*Author's note* This chapter will be a flashback to how Draco and Harry
first got together. There will not be a sexual scene in this chapter, but
I am still new at writing them, so it might be a while before I get to the
next one.

Harry entered the bedroom and undressed quietly, not wanting to wake up Ron, Seamus, Neville, or Dean. He wasn't willing to explain why he looked so disheveled. He lay down in the bed and closed his eyes. His thoughts began to dwell on the first time he and Draco had expressed their true feelings for each other.
It had been during their first year, Harry had left something, what he had left now had been long forgotten, at the Herbology class and had gone back for it. When he had started back toward the castle he looked around and saw Draco Malfoy walking toward him. Harry braced himself for whatever action Draco was about to take against him. Normally Harry had Ron and Hermoine and Draco had Crabbe and Goyle to ensure that their hatred didn't get out of hand but now there was no one to stop Malfoy from whatever he wanted to do.
Draco looked up and saw Harry looking at him. Draco looked around making sure that no one was around other than himself and Harry. "Potter, I wanted to tell you that." He couldn't help himself anymore, Draco leaned in and kissed Harry passionately. The kiss lasted for several minutes before Harry pushed Draco away.
Harry looked at Draco with confusion and admiration. Harry had secretly been in love with Draco since their first meeting in the hallway but had never said anything because he assumed that Draco had hated him. Harry smiled now as he saw the nervous look on Draco's face. "I feel the same way, Draco." Harry reached out and took Malfoy's hand in his.
Draco smiled and squeezed Harry's hand. "Look, I can't explain this, but we need to keep our relationship secret. As much as possible we need to keep up the appearance of our hatred for each other. If my father found out that I was in love with you he would kill me." He looked pleadingly into Harry's eyes, hoping that Potter would understand.
Harry smiled again at Draco. "I understand Draco." The tension relaxed between them. Harry checked his watch. "We'd better get back up to the castle before the bell rings." Draco nodded his agreement. "You go on first, I'll be behind you in a few minutes. We can't be seen walking up there together. Why don't we meet up tonight at around 8:00 down in the old dungeons? It's not very romantic, but no one ever goes down there." Harry thought for a few minutes, he didn't know if Ron or Hermoine would let him go off by himself so late at night. "Sounds great, I'll see you then." The pair kissed once more and split up. Harry headed back up to the castle. Draco waited until Harry was inside before making his way back up to the castle also.
