• Dangerous to dream •

• Part 7 - The common room •

We had finished dinner and were then taken to our common room, I was glad I got put in Slytherin...they had the best common room.

The room glowed green from the Great Lake, with dim lighting, black leather couches, everything was perfect.

It even smelled perfect...like frosted pine with a hint of lavender.

The rest of my years faces lit up as the prefect showed us around.

Vaicey linked arms with me.

"Well this is a bit fancy isn't it?"

"I know! It's absolutely gorgeous!"

"Hell yeah...thank god I'm in Slytherin...I'd think I'd die if I got into any other house, none of them are as rich as Slytherins, I even heard that Mose of the furniture and paintings in here are from previous Slytherin families...how cool is that!"

I began telling Vaicey what Snape had told me.

I realised that there were also a few girls that were in my year and decided to introduce myself.

"I'm gonna go talk to them"

"Yeah see ya gurl"

I walked over to the three girls.

"Hey-"

The one in the middle cut me off though,

"Don't 'hey' us! We don't want to be friends with a freak like you!"

Huh? But they didn't know me.

And here I thought there was only one person as bad as Carly in the world.

I mean they didn't need to be so rude,

"I just wanted to introduce myself we're in the same house after all"

"Well if you'd really like to know our names this is Millicent Bulstrode and this is Daphne Greengrass and I'm Pansy Parkinson I'm the prettiest and the best out of the Slytherin girls. So just because your father is like...Voldemort and all it doesn't make you better than me...you'll never be better than me"

"I-"

"Stop. We don't want to be friends so go away!"

She then shooed me away like I was some sort of servant.

Pug faced bitch.

———

Me Vaicey, Draco, Blaise, Crabbe and Goyle all basically claimed the black leather couches straight away.

I could feel the Parkinson girls eyes on me the full time.

It was kinda funny how much I intimated her.

"Wait gurl you get your own room! Lucky!!!"

Vaicey was whining like a child because he couldn't share a dorm with me.

Blaise was whining like a child because he had to share a dorm with Vaicey.

"I have my own room too"

Oh wow, Draco has his own room too ohmigawsh

"Really how come?"

His eyes gleamed in the light of the fire, he truly was extremely handsome.

I was literally mesmerised by him.

"Father payed to get me my own, he was worried that I'd have to share with boys like Vaicey"

Vaicey jumped on him and began to fake snog him

We all started to roar with laughter as Draco screamed in pure fear.

"HELP! HELP MEH! IM BEING ATTACKED!"

———

At least I didn't have to share a dorm with those girls, although I did kinda want a buddy.

The room was rather empty with four big beds with emerald green curtains round them, there were green crushed velvet blankets, tapestries hung on the walls, candles scattered across the shelves to light the room...it was awesome but really quiet.

Suddenly there was a knock at my door.

It was Vaicey.

"I escaped, Lydia hide me..."

"Oh really now, because it looks like you kinda planned on coming"

He had all his trunks and bags with him.

"Uhhhhh"

"Vaicey stop acting dumb and get in here now!"

"Eeeeeeeee!!!"

"We are gonna have so much fun sharing a dorm!"

"I never expected that to come out of the dark lords daughters mouth, but YES! Ooooh! Let's decorate!!!"

"Decorate?"

"DECORATE!!!"

We spent most of the night setting up and laughing, Vaicey had a bunch of decorations.

He was like a walking fashion store.

I swear he had packed everything.

We joined the other two beds to ours to make two double beds.

The room was way cooler now...not that we changed much but with a roommate the room felt different, more alive.

I was glad V had joined me...I would have been pretty lonely without him.

We were both exhausted.

It was past midnight and we sat on our beds breathing heavily.

"I think we should get to bed V, we have shcool tomorrow"

But by the time I turned round Vaicey was fast asleep on his bed.

I turned out the candles and drew my curtains.

It had been the best day of my life.

I'd made friends.

I made a BEST friend.

And even met the most handsome boy known to man kind.

Everything was just so...amazing here.

I'd always felt like there was more to life.

And I was right...I mean there's a whole other world!

Filled with magic, adventures, love and mysteries.

By now I'd completely erased Delilah and Carly from my mind.

I was too happy to be thinking of them.

It really was a dream come true.
