Dedication: I would like to thank my friend Kelsey for making me read Harry Potter in the first place. *Hugs* and I would also like to thank the voice in my head telling me that this was a good idea.

Summary: In ch. 2 we find Harry still swooning and play Quidditch at the same time. not a good thing.

***

At lunch Harry would think that he would be used to all the Slytherins talking, being close to Draco. But Harry watched as Puck and Draco were deep in conversation. They were so close together, their noises barely touched once. It just made him angry that Puck could be so close to Draco and everyone wouldn't have a second thought over it. That is everyone but Harry.

Puck turned his attention away from Draco once to look at Harry with a smile. Harry really wanted to walk over to the Slytherin table push Puck out of the way and set right next to Draco, to stare in his ice blue eyes. Puck was his friend, but he hated his friend being so close.

"Harry?" Heroine asked with a faint whisper and he turned away from the sliver haired Slytherin. "Are you alright? You haven't eaten anything. You're going to need your strength."

"I'm just nervous about the game." It was a lie. a small one. but it was one. Harry was more then just confident about the game. He wish he could just once tell them what was really bothering him. Maybe it's best not to tell them yet. Not now, not at lunch. He knew they wouldn't bear down on him when he finally told them about Draco, but he wasn't ready to tell.

"Don't be Harry." Ron offered his comfort. "You'll be fine."

"Thanks Ron.but I'm." He was cut off by the first years in aw over the owls flying into the hall. "Owl post."

Hedwig swooped down and dropped one small peace of paper and a package with a letter, in Harry's lap. Sitting on his shoulder he quickly feed her a peace of meat and petted her before she went off. Surprised he got something; he opened the letter on top of the package with some speed.

Dear Harry,

Happy Birthday! I know I'm late, but don't be to mad at me. I couldn't get you a present in time. I'm sorry. anyways good luck at the game. Write me soon, I'll want to hear everything about it. Sirius

Harry opened his present and smiled down at his sliver dragon hide book. He had eyed one just like it when they went to Diagon Alley for their supplies.

P.s. I saw you eyeing it. Don't let it freak you out that I didn't say anything to you. I just want to keep you safe.

"What is it?" Ron asked trying to look from the other side of the table.

"It's a present from Sirius." He whispered picking up the book for everyone to see. "It's the journal I was looking at in Diagon Alley." Harry turned to the first page and read.

This is the journal of one Harry Potter. It awaits to be filled with your words, Harry. Sirius

And then the words disappeared from the page before he closed it. He loved his present from his godfather. Harry always wanted to start a journal, one where he could write down his thoughts, his dreams, and his desires. If Harry couldn't find the strength to tell anyone about his attraction to Draco then he could write it down just the same and then Harry started laughing at the thought that his godfather, whether he knew it or not, always seemed to answer Harry's questions.

Sighing at himself, Harry picked up the other letter. Opening it made the hairs in the back of his neck stand up, just by reading the simple words.

I want to talk. Meet me after the game.

The hand writing he didn't recognize. Who would send this to him? It couldn't be Draco. could it. If he looked up would Draco be looking at him, licking his lips again?

Harry looked up from the letter to the Slytherin table across the hall. A little shocked and dismayed as he stared at the black eyes that were staring back. Puck petted the gray owl on his shoulder before it flew away and he winked at Harry.

Why Puck? What did Puck want with Harry?

"Oy Harry, what it say?" Ron said snatching the note out of his hand. A little cranky towards Ron, Harry snatched the note back and ripped it up hoping he didn't read any of it.

"You are a most unorthodox creature, you know that!?" Hermione yelled at Puck when he sat down besides her.

"Why?" He batted his eyes.

"You're setting here in the Gryffindor side wearing your Slytherin robes." Smiling at her Puck quickly put on a hat that sported the Gryffindor colors. "." Hermione was a little besides her self. "Where did you get that?"

"Fred let me borrow it for the game." Puck's face, for once seemed to harbor some color as he blushed.

"Why, is my question mate?" Ron asked from the other side of Hermione.

"I happen to think the Gryffindors are the better team. Shouldn't I at lest route for my favorite team?" Crossing her eyes Hermione shook her head in shock. "Besides the Slytherins don't play fair."

"BLOODY HELL! YOU ARE A SLYTHERIN!" Hermione stood up yelling.

"Oh. yeah." Puck laughed pulling the hat down further to cover his sweet black eyes.

"I swear, mate. I don't know how you became a Slytherin." Ron uttered. "Besides wont the other Slytherins jump you for being over here.?"

"There is only one thing you need to know when you're in the Slytherin house." Puck paused looking over to all the other Slytherins. "It's not what you do that's important it's who your friends are. In my case I'm very good friends with Draco."

"You're friends with that ponce?" Ron asked harshly and Puck just nodded and continued.

"He knows I like being here with you guys and he gives me no grief over it and so the others leave me alone."

"Doesn't sound like the Malfoy we know." Hermione snapped.

"Maybe you don't know him as well as you think you do." Puck beamed a smile up at her.

"OY! OY! OY!" Ron yelled standing up next to Hermione, pointing to Harry carrying his Fireblot and the rest of the Gryffindor team, walking out into the fled.

