The Train to Hogwarts

326 14 10
                                    

We all left together to the train station and I went to greet my family and Cedric. As he was standing with both our fathers. I smiled at him once he spotted me I also decided to speed walk to him. Cedric took my hand and kissed it while keeping eye contact with me causing me to blush. I then greeted our fathers before Cedric let them know that we can to board the train as he was prefects to his house. 

I was walking with Cedric after meeting up with him by accident as I left Draco to find the lady that sold the sweets. He insisted on walking me back to Draco when we felt everything go cold. I turned to Cedric and told him that he needs to make sure the other students were in their compartments. I turned around and ran as fast as I could to Harry. I didn't want him to relive our memory of his mother dying to save us. But I was too late that thing was already there so I did the only thing I could think of. 

"EXPECTO PATRONUM!"

The dementor flew away and I quickly moved to the door of the compartment. I noticed two shocked faces from my left and one adult just as surprised before I collapsed on Harry slightly conscious.

"Bloody Hell."

"Ronald!"

"Right, sorry Professor."

"Well let's get these two on the seats. While I check my bags for more chocolate." said the professor.

I felt tired but I couldn't and wouldn't let go of Harry as they tried to pick me up. I heard Hermione whisper in my ear to remind me that Harry was safe. Did she know? I allowed myself to relax knowing that she was right I had just saved him. The man handed me some chocolate that he had in his pocket once I was seated and return to look in his bags as Ron and Hermione picked up Harry and placed him into a seat. He still didn't wake and I began to worry or at was it my Veela that was worried. 

The Professor was squatting before me, "What year are you?"

"The same as us Professor it is only our third year," said Hermione as she tried to protect me.

He just looked from her to me before speaking again, "How did you know that spell?"

Sighing, "I saw someone teaching it to someone I hold dear to my heart. I took a chance on the spell when I saw that thing hurting Harry. Before you ask Professor I was forbidden to speaking about things I have seen. I only promised to share what I have seen with Harry as it deals with our safety."

"Who are you?" he asked in a tone that showed fear.

I smiled at him, "I am Elizabeth Andromeda Malfoy, Sir." 

I noticed when he heard my middle name that he knew my real parents.

"By the look on your face sir. I assume that you know some truth that is forbidden to me as well."

To shocked with my reply all he did was nod his head in reply. Harry was starting to wake and we all turned to him. The professor gave him chocolate and said that he was going to check on the other students. Harry was about to speak when I decided to move quickly and shush him.

"No Harry. It's not safe to speak about it here."I said as I grabbed his hand.

"You know what I've seen."

I couldn't look at him as I nodded and I knew he was upset because he pulled his hand away from me.

"How long?" was all he said.

"Harry."

"How long?" he growled in anger.

I glanced at Hermione and Ronald to see that they were just as uncomfortable. So I took a deep breath and looked up at Harry confirming that he was indeed angry.

"Not long. Every time you asked about it I could feel that I did but I could never remember it. Harry, I did tell you that I had something to tell you. But so many things happened and forgot about it until now."

"Harry she saved you," said Hermione trying to help.

"Yeah mate, she was the one to make that awful thing go away."

"That thing as you call it is a Dementor, Ronald," I said not looking away from Harry.

Harry was looking at his best friends and I knew that it was probably best if I left. With tears in my eyes, I stood up to leave and find my brother as he was the only one that could comfort me in this pain of rejection. Was it rejection or something more? 

"Where are you going?" asked Harry as he grabbed my hand.

I turned back to Harry confused by his reaction he sounded so afraid.

"I thought I would leave you with your best friends to talk. Your upset with me and I didn't think you would want me here."

"Yes, I am upset but not at you. Well, maybe a little bit at you. But you are right about the things that happened lately so please just stay. This is something that belongs to just us."

I nodded not knowing what else to say or do. I sat with him and listened to how both Hermione and Ronald explain to Harry what had happened. I enjoyed being beside Harry and allowed myself to sleep as I knew it was what I really needed after casting a spell like that.
