I Never Thought....

Memories Come Rushing Back

Harry and Neville were walking to Defense Against The Dark Arts as it was their first lesson. Harry was not looking forward to it at all. He was so sick of Umbridge and everything she is doing to change the school.

Walking into the classroom, the raven haired boy took his seat next to Hermione and Ron. Umbridge dressed in the same pink coat, shoes and dress walked into the room dropping large books onto our desk.

"Students! Your O.W.L.S are coming up soon so I ask you to start studying as you do not want to Fail!" Umbridge said while walking to the front of the classroom.

"Especially you Potter" She said particularly emphasizing the 'P' in Potter.

Most of the Slytherin's snickered in the background....even Malfoy...which made an odd feeling overcome Harry. Squirming restlessly in his seat with occasional glares and stares at Malfoy. The blonde was laughing with his friends and actually enjoying himself. How is he not getting in trouble by Umbridge! Harry thought, feeling a tinge of jealously.

"MR POTTER!" Umbridge screamed in anger "POTTER!!"

"w-what?" Harry said being oblivious as usual.

"Pay attention if you don't want to fail" she hissed "and keep your eyes off Mr Malfoy, your distracting him"

Harry began to turn a bright pink and so did Draco. Confused stares from Hermione and an angry look from Ron. Even Pansy and Blaise looked at Draco confused as ever. Harry gulped down a huge lump that stopped him from talking and what felt like breathing.

As soon as the bell rang, he grabbed his books and walked straight out the door with his head down low. He could hear footsteps chasing after him, assuming it was Hermione and Ron, he decided to keep walking. With a loud thump, he ran into someone while turning a corner.

"o-oh sorry" He couldn't quite get the words out.

"Oh its you, watch where your going next time potty" the voice said coldly as he was standing up.

"Malfoy?" i question "oh sorry i guess"

Hermione and Ron caught up to Harry and they saw that he wasn't alone but with the one and only Draco Malfoy. Hermione could feel the heat of boiling anger radiating off Ron and she knew he was about to loose it.

"Oi! Get away from Harry" Ron yelled.

Draco looked up startled and he just rolled his eyes.

"I'm not hurting him weasely but I'm not afraid to hurt you though" Draco hissed.

"Oh yeah, try me!" Ron challenged.

Hermione just rolled her eyes and told them to grow up. They did not listen and continued to argue back and forth. Ron was getting very made, mostly because Draco brought up his parents...he gets very defensive about that.

"Ron! Malfoy! Stop it!" Harry walked in between them.

"Oh look! its saint Potter trying to save poor wittle weasely" Draco spat.

The raven haired boy's blood was boiling, he didn't want to hurt Malfoy but if he didn't cut the crap then he would need to do something.

"Oh shut it Malfoy" Harry said with a hint of plead.

This however made Malfoy want to keep at it, it gave him pleasure to see Potter flustered and annoyed.

"Oh yeah Potter, well move outta the way so i can finish this!" Draco said strutting closer to Ron who had his wand out.

"Expelliarmus!" Harry yelled, making Draco and Ron's wand fly out of their hands.

They both glared Harry with anger but Hermione pulled Ron away; however that didn't stop Malfoy. Draco quickened his pace and came directly at Harry who stumbled on his feet and now is stuck between the wall and Malfoy.
