The leaves were turning, Draco noticed as he stepped from the Hogwarts' Express. It seemed early, but Draco wasn't sure. He hardly remembered how last year had begun, and he hadn't planned on being here this year.

Bowtruckles scampered along the branches above, sending leaves scattering down, blanketing the shoulders of his erstwhile enemy, the Boy Who Still, Somehow, Lived. Draco wouldn't admit that a brief, nearly indecipherable note wrapped around his hawthorn wand -- "thanks for the loan, see you in September?" -- was why he'd returned, but he wondered if maybe, just maybe, this year might be different.

*hugs Draco* I'm sure it will be.

Aw, that was really lovely!

Oh, that is soooo beautiful! :D

LOL! Is it bad that the first time through I completely giggled at Harry's note? Thanks for the loan so I could off Voldypants--see you at school, mate--you're coming back right? Hee! So like Harry!

Otherwise, I just want to snuggle Draco--going back and taking a chance. Yes, yes, of course this year will be different!

Brilliant as always, Lil.

That's SO like Harry. *g*
Lovely, hon!

This year will be very different. *nods* Great job.

Hope you don't mind a personal comment, but I was just telling a friend that I believed that Harry would give Draco his wand back, absolutely.
