I grabbed Potter's hand and led him outside. I was headed for the lake, I thought it would be more private than just walking outside.
..
After a while of walking we arrived there.
Draco: So, Potter. Earlier.. Uh.... What.. Whats wrong?
Harry: ...
Draco: C'mon, Potter..
Harry: Its.. Just.... Its stupid but, I heard my uh... Crush... Say they didn't like me..
Draco: Oh.. Im sorry..
Harry: Don't be. Its not like you were the one who said it...! Haha..
...
*Harry's Pov*
He led to the lake. It was probably the most private place this time of day. Other than the room of requirement.
Draco: So, Potter. Earlier.. Uh.... What.. Whats wrong?
Oh, seriously? Why did he have to ask me that..?
Draco: C'mon, Potter..
Ugh..
Harry: Its.. Just.... Its stupid but, I heard my uh... Crush... Say they didn't like me..
Draco: Oh.. Im sorry..
Harry: Don't be. Its not like you were the one who said it...! Haha..
Haha.
...
I-.. He's still holding my hand... Wow... Ha..
*Draco's Pov*
We just kind of stood there, awkwardly. I didnt know what else to say..
Harry: Uhm.. Malfoy..?
Draco: Hm?
Harry: You're... Still holding my hand..
Draco: Oh! Sorry! I didn't realize.
Ugh, I just said sorry to Potter.
Well, compared to everything I did so far, that's the least surprising thing.
Harry: Oh, It's fine Malfoy..
...
He looked, sad? But it was..
Draco: Heh..
Harry: What?
Draco: Just, your face.
Harry: What about it?
Draco: Just... Cute.
...
Shit.
*Harry's Pov*
He just...
C-Cute..?
Wh-what? I thought he-?
Aaaaaand... Fuck. I could feel my face go bright red.
Harry: Uhm.. Th-thanks..?
Draco: I- Sorry! Again.. I- Uh..
Harry: Heheh- It's fine Malfoy..
Draco: Yeah..

Harry: So, is that all you wanted to talk about?
Draco: Well- Yeah. But if you needed to talk about anything-
Harry: Uh.. Well I guess I could. talk about uh... You know..
Draco: If you want to..
Harry: Yeah.
Draco: Okay, lets sit.
*Draco's Pov*
UGH. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?! I KEEP STUTTERING AND SAYING SORRY AND- UGH.
MAYBE..
Maybe...
Pansy was right and I... I needed to think about it, to sort out my thoughts.
But for now, I wanted to listen to Potter. Ugh. I-.. I wanted to help him..
