Draco malfoy knew that harry potter loved him deeply. He didnt know how he should feel about this. In a way he loved Harry the same way. Harry didnt know that draco loved him alittle, and he would rather keep it that way.Draco had lots of girls lined up for him as if auditioning for a perfect wife. He didn't want this, though. If he actually wanted a girlfriend, he would choose the one he wanted. He went to his classes and tried to ignore the girlish giggling and waving. He felt that the only girl he could talk to without feeling like he was a prize in a game show was Pansy parkinson.

Word came the next day, that the school Durmstrang had to be shut down on account of use of illegal magic in high quantities. The students from that school were to be sent to hogwarts for the rest of the year. They were going to be sorted like every other hogwarts student, and study in the hogwarts fashion.

" I wonder if they'll be nice," Pansy Parkinson was telling Draco.

" Maybe the ones that get sorted into Slytherin will be mean, like us," Draco said with a smirk.

" Earth to Harry," Ron weasley was saying,"are you dead or alive."

" W-what?" Harry potter said. He had been staring at draco.

"You were looking at him again weren't you?" Hermione granger said. She and Ron disliked Draco so much that they had taken to saying 'him' every time they talked about Draco. The two were very much aware of the fact that Harry was in love with Draco.

"Yes I'm in second year," Harry said stupidly.

"Uh...Harry....you're a third year," Ron said, putting in a great effort not to laugh.

"Oh for heavens sake," Hermione said. She slapped Harry,"Snap-out-of-it."

Harry backed away shaking his head,"sorry."

"That's quite alright,"Hermione said,"Anyway, what do you think the Durmstrang students will be like.?"

"I can't really say.I've never actuallly seen a Durmstrang student," Harry answered, stealing glances at Draco. He brought his attention back to his two friends.

"I hear some are extremely mean,"said Ron.

"That's right Weasley," came Draco's voice. Harry's heart lept. He turned around so fast that he accidentaly bumped into Hermione. He caught her before she fell though.

"What do you want Malfoy," Ron said.

"I was saying you were right," Malfoy said," They are mean, and they have a special student that can blow you away in an instant."

" You liar," Harry blurted out.

"No Harry," Hermione said," as much as I don't want to say it, he's not lying."

Harry tried not to look at Draco, for he knew how much he would blush if he did.

"Go ahead mud-blood, tell them about her,"Draco said.

Hermione glared at him, but turned back to Harry as a small group formed around them.

"It was a really long time ago,"Hermione began,"This girl got into a duel with a wizard,and she won, but then something happened to her aging, and it just stopped. She's over 600 years old, and she has amazing powers. Legend has it that You-know-who was after her, but lost his powers before he could even go after her."

Draco caught Harry staring out of the corner of his eye.He felt a burning sensation in his cheeck.

Why am i blushing, he thought, stop blushing.

"Go ahead,Granger. Tell them everything,"Pansy said.

"Thats pretty much it,except don't get on her bad side. No one ever turns out the same when they get on her bad side,"Hermine said.

"And now she's coming here?" Ron asked.

Hermione nodded. Just then, Proffessor McGonagall came into the entrance hall.

"Everyone is to report to the great hall immediately," she said and strode away.
