My muses would like to say something to all of the fabulous readers...

Draco- Yes, I would thank you Alecia. *ahem* Alecia does not own me, Harry, or any of the other wonderful and not so wonderful--

Alecia- Draco, please behave yourself...

Draco- Sorry. As I was saying...All of the characters belong to J. K. Rowling, the most wonderful author I have ever met.

Harry- *coughsuckupcough*

Draco- *glares*

Harry- Please enjoy the story, and be sure to review afterwards. *sticks tongue out at Draco*

Draco- Flames are accepted, as long as they will help Alecia to improve her fic.

Alecia- Thanks to both of you, and now on with the story!

Chapter 2 :::A New Family:::

Harry followed slowly, first down the right staircase, then into the fifth door on the left side of the hallway.

There were two beds inside the room, along with two desks, two big, fluffy green chairs, and one bathroom. The bathroom was decorated in green tiles on the walls, floors and in the shower. It also had two sinks, one for each boy.

The Slytherin dormitories were much larger than the Gryffindor ones, but Harry decided to ask about that later.

"Um, Professor? Who am I sharing this room with?" Dumbledore smiled with the usual twinkle in his blue eyes before replying, "Mr. Malfoy will be joining you in a day's time."

Harry was at a loss for words. He managed to do a perfect goldfish impersonation, which only made the headmaster chuckle loudly. Harry figured it was so loud because of the high ceilings in the room, which caused even the tiniest sound to echo.

"I guess we should at least try to be civil toward eachother since we will be sharing a dorm for the next two years." Harry said. He noticed a figure walk up behind Dumbledore but said nothing. He saw the silvery blonde hair, and new instantly it was Draco Malfoy standing there. "That would be great, Harry, if only Mr. Malfoy would agree to those terms." Dumbledore replied.

"Well, why don't I ask him myself? Well, Malfoy, what do you say? Truce?" Harry responded.

The headmaster looked genuinely confused by Harry's question. He nearly jumped when he heard the response.

"Yes, I agree Potter. Actually, that sounds like one of the most intelligent things you've said so far." Draco drawled.

Harry smiled at the headmaster's surprised look upon hearing Draco's voice. Draco smirked back at Harry before Dumbledore finally spoke up.

"Ah, Draco, I didn't realize you would be here early." He said.

"Professor Dumbledore, may I speak with you in private, please?" Draco asked.

"I'm going down to the kitchens to get dinner anyway, so, I'll see you both later." Harry answered.

"Okay," Dumbledore started, " I'll speak with you after you have eaten and finished unpacking your things."

"Yes, sir, goodbye." Harry said as he walked out of the dormitory.

When Harry was gone, Dumbledore asked, "What happened today, Draco?"

"My father sent me here early because I would not take the dark mark. I don't support Voldemort and he does not support my decision." Draco responded.

"Well, Draco, I have some good news and some interesting news. The good news is that you don't ever have to see Lucius and Narcissa again." Dumbledore replied.

Draco looked relieved as he asked, "Really? How is that possible?"

"They are not your real parents, Draco." Dumbledore answered in his most soothing voice.

"Who are my real parents then?" Draco questioned.

"Lily and James Potter. When they were killed by Voldemort, you were taken to the Malfoy's, and Harry was taken to the Dursley's. We did not want the Dursley's having two more children to take care of , so the Malfoy's were glad to take you." Dumbledore's eyes regained their normal amused twinkle once again.

"So, that means Potter is my brother?"

"Twin brother, Draco. You may not look alike, but that is because you are fraternal twins." Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Twins? Does Po--Harry know about this?"

"Not yet, Draco he does not. I plan to tell him when you both finish getting settled in. I do wonder how Harry will take this bit of information?" Dumbledore thought this last part aloud.

"What bit of information?" Harry asked, nearly scaring the headmaster out of his skin.

"Ah, Mr. Potter, we were just discussing you."

"What about me? Should I be worried?" Harry asked, sounding slightly scared.

"No, Harry there hasn't been a reason to get worried about anything. It's nothing terrible, I find it rather happy news myself." Dumbledore said.

"Oh, yes. I'm ecstatic. I have always dreamed of being the great Harry Potter's twin brother." Draco said with a hint of sarcasm in his voice.

"Really? Do you mean it? Do you want to be brothers with me, Draco?" Harry asked.

"Well, I'm glad it's you, and not someone who I don't trust." Draco responded. "What are you doing in Slytherin anyway?" He continued.

"I got resorted." Harry answered.

"How did you get resorted? That's never happened before."

"Well, the hat wanted to put me in Slytherin to begin with. When Dumbledore asked me if I would like to try the hat again to see if it still want that, I said okay. So, here I am." Harry explained.

"Oh, that's interesting. So are we friends, or just enemies with a truce?" Draco asked.

"We're better than friends, we're family. Or, better yet, we're twins." Harry countered.

"Yeah, twins." Draco agreed, smiling.

Alecia- Ha! And I had you thinkin' it was gonna be slash! I am sooooo good. *grins*

Draco and Harry at exactly the same time- Oh, yeah, I have a kool twin.

Alecia- That was just too weird.

Harry- Yeah, it was. Let's not do that anymore, Draco.

Draco- Definitely up there towards the top of most weird things.

Alecia- *shakes head slowly* Tsk, tsk, tsk.

Harry- Please review...

Draco- Alecia should have Chapter 3 up soon...

Harry- Since she loves her fans...

Alecia- And my adorable muses...*giggles*

Draco- There she goes again with the giggling. She has been doing that all frickin' day!

Alecia- Will you two shut up already? People will stop reading and not review if we keep going on like this!

Harry- Flames are welcome if they will help Alecia improve her fic. Thank you that is all.

Draco- You are all excused. Have a nice day.

Alecia- Thanks to the following people for Reviews in Chapter 1:

MissPatriciaPotter- I hope you like this chapter too. o_0

Shireen Mclean- I will try to make the chapters longer and more detailed from now on...I just wasn't really sure how to get the story started, but now I am off to a solid start. Thanks for the beta offer, but I have had no other offers, so I don't have any comparisons.

Everybody keep the reviews coming!!
