Chapter Three:
Payton crossed the room. A dark shadow rushed across the opposite wall. Harry appeared out of thin air. He started to walk toward her. She knew that she couldn't tell him who she was. Even if she was aloud to tell him, he wouldn't believe her. Suddenly Dumbledore burst into the room and silently ushered Harry out. Payton was left standing by herself in the windowless and dark room.
Payton suddenly woke from her dream. A tear ran unnoticed down her check. Just thinking of Harry always made her cry. He would never know her true identity even if she did meat her. Why couldn't he know? Why did Dumbledore refuse to allow Harry to know about her? Did Dumbledore want Harry to live his whole life in ignorance about her? Why did Dumbledore have to do this to her?
There was a rustle at the door. Draco sauntered in without waiting for her reply. Seeing her laying spread eagle on her bed with tears rolling down her check startled him. He quickly rushed over to Payton's side.
"What's the matter Pay?" Draco asked looking concerned.
"Nothing Draco," She replied. "Just a dream, a really really bad dream. So what brings you to my room at..." Payton glanced at her alarm clock "7:00 in the morning?"
"Father sent me to see if you were awake. Since we couldn't go last night, we are going today. We are leaving for Diagon Alley really soon so you need to get ready and come downstairs." Draco left once he stopped talking.
Payton walked over to her closet. She started to get ready and while she did she thought of why they couldn't go yesterday. Mr. Malfoy had a death eater meeting. The Minister of Magic had not arrested Malfoy because he paid humungous amounts to the Ministry. Payton picked out a light blue tank top and some black dickies. She combed out the snarls in her beautiful blonde hair and put it in a pony on the top of her hair. Payton applied some dark black mascara and gray eyeliner then a coat of blue eye shadow. Payton usually wore blue because it really contrasted with her startling green eyes.
Fifteen minutes later Payton ambled into the Malfoy's kitchen. The beautifully decorated rooms had always reminded her of Durmstrang. Payton would miss all her friends at Durmstrang, but she was finally able to go to Hogwarts which made her very happy.
Draco appeared behind her. "I will call father." He told her then walked away.
Payton nodded to herself and then sat down on a chair at the bar. She had never felt quite comfortable at the Malfoy's mansion. Draco and Payton had always gotten along well surprisingly. They never talked much but they had a mutual respect for each other that could not be broken. Payton had noticed that Draco had changed in the past two years. He had grown considerably. Not just in height. He had become a better person in many ways, though he never showed that side to his father. Payton noticed that Draco pretended to be very evil whenever his father was around, but when he talked to her or anyone else, he was a pure gentleman. She had always liked Draco but she started to like him in different ways over the past year.
Payton's mind slowly wandered to the fact that in a mere month she was going to meet Harry Potter, the boy who lived. Payton also thought of her love to be in Gryffindor, not only because of Harry being in that house, but also that her parents had been in Gryffindor. The only problem about being in Gryffindor was the Malfoy's. She couldn't risk being kicked out of the Malfoy's house just because she wasn't in Slytherin. The only place she could go during the break would be her best friend Tess's house. Tess had been at Durmstrang with Payton. Payton would have loved to live with Tess if it had been under different circumstances. If Payton lived with Tess, she would never be able to go to Hogwarts. Going to Durmstrang would be better than before since Karkaroff had fled, but Payton could not risk not meeting Harry.
She HAD to meet Harry.
