HARRY
it was the first trip to hogsmeade, and you couldn't go. you didn't have a signature seeing as your parents are in azkaban. you weren't alone though, harry was with you. you were the only third years in the common room that day. if you were being honest with yourself, you were glad for the alone time. just the two of you, with the whole day to do anything.
"y/n, i know what we're gonna do today!" harry told me with a radiant smile on his face.
"what are we gonna do harry?" i asked him.
"i am going to teach you to play quidditch," he replied. when he saw the look on my face he said, "no really, it's gonna be fun."
"it better be," i countered. with that we headed to the quidditch pitch.
when we got there, harry told me that he was gonna teach me to play chaser. let's just say that i was killing it. i never missed a shot.
"you're a natural chaser y/n," harry told me. he suddenly got as red as a tomato. he said, " let's make a deal. if i catch the snitch before you make 35 goals, then you have to go on a date with me."
i could feel the heat rushing to my cheeks. "what if i win?" i asked him, "will you help me study charms?"
"sure," he said.
and with that we started. all i could see was a blur. harry was really trying to get that snitch. by the time it was over i had made 25 goals and a date.

RON
this year had to be the worst year hogwarts has ever had. professor umbridge (if you can even call her a professor) has been making the school a living hell. she's interviewing all the teachers to see if they are good enough to teach, and she's obviously trying to get rid of professor dumbledore. harry's been teaching some people defense against the dark arts in the room of requirement. we've been learning to defend ourselves against people like the death eaters. it was almost christmas break, and everyone was doing very well. after one of our meetings, ron walked up to me.
"hey y/n," he said, his voice shaking with nerves.
"hey ron. how are you?" i asked him. his face was very red and he couldn't look me in the eye.
"umm i'm alright i guess. listen, i wanted to ask you something," he told me. he finally looked me in the eye and asked, "i was wondering if maybe you wanted to go to hogsmeade together sometime? i-it's ok if you don't want to. i'll understand." this boy was so adorable. he is just too cute when he's nervous.
"when?" i asked. he looked at me with a big smile on his face.
"is that a yes?" he asked me, hope lacing his voice.
"well obviously," i replied laughing. he chuckled and hugged me. the things this boy does to me.

DRACO
the year was coming to a close. normally i'm upset to end the year, but this year i couldn't wait to go home. umbridge has made this year terrible. a great majority of slytherins adore her, but i don't. mainly because she hates muggleborns, and i am a muggleborn. and even worse, the boy i've grown very fond of looks up to her in the highest regard. he's even on the inquisitorial squad. yes, draco malfoy is still constantly on my mind. i just can't help it. despite some of his flaws, he's amazing. even though i'm a muggleborn, he doesn't treat me like dirt. well, he doesn't treat me like dirt ALL the time.
"hey y/l/n," draco hollered across the hall. i stopped in my tracks and turned around. "i wanted to talk to you," he said as he basically dragged me to an empty classroom.
"what do you want draco?" i asked impatiently. i was in a rush to get back to the common room. i had a crap ton of homework to do. "i thought boys and girls couldn't be within 8 inches of each other?" i half asked half said in a mocking tone.
"they can't be, but i'm on the inquisitorial squad, so it's ok," he replied acting all high and mighty.
"get off your high horse and ask me your question or whatever it is you want me for," i commanded. he gave me a look that said 'haha so funny' and i couldn't help but snicker.
"i wanted to know if you would like to go on a date with me this weekend?" he asked being polite for once.
"why would i do that?" i countered. he looked hurt for a second, but then let his guard back up.
"because i like you and i know you like me, so don't act like you don't," he quipped. he had me there.
"all right draco, i'll go on a date with you. IF you treat muggleborns more nicely," i told him.
"i guess i could try to do that," he said looking defeated. "i'll see you this weekend then," he said.
with that he left the room and i had a permanent smile on my face.


i'm sorry that ron's is kinda short and that draco's is long. i try to keep these all around the same length, but ron's and draco's always end up longer than harry's so i have to go back and make harry's longer.

qotd- if you could dye your hair any color what would it be??
aotd- red. like flaming red.
