As Cold Hearted As He Is~ D.M

Chapter 19. Platform 9 3/4

Oakley Potter

We had arrived at The Platform a few minutes ago. Were all just standing in the compartment waiting for everyone to make it off just so we can have room to get off ourselves.

"This is gonna take five years at this rate." Blaise complained as he gathered his things off the bench.

"Right" Theo muttered.

I watched as Harry, Ron, and Hermione existed the train. Harry awkwardly spinning in circles trying to locate me. Little does he know I was still standing on the train waiting. Once he realized I wasn't off yet, he stood next to a pillar and dramatically propped his leg on said pillar.

Most of the students have existed the train by now. Leaving us five to exist alone in peace. We all finished picking up our belongings and in a one by one line made our way off the train.

"Promise to write me?" Daphne begged. Her voice sounding very pleading. I would feel bad if I told her no.

"Of course I will Daph" I said as I pulled her into a longing hug. I squeezed her tightly as I probably wouldn't see her all throughout the summer.

"I love you Oakley, stay safe" She muttered as she let go of my hug and made her way over to her parents.

I looked back over to Draco and Blaise, as the two were telling each other there goodbyes as well. Draco was so pale but he was so put together at the same time. It was kinda like he was a perfect mess. Not too messy, not to perfect. And that's what Draco was.

"See ya around" Blaise said as he gave me a short-lived side hug. Then he marched his way over to his parents.

I looked around The Platform. Many familiar faces met with there family's. Most of them having smiles painted on there face. Oh how nice it would be too have a perfect family. A family that loves and cares about you. But I guess I just wasn't lucky enough in the game of life.

"You better write me, Potter" Draco laughed with a slight smile poking at the corner of his mouth.

"Oh I will, Malfoy" I mimicked.

"See ya later alligator" He said as he slowly started walking away from me.

"Not in awhile Crocodile" I responded.

After our little unique goodbye was said, I started my way towards Harry. Dragging my luggage along with me. Too an awfully terrible summer, here I come.

"Ready for torture?" Harry said as I walked upon him. We always had this small bond, even if we don't talk. Reason being that we both share the same home life. Which means we go through the same struggles durning the Summer. And during the non-school year, we're all each has really.

I sighed a deep heavy type of sigh. "We have no other option so yeah." I huffed.

"We can go to the burrow for part of the summer if your up for it." He suggests. He cracks a smile just trying to break the tension between the awkwardness.

"I doubt they would want me there. With being a Slytherin and all.." I trailed off.

"Oakley, Your my sister. If they take me in, then they'll take you in just the same." He reassured. We have our differences and our arguments. But after all he's still my brother. And thats mostly what matters.

"If you say so." I finished. I pulled some floo powder out of my pocket and handed Harry a handful.

"Make sure you focus." He protested. He's always been somewhat worry-full about me, he thinks he's the 'big brother' even though we're twins.

"Your so cautious Harry" I muttered under my breath just loud enough for him too hear me. He's always been that way really. Despite my attempts to convince him that I don't need watched over. Hell I still think he watches me at school, just to make sure I don't get myself into trouble he says.

We both tossed it at our feet, clutching onto our luggage to make sure it isn't left behind. The thick smoke surrounding us to emerge us into what feels like apparition. It kinda feels funny if I'm being honest, it's like your being sucked into nothing.

And to the terrible home of the Dursley's, here we come. Wish us luck. I'm gonna be counting down the days until we get back to Hogwarts.
