"What's gotten into you, Draco?" Pansy asked a very concentrated Draco. She struggled to keep up his pace, since he hardly even noticed another life form next to him.

"I'm sorry, what?" He asked. Pansy sighed and tugged on his arm.

"You're so.." She cut herself off, looking for the right word. Draco was beginning to grow impatient. "Weird."

"How nice, I'll be going now." Draco said sarcastically and continued walking. His eyes were on you as soon as he opened the door to the great hall.

His goal was to only talk to you. You had your own little group of friends, and they were the only people you'd speak with other than the teachers. You were very shy. Draco only wanted to talk to you. He was curious.

Pansy rushed behind him, and yanked his arm back.

"What do you want, now?"

"Tell me why you're acting like this!" She exclaimed. Her voice was loud, filled with unexplainable anger. Draco was confused as to why she was angry. The great hall grew quiet. All attention was put on the two. Draco sighed and walked towards the Slytherin table, annoyed. As soon as he sat down, he made eye contact with you. You have him a small smile, before turning back to a friend.

After dinner, you were walking quietly to the common room. You were very interested in Draco. He's very tough on the outside, but you were curious as to how he was on the inside. He isn't all that tough under that wall he built up to protect himself. You would know, you used to be tough as well.

You made it to the common room, and surprisingly it was empty. Only a certain blonde was on the couch, deep in the thought. You were nervous, anxious.

"D-Draco?" You called, silently cursing at yourself for stuttering. The sound of your voice made his head shoot up. He frantically looked around him with his hands, never keeping his eyes off of you. He grabbed something small, but you couldn't tell what it was.

"Oh, hi, Y/n. What brings you here?" Draco asked nervously. That was a first.

"Well, this is the common room." You said, a bit more confidently, and laughed at yourself. He grinned and stood up, walking towards you.

"You're right, my bad." He said and laughed lightly.

The rest of the night consisted of him attempting to tell jokes, but still trying to keep his "cold hearted" and "tough" side of him. Towards the end of the night though, you knew a side of him that you hoped you'd see for a lifetime.
