Going Home to Hell

Coming off the train from his fourth year at Hogwarts was relief and panic for Harry.

Relief that he would have a break from all the magical mysteries and trouble that always followed him at Hogwarts, and the guilt of the murder of Cedric Diggory.

Panic at the psychopathic muggle family that was waiting to take him to his summer Hell. They were a few steps behind the oddly dressed Weasley Clan glaring at him and everyone else who came off the platform.

Figures.

Harry stopped a little ways from the train entrance as Ron came up behind him while Hermione rushed past them toward her family, barely mumbling a goodbye to either him or Ron. Harry raised an eyebrow at her odd behavior while Ron let out a small sigh and mumbled something about girls before coming up next to him and clasping him on the shoulder.

"All right there, mate?" He asked while sending threatening and dark looks at the Dursleys, who glared right back at him.

He was not the only one though, as the Weasley twins seemed to be permeating dark looks through their twin gazes as they walked with Ginny towards their family. They achieved a response when Vernon and Petunia stiffened their backs and Dudley let out a small whimper as he attempted to hide behind his mother.

"I'm okay." He whispered back with a small smile. He enjoyed the protectiveness of the three Weasleys', imagining it to be how brothers would act.

Looking back at the Dursleys, he winced as Vernon began giving him dark looks. He knew he was already in for a beating, so he didn't stop the mischievous smile that flew across his face in response to his uncle's mean glances. Vernon's face became pinched and Harry looked away after that, slightly regretting his Gryffindor actions.

They both started towards their families, Harry going as slow as possible to put off the inevitable. Ron walked with him in support and began whispering frantically in his best friend's ear. Ron really wanted to make up for his idiocy this year, and he was going to start by being a better friend to Harry.

"Even though Dumbledore keeps saying that we're exaggerating, the twins and I know what we saw that summer. If anything happens, owl ASAP and we'll pick you up as soon as we get the letter. The twins and I don't care that Dumbledore has forbid us to go there again." Harry smiled adoringly at his best friend, making Ron blush slightly at the attention, but still look stern.

The twins and Ron had dragged him to the headmaster's office two days before they left to demand that he come home with them. Unfortunately, they had done the same the last two years and were quite frustrated with their 'all-knowing' Headmaster.

It was the third time they had explained what they had witnessed the summer before Harry's second year, but Dumbledore kept waving them off with a smile and an explanation. In the end, Harry was still going back to his family and the Weasley brothers were forbidden to go anywhere near The Dursley's house.

"I'll be fine Ron, I doubt anything will happen." He said reassuringly, letting the lie roll smoothly off his tongue. Regardless of what people thought, Harry did know how to lie through his teeth.

After all, he was supposed to be in Slytherin.

Ron looked at him with an intent look on his face, but let the conversation go in an effort to make the atmosphere a little less tense. They both stopped next to the rest of the Weasley family and Ron pulled his friend into a brief hug before he stepped back muttering about 'idiot headmasters'.

Harry smirked in agreement before turning to say bye to the rest of Ron's family. The twins ran up giving him a duo hug and performing a bad impression of upset siblings.

"We'll miss you Potter!" Fred wailed.

"It won't be the same Harry!" George continued, shaking him a little.

"We're lost without you! They both finished, still fake crying and crushing him between them.

Harry blushed as people began to stare and Mrs. Weasley started reprimanding her sons, but he didn't let go from the hug. They both stopped suddenly and stared at him seriously.

"Owl if you need us, with the money you gave us we could start a joke shop and make your family 'disappear'." Fred muttered while George nodded his agreement, a solemn look in both of their eyes, before they turned back to their family and jokingly pinched Percy's cheek at his annoyed look.

Strangely, Harry didn't think they were kidding.

Mrs. Weasley gave him a big hug before Harry said goodbye to the rest of them and watched them walk away into the crowd. Ron kept looking back at him, so Harry waved at him reassuringly before turning to his own 'family'.

"Boy, why were they all glaring at us. What did you tell them?" His uncle muttered angrily, while his aunt looked around fearfully and tried to calm Dudley down.

"I didn't say anything; they are just upset about the bars they saw on my window a couple of summers ago, nothing else." He told his uncle, who started to look a little purple in the face.

Harry didn't resist when his uncle reached out a meaty arm and pulled him like a rag doll to stand in front of him. He kept silent while bowing his head in a submissive gesture; he might as well not provoke his uncle any further.

