Harry
I went to bed with the thought of Hermione liking Draco weighing on my mind. It was pretty obvious she liked him. I remember at the wedding how she was standing up for him and she was all over him. Why wouldn't she just admit it?
That night I had a weird nightmare. I dreamed that Hermione and Draco had a secret wedding in their first year and had just told Ron and I that they had been married for five years.
I woke up and went down to breakfast and saw Ron and Hermione." Hey, Harry! You have like five minutes to eat breakfast before potions."
Great, just great. Why do I always have to miss breakfast? It would be much better if someone like Malfoy missed breakfast. Speaking of him, I looked at Hermione and sure enough she was staring at the Slytherin table.
I scarfed down some breakfast and quickly rushed to get my stuff for potions. On my way there I bumped into Malfoy." Watch where you're going Clumsy Person!" he yelled.
He was looking right at me," I HAVE A NAME!" I yelled back.
" OH, that's right. Watch it Scarface- I mean Potter!" He said vindictively.
" Aren't you going the wrong way?" I asked.
I was secretly hoping he was sick and was headed to the Hospital Wing." I forgot my Potions book. Do you have a problem with that Mr. I-Never-forget-My-Book?" He said angrily
Sheesh, somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. Malfoy was in a worse mood than usual. Something must have been bothering him and I had no idea what it was and I didn't care.
I walked into Snapes room and sat beside Ron and Hermione. " What took you so long?" questioned Ron.
" The Evil One," I answered.
" That's not nice if you're talking about Draco!" Hermione said standing up for Malfoy.
I ignored her and asked," oh, so you're on a first name basis with him now?"
" Harry!" she said in a whiny voice like a two-year-old.
" Oh, you've been writing him love notes? This is serious. You are really deeply in-"
" SHUT UP!" Hermione yelled.
" Ms. Granger 2 points form Gryffindor for yelling in my class," Snape said.
Apparently he had come in without us noticing.

I looked around my common room. Why couldn't I find my Potions book? I had found every single book except my Potions. I finally decided to give up. By the time I found that book, Potions would be over.
I walked in about fifteen minutes late. " Sorry, Professor I just couldn't seem to find my book," I told Snape when I walked in.
He just smiled while all the Gryffindors burst into laughter." It's perfectly fine Mister Malfoy. You may partner up with Ms. Granger over here!" He said pointing to miss I-always-get-straight-A's.
I took a seat right beside and saw her smiling." What is wrong with you? Do you think Snape likes you or something? If you do you're dead wrong. He hates your guts!" I yelled at her.
That wiped the smile off her face." I- I-" she stammered.
" Forget it Gangly!" I told her.
I didn't care why she was smiling. She probably was smiling at Potter. Ugh, Potter always gets the girl just because he has a stupid scar on his forehead. In the middle of working on our potion Hermione dropped a notebook but didn't seem to notice. I picked it up and put it under my stuff so that Granger wouldn't know. I planned on reading it after Potions class. It could be answers to a charms quiz or it could be a diary. I really hoped it was her diary so I could know what she really thought of Potter and Weasley.
When Potions was over I rushed to my common room and opened her notebook to a page. It WAS a diary! Yes! It read:
September 26, 1995
Today I have a confession to make. It's bit silly really. I have a crush on Draco Malfoy.
I stopped reading. I felt my face redden. A girl had a crush on me and not just any girl at that. It was a Gryffindor girl. I read on:
I guess it started in my fourth year. I never told anybody because I was in denial and still pretended to hate him. But when Harry told me Draco was going to become his brother. I felt my heart quicken and I knew I had a crush on him. Harry and Ron are on to me now but I have no idea how to tell them.
I'm scared to tell them. I know Ron will get mad because he has a quick temper anyway. Harry? Well, I'm not sure about him. I have absolutely no idea how he will take it. I'll let you know when I finally get up enough nerve to tell them.
I closed the book and put it under my bed. Today was just too much. First I was in a bad mood because I lost my book. Then I found out that Hermione had a crush on me." Yo, Draco my man. 'Sup?"
I stared at Blaise. Where did he learn to talk like that? This was London not California." What is with you?"
" Sorry, Draco. My cousin lives in Cali and she wrote me a letter today. I guess I read it one too many times." Blaise said apologetically.
" It's fine, Blaise."
" You okay?" Blaise asked.
" I just found out who likes me," I said.
He looked at me in shock," You just found out Pansy likes you? Draco where have you been?"
" No, no, no. Someone else does!" I told him
"Who?" Blaise quizzed
" Well, that is for me to know and you to find out."
" Why'd you mention it, if you aren't going to tell me who?" Blaise asked
" 'Cause I wanted you to know I have two girls who like me now," I said.
" Whatever, I got homework to do," Blaise said.
He then left. I walked down to the library hoping to spy on Hermione. I was hoping she was looking for her notebook. I had a plan to get Hermione as my girlfriend. If I became Harry's friend she would go out with me! It was perfect!

Harry
" Guy's have you seen my diary?" Hermione asked us.
" Nope, didn't even know you owned one of those!" I told her.
" Harry, Ron I got to find it if someone else-"
" Why are so worried? I know you wrote something personal. That is why diaries should be outlawed. I mean look at what happened to Ginny-"
" RON!" Hermione yelled.
" What? I was just sayin'," Ron said defending himself
" Okay, guys. I sort of have a confession to make," Hermione said.
Ron and I looked at each other. She was going to confess. This was going to be good. " You see the thing is I have a crush on Draco!" she told us.
" Really? I hadn't noticed," I told her.
" You mean you guys you knew?" Hermione asked outraged.
" Of course. It was so obvious." I told her.
Hermione sighed. We then went to the library to help her find her diary.
We spread out. I had been looking for five minutes when I found a notebook on a table that said Hermione's Diary. I picked it up and went to look for Hermione and Ron." Psst… Harry come here!" a voice said from behind the bookshelf at the very back of the library.
I walked to the bookshelf and whom should I see? It was Draco Malfoy. " Listen, Harry I'm sorry for everything I've done in the past four years. I just want you to know I always wanted a brother and we could be just like brothers. Oh, and my friendship offer still stands. What I mean is I'm going to try to do my best to be nice to you from now on," Draco told me.
" What are you saying? That you want me to be your friend?" I said.
He was acting very odd." Well, Crabbe and Goyle dumped me for cake and Blaise well I don't really feel close to him. Anyway, I've always liked you better than those slytherins. So will you be my friend? We could do cool stuff together. I could on your adventures with your friends and be part of your group," Draco said.
" Well…"
Did I want Draco to be one of my best friends?
