Chapter 2

Harry had had enough; he got up and left the potions class.

"Get back here Potter!" bellowed Snape.

Harry ran through the maze of corridors, he could hear Snape as he ran, but he wasn't worried, he was going somewhere where no one could find him, the Room of Requirement.

Harry ran around one last corner, coming to a wall where the Room of Requirement's doors would appear.

"I need some place to get away" he breathed

"I need some place to get away" he repeated

"There you are Pot-" but before Snape could finish his sentence the doors appeared and Harry was gone.

As Harry entered the Room of Requirement he noticed someone standing in the corner, it was Draco.

"Draco?"

"..."

Harry moved forwards and put one arm around Draco's shoulders.

"Draco, are you alright?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine" said Draco

"Ok, well-"

Draco turned to face Harry.

"Harry?"

"Yeah?"

"Did you enjoy the other night?"

"Yeah... I did"

"Me too" said Draco tenderly.

Harry felt Draco's arms intertwine around him, pulling him closer, they kissed.

Reluctantly Harry pulled away

"We have class"

Draco sighed "Alright..."

Harry kissed Draco one last time and headed for the door.

The corridor was busy outside the Room of Requirement so no one noticed Draco slip a piece of parchment into Harry's hand, except for the person hidden by the shadows. Harry turned and looked at Draco one last time, then walked away.

-

"What's that?" asked Hermione, suspiciously eyeing the piece of parchment in Harry's hand.

"Oh, er, nothing..." replied Harry. Carefully he opened the piece of parchment, it read:

Harry,

Tonight, Midnight – Astronomy tower.

- D

The parchment fell to the floor. Quickly, Harry scrambled to pick it up, not noticing that the shadow was still watching – waiting.

-

Harry made his way down the stairs to the common room. It was almost time. He had his invisibility coat in one hand and the piece of parchment in the other. Harry slung the cloak over himself, not noticing the now scrunched piece of parchment lying on the cold stone.

As Harry left the common room, the shadow who had been watching, picked up the note and followed.
