14 13. Not so bad after all..

Your POV

"You know, I always thought Hogwarts end of year exams were frightful", Hermione said as we walked outside the castle, " but I found them rather enjoyable". I actually did good in my exams.

Oh, speak for yourself", Ron said and I looked at Harry who's clutching his scar.

"Alright there, Harry?", I asked him concerned.

My scar..... It keeps burning..", he said.

"It's happened before right?", Hermione asked.

"Yeah the night in the Forbidden Forest when we saw you-know-who", I replied.

"This time it's different,Y/n. It hurts even more", Harry said in pain.

"Maybe you should go see the nurse", suggests Ron.

"No I think it's a warning, it means.... Danger's coming", he removed his hand from his forehead and looked down at Hagrid who's playing flute, "don't you think it's a bit odd that what Hagrid wants more than anything is a dragon and a stranger turns up and just happens to have one?". I thought for a moment..yeah I did kinda thought that was suspicious.. I forgot to thought about it due to the final exams...

"I mean", he continued, " how many people goes around with dragon eggs in their pockets. Why didn't I see this before?!", He said and ran down toward Hagrid and we followed him.

"Hagrid", Harry started, "Who gave you the dragon egg? What does he look like?"

" I dunno.. never saw his face, he had his hood up", Hagrid said... But they must have had some sort of conversation....

"This strange creature though, you and him must have talked.." Harry asked as though he had read my mind.

"Well he wanted ter know wha' sorta creature I looked afte'. I told him, after Fluffy, a dragon's gonna be no problem", Hagrid replied.

"Did he seemed to be interested in Fluffy?", I asked him and Harry looked at me as though he was going to ask him that.

"Well, o' course, he is interested in Fluffy! How ofte' do ya come across a three headed dog, even if yer in trade. But I told him, the trick with any beast is ter know how ter calm them, take Fluffy fer example, jus' play him some music and he heads straigh' ter sleep".

Then we realized that the person who asked Hagrid about Fluffy will be stealing the stone.

"We've got to tell Dumbledore", Harry said and we ran up to he castle and ran inside Professor McGonagall's empty classroom. She was correcting something and we rushed to her.

"We need to see Professor Dumbledore immediately!", Harry said breathlessly.

Professor McGonagall looked up at us from her work and said, " I am afraid Professor Dumbledore is not here, he received an urgent letter form the Ministry of Magic and left immediately for London".

"But this is important", I said.

"It's about he Philosopher's Stone", Harry added.

"Someone's going to steal it", Harry and I said together.

Professor McGonagall's eyes widened hearing the Philosopher's Stone and looked shocked, "I don't know how you found out about the stone but I assure you, it's perfectly safe. Now, if you would, please go back to your dormitories, quietly". We exited the room.

"What are we supposed to do now?", I asked.

"We have to stop Snape from stealing the stone, but how?"

"Good afternoon...", someone said from behind us, we turned to see Professor Snape," now what would four young Gryffindors, such as yourselves, be doing inside... On a day like this..", he said looking at each one of us.

"We... We were... Jus...", Hermione began.

"Ought to be careful..", Snape said looking at her then glaring at Harry, "up to something", then glared at me and stormed away.

"Now what are we going to do?!", Ron asked.

"We'll go down trough that trapped door, tonight", Harry said. Then we went to the Gryffindor tower, said the password and sat in the common room.

"So how are we gonna go?", Ron asked.

"We'll use my invisibility cloak", Harry said.

"So we'll leave after curfew. That way everyone will be asleep, right?", I said.

"If we get caught again we'll lose so many house points, again", Hermione said.

"We won't get caught, trust me Hermione." I told her.

"Oi, Y/n! Malfoy's calling you", Neville said from behind, "Please go Y/n, he said if I managed to sent you to him, him let me alone", he plead.

"Sure... Where did he call me?", I asked him.

"Oh, at the courtyard. Thank you Y/n!", He said and left. Then I stood up

"You're really going to meet him, Y/n?", Ron asked.

"Well yeah. After all he's my cousin. Plus, he did promise Neville that he'll let him alone. I have so bye. I'll be back soon", I said and left the Gryffindor tower. I've reached the courtyard and I looked around for a certain blonde haired boy.

"Hey Y/n!", Someone said from behind and you looked to see Draco, "you actually came".

"Of course I came. What is it that you wanted to see me about?", I asked him straight to the point.

"Oh.. nothing actually.. just wanted to ask you that you did know that we're related right?", He asked.

"Yeah I did. Is that all?"

"Yes... Actually no.. look Y/n my dad told everything about your mom. He said she died along with you...he thought until the sorting ceremony. I wrote a letter to my dad asking him who you are and how are we related"

"Then....?"

"He said that you're his half sister's daughter. He also mentioned that you're special. I said that he regretted being bad towards aunt Eerika"

"Is that why he's been missing my whole life as a family.. my death with my mom?"

"Yeah. We actually have a portrait of my Aunt at Malfoy's Manor. So he asked me to ask you to spend this summer at Malfoys Manor... So?"

"Well... I can't accept that... He wasn't there when I was young...the Weasleys were there.... So they practically are my family and I've got to ask them plus I've got a Godfather too... Although we never met but I need he's permission too..."

"The Weasleys... Alright... I'll tell my dad about it", he said in disgust. To which I just smiled...oh Y/n, now's the perfect time to asked about your dad....

By the way... D-Did your dad happened to mention anything about my dad?"

Draco thought for a minute, "No he didn't... He did say that he's a filthy blood traitor.. he said that he didn't carry his family's traditions... That's all"

"Oh... Alright... So is that all?..", I said disappointed. Why is everyone avoiding the topic of my father? Why aren't they telling me about him?.... What did you do dad that made everyone avoid sharing anything about you to me?...

"Actually then main reason to call you here is to ask you... C-Can we be f-friends?....",Draco asked nervously.

I smiled at him and said, "we are friends..but you have to understand if I loose my temper on you when you... You know say something offensive to me or my friends".

"Well then that's good. I hate your friends but I don't hate you..", he said smiling at me. Draco is not so bad after all.....
