All eyes seemed to follow Draco to The Gryffindor table. The looks grew heavier and heavier but he let them slide off his damaged ego. These damages in which he tried best to hide under his sleek blonde hair, under his Slytherin robes, and under his outer shell that was slowly altering before him. He attempted to push away his bipolar thoughts and move closer to the person who he believed would balance those thoughts.
"Hey Draco!" Neville greeted him, moving over for him. Draco smiled and sat down on the bench. He didn't put food on his plate. He just sat there and stared ahead. Neville's hand found its way onto Draco's thigh and inched up to where his hands were folded together.
"Hmm?" Draco mumbled.
"How did it go?" Neville asked, concerned and curious. Draco nodded and put some food on his plate. "That is not an answer Draco," the Gryffindor stated.
"Ok, um, when Blaise gives me a signal...we are going to eat over there for a bit, ok?" Draco whispered to him quickly. Neville slowly turned around to look over at the Slytherin table. His eyes widen, he turned back, and directed his attention back at Draco.
"We are going over there?" Neville questioned, glancing at the table again.
"Um, yes, if things settle down or something," Draco answered.
"Settle down?" Neville asked," What do you-" he began.
"Just, relax Nev," Draco interrupted him.
"You realize we are all still here right?" Fred reminded the couple. Neville blushed.  Hermione laughed, making her feel a little better than her earlier mood.
"Nev?" George said with an eyebrow raised.
"First day, and you are already makin' nick names Malfoy?" Fred chuckled.
"Oh shut up," Draco told them, joking for once while directing that phrase at them.
"It's cute," Ginny commented, overhearing the end of the conversation. She just entered The Great Hall and stared at Fred till he made room for her to sit next to Hermione.
"Hi," Hermione said.
"Ello love," Ginny replied, followed by a peck on her cheek. Hermione blushed and played with her food. Ron simply stared at them with confusion.
"So, you two, yeah?" he asked.
Ginny looked at Hermione and replied," Yeah, we are." Hermione finally felt reassured and a smile spread across her face. Seamus and Dean were hardly paying attention to what everyone else was doing or saying, they were too busy playing footsie under the table.

"You can't be serious," Pansy said.
"I am completely serious actually," Blaise replied," They are going to come over here and you are all going to try not to be prats for once."
"Great way to talk to your mates," Crabbe commented.
"Yeah, and great way to treat your friend," Blaise snapped at him.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Goyle asked stupidly.
"It means that you have all been acting rubbish towards Draco," he explained, "And so was I... till now."
"No, I've just been actin' like that because of Neville," Crabbe told him, he was acting like that was completely different.
"He is with Neville now, so that is being rubbish towards Draco, why don't you understand this?" Blaise replied, his face in his palm. Pansy rolled her eyes. It was clear that she wanted nothing to do with the Gryffindor.
"I don't get it," she stated," Why him? Why not someone, I don't know... better."
"What? Like you Pansy?" Blaise questioned.
Pansy blushed, and mumbled, "No," cringing up her face in anger.
"So is that why you are so mad about this, are you jealous?" he asked. She didn't answer, everyone around them grew quiet.
"Listen, can you all just at least tolerate him and their relationship? Please? I know that is hard, but just try. If you call Draco your friend then you should be able to do this," Blaise said as calm and clear as possible.
"Fine," they all agreed. Blaise nodded his head to Draco who had been waiting for a signal. He got up, and held his hand out for Neville.
"Well, wish us luck," Neville said nervously.
"Good luck mate," Fred told him.
"Yeah, you are goin' need it," George added. The couple walked over to the Slytherin table, those heavy glares following them again.
This is a filler chapter, nothing really happens, but it is needed for later. Foreshadowing and such.
