Alex stood outside the door of the library trying to hold onto five books at once.He had gotten to Hogwarts early this year to hang a jump start on his classes. He was one of the first students to get here, there were maybe five kids here already. He was a bit surrpised that he wasn't the first but shrugged that thought off as he made his way into the brightly lit room.
Once inside he made his way to the desk at the front of the room so he could drop off his old books. No one was near the old desk not even Hermione.He wassure he had spotted the Gryffindor in the Halls just the other day. He carefully stacked the books on one corner of the desk and readjusted his backpack as he made his way into the stacks.
He wandered up and down the aisles aimlessly for a few mintues before he headed to the charms section. He had a few books on his list that he wanted to pick up before anyone else got to them. He stopped in the middle of the Charms section and started to run a hand over the bindings of the books intent on finding the ones he needed.

Kestral was in the Dark Arts section of the library when she heard the doors open with a creak. She glanced up from the book that was in her hands to see the back of someone's blonde head. She tilted her head as her mind ran though the faces that she had seen so far this year. When no name popped into her head she shrugged and turned her attention back to the leather bound book in her hands.
Draco had suggested the book to her earlier that day.She had told him about the small worry that she had..She had missed a great deal of DADA the last year she was at Salem.Looking back on that time in her life she wondered why she kept cutting that class when it could prove useful in it's own time.Sighing she closed the book and added it to the growing pile that she had started on the floor.

Alex pulled a dark blue bookoff the shelf and started skimming though it. He really didn't need it, it wasn't on this list but it looked really intresting.Shrugging he added it to the other two books he had found. Hearing a sigh he looked around. He had been sure that no one had come into the room since he started looing for his books but that didn't mean that there wasn't someone already in here.
Taking his small stack of books Alex walked over to the nearest table and sat them down.He added his shoulder bag to the small pile before heading off in the direction he had heard the sigh come from.Peeking around one of the corners he spotted the back of a girls head.

Kestral looked up when she felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up.She looked around from her spot on the floor.She had found a really intersting book and had sat down to go over it better.She looked both ways but didnt spot anything that might have caused her to have that odd feeling. She looked back at her book feeling angry.It seemed lately that her life was getting odder and odder as time went by.
Maybe Draco was right She mused to herself.She turned a page without really seeing the words that were on the page.She closed her eyes as she thought about what Draco had said this morning in the Great Hall.She wondered how she would go about looking into her family's dark past without her father knowning.Maybe they have some helpful books here Kestral thought to herself.

Alyson entered the library with her bag full of books. She didn't expect many people to be in there, but was surprised to find a few people were already occupying a few tables.
She smiled and sat herself down at an empty table. Alyson was deep into her studying when she heard the library door open. One person, a boy, entered. She didn't know him, but recognized him from somewhere. Alyson noticed that the boy belonged to the Hufflepuff house. She smiled and returned to her studying.
Alyson was in the middle of practicing a charm for Professor Flitwick when she heard the door open once more. This time, however, she knew the girl that entered. Kestral Blake, friend to Draco To-Good-To-Be-Friends-With-a-Gryffindor Malfoy. She smirked wondering what the Slytherin could possibly have to do in the library.
Alyson saw the Hufflepuff boy stand up straight. He seemed to know someone had noticed him. Alyson looked and noticed that Kestral was staring him down. Clutching her bravery, she stood from the table and approached the Hufflepuff boy.
She tapped him on the shoulder and watched as he turned around.
"Hi." she said. "I'm Alyson. Alyson Granger to be perfectly honest." she held out her hand waiting for him to introduce himself, sending a slight smirk at the Slytherin. Alyson sometimes wondered whether she should have been in Slytherin, what with the way she acts. Realzing what her expression looked like, she cleared her face and looked back at the Hufflepuff boy with a sincere smile.

