"Hmm…" I said, trying to look sympathetic, but really still quite confused.
He looked at me the same way he looked at Ron. He looked at me evily.
"What are your parents?"
"Hmmm?"
"Are they…do they…Use magic?"
"Funny story…True story. Yes, they are wizards. But see, they didn't tell me shit until I got that letter from Dumbledore. Apperantly they thought I was a squib and didn't want me to feel bad. Anyway, yeah…They went to some north-american school that closed down. Why?"
He smiled a broad smile, and said "Oh, just wondering…Maybe my parents know each other?"
"Doubt it, but it would be cool"
The train came to an abrupt halt and I fell to the other side of the carridge before standing up quickly. Butterflies were in my stomach as I realized this was it.
I went to grab my luggage, but Draco informed me that it was unneeded, and I was grateful he was there to help me. We walked out, my shoulder brushing his arm occasionally. He guided me to the horseless buggies and helped me into one. I could hear someone shouting for first years, and then my own name was called.
"EEE I should go…"
"Nah it's just Hagrid. They'll understand, you were confused and didn't hear him or something. No worries."
Five minutes later, when it felt like we should be leaving, Harry and Ron jumped into the carridge, exclaiming "Mandy! There you are!" Before they realized Malfoy was sitting across from me. They glared at him and each had one foot in the carriage as we started moving, and they were struggling.
"Help them!" I exclaimed, and was thankful to find Draco had his wand out, pointing straight at them as he muttered an incantation.
They fell onto the ground ten feet away from the carriage.
"Don't mix with their kind."
I looked at him and almost slapped him for bossing me around, yet at the same time felt tense at arguing with someone who had just injured two able young men. Slowly I began to feel regretful for being in the carridge by myself with him, resenting him and thinking him a bully. A popular person at this school would actually hurt someone else…
