I've returned from the past

Chapter 5

Hadrian woke up slowly to Hedwig chirping- half naked and sighed, not wanting to leave. He rolls over into his pillow again and took another breath. Because he had to- 

Someone knocks on his door, "Potter it's time to get up. I won't be doing this again." Severus. Maybe not much had changed then- actually Severus probably would have doused him in cold water so much better. 

He calls out, "I'll be out in a minute." He rolls over again and spots Hedwig before he finally slid out of bed with a deep sigh. 

His Hogwarts robes were accio'd and he changed swiftly. Draco was waiting for him outside and gives him a smile. 

"Feeling better?" 

"Did I look terrible?" He asks in surprise and Draco only gives him a smirk. 

"Just a bit." Shaking his head, he runs a hand through his black hair and then over his face before straightening his robes. They walk through the common room and receive more than a few stares. It's probably because Draco and Hadrian were two sides of the same coin. 

One with pale skin, white hair and pale blue-grey eyes and Hadrian with his black hair, green eyes and slightly tanned skin. 

Their gaits however were the same, their manner of looking around almost the same. 

After all he'd learnt most of the pureblood etiquette and habits from Draco so it's hardly surprising that they'd sync up, even unconsciously. 

Blaise, Theo and the other link up behind them as they walk to the Great Hall that was alive. Gods it was so alive with people that were dead. He looks into eyes of people he'd watched die at his feet and moved to the Slytherin table, not without casting a glance but found no Hermione Granger and one very different looking Weasley who craned his head to look for him. 

He was tall and lanky but he'd groomed his hair back, carried himself with a bit more purpose. 

"That's the Heir of the Weasley family," Draco says, looking a bit irritated but not outright calling them Blood Traitors. 

How much had the rejection of Harry Potter affected Draco in the first run? 

"Heir? Last time I checked the Weasley family had elder siblings," he muses, sitting at the table and Zabini sat on Draco's right, Hadrian on his left and Theodore on Hadrians left while the girls and Crabbe and Goyle sat opposite them. 

Draco bows his head, "He does. However the family saw Percy Weasleys obsession with the Ministry as him saying that was priority to him above all else so they essentially disinherited him. Bill and Charlie Weasley had no interest in the position and the Twins are already keyed in to be the Lords of the Prewett Family, as they're twins. Which means Ronald is the Heir to the Weasley Family Fortune." 

"How did they make this fortune?" He asks Draco, instead of showing his surprise that they had any at all. 

"They regained their titles in the first place, instead of being Blood Traitors. Their wealth was all there and Lord Weasley was very meticulous in how he spent it. They didn't move out of their old house until they had invested enough to keep their fortune no matter what." Draco glances at him as he waits for everyone else to start eating. "You seem awfully interested in Politics." 

"Politics," Hadrian muses, a smile twisting onto his lips before he could help it. "No, not quite politics." 

"Allies then?" Draco pushes and Hadrian glances at him, knowing exactly what he meant but found it within his best interest not to answer. Then Breakfast appeared and they began eating. Then he notices Hayes wasn't there.
