Chapter 2

-Draco's POV-

The moment that I caught a glimpse of Harry my heart started to beat twice as fast. Since I had seen him getting off the Hogwarts express at the end of last term he had grown half a foot and much more beautiful. I had always known I was attracted to him but this longing had grown unbearable.

I remember the first time I ever laid eyes on him like it was yesterday. I was being fitted for robes in Madame Malkin's Robes for All Occasions. I didn't know who he was yet, but I felt an instant connection with him and so I struck up a conversation about Quidditch. How did I know then that we would become bitter enemies, and how had I let it happen? Pride. Pride and Harry's stupid prying friends and my ancestral heritage.

I snapped back to the present as we drew closer and Goyle accidentally bumped into me. My heart wanted desperately to draw Harry into my arms. However, I knew I had to keep my icy cool facade in place so that he wouldn't suspect anything.

I coolly addressed him. "Hello, Potter". Due to the fact that I had been thinking about him and only him, I had almost forgotten to mention Granger and Weasley, and that would have given away more than I cared to divulge to anyone. My heart wrenched as he addressed me, Crabbe, and Goyle in the same breath, and in the same, cool manner. But then again he couldn't be hiding anything. Not the perfect Harry Potter. That would be all too much to hope for, and thinking of the inevitable fact that I would never hold him in my arms brought crystalline tears to my eyes.

Knowing I couldn't last any longer, I stalked past him and into the ice cream shop that in a few minutes had passed from an exciting treat to a menial task demoted to the back of my mind.

How could things ever change between me and Harry? We had stayed rivals for too long, and I was sure he didn't feel the same way I did. My heart clenched for the thousandth time today as I thought of what could never be.

-End of POV-

Little did Draco know that this year contained certain surprises that would force Draco and Harry to admit their true feelings to each other.
