"That can easily be arranged." A voice said from behind me. I turned and saw my worst nightmare. Great, just what I needed.
Draco was there. I rolled my eyes. "You kill me and bad things will happen."
"You and what army?" He asked.
"You really want to ask that question?" I asked him, raising my eyesbrow. His smile faded.
"Right, I guess not."
I laughed, "Well, I have to get my things packed. Goodbye, Draco."
I hugged him quickly before running off. I packed my things and put it in the Front Hall. I looked at my necklaces and smiled. Then, I looked at my bracelet. My smile got bigger. I popped up and found my friends in the Courtyard.
"Bella!" I heard. I spun and groaned.
"What, Malfoy?" I asked. He laughed.
"You are sitting in my compartment, no option."
Edward started to come towards him. I laughed, "No option?" I looked at Hermione and smiled. "I have two options. One, I can sit with you, two, I sit with my REAL friends." I pulled a dice out of my pocket. "Even's I sit with my friends, Odds and I sit with you." He nodded and I rolled the dice. Three. Damn! "I sit with you."
He smiled triumphantly. "See you then." I sighed.
"Yeah, see you."
He caught up with Blaise. I turned toward them. "I'm sorry."
Hermione laughed, "You made it fair. Fair chances and you got fair results. You are still coming to the Order, so don't worry. We will see you."
I turned toward Harry. "In case I don't see you from now until the end of the train, I will miss you and write. Because I wrote you all last summer and I never got anything back."
"Uncle Dursley didn't let me write."
I laughed, "I figured as much. If he asks who your writing, say 'A girl that is the daughter of killers. She is on her way. If you don't let me do what I want, I will tell her where we live' That will shut him up."
He laughed, "Sounds perfect."
I hugged him and ran off after Draco. "Wait up!" I yelled.
He smiled, "Just couldn't stay away, huh?"
I smiled, "No chance we are getting back together, Draco. I am still taken."
His smile stayed put. "Yeah, well, who are you going to go to when he dumps you?"
I shrugged, "Who says he'll dump me?"
I heard a squeal and looked toward the source. Alice, and she was having a vision. She whispered something to Jasper and ran off toward the rest of her family, which was watching me intently. I turned toward's Draco.
"Hmm?" I asked him.
He looked toward the ground, "Well, what if Cullen kills him?"
I laughed, "Cullen isn't even allowed near him. It was Dumbledore's orders. So, if you want to get on the train before it leaves, I suggest we start moving."
He rolled his eyes and Blaise walked ahead of us to give us some privacy, but I wasn't having that.
"Yo, Blaise!" He spun. "You don't have to walk ahead, we are all in this together. Besides, it will be less miserable to have you around than to be with Drake the whole time. . . by myself."
Blaise laughed, "Right, I just thought you two love birds would love to chat."
I glared, "There are no love birds here. There is a taken bird and a needy bird. I think you can figure out who is who."
He laughed, "Right, my bad."
I shook my head, laughing. We we got on the Slytherin car, everyone looked at my entrance.
"What the hell are you looking at?" I snapped. They all busied themselves and I smiled. I turned towards Draco, "I could get used to this."
He laughed, "Your mother would be proud."
I smiled, "You know she is."
Draco walked into a full booth and waved his hand. The first years sitting there got up and split faster than a vampire.
I laughed, "You don't need to scare the children, Draco. They are, after all, children."
He smiled, "Well, they were in our seats."
I sighed, "They were keeping them warm for us, Draco. There is a difference."
Blaise laughed, "There's the spirit!"
I rolled my eyes and scooted it. Blaise got in next to me and Draco was across from me. Next to him was Pansy. I resisted the urge to laugh as she sat down.
"Hello, Blaise, Draco. . ." She looked me over, "Who are you?" She looked at my robes. "Gryffindor? Well, I think we should show her a proper welcome to the car."
I laughed, "Oh, Pansy, I think I should show you what a bitch looks like."
I used my power to pull out a mirror and held it in front of her face. Draco cracked up laughing and Blaise was laughing so hard he was gasping for breath. I smirked, "I think you should think about who I am before you talk."
She was staring at me, waiting for me to sprout horns. She looked at me closely. "Like I said, who are you?"
I shrugged, "Bellatrix Black. Don't I look just like my mother?"
She blanched, "Your Lestrange's daughter?"
I smiled, "Now she gets it!"
She huffed and got up, "I don't associate with any blood of traitors."
I laughed, "Really? Look at yourself, you are talking to a Gryffindor. Isn't that a trait of tratorism, or is it a tratorious trait?"
Blaise laughed louder and a few people looked at us. Draco was smiling.
Pansy blinked, "What?"
"Exactly!" I laughed.
She walked away and I looked at Draco, who was smiling? "What?"
He laughed, "Nothing."
I shrugged, "I was just taking out the trash. Speaking of trash, I'm suprised the Cullen's aren't here yet. Usually I can't walk three feet without them talking to me."
