Harry's P. O. V

Harry had received his letter from hagrid and now stood staring at the intimidating entrance of Gringotts, his fear of being seen in his scruffy clothes was daunting yet was overwhelmed by his fear of people but soon enough they were stood in front of a tall wooden desk, sat behind it was an unfriendly looking creature. "Mr Harry  Potter wishes to make a withdrawal" Hadgrid spoke to the goblin and it stopped what it was doing and leering over the desk asked.

"Does Mr Harry Potter have his key?" hagrid started patting himself down "hold on a minute I've got it here somewhere" after a few seconds he pulled out a gold key and an envelope "this is about you know what in vault you know which" how cryptic harry though but shrugged it off thinking that it was non of his business.

The goblin climbed down from his chair and guided them towards some carts, they both climbed in once grip Hook was in it suddenly jolted forward at an increadible speed 'this must be what roller-coasters feel like' harry thought. Finally the cart stopped "vault 687" griphook climbed out and turned to hagrid "lamp please" hagrid passed him the lamp. They approached the vault door "key please" the key was placed in the lock and the sound of cogs turning was heard, the door slowly opened and all harry could see was gold.

"T-that's mine?" Harry staired up at hagrid pale and eyes wide "you didn't think you parents would leave you with nothing now did ya? " harry really hadn't thought about it much he truly didn't think anyone cared about him.

The rest of the visit to Gringotts went by fast even the trip to the mystery vault, next stop was madam malkins robes for all occasions to get his robes, the shop had  extravagant robes on one side and school robes on the other. The woman who ran the shop was a short stocky woman with white hair "what do you need?" the elderly lady asked harry.

He struggled to answer her his anxiety claiming his voice from him hagrid noticed and spoke up for him "he need robes for hogwarts madam malkin" she smiled at him.

"well I'm sure we have your size just step on the podium and I'll messure you?" she ussered harry onto one of the stands and started to messure his arms waist and height just as she was about to get harry his robes a blonde boy walked in. "just a minute and I'll be right with you" the boy just nodded and walked onto the podium.

"your going to hogwarts as well?" the blonde boy asked Harry just nodded "well I'm hoping to be sorted into slytherin like my father" Harry remembered hagrid talking about houses on the way here harry liked hufflepuff, ravenclaw and slytherin but not griffindor as its for the brave Harry preferred books over people so maybe revenclaw or slytherin.

"I think I might be sorted in to either ravenclaw or slytherin" harry thought aloud madam malkin came back with a arm full of robes the blonde was staring intently at Harry. Harry took the robe she held out for him the robes fitted him like a glove and relt softer that any of his other clothes "they suit you better than your current clothes" the blonde commented.

Harry's cheeks tinted red "yeah their handme downs so their quite big" harry picked at the hem of his shirt clearly uncomfortable that someone noticed his tatty clothing.

"I'm Malfoy by the way Draco Malfoy" he seemed to almost beam with pride at the mention of his last name clearly his parents were important.

"I'm Harry-Harry Potter" Draco's face whipped back to look at Harry

"your the Harry Potter the boy who lived??" Harry's face was red yet confusion etched on it 'why does everyone keep calling me that?' he thought however he was brought back to reality when madam malkin started to speak "how many do you need dear?" she asked.
