Harry's POV

Everything has been normal when Harry started his fourth year, Hermione was still the same sticking her nose on every useful book that she could find and Ron was still hungry as ever shoving every edible food that he sees. Harry giggled at his friends antics only to be eyed by his classmates and Professor Flitwick. He almost forgot that he was still in class, well everything was normal except for Malfoy's behavior. Harry have been expecting Malfoy to be the same as always getting into his nerves and teasing him till his pissed off, but these things never happened when fourth year started not that Harry wants Malfoy to bother him everyday well its rather convenient that the blonde has stopped annoying him and his friends. But Malfoy's behavior has been bothering him it feels kinda.... Odd actually knowing that the blonde was being nice to him now and not bullying every people that he saw but still Harry was used to the blonde's behavior that he kinda felt foreign when Malfoy occasionally decided to be nice its just... Weird.

It was lunch when Harry decided to snap out of his thoughts about the blonde and started to listen to his bestfriends conversation which he was accidentally ignoring because of his thoughts. "So Harry have you made up your mind on what extra classes you're gonna take?" Hermione asked eyeing her friend as Ron excused himself, probably going to the loo. "What extra classes do you mean Hermione?" Harry asked back confused, "Are you even paying attention Harry? Well this extra classes are made to help us on our chosen career,you need to choose two classes. Furthermore if your chosen track doesn't need these extra classes you still have to attend them but its up to you to choose which classes you would attend to." Hermione explained still staring at Harry and raising her left eyebrow at him. "Oh, right I still don't know what extra classes are there though, do you have a list of it?" Harry asked as his bestfriend sighed and took a parchment out of her robe. "I knew you were going to ask so I've prepared a list of it." Hermione replied as she handed the parchment to Harry as the said boy reads the peace of information.

Extra Classes for Fourth years:

Arithmacy
Muggle Studies
Divination
Study on Ancient Runes
Care of Magical Creatures

"Ancient Runes is a bit hard so nope and I don't need Muggle Studies cause I've been with muggles for 11 years and Arithmacy is difficult too so I guess Divination and Care of Magical Creatures then." Harry replied as Hermione sighed. "Those subjects aren't hard if you pay attention Harry. Besides you've been spacing out the whole morning and I've been worried about you, can you tell me what's bothering you Harry I can help you with it." Hermione said worried about the raven haired. She knows that Harry doesn't like being a burden to people but it doesn't mean that he will face his problems alone, besides he has friends that are willing to help him and Hermione is 100% sure that he could help Harry solve what ever was bothering him. "I don't actually know Hermione... It's just a silly thought don't worry about it I'm fine." Harry said and smiled but Hermione knew that was smile was fake and she had to help Harry so she'll keep bothering him until he told her. "Come on you wouldn't be spacing out the whole morning if its just a silly thought just let me help you Harry maybe it isn't so silly after all." Hermione added as Harry stared at him and took a deep breath. "I just noticed that Malfoy's behavior change lately, I mean he doesn't bother us anymore and I just thought that he started to be nicer or just plotting another prank on us." Harry told Hermione as the brown haired stared at him watching his every move as if she's looking at a unsolvable problem. Oh Merlin I knew it was a silly thought why did I blurt it out now she's gonna think that I'm crazy worrying about Malfoy I shouldn't have told her, ugh stupid Harry. He scolded himself as his green eyes avoided Hermione's brown ones as he fiddled with his fingers which he does if he's nervous. "I noticed that too actually and its nothing to be worried about, if Malfoy decided to be nicer then that's good and if he is plotting another prank against us we just have to be prepared to counter them." Hermione said, "I guess your right thanks Hermione." Harry smiled at his bestfriend as the brown haired did the same. "Its nothing Harry next time talk to Mr when you have problems okay I'll be always here to help you." Hermione ruffled Harry's haired as the raven haired then started eating his lunch and Hermione did the same.

The dark hall was illuminated by Harry's wand as he carefully traveled through the halls in his invisibility cloak. Harry couldn't sleep so he decided to stroll the halls like he always do and get some fresh air to calm himself. He thought about Hermione told him and realized that he shouldn't been bothering thinking about Malfoy, Merlin knows the blonde wasn't the reason why he couldn't sleep, not at all. His train of thoughts was interrupted as a body collided with him as his cloak dropped to the ground by the impact. Harry easily regained his balance so he wouldn't fall, the stranger was knocked on the floor as groans escaped his mouth and Harry knew who the stranger was, shit he never expected to bump into him especially when he is the one who is the cause of Harry's spacing the whole morning. "Malfoy what are you doing here?" Harry asked dumbly as the blonde glared at him and stood up wiping the imaginary dirt on his robes. "I was about to ask the same question Potter, what are you doing here?" Malfoy asked back a lace of venom on his voice but not too much to intimidate Harry  like he always did. "I couldn't sleep so I decided to take a walk, how about you?" Harry looked at Malfoy and blinked, I didn't remember him being so damn attractive before, Harry thought. Wait what!! No Malfoy wasn't attractive, bloody hell did he hit his head too hard at Potions class today to think that his enemy was attractive Merlin no. "Same, I wanted to get some fresh air tonight , classes are stressing me." Malfoy whispered  the last part and stared at Harry. Wait, did he just had a civil conversation with Malfoy?! A coversation without teasing each other, well he admits that its nice but it was Malfoy that we're talking here and Malfoy was his enemy so why bother to act civil now? He asked himself, That doesn't matter, all he has to do is to avoid talking to the blonde and get right up to bed, right sounds like a great plan. "Oh right well I gotta go so..." Harry excused but was stop by the blondes pale hands grabbing the end of his robe. "Wait I have something to tell you...
