The end of the school year has already come and Greta felt sad. She had to leave everything behind for two whole months! She became a big emotional mess that day because she didn't want to leave her friends behind.

"Don't worry, Greta, we'll come and visit you this summer," Hermione promised. "We wouldn't want to abandon you."

"Yeah, we should all schedule a time to meet at my house," Ron suggested. "We'll have so much fun!"

"That sounds brilliant," Harry agreed. "I can't wait till then!"

"I'll have to ask my parents first," Greta sniffled. "But that does sound really fun."

"Even if we can't meet up, we can still write to each other," Hermione added. "Plus, we'll see everyone again in two months."

"Ok," Greta mumbled.

She wasn't as sad about leaving Hermione, Harry, and Ron. She knew she would see them over the break. She was more sad about leaving Draco. His drastic change of heart made Greta feel proud and happy, and she couldn't bear to spend the summer without him. Greta wondered if she was ever going to meet up with him. Her parents had no idea who Draco was and his parents wouldn't want to associate with a half-blood witch.

"All students are required to meet up at the train station. Please collect your belongings and head over there immediately," Professor McGonagall announced.

Greta gathered her packed bags and cat carrier before walking to the train station.

"Darn it, I forgot my bags!" Ron cursed. "I'll be right back. Meet you on the train?"

"Sure," Greta smiled.

"Eh, I'll just go with you," Hermione offered. "I feel like it's gonna take you a while to find your things."

"I'll come," Harry chimed in.

"I'll save us some seats," Greta said.

As soon as Harry, Ron, and Hermione had left, Greta went to go look for Draco. She had to find him! After a few minutes of searching, Greta heard a familiar voice call her name.

"Draco!" Greta squeaked. She ran up to him and hugged him as hard as she could, fresh tears streaming down her face. "I'm gonna miss you so much."

"I will too," Draco agreed.

"Will we be able to meet up this summer?" Greta looked into Draco's eyes pleadingly.

"I bet we'll figure something out," Draco said. "But until then, I'll still write to you."

"I don't know what I'll do without you," Greta admitted. "I know it's only for two months, but I can't help but feeling sad about leaving."

"Same here," Draco smiled. Suddenly, the train whistled, signaling that it was going to depart in a few minutes. "You remember that ferret you kissed?"

"Yeah, why?"

"That ferret was me."

Without warning, Draco pulled Greta closer to him and smacked his lips into hers, giving her a tender kiss.

As soon as he pulled away, Draco's entire face was red as a tomato and he stammered, "S-see you next year! I-I'll write to you as soon as I can!" He dashed away.

Greta blushed furiously as she stood in silence, processing what had just happened.

Draco Malfoy had kissed her.

She couldn't believe that that had happened. She never thought that he liked her that way. She squealed with joy and covered her blushing face.

"Hekissedmehekissedme! Omigoshomigoshomigosh!" she rambled excitedly. "I can't believe that happened! He… he just kissed me. That was my first kiss!!"
