Within the confusion that was Chapter two, I bring you Chapter three!

Which just happens to be even more confusing, lol!

I'm pretty sure that most of you would've thought that the last chapter was indeed the last; but you're wrong, there's MUCH more to come, believe me! So please take a seat, get comfortable, and have a hot steaming cup of yaoi! It's time to get this party started!

To redfox13: "I hope you're enjoying your summer so far, lol! One of those two are right, but yes, alas, Harry did REALLY jump, can you believe it? Ahhh! Noooo! Harry! I'll save you! Wait, it's too late, aww darn! Thank you so much! I'm glad you're still here with me, reading and enjoying it all the way through, have another cup of yaoi! Enjoy!"

To yukino382: "Your name's kind of like Yukina from YYH, lol! Oh well, and look! I updated, have fun reading this chapter, I hope you don't get too confused."

To cabbagehobbit: "LOL, well, Draco is weak at the sight of blood too, you're right on both ends of the string, lol. So it's a win-win situation, here you go! Have another steaming cup of yaoi!"

To demonlover11: "I totally understand where you're comming from girl, lol! I've told my mom and dad, my dad thinks it's cool, and my mom's okay with it, she didn't kick me out like I thought, I came out like... Three years ago, so it's been really hard for me, kids at school are always asking about it. Yeah, I have a tendency to go bad with cliffhangers, lol. I tried not to space them that much, it's really hard, I have people who want juicier paragraphs, and then there's those who want thin sleek paragraphs, so I guess I'll just have to go with the slightly in between. Thank you for the compliment of Draco, I've always sort of thought of him as an interior kind of character. He just hides a bunch of shit. I tried not to tweak him too much, or it just wouldn't fit, you know? Well, I kind of already killed Harry, so I can't help you there, lol. Thank you, I'm glad you like my writing, I'll try and continue to make it as interesting as the last two chapter, have a cup of yaoi and read on!"

To Kaikiki: "LOL, I won't leave it like that, I would never torture my fans like that. Oh yes, command, command, I want people to ask for things, give me ideas, I'm so down with that. Well, here's your cherry on top, and some sprinkles, and Harry and Draco. LOL, have a cup of yaoi and enjoy!"

Three boys briskly entered the compartment, all at once Harry knew he had recognized the middle one; it was the blond haired pale boy he had seen in Madam Malkin's robe shop, only now he was looking at Harry with an utmost interest he hadn't shown in Diagon Alley.

"So, is it true?" He asked looking around the compartment until his grey eyes settled on Harry, "They're all saying that Harry Potter's in this compartment. And it's you, isn't it?"

"Yes," Harry said in aggravation, his eyes traveled to the other two first years standing at the boy's sides. Both of them were large in size, and looked scurvy. They appeared to be the other boy's bodyguards.

Draco smiled at Harry's interest, "This is Crabbe, and this is Goyle," He said carelessly, moving in a bit more to get a better look, "And my name's Malfoy, Draco Malfoy."

Ron snickered lightly and Draco turned to him at last.

"Think my name's funny do you? No need to ask your name. Red hair, freckles, and a vacant expression. You must be a Weasley." He then turned back to Harry again, "I completely understand why you didn't tell me your name, maybe you were a bit panicked. I apologize for being so rude before, I don't know where my manners were. I'm afraid to say that there's worse. You don't want to go making friends with those kind, do you? After all, I'd love to help you with that."

He held out his hand to shake Harry's and waited patiently. After a few seconds worth of thoughts and silence, his hand was taken.

"As long as you have no problem with a Weasley, I'm not dropping Ron," Harry said cooly.

Draco didn't go red, but a light pink tinge appeared on his pale cheeks and he examined Harry for a moment, "I can handle Weasley," He said slowly, "Your friendship mean SO much more to me, Potter, or can I call you... Harry?"

Harry smiled politely, "Yes, you are my friend after all, are you not?"

Draco sneered at Crabbe and Goyle, "Yes, you two can go on without me."

