Draco and I headed off to Hogsmeade while it was raining. It wasn't the best day to go walking around but we went straight to the Three Broomsticks for some butterbeer.
"Sorry that this isn't what you'd hoped," said Draco looking down at his drink.
"It's perfect," I reassured him. "Don't worry."
"Well," he said after he drained his butterbeer, "do you want to head to Zonko's?"
"That would be great," I responded.
We walked out to Zonko's joke shop and I immediately went upstairs to find something for my brother who loved to play pranks on Marcus.
I picked out a few prank products including a love potion that Logan could trick Marcus into taking. After Zonko's, Draco and I went to Honeydukes and got some candy.
He walked me all the way up the stairs to the door of Ravenclaw tower. "Thank you," I said. I kissed his cheek and walked into the tower.

The next day I ran into Hermione on my way down to breakfast. "I talked to Draco this morning," she said. "He seems very happy. What did you do?"
"We went on a little date to Hogsmeade and I may or may not have kissed his cheek when he brought me back to the common room," I answered.
She laughed. "No wonder he's so happy. He's head over heels." I walked with her into the Great Hall and sat down with her, Luna, Ginny, and Draco.
"I'm so glad we don't have to sit with our houses during breakfast anymore. It's infinitely better," said Ginny.
"I know," said Luna. "I like sitting with you guys."
"It also looks like everyone now knows that you and Draco are friends Hermione," I said.
"I couldn't really care less," she answered.
The third task was days away and I was excited but I didn't want my brother to leave Hogwarts. It was fun hanging out with his friends.
