Chapter Four

"Well now you have to admit that while it may not have been a classic it was still good." Sirius was in the middle of a heated debate with Severus that the last three hours were not wasted on the film they had just watched while in London. Severus had another opinion on the matter.

"Sirius it was a complete and utter waste of time the cinematic drivel was not stimulating in anyway and I could have occupied my time in a much more productive way." At this comment Sirius gave an appreciative leer and was about to give a quick retort if he wasn't interrupted by Remus' laughing.

The laughing and argument was brought to a halt by Hedwig's screeching, who had woken from her nap when she was disturbed by the ruckus that had entered the house with the loud trio. Hedwig circled their heads once before landing on Remus' shoulder and depositing the letter in his outstretched hand before giving him an affectionate nip before taking off again and heading back home


"Goods above, how hard is it for a bloody driver to keep a carriage on the road, when we get back I'm going to order him to be demerited a week's worth of wages. Mother will wonder if I am human due to my appearance being various shades of purple due to the amount of bruises covering every inch of my body."

As Draco stopped for a breath he heard muffled giggling causing him to turn around, towards the sound of the disturbance. The injured young man was trying desperately to hide his amusement but was failing dismally. Draco found himself suddenly speechless; later he would admit that it was because someone was laughing at him, however the truth of the matter was that he was stunned into silence by the mystery man's sparkling green orbs and elfish features, the face that moments ago that seemed so angelic had transformed into smoothing more sprite or imp-like, still otherworldly just, not as innocent.


CHANGE IN POV

Harry tried, he really did but this man sounded so much like his old rival Draco Malfoy that he could not contain his laughter. It amused him to no end that someone could be that conceited and narcissistic, especially because there was not one iota of a bruise all over this person's body. Once again he was glad for his magic, a wand less wordless translation spell when he became conscious was providing him with endless entertainment, even though his wand was still concealed on his person Harry found it much more advantageous to continue to remain inconspicuous ... which ended the moment he couldn't contain his giggles.



Once recovering from his laughing fit Harry felt it prudent to introduce himself slowly he tried to reposition himself so that he was sitting but fate decided to have some fun and caused the carriage to hit a bump in the road at the same moment that Harry tried to move sending him sprawling over the makeshift bed and causing further giggles to erupt from his mouth.

As all this occurred the Malfoy look alike sat quietly studying him. Harry would not be surprised if he was wondering if he had lost his mind. Not wanting to seem crazy Harry sat up carefully and turned to face the stranger. Harry thought he might be able to gain more information from his narcissist friend but first came introductions.

"Hello, my name is Harrison or Harry for short. What's yours?" the other man took on an expression of speechlessness. Had he just said something wrong? Time began to pass and Harry became more nervous with each silent passing second but after thirty seconds that seemed like thirty eons to Harry the mystery stranger said eight words that caused Harry to lose all capacity to form coherent speech of thought.

"I'm Draco Lucius Aurelius, pleasure to meet you."


CHANGE IN POV

Draco found it strange that the young man was laughing so hard but was shaken from his musings when his angel/imp started to speak his voice showed his curiosity and the deep timbre quality was gentle and soothing which Draco found relaxing; the nature of the young man's voice had him so captivated it took some time for the question being asked to actually register and once it did it shocked him to the core.

Had this person grown up under a rock for the past twenty three years, or did the knock to his head cause him to lose all of his memories? Realising that he had not answered teh question Draco informed his companion,

"I'm Draco Lucius Aurelius, pleasure to meet you." Draco realised that this man... Harry... must know something about him because he reacted strongly to his name. Eager to learn more about the mysterious Harry Draco started to talk in his slow casual drawl in an attempt to make Harry open up and answer some of his many queries.

"So... Harry, do you remember anything, or know how you came to be in the middle of the road?"


"Um, not really, no". Short and simple and not very revealing, an entirely safe answer that gave not much away. Harry tried to stay in control but this Draco reminded him so much of the one from his own time, it made it difficult to construct an answer and the question that was asked was quite simple, they were bound to get harder. Before Draco could ask another question Harry decided to elaborate on his previous answer in the hopes he could steer the conversation in a direction that would not expose his mission or the fact that he lived thousands of years in the future.

"I don't remember much, just that I was walking along the road before feeling a sharp pain in my head. I stumbled and lost my footing, I began to fall... and then darkness, that's all I remember."

"Oh... and where were you going? What do you do for a living? Do you normally travel alone? Do you..." Draco was once again interrupted by laughter and was beginning to think there was something wrong with Harry, he wouldn't stop laughing.

"What do you find so amusing that you interrupt me when I speak.Hmmm?" and Harry with his eyes glittering like emeralds with repressed humour and laughter responded with

"How are you ever going to get any of your questions answered if you do not allow the other person time to reply, you act like an interrogator" a huge smile spread across Harry's face and before Draco began an argument Harry jumped in, this time answering all of Draco's questions

"I was just travelling to the next town, I'm a scholar looking for new things to learn in exchange for teaching what I already know and yes normally I travel alone."

It didn't take long for Draco to ask more questions and demand answers from Harry and for the rest of the trip Harry and Draco began a tentative friendship learning more about the other as the carriage made its way back to Astonia.


AN: thanks to all those that reviewed it's amazing, I've also had many hits which is amazing at least even if people don't review their reading it :-)

Oh

Henriette- yes it will be complicated and yes he would have to be in the same spot but I won't tell you what happens coz it would ruin the story

Fire Dolphin- Sorry if I didn't make it clear there was no need for a trunk the only items harry took were his wand and an empty journal to write his findings anything else would be too modern and out of place.
