Omg! Argh! I got 20 reviews! I could absolutely cry with happiness. I thought I was going to have just 1 from someone, and one from briana. And then she emailed me, and was like, you have a bunch of reviews, and I was like, cool, I might even have 5. Kick ass! I have 20 bleeping reviews! Must thank everyone so they keep reviewing. Of course, I can't expect that many every time.

The further this goes, the more ooc it is, though I think since none of us are j k rowling, isn't everything from all of us occ?
It was Thursday morning, and Harry was disappointed. No owl had come down to him, which meant no love letter from The Faithful Watcher. Which meant that he must have decided against telling Harry his name.
Suddenly there was a murmur that went about the room. Harry looked up from the Charms text he was madly studying, Hermione, in her fascination about goat boy, had forgotten to tell the two there was a test, to see what was going on.
Oddly, Malfoy had stood on the Slytherin table, and was pointing his wand at his neck. Harry wondered if he was going to commit suicide, and was surprised to see he cared.
But not because he liked Malfoy of course. Just, if you spend 6 years fighting with someone, and then they're gone, how do you know how to react?
He didn't know how he was going to stop Malfoy, but he knew he had to. He got up, but luckily, so did the teachers, and he knew they could stop it.
He didn't sit back down in rather the same way people sit upright during action scenes in movies, because you can't control what you see, only how your body reacts.
Also, if Draco did kill himself, Harry might vomit, and he would rather do that standing up, where he could get to a bathroom, and not have to struggle with getting out of the bench attached to the table.
But he didn't say the killing curse, nor the vein slitting curse, nor the strangling curse. What he did say, was sonorous.
"The loud voice spell?" Hermione murmured. "What can he want that for?"
"you find yourself falling down
Your hopes in the sky
But your heart like grape gum on the ground
And you try to find yourself
In the abstractions of religion
And the cruelty of everyone else
And you wake up to realize
Your standards of living somehow got stuck on survive
And when you're standing in deep water
Bailing yourself out with a straw
And when your drowning in deep water
And you wake up making love to a wall
Well its these little times
That help to remind
There's nothing without love
You wake up to realize your only friend
Has never been yourself or anybody who cared in the end
that's when suddenly everything falls away
Cause the chains which once held us
Are only the chains which we've made
When you're standing in deep water
Bailing yourself out with a straw
And when your drowning in deep water
And you wake up making love to a wall
Well its these little times
That help to remind
There's nothing without love, love love
There's nothing without love
We've compromised our pride
And sacrificed our health
We must demand more
Not of each other
But more from ourselves
Cause when you're standing in deep water
And you're bailing yourself out with a straw
And when you're drowning in deep water
And you wake up making love to a wall
It's these little times that help to remind
There's nothing without love love love
It's nothing without love."
He pointed his wand at his throat, and said Finite Incantum. He sat down, and left a loud silence.
After several moments, Dumbledore stood up. "Well, actually, I quite agree with you there. All you need is love. I believe all houses should get along better, in the fight against darkness, we need to care and love each other.
A short bit from draco's pov
"Well, that wasn't exactly the point, but what can you do?" I muttered.
"Draco." Goyle grunted.
"Yeah?" I grated. I wasn't in the mood for this. Was the kid that stupid? How could they not realise it was towards them?
"Do you really think your friends don't care about you?"
"Yeah, cause we do."
"I know, you get me everything that I ask for, you're great."
"No, not like that, stupid!" Crabbe said.
Did Crabbe just call me stupid? "Did you just call me stupid?" since when did he have the balls to be rude to me? "Since when do you have the balls to stand up to me?"
"I didn't mean it rudely, I meant as in a friendly way. And you are stupid if you think we're just your friend because we get you stuff and because our fathers say we should be."
"We get you your crap because our dads say so, but we do care about you. I dunno about Vincent, but I'd take a kedavra for you."
"I'm just singing the song to someone I care about. They needed to know I cared. The friend thing was part of the song."
"Draco, hunny?"
"Yes Pansy?" Draco sighed. He really hoped she didn't think he was singing to her. But, knowing Pansy, and her being head over heals to please him, she would think it was.
"Now that we're all being honest, I thought you should know something. Geranium and Magnolia-"
"You call your parents by their first names?"
"Well, Blaise, it's not like they're a good mommy and daddy, right? Anyway, they told me before I came here to Hogwarts when I was 11, that I had to seduce you, so we would eventually get married. But I thought you should know, I don't really like you."
"And you're telling me this now because?"
"Well, I really like this Hufflepuff, and he offered to marry me, and I think I might, and I don't want you to be disappointed, I don't want it to be a huge shock. But, if you need tips to whoever it is you do love, I can tell you great date advice. There are a few things you definitely need to do, if you want to win her over."
"Ok, thanks."
I was hoping they would think, and ponder, and possibly ask their friends, and they would link the facts, but they didn't. So, I had no choice, it was time for phase two. It was too bad it had a muggle reference in it, but I knew they would understand it.
Back to Harry.
It was lunch, and Draco had just stood up again. Harry wondered what his problem was now, and if he was going to sing again.
But he didn't stand on the Slytherin table, he walked over to the next table over, the Hufflepuff table, and stood on that.
