ChapterThree.

"She's in here guys." Said a voice from the corridor. The door slid open and Harry, Ron and Hermione all entered.

"Ally, where were you?" Hermione flung her arms around Ally's neck.

"In here. I said good bye to Fred then found the nearest compartment. I've been waiting for you lot for ages."

"We're sorry." Ron said. Ally looked at him and smiled.

"It's ok." She said, pushing the kiss to the back of her mind. She would dwell on that later.

"Hey Ally, did I see Malfoy leaving your compartment?" Harry's question caught Ally off guard.

"Oh.. Erm.. Yeah. He came into the wrong compartment, that was all." She said quickly.

"He left in quite a hurry." Harry said raising one of his eyebrows. Ally bit her lower lip anxiously.

"Yeah, I told him I would hex him if he didn't leave." She lied. Harry leaned forwards and stared her in the eyes.

"We saw him in Borgin and Burkes. I reckon he's a death eater." He whispered. Ally gasped.

"No. Don't be silly. Malfoy, a death eater. He's far too cowardly." She said. Hermione turned to her.

"That's exactly what I told Harry. But he seems to have it in his head that Draco Malfoy is a death eater." Ally snorted.

"Like he would damage his precious appearance with the Dark Mark. He loves himself far too much." Ally and Hermione laughed. Harry narrowed his eyes at them both. He stood up abruptly and grabbed his invisibility cloak.

"I need some air." He said shortly before storming out. Ally and Hermione exchanged a knowing look.

"Right then.."Ally said.

The rest of the journey flew by. Harry didn't return from 'getting some air'. Ally had a sneaky suspicion he was doing something with Draco, but never brought it up. She wanted to get her mind off the Malfoy anyway. The train came to a halt. The three picked up their luggage and stepped into the corridor.

"I wonder where Harry is." Hermione whispered. Ron looked at her.

"He's probably already inside. Come on." He said. Ally and Hermione exchanged a worried look, but followed him out none the less. They climbed into the carriage, accompanied by Neville. There was some conversation, but Ally couldn't concentrate properly. She could still feel her lips tingling. They reached the castle and found out they had to have their luggage checked.

"It's like being at an airport." Hermione giggled to Ally. Ron looked at them.

"What's an airport?" He asked. Ally and Hermione both laughed at his bewildered expression.

"You can go." Filtch was done checking everyone's luggage. The three walked into the Great Hall and took a seat next to Ginny Weasley.

"Hey. Malfoy's not here either." Hermione whispered. Ally looked up. Sure enough, Malfoy was not at his usual place between Crabbe and Goyle. In fact, they looked lost without their beloved leader.

Ally didn't pay attention throughout the sorting. Ron and Hermione were too busy bickering to make any conversation with her. Besides, she was too busy thinking about what Draco had said. He had complimented her. He had told her she could do better. And he had kissed her. What did this mean? Did she like him? She hadn't really thought about it before. It wasn't as if he wasn't good looking, but his personality sucked. And he didn't have a sense of humour like Fred. 'But how do I know he doesn't?' Ally thought to herself. 'It's not like I've really spoken to him before. And he seemed totally different on the train." Just as she thought this, Draco Malfoy sauntered in, and took his place at the Slytherin table. Ally looked up, meeting his gaze. He smiled briefly before dropping his eyes to his plate. Ally sighed.

"There's Harry." Hermione pointed to the doors. Sure enough, Harry was walking sheepishly down the aisle, causing heads to turn in his direction. Ally grimaced.

"Urgh, he's covered in blood. Why is he always covered in blood?"

"Looks like this time it's his own." Ginny whispered. Harry sat down across the table from her.

"Where have you been?" Hermione hissed across the table. Ally leaned across Ginny.

"This wouldn't so happen to have anything to do with a one Mr. Malfoy would it?" She asked. Harry looked down at the table.

"Might do." He mumbled. Hermione sighed and Ally shook her head.

"See, I told you 'e was alright." Ron said with a mouth full of food. Hermione shot him a death glare. Ally and Ginny looked at each other before giggling. It was so obvious that Hermione and Ron wanted to be together. They just needed to give into their feelings. Harry yawned. Ally looked at him.

"Tired?" She asked. Harry nodded.

"Me too. I was thinking of going up the common room now. Coming Harry?" Harry nodded again, obviously too busy thinking about Malfoy to come up with a response.

"Ron? Hermione? Ginny?" Ron looked at his food pointedly, his mouth too full to speak. Hermione looked up at Ally.

"I'll yanno, keep him company.." She said, her cheeks turning a slight pink. Ally nodded.

"I'll go." Ginny said, looking at Harry who was smiling at her. They made their way up to the Common Room. Harry and Ginny were looking at each other and it began to make Ally feel uncomfortable.

"I'll just be going then.." She said, and excused herself up to her room. She sighed and sat on her bed. The room was empty for the moment, and Ally made the most of the silence. She lay back on the bed and lost herself in her thoughts.

Does Fred really care about me as much as he makes out? He must do. I mean, we wouldn't have been together this long if not.. But Malfoy.. He seemed to know. And why was he so nice to me? It's not right. In that room, it was like a side of him I've never seen before.. Was that the real Draco Malfoy? Why did he care about me anyway? I'm just a damn Mudblood to him. But he kissed me...

The door flung open and Hermione strode into the room.

"What's up Mione?" Ally asked. Hermione sat on the bed next to her and looked over at Ally.

"Ron." She said. Ally sat up and gave her a sympathetic look.

"What's he done now?" She asked. Hermione looked at her.

"Do you think he will ever realise?" She whispered. Ally gave a small sad sigh. She got up and sat next to Hermione.

"Of course he will. You two are perfect for each other. He just.. Doesn't think he's good enough for you." Hermione put her head on Ally's shoulder and sniffed. "Don't worry Mione. Everything will turn out fine. Just you wait." She said, wrapping her arms around her friend.
