Pansy and Blaise were with him and had loaded their trunks onto the carriage. They were too far away to hear, but Harry still saw when Draco rolled his eyes and grabbed Pansy’s wrist. He yanked her forwards and placed her flat palm against the neck of the Thestral. She let out a shrill shriek and struggled to yank away, but Draco held her fast. The Thestral didn’t react other than to blink curiously at her. Finally, Pansy relaxed a little, and reluctantly scratched at the beast's neck.
