Aria jumped as Michael's brother grabbed him by his robe, Aria quickly let herself fade into the shadows and headed towards the Slytherin common room. "pure-blood" Aria stated clearly when she reached the passageway to the room, the passage opened with a creak and closed behind her. She was about to hurry up the stairs to her room but someone grabbed and pulled her back. "Why were you talking to a gryffindor?" a girl sneered, causing Aria to avert her gaze. "I was just apologizing for running into him" Aria's voice was pleading, she just wanted to go to her room without any trouble for once. "That was a pretty long apology" the girl Aria now recognized as a fifth year named Jessica. Aria didn't say anything and this seemed to frustrate Jessica, causing her to be thrown on the ground, but luckily Jessica left it at that. Aria sighed, picking herself up and trudged to her room. She should of known her housemates wouldn't take kindly to her talking to the 'enemy'. Pulling her hair into a pony tail Aria changed quickly before climbing into bed, suddenly exhausted.
