So, I've got classes starting next week, and I'm taking a lot of them, so updates might be kinda sparse. Hang in there though, cuz I will do them, when I can.
So I thought that I could've ended it after chapter 2, but I kinda wanted to do this part, so here it is.

If there was one thing Draco hated more than Muggles, Muggleborns, or Blood Traitors, it was Harry Potter. The 'Boy-Who-Lived' had been a thorn in Draco's side ever since he had snubbed him and made friends with the wrong crowd. He had signed his death certificate that day and Draco had made it his sole duty to make sure the boy remembered it.
Of course, it all hadn't been smooth sailing for him either; Potter was as sly as they came and always seemed to have everyone one his side; he could do no wrong in any of the teachers' eyes. Only Professor Snape saw Potter for what he really was.
But Draco wouldn't dwell on that right now, oh no; he wanted to know what was going on between Potter and his Weasel. He could see them always whispering closely to each other; in the hallways, in class, and even when they were eating in the Great Hall!
Draco wasn't one to let things get to him; he usually caused others to worry about what he was doing, because he was that important.
But he had the sneaking suspicion that Potter and the Weasel were plotting something; and if they were going to break more school rules – which they often did – he wanted to be the one to catch them; then they'd have to get in trouble this time. And if he could somehow get that no-good Granger caught too, there'd be three less problems for him to worry about.
Now, he just had to find out what they were doing…
…
Harry was happy – which was an emotion he didn't feel too often, what with a homicidal Dark Lord constantly trying to kill him.
But no, for the moment being, he was happy. He had let himself be swept up and away in his romantic relationship with none-other than his best friend, Ron Weasley. Harry could almost forget that he was hated, envied, and pitied by most of his peers; he could almost pretend to be a regular student instead of 'The Boy Who Lived'. And with Hermione to help him with classes and keeping his and Ron's relationship a secret, he felt like he was finally able to relax.
He felt that not even Volde- correction, He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named – could bother him now.
Currently, our three favorite Hogwarts students were sitting outside by the school lake, as were many more students; Harry enjoyed days like this. No one watching him, talking about him; he was, for once, another face in the crowd. Or, at least as much as he could.
He and Ron were sitting next to each other, talking about how Seamus had managed to make a book explode in one of their classes while Hermione shook her head at them. The three shared a laugh, not noticing a hateful glare directed their way.
"Oi, Hermione, can you-"
"Go," she said, waving her hand at them. "I know what to do."
Giving her matching grins, the two young men got up and hurried into the castle, their robes billowing behind them in their haste.
They didn't look back to see who could be possibly following them.
…
Draco saw them skirt around corners and through a tapestry that he never knew held a secret passage; his only downfall of following them was that they were quite quick at being sneaky. He was always a few steps behind them and always seemed to barely miss them.
Up stairs, down stairs, sideways and over two revolving staircases, Draco finally felt like he had caught up to them.
But then they were gone.
There were no doors in this hallway for them to go through; nothing but stretches of wall that ended in two openings of hallway, one of which he stood at.
Running his hands over the walls, he didn't see nor feel any type of secret hidden entrance to something.
So where had they gone?
…
Harry couldn't stifle his laughter as he and Ron watched Draco pace around the hallway a few more times before storming off, a look of utter distaste on his face. They had made the Room of Requirement have a one-way mirror; they could see out, but no one could see in.
Perfect for watching one of your worst enemies through a fit at the loss of you.
"I can't believe he actually thought he could catch us," Ron said as he stood behind Harry, his arms around the raven-haired teen's waist. "No one knows Hogwarts as well as you do Mate. Except Fred and George of course."
"Of course," Harry laughed, watching as the mirror vanished; turning to Ron, he grinned. "Now, are we going to keep talking about Malfoy or…?"
"Or. Definitely 'or'." They moved in to kiss each other then, forgetting that they were supposed to be in classes all afternoon.
…
Hermione was shaking her head as they came down for dinner.
"All afternoon?" she whispered, teeth clenched in frustration. "I should not let you two even look at my notes after this!"
"Hermione," Harry said quietly, leaning closer to the bushy-haired brunette, "What if it was Viktor? Hmm?"
"Oh shush you," she said, blushing a bit and looking down.
"Oi, you still talk to that duck-footed Bulgarian?" Ron asked, making her blush even more before she flicked her wand, making potatoes land in his hair.
"Shush. I'm done talking about this with you two! What if we talked about what you two have been up to, hmm?" They all laughed then, matching blushes spreading across all three faces.
…
Draco followed as close as he dared to get as they all left the Great Hall from dinner. He saw the two boys give Hermione a wave and turn down a different staircase than the one that led to their Common Room. He hurried to catch up with them, seeing them duck behind a door pretending to be a wall.
But once again, when he opened the door, they were gone.
While, on the other side of the door, in a hidden alcove, Harry and Ron were greedily kissing each other once, twice, three more times, before running off to their Common Room, laughing about how they had outwitted Draco once again.
…
I just wanted to write Draco being a pissed off little bitch in this story, so that's why it was mainly about him trying to catch them.
I might end it here though. I'm not sure.
Thanks for reading though!
