The next morning Draco and Pansy were making fun of Harry fainting on the train last night. We were having breakfast and we had our new schedules. Draco and I choose to take the same classes even though he didn't want to take care of magical creatures he did just like I didn't want to take divination because the teacher was insane.

Our first class was divination which was far away so I forced Draco to hurry up so we could find it. We had to go up a long spiral staircase. Then the trapdoor opened for us to get up to the tower. It was a weird class room with 20 or so small circular tables.

Professor Trelawney who was the divination professor was in the corner scaring some people when she started talking then she came out she was a very skinny woman with large glasses. She started talking and I understood why everyone called her crazy she was talking about her inner eye.

She said "we will be reading tea cups this semester and next we will go to the crystal ball Unfortunately, classes will be disrupted in February by a nasty bout of flu. And around Easter, one of our number will leave us forever."

Everyone looked nervous when she said this. She told us to pick partners and drink then our partner would check the cup to see our future. Something was going on with Harry's cup so Trelawney looked at it and screamed "my dear you have the grim."

Harry looked confused. The professor said "the giant, spectral dog that haunts churchyards! My dear boy, that is an omen- the worst omen- of death!" Everyone gathered around him except the Slytherins. We all knew she had no idea what she was talking about. She said we should end the lesson today and we all left.

We finished our next class that was nowhere near as interesting as divination. After that we went to lunch. Draco had his arm around my waist while we were eating. He kissed my cheek as he finished eating waiting on me so we could go to our next class.

Our next class was care of magical creatures. We walked down the sloping lawn to Hagrid's hut where we were meeting before class. When the whole class was there we walked along the trees for a few minutes. We stopped In front of fence. Hagrid told us to open our books.

"How?" Draco asked a bit rudely.

"Hasn' anyone bin able ter open their books?" Hargis asked and even I didnt know how to open it. "Yeh've got ter stroke 'em" He ran his hand along the spine of the book and it opened.

"I thought they were funny." Said Hagrid sheepishly.

"Oh, tremendously funny! Really witty, giving us books that try to rip our hands off!" Draco said.

"Shut up Malfoy" Harry said.

"Draco relax. The books are cute." I said to him.

He rolled his eyes but just nodded as he wrapped his arm around my waist.

When Hagrid went to get the creature Draco said "God, this place is going to the dogs, that oaf teaching classes, my father'll have a fit when I tell him."

I hit him in the chest. "don't be an ass Draco."

Hagrid came back with hippogriffs on the other side of the fence. They are half horse half bird. He asked if anyone wanted to come nearer no one else seemed to want to but I did. He tells us we have to bow to them. Which I do it follows me. Then after it bowed back Hagrid told me it was OK to pet it but go slow.

I carefully walked toward it Draco was ignoring the lesson until I was getting close to it because he was worried about me. I petted its head and it was so soft. Hagrid told me I could ride it if I wanted. I said yes as he put me on its back. It flew off we went over the lake and quidditch field. It was nice almost like a broom but softer.

When he brought me back down he asked for anyone else and Harry said he would. He bowed then the hippogriff bowed and Harry rode him. He looked terrified. Everyone seemed more comfortable and now they all wanted to pet them.

Draco did something I wasn't even paying attention because I was playing with another hippigriff. Draco did something to upset Buckbeak which is the one Harry rode on an it had swiped at him.

Draco went to the hospital wing and u was so mad I couldn't go see him or eat. So I just stayed in my room that night. He apparently asked about me is what crabe had said as they went to see him and saw his father coming in as they left. I knew his father would definitely do something either with Hagrid or Buckbeak. I had to go talk to Draco tomorrow and figure out what Mr. Malfoy planned to do.

So when I went to see him he was all bandaged up saying how much it still hurt he was talking to Crabbe, Goyle, and Pansy. I opened the curtain so he could see me and he quickly told them to leave.

"What did you tell Lucius?" I asked him.

"Just what happened that that animal attacked me."

"Draco Malfoy if anything happens to the hippogriff or Hagrid because you were being daft I will not even talk to you the rest of the year."

Hw looked nervous and looked away from me "I can't force my dad to say or do anything. You know he will be upset and seek restoration."

"I'm just telling you Draco if you told him to do something against either of them you should send him a letter and tell him not to."

He grabs my hand and nods. "I'm sorry I shouldn't have done it but I don't want the oaf as a teacher. I thought we were going to have a normal teacher. Forgive me? Please."

"Maybe." I kissed his cheek.

"Why haven't you come to see me until now?"

"You were dumb out there and I was upset because you don't care about anyone but yourself."

"You know that's not true Hunter I care more about you then myself."

"You being daft doesn't show it. I will see you tomorrow when you get out of here. Goodnight Draco."

He kissed me gently and let me hand go as I left.
