Desiree woke up the next morning excited to start her first day of classes. She threw on her Slytherin robes and hurried over to potions, her first class of the day. By the time she got to class, there were only a few seats left open, one being next to Malfoy. Desiree walked over "Do you mind if I sit with you? You're the only person I know that doesn't have a partner yet."
"No, go ahead," he said as he pulled the stool out for her.
She sat down "Thanks" she smiled.
Soon enough Professor Snape began the first lesson "Welcome to Potions Class. There will be no foolish wand-waving or silly incantations in this class. As such, I don't expect many of you to appreciate the subtle science and exact art of potion-making. However, for the select few that have a natural talent," he stopped and looked to Desiree and Malfoy "I expect will excel greatly in this class."
The rest of the class went by quite quickly after Snape had said something about Harry not paying attention, of course. It was now time for flying lessons with Madam Hooch. Desiree made her way down with a few other first years in the class.
"Alright, class today you will be summoning your broom by simply placing your hand over the broom and saying up. After all of you so that you will mount your brooms and hover over the ground for a few seconds then touch back down" Madam Hooch said as she looked at each student in the class.
Desiree did as she was told and the broom immediately went into her hands. Only Malfoy and Harry had managed to do it on the first time like her.
The class mounted their brooms and she began to hover over the ground. A boy named Neville Longbottom that she remembered from last night had lost control of his broom and broke his wrist.
Malfoy picked up Neville's remember all that had fallen out of his pocket "Did you see his face? Maybe if the fat lump had given this a squeeze he would've remembered to fall on his fat arse."
Desiree shot him a dirty look, she didn't like when Malfoy made fun of people. Nonetheless, Harry had tried to get it back but Malfoy being difficult of course had flown off with it.
"They are such idiots..." she said to Hermione and Ron
"Tell me about it." Hermione rolled her eyes.
Harry eventually got the remembrall from Malfoy but not without Professor McGonagall seeing him. She escorted Harry into the castle leaving the rest of you to talk about what just happened.
"That'll sure get Pottah in trouble" Malfoy smirked.
"You are unbelievable, do you know that?" Desiree rolled her eyes.
"Look Alcyone, I think we could be great friends but you need to understand I am the way I am," Malfoy said with a glum look.
"If we're going to be friends you need to realize that I won't be partaking in the way you treat people," Desiree said as she crossed arms.

It was now the next morning. Desiree made her way down to the great hall to enjoy breakfast. She sat with Malfoy and the girl she met on the boats two nights ago, Pansy. Desiree and Pansy had actually become roommates once they were both sorted into Slytherin.
Desiree sat and ate oatmeal while reading a potions book. She looked up when she realized the post owls had arrived. A small parcel was dropped in front of her along with a letter. She opened the letter first:
Desiree, we heard the great news that you were sorted into Slytherin! We knew you had what it takes. Your father and I decided we would send you this as a gift. It's a tradition in both families to send a gift to newly sorted Slytherin's. Write to us whenever you can. We love you!
-Mum
Desiree opened the parcel to reveal a beautiful silver necklace with an emerald gem on it. "Wow," she said as she examined it.
"That's beautiful. Who sent it?" Pansy asked as she sat and looked at the necklace as well.
"My parents sent it. They said it's a tradition in the Alcyone family as well as my mother's. Can you help me put it on?" Desiree asked as she handed it to Pansy.
"Of course!" Pansy grabbed it and put it around Desiree's neck.
"Thanks," Desiree said as she continued to examine the necklace now around your neck.
