 The next morning, I wake to find Hermione sleeps on my bed. Only, it's not my bed. My bed has been replaced with a queen sized bed, covered in emerald silk. Viktor and Ron sleep on the armchairs.

 With a sigh, I crawl out of bed and grab some clothes, before I walk into the laboratory and start the bath water.

 When I sink into the soapy water, I close my eyes and hum at the warmth.

 The door slings open and I jump as Harry steps into the laboratory "Bloody hell!" I hiss "You startled me!"

 "I'm sorry." he gives a weak smile, before sits on the side of the tub "And how are you this morning?"

 "I'm fine." I sigh, messing with Viktor's golden egg "You know what this reminds me of?" he hums, as if asking the question "A muscle." he gives me a weird look "You know, the shellfish?"

 "Oh." he chuckles, before scrunching his nose with a smile "Yeah, it kinda looks like a clam off of a movie I once watched."

 "What's a movie?" I ask and he gives me a shocked look "What?"

 "You've never watched a movie?" he asks and I shake my head "Well, I'll have to show you." he smirks "One day, we'll meet up in London and go watch a movie." he nods shortly.

 "Yeah, that'll be right after I transfer to Hogwarts." I roll my eyes and smirk sarcastically, before moving further down in the tub "So, what was this movie about?"

 "Merpeople." Harry groans "The clam I saw had a mermaid in it." I nod at that, before glaring down at the egg "What?"

 "I have an idea." I frown, before grabbing the egg and pulling it underwater. As I open it, an angelic voice starts to spin a serenade.

 When I pull my head up to catch my breath, I look to Harry and smirk "What?"

 "Go get a quill and parchment!" I demand, before going back under.

 As we walk into the library, I can feel eyes piercing my back. When Hermione and I walk off to find a few books, I clear my throat "Do we know what the professors told the students?"

 "No." she states, before giving a weak smile "Snape said he'd deal with it, but that's all he said."

 "Draco!" I freeze and dare not look back at the voice coming from behind me. When the head of his walking stick is placed on my shoulder.

 "Lucius." I speak emotionlessly, until he grips my shoulder and I smack his hand away. A look of annoyance carves into his features "What are you doing here?"

 "Karkaroff ordered me here, so I'm here." he scowls at me "Because of your mistakes."

 "How is this possibly my mistake?" I ask, crossing my arms in front of me. When his stick meets my stomach, I groan and grip the desk behind me "Maybe I wouldn't back-talk, if you made any sense!"

 He sighs, before turning around "Come along, Draco." Needless to say, I follow after him. When I pass Harry, Ron, and Viktor, Harry gives me a worried look and I shrug.

 When we're out in the hall, he sighs "Why am I here?" he asks and I look to him in confusion "Karkaroff didn't tell me the details."

 When I don't reply, he stops and looks at me "This girl..." I clear my throat and look down at the ground "She assaulted me..."

 He sighs "And you didn't fight back?"

 "I couldn't." I state, looking up at his bewildered face "It... it wasn't like that type of assault..."
