[HP] A Brief History of Time

When Virginia woke up from her sleep, she was pillowing on Draco's lap. The first thing she entered was the cover of an unreadable book, and then the book was moved away. She faced Draco Clear and bright eyes, above his head, the bright lights from the ceiling cast a warm halo around his silhouette.

"It's almost four o'clock. You've been asleep for almost an hour." Draco glanced at his watch quickly, he closed the book, looked down at her, "Are you still going to sleep?"

Virginia shook her head and sat up a little dizzily.Turning around, I saw Ruby with her tail stretched out and a paw loosely hooking the corner of Bryce's shirt. One person and one cat were also soundly asleep.

"It's raining outside." Virginia frowned, "I hope it won't continue to rain when we get to school." She glanced at her white stockings and beautiful little leather shoes worryingly, "Waterproof Does the spell work with such a heavy rain? Does the restoration spell work on things that have been soaked in water? I find that the restoration is not very effective sometimes."

Draco's originally soft face was unsurprisingly stiff. Throughout the holiday, as long as he and Virginia were together, whether it was mixing potions in Professor Snape's Potions Workshop, or doing one of his When speculating, you can't get overwhelmed by her various magical problems all the time.

"You're already in the second grade, Virginia, and you won't take the boat again." Draco replied evasively. He looked at the rain that was falling harder and harder outside the window, and the train that was gradually slowing down, with a subtle look on his face.

The long blast of the siren woke Blaise up. He squinted his eyes and sat up straight, so Ruby's body slid a little. Two hind legs kicked vigorously, jumped onto Blaise's shoulders, and lay on his head. Ruby's fat body from a holiday pressed Blaise's neck down.

"Oh shit," Blaise pulled it down with his hand, "Is it there? I haven't changed my uniform yet."

"I didn't see the platform." Virginia moved to the window and strained to look at it. "How did it get so dark? Hey! It's only four o'clock."

"Vill!" Draco yanked her hand away from the window. "Sit with me, girl."

Blaise immediately became vigilant, "What happened?" He got up to open the door of the box, "I'll ask the driver."

Draco stopped him, "I think your mother should have heard from the Ministry of Magic by this time. It was Hogwarts' compromise with the Ministry of Magic - Fudge favored the bill two weeks ago - Azka Ben's Wardens will be stationed around Hogwarts."

"Your father also voted for it?" Blaise frowned, "This and the train stopped suddenly... Wait!" He was shocked, "Could it be that those monsters from Azkaban took the same train to Hoag with us? Watts?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "snap", and the lights in the carriage went out.

"They're getting into the car." Draco said quietly, "The box is safe now, we'd better not go anywhere but stay here."

Blaise sat down in his seat silently.

A few seconds passed quietly, and Draco felt Virginia quietly move a few centimeters closer to him, so he reached out and took her hand, holding her in his arms.

Ruby screamed in the dark, his voice was a bit miserable.

"Ruby, come here," Virginia hurriedly lit the wand in her hand and greeted.Ruby grabbed Draco's trousers, jumped onto his lap, and curled up between the two of them.

"I feel more and more cold." Virginia shook her shoulders, stretched out her hand and stroked Ruby's back twice, and asked softly, "What are those monsters you are talking about?"

"Dementors," Draco answered her, his body stiffening suddenly.

Virginia clearly heard the sound of something pulling the door frame outside the door. She stared at the sliding door, feeling her upper and lower teeth trembling with cold, her vision was a bit blurred, and the surrounding air was gradually thinning.She tried to open her eyes wide, and saw wisps of white misty objects running from the tip of Draco's wand, converging in mid-air into a large bird with long legs, it flew towards the sliding door, and flowed through the door like a stream of water. It squeezed out of the crack, and squeezed back after a while. It seemed to be a little smaller, flying round and round in the box.

Virginia sat up straight slowly, looked at it curiously, and finally stretched out her hand slowly. The big, graceful bird bent its long neck, tilted its head and rubbed against the palm of her hand.

A warm current flowed all over Virginia's body along the place where her palms touched, and the biting cold just now disappeared.

The lights in the carriage were turned on again, and the big white bird gradually disappeared into the carriage.

Blaise shook his mouth, and gave Draco a meaningful look, "My mother obviously never considered that you were serious, but, I think she should take a look at your Patronus, so she won't think that we are serious." Always talking big."

"What is a Patronus?"

"It was summoned by the Patronus Charm, it just protected us."

Virginia looked at the tip of Draco's wand regretfully, "It disappeared, did it return to your wand? After coming out again, is it the same as last time?"

