Flashback-
The cheer of the corridor of a certain High school was the same as every morning. A fair- haired boy was walking with his friends towards the courtyard. Their usual place to hangout. They watched the sun go down together and that's when it started.
"Hey Draco, haven't seen you bickering with Potter since middle school." Pansy said.
"I like to leave him to live his life." Draco said.
"Dude, you should go back to that. It was fun to watch!" Blaise said.
"I'm past that, Blaise. Besides, I think we should let him be with his sorry life." Draco smirked.
"Hey Draco! Want to make a bet?" Pansy jumped up.
"What?"
"I'll give you six months. Make Potter fall for you!" She said slyly.
"Pansy, Get over it."
"If you do it, I'll stop crushing over you and~ I'll make Blaise and Goyle dress up as girls and dance around school for a week!"
Maybe, it seemed good enough.
And he did it.
He thought for a while.
"Sooooo~ You up for it?" Pansy asked.
"Yeah." He smirked.
"Great! Time starts tomorrow!"
And that was it. That was all it took. That was all it took for him to decide to break a heart.
The next day, he slid down to the seat next to Harry Potter. And started a conversation. His friends kept glaring at him. But he just smirked.
Harry was a shy and quiet kid. Not speaking up much. And never showing his real emotions.
Draco found it interesting. This was his new toy. His new play-thing.
But it was all different for Harry.
He couldn't figure out why Draco Malfoy of all people wanted to talk to him. Let alone become friends. What happened to the boy who bullied him? The boy who passed hurtful comments? The boy that hated him?
He wanted to figure out why Malfoy had changed all of a sudden. But there was something in him that stopped him from asking.
He went with the flow.
The days passed slowly and it became more obvious. Hermione and Ron talked to Harry about Malfoy's new attitude and he told them he didn't know either. He wanted to know too but he held his curiosity.
"Hey Potter, wanna hang out after school?" Malfoy asked one day.
"I guess." He said before he went back to his reading.
It helped him get away from all the thoughts he considered unnecessary. To get away from the stares. From the world. It helped him in a way. It soothed him down.
Malfoy had started asking those questions more often. Harry didn't decline. He had nothing to do and saw it as good that Malfoy had changed. He didn't know what awaited him.
And when they turned friends, it was accepted by Hermione and Ron and all four of them became friends.
It was all going just fine.
A sly waits for the best moment,
To strike his plan,
Like the storm awaits the best weather,
To strike a land.
I know it's short but next chapter will probably come out tomorrow. I hope so. Thanks for reading. Don't forget to review!
