Hey readers! Um, what do I say?? you know what? Enjoy the story and bye!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Malfoy?" asked Harry, shocked.

     Draco took his eyes off the book and saw the person in front of him. "Potter?What are you doing here?". Draco was shocked and he scared, as if Harry was going to kill him. And that is exactly what Draco is thinking, although it's stupid.

     Harry rolled his eyes, "Well, I'm here because I have a baking class to attend to. Duh, of course I'm here to go to Hogwarts. What do you think I'm doing?" Draco couldn't help but grin a bit as he realised that his question really is weird.

    "Nothing, you shook me, that's all.". Not daring to look at Harry, Draco went back to his book. His eyes were on the book, but his mind was somewhere else. "Should I apologise now? Damn it, why is it so hard for me to say sorry?"

     At the same time, Harry was slowly getting uncomfortable with the awkward silent. He was dying to start the conversation, but didn't know what to say. He kept his mouth shut for like half an hour and he couldn't keep it anymore. And neither can Draco.

    "Listen, Pott-"

     "Uh, Malfo-"

    Both were about to talk and so they stop. After a long silent, Draco started again when he saw Harry's lip shows no sign of moving yet.

     "Um, Potter. Hey uh, can we, I mean I-I wanted to say uh say sorry f-for everything I did to you these past years. I know that I was a complete git to you-and your friends. And I would really be grateful if you would, um maybe give me a second chance to be a better person, and fix my mistakes." At this point, Harry was surprised to hear this apology, but slowly he smiled.

     "You know, Malfoy, I never thought that I'd hear you say that, and yes. I forgive you, even if you haven't apologised cause you did save my life and I appreciated it. I'm sorry too, cause it's not just you who's been a git." Harry grinned and continue, "So, friends?" Harry held his hand in front of Draco, smiling.

     Draco was too, surprised by Harry's action of forgiving him. He sometimes can't help but envied Harry because of his kindness. Draco smiled and took Harry's hand. "Friends. After 7 years, you finally shook my hand, Potter. Never thought this day would come too." Draco smirked, but in a friendly way. Harry grinned but didn't break their handshake yet. After a moment of staring at each other(which was weird, I know), they broke apart and sit comfortably.Not long after that, Harry started conversation again. "So Mal-Draco, do you mind um telling me why you hated me since first year? I mean, I think I do know the answer but I wanted to hear it from yourself because I don't think that's the only reason you hated me."

     Draco replied, "Of course, you know I once hated you because of my rejected handshake. I'm embarrassed about it, but as i grow up, it slowly fade. I don't hate you for that reason anymore. In fact, I actually don't really hate you." Draco stop for a moment and look into Harry's eye.
     "But you-" before Harry could say more, Draco interrupted
     "Yes, I know I was an arse back there, but it's because I was jealous of you. You have that perfect life with your friends and admirers. And, I was jealous of your friends because they get to be your friends and I don't."
     Harry was speechless. He didn't know what to say, so he let Draco continue. "First year when I saw you, I really do want to be your friend. Crabbe and Goyle were my friends, but our friendship was nothing like you and your friends'. So, I treated you horribly cause well...you know, cause I'm stupid. And childish. And a git. And an a-"
    Before Draco could say more about himself, Harry interrupted him saying "No no no no no you're not, stop. And, my life isn't that perfect you know. My aunt, uncle and my own cousin abused me, and I sleep in a cupboard under a stair for 11 years, I have to do all the chores, I only wear my cousin's old clothes. And if I did my chores wrongly, I'd be punished, like I won't have dinner. So yeah... But I do have my friends."
     Draco's eyes were wide open, not believing ehat he just heard. "Wait, so they punished you just because you did your chores wrongly? And you was still a kid and they treated you like that????Merlin, I'm sorry Pott-"
     "Draco, call me Harry. Friends, aren't we?" Harry smiled looking at Draco and after seconds passed by, Draco returned the smile. Harry was shook, "Wow, you just smiled. Like really smile. Wow."
     With that, Draco gave a weird look and giggle. "His smile is so pretty, I've never realised this.." thought Harry.
     Draco continued "Okay, Harry. So I'm sorry for all that." He look straight into Harry's eye and was amazed by it. "His eyes are pretty, like emerald colour."
     "No, it's okay... But could you keep this as secret, please?I don't want anyone else to know..." said Harry. Draco nod and said "Okay, I promise."
     And that is how they became friends. "Friends" thought Draco. "Finally, we're friends.. No more enemies." Draco smiled with the thought of them as friends.
