Chapter 3 – Meeting New People"Come on Draco, I don't want to stay here all day." Lucius led the way as Draco followed him, sulking. He was fine by himself; he didn't need his dad to take him everywhere like he was a baby. Then Lucius stopped. "Go in there," he said pointing to Madam Malkin's shop."I'll be over here." Lucius said and walked toward a supplies shop.
Draco shrugged and walked in. "Welcome to my shop. I'm Madam Malkin. Now you will be needing robes I presume?" a lady asked. Draco stared at her coldly, then nodded. Madam Malkin scurried away and Draco sat down to wait. Before long, another boy came in with messy black hair and thick broken glasses. "Hi," the boy said cheerfully. Draco looked at him and raised an eyebrow. "Who are you?"
"Oh, I'm Harry! What's your name?"
Draco didn't know if he wanted to answer... the boy, Harry... seemed a bit... too cheerful for Draco's taste. He definitely didn't look as if he had problems like Draco's. No one could and look that happy. Which means a dad that doesn't take you for an idiot, and a mom. Possibly siblings. A bit of jealousy came into his brain but he shook his head. "I'm Draco Malfoy." And since courtesy required him to, he stuck out his hand and Harry shook it. "So... what are you? Pure, mud, or half?"
"Huh?"
'Hm... probably mud if he doesn't know what I'm talking about.' He wrinkled his nose. He developed a dislike for what he called mudbloods from his father, much like everything else he got. But he explained his question to Harry. "A Pure is with both parents witches... mud is both parents Muggles... you DO know what a muggle is right?" Harry nodded. 'At least he knows SOMETHING.' "Half is only one of your parents being a witch."
Harry took it in then replied, "I'm 'Pure'. Are YOU 'pure'?" he asked Draco, with a smirk at using Draco's lingo.(LOL LINGO!! Ok don't ask why I'm laughing o_O) 'Perhaps he's not too weird after all... if he's going to make fun of someone...' Draco thought. "Pure." He smirked back. 'No one can outsmirk the almighty Draco Malfoy!! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!'
Then the lady came with Draco's clothes and he left.
He went over to his father who was, at the moment, threatening the man at the counter. Draco rolled his eyes and sat down on a chair to wait.
After a long wait...
"Come." Lucius said and walked out the door. Draco slowly stood up and walked out the door, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. They went to the rest of the shops to get the rest of Draco's supplies.
When they got to the Eeylops Owl Emporium, Lucius muttered, "Now we wouldn't want anybody to think ill of me... us... so..." he bought an owl for Draco. It was a big eagle-owl. Draco didn't name it anything because it somehow always made things worse.
"Next week you start school so you better not screw anything up." Lucius told Draco forcefully. Draco rolled his eyes. "No father," he replied coldly. "What do you take me for?"
Lucius raised an eyebrow. "Don't tempt me, Draco," he warned. "As you say your highness." Draco would've bowed but that would've been too silly in front of all these people so he made do with his overly sarcastic voice. Silence. Draco smiled.
The Next Week...
"If you do ANYTHING wrong, you'll regret it terribly boy," Lucius said to Draco's back as he calmly walked through the wall. Lucius shook his head. 'The boy will never become anything if he keeps doing that.'
"Finally free from that idiot," Draco muttered to himself. Then he noticed two people looking down at him. "What the hell do you want?" he asked crossly. Then he took a close look at them and shuddered inwardly. 'If I ever thought anything was ugly, I'm sadly wrong.' "I'm Crabbe," one said. 'Whatever, I can't even tell one ugly ogre from the next.' "I'm Goyle." 'Sad... they expect me to remember who they are.' The only thing Draco could actually remember about them was their names. They stuck out their hand but Draco didn't take it.
"I need to go sit down." Draco hurried away to the train. He looked for an empty seat, anywhere, in vain. Just when he was about to give up hope a voice perked up behind him, "Looking for a seat?" He turned around and saw... a haystack of brown curls. He walked over to where the haystack was on top of a body and saw a face that was attached to the haystack.
"Hi, I'm Hermione Granger." She stuck out her hand. 'Well, at least I know I'm not exactly in Ogreville.' He shook it.
