Chapter 2

Harry was starting to feel increasingly annoyed at Ron and Hermione. The three had arranged to meet at the library at the very start of lunch to discuss their latest group assignment: Inventing their own spell. It was now a couple of minutes until the end of lunch, and they still hadn't showed up. Suddenly he heard some giggling. Ron and Hermione walked into the library. Ron was blushing and Hermione was the culprit for the giggling. "Oh, hi Harry." Muttered Hermione, embarrassed. "Where have you two been? I've been waiting for ages!" Harry snapped. "Oh, yes, well, erm, you see... Ron stuttered. "We arranged to meet here at the start of lunch. Now it's almost class time." Harry said, waiting for an excuse. "We're so sorry Harry. We've been a bit... busy, that's all." Answered Hermione. "Doing what?" "Um, well....oops, look at the time! I've got to get to class. See you!" Ron sprinted off. "Me too." Hermione hared after Ron. They were soon out of sight. Harry made his lonely way to his Transfiguration class. He sat at a desk, pulled his books out and sat there, looking around at his classmates. His eyes scanned Draco Malfoy, and as they did, Harry's heart skipped. What was going on? Later, in the Gryffindor Common room, Harry was daydreaming about Draco. Why couldn't he stop thinking about him?
