June is definitely the laziest month. It is the end to months full of advents. It is when impatient students always find a way to look past agonizing exams and only see the relaxing summer break ahead of them. June is also the hardest month to concentrate in. It's hot, you're stuck in a school classroom, there are a million other places you'd rather be; yet you're forced to cram in more information into that already exploding brain of yours. Your poor mind wanders to get some relief; your eyes drift off from the chalkboard to the window longing for a fresh breath of air and to feel the sun's warm rays on your face. And then the harsh voice of a teacher like the crack of a whip snaps you out of your trance and makes you focus on some guy who died 300 years ago. You think to yourself, who cares? Can this get any more boring? As you slip back into the cycle once again.
Many find themselves lost like this in the heat. Two such people were in the same classroom, that Friday afternoon. Both at a window seat, two rows of desks between them. They were looking down at the grounds, the drone of Mr. Binns' monotone voice in the background. These two 16-year-old teens would have hated the idea that they were alike in any way. If each of them could have it, the other would disappear off the Earth. Though, whether they liked it or not, deep down they were alike, in small ways. They didn't know it, but someone was about to impact both their lives, and force them to see those similarities.
You know exactly what's going to happen in the future. If you have clues, you still don't know the size of change it will cause you. Only after it happens, do you realize how very big, that seemingly insignificant even was. The incident in the classroom was the beginning of an event. All Draco and Harry were doing was looking out the window, watching the students stroll casually by. Both their eyes swept over the landscape, and both stopped on one person. They leaned forward and focused a little closer, completely forgetting what they were supposed to be doing. They realized, it was a girl, and there were two other people with her. One was Albus Dumbledore; his silver beard was easily recognizable. The other was the Head Girl from Ravenclaw. But who was this girl? They studied her closer. She wasn't in the school uniform, but in tight jeans that ended just below the knee, and a little t-shirt rolled up at the sleeves. Draco and Harry stared; suddenly full of energy and wanting to know more about this mysterious girl they had never seen before. Her long brown hair flashed with gold in the sunlight, wisping around her face in the gentle wind. They continued to watch her until the tree traveled out of sight…
"Mr. MALFOY! Mr. POTTER! Stay with us please!"
Now staring back at the board they reminisced about what just happened. It was puzzling; what were Dumbledore, the Head Girl, and a girl they had never seen doing walking around the school grounds? It wasn't like Dumbledore at all. Thinking for a minute, both came to the conclusion that it only made sense that they were giving her some sort of tour. Meaning what? Harry wanted to understand what the three were doing and then find out more about this girl. Draco couldn't really care why she was here. He just wanted to meet her. At this his famous smirk came across his face. Finally, the bell rang. Yes! It was Friday night! And tomorrow was a Hogsmeade trip. Sweet Draco thought to himself, a perfect opportunity to meet this girl and smirked to himself.
And the classroom emptied for dinner…
