Harry pov

July 30st 11pm. It's been my tuition to stay up to midnight for my birthday. I used to even break out of cubbered and watch the stars until midnight.
The stars are so pretty. All the little dots in the sky. Some big, some small. Even a few colored plants in there. When I was little I used to read books about space in the school library. Never thought I could be an astronaut but I loved learning about them.
Even in the darkest places where no one can hear you, there's still beauty. A light in the darkest of places.
As I'm staring off at the sky I see a small light move around. I brush it off as a helicopter but it starts getting bigger and bigger. Then I see a wizard with a broom attached to the light. I stand up straight and open my window with excitement thinking it's draco. He came. He actually came. I knew Draco would come but that doesn't take away from how happy I am to see him.

"Finally I made it. That flight took forever. I've never flown so long. " Draco tiredly say slumping over on his broom

" It's just going to take as long flying back" I say with a little giggle

" I knnnnow don't remind me. I would suggest resting but I want get out of dirty muggle Town as soon as possible". Draco being dramatic as ever. He has never seen the dirty part of muggle towns, or towns in general

"And how are we supposed to get out of here. I have my broom what about all my stuff. Wait how's hegwed is she ok did she make it there alright" I asked quickly and panicked. I haven't heard from her in two weeks. I'm glad she did what I asked of her but I also spent two weeks thinking about the possibility that she never made it to Malfoy manor. Or any other crazy worry brain theories

" Yes yes yes she made it to my manor. My mother is currently spoiling her. Thinking you were under feeding her. And not giving her enough attention. Expect a scolding from her about that"

" Ya I'll talk about that later" not wanting to tell draco how awful my uncle is

" Oh I almost forgot" he reaches into his pocket" here" pulls out a small purse.

I look at him confused " draco I'm not a girl u know. That's a pretty lame birthday gift"

" No, I have your gifts at my house. They're much better than this. What do you take me for? This is a chammed purse that can hold any amount of stuff and stretch to almost any size. It's how wizards travel".

I take the purse in my hands and look skeptical of his clams. I know magic can do some amazing things but this purse is barely bigger than my hands. I snape open the purse and reach my hand inside and accidently slip my hole arm in " bloody hell you weren't kidding"

" I told you. Now let's go. I want to get out of this dump as soon as possible." Draco says, tapping on his broom. Draco has no form of patients. If it weren't for us making a game in the history of magic he would fail. When we caught the other sleeping he had to wake the other up without the professor noticing. I'd be lying if he didn't have to wake me alot too.

I stretched the purse and it's like a big mouth that ate my trunk. Opening wide and then when it had my trunk it shrank back down to small. I look at the purse amazed. Checking back with Draco if that really happened.

" I don't know why you're surprised you've lived in the magical world for how long. We can charm idioms to do almost anything we want. If we can think of it, it can be done". I giggle at this. I can't even believe after all the time I've spent in the magical world, magic still amazes me; like it's the first time. A part of me hopes that never changes. I grab the rest of my things and grab my broom.

"Come on, let's go. I won't to go back home"

" Hold your horses I'm coming" I get on my broom and zoom off not giving draco a warning " race you" I say yelling behind me"

" Hay no fair u jerk" he zips after me

" Me noooooo, I just want to test what that new broom can do and besides you wouldn't stop complaining I was going slow and now I'm going fast. Which do u want."

" You could have warned me about a race you gilt and sorry to disappoint I can't give it my all right now. You have to wait for that race. Where I will of course wipe the floor with you."

" Really because u seem to be going pretty slow. Aww is the great malfoy need me to slow down and rest" I say with a smirk on my face.

" No I do not" he says as he zips past me. love u malfoy but you played right into my hands. Sorry your just too easy to rilel up.

Before I know it his zipped past me and I can barley see him anymore. Fuck I don't know how to get to the manor. I probably shouldn't have played a fight I couldn't win but I didn't expect the broom to be so fast.

" Wait I don't know where your manor is. Dracoooo" I fly in his direction trying to keep up. I'm giving it my all but it's barely able to keep up. I can't imagine flying at his full capacity.

" Aww dose potter need me to slow down"
" No you gilt I can keep up. But bloody hell your broom is fast"
" I know right. I'll definitely make the slytherins team with this"
" Ya but don't go trying to go after my potion. I'll wipe the floor with you"
" Na I'm more of a chaser anyway. You if u happen to not be able to play I won't say no to playing yours".
" O yes I can see it now draco malfoy has caught the snitch. Slytherin wins. The crowd goes wild awwwwww" I say while moving my hands.
" Just because you get the snitch doesn't mean the game is won. If the other team has scored more points then it doesn't matter. That's why chasers are more important"
" Ya you're right. I couldn't deal with the consent price every time I made a shot."
" That's why it be me and u just up in the sky with no worry in the world but a little golden bird"
" I mean that's if no one tries jinxing my broom again"
" O merlin can u go one year without someone trying to kill me"
" I sure hope so" I really really do. I would give anything to have just one quite boring year.

As we fly over London I look down. The city is fine during the day but at night with all the lights out, it's utterly beautiful.
" The magical world is pretty in all but the muggle world isn't that bad"

" No way the muggle world is so boring" he says rolling his eyes

" I mean have you seen the cities?"  I wave my hand down at the town.

" Why bother it's not important anyway"

" I mean we go do down there every year to go to hogwarts"

" And if I spent any more time there I'd lose it"

" Come on just look at it"

" Why?" he looks at me very confused. " Why do you care so much"

" Because yes there are alot of amazing things in the magical world but the muggles has some cool stuff to"

" I beg to differ" he says looking away slightly annoyed

" Just one look please"

" Fine only because I know you won't shut up for the rest of the flight" Draco looks down and his eyes grow wide. He must have been looking for aldest over a minute.

" Pretty isn't it. It's one of the only things that I miss about the muggle world. It can be quite annoying that The magical world is suck in the 16 century.

He looks back forward again " it's pretty magical world is still better"

" That's all I wanted" we spent the rest of the time just flying. O for the love of merlin I missed this so much. The wind in my air. Completely ruining my hair and cold air. Considering it's summer bloody hell I needed this. No more gardens, no more cooking, cleaning, and yelling. I can't wait to go home.
