Chapter Two

The meeting & brotherhood

Harry was walking down an empty corridor, thinking about who could have put my name in? And how angry he was at Dumbledore? He knew Dumbledore could have done something to help. But because Dumbledore didn't, and in his mind Dumbledore wasn't worth anything. Harry lost a lot of respect for the supposed savior of the wizarding world. He was having second thoughts about everything now. He couldn't trust anyone if they didn't believe him about the tournament. He wouldn't trust anyone unless they believed in him. He was going to change how things were and how he did things from now on. He was going to be his own man and take control of his life now.

All of a sudden Harry heard someone laugh, He looked around and saw the door ajar, and he walked closer and looked through the crack in the door and saw his friends. He wondered why they were in an empty classroom. He was just about to push open the door when someone grabbed his arm. He turned around having drawn his wand but stopped short seeing Neville was the one that had grabbed him.

"Neville, What are you doing here?" Harry whispered, looking at the door making sure they hadn't stopped talking.

"I was passing by when I heard them say your name and I just started listening, but Harry what they're saying you should hear from me later." Neville whispered back, looking angry.

Harry just nodded, wondering what his friends would say about him that got Neville so upset. They leaned in and started to listen.

"Dumbledore was right; He got Harry into the tournament now everyone will hate him for taking the spot light off of Cedric. He will feel even more alone and come running back to us when he sees we are the only ones that truly care for him." Hermione said, in a smug tone and laughing.

"Yeah then it will be easier for Dumbledore to control the idiot." Ron said, chuckling.

Harry turn his head and look at Neville and shake his head.

"Does what you heard get even worse?" Harry ask, not wanting to show the hurt on his face.

"Yes Harry a lot worse. I'm sorry mate." Neville says, shaking his head and frowning.

Harry continued to listen to everything those three are saying, everything from Harry almost dying in the second task to them planning to get him to give in and forgive them all. He was just shaking his head and getting angrier. The last straw was when they said something about him marrying Ginny.

"Can you believe that Dumbledore got the contract approved? I'll be the next Lady Potter soon. This will be so incredible all that money will be mine." Ginny said, sounding excited.

Harry was so mad that he almost walked into the classroom and told them off but Neville grabbed my arm and pulled him away in the direction of the Astronomy tower. Once they got there he turned to Neville.

"Why?"

Harry just couldn't wrap his mind around everything that had happened tonight. His friends were traitors. He couldn't ever trust them; He actually didn't know who to trust anymore. He just wanted someone to tell him the truth and not to lie to him anymore. Harry sat there watching Neville pace back and forth. He didn't know what Neville was going to tell him, or if it would just hurt him even more. He didn't know if he could take much more. He just wanted to get it over with and figure things out.

"Neville just say it." Harry said, turning to look at the sky.

"Harry, if I told you that you should have lived with my grandmother and me, if Sirius Black couldn't, would you hate me?" Neville said, looking down and shaking his head.

"What?" Harry said, thinking he didn't hear Neville right.

"I know I know Harry" Neville said walking to the edge of the astronomy tower and looking down.

"Why though?" Harry asked, turning to look at Neville.

"My grandmother was your father's godmother; he put her on the list next in line to get custody of you if something happened to them or Sirius." Neville explains.

"We could have grown up as brothers then. Who would keep me from a home like that?" Harry asked already knowing the answer.

Neville and Harry looked at each other and both said "Dumbledore." And they both shook their heads.

"What am I going to do Neville?" Harry asked.

"You mean what are WE going to do. It's time we be brothers and figure this out together, Harry." Neville said turning to him.

Harry looked up at Neville surprised, by the tone he was using, Harry could tell he was determined and he wouldn't give up on it. Harry had always wanted a sibling and now he could have one. Could he trust him though, everyone around him was lying to him? One thing with Neville though, He might not have let him closer before but he was always there when Ron was mad at him for doing something. No matter what Neville had been there even in the background. He was a true friend and one that Harry could trust.

"Okay Neville what are we going to do?" Harry asked, smiling for the first time in hours.

"First you need to read this note. And Harry read all of it before you judge?" Neville told Harry, handing him a note.

Potter,

Please read this and hear me out.

I know I've been somewhat of a bully but I've changed I wanted to say I'm sorry for everything I've said or done. I don't want to turn out like my father. I know you might not believe me I've learn our families go back they used to be friends the best of friends and the Malfoy's were neutral. So was your family they weren't always light.

But that's not why I wanted to send this. You need to know my mother is your godmother, she can't get away from my father yet but when she does she wants to help you and so do I. Your parents wanted you to grow up like the pureblood you are. I know you think your mother was muggleborn she wasn't! I want to help also. Please Harry I want to help. I don't care if the whole school knows you would have been my brother, we could have grown up together if Dumbledore didn't have your parents will sealed. Another thing don't trust Dumbledore or the weasels or the know-it-all.

I want to help and let Neville I might have bullied him but he always stood up for his friends. He will help and so will I.

I know you probably think I'm crazy or trying to trick you but ask Padfoot, he knows.

Your friend

Draco

Harry didn't know what to say or do at the moment. He didn't know if he should believe Draco. This note seemed real, like it was speaking the truth but maybe he should wait until he can confirm from Sirius that it's all true or not. I didn't want to make the wrong move just yet. He would wait.

"Neville did you read this?" Harry asked looking at Neville.

"Yes but Draco said I should. Do you think it's true?" Neville asked me back.

"I don't know yet Nev, but I will find out once I send a message to Sirius." Harry said, looking at the note in his hands.

"Bet Sirius can help." said Neville. Harry's head snapped up.

"Shit Nev you're not supposed to know I can talk to Sirius he's supposed to be on the run." Harry said, nervous.

"I've known that he was innocent. My grandmother never believed he could do something like that." Neville said, shaking his head smiling.

"Oh" was the only thing he could say.

"We should go to bed Nev; we can get together in the morning and decide what we wanna do." Harry said, yawning.

"Okay yeah then we will have a fresh start in the morning…"

**please review I do read them!**

Hope you liked it :)
