Book 1: Echo (Harry Potter's Little Sister)

||Chapter 4 2/2: Malfoy||

"Malfoy?" Harry gasped. The boy just grinned.

"That's right, Potter," he snapped. "Just admit how much you loved that already."

"Leave him alone," Ginny hissed.

"Wow, Potter, already found yourself a girlfriend!"

"What part of 'leave him alone' do you not understand?" I asked Malfoy. Harry told me about him, and how annoying he is. I couldn't remember his first name, but it was on the tip of my tongue.

Malfoy stepped up to me, so then we were an inch away from each other. He was a couple of inches taller than me, and he looked even taller up close.

"And who are you?" Malfoy spat. "One of Potter's fans?"

"Hey," Harry said. Malfoy turned to face him. "That's my sister."

Malfoy looked at me, then at Harry, then at me, then back at Harry. He turned towards me again, and this time he looked into my eyes. I saw his glare soften a bit, but the evil grin that was on his face earlier came back.

"So your Annabelle Potter," Malfoy whispered. He smiled even more. "I'm Malfoy. Draco Malfoy. It's nice to finally meet you."

Malfoy held out his hand, and I shook it tenderly. I will never forget that moment. His hand was warm, and he shook mine with care. As if he didn't want to kill me like he wanted to kill Harry. As if he wasn't kidding about being pleased to meet me.

I looked up into Draco's face. He was still wearing his mischievous smile. I didn't mean to do it, but my glare softened as well. I tried to sustain it, but I told myself that he was just trying to get me onto his side. If I wasn't careful... I think I would've fallen into his trap.

************

"So, Potter," Malfoy taunted, turning back to Harry. "Who is your girlfriend?"

A silver snake head clamped down on the boy's shoulder.

"Now, Draco, play nicely," a deep voice cooed. Malfoy stepped aside and revealed a man that looked exactly like him, but older. This had to be Malfoy's dad.

"Sorry to interrupt," he said. "Allow me to introduce myself. I am Lucius Malfoy, Draco's father (called it). You must be his schoolmates."

"We are," Hermione said, careful not to sound rude.

"So, you are Miss Hermione Granger, no?" Mr. Malfoy asked. Hermione nodded. "Draco has told me all about your wits. And you come from a muggle family?" Hermione nodded again. "Fascinating." Draco just watched his father.

"And you are, Arthur's children?" Mr. Malfoy turned to Ron and Ginny. They nodded their heads slowly. "Ah. I work with your father at the Ministry."

Malfoy turned to Harry and me. "Well, well, the Potters. Pleased to finally meet you. Forgive me -"

Malfoy lunged forward with his snake cane. He brushed aside Harry's messy bangs with it, revealing his scar.

"Your scar is legend," Malfoy whispered. He grinned. "The person who gave it to you is as well."

"Voldemort killed my parents," Harry stated. Everyone except for Harry and me flinched at the sound of Voldemort.

Mr. Malfoy raised his eyebrows. "You must have plenty of courage to say his name," he said.

"Fear of the name causes fear of the thing itself," said Hermione. Damn Hermione, you're really good at creating quotes, I thought.

Arthur Weasley stepped forward. I decided to grab Ginny and pay for our books. Mr. Weasley and Mr. Malfoy looked like they were about to kill each other, and if they did, I wouldn't want to be a witness.

As soon as we finished paying, the Malfoys looked like they were leaving. We headed back to the group so we could get the rest of our things.

Draco was being escorted out of the book shop by his father. He turned around one last time.

"See you in school," Draco said. He looked at me and did a little eyebrow push-up. {Mini A/N: An eyebrow push-up is what I like to call when you raise your eyebrows up and down, like a push-up. Ik I'm weird 🤓}

With that, the Malfoys left the book shop.
