Okaaaay, so this is boring. I've been on the Hogwarts Express for 2 hours, and no one has even looked at me. I tried to join a group of girls but they kicked me out. So I'm just sitting alone, reading my charms and tranfiguration books AGAIN. For the 5th time in these two hours. THE 5TH TIME IN 2 HOURS! Okay, deep breaths, Diane. Draco immediately joined a group and left me alone. Hey, at least I'm good at charms and transfiguration now. My mind strayed to houses. I always liked Hufflepuffs, since everyone thought they were weak, so if I was one, I could show them that Hufflepuffs weren't weak like they thought. But Father wanted me to be Slytherin like him and Mother. Draco went along with Father and he wants to be a Slytherin. Mother told me that anything was fine as long as I did my best. I wanted to be a Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff. I heard a knock on the door and it slid open. "Hi. Is it fine if I sit with you?" the girl in the doorway asked. I nodded and she sat across from me. We studied each other and then she smiled. "I'm Elara Grace. Muggleborn, I guess?" she said. "What do you mean, I guess?" I asked. "I don't really know my mom. Actually, the only memory of her I have is her cradling me as a baby." Elara answered. "Oh. I'm Diane Malfoy. Technically Diana, but I prefer Diane." I said, smiling. Elara was really pretty. "You know, Diane, you're really pretty. My hair isn't nearly as nice as yours." I stared at Elara. "Did you just call me pretty?" I asked her, certain she was talking to someone else. "Yes... why? Oh no, don't cry!" I started crying with joy right there. No one ever called me pretty, except for my mother. I wiped my tears and said "Thanks, Lara. I needed that." "Lara?" "Oh wait, Lara's me, right Diane? Diaaane?" Elara called. I could hear her calling me, but it was strong. I couldn't stay here anymore. If I did, who knows what will happen? I got up and said "Sorry, Elara. I have to go." "What? But... but what about me? Don't you want to be friends?" Elara gasped. "I do, but I can't stay with you right now. I'll be back, promise." I said, opening the window. I faintly heard Elara talking, and I jumped out.
