Here's chappie two!!
Harry couldn't understand why Malfoy was behaving so wierdly. It was just so freaky to have someone - especially him - stare at you like that!
'Must be all the pressure what with his father in Azkaban and all'
But he couldn't quite shake the wierd thing at the back of his head trying to get out and scream the truth at him. He just pushed all those thoughts to the back of his mystified brain, and listened to Ron and Hermione arguing about Jankuas again.
'How boring are these people??!! What the hell were Jankuas anyways?'
His question was answered immediately by Hermione as if she had read his thoughts; but of course there was no way she could've done that while fighting with Ron, but you know, it's just a thought that passed through my mind...
"Harry, aren't Jankuas amazing? They're almost like kangroos, except they are way huger and jumps way longer. Don't you think they are just amazing?! Of course Ron doesn't think so cuz he has got no clue what kangroos are, but don't you think they are incredible? Huh?" Hermione looked eagerly at Harry.
"Yeah Hermione....... whatever you say Hermione......they are amazing creatures Hermione...." Harry answered slowly, wondering what was suddenly wrong with everyone. Who fights about amazingness of creatures?
Ron caught the look in Harry's face, though Hermione didn't, and burst out laughing. Harry almost laughed, but seeing Hermione's furious face, he decided that he didn't want to be told a lecture all the way to Herbology and for quite a few days after that.
Harry let his brain wonder again as Ron and Hermione launched yet another 'I-hate-you' attack on each other. To his surprise his thoughts landed on Draco, while looking for something to think about.
'It's probably just concern for the poor guy' Harry tried to reassure himself. 'Sometimes I feel so sorry for him for being such a dumbass!!'
Harry burst out laughing at his own (stupid) joke, and its only good outcome was to end one of the many Ron-and-Hermione wars.
"Er... Harry? Are you alright?" Ron asked with much concern, though there was a trace of amusement at Harry's little outburst.
"No - I mean yeah. Of course I'm alright! I was just ... remembering my last encounter with Dudley before school..."....and Harry plunged into a totally made-up story that really didn't make any sense.
Finally they got to the greenhouses, and walked into the one labled 5, where most of the class was. They waited for Professor Sprout to arrive. Then they started working on these totally dangerous plants called Tarantilus, that look like those insect-eating ones, except these were HUGE! They had a special food they needed and no one tried to guess to what creature those decaying skin and flesh once belonged to.
After a few minutes of feeding them, Ron got Harry to a side away from the others.
"Harry, there's something I wanna ask you. Why da hell was Malfoy staring at you in Potions yesterday, and now today in the Entrance Hall?! He wasn't just looking at you or anything; his eyes were like glazed over as if he was imagining something and he had this dreamy look plastered on his stupid face. Is there any way you know what this is all about?"
Harry felt numb for a while. He hadn't expected anyone else to notice Draco's behaviour, and he damn well didn't expect Ron to ask him something like this.
"I've got no clue. Maybe he was imagining hexing me with his wand or something because his father is in Azkaban."
"No. That wasn't it Harry. I'm not sure, but I think he was considering you.." Ron trailed off lamely, waiting for Harry to understand what he said.
"What do you mean 'considering' me?"
"You know.....like...um....you know .....er.." Stumbled Ron, trying to find the right words to explain it without being perverted. He took a deep breath and continued. "I think he fancies you, Harry. I think he's interested in you..." Ron looked uncomfortably into Harry's eyes. He wasn't the kind of guy who talks about stuff like this with his friends.
Harry looked into Ron's eyes, confusion growing in them. So Ron suspects something like that too, then.
Harry just shook his head and waved the suggestion away. "You are not telling me he's gay are you?!" He asked, trying, but failing to sound incredulous. "I mean c'mon, look at all the girls he's gone out with!"
"No Harry. There's definately something going on in Malfoy's fly-infested, stupid brain. Might involve him kissing you or something..." There, he'd finally said it. What he had been wanting to tell from the moment he saw Draco looking in Harry's direction. It felt kinda nice to have said it, and at the same time a bit embarassing.
Harry was shocked at first at this sudden comment, but soon recovered, or at least pretended to. In his mind, Malfoy kissing him would be the most gross moments of his life, but in Draco's mind, it would be the most enchanting and magical thing that'll ever happened to him - but whatever, anyways....
"I don't think so Ron." Harry said, trying to sound confident in what he was saying although he wasn't. "Malfoy's probably got some kind of trouble focusing his brain on normal things."
They both laughed at this and Ron just let the subject drop...... for now. (Mwahahahaha!! Ohh Harry, doesn't know what Ron has in his head at the moment!! Er.... actually he doesn't have anything in his head at the moment, but he'll soon have at least something - I mean he's gotta right?!)
The Gryffindors spent most of Herbology feeding the giant plants. Though Harry just acted as if he didn't care about Draco's behaviour, he kept thinking back to what Ron said. Was Malfoy really considering him, according to Ron and to a small part of his own sub-conciousness?
Of course he could see the attraction in Draco that made girls attracted to him as iron fillings is to a magnet. He could see why they looked at him with dreamy eyes and just walk past the same place over and over again just to bump into him.... Who could escape those wonderful, cloudy-grey eyes.... Who could sleep without feeling his warmth..... Who could breath without smelling his wonderful smell quite unique from anything they've ever smelt.... Who could walk past him without feeling the urge to ruffle his hair and to slip their fingers through those silky strands.... Who could wait to feel his sweet, pungent and warm breath on their skin.... Who could escape without a sigh when his wonderful milky skin rubs against theirs... Who could -
"Harry, are you sure you're ok?"
Ron had just brought Harry jolting back to the real world. Harry felt blank, being interrupted from such lovely thoughts. Slowly, realisation dawned into his numb brain. He stared horrified at Ron, who looked back at him with concern and confusion.
"Is there something wrong Harry?"
"NO-NO OF COURSE NOT!! I'M NOT A SPOON!!" Harry blurtered. He was feeling really confused right now.
Ron arched one red eyebrow and looked at Harry as though he was a hilarious hairy spider that meant no harm to human kind.....(er.....or something along the lines of that....)
"I mean - I'm alright. No need to - to worry!" Harry realised that he was sweating fast.
'Shit! Now you've done something stupid beyond your imagination, Harry!!'
/Quite right hun. Now you know why everyone call you 'The Large Teaspoon With a Cow'./
'WHAT??!! No one calls me that!!'
/I know. I wuz ju' playin' withya./
'.....Whatever! Just go away!!'
"I was just.....thinking about.........about something that happened.....on.....in.......er......um..... - it's just something that happened." Harry tried to cover up his stupidity.
"...O..K.... Harry, you do know that you can always tell me anything, right?"
Harry nodded, not exactly understanding why. It's not that he didn't trust Ron; he'd trust him with his life, but this was different, this was a feeling that he couldn't quite figure out.
He suddenly felt all alone, though the whole class was still there. He strangely felt that there was something that he had to face up to on his own, and that was not Voldermort, it was a feeling. He had to face a feeling on his own, and it was harder than anything he's ever done.
