A/N- Thank you to all who reviewed. It really makes me go into my writing.

Disclamer- I own nothing but the plot.

Chapter 3- A friendly chat

I had no worries. I was human, and although I was a little behind in my class, (I
got an A-) Everything went fine. Ron and I had tried going out, but we realized that we were
better off as friends. Malfoy was a little bit nicer, after the event, but he was pretty much
himself.

One Hogsmeade weekend, I was walking with Ron and Harry, when I saw Draco.
He was walking alone. I walked toward him. Ron and Harry stayed where they were, not
coming any closer. They still blamed him for me being a house-elf. I did a bit too, but he did
stop his father from killing me.

"Hey, Ma- Draco? Can we talk?"

"Sure."

Harry and Ron walked off. "I just wanted to thank you again."

"Oh, well. I didn't have much of a choice."

"What are you going to do in the summer?"

"Snape offered a room at his house. It will be alright there."

"That's nice of him."

"What's going to happen with you?"

"My parents moved to a town near Ron. I'll be in biking distance."

"A biking?"

"You know, traveling with a bike."

"..."

"A muggle object."

"Oh.. OK."

Wow, this conversation was going nowhere. "Um... so..."

"Er, I'm going to go look for Crabbe and Goyle."

"Well, thank you."

We were about to walk away, but suddenly a death eater apperated in front of us.
He grabbed us both by the arm. Then he used his free arm to grab an item out of his pocket. It
was a portkey.

We arrived in the Malfoy's house again. The death eater shoved us into the
dungeons. He locked the door with a charm. I recognized it. It could only be removed by the
person who set it.

I looked at Draco, his face was sheet white. It's my fault. I told myself. If I had just
stayed a house-elf, being happy to at least be alive, I'd be safe, and so would Draco. If only I
hadn't... "It's not your fault." Draco said.

"Excuse me?"

"It's not your fault. I would've made myself human again if I was in your shoes."

"But now we are both going to die!"

"Boy, you are a happy little ray of sunshine, aren't you? I remember you saying the
same words last time, and you lived."

"Well, last time I..."

"You what, insulted the Dark Lord?"

"I can't do the same insult can I? We've got our wands. He'll probably make me
duel him. He did that to Harry."

"So? You're a pretty good witch."

"Yeah, and he's a powerful full grown wizard. Use your head."

"Well, you don't have to mope about it."

"You're right. We're going to die. Let's throw a party!"

"Well you don't have to be sarcastic."

Suddenly we heard the steps creaking. Someone was coming...





A/N- Bwahahahahahaha! Cliffhanger! I love those. Sorry, I had to have another one, since the
last chapter didn't have them. Please review!
