Chapter 3
It
was nearing Christmas, the last day of class before a well deserved break. Snape was still keeping his eye on Harry, it
was driving him nuts. He wanted to know
why but wasn’t about to ask him. Draco
and Harry were eating lunch in the Great Hall when Draco’s owl flew in and
landed in front of them. Draco took the
letter and the owl left. It was from his
father. Quickly Draco opened it and
began to read.
Draco,
I
have no problem with your relationship.
In fact I think it’s good. I want
you to keep an eye on him, watch out for him, understand? Teach him and if he wants to learn the Dark
Arts, which I have a feeling he will eventually, teach him what you know. I look forward to seeing you for the
Christmas Holiday and I have a present for Mr. Potter. I will give it to you while you are here so
you can deliver it. Keep me apprised of
what’s going on.
Lucius
Draco
nodded and folded the letter back up, “That went better then I expected.” He
said to himself.
“What’d
it say?” Harry asked, looking over at his friend.
“Nothing
much, just that he was looking forward to me coming home. What are you doing for the holiday?”
Harry
sighed, “Staying here. No way in hell am I going back to those Muggles until I have to.”
Draco
nodded in agreement, “I’ll talk to my father and find out if you can spend the
summer holiday with us.”
Harry’s
face brightened, “Really?”
Draco
half smiled, “Yes. I’ll talk to him.”
“Talk
to him about what Malfoy?” Someone said from behind them.
The
two Slytherin boys looked over their shoulder to see a group of three red
heads, two twins and Ron. Draco rolled
his eyes, “None of your business Weasley.” He sneered.
Ron
looked at Harry, “What happened to you?
Why are you acting like this? You
were different on the train…” He said, trailing off.
“I
have true friends now, you’re nothing.
You just wanted to be around me because of the fame. That’s not who I am. I’m not so low to have to use my prestige to
get friends. Draco looked past that the
first time I met him, he didn’t care.
Besides, he’s been more of a help to me then you ever could have.” Harry
growled, narrowing his green eyes at the red head, “So why don’t you scamper
away like a good little Gryffindor and leave me alone. I have no use for you.”
“You’ll
regret taking him as a friend Harry. His
family is bad, they’re dark. Worked for you-know-who.” Ron said quickly.
Harry
rolled his eyes, “I won’t regret it but you’ll regret saying things like that
about my friend. Unlike you cowardly
lions we Slytherin stick together. We’re
family and we look after each other.” He didn’t move from his seat, wasn’t
about to start a fight.
Ron
snapped and as he went to punch Harry for his words Snape walked in. Ron swung and Harry ducked causing the red
head to miss completely, “Fifty points from Gryffindor for starting a fight and
detention Mr. Weasley. You will come to
my office tonight at six.” He looked at Harry and Draco for a moment before
walking away.
“I’ll
get you Potter.” Ron growled before walking away, his twin brothers stayed
though.
They
looked from one snake to the other, “That’s no way to make friends.” One of
them said.
“You’ve
just made a house your enemy.”
Harry
shrugged, “Good riddance. I don’t want
friends like you or him anyway.” He turned to Draco, “Drac, I’m not hungry,
let’s go.” Together they left the Great Hall, not wanting to deal with the red
heads anymore, “Why do I have a feeling that they’re going to be here for
break?”
Draco
shrugged, “We can get him back after break, or you can do something before
that.” He said with a malicious smile.
Harry
chuckled, “I’ll do something then we can do something when you get back, more
fun that way.”
Draco
smiled, “I have to get going, I’ll be back after
break.” He said with a smile, “Don’t get in trouble while I’m gone.” He
laughed.
“Oh,
I won’t.”
“Good.”
He gave him a quick hug after making sure no one was around, “Remember, watch
out for yourself.” He said before walking away.
Harry
blinked, “Bye Drac.”
Harry
returned to the common room, looking forward to the holiday but not to being
without his friend. With a sigh he
flopped down on one of the chairs, running a hand through his hair. He got along well with the other Slytherins
but all of them were gone for the holiday.
Harry hoped that he would eventually have somewhere to go but right now
he didn’t. With a smile he began to plot
what he would do to the Weasleys. The
days passed by in a blur until the Christmas.