"can't explain all the feelings you're making me feel
My heart's in overdrive and you're behind the steering wheel
Touching you
Touching me
Touching you
God if only you'd touch me
I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking til the sun comes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ohhhhhhhhhh
I wanna kiss you every minute every hour every day
You got me in a spin but everything is a ok!
Touching you
Touching me
Touching you
God if only you'd touch me
I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking til the sun comes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ohhhhhhhhhh
Touching you
Touching me
Touching you
God if only you'd touch me
I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There's a chance we could make it now
We'll be rocking til the sun comes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ohhhhhhhhhh."
He got off the Hufflepuff table, and walked back to the Slytherins.
Even Dumbledore didn't know what to say this time, so the room was quiet for a minute before people started to murmur and eat again.
Harry just laughed. Dr-Malfoy was so stupid he was funny.
"You think he's cracked?" Seamus asked from down the table.
"It's possible. We don't know what goes on at his house during the summer, it's possible his entire family's cracked." Hermione replied.
"Yeah, if you're in a family of death eaters, and you know you're gonna be one soon, you gotta be nutters." Ron added.
"You'd only go crazy if you didn't want to join, but you knew you had to. Malfoy wants to, he's evil."
"All the Slytherins are."
"You got that right."
Harry went through the rest of his classes, looking for a note from his Faithful Watcher. However, there were none, and Harry was quite disappointed. Maybe he ruined a good thing. Maybe he had scared him away by asking him constantly who he was. Maybe his Watcher wouldn't ever get back to him, and Harry wouldn't ever know who he had been.
Draco's pov.
I walked out of my last class, arithmacy, and stalked angrily up the stairs, and to the picture of Venus.
"You stupid, worthless, 5 cent sketch on the back of a grocery bill!"
"Hello to you too, Draco."
"Don't act all happy, things are going on. Bad things. Because of you! Damn you, you cheap drawing!"
"Draco, if you can't speak smartly, go away. You aren't the only teen in the school I should be giving advice too."
"You shouldn't be giving love advice to anyone, not if it doesn't work!"
"Who says it doesn't work? Did you sing like I told you too?"
"Yes! I did, though I don't why you went with that route, it's bloody embarrassing."
"You have a lovely voice Draco, simply majestic. Maybe you sang the wrong kind of song. Please tell me it wasn't a rock song."
"Look, I sang a romantic love song on a table to woo them, like you said. Then it didn't work, so I sang a raunchy love song, like you said."
"Ah," the painting sighed. "Phase two was always my favourite stage. Back in the days of-"
"Stuff it. It didn't work. Damn you. It didn't freaking work!"
"Then on to a phase three."
"I didn't know there was a Phase 3."
"Well, normally the girl gets the hint on phase 2. You must love a really dense girl."
"Yeah, well."
"Look, it's rather corny, but they always, ALWAYS understand after it."
"I don't see how it could get much worse. Tell me about it."
"Ok. First you…
Back to Harry.
It was dinner, and Harry had written another note.
Look, I'm sorry if I pressured you. Could you please still write to me? I won't bother you to tell me who you are. If you'll just keep talking to me, I wouldn't bother you, I promise.
Harry.
He was just sealing it, as Lavender squealed, "He's standing up again!"
Harry looked up, just in time to see Draco strut over to the Gryffindor table.
He stood on it, and said "Sonerous."
Draco said a spell that Harry had never heard before, and all the food on the table elevated about 10 feet, so he had a walkway down the entire table. Harry stood up, as did a few others on the his side of the table, as Draco was down at the other end, the first year side, and they wanted to see his new performance.
"I'm sleeping
And right in the middle of a good dream
Then all at once I wake up
From something that keeps knocking against my brain
Before I go insane
I hold my pillow to my head
And spring up in my bed
Screaming out the words I dread
I think I love you!"
He strode a bit down the table, so he was standing in front of the group of third graders.
"This morning I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with
And so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it from myself
And never talk about it
And did not go and shout it
When you walked into the room
I think I love you!"
He strutted a few more steps, to the fourth grade section.
"I think I love you
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for
I think I love you
isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
I've never felt this way!"
he walked down several feet, to stop in front of the sixth graders.
"I don't know what I'm up against
I don't know what it's all about
I've got so much to think about
Hey! I think I love you
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for
I think I love you
isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
I've never felt this way!"
Then he walked over to the edge of the table, where Ron, Seamus, Neville, Dean, Harry, Hermione, Parvarti, Lavender, *Ainslie, and *Treva were sitting.
"Believe me
You really don't have to worry
I only want to make you happy
And if you say
Hey go away, I will
But I think better still
I'd better stay around and love you"
He turned to Ron, and pointed a finger at him. "Do you think I have a case?"
He turned a bit and pointed to Seamus "Should I ask them to their face?"
He turned to Dean. "Do you think they love me?"
He turned to Harry. "This song, though copyrighted by the partridge family, has been brought to you by the faithful watcher. Patent pending."
He hopped off the table, and skipping, yes, literally skipping, he went back to his table, singing, "I think I love you! I think I love you! I think I love you! I think I love you!"
Harry's mind reeled. What did he say?
*sorry about the fake people, but I have a theory. There are 5 people in girls, 5 in boys, so ten a grade. This works nicely cause the latest stats are 1 in ten, so I get to pick 7 gay people from each house. Because I could only remember Hermione lavender and parvarti (are there others that I forgot?) I made up two.
