Anna's POV

I felt really bad and hoped that the trio weren't upset with me. After all, I had only made up with them 15 minutes ago. This whole having friends in rival houses is harder than I thought. I noticed Hagrid and began the lesson and saw a mix between a horse and a bird eating one of the dead ferrets Hagrid had brought.

"Who wants to go first?" Hagrid says. We all take a step back, leaving Harry on his own at the front.
"Well done Harry!" Hagrid says as how listens to Hagrid's instructions. I was nervous for him and walked over to the big rock and stood next to Neville, whose clothes were shredded in some areas from where his books had attacked him. I send him a smile and he blushes and smiles back.

Then Crabbe and Goyle shove him out of the way and let Draco stand there instead. Crabbe stood next to me and Goyle next to Draco. I could feel a presence behind me and knew it was Blaise. Draco bit into him green apple and offered me a bite too. I spun the apple around and took a bite. He would only ever eat the green ones for some reason.
"Why'd you only eat green apples?" I ask him curiously.
"Because their the nicest?" he says as though it was obvious.

Buckbeak starts to run through the trees very quickly before taking off, Harry gripping onto the Hippogriff for dear life as they soar over our heads and up through the trees.
"Honestly, Saint Potter, the teachers favourite of course" Draco says biting into his apple again.
"I bet that he will only pick Gryffindor's to demonstrate all this year" Blaise adds leaning on my shoulder.
"Yeah" Crabbe and Goyle say. I have to hold in a laugh. They don't even have an opinion, its like they don't have their own brain.
"He won't. Hagrid's one of the nicest teachers at Hogwarts. Plus I don't think Harry even wanted to do it in the first place" I tell them. Blaise scoffs from behind me.
" Of course he didn't" Blaise huffs.

A few minutes later Harry and Buckbeak came back down through the trees and landed in the clearing. A cheer rose from all of us watching, except Draco, Blaise and some of the Slytherins. I tut and shake my head at them before whooping and clapping.
"Well done Harry, well done indeed" Hagrid says beaming as he helps Harry down. I hear Draco scoff from next to me and I turn to look at him.
"Oh god, anybody could do that. Saint Potter" he tells me before grabbing my arm and pulling me towards Buckbeak.

"Your not dangerous at all are you?! Great ugly brute" he shouts at Buckbeak dragging us towards him.
"Draco" I whisper.
"This isn't a good idea" I tell him.
"Don't be a wuss Flint" he says sending me his charming smirk. I roll my eyes and follow him a little more willingly. 

Suddenly, Buckbeak rears up onto his hind legs and begins squawking at us. I watch Draco's eyes widen. The next 20 seconds feel like slow motion. I feel a tear across my abdomen and I squeal in pain. Next thing I know, I am laying on the floor, Draco's head resting on my abdomen as he begins being dramatic by shouting,
"It's killed me! It's killed me". I am concerned that his head is laying right where Buckbeak got me.
"Owww... Draco get your fat head off me" I tell him. He doesn't listen, obviously. I feel bad as poor Hagrid comes over trying to tell Draco it is just a cut.

"Hagrid! You have to take them to the hospital wing!" Hermione tells him.
"Right, yeah, i'll take 'em, I'm the teacher" Hagrid exclaims as he lifts Draco.
"I'll carry Anna" Blaise says stepping forward as Crabbe and Goyle grab all our stuff and follow us to the hospital wing.
"Are you alright?" he says as he scoops me up and begins walking to the hospital wing. I nod my head sleepily whilst Draco whines about a "Bloody Chicken". 

I lay in the hospital wing covered by the warm, crisp sheets as the bandage around my abdomen squeezes my wound. Draco is whimpering in the bed next to me, cradling his arm.
"Oh Draco, do shut up" I tell him snappily. He looks at me before his expression softens and he nods and does something Draco Malfoy doesn't do often. He apologised.

"Sorry Anna, are you alright?" he asks me looking a my bandage.
"Yeah, I'm fine, would've been better if your fat head hadn't landed on it" I tell him, holding in a laugh trying not to make my cut hurt anymore. He rolled his eyes at me and continued to whine about his arm.

The doors to the hospital wing crash open as Harry, Ron and Hermione run in.
"Anna! Are you okay?" Ron shouts as the trio come to stand by my bed. Harry and Ron purposefully stand on the opposite side of the bed to where Draco lays on his bed.
"I'm okay Ronnikins" I say teasing him, using the name Fred and George gave him. He sends me a playful glare as Hermione examines the bandage.

"When did Madam Pomfrey say you could leave?" Hermione asks me.
"She can leave now, and so can you Mr Malfoy, go on. Shoo!" She says making a flapping motion. We laugh and I pull on my shirt and robes before heading out giggling with the trio back to the common room, forgetting to say goodbye to Draco and Blaise.
