1:10 pm.

for once, I actually felt a genuine connected between Potter and I. Sorry. Harry and I. I saw him vulnerable, but not I'm a defensive way. I saw him vulnerable in a sympathetic way. I got to see a small side of him that I hadn't had a chance to fully see.

I suggested we do something fun, so we apperated back to London, then he took me into a store. It was a grocery store- I had never been in one before. He bought a bottle of what he called "pop" and a few snacks he promised me were good. He bought a few more things, and it confused me the whole time he was paying for everything.

"Mjnd explaining the blanket?" I cut in as we were walking out, but he shrugged.

"We need a moment of peace before we get back to everything. something to clear our minds and relax." He said, and I nodded, but I was still just as confused. "I know a field that isn't too far. we can have a small picnic and you can try the pop."

"It looks fizzy." Harry nodded, and I shuddered. Fizzy drinks had always been a horrible texture for me, so I never drank them. But...He promised it was good. "Alright..."

We walked for what seemed like a long time (but according to Harry, it was only five minutes). He led me into a short grass field, and I felt like I was I'm a horror movie, bring led by a killer to my death...but my nerves calmed when he layed out the blanket and sat down.

"Sit." He patted the blanket and I sat dkwn about a foot away from him. He poured a small amount of the fizzy drink into a red plastic cup he bought, then gave it to me. I gave him a skeptical look, and took a sip of it.

I cringed, but it didn't taste good. the fizzy texture on my tongue and my throat made me want to gag though.

"is it good?" I nodded, but I put the cup down.

"Yes, but I dont enjoy it enough to finish.." He nodded and finished mine, pouring what was left in the bottle into the cup.

"It has high amounts of caffeine in it. I didn't figure you would enjoy it all that much." He sighed, then looked at me. We shared of moment of silence.

1:25 pm

He shared a few minutes of small talk. Even if I've known him for over 7 years, it felt like I knew close to nothing about him. I always made up crummy rumors to make myself believe about him. I made myself forget that he was a real person with real feelings and real experiences.

I learned that Cho was his first kiss, and the Weaslette his second. I learned about his past with his muggle relatives, and I shared a bit of information about myself on the short 15 minutes we were sitting together.

It made me realize how awful I am to him. How awful he was to me. We had an incredibly toxic relationship all our lives, and we did nothing but make it worse. we always made up crappy rumors and excuses to hate eachother, but it turns out- we are similar in a lot of ways.

May it be the abuse, the trauma, relationships, feelings, of just favorite foods and colors, we could agree on a lot. I never thought I could be so civil I spent my whole school life hating. I knew Harry felt the same.

......

"we should really get going. we're wasting too much time." Harry said after yet another moment of silence. I helped him clean up, and I kept the blanket folded in my pocket. I put a spell on It that shrunk it down to be tiny.

"Wbere to next?" I asked, and I saw him switch to his thinking face...

"I heard about this place-"

"im listening."

"it's called 'The Graveyard' and it's like a giant nightclub for deckers and their friends. we will have to take a train to get there, though. a few, actually, so it may take at least a few hours..." I saw his eyes shift onto the ground, but I nodded. we had time. we had enough time to travel there and still have a good time.

"a nightclub, huh? sounds fun, honestly...We have time..." I nudged him with my elbow. "take me there."

He nodded, grabbed my hand, and pulled me away. We were off on another adventure.
