Chapter 3: Part 1 – Train Ride
Lily sat alone in one of the compartments. Draco was off with his cousin Blaise to hunt for something to eat, when the compartment door slid open. A bushy haired girl, a red haired boy and a round-faced boy stood on the other side, all in uniform.
"Have you seen a toad? Neville's lost his." The round-faced boy looked around the compartment.
"No."
"Oh. Well, you might want to change into your school uniform."
"Thanks."
The trio left and Lily sighed as she pulled a package down. She hoped Draco hadn't done anything stupid.
"Weasley, Mudblood, toad boy."
The trio glared at the group that blocked their path: Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zabini, Crabbe and Goyle.
"Move it Malfoy."
"Why? You three are blocking my way. Crabbe, Goyle, move this riff-raff out of our way."
"What's wrong Malfoy, can't fight your own battles? You're just a coward."
Draco turned a light pink. As he was about to speak, a new voice interrupted him.
"S'cuze me, but can I get through?"
Ron moved out of the trolley's way, as did Draco and Blaise. The four boys slipped passed the trio once the trolley was gone. Crabbe and Goyle went back to their own compartment while Blaise and Draco entered theirs.
Lily was exactly where Draco and Blaise had left her, staring out the window. This time she wore her robes.
"We will be reaching Hogwarts in five minutes time. Please leave your luggage on the train, it will be taken to the school separately.
Ron, Hermione and Neville got into one of the boats that lined the lake. Ron looked back to see Draco standing with Blaise at another boat. His eyes narrowed. He hated the blond who always thought he was better than everyone else. Suddenly, his eyes widened.
"Ron, what's wrong?" Hermione watched him, worried.
"Nothing."
Hermione stared at him for a few moments before turning away. Throughout the entire trek, Ron's eyes were on the girl they had met on the train and her hands, which were held by Draco and Blaise
Part 2 – The Sorting
"My stomach's knotting up."
Draco glanced at Lily. "Don't worry."
"But—"
"I'll be here watching. You don't need to worry. You're my best friend Lily."
She stared up at him, wide-eyed. "Forever?"
"Yeah, my word."
"Black, Lilith!"
A few minutes after the hat had been dropped over her eyes, she was sorted.
"Gryffindor!" Draco's eyes widened. This could be a problem.
