LookitDom: Thank you Thank you! To all my lovely reviewers! I indeed received over 11 reviews! And because of that, I am quite happy! Also special thanks to Draeconin for the pointers, I thank you specially! XD and also sorry to Draeconin if I forget some of them occasionally and revert back to putting those mistakes in.

I would also like to inform people that Draco will now be turning 17, not 15, so now all of the characters are either already 17 or 16. I made this change because I don't like people under the age of 15 (or already 15) doing…things, and I only decided that some…certain… content will be added a few days ago. That's just me and that's how I'm like, I don't even like people who are already 16 doing things either. (shudders)

Oh, and MineGeorgi is back. XD

Thankies.

xXx

Harry silently creeped through the corridor's of Hogwarts under his invisibility cloak. He hated having to do this, and yet loved the excitement at the same time. The Gryffindor held his wand underneath the cloak with the 'Lumos' spell activated and guiding Harry towards the dungeons. Slytherin common room.

He had been in the Slytherin common room before, but he highly doubted they had the same password from years ago, so after lunch he grabbed his invisibility cloak and waited beside the Slytherin common room entrance, waiting for a Slytherin to say the password. To Harry's luck, Crabbe and Goyle were the ones to give him the password, unknowingly to them that Harry was listening. Of course they were the only ones stupid enough not to whisper the password, either that or they just weren't as paranoid or as suspicious as the other Slytherins. Thankfully Malfoy wasn't with them, although Harry did wonder where the blonde could be without his cronies to follow him.

Fortunately Harry didn't think about the subject any further because Malfoy was taking care of business in the lavatory and told Crabbe and Goyle to head back to the common room without him. Anyone in their right mind would doubt the fact that Malfoy would want Harry to look for him while he was on the loo.

Now Harry was walking through the darkened halls of Hogwarts. The password still fresh in his mind and Malfoy's birthday present tucked neatly in his cloak pocket.

Harry would have asked Dobby to deliver it for him before everyone awoke, but then Harry had the image of Malfoy threatening most of the house elves just to find out who gave him the present since Harry didn't sign the card.

The Gryffindor came to the entrance of Slytherin common room and whispered the password.

"Patefacio pro snakes."(1)

Harry thought the password sounded more like a spell. He also wasn't surprised by the fact the password contained the word 'snakes', figures Slytherin common room would open for a password about themselves. What Harry was surprised about was that Crabbe and Goyle could remember such a complicated password. Probably because Malfoy had to say it for them over and over again and eventually they got the idea. Maybe.

Little did Harry know that Crabbe was merely reading off a note Malfoy had scribbled the password down on and hurriedly rushing off to the boy's toilets after handing the password to Goyle.

The dark haired boy passed through the opening in the wall and walked through to find himself in the Slytherin common room. Now all he had to do was find the boys dormitories. Since Harry wasn't that familiar with the Slytherin quarters he guessed that the layout would be similar to that of Gryffindor's. He was proven right.

Harry walked up to one of the rooms and searched most of the beds, peering through the silk forest green curtains that hung lazily round the beds of the Slytherins. Although Harry had his Invisibility Cloak, he couldn't help but lose some of his Gryffindor courage at the thought of one of the Slytherins waking up and hexing him for spying on them while they slept, or worse, accusing him of trying to curse one of them while they slumbered. He kept his wand in his hand as a precaution.

Eventually Harry got to the last few rooms, he sighed as he pushed the door open to find five curtain drawn beds standing in the room as he expected. He silently opened the curtains to one bed, to find its resident to be none other than Goyle. Harry smiled to himself; he must be in the right room now. He walked over to the next bed, Crabbe. Harry silently thanked Crabbe for the password before closing the curtains and returning on his quest. The next bed held a boy that went by the name of Nott, and the next held Blaise Zabini. Harry turned his gaze over to the last bed; it must be Malfoy's. He stalked over to the bed and pulled the curtains back slightly, indeed he found a mass of blonde hair and a pale body, the body turned over to show Malfoy's face.

"Finally…" Harry sighed.

