What does this mean? This is him reaching out, Hermione just told him earlier that the owl goes both ways. Well I didn't bloody expect it to come this way. At Hogwarts, they had become unlikely friends during that last year. Spending most nights studying for NEWTS in the library, sharing literature, and eventually they even started hanging out on the weekends. Towards the end of the year, there was a small feeling between them of finality, that their peace was made and they would go their separate ways. This didn't make it hurt any less, even though they didn't mean it they still promised to write. She has not seen or heard from Draco Malfoy since that day on the train platform.
