Harry opened his eyes and to his surprise, it was daylight and he was on the sofa with a blanket over him. The last thing he remembered was sitting on the sofa reading. "Oh well." Harry thought to himself as he sat up.

Harry leaned his head and arms back in a yawning stretch. He then stood up and went up the stairs to get a shower.

When Harry got out of the shower and walked down the stairs to the living room, Draco was across the room in the kitchen, making a bowl of cereal for the two boys.

"Well good morning, sleepy head." Draco said with a chuckle, trying not to focus on Harry's shower hair. Which he found quite adorable honestly. "You fell asleep reading your book last night."

"Yeah. I was really tired." Harry explained.

The two friends stood at the kitchen counter eating their cereal in silence. After a few moments, Harry broke said silence.

"So I was thinking." Harry said to Draco,
willingly.

"Yeah?" Draco replied to the raven haired boy, looking up from his bowl of cereal.

"Maybe Ron and Hermione could come over for the weekend, if you don't mind of course. To break in the new house I guess? Plus I haven really seen them in a while." Harry suggested, looking excited.

"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea!" Draco told Harry. Even though he wasn't too fond of Ron, he would give him a chance to make Harry happy.

"Yay! I'll phone Hermione and Ron!" Harry cried, jumping up and running upstairs to his room.

Draco couldn't help but snicker at the cute raven haired boy who he was so lucky to have as a best friend.

Harry ran up the stairs and into Draco's room to grab the phone, a muggle device that muggles use to call people. Harry still didn't really understand it. He'd seen uncle Vernon use it a few times but not much. He'd much rather use his owl.

He grabbed the phone, jumped sat on Draco's bed, and began to dial Hermione's number.

The phone made a ringing noise (which Harry hated) about 4 times before a woman picked up.

"Hello Mrs.Granger!" Harry said sitting up straight with excitement.

"Oh hello, Harry! Would you like to speak to Hermione?" A sweet sounding mrs.Granger asked.

"Yes please"

"Hello, Harry! How've you been? What about Draco?"

"You can come see for yourself Hermione! You and Ron should come over tomorrow and stay for the weekend!"

"I would love to! I'll phone Ron and let him know."

They finished their conversation and Harry hung up the phone.

Harry was about to go back downstairs when he seen a black journal on Draco's bedside table. Harry couldn't help but pick up the book and began to read it.

The first few pages were pretty basic, how his day went, how he felt about the new house, stuff like that. But then Harry came across a page with a short paragraph.

"I like you. I really, really do but, we're bestfriends. I'll never be able to confess my feelings face to face. What if you don't like me back and it ruins our friendship? I couldn't live with myself if I did that. I guess I'll just continue to confess my feelings to my journals. I like you, golden boy."

Harry didn't know what to do. He just quickly scrambled to put the journal back where he found it. He ran out of the room and down the stairs.

"So?" Draco asked Harry as he walked into the living room where Draco was sitting.

"U-uh Hermione s-said they were uh- coming tomorrow night. S-she's gonna phone Ron and let him know." Harry stumbled over his words.

"Okay that's great! It'll be so much fun!" Draco highly doubted that it would be any fun but he was going to try.

"Uh-uhm yeah. Yeah, fun."

"Hey, are you okay?" Draco asked worryingly as he stood up and walked over to the boy.

"O-Oh uh yeah. I'm fine. Just gonna go for a walk. I'll be back soon." Harry told Draco before he walked around the corner, down the second set of stairs, and out the door.

He could not let Draco find out he read his journal. He had to play it cool. Like he didn't know that Draco liked him.

AN: my chapters are so short I'm sorry. The next chapter might have smut in it. Or maybe just fluff idk.