"Yes, it will remember you." Draco stared at her.

Virginia was so delighted that she even touched Draco's wand.

A strange feeling came over Blaise. Virginia was a twelve-year-old girl, about to start her second year, and sometimes she wasn't even as mature as a Slytherin first year.He had heard of Draco of the Malfoy family almost since he was very young, the arrogant and domineering young master—but it was so strange, they had hardly met before, when did Draco's character change Influenced by Virginia?

The train moved again.The popularity that seemed to have disappeared after being frozen has been revived.

The door of the box was knocked loudly.

Draco held his wand and opened the door. It was the new prefect of Slytherin. He glanced into the box and asked, "Do you need chocolate?"

"No." Draco replied.

"Excuse me, I will arrive at the school in an hour." The prefect smiled at them and closed the door for them.

"How much more chocolate?" Draco asked.

"I have two unopened boxes here." Virginia handed him.

Draco opened one of the boxes with higher cocoa content, distributed a few to Blaise and Virginia, picked up the rest, stood up and said, "I'll go and see Goyle and Crabbe."

"I'll go too, I want to bring the chocolate to Lettice." Virginia said quickly.

Draco raised his eyebrows and walked out of the box door first.

"Do you know which compartment she is in?" Draco sent her all the way to the place where the train compartments connected. "The front is the ordinary compartment. If you can't find it, come back. I'll wait for you here."

"very quickly."

At this moment the train jerked a little--suddenly every few minutes, especially at the junction of the compartments.Virginia almost lost her footing, but Draco quickly grabbed her shoulders, but the chocolate candies in his hands scattered all over the floor.

"It's okay, I'll pick it up," Draco waved his hand, "Hurry up."

Virginia ran away quickly.

Draco knelt down slowly, and put the chocolates into the box one by one. He didn't seem to remember how many chocolates were left in the box. After picking up the chocolates that fell in front of him, he stood up , Unwrapped one on the spot and stuffed it into his mouth, then walked into a box behind him.

In the shadow extending from the storage cabinet on the connecting platform, a dark paw tremblingly digs at the edge of the gap in the carpet, two exquisitely packaged chocolates rolled out, before the box door rang For a moment, he was poked into the shadows by his paws.

Draco leaned against the door frame of the carriage, his gaze fell on the carpet for a quarter of an hour, and a smile that could easily be ignored appeared on the corner of his lips.

Pansy came out of the box he just came out of, and she stood by the door frame opposite Draco, silently looking at his silhouette, "During the summer vacation, I... father invited you twice, but you didn't come .”

Draco gave a faint "hmm", the smile on his face subsided, "My father alone is enough to represent the Malfoy family."

"Did he... did your father say anything to you when he got home?" Pansy asked tentatively.

Draco suddenly turned his gaze to her, "You said there was a muggle with an unknown father pestering me in school, and her status was lower than Muggle-born wizards? There are other unpleasant things I won't repeat the rumors one by one, you must know it in your heart!"

Pansy replied without hesitation, "This is to care about you, Draco. I know that the agreement between Malfoy and Parkinson does not necessarily count, even if it does, but only from the perspective of being friends who grew up together Let's go, I have to care about you too." Seeing the grand-sounding answer to this question, Pan Xi prepared for a long time.

"You really care too much," Draco said with strong sarcasm in his voice, "don't let me hear your ugly and disgusting words of concern again! As a friend who grew up together, I also remind you Take a look at Pansy, don't make things too ugly, Virginia will enter our circle sooner or later, and everyone will know her details in the future, and lying and making up will not do your reputation any good."

Pansy had tears in her eyes.

Draco gave her a cold look—his friendship for her had been worn away when Parkinson fell foul of Malfoy after the war in his previous life.

Virginia ran briskly from the other end of the corridor, and she only realized the weirdness of the scene when she got closer.She slowed down and looked at the two of them suspiciously.

Draco smiled at her, "Go back and change into your school uniform."

Virginia responded, and didn't look at Pansy any more—she deliberately stood in the middle of the aisle, refusing to budge, so Virginia had to turn sideways and walk past her without even touching her one time.

Draco watched the scene, squinting his eyes without saying a word.

The two entered their box, and Pansy was left alone in the aisle outside the box. She felt even more sad, and finally couldn't help sobbing.

Daphne stretched out her head, glanced at her, then looked at the box where the two disappeared just now, sighed angrily, supported Pan Xi's shoulders, and reluctantly said a few words of useless reassurance.She glanced at her sister sitting in the private box with her shoulders straight, and sighed heavily after a while.
