I'M BACK AT THIS STORY! Aight, we gonna finish this badboy in a month. THAT'S RIGHT! A MONTH! My original plan was to base it around the moon cycle, but Ima power through this. I have all the hate sex scenes set up in my head, but we gotta get there first, so we're going to do A LOT of filler, but it's important to the story line. This is the chapter for tonight! I'm working the state fair again, so don't expect a chapter tomorrow, unless inspiration strikes me. But I'll write in my journal during work any ideas that come into my head! Without further ado, I present the long awaited Chapter 3! BTW, I am looking for a Beta. If you are one, please HMU!
Chapter 3
Boarding the hogwarts express was not an easy task for draco.
Narcissa stood behind him with her hand on his shoulder.
"Write to me every week, and please talk to professor Lupin if anything goes wrong. Take your potion each morning." She whispered in his ear.
"Yes mother." Draco said softly.
"Son, I'm proud of the man you're becoming. I'm so sorry this happened to you. It genuinely is all my fault. Now, don't let this bring you down. You still are a Malfoy, and that is a name that people fear and respect. Own it. It's yours." Lucius said.
Draco nodded, "Yes father."
Draco took a deep breath and escaped from his mother's hand. He pushed through the crowd and turned on his 'holier than thou' face. People began to move out of his way as he made his way to the train.
Boarding it, he turned and gave his parents a final wave goodbye.
He made his way to his carriage where Blaise, Pansy, Crabbe, and Goyle would be waiting for him. Draco realized that he must have had a really angry expression on his face as everyone backed away from him and pressed themselves against the doorways to avoid him.
The only person who didn't move away from him was Hermione Granger. She was talking to the Weaselette. The Weaslette's face paled as Draco stood behind Granger.
"Move it mudblood." Draco hissed.
Hermione turned and looked at him. She didn't pale and she didn't cower.
"Piss off Malfoy." she replied.
He pushed past her, ignoring her comment.
"Wanker!" Hermione shouted after him.
"Bloody hell, Hermione Granger swearing. I never thought I would see the day." the Weaslette chuckled behind him.
"Malfoy is an except to the rule." Granger replied to the redheaded terror.
Draco rolled his eyes and continued on his path.
When he reached his carriage, he threw himself into a seat between Zabine and Parkinson.
He groaned.
"Good summer, Draco?" Pansy asked innocently.
"Yeah, we went to Greece. Had an incident with a Chimera, it's nothing though." Draco said casually, the lie rolling off his tongue easily.
"You seem troubled. Is everything all right Draco?" Pansy said, placing her hand on his forehead, "DO we need to see Madam Pompfry when we get to school?"
"No, I'm fine. I just had a runin with the mudblood and the weaslette. They get more annoying with each passing year."
"That Granger though, if it weren't for those teeth she'd be a pretty bird. Still be a mudblood, but a good fuck and chuck." Zabini laughed.
Draco chuckled, Pansy scoffed, and Crabbe and Goyle gave a huff.
"You're not wrong. You would think she would fix them with magic. Stupid mudblood, doesn't deserve magic." Draco replied.
The next few hours were spent catching up with each other about the summer. Then it changed when the train came to a rolling stop.
Draco looked out the window, watching it frost up. "We're not at hogwarts yet. Why is the train stopping?"
Then it felt like all the happiness went out of the world as a cloaked black figure stopped at their compartment and looked through the door. Though he couldn't see the eyes, it was staring directly as Draco before moving on.
Draco shuddered and Pansy placed her hand on his forehead again, "Draco, you've gone pale. Are you okay?"
"Is it me, or did it feel like all the happiness went out of the world?" Blaise asked softly.
Draco nodded, "They're dementors. My father told me about them. After the war, he was sent to Askaban for a few days before claiming _ curse. The cursed things suck all the happiness out of the world."
"Why was it looking at you mate?" Crabbe said. For once the blob of blubber had been observant.
Draco sighed and pulled down his cloak to show the scar. "The incident with the Chimera in greece was a major incident."
Pansy gasped, Blaise cringed, and crabbe and goyle stared with mild surprise.
"It was probably sucking on my misery. My question is why they're on the train."
"Probably looking for Sirius Black." Blaise replied.
"What about the man? Isn't he in askaban?"
"No, he escaped. While you were in Greece, it was all over the news. Everyone is looking for him, even the muggles." Pansy said.
"Really? Out to finally kill Potter? Good for him." Draco chuckled.
Just then a second year slytherin burst into their compartment.
"Sorry to disturb, but Potter just collapsed when he met the dementor." He laughed.
The entire compartment bursted into laughter.
"You're joshing me right?" Draco cried.
"Nope! Went down like a ton of bricks!" The second year howled. "The new DADA professor had to cast a patronus charm, whatever the hell that is, to scare away the dementor. The guy's name is remus lupin."
Draco stopped laughing, the compartment following him, "Remus Lupin is riding the train?"
The second year nodded, "Yeah. Do you know him?"
"A bit, he's an okay guy. Gryffindor, but an okay guy. Probably not going to like his class, because I don't want to defend myself from the dark arts." Draco chuckled darkly.
Pansy rolled her eyes and the second year excused himself to pass on the word that Potter had fainted.
The train returned to full speed a few minutes later and Draco prepared to face the school year with full force.
He stepped onto the platform and took a deep breath.
It was going to be a long year.
Sorry for any mistakes, like I said I need a beta. I just love this story idea so much that I refuse to let it die! It is officially going to be Dramione, so if you don't like Dramione, this is probably not the story for you. If you do like them together, then welcome to the right place! I PROMISE I will finish this in a month, and not wait until 2020 to write it! I'm off to bed! I got plans with IRL friends tomorrow! :P
