A lot of boys could agree that Lily Potter was one of the hottest girls in the school; but Draco didn't find her hot, he found her beautiful.

As he laid eyes on the girl that was slowly walking alongside her friends to the Potions classroom, Draco leaned against the wall, ready to let all of those foreign thoughts in.

Her piercing emerald-green eyes were doing things to him that he never experienced from someone, they were lighting his whole world up. Her hair was falling in messy curls on her back, looking like she just woke up from a nap. Her lightning bold shaped scar was hidden under simple makeup that wasn't even needed as her beauty came naturally. The way her tie was lose and the robes flew behind her, made Draco feel his heart doing a set of impressive gymnastics inside of him. But what was that foreign feeling that he felt for his arch enemy, the one he fought with, laughed at and was jealous of for 7 years of his life. Maybe it was just gratitude for saving his family from Azkaban, yes that was it.

'Have you heard about the welcome back party that will take place tonight?' Ernie Macmillan's voice beamed in his ears and he turned from his chattering friends to study the group of 3 Gryffindors and one Hufflepuff.

'Of course they did, I'm organizing it,' Ron Weasley smirked and put an arm around Hermione Granger's waist, making the girl blush crimson.

'Are you coming, Lils?' Ernie asked and the redhead nodded slightly.

'It will be a welcome distraction, I have to take my mind off s-some things,' Lily replied and Draco surely hallucinated the short look she threw at him.

'It's going to be epic, you just see!' Ernie and Ron began to chatter away while Lily hugged her Advanced Potions book and rested her chin on top of it.

'You okay, Draco?' Pansy asked from beside him and he jumped a bit, nodding quickly.

'He's just trying to get someone's attention,' Blaise smirked and Draco looked at him with wide grey eyes.

'You've had too much chocolate yesterday at the feast, Zabini?' he asked in a mocking tone and the brunette rolled his eyes.

'Alright come in you lot!' Professor Slughorn's voice echoed through the corridor as the door opened and he greeted them with a big smile.

'Lily, dear girl, how are you doing?' the professor asked her as Draco walked into the classroom, his attention falling on the redhead.

'I'm fine professor, thank you. What about you?' her bright smile was almost killing him with happiness.

'Oh very good, very good, you may take a seat next to Miss Granger and Mr. Weasley.'

The girl nodded and seated at the back of the class next to her friends, under the watchful eyes of Draco Malfoy.

'Today we will prepare an Elixir to induce Euphoria! You will open your books at chapter 1, page 7 and find all the needed ingredients in the supply cabinet, you may begin.'

Lily walked to take her ingredients almost boringly and ran her eyes through all the steps. She always like potions and as Professor Slughorn liked to remind the class, she got her talent from her mother.
