When two worlds collide.

Fresh Start?

*Skip to after the summer*

"Step up, step up! We got fainting fancies, nosebleed nougats!" Fred and George yell as they walk through their shop. "And just in for time for school." Fred grins. "Puking Pastilles!" George adds.

"Hey! You guys have done amazing with the shop." I smile as I walk over to them.

"Thanks Alex!" Fred puts his arm around me as we walk around. "Nothing could've been possible if it wasn't for you!" George puts his arm around me too. "Yeah! That generous donation of your winnings for the tournament." Fred sighs. "We love you!" They kiss my cheeks.

They've always been brother figures to me.

I laugh and watch as they go to a first year.

"Into the cauldron, Handsome!" Fred smiles.

I walk over to Ginny and Hermione.

"Love potions?" Hermione scoffs.

"Hello, ladies!" Fred and George smile.

"Love potions, eh?" George winks.

"Yeah. They really do work. Then again the way we heard you, sis... You're doing just fine on your own!" Fred teases.

"Meaning?" Ginny shoots a sharp glare at them, she seemed to be pretty offended.

"Are you not currently dating Dean Thomas?" George huffs.

"It's none of your business!" Ginny snaps.

"Im sure you were in it with Harry." I sigh.

She glares at me and I quickly walk away.

. . .

"Quibbler! Quibbler. He's lovely. They've been known to sing at Boxing Day, you know? Quibbler?" Luna smiles as we walk down the carriages.

"Oh, please. What's a Wrackspurt?" Pansy scoffs as she overhears us.

"Invisible creatures, they flow in your ears and make your brain go fuzzy. Quibbler!" Luna giggles as she sits down.

I go over to Draco and sit besides him. He puts his arm around me and kisses me, so I return the favour. Elizabeth glares at me and I just wink.

"We'll be at Hogwarts soon." Pansy gazed out the window.

"Hogwarts. What a pathetic excuse for a school. I think I pitched myself off the astronomy tower if  I had to continue for another 2 years." Draco scoffs.

"Draco!" I scold.

He's definitely acting weird.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Elizabeth gasps.

"Let's just say I don't think you'll see me wasting my time in Charms class next year." He mumbles and Blaise just snickers. "Amused, Blaise? Let's see just who's laughing in the end!" He spits.

"Calm down. Why are you so uneasy?" I sigh.

"He's sexually frustrated, he hasn't been able to fuck you all summer!" Theo yells from the carriage besides us.

"Shut up!" I scoff.

He groans, resting his forehead on my temple.

. . .

"Sorry I made you miss the carriages, by the way, Luna." Hermione sighs as I catch up with them.

"That's alright. It was like being with a friend." Luna laughs.

"Well, I am your friend, Luna!" Hermione smiles.

"We all are!" Ginny adds.

"That's nice." Luna sighs.

"Oh, about time. I've been looking all over for you. Right...Names?" Professor Flitwick sighs.

"Professor Flitwick, you know us for five years." I roll my eyes.

"No exceptions, Barnes." Flitwick growls.

"Who are those people?" Luna gazes at the adults walking in the distance.

"Aurors for security." Flitwick reassures.

"What's this cane here then?" Fred hums.

"It's not a cane, you cretin. It's a walking stick." Draco rolls his eyes.

"And what exactly will you be doing with all...be construed as an offensive weapon.." George gasps.

"It's alright, Mr. Filch. I can vouch for Mr. Malfoy." Snape yawns.

"Nice face, Potter!" Draco snickers.

I look at Draco in shock.

What's gotten into him.

"Would you like me to fix it for you? Personally, I think you look a bit more..devil may care this way but...It's up to you." Luna shrugs.

"Well, have you ever fixed a nose before?" Harry questions.

"No, but I've done several toes...and how different are they really?" She states.

"Um, okay, yeah. Give it a go." Harry nods.

"Episkey!" Luna exclaims.

"How do I look?" He smiles.

The spell worker and his nose seemed to be fixed.

"Exceptionally ordinary!" Luna giggles.

"Brilliant!" Harry smiles proudly.

"This is a fresh start!" Hermione inhales sharply.

"Fresh..fresh start?" I furrow my eyebrows.

"In addition to what happened last year." She frowns.

. . .

"What did I miss?" I questions as I sit down at my table.

"Sorting Hat says we ought to be brave and strong in these trouble times. Easy for it to say, though. It's a hat, isn't it?" Theo huffs.

"Very best of evenings to you all. Thanks. First off, let me introduce the newest member of our staff. Horace Slughorn. Professor Slughorn, I'm happy to say, has agreed to resume his old post...as Potions Master!" Dumbledore smiles, clapping. We all join in.

"Meanwhile, the post of Defense Against the Dark Arts...will be taken by Professor Snape!"

It's about bloody time too.

"As you know, each and every one of you were searched upon your arrival here tonight. And you have the right to know why. Once, there was a young man. Like you, sat in this very hall. Walked this castle's corridors. Slept under it's roof. You see, to all the world, a student like any other. His name: Tom Riddle. Today of course, is known all over the world by another name. Which is why as I stand, looking out upon you all tonight, I'm reminded of a sobering fact. Every day, every hour, this very minute, perhaps... dark forces attempt to penetrate this castle's walls. But in the end, that greatest weapon...is you. Just something to think about. Now off to bed, pip-pip!" He claps his hands.

"That was cheerful." Draco mumbles as we stand up.

He takes my hand and takes me to my room.

"Mmm, I missed you.." He smirks, kissing me.

"I missed you more." I chuckle as he lays me down and hovers over me.

His dogtags were hanging from his neck.

"You're so hot!" I kiss him, wrapping my legs around his waist.
