Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

We were in the carriage and I was minding my buissness admiring the greenland outside, I couldn't help but notice Draco staring at me from the corner of my eye. "what's wrong?" I said turning my head to look at him when he immediately looked away "nothing" he said, I smiled and looked back out the window.

A short while after the carriage stopped at the train station, I got myself out and the driver handed me and Draco our luggage, I noticed Draco didn't look at me the same way he did when he gave me the necklace, instead he looked at me like he used to when we hated eachother, I suppose I knew it wouldn't last. I picked up my luggage and walked over to the train station, I made sure no body was watching before going through the wall where the train to hogwarts was, soon after I was followed by Draco. "ah, it seems we have a bit of time" he said, I was confused so I turned to him "huh?"

"have you got a wand?" he'd ask me, I completely forgot about the wand, I shook my head and she sighed "your lucky we still have an hour before the train leaves" Draco grabbed my sleeve and dragged me over to where everyone gets their wands from, we walked in where an old looking guy turned to us, he looked suprise. "ah, Malfoy. Don't you already have a wand?" he'd ask, but Draco shook his head "I'm afraid I'm not here for me, it's for her" he pushed me out so the man could get a glimps of me "you seem familiar..." he'd say concentrating on me "she's my cousin" Draco coughed looking around, the man looked at Draco confused for a bit but then laughed "I suppose that must be why I recognise you!" he chuckled, he them went into the back of the shop and came back with a wand "Try this" he passed me the wand.

The wand was an oak colour, it was shaped more like a stick than a straight wand.

I took the wand and waved it to my suprise the papers on the desk flew off. "hm.." he thought for a moment and went back to the back of the store, this time he was gone for about 5 minutes, I turned to Draco who shrugged at me. A few moments after he returned with another wand, I took it gently.

This wand was dark oak, it had a white snake built onto it.

I waved the wand around to which it glowed, the man smiled at me and Draco seemed to be happy too. I smiled at the thought of having my own wand, "that wand seems to have a connection with you, miss" the man said nodding down at the wand "yes, I suppose it does" I admired the wand for a little while before looking back up again "Well, I suppose I best get going then, I still have to get an owl" I giggled a little then left with Draco, I put the wand in my bag.

After a while of searching we finally found the Owls, we entered the shop where an old lady looked at us, she clapped her hands and jogged slowly behind the counter "hello, young witch and wizard" she said, she looked at Draco and cheered "ah! I remember you! Your the guy who got attacked by the owls!" she laughed clapping her hands, I looked over at Draco to see him hiding his face in embarrassment. "Didn't know Mr. Malfoy could get embarrassed" I teasingly said then giggled, he blushed a little and looked away mumbling something. "right!" the women said lifting a finger "now, how may I help you" she said looking at me "uh, I'm looking for an owl?" I said looking at all the owls surrounding the room. "of course, of course!" the women opened the gate and revealed she was actually a dwarf, I looked at Draco who shrugged again. The elderly woman showed us to many owls bur I never felt a connection with them, the woman sighed and told us to follow her into another room full of many more owls, but instead these were the owls that most slytherins had.

Immediately one of the owls caught my eye. This owl was pure black, it's tail was white and had white circles around its eyes. It's eyes were green.

"this one.." I said making my way over to the bird "oh! That ones humbrade" the owl hopped onto my hand "I see it likes you, I think this owl belongs too you, child" she smiled at me.

I turned to Draco "how much time do we have left?" he pulled out his watch and looked at me "we have exactly half an hour, that's just the amount of time to get back to the train, we'll have to leave now if we don't want to miss it" he said putting his watch away, I smiled at the old woman who watched us leave. We managed to arrive back to the train on time.

"okay, stay close to me, I don't want you getting lost" he said. We were in the middle of the hallway of the train, next to us where the pods that the students sat in "okay" I agreed, draco nodded and started to walk, I followed him into a pod where there were two other people who appeared to be his friends "Draco!" a girl said smiling at him, I couldn't help but get a bit jealous. A guy stood up and hugged him, he appeared to have dark skin and dark hair, he was gorgeous. "yo, my guy!" he said pulling away "and who might this be, your new girlfriend?" he teased and looked me up and down "no.." Draco said sitting down. I sat down by the other guy but soon realised the other girl was staring at me, I gave her an awkward smile and tried to avoid eye contact. "hey draco..i missed you" she said getting closer to him, she started to play with his hair which made me uncomfortable. I smirked at a thought, oh hunny, I can play this game.

I turned to the guy next to me and got closer to him, a smiled at pulled out my hand "I'm Catalina, nice to meet you". He smiled back taking my hand and shaking it "I'm Blaise, the pleasures mine" he was a gentleman I must say, but I had to keep focused on what I'm supposed to be doing, I turned my eye to see Draco staring at us, but that other girl kept putting her hands allover him, I turned back to Blaise and stood up "we should probably leave these live birds alone, I'm not going to be the one getting in trouble for fucking on the train, feel free to come with me Blaise" I left the pod and found their was no other empty pods left, I turned around to go back to the other pod when I bumped into someone, a boy, the boy had dark brown hair and dark brown eyes, he wore circular glasses and appeared to have a scar shaped as a lightening bolt on his forehead "I'm sorry" I said taking a step back "I was to busy trying to look for a free pod I wasn't paying attention to what I was doing" I said rubbing the back of my neck. "it's okay" he said smiling at me "you can join me and my friends if you'd like?" he asked me, I smiled at him and nodded "sure!".

He led me into the pod where there was two other people, a girl who had brown wavy hair that was also extremely poofy, and a boy who had ginger hair "I forgot to ask you what your name was" the boy turned to me, I smiled again and had to think of a last name, cause I don't want anyone knowing who I was "Oh...im.." it took me a while but I played it off by chuckling a bit "I'm Catalina, Catalina Roberts" of course my last name wasn't Roberts, my last name was Riddle but that's just going to blow my cover. "nice to meet you" the girl stood up. She took her hand out "I'm Hermionie, Hermionie Granger." she said. I took her hand and took it, the ginger boy stood up awkwardly " bloody hell... Another girl" he'd say looking at me as if I was a ghost "ughh, that's Ron Weasly. You've probably heard of his family" Hermionie rolled her eyes, I nodded. Of course I've heard of his idiotic family. "and I'm Harry, Harry Potter" Harry smiled at me and I immediately realised what I've got myself into, but also this is an advantage for me, if I get close to them jow it's easier for me to bring them back to father.
