It was the end of summer, second year was creeping up on me. Mother's hearing in June went good, they proclaimed her not guilty of any crimes with dark magic. She was though, so was Draco's mum. It would be kept quiet, for now anyway. I haven't seen Draco since the night under the oak tree at Hogwarts, nor have I heard about him. I didn't know where we stood at this point, but I guess I will find out soon enough.

It was a cool summer morning in August, when I just remembered about the supply list for second year.

"Mother, we haven't gotten my supplies for school yet," I told her, watching what I say carefully. Ever since my father got taken to Azkaban, shes been much moodier and stern.

"Oh, I almost forgot. We should go today, your going to school in a couple days anyway," She licked her finger and turned a page in her newspaper.

"I'll get my cloak," I said rushing up the seven flights of stairs. I always loved going to Diagon Alley, especially when we got to go to Knockturn Alley. Mother and Father used to spend a lot of time in Borgin and Burkes, I loved that shop.

Mother and I used flu powder to get to Diagon Alley. We went into Flourish and Blotts to get my magic books, when Gilderoy Lockhart was talking to a large crowd of people. All the girls were going wild, but to be honest I couldn't stand the man.

"I forbid you to get your books signed by that man. Grab the books and we are getting straight out of here," Mother said shooting him a nasty glare.

I ran over to the shelf where the books were, when I saw Draco and Narcissa enter the shop. My heart stopped.

"Oh look who it is, Draco. Go say hello to Selene," Narcissa said, clearly faking her smile.

Draco strode over and smiled, "Hello, Selene," He had a big smile on his face, it made me so happy. I never saw him actually smile at anyone but me before.

"Hi," I said returning the smile. "I didn't think we were aloud to talk to each other," I said remembering what our fathers had told us last Christmas.

"Our fathers forbid it, mother likes you. Its just- I dunno. It doesn't matter anyway," He said glancing at the books I was holding. "Please don't tell me your obsessed with the looney man over there too," He look annoyed.

"Ha Draco, I can't stand them. My mum forbid me to even get my books signed by him," He chuckled.

"Good," Suddenly his expression turned cold. "Potter," He muttered.

"I say we greet him," I said with an evil smirk on my face, Draco with a similar one.

We strode over to him, finding Arthur Weasley, Harry, and the red headed boy Ron, and the girl Ginny. "What do ya got there, Potter?" Draco spat.

"Get outta here, Malfoy," Harry glared at him. "Who's she?" He said glancing at me.

"Whats it matter, huh?" Malfoy knocked the books out of Harry's hands.

"ENOUGH!" Mr. Weasley roared.

"Look, the master of all blood traders," Draco said eyeballing Mr. Weasley.

Mr. Weasley's expression turned cold, "Draco, leave them alone," Mr. Weasley tried to say calmly.

Harry was staring at me, his expression was weird, he didn't look like he hated me, nor did he look like he liked me. I just stood there, not really knowing what to do. "Draco, lets get outta here, I don't need to be associating with any blood traders," I said glaring at all of them.

"For now, Potter," Draco said with a look of disgust on his face. Harry and Draco never got along, Draco bullied Harry all of first year.

"Selene! Why were you talking to them?" Mother looked absolutely repulsed.

"We weren't being nice that's for damn sure," It was the truth after all.

"Well we're leaving. Goodbye, Narcissa, Draco," Mother said vaguely smiling.

Draco came close to my ear, pretending to look at a book behind me, "You look beautiful," He whispered.

I smiled, at him, I could feel myself blushing, "Goodbye, Draco."

I sat with Eric on the Hogwarts Express, I was dreading second year. Eric talked nonstop the entire train ride, I eventually snapped at him and he switched compartments, so I sat alone. I liked it better that way anyways. I started to look through some spell books, when there was a knock at the compartment door, It was Harry Potter. My first instinct was to grab my wand, I pointed it at Harry.

"I just want to talk, put the wand down," Harry said, his hands in surrender.

"Alright, what do you want? You're a blood trader, I shouldn't talk to you," I said glaring at him.

"Then why are you?" Harry joked.

I continued to give him a nasty look, "Can't find a good enough reason I guess. Now get on with it, what the bloody hell do you want Potter?"

"First off, are you dating Malfoy?" Harry had a look of pure hatred on his face.

"Its Draco. He has a name you know," I put my feet up on the seat across from me. "But no, just.. friends."

"Malfoy-"

"DRACO!" I corrected him.

"Right- well I just was asking because hes mean to everyone. I mean it, everyone. His friends, his ex girlfriend Pansy, the professors, but not you. Its bloody weird."

"What is your point exactly?" He was frustrating me.

"I want to figure out if I can trust you, if you're close with Malfoy I clearly can't," He looked serious, it was weird.

I thought about all the stuff he did to me last year, and decided this could be good payback, "You can trust me, get on with it."

"No, thats all I need to know," He started to get up.

"What is?"

"That I can trust you. You might be able to help me this year with certain things and I wanted to know if I could confine in you to do so," He was fully standing up now, so I did too.

"What things Potter? Are we friends now?" I was confused and frustrated.

"I guess you can say that, bye, Selene," He left the compartment.

What the bloody hell did Harry Potter want from me?