Unfortunately loud enough for the blonde Slytherin to stir slightly.

Harry clasped his hand over his mouth and watched the blonde roll onto his back; his covers were pulled down to reveal a bare chest. 'Malfoy sleeps with no shirt on? Figures,' Harry rolled his eyes before they made there way back to rest on Malfoy.

The weird feeling in the pit of his stomach came back again. Harry couldn't tell whether he felt ill, excited, angry or just happy. Whatever it was, it annoyed him.

Malfoy groaned deeply in his sleep, his hands clenched the sheets that kept the lower half of his body hidden and his body started to sweat.

Harry raised an eyebrow at the blonde. What was wrong with him?

His thoughts were soon interrupted by another louder groan from the Slytherin. His back also arched and his breathing became deeper.

Harry flushed at Malfoy's actions.

"…Draco?" someone whispered groggily and the groans of bed springs echoed throughout the room as someone moved from their bed.

Harry panicked, climbed into Malfoy's bed and drew his curtains. He heard foot steps heading closer, so for extra security Harry placed a locking charm on Malfoy's curtains. Amazingly Malfoy stayed asleep all through this, Harry thanked Merlin and was proud of himself for being so quiet and careful.

He then mentally kicked himself for forgetting he was wearing an invisibility cloak.

"Draco?" the voice whispered, Harry identified it to be Crabbe. He heard Crabbe trying hard to open the curtains, but to no avail.

"Guess he doesn't want to woken from his nightmare this time tonight…" Crabbe mumbled and foot steps were once again heard heading away from the bed.

'This time?' Harry thought, 'What did Crabbe mean "this time"? Does Malfoy get nightmares often?' Harry couldn't help fight off a grin at the fact that Crabbe was wrong saying Malfoy was having a nightmare, quite the opposite actually.

Draco groaned again and arched his back towards Harry. Their bodies touched and on the contact Draco moaned and pulled Harry down onto him. The only words that went through Harry's head at this moment in time were 'Oh shit'.

Harry could feel something poking into his leg, the words in his head started repeating themselves over and over again until he finally cleared them from his mind and thought up something that could help. He was about to pry Malfoy's hands away from himself until something rubbed against him, Malfoy's leg, in…that region of his body and Harry couldn't help but moan.

Now he had to run. Harry tried to reach for his wand that he placed in his pocket before climbing onto the bed. After grabbing said wand, he tried to think up the words that would undo the locking charm that he placed on the curtains. Instead he moaned again, Malfoy seemed to like the noise Harry made.

Harry turned red, quickly muttered the charm and clambered out of the bed. Malfoy whined from the loss. All Harry could do was stand there in a daze over what just happened. Hopefully he would be able to just forget about what happened and move on with his life. But the sudden intensified feeling in his stomach told him otherwise. He glanced back at Malfoy who seemed to pine over the loss of warmth and contact. The feeling intensified even more just by glancing at the blonde.

Harry quickly threw the gift at the end of Malfoy's bed and bolted out of the room and out of Slytherin territory.

Once back in his own common room, Harry threw his invisibility cloak off, revealing a flushed face and collapsed on the settee in front of the empty, cold fire place. He could still feel that his face was still blushing even though the walking distance from the dungeons to Gryffindor tower was over ten minutes, plenty of time for something like that to be rid of itself.

Unfortunately luck was not on Harry's side today.

He didn't even stay long enough to hear that one of Draco's moans sounded much like the word 'Harry'.

xXx

The morning sunshine bathed Hogwarts in light, shining through the seemingly clean windows and managing to shine through the thick curtains that were made to block such light.

Groans were heard all through the school as pupils and teachers alike got up from their cosy beds to get ready for the day ahead. The occupants in Gryffindor tower went about their usual morning business, and most were quite surprised to see a sleeping Harry Potter on the couch in the common room.

"Harry! Harry!" Hermione shook her best friend.

"Mmm…what?" Harry sat up and looked at Hermione sleepily. He removed his glasses to rub the sleep out from his eyes.

