Ice: Well we already have most of this written out, so we'll updated weekly.

Fire: Rather than the bi-sixmonthly that we seem to be pacing ourselves at.

Randa: We also hope to pick up the pace on those once we're done with all the weird one-shots we have flowting about.

Wonton: Read on!


My little girl met a new friend
Just the other day
On the play ground at the school
Between the tires and the swing
But she came home with tear filled eyes
And she said to me 'Daddy, Alyssa lies'

First Year

Draco stood in Madam Malkin's robe shop, waiting to get his first year robes. He was rather irritated with his mother for wanting him to go to Hogwarts, when he should be going off to Durmstrange. He and his father had wanted him to go there but his mother whined about it being to far away. His mother was always whining about something or other and it really gave the young boy headaches, his father was rather annoying as well with all of his pure blood nonsense. If there really was a threat in having muggle borns coming into the magic world then they'd already be dead and no muggle born would ever be born. Draco shook his head.

Just then the door chimed, signaling that someone had come in. Draco turned his head to look at the new comer. The boy was small and scruffy looking, his head was bent in a submissive way, his posture was just screaming that he was scared and nervous, and he was alone. His over large shirt and pants made him look even smaller than he was, not to mention he had flyaway hair that could be seen any where. Draco thought he looked rather cute though and was about to say hi when he saw bruises on his arm and gaped at them.

The little boy looked up to see the blond staring at him and shifted. He saw what the other boy was looking at and said, "I'm rather clumsy and tend to fall and hurt myself a lot." He was so quiet that Draco almost didn't hear him.

"Oh... Well I'm a bit clumsy too so it's nothing to worry about. Mother says that I don't pay attention, but I think that these thing seem to pop out of no where, you know?" Draco said happily to the small raven haired boy. Madam Malkin started her work on the boy. "So what's your name and how old are you?"

"Well... My name is Harry, and I'm 11." The newly proclaimed Harry answered, though it was a rather shy reply. He neglected to mention that it was his birthday, this day.

"Really?! So am I, but I really expected you to be a bit younger than what you say. You look so small. My name is Draco Malfoy, by the way." Draco truly was surprised to say the least, his new friend was so small but the same age as him how great! That meant that they might go to school together, unless he was going somewhere else, or was home schooled, or was a squib. It would really suck if he was any of those things. "Where are you going to school at?" he asked tentatively.

"Hogwarts. Why are there other places to be schooled?" He asked with his quiet voice, and looking up to show wide green eyes.

"There are loads of places that you can be schooled at... I only know of two right now, but I'm sure we can look it up in the schools library once we get there!" Draco was very happy to have someone he could talk to. He had to make sure his headache causing parents weren't around though, because if they caught him being so civil to this scruffy boy they'd be horrified. "But at the school I'm going to, Hogwarts, they have four houses: Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Gryffindor. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be in Slytherin, cause I'm cunning and stuff. I think I'd die if I was in Hufflepuff, but I won't care what house your in. Even if your in Hufflepuff of Gryffindor. Okay!" Draco smiled at the other, and he nodded, not quite sure what was going on and was rather over whelmed.

Another tinkling came from behind and Draco put up his mask, as he turned to see, but did not see his parents. One Severus Snape had been sent to retrieve one Harry Potter the previous night and was not in a good mood, seeing as he wasn't supposed to go on this mission, Hagrid was, but the oaf had gotten sick. So he was assigned to go. Draco saw the brooding man and lit up.

"Uncle Severus! Meet my new friend Harry. He's very shy, but he's great." The blond said with a big smile. Severus saw the young blond and gave a slight affectionate smirk. " I don't care what house Harry is in I want to be his friend forever!" Draco said excitedly. Harry over on the other stool blushed and bent his head down.

For the life of Severus he couldn't seem to stop comparing the boy to his father, even though they were nothing a like. Severus' heard ached at his misconceptions of the boy, but he wouldn't let it show.

"That's great Draco but I really must be taking Harry on for more of his school shopping. Just remember what you just promised." Severus told the blond. Draco then watched as Severus went and payed for Harry's robes and they walked out of the door. Draco sighed knowing he'd have to wait for two weeks before he'd get to see his new friend again. Draco watched them leave and sighed once again when the bell tinkled signaling that the two had left. Draco now felt sltightly lonely but shook it off knowing he'd see his friend soon enough.

Two weeks later found Draco arriving at Kings Cross about and hour and a half early at 9:30 in the morning of September first. He had driven his parents nuts the previous night about appearances and how it wouldn't look good to get there at the same time as the rest of the common folk. Of course it was a ploy to get what he wanted without saying what he truly wanted. Draco was rightfully a master at playing his parents, even at the tender age of eleven, and was damn proud of it.

Draco didn't expect anyone to be there when he got there, he just wanted to be there when Harry got there so he could help the small boy with his things. The only problem he had with his plan was that his parents were there and he had to find a way to get them to leave, and he knew the perfect way.

Hiding his smirk, Draco turned to his parents as they came through the barrier. "Mother, Father, I'll be fine for the time until the train leaves. I know you have many things to be doing today, so why don't you go and finish them?" He asked innocently.

"Draco this is a big day for you and with so many people coming later they will think we do not care for you. It would ruin our image to leave you here un-chaperoned. We will be staying." his mother stated. God damn the stupid woman for trying to play the part of a real mother, when all of them knew she didn't give a shit that she wouldn't see her son until, at least, December.

"Really mother they would all think you baby me and we can't have that. I would be called a 'mummy's boy' all year and that is nothing to stand for. I am old enough please be on your busy way." Draco still played them urging them to go back through that portal behind them.

"He's right dear. We have many things to be doing and staying here would be like babying him. Let's go." Lucius commanded, turned, and walked right back out the portal. Narcissa looked once more at her son and left behind her son.

