As Draco and I exited off the train, we were tracked down by a platinum, blonde haired man and women. Draco's parents. I remember meeting them back in Diagon Alley, it felt like forever ago. The last time I stepped into Diagon Alley, I mean. I was quickly pulled out of my thoughts when Draco decided to drag me off before his parents had finishes speaking about summer plans and all. I held my head high and started walking along side him after pulling my arm out of his grasp. Talking and joking around with him quietly as his parents caught up with us. Gracefully walking beside us. We stopped and Mr. Malfoy started talking once again,

"This summer will most likely be noneventful, we will not be going on vacation and because of the ministry demanding me to be there, you two will be left relatively unattended." Mr Malfoy stopped talking agter this segment and appareted us out ofKjng Cross Station. As we landed and entered the manor, Draco dragged me off and to a room set up for my stay.

The summer seemed to drill on for Harrison. It was long and ultimately, very uneventful. He spent most of his time in the Malfoy Library with Draco  blabbering on about the abundant wealth and power the Malfoy family held. They worked on their summer homework while in the company of each other in the library as well. The summer wore on the same though. Draco and Hadrian hung out a lot. Blaise and Pansy had appeared a few times as well. The more Hadrian spent in the library, the more he became interested in dark magic. It became apparent to him that his magic was pulling him to the dark. Whether he liked it or not he was being pulled to it like a moth to a flame. It was as if those books were an enigma. Hadrian gave in after awhile and Draco had caught Hadrian one day reading those books. Hadrian was so engrossed in his studies that he hadn't even noticed Dracos beautiful pale face standing in front of him. Paler then Hadrian had remembered. They hadn't talked for days. An argument ensued on the fourth day of not talking. It was bad, so bad, in fact, that Draco's father had to step in. The friendship recovered many weeks after that argument. After awhile, Draco had asked why he had done it. Hadrian had no clue. He was drawn to it. He was drawn to the dark. It was a realization that he has had many times before but it was, now, truly sinking in. A breaking point he hadn't even realized. He had quickly fled the room in that moment and hid for days on end in his room. Not coming out even when Draco had came in and tried to physically drag him out. It was six days later when he finally exited his room for the first time. Face puffy, splotchy, and red, with his hair slightly matted. Draco fretted over the terrible state he was in but Hadrian had, once again, waved it off. Saying it was nothing and that he was fine. That was the end of it. The end of the summer was relatively relaxing. Nothing occurring and Draco and Hadrian acting as if they were kids once more. Happy they were together this summer. It all ended though, the day before they were about to leave to Hogwarts they were in a rush to pack. They had gone to Diagon Alley the week prior to acquire their school materials and while out they had saw there new DADA teacher. 'Professor' Lockhart. Neither Draco or Hadrian liked him. The smile was to big and to fake to be real. After awhile, Hope had been noticed by Lockhart in the crowd and once more, got onto the front page. After that incident, nothing occurred. An annoying tick, but nothing to ghastly. They packed and packed for hours. Trying to stuff everything in their compartments of their trunks. Three hours later, they had finally finished. They relaxed, all they did that night was laugh with each other and relax. The next day, they loaded on the train at Eleven A.M. it was back to Hogwarts for them and this school year certain wasn't going to be uneventful.
