Chapter 2

Harry was running. He ran and ran. Where? Towards a white coloured door ahead of him. Why? He had no idea. All he knew was he needed to get to the white door because if he did, something good would happen. What? Again, he didn't know. His legs seemed to weigh stones and every step he took never seemed to get him anywhere near the door. The door stood there, many feet away, its golden handle laughed at him. Harry tried to run faster. Finally, his hand was in reach of the handle, his hand was coming down on it. Close, so close...

'POTTER! '

Harry woke with a jerk. He blinked once, twice, three times before reaching for his glasses. He gazed at the green hangings around him. The happenings of the previous night flooded into his mind. Harry groaned.

'POTTER IF YOU DON'T GET OUT OF THAT BED RIGHT NOW I'M GOING TO SHOVE THAT BROOMSTICK OF YOURS DOWN YOUR THROAT!'

Harry got out of bed to see Malfoy fixing his tie. 'Finally.' Malfoy said.

'What do I wear? I only have my Gryffindor clothes.' Harry asked.

Malfoy nodded towards a wooden chair with a shirt, trousers, a Slytherin robe and a Slytherin tie lying on top of it.

'Complements of Professor Dumbledore' Malfoy muttered. 'now come on, I'm in charge of you until you go back where you came from.'

'That's nice.'

'I thought so.'

Harry put on the shirt, new underwear, socks and the trousers. He stared at the tie. It was the wrong colour for him. It was green and silver, not red and gold. He felt he would be betraying Gryffindor if he put it on. Malfoy noticed.

'Don't put it on.' Malfoy said, all hate and anger disappeared from his voice. Harry looked at him.

'What?' Harry asked.

Malfoy shrugged. 'if I was in your position, I wouldn't wear something that made me feel I was betraying my house. So don't wear it. Forget your tie, it's not important. And you can borrow my plain robes; they don't have any colour on them apart from black. So you won't be looked on as a Slytherin.'

He opened his wardrobe and pulled out a black robe. He threw it to Harry, who caught it.

Harry was shocked to say the least. 'Em, Malfoy...' he said, causing Malfoy to look at him. 'Why are you being so...understanding?'

Malfoy smiled and shrugged. 'I guess I realised that if you're in Slytherin I should treat you like a housemate and, although this may be a shock to you, I treat my housemates very well,'

Harry smiled with him. 'Thanks.'

'No problem, Potter.'

'Harry'

Malfoy looked at him. 'What?'

'Call me Harry.'

'...'

'Please.'

'Ok...Harry?'

'Thank you.'

Malfoy seemed to be debating over something. Finally, he said, 'then calls me Draco.'

To this Harry nodded. Draco walked out the room.

Harry looked around the dormitory. The colours didn't look as bad now. He then headed down to breakfast and Ron and Hermione never entered his mind.

AN. I know, it's short but I will update soon so there won't be long to wait.
