Icould tell he had stiffened at my last comment, even though I couldn't see him.


I take a deep breath and try my best at a pureblood demeanour.

I reach a hand out to him.
"Ahem." I clear my throat, bringing about an air of elegance as well as his attention. "You'll soon find out some wizarding families are much better than others, Malfoy."
He turns to me with a look of pure confusion.
"You don't want to go making friends with the wrong sort.
I can help you there." I reach my hand out a bit further, and as I say those last words something seems to click together for him.
He smirks at me before turning his head, nose up.
"I think I can tell who the wrong sort are for myself, thanks." He says coolly, before turning back to me and grinning.
I grin back and we both start laughing, almost hysterically.


Draco and I spent the few hours left that morning talking and learning about each other.
"So what's your favourite colour?" I ask him.
He looked up at me and laughed.
"What, that was my actual question." I whine, pouting and crossing my arms.
"Sorry." He says between bursts of laughter. "But if you hadn't already guessed, it'sgreen."
"I was just making sure, it could have just been Slytherin pride." I mumble. "Your turn."
"Hm." He hummed in thought, furrowing his eyebrows as he looked at me.
"Are you okay being a girl?" He asked, then quickly added. "I mean, this could be permanent."
"Well, I don't mind it all that much, mainly for two reasons."
I said with a small smile. "One, I'm closer to my main desire, and two, I have a rockin' body."
"Can't argue with that." He told me with a small smirk.
"My turn!" I chirp as a warm blush covers my cheeks. "What's your patronus?"
"Promise you won't laugh?" He asks, a small blush creeping up his neck from embarrassment.
"Promise." I nod.
"It's a ferret." He whispers.
"That's actually pretty cute." I mumble, watching as his blush grew darker.
"How are you going to deal with all this?" He asked me seriously, after taking a moment to clear his throat.
"Honestly?" I mumble as he just nods softly. "I don't really know."
