"Harry, Malfoy and I bumped into each other in the summer. We became friends really, I think we were both lonely and it was nice. He was nice. When we got to Hogwarts and I was put in Slytherin it made it easier for everyone to accept we were friends now because it looked quite obvious given the proximity, but the foundation was already there. I think we liked each other really since the summer, before Hogwarts. It’s actually more complicated than I can even imagine, but he’s certain he can’t be the future I need but has never explained to me why.’
