Chapter Two: The Story Unfolds

Ryan and Gabrielle walked into the prefects' compartment and found it was empty. Apparently they weren't as late as they thought they were. They chose a booth near the center and sat down.

"So Gabrielle tell me about your summer." Said Ryan.

"Well, first off I had another premonition." Said Gabrielle. "I was standing in the Great Hall giving some type of speech at first right, well then I was once again in the Great Hall again only now it's Christmas and I'm at a Masquerade Ball dancing with a guy. Then When I look up into his masked face I switch and I'm in a destroyed classroom. It's cold and dark and scary. I can feel my forehead bleeding and then I realize there is someone lying on the floor next to me. As I crouch down to see who it is the vision fades away."

"Wow! That's not good. Are you okay?" he asked.

"Yeah I'm fine. I just hope whoever that boy is will be."

"Yeah it's definitely not good. 'Cause I mean the classroom scene is bad enough but, speaking in public, and then you're with a guy. Wow that must be scary knowing you gonna be in those situations that you're terrible with!" Said Ryan laughing.

"Hey! You little shit! That's not funny." She said hitting him softly, laughing herself.

"So, okay that happened. But what else? It looks like you've had an eventful summer. Was that Brigette I saw you with? " Asked Ryan.

"Yeah it was. She moved here from France because her best friend's twi-" started Gabrielle but she stopped when she heard someone coming. She didn't want Brigette to overhear her talking about it all. Brigette didn't need that right now. But it wasn't Brigette who entered the room. It was Draco Malfoy. By the looks of it he had had an eventful summer as well. He looked as though he'd grown four or five inches taller and was as handsome as ever. His deep blue eyes sparkled as he smiled at Gabrielle.

"I hope I haven't interrupted anything." Said Draco.

"No. Not really. We're just talking." Said Gabrielle. Now some people might have been uncomfortable with having a somewhat private conversation in front of Draco Malfoy. But Gabrielle was a trusting person and even though she knew he was a quote- unquote "bad boy" she had never had a problem with him before so she figured it'd be no problem having him in there.

"Okay. I see. I don't seem to remember meeting you. What's you're name?" Draco asked Gabrielle as Ryan rolled his eyes. Ryan had seen Draco work his charm on other girls before and could tell where he was going.

"I'm Gabrielle Sora Lancaster. I'm the other Ravenclaw fifth year prefect." She said with a smile.

"Well I am glad to finally meet you Gabrielle Sora Lancaster. I'm Draco Joseph Malfoy." Draco said.

"I know. So you are the Slytherin Prefect. Who's the other one?" asked Gabrielle.

"Oh. It's Pansy Parkinson, the annoying little twit. She won't leave me alone." Said Draco with a grin. "But I can deal with it." said Draco sitting down next to Gabrielle.

"Yeah but anyway" said Gabrielle desperate to veer the subject away from female admirers of Draco's to anything else. "Like I was saying Brigette transferred here from Buexbatons because at the very beginning of summer she witnessed her best friend's twin die at the hands of Lord Voldemort. Brigette and Leo, her best friend, were devastated at the loss of his twin sister Deirdre. So Aunt Eleanor and Uncle Charles decide it's best to move away to safety. I can't believe they ripped Brigette away from her life and Leo. She's having a hard time. She misses Deirdre so much and wants Leo with her. They've been friends forever. He said he's coming to visit at Christmas. Poor guy." Explained Gabrielle.

"That's horrible." Said Ryan.

"Yeah." Said Gabrielle. She was wondering why Draco hadn't commented so she turned slightly to get a better view of him. Draco had his elbows on the table and his head in his hands running his fingers through his hair. Her looked up at Gabrielle with remorse in his eyes.

"Yeah, but what else happened?" asked Ryan changing the subject.

"Oh well, since you weren't there and I was bored out of my mind Mom set me up with a job as a lifeguard at the Country Club. Little did I know that the lifeguards wee part of a swim team. So at the end of summer the end result is I as a terrific swimmer with a great tan who could save and unfortunate first year that fell in the lake, and I am in the best shape of my life. All in all I'd say it's a good deal." Said Gabrielle.

"I'd say so. I was wondering how in the world you'd, pardon me for the rudeness but, lost all that weight. You look really good Gabrielle." Said Ryan.

"Thank you. And don't worry I'm not gonna hit you for the fat comment. There's a witness." Said Gabrielle gesturing towards Draco.

"Nah, really I don't mind at all. Go ahead, hit him." Said Draco relaxing and giving Gabrielle a sly grin.

"I have permission. Ha ha!" she said as she reached across the table and hit Ryan. They all felt a lurch and knew the train had started moving. Within the next ten minutes the rest of the prefects had filed in.

Draco figured that after the prefects' meeting he would go and find his mystery girl. By the looks of it she may already be with Ryan but who is Draco Malfoy to say no to a challenge. He headed to the prefects' compartment but slowed down when he heard voices one guy and one girl. He knew Ryan would be in there so he wondered who the female Ravenclaw prefect would be. He turned to go in and was shocked to find that his mystery woman was sitting across from McFee. She turned to look at him. Wow she is hot! I can't wait to get her alone. Now's my chance. She's gorgeous. Thought Draco. He knew it was now or never for a first impression.

"Hi, I hope I'm not interrupting anything." Draco said as he flashed his charming and sexy smile at her.

"No not really. We're just talking." Said the mystery woman smiling back.

"Okay. I see. I don't seem to remember meeting you. What's you're name?" asked Draco charmingly.

"I'm Gabrielle Sora Lancaster. I'm the other Ravenclaw fifth year prefect." She said again smiling at him. He couldn't get enough of her smile.

"Well I am glad to finally meet you Gabrielle Sora Lancaster. I'm Draco Joseph Malfoy." Draco said.

"I know. So you are the Slytherin Prefect. Who's the other one?" asked Gabrielle.

"Oh. It's Pansy Parkinson, the annoying little twit. She won't leave me alone." Said Draco with a grin. "But I can deal with it." said Draco sitting down next to Gabrielle and smiling.

He looked over at Ryan who was shaking his head and laughing silently. From the way he was acting Draco decided he and Gabrielle must just be friends. Hell if he had this girl and another guy was moving in on her he'd do something about it. She started talking about her summer. Something about her cousin and Voldemort. That caught his attention. Apparently, he murdered Gabrielle's cousin's friend's twin this summer. Draco was sick to his stomach. He just knew his father had something to do with it and it disgusted him. Luckily McFee changed the subject to her being a lifeguard. He just enjoyed being in this girl's company so he leaned back and relaxed. Eventually the train started and the rest of the prefects showed up. Professor McGonagal showed up and started lecturing them about their duties and Draco fell asleep next to Gabrielle.