Harry had already plotted what he was going to do and the plan was already
in action. With a malicious smile he
waited outside the Gryffindor common room, waiting to hear the sounds that
would mark his plan coming to fruition.
A scream came from inside and he laughed. He had given them a box filled with rats and
spiders; the best part was that it was completely untraceable. With a skip in his step he went back to his
room to open his own presents. Slowly he
began to open the gifts at the foot of his bed.
One had a cloak made out of a shinny material; he smiled as he noticed
what it did, making him invisible. A
note was with it, stating that it was his father’s. With a smile he put it aside before picking
up the next package, it was from Draco.
He smiled as he read the letter attached.
Harry,
Sorry
I couldn’t be there with you or that you couldn’t come with me. I asked my father about this summer and he
said that you could so at least we have that to look forward to. I hope this fits you and I hope that you’ll
wear it. I had it made just for you.
Draco
With
a smile Harry opened the beautifully wrapped package. Inside was a robe of black with silver
edging. A green and silver snake was on
the back. Harry smiled and slipped it
on. It fit perfectly and was made of
soft silk. He purred, loving the way it
felt against his skin. Of course because
it wasn’t a school robe he wouldn’t be able to wear it here but when he went to
Draco’s over the summer he could and when he was in his room and the common
room he could. He smiled and buttoned it
up, running his hands over the soft silk.
“Thanks
Draco.” He whispered with a smile.
He
had a feeling that he could wear the robe while he was on break but wasn’t
going to because he didn’t want it to get ruined. Carefully he took it off and folded it,
putting it in his trunk. He smiled to
himself before heading for the Great Hall to see how his present had done and
to get some food. As he sauntered into
the Great Hall he noticed that Ron was seated that the Gryffindor table looking
visibly shaken, his brothers were there as well. The minute they saw him their eyes narrowed
and the eldest one among them, Percy, stood up and walked over to him.
“What
did you think you were doing Potter?
That was completely uncalled for.” He said, looking down at Harry.
Harry
looked at him innocently, “Oh? And what
is it that you think I did? I can assure
you that I didn’t do a thing.”
“I’m
positive that you’re the one who sent that present to my brother. As a prefect I think it’s my duty to inform
you that what you’re doing is wrong and you should cease.” With that he
returned to the table.
Harry
raised an eyebrow before sitting at his own table, debating about what to do
with Ron. If he tried to make friends
with him it would make it easier to betray him.
A sadistic smile spread across Harry’s face as he thought about it. Quickly he put up a mask of regret and made
his way over to the table. Ron scowled,
looking up at him.
“What
do you want Potter?” He growled, looking hurt.
Harry
chewed on his lip, doing a wonderful job of acting regretful, “I’m sorry Ron.”
He offered his hand, “Will you forgive me for being a git?”
Ron
blinked at the sudden change, but being the trusting Gryffindor that he was he
took his hand; “I suppose I can forgive you.” He said softly.
Harry
smiled and sat down with them, “So, what’s up?”
The
twins, Fred and George, looked at each other then at Harry, “So Harry, why the
sudden change of heart?” One of them asked.
He
shrugged, “I’m not sure exactly. I just
thought it was time to let go of this childish fight.” He said but inside he
was laughing, this was perfect, he would have to write to Draco.
They
ate breakfast together, just talking. No
mention of either house was made since neither would give up secrets. Finally Harry got up and said his goodbyes
before walking to his common room, laughing to himself. He would enjoy this. Quickly he sat down and took out quill, ink,
and parchment, ready to write to Draco.
Draco,
I
had an idea which I’ve already begun implementing. It will be so much easier to get back at the
Weasleys if we befriend them. I know I
don’t have their trust right now but I know I have the beginnings of a
‘relationship’. They’re so trusting
and easy to manipulate. I sent them a
package this morning, a present, which upset them greatly but when I apologized
they accepted. I’m not going to let my
guard down. I look forward to the end of
holiday. Thank you so much for the
present, I love it. I’m excited about
staying with you this summer as well, not having to go back to those
Muggles. Tell me what you think of my
idea about befriending them.
Harry
He
chuckled to himself as he walked to the owlery to
send the letter to Draco. Once finished
he decided to call it a night and returned to his room.
