him to the wall and held my wand to his throat and hissed,

          "who are you" 

          "Hey hey, my names Allester! I'm the New Head boy!"

          "that still doesn't explain why you're in my room when yours is across the hall" I spat out at him

          "Okay okay, I was just looking for you and wanted to meet you y'know see who I would be working with this year" I looked him up and down skeptically, he had long ginger hair that fell to just above his shoulders, he had a sharp face, jutting cheekbones and jawline. I will admit he was quite the looker but it did nothing for me. any other girl would be swooning. Do I look like a basic bitch? I pushed him out the door,

          "my name's Y/n that's all you need to know and that's all you ever will know" I gave him a sarcastic smile then dropped it in time for him to see before slamming the door in his face. 

          this was going to be an interesting year.
