The first kiss
Two weeks had passed since Harry met Ron and Hermione; he had been grounded because of it but had been allowed on the phone so they kept in touch. Draco was still allowed to come round because he was a neighbour so Harry and he had become good friends.
It was Harry's first day of school and he went with his brother as agreed, the day went in a blur for Harry, moving from one classroom to another with a different person each time. Harry had spotted Ron and Hermione in three of his class's but he was always seated away from them. When it came to lunch time he had no idea where to sit, he felt lost in the hall surrounded by so many unfamiliar faces; it reminded him of how different things were. Normally Harry spent his lunch time surrounded by his friends or with Tom, he always knew where he was going to sit, he'd never had to things about it or look around for someone familiar.
"Harry! Harry mate over here!" Harry turned round to where the voice was coming from and let and smile form on his face, he saw Ron standing on his chair waving his arms while Hermione was trying to get him to sit down. As Harry's walked over he noticed more people he recognised from his classes. "Hi, how r u guys?" he asked after sitting next to Ron "I'm ok, wasn't English class great and the course work, I couldn't wait to get started on it so I went to the 6th form library and I got some great book to research the poem, oh an I saw your mum you never told me she works there, anyway she was a great help, she shown me some other book s which I never would have thought to use…". Harry stared wide eyed at Hermione he'd never seen her like this, he knew she like books and studying but this reminded him of…his mother. Harry heard Ron laugh quietly "don't worry mate you'll soon learn the fine art of pretending to listen to her" with that said Ron started to introduce him to everyone, Harry found he got on well with all of them and he soon forgot his early worries of things being so different.
The rest of the day went better, Harry knew more people so he always had someone to talk to through his classes. As Harry was packing his bag at the end of his lesson someone he didn't know approached him "hey new kid hurry up I have to show you around the school before you go so you don't need to follow people, and I have basketball practice in 5 minutes so it has to be quick." The boy who was speaking had dark hair like his own the difference was this boy's hair was neat while Harry couldn't neaten his hair for anything "come on then!" the boy said impatiently.
As Harry followed the boy around he remember Kevin would be waiting for him to go home and he wouldn't be impressed with Harry not turning up on time. He quickly forgot about it though as he tried to remember where everything was, which was very hard to do because he tour guide barely let him look at the door number before moving onto the next place. "Zabini, do you want him to get lost every time he steps out of a class!" Harry and the boy – Zabini stopped and looked around to face Draco "it isn't my fault I was lumbered with the job of being tour guide" Zabini muttered "well your not being a very good tour guide" Zabini suddenly looked angry "I was hurry it because you'd likely throw me off the team for being late to practice!" he half shouted. Draco smirked "yea I would but I've cancelled practice today so you can go home now" Zabini looked at Draco with his mouth wide open "but- but you've never cancelled practice" Draco smirked again and moved next to Harry "I have now goodbye Blasie".
As soon as Blasie walked round the corner Draco turned to Harry and smiled, "so how's your day been" he said as he started walking forward. "It's been good; I meet some of Ron and Hermione's friends so I always had someone to talk to in class." Draco wrinkled his nose "I don't know why you hang round with them. They have no money what so ever" Harry looked at Draco "they're good friends it doesn't matter how much money they have." He said calmly Draco raised an eyebrow "having poor friends doesn't help you up the social ladder though" Harry turned to Draco sharply "I don't know about you, but I don't choose my friends on the basis of how far up they can get me on the social ladder!" with that he stormed off ignoring Draco calling him back.
Harry was outside when he realised he hadn't been to his locker to get his coat. Harry wrapped his arms around himself in a vain hope of getting warmer while he wondered where his brother was. "I told Kevin you'd be getting a lift with me" Harry continued looking at the road "and he said ok?" Harry asked curing Kevin to hell and back for not being there when Harry wanted him to be "your mum was there so he didn't have much of a choice, come on the cars this way" Harry followed Draco to his car saying a soft thank you to the driver as he opened the door for them.
The car journey was made in silence; both boys choose to look out of the windows in stead of talking. Draco finally got the nerve to talk when they where near Harry's house "I'm sorry about what I said before" Harry looked a him with a raised eyebrow remembering a conversation they had the other day "I thought Malfoy's didn't apologise?" he asked "that just it, everything I do and say is the way the Malfoy's should do and say things, not the way I should. I don't mean them, well not all of them. I have to get use to doing thing my own way I want to be myself when I'm around you" Harry laughed "what so you can get higher up on the social ladder". Draco looked away for a second "no" he almost whispered after he took a breath he looked back at Harry "I wish it were that simple but it's so much more than that. I've only know you for two weeks but I've got feeling for you as if I'd know you forever" once he'd said that he leaned forward and pressed his lips against Harry's it only took a second for Harry to felt into Draco's embrace and returned the kiss.
A/N I bet you thought I wasn't posting anymore. I'm so, so sorry for the long wait but I've had a lot of these going on, I had to finish college which meant instead of writing fanfic's I had to assignments and observations and I had to study for my exam, once college was finished I was bogged down with work and trying to find work and my sister had a baby anyway that only left enough time to write dribs and drabs of this chapter which is why it took so long. I wasn't going to do the first kiss between Harry and Draco so soon but I figured I should because I've left the few readers I have waiting so long …..So I hope you liked it
