Chapter 4: An Unexpceted Friendship

Harry awoke to a loud smash the next morning, he looked towards the door and there was Draco Malfoy. He didnt notice Ginny, he was preoccupied with Sirius, who was trying to get rid of him. Harry threw the covers over Ginny, and asked what was going on, slipped his clothes on under the covers. "Sirius let him say what he came here to say," Harry said "Ok," Sirius replied. Draco walked over to Harry and extended his hand, Harry was shocked but shook Draco's hand. "Harry I want to say that... that... I am... sorry. For everything," Harry was dumbfounded, "Me too Draco." Harry couldnt refrain to ask this next question "Draco, why the sudden change of mind?" "I found out last night that I am not a pure blood. My Mother told me she was only half blood. She also told me that I am the Half Blood Prince." Harry took a moment to gather his thoughts and asked "Yeah but why are you here?" Draco told Harry about the prophecy that was newly written. Harry stood in awe for a moment then said "Draco this is my Godfather Sirius Black, you probably already know that though."

"I was about to ask you why he was here," Draco said.

"He didnt kill those people, he is innocent." Draco turned towards Sirius.

"I dont bite!" Sirius said, they laughed.

Harry assured that Sirius wouldnt hurt a fly, and for the moment he thought Draco was convinced. He still didnt understand why Draco was there.

Ron and Hermione sat outside in the garden talking to each other silently, when Aurthor Weasley walked outside and asked them. "Have you seen Ginny?" he asked. "No," they both replied. At that moment a group of people arrived in the garden: Harry, Draco, Ginny, Sirius, walked over to them. "Ginny there you are!" Author said. Author went to tell Molly Weasley that he had found Ginny.

"Harry what are you doing with that git?" said Ron.

"Like you care Ron," Harry replied.

"Ohhhh Harry's big stuff now that he has a mate that has an ego as big as his own," Ron said through gritted teeth.

"Did I miss something?" Draco said.

"You missed a lot," Harry replied, Harry informed Draco of the fights they had gotten into.

"Harry, really why is he with you?" Hermione asked.

"You like to know wouldnt you?" Draco snapped.

Ron stood up, "Dont talk to her like that Draco!"

"What are you going to do Weaslbe?" Draco smirked.

Sirius stepped in between them, "Boys calm down, you need to work out your differences!"

"Move it murderer!" Ron said trying to keep his voice down.

Harry wipped out his wand and yelled "STUPIFY!"

Ron fell to the ground, and Hermione ran over to him, "Ron are you ok?" He nodded slightly. Mrs Weasley walked outside and screamed seeing Ron lying on the ground and Harry with his wand pointed at him.

"HARRY POTTER! WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?" Molly yelled. "I'm sorry Mrs Weasley, Ron needs to watch what he says about Sirius."

Author pulled Harry to the side and asked "What is he doing here?" Harry replied "He found out last night that he is the Half Blood Prince, and there is a new prophecy." Harry told Mr Weasley about the new prophecy, and Aurthor said he would talk to Ron and Hermione about it.

Harry kissed Ginny deeply and said he would miss her, and that he would see her at Kings Cross the next week. With that they were gone.

OOO

Harry and Draco had a very awkward final week of summer, it was weird trying to be friends with your x-arch nemisis. They would fly on there brooms for most of the day, that was something they never knew they had in common. Harry often wondered what people would say to him when they saw them hanging out. He finally decided that he never had cared what people thought about.

OOO

Ron and Hermione sat at the Burrow wondering why Draco was with Harry. Ginny knew, but she went straight to her room. At that moment Author Weasley walked through the door and sat down to talk to them.

"I know you are wondering why Draco was with Harry" Author said

"Yeah we are! Do you know why?" Ron said

"Yes I do and I will tell you because Harry told me too." Author stated.

He told them about the prophecy and that Draco was the Half Blood Prince.

"You know Ron, Hermione, you should apologize to Harry." Author said.

"Why?" Ron and Hermione said in unison.

"For one, he didnt know you two where dating. You also said (quote) You wont do anything, why dont you quit ruining everyone elses lives and go home. Oh wait you dont have a home, or a family!(unquote) So you need to apologize!" Aurthor said.

"Dad!" Ron whined

"NO RON! YOU WILL APOLOGIZE!" Aurthor roared.

The rest of the week flew by for Ron and Hermione, before they knew it, it was August the 31st. They packed that night because in the morning they would be leaving very quick. As most of the time the Ministry would lend them a car to take them to Kings Cross. The next morning they got up and ate a little breakfast. They sent letters to Diagon Alley, to order there schoolbooks and supplies. The car would pick them up there at Diagon Alley. They flooed to Diagon Alley, they were going to pick there things up at the Leakey Cauldron. They then left for Kings Cross.

OOO

Harry and Draco were staying at the Leakey Cauldron, and they were going to take a cab to Kings Cross. They got the cab and made there way to Kings Cross.
