Chapter 5: Return to Hogwarts

Harry and Draco arrived fifteen minutes before the train was going to leave. Harry couldnt help but think what the year ahead would bring, already Draco came and apologized to him. Then Harry thought, he never told me why he came, Harry just shrugged it away. Draco said he was going to go meet his friends, and said that he would see him at school. Harry found an empty compartment and sat down, he couldnt wait till Ginny got here.

The Weasleys were running late like always, they arrived with five minutes left before the train would leave. They ran to the barrier, when they got there they didnt bother stopping, they just ran through. Ron, Hermione, and Ginny, collected there hugs and kisses and got on the train. Ginny went to find Harry, and Ron and Hermione went to look for Dean and Seamus.

Harry was looking out the window when his compartment door opened, and Ginny walked in, smiling at him. He stood up and kissed her, "Oh I missed you so much!" Harry said.

"I missed you too," said Ginny. Not taking her eyes of him.

They sat down and she told him that Mr. Weasley had talked to Ron and Hermione. Harry said he didnt care, but she could look into his eyes and see he really did miss them.

Ron and Hermione couldnt find a empty compartment, so they tried to find Ginny and Harry. Ron didnt like the idea but he wanted to sit down so he didnt argue. They had to go to the prefects meeting first though, when left they found Harry and Ginny. They walked in the compartment, and Hermione said "Oh grow up! Both of you!"

"Your one to speak!" said Harry.

"I know Harry, but we need to talk things through. I miss being your friend!" said Hermione.

"Ok sit down," said Harry

Hermione smiled and sat down, Ron just sat down. They were silent for a few moments when Ron said "Harry... I am sorry for the things I said," Ron said looking down at the floor.

"Me too," Hermione said

They sat there, wondering what Harry was thinking. Harry opened his mouth then shut again, Ginny looked at him and he caught her eyes. He thought what am I putting her through. "I'm sorry too," Harry said.

"Harry we were going to tell you we were dating," said Hermione. Thinking about that night that almost ruined there friendship, she remebered how Harry just kissed her. She couldnt help to think that Harry was a great kisser.

"Oh Harry, the weirdest thing happened to us at the prefect meeting," said Ron.

"What?" Harry asked.

"Draco said he was sorry about everthing he ever said to us!" Hermione piped in.

The rest of the train ride went great, they talked and laughed, and Harry was glad they were friends again. He hoped the train would never stop, they were having so much fun.

Draco was beaten up badly, he couldnt walk, he saw his friends and they beat him to a bloody pulp. Draco knew why, him leaving behind his dad and befriending Harry, also the fact that he wasnt pure blooded didnt help either. People walked by but they didnt care, Malfoy didnt have many friends, that was mostly his and his fathers work.

Ginny said she was going to go to the ladies room and that she would be back. She went out the door and was heading to the bathroom when she saw someone lying limp on the floor.

"Are you ok?" Ginny asked.

The body moved, "No..." he just laid his head down.

"Draco, is that you?" she said.

"Yes..." the voice said fading away.

She helped him up and walked him back to where Harry Ron, and Hermione was. They gasped when Ginny and Draco stumbled in.

"What happened?" asked Harry.

"I dont know," replied Ginny.

"Hermione, you know a little bit about healing, can you help?" Harry said.

"Sure," she said.

She healed him the best she could. She was drained afterwards though, so Ron went to get her some chocolate. They remembered Professor Lupin's words about chocolate.

Draco sat up and they asked him what happened.

"I saw them on the platform and they acted like my friends, but when we got on the train and in a compartment. They started hitting me, and when I fell they kept kicking me, then they threw me out and left me there," Draco said.

"Why?" Harry asked. But he knew the answer already.

"I think it is because I am your friend now, but theres something else," Draco said.

Harry left it at that for now, he wasnt going to push him any further.

When Ron returned Draco told them what happened, they looked at him sad and shocked. The rest of the train ride went on in silence.

There spirits lifted at the sight of Hogwarts, they were back. They were excited about finding out what this year would bring them.
