I'm Here With You - Drarry

I'm Here With You - Ch2 Forget It

"Oh it's you." Harry said with a bored tone in his voice. As much as he liked Draco he still wanted peace and quiet.

Draco looked taken aback by Potter's tone, he was about to say something but as his eyes trailed down Potter's waist and hip, he found that the brunette's waist seemed tiny and petite, a bit feminine if he was to say, just perfect to fit in his hand, he also noticed how short Potter was which caused him to think what it was like if Potter ever sat on his lap while Potter's tiny legs wrapped around his waist. Draco's mind almost went unholy, thankfully before it went out of hand, Harry's fake cough distracted him.

"Earth to Draco." Harry said snapping his fingers in front of Draco's face, thinking maybe draco was sick, he held up two fingers. "How many?" Draco looked at Harry's face and furrowed his eyebrows in confusion and swatted Harry's hand away.

"What are you doing? Is that some weird mind trick!? If so, I'm not falling for it!" Draco said sounding dramatic, Harry chuckled.

Harry didn't realize he was laughing and giggling which Draco found it adorable, until Harry was actually laughing nonstop trying to get ahold of his self as tears started to form in his eyes. Draco thought Harry was sick so he thought he might try using the trick his parents tought him. He sat down next to Harry, cupped his cheek to bring his face up then checked his forehead if it was hot.

Harry finally got ahold of himself and stopped laughing. "It's fine, Malfoy im not sick." Harry said trying not to make things awkward.

Before they know it they're eyes locked for about a span of six seconds until Harry noticed Draco was still holding his face, cupping his cheek.

Draco noticed this then let go, both of them blushing. "I should erm, go it's-" Harry said.
"Yeah and i have-" Draco cut him off. "Er yeah me, erm uhuh" Harry replied awkwardly.

Draco thought about asking Potter if he wanted to meet again tomorrow. "Er, Potter."

Harry turned to look at draco "Hm?" Harry asked still blushing.

Draco suddenly backed down at the thought. "Forget it." Harry simply hummed in response.

Harry said goodnight to Draco but as he expected, Draco didn't say it back. He wasn't really expecting much knowing Draco doesn't like him at all. Mostly knowing Draco hates him.

About a few days later the weekend has arrived, Harry hoping he could go to hogsmeade, which of course he couldn't.

As he was walking he so happened to bump into Professor Lupin.

"Oh hullo Harry i see you aren't with your friends, want to have a walk?" Harry simply nodded in response.

As they reached the bridge Professor Lupin broke the silence. "I know it's not my business but i see how you look at Draco Malfoy." Harry looked up at Lupin wide eyes and nervous.

"Oh don't be nervous, Harry, It's normal, if it makes you feel better i used to date this friend of mine back in my younger days. He was quite a charmer." Harry noticed the Professor's voice falter.

Harry then decided to share what he felt with Draco hoping Professor Lupin understands. "I don't know anymore, I have l-liked him for so long but i just can't bring myself to express it i mean i know that he doesn't like me back so how would i know if even trying would do anything." Professor Lupin's eyes seem to soften.

"You remind me of your Father when he was still pining over your Mother at the time, I couldn't even count how many times She rejected him, he was so sure she doesn't feel the same way but still, he kept trying, until she finally gave in, they went on a couple of dates, until they fell in love." Lupin Paused before he could continue. "You see Harry you wouldn't know how he would feel until you actually try and express what you feel, give it some time and you'll feel comfortable expressing your feelings, on the other hand i also see how he looks at you."

After they talked Harry kept thinking about what Professor Lupin had said. Maybe he will give it a try, but for now he was feeling quite eager to rest.
