Chapter 40

"Malfoy." she quickly fixed herself up and away from his grasped.

"You're welcome, by the way." he said.

"I could've easily picked myself up, thank you very much." she said.

"You're right. I think it would've been better for me to watch you fall flat on your face." he said.

"Oh shut up." Maurelle said.

"If you are looking for a place to sit, you can join me and those two pigs." Draco said.

Maurelle looked around to see if there were any choices, but all compartments were filling up.

"I guess I have no other choice." Maurelle said.

Draco led the way and opened the compartment. Crabbe and Goyle were sitting in their usual seats, but Pansy was sitting on the otherside.

"We saved you a seat Draco" Pansy smiling at Draco. She noticed Maurelle next to him and her face changed to a disgusted look, "I'm sorry Maurelle, it seems there isn't any room for you."

The train suddenly came to a full stop, causing Draco and Maurelle to be pushed inside the compartment. Maurelle's back came into contact with the window and Draco stumbled on top of her. The train stabalized and both of them realized the position they were in. They were blushing like crazy and quickly fixed themselves up. Pansy saw what happened, causing her to be even more jealous of Maurelle.

"What's going on?" Crabbe said.

Maurelle peeked her head out of the compartment along with other students as well. She saw Harry a few doors down and looked at him as if he knows what was going on. Harry gave her a look saying he didn't know as well, suddenly the train jolted one more. Draco started to get scared. He sat down by the window hiding behind Maurelle who was still standing up, but he noticed the window starting to freeze up.

"Something's out there?!" Draco said.

The lights went out and it grew colder.

A dark figure lurks outside of their compartment. Maurelle could here Draco whimpering and Pansy's heavy breathing. Maurelle shushed them and the figure started to open their door. It took it's boney grey hands on the door and slowly slide it open. The hooded figure scans the room, but focuses more on Maurelle. It grows closer and she feels the dementors peering into her soul. She quickly took her wand and casted the incorporeal Patronus charm. It quickly closed the door and flew out.

"What was that?!" Draco said.

"Dementors. They're coming from Askaban." Maurelle said.

She opened the sliding door, but her hand was grabbed by Draco.

"What are you doing?! Don't go out there! Are you crazy?" He whispered.

"Do you want to come then?" Maurelle said.

Draco let go of her arm and raise both of his hands to surrender.

Maurelle walked out of her compartment and saw another dementor in the compartment Harry was in. She quickly casted another incorporeal Patronus. The dementor ran off the other way and Maurelle went to go check if they were okay.

"Hey guys." Maurelle smiled at Hermione and Ron.

"Thank goodness you're here!" Ron said.

But she noticed Harry, " What happened to Harry?!"

"After you shined that dementor away, he sort of fainted." Hermione said.

"That was good work, Ms. Freya!" a man said.
