Waiting to get home

I know this is short but it really is just an interim chapter that must be done. Thanks to my reviewers and well, to anyone who appreciated the story really!

ElementalDiety :Note that the arm in arm thing was in Knockturn Alley, not Diagon, so it wasn’t really a public show to anyone who would care.

Feron: Harry will start learning more soon, Hedwig is not particularly happy but she does it for Harry and I don’t know why no one picked up the cupboard reference previously


Chapter Three


Hermoine and Ron walked through the barrier together, not knowing that Harry was so close to them that he could hear their conversation. Their eyes flicked over him questioning but not realizing who it was they were really looking at. After all, Harry had grown to a respectable six foot and with his oy moy makeover he did look entirely different. They were curious only in the sense that he was a new student, but he certainly didn’t look like the type to be a Gryffindor so he was unimportant in their eyes. That was one of the reasons that Harry wanted to be resorted, Gryffindor could not handle anything different and their views were always so blinded to the world, seeing only that which they wanted to see. Harry was like this before but now that had all changed. He inwardly thanked Tom for helping him out of the pit he had thrown himself into.

“I wonder where Harry is?” Hermione mused.

“Who cares, “Ron replied with a hint of anger in his voice. “It’s obvious he doesn’t, otherwise he would have written to us this summer. Sirius dying has probably messed with his head.”

“He has been a bit odd over the last year or so, changed a bit too much. I don’t think we even know him any more Ron.”

“Yeah well, that’s his problem not mine. As long as I have you I don’t think I really care about him. He’s a bit stuck up about himself anyway.” With that the two started snogging on the platform, forgetting their friend easily.

Harry was angry with what they had said at fist and then he realized that he truly didn’t care all that much, certainly not enough to cry over it. Ron had always been jealous of him and having a sidekick was not what he wanted. Hermione lorded her intelligence over everyone else pulling them back from their true potential. People don’t even bother answering the teacher’s questions because they know she will do it. And her magic wasn’t even that strong anyway, reading books won’t help her be a good witch if she doesn’t have the power to use it. Without those two in his life he would probably be a better person.

Two minutes left and he watched as Ron and Hermione get on board the train. Just as he lost sight of them a voice at his ear startled him out of his thoughts.

“Forget them, they are no longer your concern.” Draco’s voice whispered. “Now come along my new friend, let us go surprise the rest of the Slytherins.”

With that the two waltzed onto the train and immediately went to the frmostmost carriage, barring that of the prefect’s compartment. Draco walked in and immediately the other four occupants moved so that he could sit by the window.

“Potter” Pansy said, recognizing him quickly, “what the hell are you doing here? Come to gloat some more?”

Draco held up his hand and spoke softy but firmly to her” I invited him here, Pansy dear, so be respectful to our guests, alright?” His tone may have been cordial, but there was a slight hint of maliceit, it, making sure she knew he meant what he was saying.

“Now that that is sorted, sit down Harry.” Crabbe and Goyle moved immediately to accommodate him. “I believe some introductions are in order.” He pointed to the people in the carriage in order, “I believe you know Crabbe and Goyle, this is Pansy Parkinson of course and over here is Blaise Zabini” he said as he pointed to a beautiful girl with dark brown hair and blue eyes. Harry watched her appraisingly and the other occupants noticed that she did so as well. A small smile formed on Draco’s face as he realized the possibilities that could arise.

“So how was your summer?” Harry askveryveryone, hoping to start a conversation that would not offend any of Draco’s friends right from the start. It worked and soon everyone was chatting away happily about their holidays and what they were going to do at school this year. He had a really great time, he even talked to Pansy some, happy when she showed him something called concealer and covered up his scar with it. To get rid of the scar, even for a short time, was special to Harry and he thanked her profusely. She gave him her bottle telling him not to worry about it as she had much more.

When the train arrived at Hogwarts the doubts in Harry’s mind came back. As he looked up at the castle from afar he wondered what would happen when he went into Dumbledores office. After some time petting one of the Thestrals the carriages were underway, leading him to his new life.
