--HARRY POV--
I walk onto the train and begin to look for Ron. As I am looking my eyes drift to my hand and I panicked a little. How am I going to explain a Malfoy ring? I can't take it off either because Dracos ring will go cold and he will know.

I look down the length of the train and spot the familiar white-grey hair that seems to sparkle when the light hits it. I can see him but he can't see me, I am quite a bit shorter than Draco. When we were 11 we were around the same hight, but now, as we are both 17, he is almost a full head taller than me.

I continue to scan the train for my best friend, slowly getting closer to where Draco is standing. All of the compartments are full, and there is no sign of Ron or Hermione. Suddenly I bump into someone, I apologise under my breath and begin to walk again.

'Watch it Potter!' Blaise shouts at me.
Shit. I bumped into Blaise, now I will have to have a go at them, including Draco.
I look at them, standing there in tailored suits, and Pansy in a long black dress. You can see the arrogance seeping out of Pansy and Blaise. Normally Draco has the arrogance to match, but as I look him in the eyes I can tell he can't keep up the act for much longer.

The ring on my finger pulses lightly, Dracos heartbeat has sped up, he is nervous.
'Fuck off Blaise, I don't want to deal with your shit right now.' As I say this I rub the ring gently, and Draco seems to calm a little.
'Once we are off this train me and Draco will sort you out. Don't you worry Potter.' He smiles his wicked smile at me, I shiver slightly.
'Oh Blaise you aren't going to 'sort harry out' you don't even have half of Harry's skills.' Hermione. Thank god.

Blaise turns and grabs Dracos arm and pulls him into a compartment, with Pansy swiftly following.

'Harry! Ron and I have been looking all over for you! Where have you been?' She gives me a stern look, a look I know far too well.
'I missed my bus here, I had to wait for the second one and I almost didn't make it onto the train.' To her this is an obvious lie, but she won't question it. She knows she won't get an answer.

She pulls me into a tight hug.
'I missed you Harry, I didn't see you all summer and I was quite worried about you. We both were.' She is talking about Ron. I didn't really think about how much it would affect them. I ignored a lot of their letters and invitations, I was too caught up in Draco.

'I am sorry Hermione, I really am.' She wouldn't want to hear a long explanation, just an apology would do.
She pulled away and smiled at me. I couldn't help but smile back, she truly is the nicest, most caring person I have ever met. She just understands everyone.

She leads me down the corridor a short way and then opens a compartment door. Inside is Luna, Ron, Ginny and Neville. I haven't seen any of them since the end of term, guilt starts to set in.

A chorus of 'Harry!!' Booms through the compartment. I blew them all off for months and they still want to see me. I honestly have the best friends in the world.

***

I spend the remainder of the trip catching up with everyone and lying about my summer. Everyone is understanding that I 'couldn't go out all summer' except Hermione, who still looked at me with that all knowing eye.

'Guys we need to change into our robes, we will be at Hogwarts soon.' Of course Hermione would be thinking about school.
