It was time for Dinner,Alena was already in the great hall with some other first year girls while Ara and Bree where in their common room.

Ara working on her homework and Bree sleeping like she planned to.The common room was empty as everyone was at dinner,So it was quite except the fire crackling,Ara's quill scratching across the parchment,And Bree's slight snoring.

Potions was Ara's favorite class hands down,She was good at it,New every potion Severus did,Which was most likely all of them,And she was always first done before the smart Ravenclaws,It made her feel good and her house was proud of her getting points.

"Stupid Harry freaking Potter always getting everything he wants handed to him"

Hooch heard her and took one point off for bad mouthing another student but again all Bree heard was 'Bad mouthing the boy-who-lived' putting Bree in a mad mood.

Ara didn't blame Bree though,Ara didn't like Harry either even through she new her parents where great friends that didn't mean Ara had to bow down to him.

Ara was just finishing her potions essay,When Bree fell off the couch a thud

"Owwww"Bree moans rubbing her head making Ara giggle as she turns to her friends

"Are you ok?"She asks between giggles

Bree rolls her eyes"Yeah,What time is it?"

"Dinner"Ara stretches her arms"It just started like twenty minuets ago"

Bree stands up and nods"Uh yeah,I'm gonna go down,Or well I guess up since this is the basement"Bree grins at Ara"You wanna come?"

Ara shakes her head"No thanks"

"I'll bring you something back?"Bree offers

"Something small"Ara shrugs

Bree grins and walks out.leaving Ara alone

Bree grins and walks out.leaving Ara alone

Ara turns back to her essay and starts to write again

Bree grins and walks out.leaving Ara alone

Ara turns back to her essay and starts to write again

'If the porcupine quills are added before the cauldron ,And burns holes in people's shoes-'

She stops again as the door opens,A creaking sound snaps Ara out of her train of thought,She looks behind herself to see a boy her age,He had brown hair and golden brown eyes,He had a scar on his neck that Ara could see,He looked tired

"I thought everyone was at Dinner"He says more to himself

Ara shrugs"Big lunch and my friends gave me some of their candy their Mom sent"Fred and George gave Ara some candy they still had from the train,Ara loved chocolate frogs,Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans,and Chocolet wands,

"Oh"The boy sits across from Ara at the table"My name is Alrek Alexander,But you can call me Al or Rick if you want"He puts his hand out

Ara sets her quill down and shakes his hand"Ara Lynx Black"Her mind drifts off to why she kept her fathers last name

"Lynx?"Alrek grins"I like your middle name,Mine's Alec"He let's go of Ara's hand

Ara giggles"Alrek Alec Alexander?"

"Triple A"Alrek grins"You know what?Call me Triple A and I'll call you...Lynx"

Ara starts to laugh"Alright,Triple A,Why did you leave the feast?"

Alrek's smile turns slightly"I get bad headaches when I'm around loud things for to long"

"So no quittage games for you"Ara says making Alrek laugh

"I guess not,But I never liked quittage anyways"He shrugs then looks at her parchment"I'm going to bed early,Goodnight Lynx"He stands up and Ara calls after him as he go's to his dorm

"Night Triple A"

She could hear her new friend laughing as he reached the room,Ara smiles and picks up her things and walks to her dorm.
