Harry's POV

Yesterday Draco and me became friends. Draco wanted our friendship to be secret. "But didn't you say your father wanted us to be friends?" I asked. "He only wants us to be friends so he could kill you or bring you to Voldemort and the other Death eaters. I don't think we would want that to happen." Draco replied with a know-it-all tone. We planned to meet tonight at the same place we met. I didn't know why he would want to meet in a bathroom but I didn't question it that much.

When night came I waited for everyone to fall asleep then did the same thing I did yesterday. Once I got in the bathroom, I took off the cloak to find a peaceful Draco, standing in the middle of the room. I go over to him and he spots me. "Took ya long enough." He says. "Don't blame me, Ron didn't ever want to sleep." I replied. "Well nevermind that, I wanted to show you somewhere...but there's a problem." Draco continues. "We don't have anyway to get there without being spotted by teachers." Draco said. "Sure we do." I hold up the cloak. "You have an invisibility cloak?!" Draco said in shock. "Had it since 1st year. Now, back to the place. Get under here and walk us to this place." I said as we both get under the hood. He walks us to a place that is quite random, a corridor wall. I was about to question why we where here when a door appears out of nowhere. He walks us inside and a room with Slytherin and Gryffindor colors. There is a green sofa with a red blanket on it. We set down at the sofa and he turns to me. "This is the room of requirement, me and a Slytherin Pansy found it in 2nd year." Draco explains. "You can make whatever you want appear and disappear, whenever you what." Draco says. "Why are you being so nice Draco, we've only been friends for a day." I ask. "Well, you've been the only one to comfort me when I needed it the most, the only other people where Mother and Dobby, but he got freedom from Father in 2nd year." Another thing to make me feel guilty. I gave Dobby that freedom, but in the process made Draco lose a friend. "I feel like I should a least do something for a thank you, I have been mean to you from the start, yet you still gave me a chance." He said looking down. I hugged Draco with all my might, he retuned the hug and we stayed like that for a while finally we let go, I look into his eyes. "You have been taught to be cold to everyone, that's just how Malfoys are. But you don't have to be like your family. I promise you I will show you nothing but kindness and friendship if you do the same." I tell him, I can see a tear in his eye. "Thank you..." Draco says weakly. He goes in for another hug. We stayed like until we fell asleep.

The next morning we dash to our dormitories and quickly get dressed we run to the main hall, careful not to walk in together, and sit down. "Where were ya mate?" Ron said. "Oh nothing.." I say trying not to sound nervous. They looked at me suspiciously, but drop the subject.

*Timeskip a to winter holidays*

Draco's POV

I asked Father if I could stay for the Holidays and he said yes. I got so excited. I already knew Harry was staying since he always stays, I don't think anyone would want to stay at muggles for Christmas. The next day, after everyone left, I noticed how few actually stayed at Hogwarts, maybe it was those dementors. They were always bringing everyone down. I go to the Slytherin table but the teachers said since there was so we all sat at the same table. Harry's friends or anyone that wasn't a Slytherin hated the fact I had to sit with them, but I didn't pay attention to that. I was looking at Harry the whole time. I made sure I sat next to a Slytherin in a way were she was in front of Harry, so I could watch him without anyone knowing. After I passed him a note asking to meet later when we were walking by each other leaving the hall. He looked at it and smiled. I could only guess that was a yes. Everyone was heading back to there common rooms and Harry told his friends something that made them walk away. That only left us in this deserted hallway. He walked over to me. "Meet me in the room of requirement." He handed me a note with the time. I nod and he walks away to catch up with his friends. Before he turned the corner he winked at me. I don't know why but that made me blush a little... Am I gay? If I am I couldn't be for Potter- or, Harry. I walked back to the common room confused as ever. It's not even been a week how could I fall for him that easily. Am I falling for him? I guess time will tell. Right now I need to get ready to meet Harry.
I meet with Harry at 7pm, the time on the paper. When I went in there it looked the same it always did, mix of our house colors with a sofa and rug. Harry was sitting in the sofa with something behind his back. "What's that?" I asked. "Oh this?" He says pulling out a present, we both start blushing. "You got one to?" I asked. He looked confused. I pulled out my wand. "Accio Harry's gift." I muttered. A perfectly wrapped red present appeared from the tip of my wand, and landed in my hands. "Wow, how did you learn that spell, your only in your 3rd year?" Harry said in shocked. "I've always knew there would be a situation when I would forget something that I would need so I've been trying to learn that since 2nd year." I said turning more red from all the attention. "B-but that doesn't mean anything scarhead!" I said placing the present on a convincingly placed table. "Hey, what did we say about being nice."
"You right sorry." I said. He took my gift and I took his. He opened his first. When he look at it he saw a box of pins I enchanted to say scar head and a picture of a lighting bolt was going up and down. He looked at me with a "really?" look on his face. I laughed for a few minutes then looked at him. "Sorry had to have my fun, here." I muttered the Accio spell again and a new gift appeared. He opened it and saw a broomstick servicing kit and a few candies from Honeyduke's. He thanked me for it and I opened his. I saw a box on green apples and in the middle of them sat wizard's chess set. We spent the rest of the night having fun and talking about useless topics. 11pm arrived and we had to go back. We put on the cloak and walked to the Slytherin common room to drop Me off. When we got to the entrance of it I turned to Harry and gave him a tight hug. He returned the hug and before I left I looked in his cool, emerald colored eyes. "See ya later scarhead." I wink and him and turn away, I could've sworn I saw his face turning pink. I went in the common room and made it to my room. I got changed and immediately went to bed. "He turned pink didn't he? Does that mean he likes me to? Not now Draco, its not the time to think about that." I thought to myself.
