Chapter 5

Bathroom Meetings

As the school year proceeded Harry and Draco got together whenever they had the chance. The 7th year have been getting swamped with homework and projects they've had to do. It was late November and the students were getting restless, wanting the Christmas break to come sooner than the days were passing.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione were usually in the library doing homework together. Mostly consisting of Hermione helping Ron out in his subjects. Ever since their one night fling Harry and Ron haven't been together but Ron had gotten over his liking for Harry and now was head over heels for Hermione.

Harry nudged Ron. "Just ask her out. She likes you trust me." He whispered to his friend while he glanced at Hermione's turned back.

Ron shook his head "I'll look stupid." His ears turned bright red.

Hermione heard that "Look stupid? Why?" she asked turning around and she give Ron a quizzical look.

Ron sputtered and stumbled on his words.

Harry sighed and punched Ron in the arm.

"HARRY!" Hermione squealed running to Ron's side "What was that for? He never did anything to you!" she put her arm around Ron and was whispering to him.

Harry rolled his eyes and looked at Ron as if yelling at him to ask her now.

Ron gulped "Hermionewillyougooutwithme?" he said quickly causing Hermione to stop.

"What was that Ron?"

Ron looked down then up at her "Will you go out with me?" he said in almost a whisper.

Hermione stared at him before squealing delighted "I thought you'd never ask! Of course I will!"

Harry laughed waving his hand to Ron saying 'I told you so' without speaking.

And so, Ron and Hermione were a couple and the three left the library for the night and headed back to their dormitories to sleep.

Harry yawned changing into his pjs.

Ron cleared his throat slightly "I just wanted to thank you Harry. For making me ask Hermione out." He said laughing slightly.

Harry grinned "No problem. G'night Ron" he said climbing into bed and closing the curtains.

"Night Harry" Ron replied and he went to bed as well.

The next day right after breakfast the Slytherin's and Gryffindor's were in Advanced Transfiguration with Professor McGonagall studying how to apparate.

Harry was sitting next to Ron in their shared desk writing down notes on what Prof.. McGonagall was saying about the things to do to get you from one place to another without getting splinched. When he felt something poke him in the back he glanced over his shoulder at Malfoy who had a slip of paper on the edge of the desk looking at Harry then to the paper and he went back to his notes.

Harry turned back around for a moment and once McGonagall's back was turned Harry quickly turned and snatched the note turning back around too quickly to be noticed clutching the note in his other hand as he wrote down a few things.

Harry decided that he would read the note after class since McGonagall was one of those teachers that if you were passing notes she'd catch you no matter how well you hid what you was doing. Harry just hoped she didn't think the crumpled paper in his hand was anything suspicious.

Draco glanced up at Harry once the bell rang and he got his items together and he stood up watching Harry walk out quickly in the hallway. Draco wondered if Harry had already read the note and was giving Draco and answer now. Draco bit his lip and he decided he'd find out for himself and he walked out after Harry glancing around seeing him off near the end of the corridor leaning against the wall and Draco walked up silently behind him leaning against the wall to ask him a question.

Harry had gathered his things quickly and had left without thinking of talking to Draco. He leaned against the wall near the end of the corridor unfolding the note and he read it a small smile on his face.

Harry,

Will you meet me at the Quidditch field tonight @ 8:00pm with your House team so we can have a practice game? I'm not going to let my team be ruthless against yours, so hopefully they'll keep their hands and feet to themselves for once. Hope you can come.

Xoxo, Draco

Harry bit his lip smiling and he traced his finger over the little 'Xoxo' feeling his stomach twist pleasantly and he turned around to go to his dormitory running right into Draco. "Oh, sorry about that" he said smiling.

Draco chuckled slightly "Nice greeting Harry." He said arching a brow at him playfully. "So can you come tonight?" he asked biting his lip slightly "I've booked the field so it's just the Slytherin and Gryffindor Houses tonight that'll be on the field."

Harry nodded "Yeah I think I can come, not sure about the rest of my team though. You know how they feel about the Slytherin team." He shrugged a shoulder staying where he was a bit close to Draco smiling.

Draco smiled slightly and he glanced around not seeing anyone her pulled Harry over and kissed him deeply. Draco slipped his tongue past Harry's lips feeling Harry's tongue do the same in his mouth.

Harry was slightly caught offguard with the kiss but he kissed Draco back none the less. Harry's hands snaked its way up and around to the back of Draco's neck and he ran his fingers through Draco's hair while he kissed him. Draco smiled keeping the kiss for a little bit longer before breaking it, just in time too, Professor McGonagall just walked out of her classroom and walked past the two glancing at them but she didn't say anything and walked on. Draco chuckled smiling mischievously at Harry.

Harry smiled slightly "Close call." He said softly. "I need a cold shower, or bath." He said winking at Draco "Why not in the Prefects' bathroom?" he said winking at Draco "Want to meet me there?" he asked tilting his head slightly.

Draco smiled "Sure, what's the password again?"

Harry grinned slightly and slid over next to Draco "For me or the bathroom?" he said smiling and he pulled Draco's green and silver school tie playfully.

Draco grinned "The bathroom, I forget that one but I can't forget your password." He said softly stealing a small kiss from Harry.

Harry smiled "It's Transparent Service, don't ask me why, because I don't know." He laughed slightly "Anyway I'll meet you up there in a bit. Hurry if you can." He said smiling and he disappeared heading up to the bathroom.
