Draco's Filthy Little Secret

The Train

This was it. The day had finally come to start the next seven years of my life. As I grabbed my trunk and owl, my mother made sure I had packed everything. It seemed that she was more nervous than I am. My father, however, was not quite as excited. He's been acting very strange lately, more so than usual. I tried not to let it bother me but deep down it did. I decided to forget about it and leave any negative thoughts here, after all in a couple of hours I will be making my way through the great hall in Hogwarts.

When we finally arrived at the train station I heard my father complaining about all the muggles saying they were filthy little gits. Choosing to ignore him I kept walking beside my mother. I never really understood his hatred towards muggles, I suppose it was just the way he was raised. After all, my grandparents were obsessed with the idea of purebloods and keeping the house of Dolohov pure.

After we had found platforms nine and ten, we began our run continuing in through the wall. Here I was standing on platform 9 3/4. The moment I've waited for my entire life.

I spotted my friend Daphne Greengrass about to board the train. After saying my goodbyes to my parents I quickly ran up behind her and followed her on. Once on the train, I made my down the train searching for a compartment. "Atlas over here!" I heard Daphne say.

I shuffled into the compartment she was in and sat down across from her. We immediately began talking and catching up with each other. Daphne and I have been friends basically since birth, she was the sister I never had. After talking for a while, another girl came in to sit with us. She introduced herself as Pansy Parkinson. She seemed nice enough. A little bit of a pug face though.

The train began moving and before I knew it we came to a stop. I glanced out the window and cheerfully said "We're here!". Followed by my friends I made my way off the train and boarded a boat. Soon after everyone was on a boat we started moving across the Black Lake towards Hogwarts.
