Chapter 8: Draco

I see a blur of red and yellow robe flying past me before I recognize it as the one and only, Mr. Potter.

"Potter!" I step out grabbing his arm tightly

He's been sulking around all month. He barely bothers to show up for classes or meals.

Harry spins around, his face contorting in a sneer. His bright green eyes blazing with rage. "What do you what, Malfoy?" Harry snarled harshly

I wince. So much for an attempt at a civil conversation. I let go of his arm slowly, "It's not your fault, you know? You didn't cast the spell on her, Ron did." I see his jaw tighten visibly before he looks up into my eyes darkly.

I brace for his hit, continuing, "Look, Pot- Harry, I'm sorry for the way I treated you and Hermione these past years." I look down at my feet before resuming gruffly, "It wasn't right and you guys didn't deserve how I acted. So I-uh- I sincerely apologize, man." I put out my hand for a shake.

I notice the corner of Harry's mouth turning upwards before he pulls me in a tight hug. "It's in the past now. It doesn't matter anymore." He mumbles

I hesitate a moment, before eagerly returning his tight grip. I feel myself fighting off hot tears. Never would I think I'd be here, giving Harry Potter, a bloody hug. Hell, what's gotten into us.

Moments later I pull back and pat his shoulder awkwardly, "Now, go get your girl, mate." I smirk teasingly

Harry beamed at me, giving a quick jerk of his head before running off in search of the hospital wing.

Wow, I, Draco Malfoy just hugged a Potter...
