Chapter 10: Mistakes
Draco stared and stared. He was wearing the necklace. The necklace Draco bought! A smile formed on his lips never taking his eyes off the necklace Draco spoke,
"Nice locket, when you get that?"
"O…I just got it…from…" Glancing up Draco saw Harry blush smiling more Draco waited, "From my secret admire."
"Really? So has he or she revealed themselves?" Draco mentally smirked.
"Not yet but…" Draco hoped he didn't pale, "But they did leave a clue. I was just on my way to see who I think it was."
Grinning Harry folded his arms, Draco bite his lip 'Damn you Granger! You told him didn't you! Was that why you wanted me out of the hall! Or was it me? Did I leave a clue?'
"H…Harry I hope you find out who it is but you see…I just remembered I had to meet Hermione in…in the library," Smiling Draco made to walk past Harry but Harry stopped him with his hand.
"Draco?" His eyes widening Draco couldn't understand. He hadn't left anything. No clue at all. "Are you alright?"
Mentally frowning Draco didn't get it. "Yeah I'm fine, why wouldn't I be?"
"No reasons, well I better go face them," With that Harry made his way into the great hall leaving a very confused Malfoy.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I thought he had figured it out but then he just walked off!" Draco stared at Hermione from across the table, "Are you sure I left no clues?"
"Not that I know off except…"
"Except…!" Draco was sitting on the edge of his seat.
"Those stones. Yes a very brilliant piece of magic Draco but…making them turn green kind of gave it away. Luckily I don't think Harry noticed."
Frowning Draco looked out the window. People had now gathered around the arch and stones amazed.
Smiling Draco turned back to Hermione, "So who does he think it is?"
Opening her mouth Hermione was silenced by Ron sitting next to her, "Hey Hermione. Malfoy."
"Hey Ron what's up?" Hermione glanced an apologetic look at Draco who just watched in amusement.
"You will not believe what you missed, Harry right comes into the hall…"
"Harry?" Ron looked confused at the two teens who had spoken.
"Yeah you know our friend, raven hair, green eyes, a lightning bolt scar, the boy who lived. Ringing a bell?"
Draco and Hermione glared at the red head who shrugged them off, "Anyways Harry comes in sits next to Seamus then whispers something, which I wander what it was, o well suddenly Seamus shakes his head making Harry frown. And next thing you know Harry and Seamus are off out on a date!"
Hermione gasped in surprise while Draco just sat staring blinking every second.
He was shocked, no angry, no upset, no confused, no defiantly angry.
Growling Draco stood up before storming out the library.
"What's his problem?" Ron frowned.
"Ronald!" Getting up Hermione slapped Ron's head before taking off after Draco.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harry sat by the lake the arch had become very popular, even Dumbledore had come out and had a look. Rumour had it that the Head teacher liked it so much he was willing to keep it.
Sighing Harry frowned. 'If it wasn't Seamus then who?' Sighing again Harry couldn't believe he had agreed to go on a date with Seamus.
Looking down at the necklace Harry truly wanted to meet this person. He wanted to know by looking in their eyes if they loved him or just had a stupid crush.
Shaking his head Harry stuffed the locket down his top before standing.
Whoever it was he was going to find out who they where.
Walking back up to the castle Harry was surprised to see Draco come storming out quickly followed by Hermione. They were heading for the forest.
Curious Harry followed making sure neither noticed him. Hiding behind a tree Harry listened as the two teens stopped.
"Draco what's wrong?"
"Nothing,"
"Pull the other leg! The way you stormed out of there it was obvious that it affected you…look I'm sure if you…"
Silence. Frowning Harry waited listening carefully.
"Eavesdropping isn't very nice Harry,"
"Shit!" Muttering under his breathe Harry walked out from the tree Smirking at Draco and a surprised Hermione.
"Amazed you knew I was there Draco,"
Smiling back Draco looked at Hermione, before walking back out of the forest.
Once Draco disappeared Harry's smile faded and was replaced by a frown.
"What's going on?" Hermione gulped at the seriousness in Harry's eyes.
"N…nothing Harry." Walking past the raven-haired teen Hermione wasn't surprised when he grabbed her arm.
"Tell me Hermione!"
"Just drop it Harry!" pulling her arm away Hermione ran off leaving Harry even more confused.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lying on his bed Draco frowned, 'How is it Seamus get a date after doing nothing while I have done everything and gotten nothing!"
His anger growing Draco walked over to his desk pulling out a parchment and quill. Writing furiously Draco soon stopped re-reading what he wrote. Sighing he finished it before tying it to his eagle owl.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harry sat staring at the stars his invisibility cloak lying next to him. His mind was in over drive causing his head to ache.
Closing his eyes Harry fell into an uneasy slumber.
" 'Arry?"
" "
" 'Arry?"
"Hmm?" Harry rolled over as his mind slowly came back.
" 'Arry wake up! What do you think ya doing out 'ere at this time?"
Opening his eyes Harry was surprised to see Hagrid.
"Hagrid? What…what are you doing in the Gryffindor dorm?"
" 'Arry ya outside on Hogwarts grounds!"
His eyes widening Harry sat up. Looking at his watch he groaned. 4 in the morning he had been out all night.
"Come on ya look frozen. Come into me hut."
Standing Harry picked up his cloak, looking on the ground to make sure he didn't leave anything Harry picked up and envelope placing it in his pocket before running after Hagrid.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Draco frowned watching the red table. No sign of Harry. Biting his lip Draco hoped his letter hadn't hurt him that much.
Blaize shook his head sighing while Pansy glared at her friend.
"How could you? It isn't the poor lad's fault you refuse to tell him who you are. What's he meant to do turn down every person who asks him?"
Huffing Pansy continued to eat her breakfast muttering about 'boy's' and 'selfishness'
Draco returned to look at the table 'I'm sorry Harry I didn't mean it…not all of it anyway,'
