Harry was aimlessly walking around the castle, putting off his 12 inch long essay on the difference between a pepper up potion and a cheer up potion, when Professor Flitwik walked by and told Harry that he better make his way back to Gryffindor tower as it was 5 minutes to curfew. Harry obeyed and walked back in the direction to the common room when all of a sudden he was pulled into a classroom. Harry turned to see who pulled him in and saw that it was the one and only Malfoy. Harry assumed this was going to be some kind of attack and was expecting Malfoy to hex him or punch him. Harry was about to say something when Malfoy took a step closer to Harry and crashed their lips together. Harry had been pining over Malfoy for months. For several weeks he denied his feelings for the arrogant blonde but finally gave into them as they were only growing stronger. Harry couldn't believe it! Draco Malfoy was kissing him! Does that mean Draco likes him back or is this some kind of trick? It was only a few hours ago when the blonde was throwing insults at Harry and his friends. Hoping it was real, Harry kissed back.
The next day, Harry woke up and grinned at the memory of last night. "What are you smiling at?" Ron asked as he attempted to tie his tie. "Nothing, just remembering something." Harry replied innocently. "Whatever you say, mate." Ron said while getting frustrated with his tie. "I can't get this bloody thing right!" Ron yelled in annoyance. "I'm not good at them either. That's why I leave mine tied up. Get Hermione to help you before breakfast." Harry said. "Yeah, I think I will." Ron replied. After Harry and Ron finished getting changed, they headed downstairs into the common room. "What took you so long?" Hermione questioned as the boys approached her. "What'd you mean 'Mione? It's only 7:30! No one really gets to breakfast before 8!" Ron said. "I've been up since 7. I've been re-reading Hogwarts: A History." Hermione said. "What a surprise." Ron joked. Harry laughed. "Hey 'Mione, can you fix my tie for me?" Ron asked with puppy dog eyes. "When will you learn to do it yourself, Ronald?" Hermione sighed and started to tie Ron's tie. The three made there way down to breakfast and were almost at the doors to the Great Hall when Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle walked in front of them. "Hey look, it's Potty and his friends, the weasel and the mud-blood." Malfoy said to his friends laughing. Harry was confused as to why Malfoy was being mean to them. Was last night just a dream? No. It couldn't have been, it was way too real. "How dare you call her that!" Ron yelled at Malfoy and launched himself at him. He tackled Malfoy to the ground and started throwing punches at his face. "Ron! Stop it! It's not worth it!" Hermione screamed while she and Harry tried to pull Ron off him. Crabbe and Goyle just stood there staring in shock. "Ron, stop it!" Harry yelled. "Get off me, Weasel!" Malfoy yelled. "What is going on here?!" Snape bellowed as he walked in on the scene, Ron quickly got off Malfoy. "Potter! Weasley! Detention!" Snape said angrily. Malfoy stood up and brushed off his robes. "What?! Malfoy started it! And Harry had nothing to do with it!" Ron yelled at Snape. "Weasley! Be quiet you stupid boy! Would you like another detention?" Snape asked rudely. "But!-" Ron started and Harry nudged him in the ribs. "No, sir." Ron finished. "Crabbe, Goyle, take Mr Malfoy to the hospital wing," Snape said and then looked at Harry and Ron, "My office, tonight at 8." And then he walked off with a swish of his robes. Harry, Ron and Hermione walked into the Great Hall in silence. They sat down and began to fill their plates. "Ron, you can't let Malfoy get to you like that. Now you've got Harry a detention and he didn't even do anything." Hermione said to Ron. "But Hermione! Malfoy called you a you-know-what! You can't be serious?!" Ron retorted. Hermione and Ron kept bickering and Harry was getting a headache listening to it, so he said he was going to the library but he wasn't even sure if they heard him. Harry got up and left the Great Hall, making his way to the library. He didn't like lying to his friends so he decided to go to the library for real. On his way there, he bumped into someone. Not looking up, he mumbled an apology and went to keep on walking when he heard, "Watch it, Potter." It was Malfoy. Harry looked up and asked, "Why did you insult me and my friends?"
"Why are you so shocked? We didn't become friends overnight."
"We did, didn't we? Remember, last night?"
"Last night? What are you talking about, Potter?"
Harry knew last night wasn't a dream and he also didn't want to believe that it was some kind of sick joke. Maybe Malfoy thought it was fun to mess with Harry's feelings. Make him believe he actually liked him and then pretend like it didn't even happen and break Harry's heart. Yeah, that was probably it. It definetly sounds like a plan evil enough for Malfoy. Harry's heart felt like it was going to burst. He was in so much emotional pain. If this was some kind of joke, Harry didn't want Malfoy to think it had any effect on him. He was about to cry so he just walked straight past Malfoy and once he was out of sight, he ran up to Gryffindor tower to his dorm and cried.
When first lesson came around, Harry wasn't around. Hermione and Ron were in Herbology and confused as to why their friend wasn't with them. "Mr Weasley, where is Mr Potter?" Professor Sprout asked. "I don't know Professor, he was with us at breakfast and then disappeared." Ron answered truthfully. Second lesson came around and then third. It wasn't until fourth lesson that Harry showed up. "Harry where have you been?!" Hermione asked as Harry sat down next to her and Ron in Binns' class. "I was, um, in the hospital wing. I had a massive headache. I told you guys at breakfast." Harry lied. He didn't like lying but he couldn't tell them what happened with Malfoy and he couldn't say he's been in the library that whole time. "I thought you said you were going to the library?" Hermione asked confused. "No, uh, you must've heard wrong. I'm feeling better now anyway, Madam Pomfrey gave me some potion." Harry lied even more. "Oh, okay then." Hermione said, but it didn't look like she was fully convinced.
That night, Malfoy was in his dorm, pacing back and forth. He really likes Harry and he even kissed him last night! Malfoy still couldn't believe he did that. Last night, when Malfoy returned to his dorm, he realised too late that it was a bad idea. Kissing Harry was good, really good, he must admit that. But Malfoy couldn't be in a relationship with a boy! His father would kill him if he found out! Especially when he found out it was Harry freaking Potter that he was dating! It was only then Malfoy realised and so he had to think of a way to get out of that mess. And so he decided on continuing to taunt Harry and his friends, and if Harry questions him about it, he will just act confused and hope that Harry will think it was just a dream. And now the damage was done and he broke Harry's heart. He could see the hurt in Harry's eyes before he walked away. Now Malfoy has got himself in an even bigger mess and he is hurting himself as well as Harry. Malfoy went to bed early that night and thought to himself that he'll decide in the morning whether or not to go talk to Harry. He would tell Harry about his feelings and explain everything to him or he would just leave it and pretend like nothing ever happened. Neither of them sounded good but that was for the morning.
