Chapter Five: I'm Breakable

The Malfoys were a prominent pureblood family, one of the highest in 'pureblood society.' Certain things were expected from a witch or wizard carrying the Malfoy name. They were to have top of the line everything- friends, grades, clothes, etc. But love was never apart of this. The Malfoy men dated who they were told-or the best looking and richest pureblood girl they could get. They were often married off to the girl with the best family name. A prime example of this is Draco's parents. They weren't in love, they were just two people of the opposite sex from two honorable pureblood families. So, when Draco was told to date Pansy Parkinson, he did so without question. He never expected to care about her, but overtime he did-until he caught her cheating on him with another guy. With his pride wounded more than anything else, Draco left her, and was on the mend.

It was a cold Saturday, the wind was crisp and cool as it cut through the dying trees. Students buzzed with chatter of the day ahead. It was a Hogsmade weekend, and Quidditch season was starting. Autumn and Ginny had snagged up two of the three open spots for Gryffindor Chasers, while the other was take by a boy in 4th year. Harry had found two new Beaters, 3rd years, who happened to be cousins. Ron stayed on as Keeper and Harry as Seeker. With an air of excitement following her, Autumn left the castle with Ginny.

Hogsmade looked as festive as ever. Harry thought bitterly about how it was only a facade to the dangers outside Hogwarts. Voldemort was back, and so was the same panic. Harry had witness the terrors first-hand and there was nothing that could erase the gloomy thoughts of disaster from his mind. He had parted from Hermione and Ron, just wishing to find some place to be alone. He wasn't the one.

Ginny had run off with Dean, her boyfriend, leaving Autumn to wander around alone. She had made her way towards the Shrieking Shack, where she settled down on the ground and pulled out her drawing pad and pencil. She had just started to sketch the shack itself when Harry walked up.

"Where's Ginny?"

"Hiya Harry, how are you today?" Autumn said sarcastically

"Sorry it's just. . .usually you and Ginny are hanging out together." Harry looked over toward the Shrieking Shack.

"It's alright, she's off on a date with Dean. I didn't want to be a third wheel." Autumn continued to sketch as Harry sat down next to her.

Both of the teenager sat in silence a while. Harry leaned over and watched as Autumn shaded in the windows of the house.

"Wow-it looks exactly like it."

"It's not that good Harry-geez" Autumn playfully pushed him over and leaned back over her drawing pad to hide her blush with her long ebony hair.

Harry laid back and watched the clouds pass over, wishing he was one of them. Wishing he could just float away with out a care in the world. Wishing he could be detached from the world, not apart of a place where good people are brutally murdered. He thought of Sirius, and how much he wished he was here with him now. Harry glanced over towards Autumn who had goose bumps on her skin from the cold. Harry sat up and took off his hooded sweatshirt and handed it to her.

"Here, you look cold."

"Thanks, I am, its always so cold here." Autumn smiled at Harry and pulled the sweatshirt over her head. Their eyes met, and neither could pull away from the others gaze.

Harry and Autumn had the same eye color, green, but Harry's eyes were much darker and deeper. Behind those emerald eyes were pools of emotion, waiting to be unlocked. He had the kind of eyes you could get lost in and never find your way out or want to. Autumn's were cat like, in that they were light and she had a ring of golden yellow around her pupil. Their faces slowly moved closer and closer together until. . .

"I hate to break up this precious moment" An unwanted voice drawled

"What do you want Malfoy." Harry still hadn't broken eye contact with Autumn

"Just came for the view." Autumn snorted at his response, and Harry stood up to face Malfoy.

"Just because you screwed up your own bloody relationship doesn't mean that you have to screw up mine." Harry looking awfully threatening

"Get your facts straight Potter-she cheated on me." Malfoy said with a bitterness that Autumn had never heard.

"Maybe if you had a-" But Harry was interrupted by Autumn who was now standing in between them

"Both of you stop it!" Autumn said sternly

Draco Malfoy was not about to be out done by Potter, though.

"How's the potion going?" Malfoy turned towards Autumn

"Fine." Harry looked back and fourth between Autumn and Malfoy with his confusion evident on his face.

"What Potter? She didn't tell you about us? We're potions partners" Malfoy looked pretty pleased with himself at this point. Harry's face lit up with red hot anger and suddenly out of nowhere his fist smashed into Malfoy's jaw. Malfoy had dropped to the ground in a matter of seconds and Harry stepped over him and started walking briskly back towards the castle.

"Harry! Harry wait, I-" Autumn jogged after him, but Harry rounded on her too.

"WHY DONT YOU JUST GO AWAY!" Harry yelled at her. Autumn stumbled back a few steps and watched as he stormed off.

"I hate to say I told you so." Draco was on his feet and wiping the blood away from his newly busted lip.

"Told me what?" Autumn was still looking down the path Harry had ran down.

"That once Potter's novelty as 'The-Boy-Who-Lived' wore off he was just as arrogant a jerk as you can find."