Alex jumped when a hand touched the backof his shoulder.Turning away from the book he had been about to pick up he spotted a Brown haired girl smiling at him.It wasn't the same girl he had spotted earlier but he smiled and stuck out a hand for her to shake.Alex wondered if she had been in here the whole time seeing as he hadnt heard the door open again.
Shrugging his weird thoughts off Alex turned his attention back to the girl in front of him. "Names Alex Hamiltion".
Peeking around the girl he spotted the dark haired girl from earlier now sitting at a table skimming though a huge leather bound book.Feeling like he had done something wrong he took his eyes off the unknown girl.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to startle you." Alyson said smiling and blushing.
"I was just in here looking some stuff up when I saw you and Kestral come in." Alyson watched Alex peer around her and she turned around to see him looking at Kestral Blake.
"You know her?" she inquired. Alyson remembered, all too well, the incident where she and Malfoy had been talking. She knew that he wasn't as bad or as mean as he made himself out to be. She hates remembering it, but she remembered when she used to actually have a crush on the boy. She could see past his protective shell right into his soul, she knew things, although she didn't always know how. Shaking these thoughts from her mind, she turned back to Alex and waited.

Alex blushed at being caught looking at the unknown girl in the corner again. Running a hand though his blonde hair gave him a moment to cool his flushed cheeks before he answered the innocent question that was asked of him.
"Actually I haven't meet her yet" Alex said once he was sure his skin tone had gone back to normal."You know her name? Can I ask how?" Alex instantly felt like biting his tongue. He just had to blurt everything out in his quest for friends.He wondered briefly why he always had to come on so strong. He hoped he hadn't startled the girl in front of him with his rapid questioning.
"Sorry about that" Alex said sure that his cheeks were red once again."I haven't meet anyone new in awhile". He shuffled his feet as he waited for Alyson to answer him.

Alyson held back from rolling her eyes. She didn't really want to talk about Kestral Blake. She didn't want to give Alex the wrong impression of her. It wasn't in Alyson's nature to talk badly about someone.
"I know her yea. Only because I was talking with one of her friends and she walked in. She wasn't very nice to me, but I don't know. She may be a fairly pleasant person to hang out with." Alyson shrugged a little. She felt that she did fairly well at telling Alex about her.
Alyson gave Alex a sympathetic smile when he mentioned new people.
"It's fine. I know what it's like. I don't have very many friends actually. I usually keep to myself. I have a problem with trusting people." Alyson smiled again and wondered why she felt so comfortable around Alex. He seemed sweet. And really nice.
"So what exactly are you looking for in here?" she asked motioning around the library.

Alex looked around waving his hands around a bit.The library seemed empty even with the three students that were now milling about each busy with whatever task they had in front of them.
"Trying to get some extra reading in before the hordes of student make the library their personal stomping grounds. I hate how loud it gets in here when there are more than ten people studying. "Alex sighed as he ran a hand though his hair once more. He pointed back over towards his table letting Alyson see the pile of books he had already picked out.
"Its mostly Charms books,I really like Charms so i was going to try to do some extra credit work this year."

Kestral glanced up from her small stack of books when the sound of quiet talking reached her ears. Craning her head slightly she was sure that she heard her name mentioned. Narrowing her eyes she made out Alyson Granger talking to the boy that had entered not to long ago. Looks like the Gryffindor know who the new boy was Kestral thought to herself the book in her lap forgotten for a moment.
She frowned slightly at the smirk that Alyson tossed over her shoulder as she started chatting the blonde boy up.She sank back down in her chair when she noticed she had raised up in her seat at smug look that Alyson had sent her way. Tapping a finger on the scarred wood of the table Kestral pondered what had fueled that look.
Kestral's wandering mind drought her back to the moment where she had found Draco in a empty classroom. She didn't know what she had missed but she knew that Alyson had tryed to befriend the older Slytherin boy and gotten rejected. Nothing personal Kestral expected seeing as Granger was muggle born and Draco just didn't want to be friends with her. If his father ever found out he was friends with some one with the last name Granger he would freak out something wicked bad.

Alex crossed his arms in front of his chest as he waited for Alyson to answer him.He had caught her sneaking looks at Kestral out of the corners of her eyes.He wondered if the two didnt get along for some reason. It would make sense seeing as how one was in Slytherin colors and the other was in Gryffindor colors. Alex watched as Alyson stood silently.
"What brings you in here,You studying?" Alex asked hoping to draw the Gryyfindor in talking once more.
