Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter... but if I did Sirius would NOT be dead, and Ron and Hermione would hook up... and Dolores Umbridge would DIE... and... oh well I'll get on with the next chapter

Author's Note: Okay, next chapter. Sorry it's taken so long, I've been really busy. But oh well here it is! Oh and it's kind of boring... but I don't know what to happen next! If anyone has any ideas please let me know in a review!

As Harry was walking past all the wizard shops of Diagon Alley, he noticed a tall blonde walking toward him.

"Harry... I need to talk to you." Malfoy said taking hold of Harry's arm and pulling him aside.

"What?" Harry said as soon as Malfoy let go of him

"Why were you with Hermione Granger yesterday?" Malfoy asked him

"I told you, Malfoy... she's my friend." Harry said

"No, Harry... she is not your friend. That would be like me being friends with her." Malfoy said

"Malfoy... you don't get it, okay? She is my friend, and so is Ron." Harry said

"That weasel?! He is not your friend! I can't believe you!" Malfoy said

"Well believe it... because it's true." Harry said, "If you want you can hate me from now on, or if you want you can still be friends with me... either way it doesn't matter to me."

Malfoy stood there like he was thinking, when Harry noticed Ron and Hermione walk by

"Hold on a second." Harry said as he ran to catch up with Ron and Hermione

"Hey guys, could you hold on just a second? Malfoy is talking to me." Harry said

"Sure." Hermione said as Harry started to walk back to Malfoy, "Wait, Harry?"

Harry turned back around, "Yeah?"

"Don't start hating each other because of us. You were best friends with him, in this life... you don't have to be friends with Ron and I." Hermione said

Harry shook his head and started walking again

"So, anyway..." Harry said as he faced Malfoy once again

"I thought about it... and I still want to be friends with you, as long as I don't have to hang out with them." Malfoy said glaring at Ron and Hermione

"Alright... well I'm still gonna hang out with them. But I can hang out with you... some other time." Harry said

Malfoy and Harry did some kind of hand shake, Ron and Hermione saw this, "Come on, Ron... he's chosen Malfoy." Hermione said as they both started to walk away

"I'll see you later then." Harry said to Malfoy as he noticed Ron and Hermione had left

He then started to run to catch up with them, "Ron, Hermione! Wait!"

Hermione turned around, "What? You've chosen Malfoy, it's okay."

"No... no you don't get it. I've chosen both of you. I told Malfoy that if he wanted to be my friend he'd have to deal with me being friends with you." Harry said

"That's really sweet, Harry... but you don't have to-" Hermione said, but Harry cut her off

"No... just never mind, I'm friends with all of you." Harry said, "What's wrong, Ron? You haven't spoken to me all day."

"Nothing..." Ron said looking down at Hermione

Harry grabbed Ron's arm, "Hermione, this will only take a second... you don't mind do you?" Harry said

"Oh no... not at all." Hermione said letting go of Ron's hand

Harry pulled Ron away from Hermione to the other side of the street

"What is wrong? I know when something's bothering you and some is bothering you, Ron." Harry said

"No... Harry. Just no, I'm fine." Ron said avoiding eye contact with Harry

Harry rolled his eyes, "Tell me what's wrong, Ron."

"Do you really wanna know what's wrong, Harry?" Ron said looking Harry in the eye

"Yes!" Harry said

Author's Note: Okay, well you'll just have to wait until the next chapter to know what's REALLY bothering little Ronniekins, lol.
