Draco pov: 
I'm almost in the dungeons when I bump into someone. I curse quietly before looking down at who I've bumped into. I'm suddenly staring into Harry Potters green eyes. He looks away but I can see that he is embarrassed. It's kinda cute.
"Sorry" I say quietly before moving out of his way. 
"It's okay, are you coming to the ball tonight?" He asks in a slightly worried tone. He must have realized that I've been crying. I say "Yes" before I can think. I turn my head towards him, he's smiling at me. "I'll see you there then." he says before turning around and walking away. 

I walk the last few corridors before standing outside the Slytherin common room. I say the code and walk to my room. I got a personal room because of all the bullying I was put through. I don't mind, I'm completely fine with being alone but sometimes I wish I'd have someone to talk to. I just write letters about everything I feel and think, I usually save them but I've also burned a few. 

I'm sitting at the edge of my bed, staring at my hands. I have a few sandwiches at a plate beside me but I haven't touched them. I stand up quickly, I walk towards my drawer and open it. I'm looking for my suit, it seems like I'm going to the ball anyway. I smile as I think of Ha-Potter and his stupid beautiful eyes. I look at myself in the mirror and run my hands through my hair. I'm wearing a black suit with a white shirt. I add a few emerald and silver details making it look stylish and fancy. I pick up a green tie and tie it around the collar of my shirt, it actually looks really good. I walk around in my room for a while before sitting back down and my bed. Why do I suddenly want to go to the ball? It can't be because of Potter right? I h-hate him and he hates me! But why did he smile at me then? Does he want me to come to the ball? I try to find answers but I'm just getting more and more confused. I take a sandwich from my plate and start eating.

Harry pov: 
Did I really ask Malfoy to come to the ball? It sounded like I was asking him out! I just broke up with Ginny, he probably thinks that I'm still dating her. 
I sigh, there is no reason for me to sit here and stress about it. I walk up the stairs to the Gryffindor common room and say the password to the fat lady. Hermione is sitting on a carpet in front of the fire, her back is turned to me but I know that she's reading a book. I walk up the stairs to the bedroom I share with Ron and a few other Gryffindors. I open the door to find Ron loudly snoring in his bed. I smile before I walk over to my bed and lay down. I'm tired and I fall asleep after a few minutes. 

I'm running through a forest, I can hear explosions coming closer and closer every time I take a step forward. My scar is hurting, I can hear his voice. I can hear Voldemorts voice repeating that I'm too late. I know that it's true but I can't stop. 

I wake up sweating, Ron is still asleep so I know that I didn't scream this time. My head is hurting, I need something to eat before I go to the ball. I sit up carefully, putting my feet on the floor. I stand up and start walking down to the common room. Hermione is nowhere to be found but there is a plate with sandwiches on one of the tables. I walk over to them and see a note with Hermione's handwriting on it. "I asked the house elves to get you two something, I'm getting ready for the ball." I smile, they're probably not poisoned in that case. I got myself a sandwich and walked back to the bedroom. 

The ball will soon start, I'm standing in front of my mirror. I can see Ron going through his drawer, he's looking for something to wear. I'm already wearing a black suit with a red silk shirt with golden details. It's a fancy outfit but it wasn't as expensive as I thought it would be. Ron stands up, holding a white shirt, clearly too small for him. I chuckle and tell him that he can take a shirt from me if he wants to before leaving the bedroom. I sit down in front of the fire, waiting for Ron to get ready.
