Disclaimer: I own nothing, except for...Penelope.
Summary: AU. Draco Malfoy moves from his old home to a new town where he meets the everpopular Harry Potter. Will Harry's popularity get the best of him? Or will Draco be able to take him away from the crowd? HD Slash!
Warnings: OOC-ness, boy/boy loving, and...other stuff.
AN: Well, here's the next chapter! I tried to make it as long as I could! This one's mostly about what goes on during Draco's morning. As I read all the reviews, I couldn't help but notice that most of them consisted of "poor Draco!" It was very amusing. Also, a few of you guessed that Draco's ex was Blaise Zabini, Marcus Flint, Severus Snape, or some other Slytherin. My first choice actually was Blaise Zabini, but I thought that would be too predictable. So I decided to choose someone from a different house, since most of you wouldn't have expected that. This chapter will probably give away who Draco's ex is though, so I bet there will be a few several different dedications next chapter! Anyway, on with the story!

The next morning, Draco and the rest of the household woke up to an unwanted ringing from Draco's alarm.Though Draco didn't really need an alarm to wake up every morning, he continued to set it everyday. Slowly, Draco lifted his arm up and pressed one of the several buttons that would turn the noise off.
Not long after was Draco striding through his bedroom to the door with a pair of clean clothes. As soon as he opened his door, his sister Penelope had screamed so loud you could hear it a mile away. Draco instantly dropped his clothes and covered his ears. He should have been used to the high- pitched screams that usually came from either Narcissa or Penelope.
As quickly as the scream came, it had left and Penelope had came running out of her room and smacked into Draco. Narcissa slowly came out of her room, looking as though she had not heard the scream and had just woken up.
"Mother! There was a mouse in my room!" Penelope squeaked as she jumped up from the floor. "It was huge and hairy! I think it wanted to eat me mother!"
Narcissa's eyes widened at the thought of having such an atrocious thing in her house. She quickly went back to the way she had looked when she had entered the scene and looked at Draco, who was still on the floor.
"Draco, when school has ended, you will go to the store and pick up some mouse traps." Narcissa ordered before she returned to her room.
Sighing and picking up his clothes, Draco made his way to the bathroom before his sister or mother had a chance to. Without the mouse incident, this was usually how his morning started off. Once inside the bathroom, he stripped his clothes off and turned on the warm water. Once he believed the temprature was right, he slipped into the bathtub.
In the corner of the tub there were two bottles of shampoo and conditioner. He grabbed one of the bottles and began to wash his hair with the shampoo first and then the conditioner. When he had finished that task, he reached for the soap and began to wash his body. When he was completely done, he drained the tub and wrapped a towel around his waist. He stepped infront of the mirror and looked at his reflection.
Draco blow-dryed his hair and then brushed out all the tangles. He changed into his new clothes and headed out of the bathroom. As soon as he closed the door, Penelope came rushing out of Narcissa's room and immediately ran for the bathroom. Draco managed to move out of the way in time. Not long after he heard his mother yell something along the lines of, "Penelope you horrible child! I'll get you back for that!"
All of this was so predictable to Draco. He knew almost everything that would be said and done in the mornings. It was like a routine for all of them. Nothing ever changed in their family.
Draco held onto the banister as he made his way down the stairs for breakfast. He opened one of the cupboards and took out a bowl and then reached into one of the many drawers for a spoon. Once he was successful, he poured himself some cereal and grabbed the milk from the refrigerator.
As he slowly poured the amount of milk needed for his cereal, he heard a loud crash followed by a thud. Draco shook his head and placed the milk in the fridge. He quietly sat down and ate his breakfast. Draco never drank anything when he ate breakfast because he always believed that it ruined the taste of the cereal. It never made sense to any of his family members though.
Once Draco was finished eating, he made his way to the downstairs bathroom and quickly brushed his teeth. There were two bathrooms in his house, so he never knew why Penelope and Narcissa fought over the upstairs one. He shrugged and went back to brushing. Feeling refreshed and clean, he headed for the door, grabbing his bookbag and keys along the way.
"I'm going mother!" Draco said as he exited the house and made his way over to his car. He opened the door and sat in the drivers seat. As soon as he started the engine, he turned on the radio so he could listen to some music on the way to school.
Draco just remembered that this was his first day at his new high school. He sighed and mumbled. "Oh well. It's just school."
~*~
It didn't take Draco to drive to Hogwarts, his new high school. Honestly, Draco thought it was an unusual name for a school but he didn't think about it after that. After he parked his car and made his way onto the campus, he pulled out his schedule. He had first period with Professor Snape in room D- 30. Where were the D buildings anyway?
As Draco walked around not really searching for the building he was looking for, he wondered if he had to call his teachers 'Professor'. Of course at his old school they had to call all the teachers 'Professor', but was it really necessary? Draco's musings were cut short by someone bumping into him.
Unfortunately for the other person, they didn't have as much grace as Draco did to not fall. "Watch where you're going." They mumbled to him as they stood up and brushed dirt off their clothes.
Draco saw that it was a girl with bushy brown hair and big brown eyes. She had been carrying a large assortment of books which were now all sprawled out across the floor. Draco quickly bent down to retrieve the books when the angry girl barked out at him.
"Don't touch those!"