Draco smirked a victory smirk. He turned toward the train that was waiting and pulled his luggage cart behind him. He walked along the train and made his was toward the back. As he walked he looked into all the windows and as he passed one he saw a face in one of the last compartments. Draco jumped, startled, but go over that once he saw exactly who he was looking at, Harry.

It took a moment to gather everything in his head, and he wondered why Harry was here so early, and where his parents were. He waved to the boy in the window and the other gave a shy smile, before getting up and walking out of the blond's view. Draco was worried for a second that Harry didn't like him or was mad at him, that was until Harry poked his head out of the entryway to the train and gave him a bigger smile. Draco gave the brunet a big smile and walked toward him. He let go of his cart and gave Harry a hug. Harry tensed for a second before forcing himself to relax, so his blond friend wouldn't be suspicious. Draco noticed but let it go, for Harry being shy.

"Would you like me to help you with your trunk?" Harry whispered.

"No, I'll be fine. I truthfully came so I could help you with your trunk, because your so small, I figured you'd need some help." Draco said excitedly. Harry blushed a bit and ducked his head.

"Um... About that, I was wondering if you'd... Help me get my trunk up on the rack." The last part was spoken so quietly that Draco didn't catch it.

"Could you repeat the last part, please." Draco asked. Harry's eyes widened thinking he had been wrong to ask for his friends help.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean to so much of a burden." He said quickly. Head still lowered. This time it was Draco's eyes that got bigger.

"No, I didn't mean it like that. You said the last part so quietly that I didn't quite catch it. Could you please repeat what you said?" Draco soothed his smaller friend.

"Oh, I asked if you would he..hel...p me g...get my tr...trunk on...on the rack" The smaller stuttered, and Draco smiled.

"Of course! I said I wanted to help you." Draco said with a wide grin. Harry looked you surprised, and smiled, leading the way to his compartment. Draco Dragged his trunk behind him and then left it in the corridor as he went in the compartment to help Harry with his trunk.

Once they were done with that, Draco looked around the compartment and saw a beautiful snowy owl. "Wow, it's gorgeous." Draco's awe was evident on his face.

"I named her Hedwig. I found the name in A History of Magic I didn't really have anything better to do, so I read all my books." Harry told his friend. "I'm thinking of ordering next years set early so I can read them over the next summer."

Draco smiled at him. "It seems we have a Ravenclaw on our hands. You going to be a bit of a nerd aren't you?" He asked teasingly. "By the way I never got your full name, do you mind sharing?" Harry was a bit surprised that he was the only one not to notice yet, but remembered that he had kept his scar decisively hidden since his first Leaky Caldron experience.

"Harry Potter," came the short reply, and Draco nodded.

"I don't think my father will like that to much." Draco said rather subdued. Draco got a thought at that moment on how he could keep his friend and still appease his father. The blond suddenly gained an evil smirk. "What do you think about helping me with the scam of the decade?" Harry was curious and intrigued. What exactly was Draco up to?

Draco explained his plo...plan to the smaller boy and then they set off on accomplishing it. About an hour and fifteen minutes later found Harry pretending to be going to the platform for the first time, but with Draco's trunk. Harry got 'help' from a red headed family, who he found out later were the Weasleys, and was a little unnerved by the youngest two in the family. It seemed Ron, the second youngest, only wanted to be his friend because of who he was in famous stature. Draco thought it would be a good idea to leave his scar exposed even though he had said he doesn't like attention. So Harry, for Draco's sake resigned himself to his fate, and took in the attention Ron was giving him.

The train ride was eventful, and everything went according to Draco's plo... plan. Draco was quite happy with himself but couldn't help but feel a bit jealous toward the red head for actually getting to spend as much time as he wanted to spend with Harry. Draco also felt that the Weasley didn't deserve to be Harry's friend, because he only seemed to be out for Harry's fame. Draco knew the deed was done, so he resigned himself to the fate he wrote.

The young first years made their way into the Great Hall, following the lead of the tight-lipped professor. Draco didn't pay much attention to what was going on around him and just waited for his name to be called. After about five minutes his name was called and he was placed directly into Slytherin just as he suspected. Once he was seated at his table he waited for his small friend to be called up. When Harry was called Draco got the feeling that wherever his friend was place it wouldn't be where he was supposed to go. After all the younger probably didn't want to be alone. Harry had been placed in Gryffindor, and Draco knew that Harry had tricked the hat, especially with how shy and meek the younger was.

Draco watched as the months passed and he watched as his friend flinched at every touch, even at his when they were alone. Harry was fooling every one with his tough guy act and every one was falling in love with him. Draco saw that Harry wasn't comfortable in large crowds and he didn't like attention. He saw how his uncle treated he young friend, and how unfair he was toward the boy. The blond didn't like the way no one could see through his act, not even Severus did, and he had seen how meek the little one was. He didn't like Harry acting the way he did, because he could see that eventually it would kill the younger.

One night he told Harry so, and the boy had dropped the act so quick, it was like seeing a whole different person pop up out of the blue.

"I'm sorry Draco. I don't mean to put it up in front of you. Sometimes it's hard to take it down because I feel like I'm going to fall apart if I do." Draco hugged the boy and felt him tense. Harry had lied to him when they had first met, Draco could feel in the tense body in his arms.

"You can tell me anything." Draco told him.

As the rest of the year went by Draco could feel Harry open up to him and feel his uncle watching him. Draco knew that his uncle was wondering what was the matter with him, but he wouldn't just go up and say something to him. Months went by and Severus just watched Draco, until he just couldn't stand not knowing what was going on in his godsons head. And the only answer Draco gave him was; "Harry lies."
