"Look." Sally sighed. "I didn't want to make enemies with you immediately. Apparently though you don't care. So I'd appreciated it if you stopped looking at me like I'm a piece of crap, and get on with turning your stuff into birds. It'd save both of us a bit of hassle."
Draco's eyes slanted ever more, until he looked down again and smirked. Sally narrowed her eyes and turned away from him, watching one of her birds zoom around Neville's head, pooing on him as it flew away.

As they discussed what he was taking for his O.W.Ls that year, Sally thought about the Draco that she'd spent the last hour with. It was odd. Normally, he was ignorant and insulting, an angry expression permanently fixed on his face. However, tonight he'd been fairly polite, and now was chatting away happily. Confusing as it was, she had to admit, she'd enjoyed the last hour, and when on his own Draco could be sort of nice.

Suddenly they heard a voice call down from the bottom of the stairs. "Oi, Hannah! You up there?"
Sally recognised the voice of Ron and raised an eyebrow as Hannah turned red. "Yeah, I'll be down in a second!"
"Is there something you aren't telling me, my helpful little friend?"
"Erm..."

Think it's time my best mate was in the chapter summary, don't you? More Sally & Draco stuff in this chapter too.
Please R+R. The reads keep going up but damn, I feel rather unloved.

The story of how Sally and Hannah ended up going to Hogwarts, among other things. Explanatory, but I haven't revealed all. I'm saving the rest for later :D

Fred learns to ride a bike! Haha. Call it light hearted if you wish, but still. Back at Hogwarts now. The story will continue!

The portrait swung open and they stepped through, Sally still laughing about something Fred had said about Filch before entering the common room. However, when she saw two familiar people on the sofa, her laughing ceased immediately.
