When I got into the Gryffindor common room Hermione was sitting by the fire with Harry and Ginny. I knew I couldn't tell anyone anything because they would think I was crazy. When Ginny asked where I had been I told her I had been in the library doing my potions essay. I did need to work on it but that's not what had been going on. After we kissed he walked me back to near the dormitories holding my hand the entire way. We kissed one last time before I went up the stairs to the portrait of the Fat Lady and said the password.
All I could think about before I went to sleep was how much I enjoyed it. He looked more attractive than usual. His hair was messy and his tie was hanging loosely around his neck. As I was falling asleep I just hoped that I would see him again the next day.
After that night I didn't see Draco for three days. He wasn't at meals and he wasn't lurking in the corridors looking for me. When I walked out of Potions class at the end of the day I was thinking about my essay. I still needed to finish and it was due in two days. As I slowly walked up towards the dormitories I was thinking. I was thinking about Draco and my essay and Ginny and Harry. I 'm pretty sure that they have something secret that they should share also. They seem kind of cuddly.
When I was about to go up the stairs I heard something. When I turned around I saw none other than Draco Malfoy. I smiled as I walked over to him and he gave me a crooked smile that wasn't quite a smirk but it looked adorable on his pale face. He took my hand in his and led me away.
That night we talked about everything and nothing. We talked about simple things like our favorite animal and we also talked about things like our families. The Draco I was getting to know seemed like a whole other person from what I had heard and I liked this Draco. This Draco secretly despised the Death Eaters and just wanted peace. He had a reputation to uphold, but it wasn't one he was proud of.
A few days later in the Gryffindor common room I was sitting with the Weasleys, Harry, and Hermione around the fire. No one was saying anything at the moment and it was nice and calm. "What's been up with Malfoy recently? I haven't seen much of him lately. Usually he does all he can to make me miserable. And, the other day I heard him apologize to someone after he knocked over their books then hurried away." Ron asked curiously.
"Ya I noticed the same thing. He seems quieter. I haven't heard much about him since the first week of classes started." Harry stated while thinking. "Oh well. We'll never figure him out." Hermione said as she sighed.
"You've got that right." George said laughing.
