Chapter 24
Draco couldn't form coherent thoughts. He was in his own blissful world right now. The memories of last night was rampaging in his head as he stared at the black mop of hair of Harry in front of him, how he tangled his fingers into those locks.
"Mr. Malfoy, are you even listening?" Professor McGonagall said, irritated, looming over Draco. He was suddenly pulled away from his thoughts and didn't know what was happening. He looked around and found everyone staring at him. What were they supposed to be doing, anyway? He looked at his Professor and muttered an apology.
"5 points from Slytherin. As I was saying to tranfigure your..." Professor McGonagall began as she walked back to the front of the room. Draco sighed. He needed to stop thinking about Harry all the time. He rubbed his forehead and began taking down notes.
"Draco!" a female voice from behind him called. He looked around and found Hermione walking towards him.
"Yes?" Draco asked as he remembered he needed to ask her help in buying Harry his present. "I actually needed to ask you something."
"Oh? What is it?" Hermione asked.
"Its about Harry's present for Christmas, I was wondering if you might be able to help me find something since we have a Hogsmeade weekend coming up."
"Oh! I was going to ask you the same thing, actually, I was going to invite you to come with me to buy him a present. Well this is great then!" she said smiling.
"I guess it is. Then let's meet at the Entrance Hall this Saturday at 10? If that's alright with you, I mean." Draco proposed because he knew he needed alot of time to pick a present.
"Sure. See you, then." Hermione said as she walked away, towards the Ravenclaw dormitories. Draco began walking towards his own dormitories as he still needed to finish essays for Potions and Transfiguration. As Draco was entering the portrait hole he found Harry walking towards him.
"Um, could you help me with my Potions essay?" Harry asked sheepishly. Draco smiled. Harry really was an idiot when it came to Potions and he was so glad that he was good at it, this way he has an excuse to be with Harry.
An hour later they were still there, sitting and actually writing the essay, only writing.
Harry was grinning to himself as he watched Draco loosen his tie in exasperation. Harry actually already knew what to write for Potions, he'd actually finished it already but he needed an excuse to be with Draco. He just couldn't get enough of the other boy. It was as if all the years which passed by wherein they didn't talk and would have hexed one another without another thought had made him feel empty and desperate to be with the blonde.
"I just don't understand what you don't understand. I mean, its bloody simple really it's just-" Draco began but stopped when he saw Harry trying and failing to contain his laughter. "And what're you laughing at? Its been a bloody fucking hour and you still don't seem to understand the concept of using the newt's tail in- What? What are you laughing at?"
"I, um, actually finished writing the essay yesterday." Harry whispered and watched as Draco's expression shifted from confusion to understanding then to annoyance and finally in to wonder. Harry smiled.
"So, then, why did you ask for me to come and help you?" Draco asked carefully.
"I wanted to spend some time with you."
"Then why were we attempting to write an essay which you already wrote?" Draco asked in an irritated tone.
"Well you seemed so set on writing it that I just played along." Harry responded sheepishly.
"Do you mean I could have been snogging the living daylights out of you that whole hour?" Draco asked unable to keep his usual demeanor and ultimately losing his cool facade. Harry couldn't help but smile. He really adored and loved Draco and it warmed his heart when Draco's bluntness hit him square on the face when it was about how much Draco wanted him back. Harry walked towards Draco and stopped when their noses were almost touching. He caressed Draco's right cheek and leaned forward, touching his forehead with the other boy's then smiled.
"Draco, do you have any idea how much I love you?" Harry asked quietly. Grey eyes were boring into green when finally Draco spoke.
"I do hope its as much as my love for you." Harry kissed him. He just couldn't help it, he wanted the blonde so much that it hurt. Their kiss was a slow yet desperate one, reflecting their need for one another.
"So, uh, do you want to sleep in my bed tonight?" Harry breathed out.
I know its not long and I haven't written in awhile but please still do leave your reviews as I need as much help as I could get in continuing this fic. What do you think Draco should get Harry? Tell me in your reviews. Thanks!
