Lucius read his letter again. Draco wants to stay with the Dursleys. Neville is trying to stay too.
Lucius did something he never thought he would do, knock on Augusta's door. "I know we aren't friends, but I have some concerns about Draco."
"I do about Neville too. Dudley proves the magic theory and I don't want him to lose the limited magic he has."
"Yeah, that is what I'm afraid of too with my son, so I propose a compromise." Lucius sighed, "We ask them to stay here as we shouldn't give away where Harry is hiding, and it is on neutral grounds according to the war."
"That would be best."
Dudley and Draco took in the sights of Augusta's house. "Cool." Dudley eyed the house elves. "By the way, please thank your parents for keeping Potter's safety in mind." Draco was happy that his parents were coming around.
Okay, they still didn't trust Dudley, but baby steps were needed. "Let's check out the garden!" Neville dragged the two boys back there.
Meanwhile Vernon and Petunia were in the car with Harry. "Are you sure, boy?" Vernon asked Harry, who Petunia noticed looked like he was holding back tears. "I just want to go home."
