Dear Journal (or whatever this is),

I saw Draco today.

We, meaning Ron, Hermione, and I, were on our way to our next class when he walked by with several Slytherins. I wasn't staring at him, honest, but then he caught my eyes and it was just silent. It was like we were the only ones in the world, like everyone else was muffled.

Then he looked away and told the others to hurry before they became late for class.

All I could think about for the rest of the day were his silvery-mercury pool-like eyes and how I wanted to get lost in them.

November 15, 1998

I saw him again today.

It was in the library that I saw him. He was by himself, which was unusual, since he and the other Slytherins tended to stick together after the war had ended. He was writing on a piece of parchment, as fast as 'Mione does when she knows what she's writing. There was an intense look of concentration on his face and he looked so immersed in what he was writing.

Is it awkward to think that he looked cute?

November 20, 1998

Why is that whenever I see him or I'm around him, my heart starts to beat faster?

How my heart skips a beat when our hands brush in Potions?

That I get goosebumps all along my arms when he whispers in my ear during Potions?

How I wish I could just tell him how I feel?

That his eyes seem to haunt me in my dreams that are always of him?

How I wish he could love me back?

December 1, 1998

I told him.

December 16, 1998

I told him how I felt.

How my heart beats faster or skips a beat when I see him or when he smiles at me. How his eyes just drag me into the silvery-mercury pools and that I never want to leave. How I got goosebumps all along my arms when he whispered seductively in my ear and then he would nibble on my earlobe.

I told him how I've loved him since fourth year.

How I never stopped loving him.

How I will never stop loving him.

December 25, 1998

He kissed me.

He kissed me.

He.

Kissed.

Me.
