A/N: I HAVE NOT ABANDONED THIS STORY! It is simply on hiatus until I get my lazy ass in order now that I'm on summer vacation.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything, everything except the plot belongs to the always wonderful J.K Rowling.

(RE-DONE!) (As of 6/21/2012)

Harry Potter had just arrived at platform 9 and ¾'s and was approaching the Hogwarts express, carrying his school trunk and a very annoyed Hedwig in her cage. He was trying to get through the crowd of students, with no such luck.

"Wotcher, Harry!" He heard Neville, his fellow Gryffindor, yell across the crowd. Harry smiled and waved in response. After saying hello to a couple more of his friends Harry finally got past the crowd and spotted Ron and Hermione over by the rest of the Weasley family.

"Harry! Good to see you!" Mrs. Weasley proclaimed as she hugged him.

"My, you need to eat! I can wrap my arms completely around your waist!" She exclaimed, checking him all over, looking for some sort of 'injury'.

"I'm fine, really, Mrs. Weasley," Harry said reassuringly, trying to get away from her grasp.

"Hey Harry, sorry 'bout that..." Ron mumbled the greeting quietly so his mother wouldn't hear.

"How was your summer Harry?" Hermione asked as she gave him a quick hug.

"It was alright I guess. The Dursley's were away on vacation for most of it, so I had the house to myself for a while." Harry replied.

"We should probably find a compartment before there all full." Ron said nodding over to the train.

"Right." Harry agreed as he put his trunk with the others. He had been trying to avoid the train as much as possible, not that he wasn't excited to be going back to Hogwarts, it was just that he didn't want to run into Draco. Harry had been having rather pleasurable dreams about the Slytherin ALL summer long. The last thing he wanted to do was see him, or talk to him, he might lose all his self control and pounce him then and there. But, with a quick look around, Harry decided it was safe to get on the train with his friends.

Draco hadn't had a terrible summer, per say. Shopping with his Mother; Dinners with important people from the ministry, (Future job opportunities, his father had told him). Having Pansy, Crabbe and Goyle all over for tea once in a while, and- oh bloody hell. Draco must have had the most boring summer ever in wizard history. The only fun Draco had was when he was asleep, dreaming about Harry, his tan chest, beautiful green eyes, and his amazing c- uh, erm, well, we'll talk more about that later.

"Crabbe, Goyle, hurry up!" Draco yelled, trying to get on the train as fast as possible so he wouldn't have to run into H-, You know who. His two friends were lagging behind him acting as if they had just run a marathon. At the pace Draco was going you would think he was in one. After yelling at a little first year to, well, Sod off, Draco finally got past the crowd of annoying parents and students and made it to the train, with no Harry in sight. 'Good,' Draco thought before getting on the train and going to look for an empty compartment. They found one, and Pansy, fairly quickly and got comfortable for the long ride.

"Has the snack cart come 'round yet?" Crabbe asked Pansy as his stomach growled.

"No, not yet. It should be here soon though." She said reassuringly,

"Draco?" Pansy turned to him with a curious look.

"Yes?" Draco asked.

"Aren't you supposed to be doing your prefect rounds at noon?" She questioned.

"Oh, yeah, I forgot." Draco replied as he checked his watch,

'11:55. Damn.' He thought.

Draco made his way out of the compartment, and started walking toward the back of the train. He noticed how stormy it was out. It was raining. Draco loved the rain. It smelled so fresh and sweet; similar to a certain Gryffindor. Draco had just started to fantasize about him and Harry in the rain when-

"Ron, I still don't see why I have to come with you. I'm not even a prefect!" Harry said exasperated. Ron had practically dragged him out of their compartment to 'keep him company' while on his prefect duties.

"I know, but it's just so boring walking around. I'd bring Hermione, but she would just nag me about the N.E.W.T.'s and how I should already be studying for them."

Harry sighed, and agreed. They started to talk about this year's Quidditch season when-

"Omphf! Watch where you're bloody-" Draco stopped short when he realized WHO had just walked into. A faint blush spread across his cheeks.

Harry also realized who the person he had just bumped into was.

"D- Malfoy," Harry turned pink as his voice sounded slightly high pitched.

"Erm," Was all Draco could get out. Seeing those vibrant green eyes look at Draco's made him have butterflies in his stomach.

Both boys just looked at their feet, leaving Ron curious, and very confused.

Draco finally got up the courage to speak.

"Uh, I have to go." He said and walked away as quickly as possible.

Harry continued to walk and when Ron caught up with him he spoke,

"What happened back there, mate? You and Malfoy are usually at each other's throats!"

Harry shrugged, "I, I don't know." He said and kept walking.

Then he realized that the blond had also been blushing. 'But, why?' The brunette pondered.

'Why was Potter blushing too? Could he...? Nah,' Draco thought as he went off and did his prefect rounds towards the back of the train.

Soon, the students arrived at Hogwarts and made their way up to their dormitories to unpack and get ready for the starting ceremony. Harry was currently sitting in the Gryffindor common room looking out the window, watching the storm clouds pass by.

'Stormy. Just like Draco's eyes.' He thought.

"Harry?" Hermione asked as she quietly sat next to him, worry written on her face.

"Hm? Oh, hey, Hermione." Harry replied, trying to rid more thoughts of Draco.

"Harry, are you ok? You seem very," The bushy haired girl paused looking for the right word, "distant." She finished tentatively.

"Oh, yeah I'm, I'm fine. Starving, actually, shall we go?" Harry asked, trying to change the subject.

"Sure." Hermione replied with a small smile.

"But, Harry, you know you can tell us anything that's on your mind, right?" She and Ron gave each other looks and then looked at Harry.

"Of course," Harry smiled as he went out the portrait hole, his two friends behind him.

When the trio arrived for dinner, most of the students were already seated at their designated tables. They found their spot at the Gryffindor table amongst their friends and their plates appeared. As Harry filled his plate with food he glanced up and found Draco staring at him from across the room. They both blushed and looked away.

'This is going to be an interesting term,' They both thought and went back to their meals.
