I don't own any of the characters.

Harry's POV:

     It's after the war and Hermione forced me and Ron to go back to Hogwarts for our 8th year. Me, Hermione and the Weasleys are on our way to platform 9¾.

     "C'OMON EVERYONE, GO THROUGH THE BARRIER FAST! WERE GONNA MISS THE TRAIN IF YOU DONT!" Mrs. Weasley shouted as we got to the barrier. We all went through it, quickly said our good byes, and got onto the train.

     We went to the last compartment on the train because all the others were full. We went in to find one person there. Draco Malfoy.

     Draco's the person I was scared to see most of all. Not only did I save Draco's life, and Draco's mother -Narrcissa- saved my life, but I have had the biggest crush on Draco since 5th year. Hermione is the only one who knows that I'm gay, I didn't tell her about Draco but I think she knows.

     Hermione and Ron sat across from Draco, who was laying down on the seat, sleeping, and had no idea that anyone was in the compartment. "Wake up Malfoy." I said while flicking his head so I could sit down. He woke and sat up. I sat down next to him. "What are you doing here?" He spat. "All the other compartments are full. It's not like we want to sit with you." Ron spat back.

Draco's POV:

     Someone just woke me up while I was trying to sleep. I opened my eyes to see Harry Potter. The one person I was dreading to see. Not only did Harry save my life, and my mother saved his, but I've had the biggest crush on Harry since 4th year. I sat up so he could sit down. I then realized Granger and Weaselbee were sitting across from us. "What are you doing here? " I spat. Weaselbee said something about the compartments being full but I wasn't really listening, I was too busy staring at Potter. We were staring at each other, but Potter was doing it out of hate, while I was not.

     "Would you two stop staring at each other and listen to me!" Hermione said angrily, I thought I saw a tiny smirk for a quick second but i was probably imagining it. I also thought I saw Harry blushing a little, but it was probably just anger and hate. I pushed my thoughts away and listened to Granger. "Thank you." She said. "Now as I was saying, me and Ron have something to tell you-no Harry, I'm not pregnant and were not getting married so don't look at me like that-me and Ron broke up." She said that last part rather quickly. I was surprised but didnt really care.

Harry's POV:

     "What? Since when?" I asked acting surprised. I know that Hermione is lesbian and she was just dating Ron because she didn't want anyone to know. She told me after I told her I was bi. "Since last week." Ron said. "Why did you break up? " I said looking at Hermione. "Because I told him, you dont have to pretend Harry, I told him that you know." Hermione said. I really hoped she didn't tell Ron about me. I must have looked worried because she shook her head as if she could read my mind. I relaxed.

     Draco looked so confused and Hermione, obviously, noticed. She looked at me and then asked Draco "if I tell you this, can I trust you not to tell anyone?" "Yes, you can trust me. It's not like I have any friends to tell anyway." He muttered the last part, but I could still here him. I felt bad for him but didn't say anything. "I'm lesbian." Hermione said quickly while looking down. "That's why I always saw you check-nevermind." He muttered, Ron was the only one who didnt hear it, and Hemione looked scared but relived when he didnt finish. I was going to say something but Draco started talking again. "Theres nothing to be ashamed of, I'm gay so I dont mind, and almost the whole wizarding world supports it." I was happy to hear that Draco was gay, even though I know he'll never like me.

Hermione's POV:

     Thank Merlin he didn't judge me or tell the whole school. But he's gay, and so is Harry, and they clearly both like each other, if they weren't both so oblivious and realized that, then they could actually date! I just have to find a way to get them together...

Draco's POV:

     I was going say that's why she was always checking out pansy, but decided to not embarrass her. But I will have to tell Pans because she's in love with Granger. I finally wont have to hear about Granger all the time. Pansy and Blaise are my only friends. But that doesnt matter, what does matter is what Potter's sexuality is... "What about Pottah and Weaselbee, straight like everyone thinks?" I said acting like I didn't care.

     "Yes" The Weasel said, but I didn't care. Then Harry said "no, I'm bi." I was happy but new he would never like me. I put on my emotional mask and pretend like I didn't care. "How come you never told me?" Weaselbee asked a little disappointed. "Same as 'mione, didn't want anyone to know." Harry claimed.

     Then I started talking. "The famous Harry Potter comes out of the closet. I'm surprised the whole wizarding world doesn't know. I mean, you, the 'boy who lived twice' the 'chosen one' the 'savior of the wizarding world' the one who's in love with fame-" Harry cut me off "You really think I love fame? You think I wanted to be 'the chosen one'?! You think I wanted grow up with no parents? You think I wanted to be abused my whole life? You think I wanted to risk my life all the time? You think I wanted the only family I had left, my friends, and everyone else who died, to die because of me?!"

     I felt awful, I didnt know that's how he felt... "I-I'm sorry...I-I didn't know..." Then Harry got up, grabbed his robes, and went to change. Granger looked sad but like she already knew -of course she did- but Weasel looked sad and shocked, like me. We all sat there for a minute and then I spoke. "I really am sorry, I didn't know that's how he felt..."

Ron's POV:

     I started thinking about Lupin, Tonks, Mad-eye, Snape, Dumbledore, Dobby, Sirius, and F-Fred. I tried not to cry and after a minute or so Malfoy spoke "I really am sorry, I didn't know that's how he felt..." "I didn't either..." I said, why hadn't he told me?... Then  Hermione stated "Well, I knew, it was quite obvious..." Of course she knew.

Harry's POV:

     I was mad but mostly sad. I tried not to think about the deaths and I tried not to cry. After I finished putting my robes on, I slowly headed back to the compartment.

     When I got back to the compartment, I walked in and all eyes were on me. "Sorry I walked out like that..." I said. "Sorry I said those things Harry. I had know idea..." Draco stated. I sat down. "It's fine- wait did you just apologize to me and call me Harry?" I said and laughed a little. Draco rolled his eyes and laughed. "Shut up Pottah." He said. Everyone started laughing.

Hermione's POV:

     After we all stopped laughing, I said "How about a truce? No more arguing and maybe we could even become friends?" Draco and ron glared at each other for a few seconds before everyone agreed. "Ok, I think we can all be on a first name basis now. Oh, and Harry, I think theres a handshake that you owe Draco." Everyone laughed and Draco and Harry shook hands.

I'm sorry it's bad but this is my first story that I've wrote. :/
