Harry's POV (first year)
------------------------

I walked down the cobblestone path of a small alley, looking around in wonder. I looked up at a very tall man, whose name was Hagrid. He had just taken me to a bank, Gringotts, and showed me a vault, which is where My parents had left me a bunch of money.

We left with our pockets filled, and our arms with two buckets of money each. Hagrid carried four, though, because I got tired. Hagrid took me to a shop called Olivanders, which I had no clue what it was. There were no walmarts or targets around here.

We walked in and said hello to Mr. Olivander, who was cheerful to see us. He let me try wand after wand, until I finally got the right one. It was so fricking-excuse my language!-cool.

We then left for another shop where I would get my robes for school. I've never gotten any other clothes besides dudleys...I wonder what I'll get here...

I walked up onto a platform thingy and hummed, looking around. I saw a blond boy next to me, who cursed as someone poked him wit a needle. I let out a giggle, making him turn to me. He tilted his head.

"Hogwarts?"

"What did you just call me?"

He snorted. "It's the school, silly."

He glanced at my glasses, then my forehead, then my clothes. I shied back, not wanting him staring at me. He finally looked up.

"You're Harry Potter, aren't you?"

"Um...yes," I murmured.

"Nice to meet you! I'm Draco Malfoy. I'm going to hogwarts too, this is my first year. What house do you thin you'll be sorted in?"

"I...I don't know," I said quietly.

"Do you know what they are?" He asked. I shook my head, a blush making its way on my face.

Draco smiled and explained the school to me, the houses, what they are and how I would get sorted. Then he told me about blood statuses. I was shocked at all the new information I was recieving. I told him about my childhood, how I was raised by people who weren't wizards.

"Muggles?" He asked.

"Uh...okay." I murmured, then continued talking.

I didn't even notice we were done getting fit, we were in a very interesting conversation about me explaining what a radio was. We both smiled and said goodbye, and I skipped off the school as went to Hagrid.

Did I just make a friend?

----------------------------

I was on my way to the train, and I had to get to platform 9 3/4

Okay, I thought. I just have to find it. I walked down the platform, looking at all of the different platforms. I didn't see 9/34. I frowned and went to an employee.

"Excuse me, sir? Where can I find platform 9 3/4?" I asked.

"Why does everyone keep asking me that? You are the 3rd person today! There is no platform 9 3/4!" He declared, then stomped away. Shoot.

" Darling are you looking for 9 3/4?" Asked a pink faced woman.

"U-um...yes ma'am." I whispered.

" Ok all you have to do is just go through the wall between platforms 9 and 10." she said pointing to the wall.

I just looked at her questionely. So I meet a woman I literally just met, and she says to run through a wall?

"Okay okay, Fred George will you show him?" And then one at a time the twin like looking boys went through the wall. then another boy with red curly hair, like everyone else's his hair was red, but it was the only one besides the mom that had curly hair. then I went. I ran to the wall and when I came out there was a loud noise, and the platform was packed. there were students all over the place and everyone was going on the train that read : THE HOGWARTS EXPRESS

Just then another red haired boy came out of the wall, then the mom.  We all huddled onto the train and then the red haired boy sat in a compartment across from me.

" No way" he finally said breaking silence. He took a closer look at me. "You're Harry Potter," he smiled.

"Uh yeah" I said quietly, yet again. I lifted my hair that was over my scar when he asked to see it. He stared at in awe, then looked away as a bushy haired big toothed girl came in asking if she could sit.

"My name is Hermione Granger, pleased To meet you." she said, holding her hands out to us one at a time to shake hands.

"Harry Potter" I said. she looked at me with a smile and said,

"I knew you looked firmiliar,"

We all talked for a little while until it broke out into a conversation about houses. Then it turned into us talking about a kid named Draco Malfloy.

Draco Malfoy. Draco Malfoy.
Draco Malfoy! Shoot! I knew him! He is the one that I met at the robe shop! They keep talking about him saying he's mean but he seemed so nice!

"Harry?"

I head snapped up to see them staring at me.

"Sorry.. just thinking about stuff" I said, fidgeting awkwardly.

"Ok.. Well do you really think Malfoy would be sorted into anything else besides slytherin? I mean, he's bad news." Hermione said. That made me huff in anger.

------------

We finally got to Hogwarts. it was beautiful it was huge, compared to my
Cupboard. The first years came in by boat, and then were seated in the front to be called over to be sorted.

Then, a boy came over to me. not just any boy. Draco Malfoy.
"Hello again, Potter, do you remember me? Draco Malfoy," he smiled as he held out his hand.

" I would like you to be my friend." I just stood there a little shocked by everyone wondering what I would do. what should I do?

I grabbed his hand and shook it.
