After transfiguration, as Draco was getting up to leave, Tracey Davis, Lily Moon, and Bethany Runcorn approached him and the Gryffindor girls. Tracey short brown hair and brown eyes, and was adorable with her glasses on, Lily was going to be a beauty when she was older, with hair as white as snow that went halfway down her back and light blue eyes, and Bethany's hair was of similar length, though much more wavy, and golden blond instead of white. Her eyes were a deep green that matched the green of Slytherin house,and her physique was already athletic.
Whereas Tracey's looks made Draco imagine a valuable but fragile porcelain doll that must be protected, and Lily was like a ballerina, Bethany looked like a brawler, like an actually fit version Millicent Bullstrode. If she kept her figure as she grew older, Draco figured that that Bethany would grow into what one might call a blond bombshell.
Really, with looks like hers, Draco was surprised that she never got a mention in the books "Hello Ladies." Draco greeted the trio "Lets see if I recall correctly from the sorting ceremony. Tracey, Bethany, and Lily." he indicated each of them in turn.
Tracey and lLily both blushed but Bethany laughed and was amused that he remembered their names. "You're one of those kinds of boys?" Bethany asked Draco.
"The kind that tries to memorize the names of all the cute girls I meet. Yeah, I wont deny it." Draco admitted with zero shame.
Bethany, who had expected him to try to deny it, laughed out loud "Bold. You are definitely bold." she admitted before laughing a bit longer and finally recovering.
Draco had a sense of deja vu , like Bethany reminded him of someone he had once met before, but when he tried to figure it out he couldn't think of anyone like that. He couldn't shake the feeling of familiarity, but he couldn't do anything about it so he brushed the matter aside. "Well, we should get going. We don't want to be late for Potions class" Draco suggested "We can talk on the way."
The other Gryffindor boys, Ron and Theo's group had already left, so Draco started heading out, accompanied now by the three Slytherin girls in addition to Lavender, Parvati, Daphne, Noelle, and Holly.
Since it was their first day, the girls of the two houses had not yet ingrained prejudices in deep, so they were able to get alone fine, talking about Draco as though he were not walking alongside the group. Draco, however, rather enjoyed being the topic of discussion among all of the girls, and he made zero effort to hide how amused he was by the conversations.
Tracey Davis, who was observing Draco rather then trying to follow the conversation among the other girls, decided to instead speak to Draco "You like when people talk about you like this?" she asked Draco.
"When it is cute girls and I've given them nothing to complain about it is really fun." Draco admitted to her "All eight of you can be considered cute, so it feels amazing."
"I'm cute?" Tracey asked with surprise.
"Maybe for you, Tracey, a better word would be adorable, but I'm sure that when you are older you'll still become beautiful."
"You're unique" Tracey noted to Draco "I don't think that most guys our age would be flirting so much, or at all."
Draco shrugged "I am more mature then average, that's all." he insisted as they were walking into the Potions classroom, their group having arrived last, but still on time, and went to take their seats. Draco had previously warned the Gryffindors about Professor Snape's unique personatilty, so once they entered the classroom everyone took their seats and became quiet and waited patiently.
A couple minutes later, Professor Snape came out of his office "There will be no foolish wand waving or silly incantations in this class. As such, I don't expect many of you to appreciate the subtle science and exact art that is potion-making. However, for those select few...who possess the predisposition...I can teach you how to bewitch the mind and ensnare the senses...I can tell you how to bottle fame, brew glory, and even put a stopper in death," he noticed Holly writing something "Miss Potter...Our newest celebrity..." Snape approached her and actually took a look at what she was writing "Taking notes, very good."
The fact that she looked so much like her mother and not like her father had indeed softened his feelings towards Holly, Draco noted, but he was still going to test her "Tell me, what would I get if I added powdered root of Asphodel with an infusion or wyrmwood?"
Holly was momentarily surprised when she realized he was asking her this "Dr....draught of the living dead, sir."
"Where, Miss Potter, would you look if I asked you to find me a bezoar?" Snape asked her next, previously surprised by her answer.
"The stomach of a goat, sir." Holly was feeling relieved that Draco had given her access to books so long ago and that she'd had so much time to study them.
"And what is the difference between Monks hood and wolf bane?" Snape asked her, growing more intrigued.
"Isn't that....a trick question? Aren't they the same thing?" Holly asked with confusion.
"It seems like there is hope for you Miss Potter." Snape answered matter-of-factly "Five points to Gryffindor."
Snape then began his lecture and everyone was taking notes, including Draco, though he didn't really need too, as this was all easy stuff to him. Professor Snape subsequently started asking Theo and Draco questions throughout the class, and they both answered each question flawlessly, demonstrating their deep knowledge of Potions.
After asking Holly the initial three questions, Snape did not attempt to bully her, as she reminded him of her mother.
When the class ended, Draco and eight girls headed up to lunch in the Great Hall,
"Enjoy your lunch." Bethany said to Draco before she and the other two Slytherin girls headed to their table and the Gryffindors went to their table.

Just a heads up. This week I will upload today and on Webnesday, and starting next week I will be uploading every Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday.
I was planning to start with the three times per week schedule this week, but then I found 'Primordial phoenix in Marvel' by Reaper007, which is a blatant rip-off of one of my new story ideas, so I'll be focusing on starting my Marvel Fanfic which I just uploaded chapter two for. After this week I will put that novel on hiatus until I finish one of my two stories, I just want to be able to avoid accusations of myself copying him when he copied me.
