7 years earlier
Kali found her self standing in front of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, her fingers intertwined with friend Hermione’s hand, she had met her on the train, her other hand was held by her friend Harry and Ronald held on to Hermione’s other hand.
“You guys ready?” Harry asked excitedly “Yeah but I’m nervous about the sorting ceremony Fred and George told me that it’s some sort of extremely hard test that you you take in front of the entire school.” Ron whispers to us shakily and we turn and look at him blankly.
When they were aloud in they all walked nervous but smiling. When they got almost to the great hall still on a staircase a lady in green robes came over to them and said “hello children the Sorting Ceremony will begin momentarily.” And she walked off.
Kali’s POV:
“Hermione what do you know what the great hall looks like?” I asked looking around the part of the castle we were in “I don’t know but from what I’ve seen I bet it’s going to be bea-” she was cut of by a cute little blonde boy “so it’s true then what they’re saying on the train?” He said walking over to us “Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts.” After he said that everyone started whispering: “Harry Potter?” “The, Harry Potter?” “Wow!”. “This is Crabbe and Goyle, and I’m Malfoy, Draco Malfoy.” He said sticking his hand out to Harry for him to shake, I didn’t think Harry would take Malfoy’s hand but he did then he looked at us and he stoped when he saw me. He actually started to blush “hey Potter what’s your friend’s name?” He said looking at me “oh her she is-” I cut him off “Kali, Mikaela Riddle! Kali is my nickname.” I smiled “Cute.. I mean cool, hey Mikaela.” He smiled back he stepped down and stood next to me and Harry he looked at me and smiled “hey Kali what house are you hoping for?” “Oh Slytherin for sure just like my brother Tom. He is in his second year.” I said looking at him “so your brother is Tom Riddle? And they are ok with this?” He asked raising his eyebrows “Yes I told them everything about me and my brother and that we’re nothing like our parents.” Said as he just nodded.
Next thing we knew the lady in the green robes came back “Hello children, looks like I put the list in the wrong room but anyway follow me.” We walked through the doors to the great hall I felt a hand grab mine and I looked over at Draco who had must have snuck past Hermione to stand next to me and I smiled at the thought that he was holding my hand and he must have seen me because he had looked at me and winked.
We stoped in front of a old stool with a old patched hat on top of it “when I call your name you will sit down and the sorting hat will sort you into your houses.” The lady said opening the scroll “Hermione Granger.” She said as Hermione walked up to the stool “ah not a bad mind very witty and kind, smart very smart I know GRYFFINDOR.” We all started clapping as she got up and smiled and skipped over towards the Gryffindor table, “Draco Malfoy.” Draco looked back at us as he walked up to the stool “SLYTHERIN!” The hat yelled before it had touched his head and the Slytherin table roared with cheerers and claps as he walked over, “Ronald Weasley.”
“Ah another Weasley I know just what to do with you! GRYFFINDOR!” Then all you could hear were the Gryffindor table clapping and cheering, “Mikaela Riddle.” I walked up to the hat and the whole Hall was silent “Weird? You are smart very, talented ah yes, cunning much so, but yet extremely kind, also ambitious, but where to put you? With your brother? Yes. Right then SLYTHERIN!” The whole hall burst in cheers and claps as I walked over to the Slytherin table, “Harry Potter.” The hall went dead quiet except for the whispers “interesting very interesting..” Harry looks up at the hat “brave and kind hearted, snippy and a habit of being sarcastic, I look over at him nervously and I giggle softly as the hat speaks because it’s describing Harry perfectly. Finally the hat stops for a second before yelling “GRYFFINDOR!” I clap my hands loudly cheering for him as he walks over to the Gryffindor table.
After dinner Me, Draco, Harry, Ron, and Hermione are walking to our houses. When me and Draco get to the Slytherin house, when we walk in I see Tom and I run over to him hugging him tightly “Tom! Hi!” He smiles hugging me back
“Hey Kaela how are you doing?”
“Oh I’m great! Exited actually I’m just happy I’m in the same house as you and that my friends are in the same house.” He laughs and let’s go “I can tell you’ve met Malfoy,” I look over at Draco and back at him “is that okay that I’m friends with him?” He nods “yeah it’s great, dad is good friends with his dad.” “Oh okay,” I turn back to him “wanna go find our rooms?!” I walk over to him taking his hand “yeah I would!” He says and I pull him to the stairs running up them.
After about 15 minutes looking for our rooms I see a door that carves two names into it “Draco Lucius Malfoy” and “Mikaela Jane Riddle” my mouth drops and I call him over “woah we share a room!” I practically squeal “I’ll only share a room with you if you don’t do that” he smiles opening the door “makes sense” I say as I walk in, I run over to a bed throwing myself onto it claiming it as “mine”. I sit up looking at Draco who is sitting at the end of my bed hugging his knees into his chest “I think I’m gonna enjoy sharing a room with you Kaela” I blush crossing my legs and putting my hands in my lap “I think I’m going to enjoy living with you for the next seven years too Draco” I smile as I talk “well I have to unpack, I have a lot of things.” As I love to get off my bed I grab my trunk sitting in front of my dresser, I look over and see Draco laying upside down off the side of my bed watching me as I open my trunk “seven years? Wow that’s a long time” I look over at his red face “yep seven years of this” I move some hair out of his face and return back to putting my clothes away “you know you don’t have to put all those away now you can do that tomorrow.” I glare at him “I’ll do it when I want to and that is now.” He raises his eyebrows “well excuse me Miss Riddle” I laugh and I continue to put my clothes away.
After and hour of talking and putting things away i finally finish “well finally your done” I roll my eyes and I get up sitting next to him hugging him “what’s this for?” He says hugging me back “shh it’s gonna ruin the moment” I say covering his mouth with my hand, I lay him down still hugging him and I bury my face into the crook of his neck “Draco?” My voice muffled as I talk “yes Kaela?” I close my eyes “don’t leave please nor do anything stupid while we’re here” I feel his face move meaning he’s smiling “I promise I won’t leave nor do anything stupid” my body relaxes against his and I slowly start to fall asleep.the last thing I hear before I fall asleep is: “I promise..”.