Vernon let a look of satisfaction spread across his face then spun his nephew around roughly to face the platform entrance and the families surrounding.

"Look up!" Harry's Uncle murmured in a commanding tone, while giving an appreciative smile at his wife and son when they attempted to block out any unwanted onlookers. Petunia gave a shaky smile back, but looked away just as quickly, keeping to her favorite motto 'Out of Sight, Out of Mind'.

Harry looked up slowly, a frown appearing on his face when he noticed his aunt and cousin trying to cover up for his uncle. So much for thinking he had any help from his other two relatives.

Turning straight forward, Harry almost smiled at the irony of staring straight at the Malfoy Family. They were considered a dark uncaring family, but here they were, exchanging affectionate smiles and greetings with each other while Harry was actually the one with ill-intentioned relatives.

"Take a good look freak! It is going to be the last time you ever lay eyes on this abhorrent place. You can only hope you die before the end of the month." Vernon whispered roughly into his ear. Harry could almost imagine the gleeful smile on his uncle's face, causing his stomach to turn slightly.

Harry let his unpleasant thoughts drift away as he was suddenly the object of three gazes. A shiver ripped violently through his body and Vernon let out a chuckle, thinking it was in response to his speech.

Unfortunately for his uncle, Harry was more freaked out by the two, almost inhuman gazes of Lucius and Draco Malfoy. He knew Draco Malfoy had rather interesting silver eyes, but when put next to his father's dark gleaming eyes they looked unnatural. Just what the hell were the Malfoys' and why had he never noticed the strange aura that surrounded them.

The family was talking to each other quietly, keeping their eyes firmly on him and his relatives. He wondered if the two Malfoy's had heard what his uncle had said, and thinking about it a little more, he hoped they hadn't. In any case, they were whispering to Narcissus Malfoy, who kept sending looks towards him.

Even if Dumbledore refused to believe his predicament, Draco could use this as blackmail material or even just something to taunt him about later next year.

'If I make it back next year' He thought grimly to himself, hoping his uncle was exaggerating earlier.

"…They won't know what hit them when one of their own disappears, one less in my opinion …" Vernon continued muttering to him. Harry rolled his eyes in exasperation, he may be afraid of his uncle's ability to physically damage him, but verbally the guy just drove him nuts.

Looking up once more, he noticed Draco had stopped talking to his parents and seemed to be raising his eyebrow at Harry's actions…as if …he knew what Vernon was saying to him.

'Well I'll be damned, the Malfoys aren't human' He thought to himself in slight amusement.

Somehow Harry was not surprised.

His uncle still had him pinned in one spot, but had turned his rant towards his wife and son. Like always, the both of them were agreeing with everything Vernon was saying.

Harry rolled his eyes again, letting out a small sigh of annoyance before a small smile form on his face. He was going to test a theory on the Malfoys.

"I don't know if you can hear me, but….don't try to interfere with them. Their completely of their rockers," Harry smirked for the first time in a long while, he spoke as soft as he could, barely opening his mouth. "No need to worry, despite what he is saying, my aunt would not let her husband kill me, I'll just be in a lot of pain." He finished.

Harry was astonished to see Draco and Lucius nod, and after a few words were spoken, Narcissa nodded as well. If Harry wasn't surprised before, he was now. He thought he was imagining Draco and Lucius being attentive to what his uncle was saying earlier.

Even if it was weird, Harry couldn't help the small smile that flew across his face at the acknowledgment they had given him. Lucius Malfoy raised an eyebrow but let a small smirk fly across his face, while Narcissa Malfoy turned away at being caught in a nice moment.

Draco Malfoy though was staring very intently at him, and Harry blinked as his stomach fluttered and twisted. That was the same feeling he had had for Cho Chang at the beginning of the year, just more intense. He really didn't want to think on what that meant.

His observation unfortunately was interrupted by a cuff to his neck, and his uncle yanking on his arm. He had shrunk his trunk before he got off the train, deciding he would rather live off his fat cousins clothes than chance his trunk being taken away by his uncle. He was glad he sent Hedwig to meet him at the house or else she would have been left on the platform out of spite.

As he was forcefully dragged away, tripping and being pushed into oncoming objects, he never lost sight of the Malfoys. Even though the summer was going to be long and painful he couldn't help the smile and the feeling of flattery when Draco Malfoy, his school nemesis and rival that had hated him since he was 11, looked pissed and on the verge of committing mass murder.

For him.
