A few days later, it was Friday to be exact, Harry was sitting in the library when something strange happened.

Goyle ran in, followed by a vehemently protesting Draco.

"Oh shut up Malfoy, I'm never allowed to do anything fun!"

"Fun!? This is not funny Goyle!"

Goyle ignored him and called out a spell, his wand directed at Harry.

Just before Goyle's spell reached Harry, Draco jumped in for an unsuspecting Harry and called out, "Protego!" The spell rebounded and Goyle's hair turned completely green.

Harry, looking up in alarm and not understanding what's going on, looked confused at Draco.

"What the bloody hell do you think you're doing Malfoy!?" Goyle shouted furiously.

"Now it's not that funny anymore, is it, Goyle?"

"Blithering bastard! Was this really necessary!?"

"I told you not to do it! This is your own bloody fault!"

"You are such a bummer!"

"Merlin's beard just listen to me the next time I tell you not to do something! Harry has done nothing wrong! You had no reason to put a spell on him!"

"So you decided to have the spell rebound on me!?"

Draco shrugged. "It's your own fault."

Goyle left the library furiously.

"What in the name of Merlin just happened?" Harry asked.

"Well, Goyle tried to make your hair turn green with a spell and I made it rebound on him." Draco replied.

"Why did he want to make my hair green?"

"Because he thought it was "funny"." Draco made quotation marks with his fingers.

"He still hates me, doesn't he?"

"Yeah, I'm afraid that's not going to change... He's probably furious with me now, too." Draco sighed.

"I'm sorry to cause you so much trouble with Goyle." Harry said.

Draco looked at him confused. "What? No, this is not your fault! He just has to learn that he can't claim me! You can't help that."

"But still..."

"No! Hey listen to me, it's not your fault okay? Goyle is just a jealous prick."

Harry nodded. "Okay."

"And what are you doing?" Draco asked.

"I'm studying for the potions test."

"And how is it going?"

Harry sighed. "I added almost bloody Pearl Dust to a polyjuice potion."

"So it's not going well." Draco sat down next to Harry. "Let me see, I can help you."

"Really?"

"No I'm just kidding." Draco rolled his eyes.

Harry chuckled. "Thanks."

"No problem, okay, let's see... So..." Draco started helping Harry study for the potions test.

They spent hours studying together in the library, and Harry finally began to understand.

By noon he was ready for the test.

"Come on, let's eat." Draco said. "I'm sure you can do it!"

"I think so too, thanks again for your help, I really appreciate that."

"You're welcome. That's what Friends are for." Draco gave Harry a sweet smile.

Harry smiled back. His cheeks turned slightly red.

They went to the Great Hall and sat at their own tables.

"So, ready for the test?" Hermione asked.

"Absolutely! I have never been more ready for a test!"

"I'm ready too." Hermione said.

"I'm not ready..." Ron said with a sigh.

"You'll be fine, Ron." Harry said.

"Yeah sure, I don't think so..."

"Will be fine," Harry patted Ron on the back and stood up. "Come on, we have to go to class."

"Yeah, right." Ron said.

Ron and Hermione got up and they went to class.
