(y/n) - your name

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Great Hall was bustling with students as they had their lunch, chatting and gossiping with each other. Draco was talking with his group of friends when he caught a glimpse of (y/n) walking into the hall, going up to the Gryffindor table and smacking both Ron and Harry upside their heads.

"Ow!" they hiss in pain, looking at (y/n) who was annoyed.

"That's for the car." she hisses lowly to Harry only and his eyes widen when he realised it was her who saved them from crashing.

"It was you!" he whispers and she nods, Ron still confused about why (y/n) had hit him. Draco watches with amusement, snickering at the scene as she crossed her arms angrily.

"That took a lot from me to save your butts." she whispers, leaning down to Harry so no one else could hear them.

"I'm so sorry. Let me make it up to you-" she raises a hand, the Gryffindor boy quickly shutting up. She passed by Ron and stole his broken wand from his pocket without him noticing, Draco watching how she fixed it with a faint glimmer of red before she put it back in his pocket again. There truly was a hint of Slytherin in her. She really could steal anything she wanted easily with no one noticing.

"Wait how-" Ron gasps when he pulls out his wand to fix it with sticky tape but it was already mended, the Slytherin boy catching on the slight smirk on Hufflepuffs's face as she sat down at her house table.

"What is this junk?" (Y/n) sighs in annoyance seeing chips and lollies for lunch instead of proper food and she groans out before turning around to talk to her friends instead. She could get some sandwiches or something from the kitchen later.

"Ron? Is that your owl?" the students look up to see the owl haphazardly flying towards them before dropping into the bowl of chips, everyone laughing at the scene.

"Bloody birds a menace!" Ron exclaims, taking the letter out from its beak as it jumps up and flies away.

"Oh my god, is that a howler!?" (y/n) gasps, Ron looking at the letter in fear when he read that it was from his mother. Everyone laughs as he opens it up with shaky hands, dropping the letter on the table when he heard his mother yell out his full name. "Oh, the full government name too! You're in deep trouble boy!" everyone watches as the letter flies up to hover in front of Ron, his mother yelling at him about the car and congratulating Ginny on getting into Gryffindor before ripping itself up.

~~~~~~~~

The students were sitting at their desks while chatting, waiting for their professor to come in. Hermione and (y/n) were once again partners as they decided to stick together as desk mates, Harry and Ron sitting behind them as the girls turned around to talk to the boys. (y/n) scrunched her nose at how many portraits the professor had of himself, loudly proclaiming how egotistical he truly was. She didn't notice Draco brushing past her and dropping something in her lap until she felt something drop in her skirt, looking down to see a couple of sandwiches and pears.

She looked up quickly to see him sit down in his seat next to her without a word, a hint of a smile on his face which makes her grin happily. Draco had noticed that she wasn't eating properly and bullied a 1st-year Hufflepuff to sneak into the kitchens to grab food for him, later handing it to (y/n).

The girl ate the pear silently, listening to the golden trio talk. "Are you eating? Right now?" Ron asks. "How did you get food!?" he whines out, mentioning that he was hungry too.

"I get a secret delivery made and no, I'm not sharing." (y/n) says, sticking her tongue out at the boy and finishing the pear off before the professor walked into the class. He dramatically walked out from a door above some stairs-looking tower thing, Lockhart introducing himself as the new DADA professor.

(y/n) suddenly heard heartthrob sighs and looks around to see girls swooning over this teacher, even Hermione! "Girl, no way!" she whispers, seeing the starstruck gaze in her eyes as the teacher walks down the stairs and in front of the class. Why was a teacher trying to seduce a bunch of 12-year-olds with his smile? (y/n) looked at Draco who was looking at her with confusion too, the both of them shrugging as they watched Lockhart reveal the supposed dangerous creatures from beneath the maroon fabric after a way too long and boring monologue.

"Cornish pixies?" Seamus laughs, the class seeing a bunch of them locked up in a birdcage. The students laughed but Lockhart warns them to not judge by the appearance of these small devilish creatures.

"Laugh if you will, Mr. Finnigan, but pixies can be devilishly tricky little blighters. Let's see what you make of them!" Lockhart suddenly opens the cage and the pixies fly out to wreak havoc on the students as they scream out, trying to protect themselves. (y/n) jumped down below the table to avoid the pixies, noticing Draco shrieking as he used a book to cover himself. Neville suddenly starts screaming for help when the pixies pick him up by his ears, pulling him up in the air.

"Why is it always Neville?" (y/n) sighs out, watching everyone running around and trying to escape including the cowardly platinum blonde-haired boy. The pixies tried to pull pranks on her but she growls and flashes her eyes red, the little purple creatures shrieking and flying away from her. (y/n) looks up and sees Neville being hung up from the chandelier by his coat, some students running out of the classroom while Lockhart tries to cast a spell to stop the pixies but fails. The golden trio were hitting the pixies with their books, (y/n) simply sitting cross-legged beneath the table.

The pixies grabbed Lockhart's wand from him, flying up to the chain holding up a skeleton and before they could break it, (y/n) had enough. She hides her hands beneath her cloak, her powers bursting out around the classroom to control the pixies. Harry notices how the pixies suddenly freeze in the air and quickly moves to cover her with his cloak so no one could see her send the pixies back into the cage and lock them up before rescuing Neville to set him back on the ground. Everything stops for a minute as she stops using her powers, everyone looking around in confusion but sighs out in relief that the chaos was stopped

"You ok?" Harry turns around to help (y/n) out from beneath her table and she nods, keeping her hands hidden beneath her cloak.

"Yeah, I had enough of them." she sighs out.

