"I was in the library by myself if you must know" Draco stated annoyed. If his friends found out about him talking to Potter, they might get the Wrong idea.
"ok no need to get so annoyed mate" Blaise said in a calm tone.
He always knew Draco to be annoyed but he was way to defensive for it to just be annoyance.
"So.... Do you have a crush on anyone dray" Pansy said breaking the comfortable silence.
Draco's face became a dark red and he knew he had to escape the question somehow.
"I'm going to get ready for class, stop questioning me" Draco said as he got up and started to walk to the boys shared dorm. He was scared, what would they say about his secret crush. Would they hate him, except it? So many questions swarmed Draco's head as he started to change into his school robes. Once he was done, he sat on his bed and opened his side table drawer. He pulled out a newspaper clipping and held it close to his chest. He put it back in the drawer and made sure to lock the drawer before he left for class.
*******with the golden trio***********
The three Gryffindor's had walked back to their common room. Hermione and Ron bombarding Harry with questions.
"Why were you with Draco of all people, Harry" Ron said in an annoyed voice.
"I told you, he was there when I got there" Harry said starting to get annoyed by all the questions.
"What did you guys talk about" Hermione said in a lovey-dovey voice, she had always shipped the two boys since fourth year, it was one of the reasons she got along with her crush Pansy.
"It's none of your business" Harry said feeling his face heat up.
"Did you have another nightmare about the war" Ron said in a calmer voice, trying to break the awkwardness in the room.
"Maybe" Harry said, he thought back to what happened in his dream. He could not remember. Being with Draco just the two of them, no fighting just a normally conversation. It was weird he felt calmer after being with Draco than he ever did. Why did he feel lonely without Draco. Did he like him, no that can't be. Why would he like Draco they hated each other. Why did he then want to......NO NO NO. Harry shook his head in frustration. He felt his face burn at the thought.
"You ok Harry" Hermione's worried voice snapped Harry out of his thoughts.
"Yes, I'm fine" Harry stared blankly
"We should head to the great hall; Breakfast is probably starting" Ron said
Hermione slapped the back of the redhead's head.
"Is all you can think about is food" Hermione said in an annoyed voice.
"probably" Harry said chuckling
"let's get going or well be late" Hermione said as she got up signaling for the boys to fallow.
Harry rushed along to catch up to his friend, he wanted to see Draco again even if he didn't really know it.
