Chapter 4: Draco loves?
Draco picked up the phone. Dialled a number. Listened to the ringing and then froze.
"Hello. Hello?"
The voice was smooth and sweet. He hadn't heard it for a long, long time. He missed it. He hadn't even heard it a lot to begin with.
Earlier that day, Draco had gotten a letter from Hogwarts. A dinner dance. Bring a date. He went through his phone book and called around. He knew exactly whom he wanted to go with. Hermione Granger. He never really knew her. Just enough to be able to ask her out. He didn't want all his friends from Hogwarts to know he was gay! Only Harry knew that. Was Harry going to be there?
Why couldn't Draco talk to Hermione? It wasn't like he liked her or anything. Did he? He had been thinking about he a lot lately though. No. No no no no. He absoloutly, positively didn't love Hermione. Last time Draco heard, Hermione was with that git Weasley. Ewww!
Draco wondered who Harry was going with. Last time he heard… well… he hadn't heard anything about Harry for a while. For all he knew, he could have been dead! Surely not! He hoped not. Could 'The.One.Who.Lived' die?
Draco picked up the phone again, dialled Harry's number and listened to it ring.
"Hello. Hello?"
Well he was absolutely, positively alive.
