3rd P.O.V

Draco went to buys his robes while Narcissa sr. went to check out some wands. He saw a boy of his age there and tried to start a conversation

'Hullo,' said Draco, 'Hogwarts too?'

'Yes,' said Harry.

'My father's next door buying my books and mother's up the street looking at wands,' said Draco. 'Then I'm going to drag them off to look at racing brooms. I don't see why first-years can't have their own. I think I'll bully father into getting me one and I'll smuggle it in somehow.'

. 'Have you got your own broom?' Draco went on.

'No,' said Harry.

'Play Quidditch at all?'

'No,' Harry said again, wondering.

'I do – Father says it's a crime if I'm not picked to play for my house, and I must say, I agree. Know what house you'll be in yet?'

'No,' said Harry, feeling more stupid by the minute.

'Well, no one really knows until they get there, do they, but I know I'll be in Slytherin, all our family have been – imagine being in Hufflepuff, I think I'd leave, wouldn't you?'

'Mmm,' said Harry.

'I say, look at that man!' said the boy suddenly, nodding towards the front window. Hagrid was standing there, grinning at Harry and pointing at two large ice-creams to show he couldn't come in.

'That's Hagrid,' said Harry, pleased to know something the boy didn't. 'He works at Hogwarts.'

'Oh,' said the boy, 'I've heard of him. He's a sort of servant, isn't he?'

'He's the gamekeeper,' said Harry.

'Yes, exactly. I heard he's a sort of savage – lives in a hut in the school grounds and every now and then he gets drunk, tries to do magic and ends up setting fire to his bed.'

'I think he's brilliant,' said Harry coldly.

'Do you?' said the boy, with a slight sneer.

'Why is he with you? Where are your parents?'

'They're dead,' said Harry shortly.

'Oh, sorry,' said the other, not sounding sorry at all. 'But they were our kind, weren't they?'

'They were a witch and wizard, if that's what you mean.'

'I really don't think they should let the other sort in, do you? They're just not the same, they've never been brought up to know our ways. Some of them have never even heard of Hogwarts until they get the letter, imagine. I think they should keep it in the old wizarding families. What's your surname, anyway?'

But before Harry could answer,

A girl with the same blonde girl entered the shop.

"Oh hello, Madame Malkin." The girl greeted.

"Hello, Narcissa."Madam Malkin said.

"Are you done with Draco's robes? Mother and father are waiting for him." The girl, Narcissa asked.

"Nearly done, darling. As you can see loads of children here"

'That's you done, my dear,' and Harry, hopped down from the footstool.

'Well, I'll see you at Hogwarts, I suppose ." Draco said to the boy.

NARCISSA'S P.O.V

"draco you mustn't talk with strangers. I know you want to make friends but don't talk her. Father might get upset" I said as soon as we walked outside.

"Cissy, will you go to Harry when he comes to Hogwarts and leave me?"Draco asked.

"no, Draco. He might be my brother but you are too. I will love you both equally. I will always stand by you, but not when you're wrong. Now let's get you some ice cream okay?"I said and we went with our parents' to buy the ice cream. After that Draco and mother went to buy his wand while me and father went to meet aunt Trixie.

Aunt Trixie is always happy to see me. This time too. No one visits her. Not even mother. She might feel so lonely. I know she has committed crimes. She is learning her mistake but I know that her loyalty will always be with the Dark Lord. Merlin help her.
