This is my first story btw so sorry if it's a bad quality

Harry pov~As I got on the train for the eighth year of Hogwarts I couldn't stop them. The flashbacks. Every time I saw something that reminded me of Hogwarts I would have a flashback. However, as soon as it was over, I pushed the thought into the back of my mind and started looking for a compartment. Soon I found that all were full, except one with Malfoy, Parkinson, and Zabini, No worries yet! Hopefully they didn't hate me as much after the war.
I was wrong. Terribly wrong. As soon as I asked if I could sit there Pansy and Blaise froze up, while Malfoy went a little stiff but continued on talking to his friends. It was as expected but still, why did Harry feel a dull ache in his heart? Never mind it doesn't matter Harry thought to himself, all the while Malfoy was glaring daggers at Harry.
~Time skip~
After a long and quiet ride, Harry gathered his things and set off to find Ron and Hermione. After he found them, they proceeded to walk to the dorms to put their things away, then to the great hall to watch the sorting of the first years. They didn't notice how slow they were walking until they saw Malfoy, Blaise, and pansy outside of the dorms.
Draco pov~
As soon as he saw Potter in the doorway of the compartment he knew he was in for a long ride. After many, many failed attempts at talking to Draco, Harry finally gave up and left it at that. Usually Draco would try to sneer and make snide comments, but ever since the war he hasn't been getting much sleep due to the nightmares. Draco has them almost every night now and the only time they would stop was when he drank a dreamless sleep potion, and even then he woke up feeling worse than the day before.
As Draco sat pondering his own thoughts he realized that Potter hadn't tried anything yet. Draco decided to keep an eye out for Potter from now on. As he felt the train come to a stop he noticed the way Potter's hair fell over his eyes and how tall ha-potter had grew over the summer. Draco couldn't hear pansy telling him to move, he was too engrossed in Harry to notice, until she shoved him on the floor with a loud thud.
He quickly got up and got his things to go to the dorms and put his stuff away, Pansy and Blaise following close behind. When they just about reached their dorms they heard a soft "Wait up guys" come from behind them. Draco knew that voice anywhere, not only that but he also had to endure the last hour or so listening to that voice trying to make conversation.
As Harry caught up to him, Hermione close behind, he heard an angry, " Really? Now we're talking to these death eaters?" Draco decided to ignore it, Pansy on the other hand freaked. She started screaming at Weasley about how we didn't want it, all the while I'm trying to calm her down. When she finally calmed down enough, I made her go into the common room and take a break for a minute while we all tried not to get in a fight. After a couple minutes she came back out eyes all red and puffy and told us that she took the liberty of figuring out whose dorm room was who's even though we all told her we wanted to look for ourselves.
As I looked around, I saw Blaise's name and took the liberty of seeing who he was sharing a dorm with, and it was the Weaslet. I realized what that meant, I was gonna have to share a dorm with none other than the golden boy himself. Seeing as girls bunk with girls, Hermione and Pansy were dorm mates I guess. I walked in and set my stuff down on one of the beds, not knowing if Potter would want to choose which one he wanted.-I mean why would I care what bed stupid Potter would want. I'm just trying to make sure he doesn't avada cadavra me in my sleep, It's bad enough I've had a huge crush on him since fifth year, now I have to share a room with him?Harry's pov~ I saw my name next to one of the dorm doors and walked in thinking I would be dorm mates with Ron, boy was I wrong. Draco Malfoy. Draco Lucius Malfoy. If he was being honest with himself, he was quite pleased. Even though he acted like he hated Draco, he was actually quite fond of him, even if he was a prat sometimes, Harry had had a crush on him for a while now. He walked over and set his stuff on the empty bed and making quite a lot of noise, so Draco spun around and feebly grabbed his wand, not quite recovered from the war.
Harry saw this and walked towards Draco before gently taking his wand out of his hand and saying the few words Draco least expected, "I'm sorry. For everything and if we're going to be dorm mates then we need some ground rules, 1) no people here past 11 aclock 2) don't touch my stuff 3) Draco interrupted and said, "I use the bathroom first in the morning!" "Okay I think that's all," said Harry. Just then Hermione burst into the room and half yelled,"We're gonna be late to the sorting! Hurry up go!" Draco quickly checked the time and realized that they were indeed, almost late.
This is about 950 words without this and the beginning part and sorry If it seems rushed, I only had an hour to do this and seeing as it's my first one I think it just took longer then normal.
