Ava and Draco made it onto the train, right before it took off. They searched the train compartments but couldn't find their friends. Eventually they gave up their search and found an empty compartment and sat down across from each other.

Their train ride consisted of talking, snogging, and eating food from the trolley.

Halfway through the train ride Ava had fallen asleep on Draco's shoulder. After she was in a deep sleep, so Draco moved her head onto his lap while he leaned back and put his own feet on the other bench. She slept the rest of the way on Draco's lap.

"Ava, it's about 10 minutes til we reach the Platform. You should probably wake up now," said a quiet, but familiar voice in her ears.

Ava groaned and stretched out across the bench she was laying on. She opened her eyes slowly, with a smirk on her face.

When she opened her eyes, she spotted the love of her life's face right above her own.

"Good evening, gorgeous," Draco said as he kissed Ava on her lips. It was a long kiss. Eventually Ava pulled away and shoved her face into Draco's shirt.

"Wake me up in four hours," Ava mumbled into his shirt.

"Can't do that Love. We'll be at King's Cross in five minutes."

"Fine," Ava groaned again while sitting up on the bench. "You are evil, you know that?"

Draco leaned forward and planted a long kiss on Ava's lips, "Not that evil," Draco said in between kisses.

"You're right," Ava said in between their quickly intensifying kiss.

They both jumped apart when they heard the loud, "chooo chooo," of the train horn.

Draco and Ava both kneeled next to the window and looked out it. About five seconds after the train horn went off they begun seeing people on the platform. The train begun slowing down.

Ava spotted her family, but most of all she spotted one specific person, Justin.

Ava let out a squeal of excitement, and started running out of the compartment, stopping to grab her stuff on the way.

"Come on Draco! Hurry!"

"Ava wait! Let me take your stuff."

Ava only slowed down to hand Draco her suitcase, then she took off even faster through the crowd of people on Platform 9 3/4.

She smiled so wide when she spotted her parents and brother smiling back at her. She gathered up speed and flung herself into a hug with her brother.

"I missed you too, Avs," Justin laughed.

Ava eventually withdrew her hug to Justin and flung her arms around both of her parents.

"I missed you guys so much," Ava said with a muffled voice because her face was dug into her father's shirt.

Both her parents laughed. Jacob said, "I suppose you're a little excited to see us?"

"A little is an understatement," Ava laughed, pulling away from their hug.

By this time, Draco was nearing their small but increasing group as more Lockwood kids were hovering near by. Once he was standing next to Ava, he set her suitcase down next to her and said, "Here you go love."

"Daddy, Mummy, you remember Draco, right? Draco, these are my parents, Jacob and Angela Lockwood," said Ava, smiling at Draco.

Draco 1st extended his hand out to her mum and then to her father, shaking both their hands while saying, "Nice to see you again, Mrs. and Mr. Lockwood."

"Please, call us Angela and Jacob, Draco," Ava's mum said smiling.

"Draco, how long have you been dating my daughter? Where do you live? What kind of grades do you get? What do you wanna be when-" Ava's father asked Draco with a stern look, but was interrupted by Ava.

"Daddy, please, let him breath. You'll have plenty of time to grill Draco with questions tomorrow. But for now, he needs to find his parents."

Jacob stared back in forth between Ava and Draco for a long time while before crossing his arms, and muttering, "fine" quietly. Jacob then stalked off to have conversations with his other 9 children. He tried to do this over owl, but none of his other children seemed to care as much about the "situation." Ava assumed he was trying to find out more about Draco, now that they were here, in person.

"Well, love, I better get going. I'm sure my parents are getting restless waiting for me. See you tomorrow love," Draco planted a kiss on Ava's cheek. Then he noticed that the kiss on his daughter's cheek had caught Jacob's attention so he waved toward her father and said, "Goodbye Mr. Lockwood," he turned toward where Justin and Angela were still standing, watching, "Goodbye Angela. Goodbye Justin." He waved at Ava and she waved back at him, and then he walked toward his family.

Ava watched him walk over to his parents and then begin a conversation. His father, Lucius Malfoy, looked disgusted that it had taken Draco that long to find them. Ava hoped that she didn't get him in trouble.

Her attention was turned toward her mother when she said, "He's a really nice boy Ava. I like him. I wish your father and I would have had more time back in November when we were in the hospital to get to know him more. But, give it time and I guarantee your father will love him. Just look at Alicia and Oliver Wood? Your dad despised that boy and now he absolutely loves him. Absence makes the heart grow fonder."

"I will Mum, I promise. And you're right, he is a really nice boy," said Ava as she turned her head back to where Draco's family was standing, "I'm lucky that I found someone like him." Ava smiled.

"Avs!"

Ava snapped her head in the direction she heard her name. She saw a little brown haired, brown eyed little 1st year bounding toward her.

Ava bent down to her size and pulled her into a side hug, "Hey there kiddo! How was your first term? I feel like I hardly saw you at all!"

"It was really good! I learned so much! I've seen you walking around the school with that Malfoy, but most of the time you guys were kissing," she said making a disgusted face. "Oh and Ginny! And I've also made friends!" said her little sister, Cassidy still rambling on about her term at Hogwarts. Ava was chuckling at her. She was just like her when she started Hogwarts.

"And did you hear about the rumors?" Cassidy said in a whisper.

"What rumors?"

"Apparently, there is a secret club of people that are wanting to rebel against Umbridge and the Ministry," whispered Cassidy.

Ava could feel her face getting hot. How did Cassidy know about Dumbledore's Army? Unless either Alex, Allison, Alicia, or Maddie told her (they were all in D.A.) Ava thought to herself. She was about to ask where she heard such a rumor but she was interrupted with a hand softly hitting her back.

"Come on you two dorks, you better hurry or you're gonna miss the portkey," said a familiar voice from none other than their brother Alex.

Now Ava would wait impatiently for the next day to come, when she could finally integrate her beloved boyfriend into her families tight circle. She really did have the best support system in all of the Wizarding World.
