After the battle, everyone from Harry's year was allowed to return to have words to pursue their studies. The golden trio, some more Gryffindors, almost all the Ravenclaws, a few Hufflepuffs and more than expected Slytherins came.
A particular blonde, Harry didn't expect to come, also came. Harry noticed many changes in the blonde's personality. His hair was tousled in a sexy way rather than properly combed back as usual. His eyes were narrowed a bit more and his mercury gaze was scanning the Great Hall from under his more-than-enough long eyelashes. In place of his usual sneer, a genuine smile was playing on his lips. Harry wondered if anyone else was also eyeing the blonde. He made check around but no one seemed to notice Draco. All the Hufflepuffs were scared to death from Draco, as he used to torment them very much for their emotions. In general all the Hufflepuffs hated Draco. The same was with Ravenclaws. But they never got enough time to show their hatred towards him as they were always buried into the depths of their books. A look on Gryffindor table told Harry that he was the only one who was even thinking about the Slytherin. Hermione was busy in reading her Hogwarts:A history new edition. Room was busy in shoving as much food in his mouth as he can. Dean and Seamus were cuddling and holding hands. Over the holidays they both had come out about their relationship to their families. They were the only reason, why Harry had any hope of getting together with Draco.
Draco. He remembered. His gaze turned to Draco. Once again. Once a reason of secret admiration, those blonde hairs and gray eyes were now Harry's weakness. Suddenly, Draco looked at Harry. And both their eyes locked. This time Harry didn't carry the hatred in his eyes that he was expected to show for the Slytherin Ice-Prince. And neither did Draco felt the hatred that he used to feel in their first year together. They both were staring at each other with eyes filled with-what? Liking? Love? Or just lust? Neither of them knew. Just the way Harry was swimming in the mercury-silver pool of Draco's eyes, Draco was also lost in the green first of Harry's eyes.
They both were brought back to reality when McG (a/n- McG. Is short for McGonagall. It's annoying to write it again and again. It's looooong.) cleared her throat and came forward for some kind of announcements. Meanwhile both the boys tore apart their gazes from each other, but not before noticing a blush on each other's face.
"Another year started and we all expect a good year since the last few years cannot be counted as one. Now, I'm going to announce the Head Boys and Head Girls, after that the first years waiting in the entrance Hall will be sorted and then only shall we dig into our food."
She stepped down from the platform and came in front of everyone.
"Attention please! We will be having two head boys and two head girls this year. Head boys and head girls will be having a separate dormitory and boys and girls will have to share a room.
Now to start with we have Harry Potter from Gryffindor, Draco Malfoy from Slytherin, Hermione Granger from Gryffindor and last but not the least Pansy Parkinson from Slytherin. Now I would request the four of you you to come in front of all our students."
Everyone stop congratulated them and let them go. They all went and stood on the platform. Batches of head boys and head girls were handed to them. Everyone cheered and applauded.
Now McG stepped forward and placed the sorting hat on the stool. Slowly a mouth appeared near the rim of the hat and it began:
Oh, you may not think I'm pretty,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
Your top hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I can cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.
You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
And unafraid of toil;
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
If you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folk use any means
To achieve their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!
The sorting hat finished it's song and the ceremony started. McG started calling the names of the students, the student would come forward, sit on the stool with hat over his head and get sorted. Gryffindor got 15; Hufflepuff got 10; Ravenclaw got 5[quite witty people] and Slytherin got just 3. With that the sorting ceremony ended.
"Now let's begin the feast."
Both Hermione and Pansy returned back to their house tables with a blush, noticed only by the Head Boys. After a moment, Harry stopped and blurted:
"Congratulations Drac-um-Malfoy."
'Fuck' Harry thought to himself. Why he had to call Malfoy by his first name in front of him?
But all his thoughts were interrupted when Draco blurted:
"Congratulations to you too, Harry!" and walked towards the Slytherin table without glancing back as if nothing happened.
'Merlin! Draco called him Harry? Really?' Harry thought to himself. With that Harry headed towards his own table. In a few minutes dessert appeared. All the four Head Boys and Head Girls got a note from McG just as the feast was about to finish.
You are to reach at 7th floor after the feast. Head Boys and Head Girls will be having separate dorms. Head boys will be having one room and Head girls will be having another room. Don't worry of your things. They are already placed in your shared rooms. All the best.
McGonagall
After the feast finished they sang the Hogwarts song. After that Harry, Draco, Hermione and Pansy left together for the 7th floor
