When Ace arrived at the restaurant in the morning, she saw several people gathered together from a distance. She saw Lily's iconic long red curly hair, so she walked over.

"Lily, you shouldn't be with a Slytherin."

"Sev is my friend."

"You know, Lily, what kind of people Slytherins are."

"Not so Sif."

Several Gryffindors were arguing around Lily and Snape. Unexpectedly hearing such remarks on the first day, Ace frowned.

"They are all arrogant and love to bully others..."

"Sirius, are you going to cause a dispute at breakfast?" Hearing Sirius' words, Ace stopped him from continuing, "There are also these students who don't know their names. The purpose of the Hogwarts branch." It’s about letting like-minded people learn together, not to make you biased.”

Several people blushed at being told this, and Sirius said unconvinced: "Gryffindor shouldn't be together with Slytherin..."

"Okay, Sirius, don't forget that your family is all Slytherins!" Ace scolded, watching a few people reluctantly go back to have breakfast, she then looked at Lily and Snape, Lily still Somewhat angry, with his face flushed, Snape stood aside silently with his lips pursed, looking at the backs of James and Sirius.

"Thank you, Ace."

"You're welcome, Lily, don't worry about these things. Go back to eat quickly, otherwise you won't be able to make it to class." Ace patted Lily on the shoulder and walked towards Asta, who had been waiting for her.Seeing that the matter was resolved, the prefects of the two colleges stopped paying attention and hurried to class. The fifth grade courses were very heavy.

Snape returned to the long table. Avery and Mulciber sat next to him respectively and said to him: "You should knock them down. I really don't know what's wrong with that person in the Black family. He hates nobility." Slytherin!"

"Yes, look at them, Gryffindors are all dirty Mudbloods this year!"

Snape glanced at Lily who was complaining to her roommate. Without saying anything, he silently stood up and left, holding the book and walking towards the classroom.

……

In the first Potions class, Professor Slughorn asked them to prepare a potion to cure scabies.Due to the breakfast incident, Lily chose to be with Henar and Snape with Avery.

Snape deftly ground six poisonous snake teeth into fine powder. The preparation of this potion was very simple for him. When Avery was about to throw the porcupine quill directly into the crucible that was still boiling, Snape suddenly Stopping him, he lifted the cauldron away from the flames.When the pink smoke appeared and the potion turned blue, Snape smiled with satisfaction, and Avery gave him a thumbs up.

Snape bottled the potion and handed it to the desk, receiving an o and an appreciative look from Professor Slughorn.Snape glanced at Sirius and James who were busy in the corner, with a hint of disdain on his face, and then looked at Lily. They were doing well there.So he left with the book in his arms, planning to go to the library to have a look.

The usual foursome of Ace, Asta, Diane and Orville sit together in the library. Although Ace often goes to the Room of Requirement, she has to appear in other places on campus from time to time to avoid everyone thinking she has disappeared. .

Orville looked sad and looked at the potions paper with p in front of him with despair, "Help, why do I have to study potions!"

"You should reflect on why you were able to get P in the hands of the easy-to-talk Professor Slughorn, Orville." Diane said mercilessly to Orville, "And not only did you get Ace's exam points, but also I’ll help you review!”

The excited voice attracted a glance from Mrs. Pince, which scared Diane to quickly lower her head and stick out her tongue.

Ace looked at Asta's report card and nodded at the A's in her Herbal Medicine and History of Magic classes.Asta immediately spread her hands helplessly, indicating that she had tried her best.

"I'm going to get you some books. You have to read them. Asta, I'll watch you." After Ace finished speaking, Asta immediately lowered his lips and glared at Orville who was gloating about his misfortune. One glance.

"You do too, Orville." Diane immediately added, walking towards the bookshelf with Ace. Orville couldn't be happier now. Thinking about the stack of books that was at least fifteen inches thick, he even wanted to cry.

Ace's eyes wandered around the bookshelf containing books on herbal medicine. Just as he was about to reach out and take down "Three Hundred Common Herbs", a thin hand also stretched out at the same time, touching hers. The hand looked like It was a bit burned and he shrank back.

Ace turned around, it was Snape, his ears were a little red, "You, you can take it."

Ace smiled, narrowed his gray-green eyes, and waved his hand: "No, you still need it. I can get other books, just for review. What are you doing with this book? Your herbal medicine class hasn't started yet, right? , I remember correctly that your first class was Potions class with Gryffindor?"

Snape nodded and took down the book from the bookshelf. The sleeves of his robe slid down, and Ace saw that his forearms were so thin that even the blood vessels could be seen clearly. "Yes, it's a potion to treat scabies. It's very easy." It’s simple, I’m done and I’m out.”

"You should eat more, Severus. The roasted lamb chops made by the house elves taste pretty good." Ace frowned and then laughed again, looking at Snape, "Your talent for potions is really good." It's very good, you can tell from the cold medicine you sent me before."

Snape raised his head and looked at the girl in front of him. Her smooth and soft curly hair, fair and rosy skin, exquisite robe, a skirt with lace, and shiny black leather shoes all showed her Pampered style.Snape thought that after all, several of his mother's old books were related to potions, but he did like potions more.The potion was the only solace in little Snape's gloomy childhood.

"Thank you, you are also very smart, Ace, even though you are a Hufflepuff." Snape came back to his senses, moved his eyes to the bookshelf next to him, and answered her.

Ace took out a few more books from the bookshelf and held them with difficulty, "Actually, the Sorting Hat wanted to sort me into Ravenclaw, but I objected, haha. You choose slowly, I'll go over. I recommend you read it again. Read that one, bye."