The blond haired boy rolled his eyes as the two looked at each other with a shrug and walked off, after they had left Draco moved to sit across from Harry, "So, Potter, I must ask you now, I think I've assumed correctly, you know NOTHING of the Wizarding World, do you?"

Harry solemnly shook his head, "I grew up with muggles."

Draco looked disgusted for a moment, "You're a pure blood though, right?"

"I-I don't know, I... Think so."

Draco nodded to Harry's words, "That's alright. I can clue you in on things, if-"

"What has been going on?" Hermione said as she entered the compartment, looking at the sweets all over the floor, then to Draco; sitting across from Harry. She then cocked a brow, "Malfoy?"

Draco smirked and nodded boldly.

"So you two've met before?"

"You could say that." Harry nodded in answer to the curly-haired girls question, he then explained about his and Draco's meeting in Diagon Alley.

"So you're Lucius Malfoy's son?"

"Yes," Replied Draco with delicacy, "I know, don't worry, I don't plan on following in his footsteps."

Ron let out a held breath, "Good," He said darkly, "Wasn't your father one of the first to come back to our side after you-know-who disappeared?"

Draco nodded silently as Ron turned to Hermione.

"Can we help you with something?"

"You'd better hurry up and put on your robes, I've just been up to see the conductor, and he say's we're nearly there."

Draco rolled his eyes, "Of course, now would you mind if we changed on our own? Unless you want to help us."

"Fine then, I'll leave," Said Hermione sniffly, "And Ronald, you've got dirt on your nose, by the way, did you know? Just there."

Ron glared at her as she left.


"Malfoy, Draco!"

Draco moved forward after a friendly shove from Harry, the hat barely touched his head when it screamed out, "SLYTHERIN!"

Six names were called out before Harry finally heard his-

"Potter, Harry!"

"Difficult. Very difficult. Plenty of courage, I see. Not a bad mind either. There's talent, oh my goodness, yes-and a thirst, to prove yourself, now that's interesting... Alright, SLYTHERIN!"

Harry heard the hat shout out the last word to the entire hall. He took it off and walked unevenly toward the Slytherin table, now feeling a bit light-headed. Draco smiled widely and stood to clap, among some others, he had Harry sit down beside him; placing a friendly hand on the new Slytherin's shoulder.

"Congratulations Potter," He whispered into Harry's ear, "I'm glad you're in here with me, I was hoping not to be stuck alone."


"This is the Slytherin Common Room," The fifth year prefect, Tristen Fields, stood before all of the first year Slytherins as he explained things to them, all of the new students looked around in amazement.

The Common Room was slightly dreary, yet it felt comfortable, the walls were made of rough stone as well as the ceiling. There were round-shaped greenish lamps hanging on chains from the roof, which was low-set. There were chairs around, all green in color and a crackling fire under an elaborately carved mantelpiece.

"The boy's dormitories are to your left, girls to your right, the password will most likely stay 'Aphrodite' for the rest of the year, it only changes when there's...Problems. I'm Tristen Fields, fifth year prefect." The boy turned and walked off to his right.

Draco and Harry looked at each other and walked on after him.


"Well, do you see them?" Harry asked in excitement.

"N-No, hold on," Draco paled as he stared into the mirror, "I-I see something else."

Harry frowned and laid the invisibility cloak on the floor as he walked over to stand next to Draco, "Huh? Well, what do you see?"

Draco shook his head quickly, backing out of the way, "N-Nothing, it's... N-Nothing."

"But I saw my parents."

Draco turned to Harry with rolling eyes and chuckled, "I think you've found the mirror of Erised, Harry."

"Erised?" Harry asked in confusion.

"Yes, It shows your most deepest desires." Draco smiled at the other Slytherin, "I read about it in Hogwarts: a History."

"But, what did you see?"

Draco rolled his eyes again and snorted.

Harry frowned and lowered his eyebrows, "You won't tell me?"

"No," Draco looked back at the mirror one more time, "I would, but... Not now."

"Fine." Harry picked up the invisibility cloak and threw it over the both of them, "We better get going before Filch comes around."