~~~~~~~~

"Why is it so cold!" (y/n) complains, shivering within her cloak as she sat outside with Hermione who was trying to teach Ron.

"You can always go inside you know." He rolls his eyes and she sticks her tongue out at him.

"There's nothing to do inside." she says, pulling her legs up on the bench and cocooning herself. She hummed softly to the music she was listening to, her headphones hidden beneath her cloak's hood and her walkman in her lap when she suddenly picks up on laughter and turns to the side to see the Slytherin Quidditch team walk past her. She catches a glance of famous the platinum blonde-hair, brow raised in interest.

"I smell trouble." Ron quickly says when he sees the Gryffindor team and the Slytherin team squaring up, the three of them quickly walking over. (y/n) hides her walkman as she pulls her hood down

"You've got a new Seeker. Who?" Oliver asks and the Slytherins part to reveal Draco.

"Malfoy?" Harry questions as the other smirks at him.

"That's right. And that's not all that's new this year." he shows off his new broom, the Gryffindors looking down to see that the whole team got the latest brooms.

"How did you get those!?" Ron gasps out.

"A gift from Draco's father." Marcus grins.

"You see Weasley, unlike some, my father can afford the best." Draco smirks but was clapped backed by Hermione.

"At least no one on the Gryffindor team had to buy their way in. They got it on pure talent."

"Damn Hermione!" (y/n) gasps out but Draco was not having it, walking towards Hermione with a glare.

"No one asked your opinion, you filthy little Mudblood!" and that's when (y/n) narrowed her eyes at Draco, walking in front of Hermione to push him back.

"Like there's anything pure about you!" she snaps, the Slytherins letting out long 'ohs' that Draco was being talked back by a girl, a Hufflepuff at that too.

"Please, you're just jealous 'cause you know what you missed out on if only you picked Slytherin and not Hufflepuff. I could shower you with gifts but you chose the wrong house."

"Your money means jack Malfoy. You think buying your way into things is how you get on top but watch when those same people betray you for a higher price."

"Ooo the Hufflepuff princess is getting snappy Malfoy. She wants youuuu." someone from the Slytherin group says behind him, Draco enjoying the talk back from (y/n) in front of him as she glares up at him.

"As if I want anything to do with this pompous git!" she rolls her eyes but the Slytherin boy in front of her smirks.

"Who wouldn't want me? I'm on the quidditch team and I come from a rich family. You're just lying to yourself." (y/n)'s cheeks burn red from Draco's words, shoving him back harshly.

"I don't need your money Malfoy. You know I have more than you could ever dream." she sneers, grinning at the boy when the team murmurs in confusion. "Let's even the playing field why don't we." she snaps her fingers behind her back, everyone suddenly hearing loud hoots and looking up to see the Gryffindor team's owls fly above them with big packages. Each player catches the package, unwrapping it to find the latest brooms that Slytherin has.

"How!?" the Slytherin team gasps, looking annoyed.

"You're not the only rich family here Malfoy. I can easily outbuy everyone here." (y/n) hisses, the boy gulping hard at the wicked smile on her face that sends shivers up his spine. During the whole spat between the two students, Hermione ran off crying and Ron and Harry went after her as they went to Hagrids hut.
