Harry woke up on a dull Tuesday morning, not quite feeling right. Probably because he had migraine, maybe because he felt an odd feeling towards a certain someone.

Ron quickly walked over to Harry and said,

"Come on, mate, let's go to breakfast together, we'll meet Hermione down there."

Harry got up and began getting ready for his day. Changing into his robes, brushing his teeth, combing his hair, and then he was finally ready to leave.

The walk to the hall was horribly boring, but at least Harry had something new to listen to. Ron was continually talking and talking about... Hermione. He didn't stop all the way until they reached the big entrance doors that they would soon be going into. Before entering though, Harry pulled Ron aside.

"... Ron?
"Yeah, Harry?"
"Do you.. like Hermione?"
"Well I mean... yeah! She's my bestfriend! Don't you like her too?"
"No Ron, do you like her, for REAL?"
"Oh.. well.. like... uh... you see..."
"Whatever, let's go eat, I'm starving."

Harry and Ron made their way over to the Gryffindor table, and Ron sat beside Hermione, whereas Harry sat across from them, facing the Slytherin table.

Harry made it halfway through breakfast before he spotted Draco Malfoy walk into the Great Hall. Draco looked absolutely exhausted, like he hadn't slept for days. Harry began wondering if he was alright, but quickly brushed it aside, because everyone knew he hated Malfoy.

—
When I walked into the hall for breakfast, I had two things on my mind. A nap, and Harry James Potter. Although, I would never admit it to him, I'm starting to not hate him as much as I probably should. I haven't taken the time to think about why.

When I was walking to my rightful place at the Slytherin table, I saw Potter staring at me. It was like he was trying to read me, get into the deepest corners of my mind, but then he looked back at his breakfast.

I sat down at the table, and began eating everything in sight. I've been skipping meals recently for multiple reasons. 1. I need more than anything to catch up on sleep, and 2. I dread seeing that "pretty girl" weasel all up and over on Potter.

Although, she hasn't been around much lately.

Harry began to walk to class alone, as Hermione made Ron leave breakfast an extra 15 minutes early so they wouldn't be late.

Well Harry was walking to class, he saw one Draco Malfoy walking extremely fast past him... too fast, but Harry ignored it because too many people would get suspicious if he stopped to talk to his... enemy.

What Harry didn't realize was that Draco had slipped a note in his bag.

—

"Charms was right boring today," Ron said with exhaustion in his voice.
"I cannot believe how much homework Professor Flitwich assigned us. We've never gotten this much collectively throughout all our years here." Harry said back to him.
"Can you both just stop complaining. I'm actually trying to do the homework." Hermione said extremely annoyed.

Ron and Harry got out their homework and began doing it alongside Hermione. Awhile later the inseparable Fred and George walked in the room...

BOOM.

They set off their "homemade" firework invention.

"GEORGE! FRED! IM GOING TO TELL MUM IF YOU KEEP DOING THIS," Ron yelled at them.

"Hey we're just trying to,"
"Lighten the mood."
The twins said one after another.

"Yeah and we're just trying to,"
"Do our homework."
Ron and Harry replied mockingly.

Hermione began to get upset at this point. "CAN. YOU. ALL. JUST. SHUT. UP." She bellowed with her face in her palms.

Ron and Harry thought it would be a good idea to just leave her alone since she was in a bad mood, so they decided to go up into their dorms to finish their homework.

"Thank Merlin," Harry said after completing his homework.
"I feel like we've been doing work for 8 hours..." Ron said back.
Harry practically screamed, "WE BASICALLY HAVE BEEN!"
"I'm not really tired though..." they both agreed to play Wizards Chess a few times before going to sleep.

"Hey, Ron, so... do you like Hermione or?"
"Harry, I don't know. I think she's brilliant and adorable and I also think she's my best-friend.. so I don't know."
"Hey Ron, no matter how you feel i'll ALWAYS support you. You were the first friend I ever had, and you'll definitely be my best friend forever. I just want both of you to be happy!" Harry replied him with sympathy in his voice.

Some time passed, and after Ron won for the second time, they started a new game. Then Ron suddenly said...

"Hey, Harry? Do you like anyone?"
"Well I mean-"
"I've seen a lot of girls eyeing you lately, mate, my own sister is practically trying to marry you..."
"Oh.. yeah... girls..."

Harry had nothing else to say.

Ron has fallen asleep about 30 minutes later, but Harry couldn't sleep, and just as fate had decided, he went over to look for something in his bag.

But he didn't pull out what he was looking for.

What he did pull out was a tight folded ripped piece of parchment. When he unfolded it, the note read,

"Dear, Harry

Meet me in the library at 11pm. I think it's time we finally talk."

It was written in pretty swirly letters. Harry didn't recognize the writing, and the note didn't say who it was from, but Harry didn't really care. When he looked at the time it said 10:55 pm.

I still have time. He thought.

—

Draco sat nervously as he waited for his enemy, Harry Potter, to arrive in the library. He wasn't quite sure why he gave Potter the note, but he's been having a horrible urge that he needed to talk to him for days.

Harry, on the other hand, had thrown his invisibility cloak over him as fast as he could, and began running to the library.

When Harry finally made it to the entrance, he managed to knock over a book. Draco quickly got up to look who was there, but didn't see anyone.

Then, Harry turned, and saw the one and only Draco Malfoy sitting in the middle of the library. He threw off his cloak, and the only word that could make it out of his mouth was,

"Draco..."
