"Hi Draco." Gabrielle said, smiling.
"Gabrielle! I thought you were transferring." Malfoy said as he looked left and right to check if any one was around.
"I am. I'm transferring to Hogwarts." Gabrielle said as Malfoy smiled.
"Really?" Malfoy asked.
"Yes." Gabrielle replied.
"What house are you in? I bet your in Slytherin." Malfoy said, grinning.
"I'm actually in Ravenclaw." Gabrielle said as Malfoy's grin disappeared.
"Ravenclaw? Those smart asses?" Malfoy said as Gabrielle cocked her right eyebrow.
"You don't like them?" she asked.
"I like you but not the other people in your house."
"Oh."
"You sound so disappointed. Don't worry. I'll have Slytherins be your friends if you don't like your house." Draco said as he took her hand.
"It's okay. I can blend." she replied.
"I must be going. I just had to check on my order on the Firebolt 2." Malfoy said as Gabrielle nodded.
"Good to see you, Gabrielle. See you at Hogwarts." Malfoy said as Gabrielle nodded.
"Same to you." she said before Malfoy walked away from her and she walked back to the small table in front of the ice cream parlor.
"Ooo." Ron said as Gabrielle grinned.
"See?" Gabrielle said, sitting down.
"He does like you." Harry said as Hermione nodded.
"Well, there's no chance of getting me cause I'm with Harry now." Gabrielle said, laughing.
"Actually, Harry and Malfoy are arrivals at school." Hermione said as Gabrielle gaped slightly at her.
"Uh oh." she replied.
"Don't worry. We'll take care of that one, right Hermione?" Ron said as Hermione nodded.
"Okay then." Gabrielle said as she looked at the sky. It began to turn dark.
"Well, I have to go. It was nice talking to all of you." Gabrielle said, smiling.
"Nice to meet you." Hermione said, smiling.
"Bye!" Ron and Harry said in unison as Gabrielle stood up and walked away. Mr. Weasley and Ginny came back.
"Gabrielle left?" Mr. Weasley asked.
"Yeah. You just missed her." Harry said as Mr. Weasley stomped his foot a little.
"Bloody." Mr. Weasley said, sighing.
"Let's go. I got all your books apparated to the Burrow." Mr. Weasley said as they three nodded and got up.
Back at the Burrow
"She's a nice girl." Hermione said as they walked up the stairs after eating their dinner.
"Yeah." Ron agreed.
"I didn't really talk to her." Ginny said, shrugging her shoulders.
"But I did see a tattoo." Ginny said as Harry, Hermione, and Ron stopped in their tracks on the stairs.
"Tattoo?! Where?!" Ron said, curiosity and surprise.
"Well, I only saw part of it on her left hip. Its some bird. It didn't really have feathers though. It was weird." Ginny said as she thought, "It was black and white though so the bird is black but I doubt its a black bird."
"Hmmm...a bird that doesn't have feathers." Hermione thought.
"It can be a Phoenix. Those are the only birds that have fire for feathers." she said as Ron and Harry shrugged. Harry didn't know what to say at all. He was speechless.
"Kids! Go upstairs! You have to get on the Hogwarts train tomorrow with Arthur!" Mrs. Weasley yelled from the kitchen. The four ran up the stairs rapidly and went into their rooms.
"Gabrielle! I thought you were transferring." Malfoy said as he looked left and right to check if any one was around.
"I am. I'm transferring to Hogwarts." Gabrielle said as Malfoy smiled.
