AN: Hi! This is a story that came to my head the other day that I am now absolutely addicted to. Please help me when I ask later. Review and stuff. Enjoy!

Chapter One

The First Step

Harry Potter wondered if anyone would ever call him a princess. Lately, he had had this obsession with romances: Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, Snow White, The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Romeo and Juliet, Aladdin, Pocahontas, Mulan, Alice in Wonderland (though it may not count), The Princess and the frog, Gone With the Wind, Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Wuthering Heights, Phantom of the Opera, The Tale of Genji, Scarlet Pimpernel, The Philadelphia Story, Casablanca, It Happened One Night, The Apartment, Brief Encounter, Roman Holiday, Harold and Maude, The Way We Were, The Scarlet Letter, Titanic, Lady and the Tramp, Twilight, High School Musical, The Hunger Games, Enchanted, The Immortals, Looking for Alaska, etc. Over the summer, Hermione became increasingly worried about him the longer he spent on the subject.

Sitting on the train now, with his two friends off performing their Prefect duties, his mind turned again to the subject. Harry was certain he was the princess because, after all, the prince was never in peril and with Voldemort back, he was definitely in peril. Harry hadn't quite had his fill of romantic literature and films but he had moved his focus on to love songs. He was sitting, looking out the window with Taylor Swift blasting in his ears while he clutched a book of Shakespearian tragedies to his chest.

He was in peril. Voldemort was the evil villain like Cruella Devil or Jafar. Harry was musing over how 101 Dalmatians was not a romance when a hand waved in front of his face. Harry turned off his iPod but kept in his earbuds as he turned see his visitor. "Can you hear me now Potter?" Malfoy was staring at him, framed by the doorway to the compartment. Harry was musing about how it made Malfoy look like a portrait. "What is that anyway Potter?" Harry smiled slightly.

"It's called an iPod. It's a muggle device for listening to music." Malfoy moved to sit across from Harry as the Boy-Who-Lived took out his earbuds.

"Really?" Draco wasn't accompanied by his bodyguards today, which was odd for him. Harry was wondering if Malfoy was really an evil villain or if he was a misunderstood prince when Malfoy talked again. "What are you doing alone Potter? You're always surrounded by friends."

"I could say the same about you Malfoy." Malfoy scowled but quickly hid the reaction. Harry realized then that Malfoy was very good at emotional masks.

"I asked you first."

"I'm not their keeper Malfoy. They can do as they wish." A crease appeared in between Malfoy's eyebrows.

"Is that Shakespeare, Potter?"

"Yes."

"Expanding your literature experience?" Malfoy didn't wait for an answer as he stood. He paused in the doorway. "Goodbye Potter." He walked out, slipping away, the only hint that he had even been there being the slight trace of his scent. Harry sighed and opened his book. He believed Hamlet had been saying something about sleeping… Luna plopped down beside him. Harry closed his book with a sigh.

"Hello Harry. The wrackspurts don't seem terribly attracted to you at the moment."

"What are wrackspurts?"

"They go into your head and make your brain go all fuzzy." Harry went back to his love songs, content for the moment, in being a teenager.

So what do you think? Sadly, I Googled a lot of those books and movies (or at least a fair chunk). Some of them literally pained me to put on here. *cough*Twilight*cough*High School Musical*cough* Soooo….. I need your help. I need:

1) Romance books/plays/movies/songs (preferably not mainstream)/poetry

2) I need non-HP ships for Harry to go into rants about.

3) I need ideas on fairytale elements to help plug into the story line.

Please please please help me with this! I need all the help I can get! If you help me with the above, please be specific because there is no guarantee that I know what you're talking about. I kind of have an idea about where I want to go with this but that doesn't mean you guys can't help me come up with something better. I'm going to try to right as much of this as I can but I need you, as a reader, to help me find the plot. I'm so excited! Thank you so much for reading and I hope you like this as much as I do.
