He told us a few stories about the past. I slowly drifted asleep in the arms of my big protective brother.
Chapter 10
The next morning was pure chaos. Everyone was running around the house getting packed. We were already late by the time we reached the station. We said very quick good-byes and then hopped aboard the Hogwarts Express. Once we found a compartment Harry pulled out Exploding Snap. Ron and I decided to have a Wizard Chess competition. I had already lost four games and won only won. We were joined by two new people. Neville Longbottom was a little over six feet and slightly chunky. Luna Lovegood was the other person who joined our compartment. Her white blonde hair hung mid back and she had radish earrings. They were both very polite and I liked them a lot. Neville told us that he went by Nev and not Neville. The compartment door slid open once again. I was concentrating on my next move and didn't look up.
"Malfoy," I heard Harry growl. I snapped my head up and watched the exchange. I had never seen Harry mad but I had heard about his temper. I had also endured my friends ranting on about Draco Malfoy. They had told me all about the little punk. I studied him as he stood there gloating. He was almost the same height as Harry maybe a few centimeters shorter. His white blonde hair was slicked back and gelled into place. He was muscular like Harry and I figured he worked out quiet a bit.
"Well, well, well, if it inst Dumbledore's rejects. How was your summer? Any of your friends die because of you?" He drawled lazily. He was such a little jack ass. Asking if one of our friends died was below the belt. To blame their deaths on Harry was even worse. I was going to show him something. He was the type of guy that would flirt with girls just to get some action. I was going to turn the tables on him. I stood up slowly making sure he got a good look down my shirt. I stretched my arms over my head making my small t-shirt raise a few inches to show off my stomach. He had his full attention on me. His eyes slowly slid down my body and I knew I had him.
"I will be back in a few minutes." I said to my friends. I walked towards Draco who was blocking the door. I slipped beside him and ran a hand along him chest. I then let my hand wander down his arm and flashed him a sly smile. As I walked down the hallway I shook my ass. Half way down the hall I was turned around by a gentle hand. I looked up into the grey eyes of Draco Malfoy.
"I don't think I caught your name" He said in his husky drawl. What a complete idiot. Unfortunately I could see why this would work on some girls.
"I never gave it to you. The name's Rachel and I already know your name." I said leaning against the wall. I let my eyes slide down his body. When I looked into his face I noticed he was smirking.
"Do you like what you see?" He asked leaning in slightly. I now noticed my mistake. If he got any closer I would be trapped between the wall and him. Sometimes I don't think my plans out as much as I should. Note to self: Be smarted when leading a guy on.
"That depends. Do you like what you see?" I asked. His eyes slid over my body once more.
"Yes I do like what I see. I haven't seen you before at Hogwarts. I'm guessing you are a transfer because you don't look like a first year." He said leaning in more. By now, he had both arms on either sides of me.
"Yep, I'm a transfer from the United States. I'm going into my sixth year." I said leaning in also. I caught myself and backed up more into the wall. This caused him to move closer once again. I looked into his eyes and noticed they had changed. Before they had been full of want and now they were full of curiosity. SHIT! I had said where I had transferred from. His dad would surly know who I am. I just hop that Lucius never told Draco about me.
"So what house were you put into?" He asked. Damn! That wasn't a question I wanted him to ask. I wonder how he was going to react to this.
"Gryffindor" I stated. He backed of slightly.
"That is interesting. I would have pegged you for Slytherin. You seem too sly to be in a house for the brave." He said leaning in once more. This time he pushed me against the wall with his body.
"My mom is his descendant so I guess its in my blood. Draco, you should ask you father about the name Rachel Hott," I whispered in his ear. I slipped away from the wall and headed back to the compartment. I never looked back but figured Malfoy was standing their shocked. He probably wasn't used to someone walking away for him. When I entered, all my friends looked at me curiously. I burst out laughing as I retold the story. This got many laughs and giggles from everyone else. Harry told me to be careful when tempting Draco Malfoy. I knew I could handle this with out his help. I lay down on a bench and slept the rest of the way to Hogwarts. We got off the train and quickly grabbed a carriage. When I got to the castle entrance I was stopped by McGonagall.
"Dumbledore will introduce you to the school after the sorting. He said not to change into your Hogwarts uniform. Luckily you haven't changed yet." She instructed before walking off. She yelled at other students as she walked.
"Well, I guess I have to make a big entrance. I will see you in there." I said before the others left to get seats. Once everyone was inside the doors closed. I could hear what was going on inside so I didn't miss anything. Finally Dumbledore's strong clam voice rang out across the hall.
"Before we eat I have an announcement. Yes I know I am keeping you from food Mr. Weasley. This year we have a transfer student joining us. She just moved her and I hope she likes it. I know you will enjoy this bubbly your lady," slowly the Great Hall doors opened. I strolled in while he finished his speech. "I introduce you all to Rachel Hott. She is the new sixth year Gryffindor." Three out of four tables burst into applause. I heard many wolf whistles as I strolled toward my friends. On the way I caught Draco's eye and gave him a smirk. His eyes narrowed and he looked down. I sat down in between Harry and Ron who had Ginny and Hermione across from them. Harry gave me a small kiss on my temple and Ron slung an arm around my shoulder. The students broke out into excited whispering. This was going to be a year full of rumors. YIKES! I was bombarded with questions through-out dinner. Harry and Ron were both asked if I was dating one of them. I meet all my fellow Gryffindors and most of the Ravenclaws. I also got asked to the next Hogsmede trip by six different boys.
The gang and I sauntered off to the common room. We quickly claim the seats near the fire. I found it ridiculously funny that Harry was probably the most popular boy in school. He hated attention but attention loved him. Ginny, Hermione, and Ron were also very popular. I guess my name would be added to that list also. I had always been popular; it clung to me everywhere I went. It was like a disease that I couldn't get rid of. Hermione and Ron were the first to head to bed. Ginny soon fallowed Hermione. I still had one more thing to do before bed. I needed a little help from Harry to accomplish this task with out getting in trouble.
