A/N: ok well I figured out that it is really hard to write in first person
present. So I'll write in third person for the rest of the story. Now if
you didn't notice I upped the rating because I got this epiphany on a huge
story line that my friend Denra helped me with. It's really interesting
and I have the later parts of the story written. I just need to get the
parts leading up to that written. Also I have just become aware of this
group called the PPC. And I wanted everyone to know that this story may
seem a little out of character at times on Draco's part but that is how I
want it so there. *Sticks tongue out at the people* please review if you
have read this I don't care if you liked it or not I want to know if people
are reading this or not. Ok well on with the story.

Chapter 5: Love will find a way
Weeks had passed and it was almost Halloween. Kaitlyn and Draco had become closer friends and hung around each other a lot. Pansy Parkinson had even started talking to her. School was getting harder and it was stressful. Kaitlyn was looking forward to the Hogsmeade trip Halloween weekend. Draco and her planned to go to Madam Rosemertta's.
Kaitlyn was in class and was off daydreaming not realizing the professor was talking. She was bored and didn't want to be in class. It was a beautiful day out and she wanted to go fly. She looked and her watch. Five minutes and class would be over. She started doodling on her notebook. The bell rang. Kaitlyn went to her room and put her books away, then picked up her broom. She headed to the quidditch pitch.
When she got there she noticed Draco sitting in the middle of the field with his broom next to him. Kaitlyn walked over.
"Draco what's wrong?"
"Hey Lynn."
"What's bothering you, this is your 'something is seriously
troubling me'
spot. So what's wrong?"
"My father."
"Oh, what happened this time?"
"I got a letter from my mother. She said that she just got out
of St. Mungo's."
Kaitlyn gasped.
"What happened?"
"The wrath of my father is what happened. She said she just
asked him for the sugar bowl and he sent the cruciatus curse at
her. Then he physically abused her. She said they had three
Healers trying to keep her alive. She said that father blamed
it on a rampaging dog."
"That's terrible."
"The worst part is no one questioned his story."
"Oh Draco maybe you should talk to Dumbledore about going home
to see her."
"Then father would wonder why I'm home when we have no break
then I would be in trouble and so would my mother."
"Oh your right. Well maybe you should still tell Dumbledore."
"I would but he wouldn't be able to do anything my father has to
much social power. He would just get some one to do it for him
if he was trying to make it look like he wasn't the culprit. "
"Well then I don't know what to tell you."
Kaitlyn sighed. She was worried for Draco and for his mother and didn't know how to help, but she realized from what Draco said that acting on it wouldn't be smart.
Draco looked at her; he gave her a small smile. She smiled back at him and then gave him a hug. He was quite surprised by they act, but that didn't mean he didn't want it. It made his troubles go away. He realized that he really cared for Lynn. He just didn't know hot to tell her.
Kaitlyn backed away gave him a smile, then got off the ground and outstretched her arm.
"Come on get up lets go to the Kitchens."
"What for?"
"To cheer you up of course. I we cant act on it we can at least
try to suppress it."
"Umm ok."
Draco got up with help of Kaitlyn's hand. And they walked to the kitchen. As they walked down the hallway Draco thought about his feelings for Kaitlyn. He had never felt like this toward anyone before. She made him happy when he was depressed. And if she was upset he wasn't happy. He glanced over at her and to him she looked like the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. He thought of taking her hand but wasn't sure if he should he contemplated it as he walked.
Meanwhile Kaitlyn was also thinking of her feelings. For the first time she realized how much she felt about Draco. She was sick of waiting around for some guy to make a move so she thought about how to make her first move. She didn't want to scare him way but she wanted him to get the point. She had hugged him earlier but that was part of the moment. So she decided she would hold his hand simple yet gets the point across.
Kaitlyn slid her hand into his. He looked over at her surprised. Then he affectionately squeezed her hand. She got a little close to him. Then out of nowhere Draco started laughing. Not loudly but kind of a manly giggle thing. (A/n ok couldn't figure out how to explain what I was thinking.) Kaitlyn looked at him with a raised eyebrow.
"I was just thinking a few seconds ago if you would freak out if
I grabbed your hand."
"Oh well now you know."
Draco nodded. They arrived in the kitchens. And Draco noticed his ex- house elf Dobby busying himself. Draco was hungry.
"Umm, Dobby?"
"Master Draco?"
"Umm hi Dobby, do you have any food for me and my...umm I mean
Kaitlyn."
Kaitlyn started to smirk and Draco's possession of her.
"What is you wanting Master Draco? What foods is Dobby ge
tting you s
sir?"
"Umm what do you want to eat Lynn?"
"Chocolate Ice Cream?"
"Dobby will be right back miss."
Kaitlyn thought dobby was cute yet annoying with his little way of talking.
"Chocolate Ice Cream? What brought that up?"
"Its my favorite flavor."
"Oh"
"Aren't you going to eat something?"
"Not hungry."
"Oh"
"Dobby brought you ice cream for you miss. What will Master
Draco be having sir?"
"Just a butter beer dobby."
"Dobby will be right back then sir."
Kaitlyn and Draco sat down on a spot on the floor that they found in the corner of the Kitchen where there was hardly anyone around. Kaitlyn sat about a foot away from Draco. Now that Draco knew he wasn't alone in his feelings. He put his arm around her waste and pulled her over to him.
"Much better"
Kaitlyn smiled at him and leaned her head on his shoulder. He smiled at her touch. She was so warm. He kept his arm around her waste and hugged her tight to him. He was so comfortable with her. It was then that he realized that he didn't have an ordinary crush.
