Drarry; A Comfort Story

Chapter 6

Draco's POV

I'm currently sitting peacefully in front of the fire, in the Slytherin Common room, while Pansy rushes in, shouting.

"DRAY! DRAY!"

"Yes, Pans?"

"I'VE GOT AN IDEA!"

"Whatever it is, I am most likely not interested. Go tell Blaise or something."

"It'll help you get closer to Potter~"

"I'm interested.."

"Okay, okay. What if you, Blaise and I invite Potter, Weasley, and Granger to the Room of Requirement this weekend for.. like, a game night, naybe."

This should be good.

"Okay.."

"I have plan, but I can't tell you because you might not agree."

Odd.

"Alright.."

I wonder what her plan is. I suppose I should go with it though, just so I can get closer to Harry. Maybe this will lead to me asking him out, or maybe this will test his love for me.. Oh, what am I thinking? This is just silly. And sooner than I had thought.

I just hope it's a good plan.

"Well?"

"Well what?"

"Aren't you going to ask Potter?"

"Right.."

I walk up to the Gryffindor Common room and knock on the painting. Granger slips out.

"Hello, Malfoy. You're looking for Harry, yes?"

"Yes, how did you know?"

"I know things. He'll be right out."

Harry's POV

I'm sitting on my bed, when Hermione comes in. I thought she wasn't supposed to be in the boys dormitories.

I'm about to mention that when she says something that almost makes my heart stop.

"Malfoy is waiting outside for you."

What could he need? Dinner isn't for another 2 hours. I stride out, and I'm greeted by a warm smile and an immediate hug.

I return the affection with no hesitation.

"Hey Harry."

"Hey Draco, need something?"

He steps back and looks down at the ground.

Is he okay?

"I wanted to ask you to come the Room of Requirement on Saturday, about 8:00 pm. Bring Granger and Weasley. You, me, and our friends are going to meet up there to play some games. Make sure to tell them."

That was unexpected.

"Alright. We'll be there, probably. See you after dinner?"

"Yea. See you after dinner." He smiles again.

I step back inside and am greeted by Hermione. Not even realizing how big of a smile I have on.

"What did he need? You have a whale smile on your face."

"You, Ron and I are invited for games with Draco and his friends. Saturday at 8:00 pm, in the Room of Requirement."

"Alright, should we tell Ron?"

"Tell me what?" Ron's walking over to us.

"We're invited to play games with Malfoy and his friends this Saturday at 8:00 pm." Hermione explains.

"They have to be up to something. This is very unlike them." Ron has a stern look on his face.

"Or maybe they want to make up for the years, Ron. End this stupid rivalry." I calmly assure him.

"Are you okay, mate? It's unlike you to say something like that. You normally agree with me."

"Change of heart." I think quickly.

Ron can't know what's currently going on between Draco and I. He's sure to hurt him and probably stop being friends with me.
