Chapter 2

She made her way down the train to a cart searching every other one for her Gryffindor friends. As she passed by one of the compartment doors she heard a familiar voice that belong to a certain Hermione Granger.

As she opened the door the girl inside speaking stopped. Hermione looked the girl over then jumped up and threw her arms around Kelsey. "Ahh, I heard you were back but didn't believe it! How are you?!"

Kelsey laughed as she joined Hermione in sitting down; both Harry and Ron were staring at her with blank, and yet, stunned expressions. "I've been well, how about you. Are you getting on well with two guys?"

Hermione laughed at this. "I have nothing compared to what I heard you had to deal with, five?"

Kelsey nodded and laughed, "Yep." She looked Hermione over, "You look pretty good!"

"Yeah, it seems we all grew up some last year. At least by the looks on their," she motioned to Harry and Ron, "you did."

"Well, it's great to be back. I just wanted to stop in and say hi, and now I have so, I'll be on my way. Good bye Harry, Ron." She smiled at Hermione, "I'll see you around, don't let it be too long until we have a talk, I haven't been able to in such a long time. Lord knows I am so glad to not have been here last year for that witch!"

Hermione's face wrinkled up, "Don't we all wish to have been as lucky as you."

Kelsey looked at her grimly as she walked out the door and shut it behind her.

"Okay, I think that's all," she thought out loud.

As she started walking away she heard someone say her name. "... Yeah, she's back. I saw her with my own eyes. She thinks she's going to have Draco, she is so wrong. That little bitch can't have my man."

"But you don't think she'll be interested in him do you?" another voice asked.

"How could she not be; look at him."

The other person laughed, "You're right. Who would not want to be with him?"

"She just a stupid mud blood, he won't fall for her...."

"What are you doing?" a voice whispered in her ear.

She nearly screamed with shock. She turned to see who it was. She should have known, how could it not be Malfoy? She rolled her eyes and said to him, "come on, I won't tell you out here." She walked back with him to his compartment.

Crabbe and Goyle popped out of their seats when Draco came in and went to stand outside again.

"What," she said taking a seat across from him, "do you like have them trained or something."

He eyed her playfully. "What's it to you?"

"Umm... okay, what ever."

He was grinning like Cheshire cat. "So what was that all about before?"

She laughed, "Oh, that. Yeah it seems your girlfriend doesn't like my being back."

"What?" he asked puzzled, "who?"

"I have a pretty good idea but I was hoping you could tell me."

"Sorry, couldn't say."

"Well then, your little Pansy thinks that she owns you and I'm going to try and take you from her." She saw his eyes wander once more. "Malfoy, can you not keep your attention focused?"

"Oh, believe me, I am; much more than you know."

"Ahh! You are impossible!"

"Hey, you're the one who said I could touch them if I wanted to."

Her eyes grew very wide for a moment and the narrowed back to their original shape. "Fine then," she said very delicately, and sexy. She crossed the compartment and sat down on his lap. She bit her lip and spoke, "Look at them all you want."

"Damn..." he breathed.

She looked innocently at him through the top of her eyes. "What, do I intimidate you?" she barely breathed out.

"You better believe it. It takes a real man to be able to admit that," he said after a short pause. One of his arms was around her. "And it takes a real woman to intimidate a man." She put her arms around his neck. Very smoothly he slid his hand onto the bare part of her thy. "So that must mean you're a real woman. You know... being intimidated isn't necessarily a bad thing. Intimidate and intimate sound a lot a like if you ask me."

She breathed a small laugh. "That' why I don't"

He stared straight back into her eyes, his squinted a little, as if looking for something.

This made her a bit uncomfortable, but she didn't show it.

"Your eyes are blue," she stated plainly. She looked at him questioningly. "You are very much not the girl you used to be."

"I know.... You've said that a few times now. What I want to know is why. Sure I look different now but-"

"Your looks have changed true enough," he interrupted. "But I'm not talking about that." He subconsciously slid his hand a little further up her thy and her a bit tighter.

Their eye level was even, which just went to show how tall he had grown since they last saw.

"There's something different about the feel of you."

"Yes, and you should know, seeing as where your hands are."

"Oh," he looked down, "would you look at that." He didn't move his hand. "You sat on my lap first." He grinned smartly. "Now as I was saying before I was cut off.... The aura around you has changed-"

"Oh please tell me you don't believe in that Professor Trelawany shite."

He continued as it she hadn't spoken. "We'll see this year it it's for the better or worse."

"Hmm, I guess we will."

There was a few minutes pause before they felt the train come to a sudden stop. The stop was so rough and sudden they flew out of the seat and onto the floor.

"Woo," she laughed, "what was that?"

He shook his head, but didn't move from atop of her. "Are you okay?"

"I am now," she said in a mock sexy voice. She tried to keep a straight face, but to no avail; she laughed out loud. "Okay, you win this round, get off of me."

He looked at her oddly and didn't move. His expression changed to smug as he spoke, "Who says I'm done?"

"I do." She rolled him over and stood up. She went to reach for the door, but got a big surprise. She came face to face with Draco's little girlfriend. "Oh, hello Pansy," Kelsey looked back and gave Draco a devious smile.

"Now that's what I like to see," he whispered at her smile.

Kelsey stood up from Draco's side and forced the door open a little more. She started walking away from the compartment; in search of her friends.
