Everyone knows how these things start, one day you look up and the person who u least expect is the one you want. Nobody knows why, and nobody really cares… well almost nobody. There are people who will stand in the way of true happiness even if they know it will destroy a person they care about.
Midnight struck, and once again Harry Potter was wandering the corridors of Hogwarts. Now there is nothing odd about this, everyone knows that the Boy-Who-Lived wandered late at night, nightmares do strange things, and one of those is destroying one's will to sleep.
Harry was doing his normal loop around the halls, coming to a stop by a window overlooking the Black Lake. Tonight's scene though plays out differently then normal. Harry normally looks at the lake taking in the peaceful stillness of the lake, stars shimmering above, quietly contemplating how his life has come to this. This, being a pawn in a war where he is sure to lose his life, how is a 17 year old supposed to deal with that. Never being able to love, keeping people at a distance so they don't get close, hell he won't even be able to have the family that he's always dreamed of. Though maybe what he sees through the window tonight will change his destiny.
Staring out the window, Harry's gaze catches a flash in the moonlight, jerking his head back he looks intently over the grounds to see what it was. In the pale streams of moonlight streaking from above, Harry sees Draco Malfoy with his back against the tree facing the lake, his knees up, arms crossed over them and his head cradled on top.
Now if this was any other night Harry would have just walk away and let Malfoy be, but tonight something is calling him, telling him to go to the other boy. Harry makes his way to the Entrance Hall cautiously, keeping his footsteps quiet, and ear listening for any hint of noise coming his way. Luck seems to be on his side tonight; he makes it to the Entrance Hall in rapid time, and is out the door walking across the grounds quietly to the blond who caught his attention.
