Draco Malfoy

You and Draco Malfoy had only met by chance in some classes; you were very different from each other, you were both in different houses, and you had completely different lives.

One afternoon in Snape's Potions class, each student was randomly assigned a partner. No one complained, not wanting to challenge Professor Snape's authority. You were paired with Draco Malfoy, and you could feel his gaze from across the room. You had to gather your things and change seats, just like your classmates. Your head filled with fear, recalling the things you'd heard about him: he was called 'cruel,' 'heartless,' and many other things that raced through your mind.

Hello... You probably know who I am, but I'll introduce myself anyway, I'm Draco Malfoy. He extended his hand with a courtesy that took you by surprise; he was being kind, and perhaps making two scrolls about the side effects of potions with him wasn't such a bad idea.
