Over the course of two months Leona became friends with everyone, especially Harry, Ron, Hermione and Ginny. There were still two weeks before school started. While the others had been able to go out and buy their school supplies, Leona had to stay stuck inside the house. Of course she would always fight about this but would always lose.

The five of them sat at the table as Leona ranted on about how she was being caged up like animal.

"There haven't been anymore attacks, so why can't I go outside. I'm going to be driven insane if I am kept in this house. I really appreciate what everyone has done for me, but come on, I need to breathe." Leona crossed her arms over her chest and slouched down into the chair.

"Well if that's how you feel Leona, then I have some very good news for you," Dumbledore said as he stepped into the room, "You are going to be coming with me and will be taking up temporary residence at Hogwarts till the school year begins. Then you will be joined by your fellow class mates."

Leona sat up with a smile on her face, "Really?"

Dumbledore nodded.

"You mean we have to put up with her during the school year now too?" asked Ron.

"Oh shut it Ron," Leona said as she headed up to her room to pack.

She didn't have many things. After the attack she had been reluctant to go back to the house to gather anything, everyone understood why. She had given Mrs. Weasly a list of things she needed and where they were in her room. A few things she had to go back there herself she realized and so after she gathered some confidence, Dumbledore took her back. It had been hard but she didn't break down like many had expected her too. Crying to Leona was a weakness, one she could never show.

"Do you think she will meet us here or at the school?" asked Hermione while her, Ron, Harry, and Ginny stood at Platform 9 ¾.

"I think she is already here," said Harry and he pointed up the platform a ways. Leona walked towards them already in her school uniform. A few of the guys shot her glances as she passed them, but she completely ignored them.

Hermione looked at Harry and Ron. Both of them were staring at her, Hermione rolled her eyes.

When Leona saw her friends she ran towards them. She grabbed Ginny into a huge embrace. Ginny didn't know what to do. Leona then did the same to Hermione, Ron, and Harry. When it was Harry's turn his face started to change to a crimson red. Leona didn't seem to notice.

"I can't believe how much I missed you guys," she said and shoved Harry.

"Why are we so hyper?" asked Hermione.

Leona looked at her and started to swing her hands back and forth. Every time they came in front of her she would clap them together, "Lots of caffeine."

"Well who do we have here?" asked a smooth voice from behind Leona.

"Malfoy, "Ron said in a lowered voice.

Leona stopped swinging her arms. She put on a blank face so now one would notice how she truly felt. On the outside she looked like nothing was affecting her, but on the inside it was the complete opposite. Her blood started to pump with adrenaline and she got a terrible urge to run.

Taking a deep breath she turned around.

"Leona!" Draco couldn't believe his eyes. He had a look of shock on his face and a slight smile.

"Hi Draco," Leona said and put her hands into her back pockets to hide them, they were shaking really badly.

"I'm gonna go and sit with Collin," Ginny said and she got onto the train.

"We should get on too," Harry said.

"Please don't tell me that you are hanging out with these losers," Draco pointed towards Harry, Ron, and Hermione, "I thought you were better then that."

Leona heard Harry and Ron move forward and she quickly turned. They both had their wands out and pointed at Draco. Leona grabbed her own from her pocket and said "Expelliarmus!" Harry and Ron's wand flew out of their hands and Leona caught them.

"Hey, what you do that for?" whined Ron.

"Must we act like two year olds?" Leona replied.

Draco laughed from behind her then whispered into her ear, "See you at school."

A chill swept down Leona's spine as she heard Draco walk off. She handed Ron and Harry their wands back and got onto the train.
