"But we can't keep her in the dark forever. She have the right to now!" He said. "We will let her know that she's Harry's sister... daughter of James and Lily Potter. But as of right now... we need to keep it a secret. If He-who-shall-now-be-name knows about her. She's going to be his target as well" Professor McGonagall said. My eyes widened at what she just said.

Wait... what??

-Unexpected-

Y/N P.O.V

I turn around and leave the shop. I can't bear to hear anymore. So the parents that I've been wondering my whole life... turns out to be Harry's parents and Harry is my brother. First, I learnt that all the life I've grown used to in Narnia turns out to be fake and now this? This is too much for me.

I keep running from there, letting my feet take me wherever it takes me. Tears streams down both of my cheeks like waterfall. It's so painful... it hurts so much.

I stop by the lake, which is frozen because of the cold weather. I sit down on top of a rock as I will my spell to disappear, letting my body becomes visible once again. I hunch my body forward as I start to cry even more.

"Are you okay?" I heard someone said behind me. I turn my head to see the person I least expected. I let out a sigh and wipe my tears. I turn my head away from him. "What are you doing here? Are you just going to make fun of me like you did with all of my friends?" I asked.

"No... I may be a bad person who tend to bully a lot. But I still have heart and won't go too far. Especially to someone who's already been crying..." he said. I scoff at his comment. "I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not crying..." I said, not facing him.

He walks towards me and kneels down in front of me. "Yeah right... then why do you have tear stained face?" He said. I turn my head away from him. I feel cold fingers on my chin, turning my head to look at him.

"What's wrong, Y/N?" He asked. I blinked at him. It shocks me that he calls me by my first name. Along with the fact that I can see the worry in his eyes. I let out a sigh and remove his hand away from my face. "I don't feel like talking about it..." I said. He lets out a soft hum. "Alright. If you don't wanna talk. I'm not going to force you to..." he said. He moves to sit next to me.

"Why are you even here?" I asked. "I just feel like it. I only want to talk a walk. Then I stumble upon you..." he said, shrugging. I raise an eyebrow. He turns to me. "What? You think I'm stalking you? I didn't even see you come here..." he said. I shake my head and turn to look into the distance.

"It's hard to believe..." I mumbled. "What?" He said, turning to look at me in confusion. "It's hard for me to believe. To process the reality I have to accept... I am so used to the life I have in Narnia. I thought that place was where I was born. But turns out it wasn't. I was born here... in this island. Everything I've grown used to... turns out isn't my life. Right now all I want is to go back to Narnia and forget all of these ever happened. But I can't... I feel like I'm tied to this place by an invisible force. Now I have to learn to adapt in a totally unfamiliar surrounding...." I said. I blink back the tears, not wanting to start crying.

I feel an arm wrapping around my shoulder. "Just let it out. You'll feel better..." he said. "How would you know?" I said. "Just trust me" he said, in a soft voice. I let out a sigh and lean my head on his shoulder as I start to cry once again. He lift his hand and place it on my head, caressing my hair softly. He keeps quiet as he waits for me to calm down.

I pull away from him after I finally calmed down. I scoot away from him, making his arm fell off from my shoulder. He looks hurt by my action. It could be just my imagination.

I wipe the remaining tears and turns to look at him with a smile. "Thank you for comforting me. I really did not expect that from you... you're not as bad as I thought you were" I said. He shrugs his shoulder at my comment. "It was nothing..." he said. "No it isn't! You could have mocked me like you did. But you did the opposite instead. Thank you... Draco..." I said. His eyes widened when he hear me calling him by his first name.

"You... just" he stuttered out. "What?" I asked. "You called me by my first name..." he said. "You did too a while ago? So?" I said. He shakes his head as he lets out a soft chuckle.

"Does that means we're friends?" He asked. "Huh? You wanna be my friend?" I said, surprised. He looks down and starts fiddling with his finger. "I've always wanted to..." he said. "But?" I asked. "Well... you're always hanging out with the trio..." he said. "I don't see the problem with that..." I said. He stays silent after that as he looks upset about something.

He lets out a sigh. "You don't understand. It's... my family thing..." he said. "Hm... let me guess. Your family value blood status and they pressure you to do the same?" I asked. The trio never really told me what happened with the Malfoy bloodline. But the way Draco said "family thing"... I can already guess what's actually going on.

He nods his head, without saying anything. "Well... regardless what your parents told you... it's really your choice to do what you want. You're a grown up, Draco. You're not a kid anymore. Which means you can't let anyone tell you what to do or what not to do..." I said. He lets out a hum and nod his head.

"Yeah, I guess you're right. But it'll be hard to change because I'm used to the way I'm living right now..." he said. "Yeah... I can relate" I said, letting out a light giggle. He chuckles along with me.
