A New Obsession

The next day Harry, Ron, and Hermione came and we spent a lot of time with them, and also filed them in with what happened with the boy next door. We spent the next week goofing off and having the most fun I've had since I was last in Hogwarts. They had all been impressed with my new look, and thought that I should keep it.

I woke up early on September the 1st. Excitement ran through me, as I realized that today was the day everyone would be impressed by me. I felt confident for the first time in ages.

I walked down to get something to eat, and found everyone there, luggage by the door, and already eating. "Am I late?" I asked as I sat down, and grabbed some food to put on my plate.

"Oh no, dear!" Mrs. Weasley told me. But just to be sure, I practically inhaled my food, and ran upstairs to put on my Juicy sweats, grabbed my trunks and Lila, and headed back downstairs to the Ministry cars Mr. Weasley got for us. I met Rissy, Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny by the door, and we went to the cars at 10:30, to go to King's Cross Station. It was then that I finally realized, that I haven't seen Draco Malfoy all morning, and his room was surprisingly quiet.

On the way to the station in the surprisingly roomy car, we talked about Quidditch and how many points Snape will take from us this year. We arrived at the station and loaded our trunks and pets on to a trolley, and went to platforms 9 and 10, and went through in pairs of 2.

Right away, I felt Marisa nudge me and I looked to where she was pointing. She saw Draco Malfoy trying to squeeze next to Karly. "I have a feeling that's going to be you someday," Marisa told me. I didn't even hear her, because what I was looking at gave me butterflies in my stomach. Andrew Thomas was walking towards us.

"Hey girls. Megan, is that you? You look great!" Andrew told me.

I was speechless, until Mione came up next to me. She, besides Marisa, is the only one who knows that I like Andrew. "Oh, um, eh, thanks!" I sputtered.

"Listen, I have to go say bye to my parents, but we'll talk later, okay?" He said.

"Um, yeah. Okay!" I was still in utter shock. What was Andrew doing talking to me? Wasn't he supposed to be over by Karly?

"Megan, he likes you!" Hermione told me. I must be going deaf, because I didn't hear her either. Where Andrew had disappeared through the crowd of parents saying goodbye, I saw Draco Malfoy trying to catch glimpses of the new me. Maybe what Marisa said was right, but I was hoping not.

"Get on the train, dears! You're going to be late!" Mrs. Weasley told us.

We hurried on the train, and waved to the Weasley's as the train gathered more speed. Rissy, Harry, and I went to go find an empty compartment, while Ginny went to go find her friends from her year, and Ron and Hermione went to the prefects compartment. When we finally found an empty compartment near the end, Harry closed the door and turned to me.

"Meg, I saw Malfoy making glimpses of you, and I'm afraid that he's going to toy with you again. I don't want you to get hurt." he said to me.

"I'm sorry Harry, but don't you think I'm a little smarter than that?" I asked him.

"I know, but remember last time," he said. Of course, I remembered all to well.

"Don't get your panties in a bunch Harry!" Marisa butted in. "Besides, I have a feeling Meg's got a new boy under her belt."

Harry looked at us mischievously, but it took all the strength I had not to laugh out loud. But I was put out of my misery, when Ron and Mione came in looking like they themselves just had a laugh.

"Malfoy just got hit by that Karly girl. Looks like Malfoys not so lucky anymore!" Ron told us.

While the whole compartment cracked up, I could picture Malfoys face. Draco Malfoy, the Slytherin Sex God, getting rejected? Ha!

The laughing ceased though, when the door to our compartment slid open, and in walked the God himself, wearing a face of deep scarlet and rage. "Weasel and Mudblood! If you ever tell anyone what you saw, you'll have ever regret being born!" He roared at them.

"Is that a threat?" Ron jeered at him.

But Malfoy didn't seem to hear him. He was looking directly at me with a new look of confusion. "Eh, do I know you?" he asked me, with words of desire.

"Get the hell out of here Malfoy," I told him with a new courage I just discovered.

"Stupid git," Ron said.

"Uh, yeah. Let's get our robes on, shall we? I bet we're nearly there." I said, to change the conversation. I quickly turned my head as I saw Harry give me an I-told-you-so look, and Marisa eyeing me suspiciously.

But what Megan did not know, is that when Draco Malfoy walked out of that compartment in utter shock, he vowed to make Megan his, she is his new obsession.
