As he walked, Harry passed by numerous couples snogging in the hallway and giving each other gifts. Harry was both kinda disgusted and wanting that to happen to him and Draco. Hoping that no one could hear his thoughts, he walked off towards the great lake.

When he arrived, the lake glistened, looking almost like nothing dangerous could be swimming beneath it. Harry sat by the edge, watching the sun start to go down. Suddenly, he was brought back to reality when he saw a tail flick in the water, reminding him of the horrors beneath the beautiful water. With that reminder, he scooted back a few inches, leaving a trail in the dirt.

He looked over at the castle, waiting to see when Draco will arrive. In seconds, he saw Draco's blonde hair start to approach from the distance. Half-panicked, he sprinted behind a large rock and took cover.

At last, Draco arrived next to the lake. Looking at the sunset reflected on the still water, he sat down near the edge, right next to the spot Harry left in the dirt.

Harry sat there a minute, watching the sunset, before remembering his mission. He pulled out his wand and a little note. With a few sparks, the note flew over to be above the lake before growing in size and folding into a swan. It fell gracefully about a few meters from the shore and swam to Draco.

As it swam, it left ripples in the still water, making the event more breathtaking. Once it finally reached the shore, it went towards Draco and lowered its head.

Draco reached out his arm and petted the paper swan on its nose before the swan pushed its face closer, making Draco's hand move to its head. The swan rubbed against Draco's arm like a cat, before shrinking in size and becoming the original note. It fell from a few inches up, into Draco's open palm, releasing a few sparks of gold and red a few times.

Carefully, Draco opened the note. It was completely dry except for a few spots on the corner. Harry made a mental note to himself to practice it so that it can be completely dry the next time. The Gryffindor watched as Draco's eyes moved across the paper, trying to think of where the next location could be.

*Dear Malfoy,

Meet me on the hill closest to a house near one of the oldest places in Hogwarts, where dark and friendly magical creatures live. Be there an hour before the end of the day.

-Your Valentine*

Draco folded the piece of paper back up and got comfy on the ground again. He sat there until the sun completely disappeared, watching in amazement. Harry, of course, stay there out of sight, switching from watching Draco and watching the sunset.

Harry left 10 minutes after Draco finally walked back to the castle.

Harry went to his room to start preparing for 11\. His stomach rumbled, reminding him that he missed dinner. He grabbed a chocolate frog he always kept in case of an emergency and gobbled it down, leaving a few pieces of chocolate on his face.

He attempted to calm his crazy hair with gel, but soon gave up when it looked worse than before. Realizing the time, he grabbed a plate of food that he prepared early in the morning, threw on his invisibility cloak, and ran to the stairs.

At the exit of the castle, he saw Draco checking the time every few seconds, clearly quite nervous about what will soon happen. Trying not to waste too much time staring at Draco being all anxious, Harry took off to find a good hill.

Once he reached a dry spot on a mountain, he took off his cloak and began to lay out a blanket, well out of Draco's sight. After making sure the blanket wouldn't fly off, he set up the cookies in the middle of the Gryffindor colored blanket. He set them up so that there were 4 cookies in a trapezoid with about 10 other cookies winding around the plate like a dragon's body.

Hoping that Draco understood the reference, after all, they were underneath the stars, he put an origami note next to the plate and hid under the invisibility cloak once more.

*Right on time*, he thought when he saw Draco nearing the top of the mountain at exactly 11\. Draco looked around, searching for the person who could of set this all up before noticing the note on the ground.

*Dear Malfoy,

Look behind you.

-Your Valentine*

Before Draco could even turn around, he whispered almost so quiet Harry couldn't hear him, "Potter, you better not jump scare me with your cloak this time."

"C'mon how did you know it was me?"

"Because you're the only one that calls me Malfoy." Draco turned around to see Harry taking off his cloak. "Besides, you're not sneaky at all."

"Yes I am, I'm the sneakiest sneak to ever sneak around."

"Sure you are," Draco smirked.

"So Malfoy, I've never got to ask you, so." Harry cleared his throat nervously. "Will you be my valentine?"

"Of course I will Potter, why do you think I spent this entire day running around Hogwarts. It was a monstrosity, but I loved it."

Harry motioned to the blanket laying on the ground. It was made of cotton and colored red and gold on one side and green and silver on the other.

Draco happily took the green side, sitting right next to Harry on the other side.

They hadn't had time to enjoy the cookies, much less look at them when they heard Mrs. Norris and Filch making their nightly routes around the grounds. Hurriedly, they collected up the cookies and blanket, stuffing a few in their mouth on the way. Harry noticed how Draco ate them quite fast, clearly, he also missed dinner.

As Filch neared their mountain, they threw on the invisibility cloak, trying to huddle close enough together so that he wouldn't see their ankles. For the first time, Harry was kinda glad about the cloak not being able to fit two people underneath it without them standing really close to each other.

Draco's grey eyes shined in the moonlight as they followed Filch as he walked up and down the mountains. With each step, they got tenser as he neared them.

Finally, Filch walked onto the same mountain. Mrs. Norris looked around, searching for someone to get in trouble. Slowly, she walked towards the invisible people, sniffing around. Her paws making almost no sound against the grass.

Harry noticed how much cuter Draco looked when nervous, something he didn't see too often, even though Draco tried to make it seem like he was completely fine. Draco clearly didn't want to have to deal with Filch, especially not today.

Mrs. Norris neared closer, bringing Filch closer too. With each step, he could hear his heartbeat increasing, not knowing if it was because of Filch or Draco.

Out of the blue, Harry leaned closer and kissed Draco full on the lips, in the process, dropping a few cookies on the ground, outside of the cloak. They landed on the grass with a soft thump, but not soft enough to not be noticed. They hurried away from the stray cookies, wishing they had eaten them before this happened.

"Potter I-"

"I figured that if we are going to get caught, I would want to kiss you before the end of the day," Harry told Draco before he got the chance to say anything. Harry checked the pocket watch he borrowed from Ron earlier that day, "Since it is 30 minutes to 12."

Blushing, Draco replied, "Well, it is still technically Valentine's day, how about we go get some proper food together."

"That sounds nice."

Draco tucked the blanket under his shoulder with one arm and grabbed Harry's freezing hand with the other.

As they walked off towards the kitchen, hand in hand, Harry knew that this was a Valentine's Day they could never forget.