Draco looked up as the door opened, and frowned. "You just called the devil himself."
I sighed and looked at where he was. "Look, a true Gryffindor is here!" I shouted. Everyone turned their heads toward Edward. He froze and looked at me, incredulous.
"Bella, what-?"
Everyone's head turned to me, and then back to Edward. Pansy stood up and walked up to him, but talked loud enough for all of us to hear.
"Bella has shown more Slytherin spirit then I have seen in most Slytherin's in my life. She is a true Slytherin, but you, you are just the dirt on our shoes."
I blinked and looked at Pansy. "What?"
"Bella may be born from Slytherin's, but in all our eyes, she is still a Slytherin."
I blinked again and looked at Draco, who was beaming. "Did you-"
"You told her off, and she respects anyone that can tell her off. So, this was all you."
"But I-"
He held up his hand.
"So, if you come after Bella again, I will go after you, myself. So, think again before you enter our territory."
I smiled, "This is probably the most awkward moment I've ever been in."
Draco laughed. "Well done, Pansy!"
I laughed as Pansy smiled and watched Edward run out of the car. She came over to our table. "Thanks." I said.
She smiled, "No problem. You showed me you were worth the salt."
I raised my eyebrow, "You're comparing me to salt."
She smiled, "No, I was saying you are worth talking to, even if your mother left the Dark Lord's side."
I shrugged, "Well, I am still a Gryffindor, so-"
"So, you still have Slytherin parents."
I smiled, "I guess I do. Well, I respect you as well, I just probably won't come over to your house or anything, you know. There are certain reasons, like a war breaking out right then."
She laughed, "Well, then I will cross that off my list."
I rolled my eyes and she sat. We talked and when the train rolled into the station, I gave her a hug and handed her my cell number. "Call me, and if you don't know how to use a phone, write me. No matter what your problem is, I'll answer as best I can."
She nodded. "Same goes for you. Write. It was really nice to get to know you."
I smiled, "Any time. Bye!" I turned toward Blaise, hugging him. "Bye, Blaise. You can write too. I won't leave you out of my circle." He laughed and I hugged Draco, "You know the rules, so no need to repeat them."
He laughed, "Go catch up with the Weasel's and the Mudblood."
I sighed, "It's Ron, Ginny, and Hermione, Draco. Get it right."
He shrugged, "Same thing. Bye."
I nodded and ran off. "Guys, wait up!" I yelled. They froze and I bumped into Hermione. "Seriously? You had to stop?"
She laughed. "Welcome to the land of the living."
I laughed and saw Pansy, "Hey, Pansy!" She looked at me and smiled.
"Don't worry, I'll write!"
I nodded, smiling. "I'll hold you to it!"
She went over to her parents and Hermione punched me in the arm. "Ow! What was that for?"
Ron was still choking on air and Harry was staring at me with concern. "Are you okay?"
I nodded, "Yeah, why?"
"Why?" Ron shouted. "I'll tell you bloody why! You just told Pansy Park-in-son," he broke the word into three seperate words, "to write you. Are you telling me you don't know what is up?"
I laughed, "Seriously, Ron. You had to be there to believe me." Blaise walked by and punched me in the arm.
"Bye, Blaise!" I laughed, rubbing my arm. Harry made me face him.
"We are losing you! You aren't hanging out with Malfoy anymore."
I shrugged, "That's what you think. I can hang out with Cuzin Drake if I want. He is just my cousin."
I saw Cissa and Lucius. I held up my finger, "I'm going to talk to them."
I didn't get a chance to talk to them because they apparated before I could make it through the crowd. I frowned and walked toward where they were to find them gone. I turned around and saw some red heads talking to them and smiled. Those were my red heads. I walked up behind them.
Fred's smile grew when he saw me. "Hello, Bella."
I laughed, "Why so formal, Fred?"
He smiled and pulled me into a hug, spinning me around. I giggled. He set me down and kissed me. "I missed you."
I smiled against his lips, "I missed you too."
He kissed me again, his hand cupping my cheek. I heard someone clear their throat and I pulled away, blushing. "Sorry."
Molly laughed and hugged me. "Bella, I missed you."
I smiled, hugging her. "I missed you as well, Molly."
She laughed and I noticed no dogs were with her. "No dogs?"
She looked at her feet as if she was expecting them to be there. "No, they had to stay at home. Too many people recognized them last time."
I shook my head, "Crazy."
She laughed and we apparated back home. Well, Hermione, Ron, and Ginny had side-long apparation, while the rest of us just apparated. I was taught apparation for my mission, while Hermione didn't. She was totally jealous. We landed at the Weasley house. I looked at Molly. "There are no wards?"
She shook her head, "No, they are there, we just usually stay at the order, but I figured we could come home for summer."
I smiled, "Let's hope it doesn't back-fire." I mumbled.