"Harry isn't an arrogant jerk! Your the only arrogant jerk I know! Plus-I don't even think of him as 'The-Boy-Who-Lived!'" Autumn shouted at Draco

"Oh yeah, then what in the bloody hell is so damn great about Potter?" Draco couldn't understand why she was defending him after he had just screamed at her.

"He sees me for who I am, not what I am." Autumn walked over and picked up her drawing pad and followed down the path Harry had walked down minutes ago. Leaving a frustrated Draco standing, and watching her retreating back.

Autumn entered the common room to see Harry sitting right in front of the fire. The only person in the room, and yet it felt like it was the most crowded room Autumn had been in.

"Harry, I know I should have told you and I'm sorry, but there's nothing-" Harry stood up and began to talk, he still wasn't facing Autumn.

"I thought that you were different. That you weren't just another girl who liked me because I was Harry Potter, the boy who defeated Voldemort." But unlike everyone else, Autumn didn't flinch when Harry said the Dark Lord's name. Harry turned towards Autumn and walked up to her.

"But I was wrong. I am a person, a wizard, and contrary to popular belief I have feelings. I'm breakable." Harry took his folded sweatshirt from Autumn and walked up the stairs towards the Boys Dormitory.

The Next Day (Saturday)

Autumn was sitting in the Library alone but she couldn't concentrate. She was still lingering on what Harry had said to her. I'm Breakable. When she closed her eyes, she could still see him, and the hurt in his eyes. She could remember how the dim light had traced each of his features. Autumn opened her eyes and took out her drawing pad and once more began to sketch.

Harry had been practicing on the Quidditch pitch all day, and quite frankly it was wearing Ron and Hermione out just watching him. He wouldn't tell them what was wrong but he had been in a bad mood all day. It was lunch time and they shouted up to Harry where they were going, but he paid no heed and just kept searching for the snitch.

"Hey, where's Harry?" Ginny asked as she sat down. Autumn felt guilty and was worried. She also hadn't gotten a thing done in the library. She played around with her food abit then got up and went to the common room. She wanted to finish that sketch she had started in the library.

Autumn went up to her dormitory, where she wouldn't be bothered and went to take out her sketch. Only it wasn't there. She pick up her bag and dumped its contents onto her bed and began franticly searching through them.

"Hey whats up?" Ginny had come into the room.

"I can't find this sketch I'm working on!" Ginny knew how much Autumn loved to draw and began to help in the search.

"Where was the last place you had it?" Ginny questioned after they have sorted and resorted through Autumn's belongings.

"The Library!" The two girls sped towards the library. They looked all through the library but it was no where to be found. Feeling pretty bummed out, Autumn and Ginny headed towards the Great Hall for dinner.

Harry walked into the Great Hall, feeling pretty hungry and pretty tired. He heard someone calling his name and turned around.

"Hey Potter, lose something?" Pansy Parkinson yelled from the Slytherin table, which began to laugh.

"No. Why?"

"Its just I found this love letter, or picture rather." there was more laughter from the Slytherins. Draco leaned across the table to see what Pansy was going on about. It was a sketch of Harry standing infront of a fire. It was a really good picture of him and at the bottom were the words: so delicate, so invisible, so vulunable-"I'm Breakable"

Ginny and Autumn could see part of the sketch over Draco's shoulder. Autumn's eyes widened

"It that your sketch?" Ginny was astonished. She never knew Autumn had a thing towards Harry. In response Autumn gulped and started to make her way out of the Great Hall.

"If you don't believe me, then here." Pansy handed Harry the sketch. He took one look and knew who had drawn it. He turned just in time to see her go through the huge oak doors of the Great Hall. He went after her, knowing he had made a mistake. She was different after all.

"Autumn wait, please!" He called after her. She stopped dead in her tracks, knowing she would have to face him sometime, just wishing it wasn't now.

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have-

"No, It's really beautiful. Thank you." They met eyes again, but this time Harry didnt look mad. They were drawing closer towards one another.

"I'm the one who should be sorry." Harry whispered to Autumn, still clutching the drawing in his hand.

"You know, I didn't get a chance to finish that sketch." Autumn looked towards her drawing, dodging Harry's gaze. He cupped her chin in his hand and tilted her head upwards, where her gaze met his. It wasn't like when Harry was with Cho, he felt comfortable with Autumn

"Then I guess we'll have to finish it." He whispered softly onto her lips

"I guess we will." Autumn smiled as Harry's lips met hers. He put his arms around her waist, pulling her into him to deepen the kiss.

Draco Malfoy was walking down the hallway. He felt a pang of jealousy as he though back at the drawing Pansy had found. He turned the corner and walked into someone.

A/n: hahahahah suspense!! lol- I bet you all can guess who. now im going to answer a question from one of my reviewers!

Eniyou- On the infamous vs. famous thing- I used infamous because the reason Harry is famous is a bad one-his parents were murdered and there was an attempt on his life-and if you notice throughout the books he hates being famous. To him it is a bad thing. Plus infamous sounds way cooler than famous.

plz review-even tho i have no baked goods
