Background information: Aurora Sallow is a student transferring from Bridgeton Fundamental School of Magic to Hogwarts. The Sallow family is royalty, almost at the same level of royalty as the Malfoy family.

  Auroras mother guides her through the brick wall of the train station. Excitedly, Aurora hugs her mom goodbye and starts walking towards the Hogwarts Express train. Across the train station, she notices a tall, platinum blonde haired boy. Aurora was eager to know who he was, but she quickly refocused herself and got on the train. She headed to the back and sat in an empty compartment.

  Moments later, the compartments door flung open to reveal the same tall, platinum haired boy standing in the door way. He stated, "I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy". He sat down across from her with a snarky grin on his face and Aurora took a moment to examine his features. He had pale white skin, grayish blue eyes, and hair so blonde it was almost silver. "H-hi, I'm Aurora Sallow" she stated nervously.

  Draco scoffed when she said her name, almost as if he was in disgust, but he knew he wasn't. Deep down he was interested in her and wanted to know her. "So, where are you transferring from? Bridgeton is what I've heard around" he stated in a deep British accent.

  "Yes, that would be correct. My mother transferred me because I was losing interest in my studies at Bridgeton. She thought I'd do better at Hogwarts" Aurora said. Draco then proceeded to say, "Well Hogwarts is okay I guess; I'm sure it will be better this year with you here now" with a straight face.

  Auroras heart quickly started to beat faster and her cheeks turned a light pink. Draco moved towards her in a slow manor, and got close to her ear, nearly touching it with his lips, and whispered, "do I make you nervous, Aurora?" At that moment, her heart skipped a beat and she started to get a bit wet. She was curious as to how he made her feel this way only after knowing him for such a short amount of time. Draco laughed in a cunning way and winked at Aurora as he left the compartment. She felt a deep attraction to Draco, but was unsure of why considering she met him moments ago.

  When Draco left the compartment, he walked to his Slytherin friends, Elijah and Blaze, to ask them what they thought of Aurora and what house they thought she would be placed into. Elijah then said, "she will be placed in Slytherin, look at her, black curly hair, bright green eyes, and beautiful pale sk-", Draco interrupted with, "Back off Elijah, I can tell you find her charming, but I'm claiming her now, she's mine" in a possessive manor.

  Meanwhile in Auroras compartment a lovely girl with brown hair sat across from her and said, "Hey, I'm Iris Doughty" in a welcoming way. Aurora responded with her name and the two girls instantly connected. Aurora felt as though Iris would be a great friend. "What house do you believe you will be put in? I'm a Ravenclaw and proud!" Iris exclaimed. "Well, I- I don't know exactly. I guess I'm going to let the sorting hat completely pick for me." Aurora said. Even with Iris in the compartment with her, all Aurora could think about was Draco Malfoy. Why do I find him so handsome, who is he really, I have to get to know him and fast, she thought to herself. Out of curiosity, Aurora asked Iris if she knew Draco Malfoy. With a shocked expression on her face, Iris stated, "Draco Malfoy is the son of Lucius Malfoy, a death eater. Draco is the bully of Hogwarts and cannot be trusted!" Aurora wanted to ask why, but instead she kept quiet the rest of the train ride and continued to think of Draco Malfoy. It was almost as if he had left an imprint of himself in her mind.
