15 - New Friends

Hogdmeade with Malfoy and his friends was different than it was with Fred and George. Seeing them in the Three Broomsticks was weird, especially because I was with The Slytherins.

But if I'm being honest, they weren't that bad. I actually enjoyed hanging out with them. They didn't treat me like they were walking on eggshells or doing everything they could to please me, like a lot of Gryffindors did.

Not that the twins did that, but with these new people, it was just...different.

I excused myself to use the bathroom, but as I was coming out of a stall, I ran into Angelina.

"Hey Ange," I said casually.

"Don't 'Hey Angie' me, Potter," She spat.

"Excuse me?" I replied, taken aback.

"George and I know what you did. You ruined Fred. Absolutely ruined him."

"Fred and I decided to split up together. We both wanted it."

"Really? Because he seems pretty damn heartbroken at our table watching you with Malfoy."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Everyone knows he's the rebound."

"I am not dating Malfoy. He's my friend, Angelina. That's it."

"Fine," She said as she got close, "But stay away from the twins. They're mine."

"Seems a bit selfish and a little odd to want both, don't you think?" I replied simply as I left.

Malfoy's friends, Theodore Nott and Daphne Greengrass, had left. Apparently they had mentioned wanting to "be alone together". Malfoy and I shared a laugh at that as we finished our butterbeer.

"Your friends are here," He said quietly.

"I know," I replied with a nod, "I ran into Angelina in the bathroom."

"She must've loved seeing you."

"Oh, absolutely thrilled," I laughed.

"Your boyfriend didn't like that."

"He's not my boyfriend, Malfoy, and he didn't like what?"

"You laughing at something I said. He looks about ready to come over and kill me."

"Fred and I broke up."

"And two weeks later you're hanging out with his family's sworn enemy. I would be pissed too," He chuckled

"It's not like this is a...a date, right?"

"God no! Hens, you're very beautiful and all, but we aren't on a date."

"I had to make sure!"

"You're that full of yourself?"

"Oh shut up," I laughed, "Let's go to Zonko's."

He nodded and opened the door for me as we walked out of the Three Broomsticks.

As it turns out, Malfoy had never actually been in Zonko's before. I found it odd, seeing as that's one of the main reasons I go to Hogsmeade. That and the fact that Fred and George dragged me there every weekend.

Malfoy was in absolute shock at the array of products in the shop, and was even more shocked at the fact that I passed by all of them and went straight to the back to the fuses, gunpowder, and empty tubes.

"What's all this?" The blonde asked me

"Supplies," I replied with a shrug

"Supplies? For what?"
