Chapter 3: Second Chances!
Dusk began settling in with its cold dark coat as Harry rode the bus back home that evening. A kind of tranquility blossomed all over him as he thought of the idea his friends had come up with before he left Hermione's apartment. Ron had pipped up that they should go all meet up next week and go to a club, away from work and the wizarding world. Just the three of them.
Now Harry had at first protested to this and said that he had a lot of work to do at the Auror's office at the Ministry, which was an excuse to keep his self-imposed isolation. He had no choice, however, than to accept the invitation when the brunette witch's eyes glowed darkly and her wand, clutched in her right hand, began to fizz and spark dangerously. He knew better than to say no. This was all just to get him into talking and interacting again; he knew it.
But it had been settled. They were all going to meet up at Hermione's apartment next week around 7:30 to go tranquility that now spread throughout Harry was that, in fact, he felt somewhat relieved. This gave him a second chance at being himself again! Maybe this upcoming week would prove to be worth it afterall. He sighed and sat back against the grey seat of the bus, comforted by what little warmth the bus provided.
Wind with its serated ice fingers clawed outside the bus windows as it rolled itself along the road next to the Thames. An old man sneezed into a handkerchief two seats away from Harry. He began to doze off in his seat; the ride home was still 20 minutes from done and there was a stop in the beginning of the business district that would come up soon.
Draco stood at the bus stop on the corner of Thames Avenue a quarter after ten, shivering in the blistering cold. A moon that paled compared to him stood sentinel over London, making Malfoy shiver even more as he stared at it. The bus ride would be a long one indeed. His studio would then welcome him with its sinister interior, but thankfully it was at this moment basking in heat against the cold this night with the four space heaters he had bought last week when he had come home one evening to find it unbearably chilly.
His thin arms dug deep in the pockets of his jeans. He had forgotten his coat at home, as it was 98 degrees earlier today. The days seemed to get only warmer as summer continued on relentlessly. Draco only became more prone to forgetting that the nights were terribly the opposite of the afternoons.
He sneezed. The sound of his bus was on its way, the blank headlights blinding him momentarily from down the street. Finally! He was going to get on the bus, go home, get inside his warm studio, and make some chamomile tea and forget about his thoughts from this evening...
There'd be no way he could ever have a second chance at repairing all that he damaged with Potter. Now way... He sighed as he stepped onto the dark bus and paid his fair. Malfoy sat down on a seat facing a dark haired boy in an overcoat that was sleeping with his head laying against the window...