Snape took out the book that Ace was talking about, looked at it, and thought it was suitable, so he took it together and left.

……

Soon it's the Quidditch match, the first one is Gryffindor vs Slytherin.Ace was led by Astara towards the Quidditch pitch. She didn't really want to come. Thinking about having to say hello to everyone until the game started, Ace felt sour.She had always just wanted to show up at Hufflepuff games.

"Stop reading every day, Ace, just come with me to read. After all, Uncle Fielding is also from the physical education department." Asta held Ace's arm and shook her arm, making Ace raise his hands to beg for mercy. No one can refuse the coquettishness of such a beautiful girl, not even Ace.

Mulciber, who was behind, looked at the two girls in front with surprise in his eyes, and said to Snape and Avery: "Do you know, those two are the flowers of the second-year Hufflepuff school? I don’t know who will be lucky enough to pick these two flowers in the future.”

"Of course, but that Miss Foley is not easy to deal with. You'd better not provoke her. I heard from my parents that she used a curse to beat senior Yaxley to death in the fourth grade last year, and Senior Malfoy is very Defend her. But her father and mother next to her are both Muggle-born wizards." Avery remembered what he saw at the Holy 28 clan banquet, then glanced at Asta and said nonchalantly.

Snape also glanced at the two of them, then lowered his head, "Miss Foley is very smart."

"Look, Prefect Malfoy will definitely teach them a lesson this time, stupid lion!" However, neither of them answered and quickly changed the subject.

Several people arrived at the stadium together, and there were already many people there.

"Sev, Ace, Asta! Here!" Lily was sitting on the edge of the Gryffindor seats, with the Slytherin seats on the other side. She saw several people at the entrance, stood up and shouted.

"Looks like we don't need to find a special location." Astara led Ace over, fearing that Ace would suddenly change his mind and go back.Snape waved to his roommate and walked over.

"Severus, don't get too close to Gryffindor. Don't forget that you are a Slytherin."

"That's right, don't stay with that mudblood!" Avery's tone contained a hint of disgust.Snape's face darkened and he ignored their words.

Several people sat down next to each other. Snape came late and could only sit next to Ace, with Ace and Asta between him and Lily.Seeing James and his party sitting next to Lily, he frowned in disgust.

James and Sirius also saw it, and James shouted at him: "Go back to your Slytherin! Snotlout!"

"Disgusting guy, go back!"

"Haha, snot-nosed guy!"

"Shut up, James, Sirius, you are so annoying!" Lily turned to look at them and said angrily.

"Sirius, you are so uneducated now!" Asta was also a little angry. Although she didn't like the man with greasy hair and reticence, she also hated Sirius's rude behavior.

"This Mr. James Potter, is this how Mr. and Mrs. Potter taught you to get along with your classmates? Do we need to go back to Hufflepuff immediately?" Ace had never seen James before. The Potter family rarely appeared at banquets. She had only heard about it a little bit, but she didn't expect James to have such a personality.

Sirius looked at the two of them in disbelief, "Who are you from, Ace, Asta! Why are you hanging out with this snot-nosed guy!"

"Sirius, we are all classmates, and Severus doesn't do anything to you. Why do you always make trouble for him?" Ace was a little puzzled by the conflict between them.Sirius curled his lips and thought to himself, that's because you only saw him when he didn't talk back!He and his two roommates also used evil spells to attack us, although they didn't succeed.That’s because we respond quickly!

"He's just a typical Slytherin, Ace! You just didn't see it!" Sirius retorted loudly, his face turning red.

The quarrel between a few people was covered up by the cheers at the start of Quidditch, and Sirius sat back and watched the game.There were no surprises in the stadium with Lucius present. Ace had already expected the outcome, with Slytherin winning.Seeing the secret pride on Snape's lips and the provocative look in his eyes, James and Sirius wanted to say something else, but were persuaded by Lupine on their side.Ace and Asta went to the Hufflepuff-Ravenclaw match next week and didn't see Snape or the others.I have to say that compared to the fierce competition between Slytherin and Gryffindor, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff played very friendly with no ups and downs. In the end, Hufflepuff won by one point.

The days after Quidditch were uneventful, except that Ace could always see James, Sirius, Remus and Peter Pettigrew playing pranks, and the victims were often Snape and Lily.When they weren't playing pranks, they were mysteriously traveling around various places in the castle. When Ace asked about it, they even called it a mysterious place - exploring the mysterious places of Hogwarts.

Although they were dissatisfied with Ace always speaking for Snape, which they thought unilaterally, the relationship between the two of them was pretty good.After all, Ace has a good personality, and he is not the target of pranks. They saw Ace knocking Yaxley, who was already in fifth grade, into the courtyard in the corridor with their own eyes. It was really scary.Plus, with the beautiful Asta on their side, they were too embarrassed to do something too embarrassing.

……

"Severus?" Ace was surprised when he saw Snape in the library. After all, everyone had gone back and was on vacation.The reason Ace didn't come home was because her parents went to China for vacation and haven't come home yet - she didn't know much about that, and it wasn't much fun to go home alone, so she stayed in school, maybe she could be like Xi Reese and the others explored the campus as well.

"Ace, haven't you gone home either?" Snape was also a little surprised and looked at Ace and raised his eyebrows.Maybe because he was more familiar with me, his expressions and words became more frequent.

Ace put down the book, sat next to him, and nodded: "My parents were not at home, so I didn't go back. What about you?"

Snape thought of his own home, pursed his lips and replied dryly: "Me too."

The library with only three people was extremely quiet. Even though they could clearly hear their voices, Mrs. Pince did not cast a stern look. Maybe it was because of Christmas.