"Harry! Why are sleeping in the common room? Didn't you go to bed? I though I saw you go up to the boy's dormitories last night," Hermione looked at her friend with worry written all over her face.

Harry placed his glasses back on and looked back up at Hermione. Realising what she was saying he answered her. "Well…My bed wasn't good enough," he said while blushing, glancing at the other students around them that were obviously listening in on their conversation, some shrugged to their friends and turned away, happy with the answer, while others kept listening.

Hermione raised an eyebrow at his answer. "Your…bed wasn't good enough?"

Harry nodded in response and before she could say anymore he jumped off the couch. "I better get my books together for today!" he said and ran off.

Ron watched grimly from the corner of the common room. He shook his head and summoned a house elf.

"Dobby, would you be so kind as to place this in Draco Malfoy's drink for me?" Ron asked the house elf before he ran off looking for Harry.

"Dobby would be most happy to do the bidding of a friend of the great Harry Potter!" the elf squeaked and gratefully took the liquid that swam in the vial.

Ron rolled his eyes. "Yeah, thanks." And with a soft 'pop' the house elf disappeared.

The students in the Slytherin dungeons woke up as sleepily as the Gryffindors, taking their time leaving their warm beds to get ready.

One Draco Malfoy woke up slowly; he would usually wake up a little earlier than everyone else so he had extra time to make himself immaculate for the day. Then again, he always looks immaculate, to himself at least. But this time, a certain…dream made him more tired than usual.

"Didn't want to be woken up this time?" Crabbe grunted as he saw the Malfoy wake up.

Draco processed what was being said to him while shaking the remaining sleep off him. Once he realised what his fellow Slytherin had said, he blushed as images from last nights dream were shoved into his mind. Maybe Blaise was right, maybe he was getting…a little obsessive with Potter. He knew very well he was gay, but Potter?

Fighting to regain his composure and wanting to feel his power in front of Crabbe he snapped, "What do you mean?"

"I heard you having another one of those rare nightmares, but there was a locking charm on your curtains, so I couldn't get to you to wake you up."

Draco blinked and glanced at his curtains questioningly. "May I ask you, why in Merlin's name would anyone not want to be woken up from a nightmare? Especially one's as horrid as mine," he cringed. Although he was extremely glad Crabbe thought he was just having a nightmare, and he vaguely wondered if he really was that loud to wake up even Crabbe. He blushed again.

Crabbe shrugged and went to the bathroom after Goyle came out.

The blonde Slytherin shook his head and started to get up when something out of the corner of his eye caught his attention.

It was a small green parcel box, wrapped with a thick silver ribbon.

'A present for me I assume,' Draco thought and lifted the present up to examine it.

'From Crabbe? No, too neat to be from him,' he lifted the tag and inspected it.

'To Draco,

Have a Happy Birthday.'

No name, no sign showing who it's from, although the scrawly handwriting seemed vaguely familiar. Maybe a house-elf delivered it, that way Draco could threaten them to tell him who it's from.

The Slytherin pushed the thoughts aside until after he opened his gift. He undid the ribbon and practically ripped the lovely green paper off the box because the curiosity inside him was screaming to hurry up.

A small black velvet box once concealed in the green paper revealed itself. Draco eyed the box and proceeded to open it.

His eyes fell upon probably one of the most beautiful things he had seen.

Green stone shone in the sunlight that seeped through the windows, making the snake shaped stone almost seem alive with energy. The fragile silver chain coiled on the foamy surface inside the box and shone almost as elegantly as the stone. The Slytherin could tell that the necklace was crafted with gentle care.

Only one word and question crossed through the young Malfoy's mind.

'Who?'

All thoughts of threatening house elves vanished as he continued to gaze at the magnificent gift.

He had to find out who gave it to him, and he will.

(1)- Patefacio pro snakes – Latin for 'Open for the snakes'. Yes I know, cheesy password, but hey, I'm a little brain dead today.

LookitDom: I apologise! I said the prank would appear in this chapter (I think) but it hasn't. The reason being that I thought this was a good place to end. Lame I know, but that's life. And anyway, I think I made up for it by putting Harry in an awkward position.
