Harry walked through the dungeons behind some Slytherins to get into the Slytherin Common Room so he could give Draco his ring back.

"Hey Potter! What are you doing here!?" One of the Slytherins, he'd been following, turned around.

"Let me into the Common Room, I need to speak to Draco."

"I don't think so! No Gryffindors in the Slytherin Common Room!" The other Slytherin snapped.

Harry sighed. "I don't feel like arguing, just let me in so I can speak to Draco!"

"No! No Gryffindors in the Slytherin Common Room!" The Slytherins insisted stubbornly.

"Merlin I didn't knew Slytherins could be so stubborn!" Harry muttered. He pointed his wand at them. "I'm not going to repeat it again, let me in, I need to speak to Draco!"

"Alright, no need to get angry." The first Slytherin said.

The second muttered something and the wall split in two, clearing a passage.

Harry got into the Common Room.

All the Slytherins in the Common Room gave him a dirty look, but Harry didn't care.

He looked around for Draco. As expected, the Slytherin Common Room was completely green, which made Harry even more striking. He quickly found Draco and went over to the sofa where he was sitting with Crabbe and Pansy.

Pansy was the first to see him coming. "Potter? What the hell are you doing here!?" She said.

Draco looked up and a smile appeared on his face.

"I want to talk to Draco, if I may."

"No, you may not!" She snapped.

"Of course you may, calm down Pansy." Draco got up. "Don't mind her, she doesn't like unexpected visitors. Let's go to my dorm for a moment." He said as he left the common room into a corridor, followed by Harry.

Draco went down the corridor, past doors until he found his dorm and went inside.

Harry followed him.

"This is my dorm." Draco said.

Harry looked around.

Draco's dorm was very much like his, except that everything was green and there were no windows. And of course the dorm wasn't round like Harry's because Draco's dorm wasn't in a tower.

Draco sat down on his bed. "Well why did you come here?" He asked kindly. "How did you even get in? No Slytherin would ever voluntarily let in a Gryffindor."

"Oh they wouldn't let me in, I had to point my wand at them and threaten to get in." Harry sat down next to Draco.

Draco chuckled.

"And actually I just wanted to give something back." Harry said.

"Oh what is it?"

"The fact that you don't know what it is, means you don't actually miss it, so I might as well keep it." Harry said teasingly.

"Oh come on Harry, not funny, what is it?"

"I don't know." Harry said with a mischievous smile.

"Harry, tell me." Draco pouted playing along.

Harry slowly held up his hand, holding Draco's ring.

"Merlin, I always forget to ask it back." Draco said. "Can I have it back?"

"Do you mean this?" Harry teasingly held the ring out of Draco's reach.

"Yes." Draco said.

"You sure?" Harry said defiantly.

"Yes, very sure." Draco reached for his ring.

"No, I think I'll keep it for a while." Harry held the ring in his fist.

"No!" Draco whined. "Give it back!" He pouted again.

"You want it back?" Harry asked.

Draco nodded.

"Come and get it then." Harry got up and ran across the room.

"Merlin's beard Harry, you gotta be kidding me."

"You want your ring, come get it then." Harry said with a defiant grin.

Draco ran to him and tried to take his fist but Harry kept his fist behind his back. Draco got closer to Harry, trying to get his ring.

Harry backed up until he was against the wall.

Harry's heart was pounding because of Draco's sudden closeness. He looked deep into his eyes.

They stared at each other for a while.

Suddenly the door flew open.

"Goyle, I wouldn't..." Crabbe shouted hastily but it was already too late.

Goyle walked into the room.

Draco took a few steps back.

Goyle gave Harry a deadly look. "Oh, so now he's coming into our dorm too!?" He said furiously to Draco.

"Calm down Goyle! He just came to bring something back!"

"Oh yeah!? What the hell were you doing against that wall then!?"

Draco looked at the floor.

"Yeah, I thought so!" Goyle said furiously.

"So what!?" Draco said angrily.

"No Gryffindors are allowed in the Slytherin dorms!"

"What are you going to do about it!? He just came to bring something back!"

"It doesn't matter why he's here! It's not allowed!"

"Oh, sod off Goyle!"

"Sod off yourself Malfoy!"

Harry shifted from his position near the wall. "I should go..." He gave Draco his ring back.

"Harry, don't go." Draco said.

"It's getting late. I don't want to be a burden to anyone and Goyle clearly doesn't want me here."

"Exactly!" Goyle said.

"But..."

"It's alright." Harry said softly with a smile. "See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

Harry waved to Draco and left the dorm. "I'd keep an eye on Draco and Goyle if I were you." Harry said to Pansy and Crabbe as he walked past them. "They looked like they could stab each other."

Pansy and Crabbe immediately jumped to their feet and headed towards the dormitories.

"What took you so long?" Ron asked when Harry entered the Gryffindor Common Room.

"A fight between Draco and Goyle." Harry sat down next to Hermione.

"Since when do those two ever argue?" Hermione said.

"Ever since Draco and I have been friends."

"What's that got to do with it?" Ron looked at him confused.

"He's jealous, Ronald." Hermione said.

"Oh. What happened?"

"Goyle got mad because I was there and Draco thought he was being stupid and then they started yelling at each other. Then I left, because Goyle clearly didn't want me there. I've warned Crabbe and Parkinson, though. I'm sure it'll be fine."

"I hope so, I don't want to know what would happen if those two kept arguing." Hermione said.

"Probably not much good." Ron said.

Harry nodded.