The Gryffindors side scarlet, plus one spot of green, cheered the team on. As the Slytherins side green with envy hissed as always. Their hisses abruptly turned to cheers as Malfoy and the huge Slytherin team walked out standing toe to toe with the Gryffindors. Harry eyed Draco and he eyed back, never once looking at the other team mates.

//God! Why does Draco have to look so exquisite in green?\\

//DAMN! Why does Harry have to wear that color? It brings out his eyes nicely. I wander if they would be just as bright with out his robes?\\

"Captains, shake hands!" Madam Hooch's voice rang in their ears but nether one moved. They just looked each other over. "CAPTAINS!" They jumped at her voice and took hold over each others hands. Draco lifted a devious smile while brushing his finger on the back of Harry's. Heat filled Harry's face as he pulled away from Draco's hand.

"Mount your brooms!" Yelled Madam Hooch.

//I could mount Harry's broom any day. did I just think that?\\

//What is that look in his eyes?\\

Both teams mounted, waiting for the call. Scarlet and Green sides cheered for their team. Snape sat in the front row on the Slytherin side, looking as bored as ever. Dumbledore sat watching with excitement and plopping a bean in his mouth only to frown at its taste. Banners of Scarlet and Green waved in the air. Thousands of voice yelling out and then.

"Three. two. one." The whistle blow and up went fourteen brooms, two of which went higher then the rest. The two seekers eyed each other madly, circling each other, taking their places high above the ground.

"GO GEORGE. FRED! GO HARRY!" Ron, Hermione, and Puck yelled.

"Go Draco!" Puck yelled a moment after and was met by hands slapping his shoulders. "Ouch! Oy! I've got to cheer for him. He still is my friend."

"Malfoy, What are you doing fallowing me?" Harry yelled across to a smirking Draco.

"I thought we could get better acquainted up here, Potter." He said sarcastically, searching for any sign of the Snitch. Harry turned away from him, but he could still see the beautiful pale teenager flying some distance besides him.

Draco was so graceful on his broom. Not that Harry would tell him this, but he really admired the way he seemed so comfortable on a broom. He wanted to seize Draco on his broom, draw him closer.

Harry was a GOD on his Broom, his black hair flowing a little in the wind. His green eyes trying not to look Draco's way, until Draco teased him to, by pulling on his pony tail, letting his shoulder length hair fall down. Brushing his hand through his hair Draco looked back at a blushing Harry.

Neither one of them paid attention to the game. But that was quickly over when Draco spun around on his broom, barley dodging the Bludger. Out of the corner of his eye Harry saw it coming for him and he swore he heard Draco call him before it smacked him hard in the gut. Doubled over and in pain, Harry couched up blood. Wincing he wiped it away.

"Oy, HARRY! SORRY MATE!" George yelled smacking the Bludger in the path of the Slytherin chaser. Setting up right again the pain went away as Harry looked over at Draco to see a brief look of concern on his face.

Turning their heads away from each other, Harry caught a glimpse at the golden Snitch. Looking at the score board, they were tied. Wiping their heads back to each other, the two seekers knew that both of them as seen it.

"It's my Potter!" Draco yelled diving down furisly, his sliver hair flowing wildly in the rush. Harry kicked at the back of the broom and flew with great speed towards the Snitch, towards Draco.

"Look there they go!" Heroine yelled pointing at the seekers.

"Wow! I've never seen them fly with so much energy before!" Ron was at the edge of his set and Puck pulled down the hat over his eyes.

"I can't take it! I don't want to watch. I don't want to watch!" Puck rocked back in forth.

The two seekers kept up with each other, close to each other. Draco tried to push Harry away but that only made Harry focuses more on the Snitch. He remembered Draco and him doing something like this before, but last time Draco pulled up at the last minute.

Harry looked over at him just for a moment. He seemed different, more determined than he's ever seen Draco before. His hair flowed behind him. Draco reminded Harry of a Dragon, one chasing its prey. Looking back, the Snitch and the ground were so close now.

Two different hands reached out, wanting the same thing, bodies collided in a dance of green and scarlet. Harry heard something snap as he and Draco spun out of control in each others arms and then there was nothing.

A moment of silence and then Draco tried to move. His arm. he couldn't move his arm and something was pinning him to the ground. Looking up Draco found him self in the thin forest out side the stadium. His broom was some feet way and Harry's was shattered, each peace some feet apart. Looking over his shoulder he saw what was pinning him. Harry was on top of him, his back on Draco's.

"Potter?" He yelled to him and he felt something wiggle in his hand. He knew at once what it was. "Potter I got the Snitch! Games over! You can get up now!" He yelled, but there was nothing. Carefully Draco inched his way out from under Harry. He looked down at the lifeless body belonging to his nemeses. "Potter!?" Draco yelled once more, but nothing.

Draco scooted closer, but no movement. "Harry." Draco let out a faint plea, but nothing. Draco let go of the Snitch and wrapped his good arm around Harry as the Snitch fluttered off and out of sight. "Harry!" His vision went blurry from the tears, but he didn't want to let go of Harry to wipe them away. "Don't you dare be dead! Do you hear me, HARRY!?"
