"Herminoe, where is the potions class taught by Mr. Snape?" Mei, asked running down her list of classes.

"Mei, we have the same class, just follow me." Hermione grabbed Mei's hand, as they passed students in the hall to head down to the dungeon

"RON! HARRY!" Hermione screamed, as the two girls swiftly passed Goyle, seemed to be lost.

Two boys turned around, to see Hermione running up to them, with Mei still struggling to not let go of her hand. Hermione, just smiled, and introduced Mei. They all nodded, shyly and headed to class. Mei, looked around disgusted at all the bubbling and slimy things in the pots from before.

"Ahh, Ms. Kuran." A cold voice behind her declared.

Slowly, she turned around, as the trio took their spots, "I've heard many things of you because of Mr. Malfoy."

"And I wish for you not to speak of any of it." She scoffed, heading to an empty seat beside a boy sandy coloured hair.

Her eyes examined his uniform. His shirt wasn't tucked in and there was many stains. Either way, he wasn't tidy, but she knew she couldn't just base him on his looks.

"Hi, I'm Mei Kuran." He had finally looked over and smiled, his eyes almost glistening.

"Seamus Finnigan is the name, you must be that new girl, right?" He asked, in a Irish accent.

Mei smiled, "Hope we can be friends." reaching out her hand, but was stopped by Professor Snape.

"I advise you to not touch him, if you want to be alright for the rest of the year. You should probably move next to Malfoy, if that isn't a problem." He declared, making the whole class turn around.

All eyes were on her, and not wanting to cause drama she stood up and headed to the empty seat by the slytherin boy. He glared at Mei, with his grey eyes, and Mei did the same. Only stopping once when a fellow student looked their way.

"Now with the person beside you try to make a Amortentia, you won't really be learning this until next year, but I want to see if you could handle this. Also, does anyone know what is an Amortentia?" Snape asked, looking at the sea of bored children.

By the surprise of everyone in class Mei had raised her hand, before Hermione, "It's a powerful love potion, that has different smells to each person."

Snape smiled, which was odd to see, "It seems you have learned this already, haven't you?" Mei nodded.

"Okay, everyone try to make one." Snape told everyone as, he left the room.

Mei smirked, as he put some ingredients into the cauldron, "I bet, you smell Harry Potter's hair, don't you?" She asked, putting more things into the cauldron.

"And I bet you smell ahh...." He trailed on, not thinking of a comeback, "You know what forget it!" Suddenly, Mei could feel some ones hand on her shirt almost ripping it.

"Why did you do to Draco, that made him yell at you, ching chong?" She asked, referring her to her Asians looks.

"Why should you care?" She scoffed, making Pansy Parkinson almost go up in flames.

Her grip went tighter on her, but Mei didn't struggle, all she did was reach for her wand in her pocket, "Expelliarmus!" Mei yelled directing her wand to Pansy's stomach making her fly to across the room.

Snape had finally, came in but just to see Pansy rubbing her head, as she got up and Mei with a wand in her hand.

"Detention Ms. Kuran!" He yelled, as she went back to her seat.

"Wow your amazing, Mei!" Ron yelled, as people sat down for lunch.

"You beat Hermione to a question and made a perfect disarming spell!" Harry continued, amazed just like Ron.

She giggled, "But you're the boy who lived! I can't compared to that."

Both Harry and Mei were laughing. People passed them with different emotions. Some were jealous like, Malfoy, but some seemed happy, like the Weasley twins, who knew a new thing to tease Harry. After, all the thing with Malfoy had finally warned down.

Draco and Harry were a couple, but it seemed like they weren't anymore. Harry tried to contact him over, the summer, but it failed several times.

"Mei! Sit, with us. we've missed you so much!" Her best friend Jade cried leading her to the Ravenclaw table were the rest of the girls were.

Once, she was out of sight, Hermione sighed of relief. It seemed her new "best friend" had turned out to be, well better than she was. She wasn't number one of looks and Mei wasn't either, but the way Ron and Harry were amazed of her skills in class, made her jealous.

"Your lucky." Seamus declared, as he sat across from Harry sitting beside Neville, "You got to talk to the prettiest girl, I had ever seen."

"Well, you got to sit beside her in class!"Ron retorted, making Hermione even more jealous.

Trying to changed the subject, she saw Viktor Krum at the Slytherin table, staring at her. She quickly, turned away, remembering what she heard Professor McGonagall say to Snape. 

"Since, Viktor Krum is here, the Durmstrung boys and the Gryffindor team will be competing against each other for a fun quiditch game, since Gryffindor won last year." She declared, as immediately all the boys turned around to her.

"Really?" Ron asked, staring at Viktor Krum, as if he was a girl in love.

Hermione nodded, "Just wait and see."