"Okay, okay! Sorry!" Draco said, throwing his hands up in the air. He watched as the girl's expression changed from angry to happy. She looked like she would burst if she got any happier.
"Harry!!" She exclaimed.
Draco raised an eyebrow before slowly turning around to stare into emerald green eyes. Harry smirked as he looked at Draco."Potter." was all Draco could say before Harry was attacked by the bushy-haired girl. She had thrown herself onto him and gave him a tight hug.
Something was different about Harry though. Draco just couldn't seem to figure it out. 'Wait a minute' Draco thought as he looked at Harry. 'Where's Potter's glasses?' Harry no longer was wearing his golden framed spectacles. 'Wow. He looks quite attractive without those horrible glasses hiding hid gorgeous eyes.' Draco said to himself.
Wait a sec. Back it up. Rewind.
Draco had willingly said Potter was attractive and had gorgeous eyes? He didn't think that. Potter was just sexy. 'Wait! That's even worse!' Draco scolded himself as he looked over at Harry and the girl giving him strange looks. 'Note to self: Don't argue with yourself inside your head.'
"Malfoy. I had been expecting to see you soon, but I didn't think it would be this soon." Harry said to Draco. Then Harry pointed to the bushy haired girl and said. "Malfoy, this is my friend, Hermione Granger."
"Pleasure to meet you." Draco held out his hand to Hermione, but she didn't move.
"Likewise" She replied giving him a nasty look.
Harry grinned at Hermione's actions and watched as Draco slowly dropped his hand back down to his side. He turned his attention to the person who was walking a little bit away behind Draco and was making his way towards them all. 'It's about time' Harry thought.
Draco turned around yet again and nearly died at what he saw. There in front of him stood the man he had feared since his father had died and the man who knew almost everything about him. The man whose father he had accidentally killed. The man who had almost destroyed his family. The man who took advantage of him when he was weak. But most of all...
...There stood the man who had helped Voldemort kill Lucius Malfoy.

AN: There you go! I know I said it would be long, but I just didn't feel like writing, but I didn't want to make you guys wait longer. Since nobody guessed who it was, I shall give you all one more chance! If you can't guess who it is by now, then I don't know what to tell you! Lol. Here's a hint, It's not a Slytherin. Now onto the responses to my awesome reviewers!
MustIBeAMalfoy: I would say that draco's ex is about the same age as Draco. It's not Blaise though. *dances with you* No more glasses! lol. I'm glad you like my story! Don't worry, there will be plenty of Harry/Draco soon. I just need to work on my...Kissing scene skills. Now I know why you liked the long reviews I sent you. Theyre fun to read! lol! Love ya! *huggles*
NayNymic: Don't worry, I don't think I would be able to have Draco suffer THAT much. I agree with you that it should be for Harry. All the more sweet on their first time! Thank you! *hugs*
Starr Light1: I know it's dramatic. Should Drama be my second genre? I don't think it will be entirely OOC. I was hoping to have them act like the characters in the books for a little while. I'm glad you liked the door descriptions. I liked them too. I actually had my mom help me with them. She could only think of the Ballerina one though. Thank you! *hugs*
Mon2: I thought the last chapter was sad too. Harry is supposed to come off as a jerk in the begining, but he really isn't! *huggles Harry close to her* Hawwy is such an adowable wittle angel! As for him using Draco to show off... well, I don't know. You'll see wether or not soon! Thank you! *hugs*
Kimmy15: Hello! Alot of people feel bad for Draco. Heck, even my mother feels sorry for Draco, and she doesn't even know who he is! *grins* I'm sure Harry will make him feel more than better... And Blaise wasn't his boyfriend. Sorry. Thank you! *hugs*
GiRliEgIrL6: Thank you! *hugs*
sapphire-wolf1: Lol! Your review made me laugh when I read the first sentence! I couldn't stop laughing and my mom thought I was going crazy or something. Actually, the guy had just come into the room, and saw Draco with the weapon and... Eh, the details will be explained eventually. Don't want everyone to know EXACTLY what happened. Thank you! *hugs*
Micha: I bet alot of people don't like the sound of Draco's Boyfriend. Thank you! *hugs*
Lin (grievinggodess@aol.com): At least you were honest! You're the only one who has said that they had a problem with the birthdates! I'm so happy! Thank you! I had forgotten Harry's birthdate, but I couldn't go to my books like I used to because they were being borrowed by people. I couldn't remember! Thank you for your opinion. It really does matter! I also agree that in an AU, you should still keep certain items the same as in the books. Thank you once again! *hugs*
Immortal Memories: Lol, two years? Not even ONE word? lol I'm sorry about that. Thank you though! *hugs*
Yana5: Harry is a meanie because he wants to be shown to the public as tough so he can become more popular. It's part of what the "In crowd" wants. Hot, smart, strong guys. Thanks for reviewing! *hugs*
Euphory: Lol. Innocent little virgin Harry's? I'm sorry to say that Draco's ex isn't Blaise or marcus. Infact, it's not even a Slytherin! My friend came up with the idea of who it should be and I didn't want it to be a Slytherin, so I agreed with her. Harry is the mean one, and Draco MIGHT suffer. Nobody knows for sure though. Except for me! MWAHAHAHA! Thank you! *hugs*
