I have to sincerely apologize! I haven't updated in ages, and I left you
all hanging at a really juicy part, too! I'm so, so very sorry! Please
forgive me? *gives you all puppy eyes* Anyway, to make up for it, I'm going
to start up again and make sure I pop out at least three updates a week. I
promise more happy-happy things will come! In the meantime, take a look at
this lovely drawing my friend PachWork did:

(Isn't she amazing folks?) I really just love her work, and she was kind
enough to do this Harry+Draco piece! Thank you Pach! Much love!
Harry twiddled his pencil. Each class today seemed to be going by in snaps, even though all he did all period was twiddle his pencil. He had been thinking so deeply his head hurt. What had he discovered from hours of torturing over one topic? He was in love. Indeed he was. with Draco Malfoy, no less. His checks flushed as he thought this.
He grinned to himself, and clutched his pencil. Draco had held him for what seemed like hours yesterday. Harry had tensed slightly when the other boy had wrapped his arms around Harry's back, pulling him close, but in minutes he had just melted into Draco's arms. It was the most amazing sensation Harry had ever felt. Draco was warm, his robes were soft, and his shoulder seemed to fit Harry's head just right.
He let out a contented sigh. He wanted to do it again, he knew that for sure.
"Mr. Potter? Are you paying attention?"
Harry jumped. "Yes sir! Professor, I..." his eyes focused and he found them on Seamus' face. He was grinning broadly. "Seamus! Don't toy with me like that!" he said giving him a playful shove. They were in the hallway, walking towards the history of magic classroom.
"Well, you were in such a daze, I couldn't help it! I didn't even think you knew class had ended! Your feet were walking, to be sure, but your head...Well; I figured it had fallen right off your shoulders!" Harry laughed. "Sorry about that...My minds' just been elsewhere today, I guess."
"That's an understatement." said Ron from next to him, rolling his eyes. "What were you thinking of? If it's that exam we have next period, don't worry, I didn't study either."
"Ron!" said Hermione. "If you weren't study all night, what in the world were you doing up so late? I heard you muttering in the stair well in the wee hours of the morning!"
"He was busy trying to sneak into the girls dormitories!" piped up Lavender.
"Was not!" said Ron testily, his ears turning pink. "That little monster of a cat got loose and came and hunkered down at the foot of my bed! Staring beadily at me with those horrid yellow eyes...I truly couldn't sleep a wink, so I thought I'd just drop him off and make sure the dormitory door was shut tight. And I was muttering because Lavender told me off for being a voyeur." He added angrily.
"Su-u-u-u-re!" said Lavender sticking her tongue out at him.
"Hmph." was Ron's reply.
Harry had turned back to his thoughts while the others talked and laughed playfully. That's right. Exams... His time to be with Draco was shorter and shorter everyday. He was just glad his last quidditch match wasn't with Slytherin. He didn't think he could have played against Draco under the current circumstances.
He turned the corner into the history of magic classroom and found himself staring into pale grey eyes. The fact that this exam was to be taken with the Slytherins was at the back of his mind, but it must have gone forgotten with all the other thinking he was doing.
Draco smiled at Harry and handed him a blank piece of paper, and they took their seats. Harry stared curiously at the paper, but placed it on his desk and began his exam. Only moments later he saw out of the corner of his eye, letters form on the surface of the blank sheet of paper. He blinked, turning around in his desk to look at Draco, who grinned at him as he penned the note. Harry turned back to his desk, glancing at the paper. It must be bewitched he though smiling. 'Good luck on your exam.' said the note. Harry quirked an eyebrow. He felt brave at the moment. 'Meet me after class in the corridor by the kitchens.' He wrote back. He looked over his shoulder and saw Draco reading off a piece of paper just like the one he'd given Harry. He saw Draco smile.
'Sure thing, love. What's the answer to question four, by the way.'
'Tut tut.' Harry wrote back, smiling all the while.
