Daphne had a break, so she went back to the common room and stayed in her bed until it was time to eat. She skimmed through her books, she didn't want to actually read, but she knew what it was about. Daphne is a smart girl, but tends to show otherwise.

Snape mostly helped her through her schoolwork within the years. Showing her the right way, his way, for spells and other things. She sets her books aside and watched Lucifer slither in his glass case. Daphne picked him up, playing with him. He slither around her arm, making her smile. His skin turned into a iridescent color as the sun peeked through water and the window, since the dorm was under black lake, pretty he was.

"There you are." Julia walks in, making Daphne look to her left. "Lets go, we gotta go to Professor Flitwicks class." Daphne takes her wand and books with her. They both found a seat, behind the boys.

"One of a wizard's most rudimentary skills is levitation the ability to make objects fly." Class had begun. "Uh, do you all have your feathers?" I touched my feather that was on the corner of my desk. "Good. Now, uh, don't forget the nice wrist movement we've been practicing, hmm? The swish and flick. Everyone." All of us did The swish and flick. "Good. And enunciate. Wingardium Leviosa. Off you go then."

"Wingardium Levio-saaa." We all started to practice. I struggled, i looked up to see Hermione straightens up and swishes her wand.The feather glows and lifts up. Ron puts his head on his books dejectedly. I clenched my jaw.

"Oh, well done! See here, everyone! Ms. Granger's done it! Oh, splendid!" I slammed my wand on my desk, crossing my arms. Seamus begins swishing at his feather.

"Wingard Levosa. Wingard Levosa." BOOOM!!! Seamus' feather explodes. Flitwick gasps. That it cheered me up a bit. When class ended, we walked through the courtyard.

"It's Leviosa, not Leviosar." I mimicked Granger, rolling my eyes. Oh please. "She's getting on my nerves."

"Potter as well." Draco joins. Potter is in my book, even though he didn't do anything, it was just the way my father spoke about him that made me annoyed. For the Weasley, he's their friend so that counts. We stared at Potter and Weasley, walking through. We stared them down, making them look at their feet. The others walked away to go to class and I was off to the common room with Draco and the clowns. As we got in the room, i laid on the couch.

"AHHH!" I heard a screech. I jumped up to see the three boys on top of the chairs and table.

"What is it!"

"Snake!" They pointed at the ground. I scuffed.

"Lucifer." I picked him up. He moved around my hand. "I probably forgot to close his case."

"You named the bloody thing?!"

"Hes my pet." I walked closer to them.

"Get that thing away from me!"

"That thing has a name." I growled at them. I shook my head as I went to my dorm. "Boys."

Later that Night, in the great hall. It is Halloween. Everyone is eating candy, and Jack O'Lanterns are keeping the place lit. There is chatter. Halloween is my favorite holiday. I love the colors, the candy, you name it. Suddenly, Professor Quirrell comes flying into the room, screaming.

"TROLL! IN THE DUNGEON! T-TROOLLL IN THE DUNGEON!!" The chatter stops. The hall went silent. "Thought you ought to know." He falls over in a dead faint. The room was silent, and then everyone freaks, screaming and running.

"AHHHH!" Draco shoved Crabbe and Goyle.

"Out of my way!" I screamed pushing people to get to the door.

"SILLLLLEEENNNNCEEEEE!" Dumbledore yells, Everyone stops. "Everyone will please, not panic. Now, Prefects will lead their houses back to the dormitories. Teachers will follow me to the dungeons."

"Slytherin!" We followed the Prefect to the dorms. "Stay alert, dont wonder." I tend to look back, in case.we all went to our dorms, waiting it out. Blaise and I played around with cards by the fireplace.

"How does a troll get in?"

"Trolls are stupid." Draco comes in, jumping on the couch, laying down. "Who knows, maybe someone let it in."

"Really?" I set my cards down, turning to him. "Who can be that stupid to bring a troll here?" I stood up, walking to the chair to sit. "It was probably Goyles stench that attracted it here." We all smirked.

"Hey!" Draco sits up, looking at me.

"I think we'll be very great friends."

"I thought we were already friends." We just stared at each other. What a start of a great friendship. We got the news that the troll was found. Fairly quickly, dont you think?

"Alright off to bed." The perfect announced. We all groan and made our way to bed. The girls were sleeping by the time I came back from changing. I sat on my bed just thinking about Draco. Why would I? I mean he's- never mind. I don't want to think about it anymore.

Its quidditch game day for Slytherin VS Gryffindor. The kids headed out early, brought their gloves, sweaters, hats and scarves since it was chilly out. They wanted front row seats to see Potter make a fool out of himself.

"Can't wait to see it happen." Draco smirks. The crowd was cheering, clapping. It was beginning. The teams flew out.

"Hello, and welcome to Hogwarts' first Quidditch game of the season! Today's game Slytherin versus Gryffindor!" We all went crazy. The players take their positions in the air in a circle. Harry weaves in, highest amongst. He looks down. Madam Hooch tosses the Quaffle. The game began. Not even 5 minutes in, Gryffindor scores.

"Angelina Johnson scores! 10 points for Gryffindor!" And then another. All we did was pout. Flint started to get dirty, he grabs a beaters bat from one and whacks a bludger right at Oliver. It hits Oliver in the stomach and he falls to the ground

"Bloody hell!" We scored, making our team go crazy. And then another. Suddenly, Harry sees the Snitch. He starts to head off after it and then his broom starts bucking and turning.

"Look at him!" They pointed at him, laughing. Harry is knocked around, then falls, dangling by one arm from the broom. He gets up on his broom. Harry rams the Slytherin Seeker, then is butted out. He returns, smashing the Seeker again as the Snitch dives. The boys follow, but they approach the ground quickly. The Slytherin Seeker backs out, and Harry pulls up his broom as he follows the Snitch, feet above the ground. Harry stands up, and steps forward, trying to grab the ball. He goes too far, and topples off the broom with a yelp, tumbling on the ground. He gets up and lurches. The crowd gasps.

"Looks like he's going to be sick." Harry lurches and the Snitch pops out of his mouth. It lands in his hands.

"He's got the Snitch! Harry Potter receives 150 points for catching the Snitch!" Hooch blows her whistle.

"Gryffindor win!"

"YAY!" Everyone celebrated. We all sat down in defeat.

"No!" Draco falls back.
