Chapter Three
"Lovely."

Rosaline's P.O.V.

Rosaline, act completely normal. Try not to freak out. Armando Dippet stared at me for a while and had a smile on his face, I guess he was expecting some effort out of me.

My parents told me that they received personal reports and performances from the selected student's previous schools. I didn't worry about that because studying was kinda easy for me. I was still worrying terribly. Was that enough? I had been made prefect? Why did the Headmaster chose me?

I held my head in my hands. A part of me was surprised and the other one was happy. That meant that I had my own room. The feast was over a few minutes later and I was still frozen, until Headmaster yelled. "Off to bed now!" And I stalked out of my senses and stood up. I was about to go when;

"First years, follow me and Rose."

I turned back and saw Tom Riddle, speaking. I stared at him for a minute when he waved a hand lazily gesturing me to follow him. I followed him and we both led the first years in the common room.

It was located in the Dungeons, deep and down. It was dark and I must say I shivered and so did the first years. What a cruel place, but judging by the history of Slytherin house, it reveals the true meaning of being a slytherin; slytherins get what they want no matter what they have to go through.

We arrived at the slytherin portrait, there was a man, who asked us for the password, Tom mumbled, "Pureblood" under his breath and the door swing open, and revealed a beautiful room.

I entered and was left speechless, what a beautiful place to relax! I could see the black colored sofas along with perfect emerald colored cushions, I couldn't imagine the comfortable setup here, there was a black velvet carpet, black velvet curtains with emerald fabric, it was just indefinable. It was all so quiet and gloomy. There was also a book shelf, which consisted maximum 100 books for students to read. I couldn't hold back a smirk. But Tom interrupted my thoughts

"I'm Tom Riddle, the Slytherin prefect and she's Rosaline Evans, a prefect along with me. The dormitories for girls are upstairs to the right and boys to the left. Don't sneak in the girls dormitories, boys, you'd get thrown out. And trust me, I'd love to punish you if you shout around and cause chaos. Now get to bed." His silky voice bored, I merely scowled.

The first years seem to be getting his message and they nodded timidly, they climbed the stairs and marched into their dormitories. The elder students weren't here yet.

"Where's the Prefects room?" I asked Tom.

"Go straight, you'll find a corridor and it would have your name on it." He lazily said.

"Thank you." I muttered.

With receiving a glare, I quietly marched to my room. It had my name on it in cursive. I smiled and entered the room. It was totally different from what I was expecting. It had a double, fourposter bed with black sheets and Emerald pillows, on the side was a dresser, on the right side was a book shelf and a study table.

It was beautiful. I found my trunk leaned against the wall. I grabbed it and began taking out my clothes. My uniform, other clothes and causal. I folded my clothes and pushed it into the cupboard.

And saw a black wooden door, I opened it and found a bathroom. I went inside and placed my shampoos, soaps and conditioner. After settling I changed into my pyjamas and found myself completely sleepy. I took off my slippers and jumped on to the bed and pulled the sheets over. Tomorrow is gonna be a big day.

♢ Next Day ♢

I woke up Early the next day, aware of my responsibilities and duties of being a prefect. I sigh to myself and pushed the sheets, I stretched my arms and walked to the mirror, my hair were a bit messy and my eyes looked dead.

I chuckled at myself and marched to the bathroom, I brushed my teeth and washed my face with a Muggle liquid product. My face was clean and my eyes looked bright. I applied a thin layer of Mascara to my lashes and a little gloss to my lips. Perfect. The last thing I did was to wear my uniform.

I walked out and opened my cupboard, there it was. My uniform; black Robes, white top, grey and green tie and a black skirt. I pulled my flat shoes out, they matched my look.

I adjusted my clothing at looked at myself in the mirror. Perfect, was what I thought. I grabbed my wand and made a few Spells to style my hair, finally they looked perfect. And of course I pinned my prefects' badge onto my chest.

With a deep sigh I grabbed my wand and tucked it in my skirts' pocket. I left my room and walked in the corridors, some people were up early, I checked my wrist watch, it was six am and the feast would start in thirty minutes.

As I walked, I earned a few glares from some jealous girls. I guess they envied me because of my prefects' status. I rolled my eyes, half of the girls were crazy after Tom Riddle. So that must be another reason. I twisted my hair around my finger and walked into the Great Hall.

It was completely empty except a few students who were studying and some were chatting. I admit I felt a little lonely in front of all those students chattering with their friends. I had no friend right now. So I sat on the Slytherin table and twisted my hair again. Slowly the hall began to fill with students, now that all students arrived. Slowly the Teachers arrived. I gazed at the other tables with a bored expression. I watched as Tom Riddle Sat Beside Me.

The feast appeared and I helped myself to a few potatos and tomato sauce. After that I grabbed a slice of chocolate cake to ensure freshness. After finishing the breakfast, our plates Apparited to the kitchens itself. I watched as Our Head of House, Professor Slughorn distributed our schedules. I was taking seven subjects for my N.E.W.Ts; Transfiguration, Charms, History of Magic, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Potions, Care of Magical Creatures and Astronomy. Finally Professor Slughorn reached me and handed me my time table.

"I hope to see you in Potions, Miss Evans." He winked as I nodded.

I glanced at my timetable. First I had a free period, then I had Double Potions, Double Transfiguration then I had two free periods, Lunch, then Double Defense Against the Dark Arts. I had a huge grin on my face. This was all so awesome. I was so excited to start off my day. But then Headmaster Dippet Rose from his seat and began his speech.

"Good Morning Students! As we all know that School has just opened. And we will be having a ball in the honour of it! You shall be given instructions by your head of houses! It will take place on Monday evening! The Hogsmeade trips will be taking place on the weekend! Now off to your classes!"

I groaned, it was Tuesday and I had a few days. Who would ask me. I'd rather be in the library, studying for my N.E.W.Ts. I rested my chin on my hand and watched as students began to rush.

"Don't you have a class?" A girl asked me.

"No. Free Period. Perks of being a prefect." I winked at her.

"Hi. I'm Honey Salvere." She Smiled.

"Rose Evans." I said.

"Nice to meet you." She said,

"I guess I shall be going. See you around." I said.

Honey nodded. She had Light brown curls and deep green eyes. Honey waved at me before she left for her class, I raced into my room and grabbed my clutch bag which had the extension charm on it, I placed my books which I'll be needing for the day. I placed it on my shoulder and left to help people around. At first I roamed around the halls, then I found the library.

I pushed the door open and I entered the quiet room. I quietly went to the librarian's counter.

"I want to find books related to Wizard Families." I smiled.

"You'll find them there." She pointed towards a shelf at the end of the room.

"Thank you." I said.

I dropped my bag on the chair next to the shelf and began reading all sorts of stuff when my eyes caught something which I was eager to learn about.
