(Means Parcel tongue)

(Begining Of 4th year)

Sage's Pov

"Sage! Over here!" I hear, causing me to turn and see my best friend, Willow Key, sticking her head out of one of the windows of the Hogwarts Express.

"Draco, this way." I order, grabbing Draco's arm and pull him towards the train with our shrunken stuff in our pockets.

"I can see that, Sage." Draco retorts while yanking his arm out of my grip. We reach the coach that Willow had stuck her head out of and see Willow is now sitting down and reading on her phone.

"Wattpad?" I ask, not able to keep the smirk from appearing on my face. I onle recieve a hum in responce and I roll my eyes. "So, Draco. Are you excited to see Harry this year?" I ask, causing Draco to glare at me and Willow starts snickering.

"Shut up, Sage." Draco pouts, crossing his arms and continues to glare at me. I start laughing along with Willow. 

"Come on, Draco. Just ask him out! I mean, he's eventually notice you staring at his ass." Willow says after her and I calm down. Draco's face gains a pink tint, which causes Willow and I to start laughing all over again.

Suddenly, we hear someone approaching our coach, as if they are running from someone. The knob starts moving, but the door doesn't open because I locked it after entering.  "Damn it! This was the only one left!" We hear a familiar voice say.

"Harry?" I ask, reaching over and opening the door after unlocking it. I see a surprised Harry Potter standing right outside the door way. 

"Ugh. . .  .I'm sorry!" Harry squeaks while gripping his bag tightly.

"Harry? Harry, where are you!?" We hear the Weaslette yell.

"Bloody hell!" Harry sighs and turns to run, but I quickly grab his arm and before he can go, I pull him into the coach, but I pull to hard and Harry falls right onto Draco's lap. I quickly close and lock the door with a wave of my hand and go sit down by the window and next to Willow. Harry then opens his eyes and meets Draco's surprised stare. Harry's face turns bright red and he lets out high-pitched 'sorry'. He then rolls off of Draco and sits in the seat right across from me. Willow looks over at me with an evil grin that probably matches the one on my face.

"So, why are you hiding from Ginny?" Willow asks, petting her ocicat cat, Pounce. Pounce has super speed and is slightly magical.

"Well it's- it's a long story." Harry responds, trying to end the conversation, but Willow isn't letting this go.

"We got time."  She retorts, glancing at Draco and I. Just as Harry is no doubt about to argue, the train jerks and starts moving. We all look at Harry and he cracks.

"Well, I guess she thinks. . .  . she thinks we're dating." Harry stutters, quickly glancing over at Draco and back to Willow and I, somehow without Draco noticing. Unfortanetly, Willow and I notice. 

"What makes her think that?" Draco says, his facing set in a grimace. 

"Well, apparently Ron thought I liked her and told Ginny, which makes her think that we're now dating." Harry finishes with a sigh. I glance over at Draco, who has a look of fury on his face and I grin. He got it so bad.

"Ouch, that's rough, buddy." I say, looking over at Harry.

"Yeah,  I always saw her as a sister, but appearantly it wasn't mutual." Harry says while looking down at his lap. The look of fury on Draco's face calms at this, though there is still a slight fire in his eyes.  

(Is the other speaker here?) I hear, causing me to look down at my left sleeve, seeing a toxic green and black snake slither out of it and into my lap. The snake, named Snarky, is my familiar. He is a magical snake that is only 1 and 1/2 feet long, but is extremely venomous. He's pretty  chill though, minus the fact that he's a sarcastic little shit.

(Yes.) Harry answers, earning a surprised look from Draco and Willow. They must have forgot he was a parcel tongue.  Snarky looks over at him and tilts his head, much like a cat. Sometimes I think he forgets he's a snake. 

(So this is the guy Draco wants to bang.) Snarky says, causing Harry's jaw to drop, much like mine did. I glance over at Willow to see her brow furrowed in thought. I've been slowly teaching her basic parcel tongue and she must be trying to understand what Snarky just hissed. 

I lean over and whisper to her what he said, causing her eyes to widen and she starts laughing. which seems to irritate Draco due to the fact that I didn't tell him. I wonder how he'd react? I look back at Harry to see his face is bright red and he won't even look in the direction of Draco. I can't help but join in on Willow's laughter, making Draco even more annoyed.

"What did he say?!" Draco asks, glancing between Harry and I for answers. I look over at Harry and I see that he's still not looking at the blonde, causing me to grin. I then look at Willow, who seems to know exactly what I'm think (as usual) and she leans over to whisper into Draco's ear.

"What?!" He yells, head turning violently towards Snarky, who seems to be enjoying the chaos he created. Draco then looks over at Harry, who still won't look his way and I see Draco's face turn bright red in embarrassment. 

"Don't worry, Harry. Snarky just likes to cause drama." I say, realizing that these two idiots aren't gonna get anywhere with this. Harry looks over at me and then Snarky, muttering something that I don't catch, but I have a feeling it's towards my snake and is not positive.

The tension is broken when Willow speaks up, "Hey, we better get changed, we're almost there." Hell, we're not even at Hogwarts yet, but I already know one thing. . .  .



This year is gonna be interesting.
