Sorry this took so long... R&R

HAPPILY EVER AFTER…RIGHT?

The rest of the vacation Harry and Draco spent as much time together as they could. They laughed and talked for hours at a time.

Harry found out that Draco had a sense of humor as he had always suspected, although it was much darker than Harry's.

Draco found out how bad Harry had been treated at home, and he was really upset about it.

"Just wait until I tell my father!" He said.

"Doesn't your father hate me? He wont help me." Harry looked scared.

"What? You've faced the Dark Lord, and it's MY FATHER that makes you scared?" He almost started to laugh.

"What!" Harry was getting irritated.

"Sorry. I guess he can be pretty scary at times. But he doesn't hate you Harry, even if you always mess up the Dark Lords plans. He will like you, I'm sure."

"Won't he just hand me over to Voldermort!"

"No! He is loyal to his family first, and I DO get everything I want. So if I want YOU he'll deal with that. He may not like it at first, but he really has no choice, he DID promise me I could chose my fiancé myself!"

"Doesn't everyone?" Now Harry was confused.

"No. It's common that pure blood families arrange marriage for their daughters and sons." He knew Harry never had heard of this, but it still seemed strange to him that Harry didn't even know the most common things.

"Oh." Harry said, and he suddenly felt sorry for… "Wait! Ron's a pure blood. Does he have to...?"

"No. Of course not. Nobody would want him to marry their daughters anyway. You did notice how poor his family is, right?" Draco almost smiled.

"I…" He didn't get a chance to finish as they heard someone coming.

"Tomorrow is Hogsmede day. I'll met you at Three Broomsticks at nine?"

"Kay!" They hurried away to their dorms. It was long after bedtime, and they shouldn't be caught out of their beds.

Draco's POV

'He doesn't like me.' I thought… But he didn't even once try to kiss me.' He had tears in his eyes. He wiped them away with furious movement. Dammit if someone should see him cry. And for such a stupid thing to.

He cursed as he went to bed. 'Why do I want him so much? I mean, we used to hate each other, but now…' Draco really didn't know.

He really hoped that everything would work out tomorrow. He would ask him then. 'Wait, what if he only want me as a friend? I'll ruin everything. I cant give all that up just for lust! But is it just that? I can't… This can't be happening to me! It just can't! Oh my god! I really have lost it. I… I can't… love him, can I?'

He had wanted Harry for a long time, but could it be love? Draco didn't know.

He wanted to go to sleep and get tomorrow over with, but for some reason he couldn't sleep.

He kept turning from side to side all night long, and slowly the night went past…

Harry's POV

'I love him so much it hurts, but does he love me? He didn't even say he liked me as anything but a friend. Bet he doesn't have any real friends…

How can I even think about using that to have him? It wouldn't be real.'

Harry didn't believe himself to be worthy of anything, and he definitely wasn't worthy of love.

'I wish I knew what to do.' He sighed, and his eyes landed on an advertise on the nightstand.

'Three Broomsticks is proud to be opening karaoke nights, every day after 7.'

'This could be it. I can tell him how I feel with a song. Now I only have to find the right one…' He smiled and went on to be much happier than before.
