Hogwarts Express (POV: Draco Malfoy)
Draco entered Platform Nine and Three Quarters with his lugguage. His tawny owl, Nimph, screached irratably. He had made Head Boy this year was wondering who had been selected as Head Girl. He made his way to the train alone, since his father was in hiding and his mother had come down with a cold. As he was about to enter the train he stepped aside to let a raven-haired girl with beautiful emerald eyes pass him so she could get off.
Draco watched as the girl slowed to look around. He had never seen her before, yet she looked about his age. Strange, maybe she's a year below me? Just then he saw Remus Lupin walk right up to the raven-haired girl and give her a hug. When they began having a conversation, Draco stepped closer to hear what they were saying. "Don't worry Lily you'll be fine, Albus'll take care of you. Besides you haven't even met very many of the students in your year yet," Remus said.
"I know, it's just, I'm being transfered to Hogwarts, and it's obvious I don't belong here," Lily replied.
"Nonsense! Besides I'm sure you'll find your way in just the frist few days. Now go on and get on the train before they leave you!" laughed Remus lightly.
"Hey she can't leave without saying good bye to us!" hollared a large man with long red haired pulled into a ponytail.
"Charlie! Bill! I didn't think you two were coming!" exclaimed Lily as she gave them both red haired men a hug.
"Of course we'd be here, we don't get to see you again until the holidays!" laughed the other red haired man.
"Tonks!" Lily gave a bubble-gum-pink-haired woman a hug.
"Didn't think you could leave without saying good bye did you?" laughed the older witch.
"Okay, Lily really needs to get on the train or she won't be able to find a seat!" exclaimed Remus hugging Lily one last time before lightly directing her towards the train. Lily said goodbye before running towards the train.
Draco immediatly got onto the train hoping no one had noticed him eavesdropping. He entered the first empty compartment he came to. It already had luggage in it, but there was nobody in site. Not really caring he put his luggage up on the rack. At that moment the compartment door opened. He turned to see the beautiful raven-haired girl from before standing there. "Um, sorry I didn't know anybody was in here," she said starting to leave.
"Oh, it's okay. It's just me. You can stay here if you'd like," Draco said hoping she would stay.
She turned around and smiled at him, "Okay, I think I will." She sat down on the seat across from him, "my name's Lily Jones, what's yours?" she asked curiously.
"Draco, Draco Malfoy. I haven't seen you before what year are you in?" Draco questioned, better play it safe and act like I don't know anything.
"Oh, I'm a transfer student; I'm in the seventh year," responded Lily.
"Well you're in my year, any idea what house you'll be in, or if they're using the sorting hat on you?"
"No, my godfather told me he'd tell me what house I belonged in when I got there, I don't think he's planning on using the sorting hat."
"That's not exactly fair, because then you won't know what house you belong in," replied Draco as the door slid open a second time.
"Lily! We've been looking everywhere for you," exclaimed Harry as he entered the compartment. He looked around and spotted Draco, "What are you doing here?"
"Actually this is my compartment, which you rudely entered without knocking, so I think the question should honestly be reversed Potter," Draco sneered.
Lily looked around confused. "Um? Is anybody going to clue me in on what's going on? Because this is kind of wierd."
"Come on Lily we're getting out of here. You can come and sit with Ron, Hermione, and me," replied Harry grabbing Lily's arm and dragging her out of the compartment.
Lily stopped at the door pulling back lightly, "Harry! Why do I have to move? And what is with you? You've never acted like this before!"
"Look Lily, you know I'm in Gryffindor, and that Gryffindors don't like Slytherins, well... Draco's a Slytherin and his Dad's a Death Eater. Now come on before Hermione and Ron come looking."
"Fine," Lily conceded, but she turned around and mouthed 'see you around' to Draco.
Draco sat in shock. She deffinately doesn't belong in Gryffindor! She has a great figure too. Damn, Draco don't think such things you already have a girl friend! But she was pretty good looking. I think I'll set up a small rendevous for tonight. Crap first I have to meet the damn Head Girl, if it's Granger I think I'll puke. Having to share a common room AND a bathroom would be horrible. So would having the stupid Golden Trio in my common room every day to copy homework and annoy me.
