4th December 1998

POV: DRACO
I was walking to potions when I felt a hand grab hold of my wrist and pull my into a small storage room.
"Draco, I'm sorry. I didn't mean what I said earlier, I know you didn't have a choice in the war. I know you did what you had to do in order to protect both yourself and your family. I should have been more considerate this morning. Sorry love!" Harry looks at me, guilty eyes. I smile at him,
"Every relationship will have these arguments. It will be best to get the majority of them out in the open now then in like a couple of years' time!"
"You see a future for us?"
"Well... Harry it's been like what two days! We've had one argument and made up! I think it will be long term, I mean I know how I feel, and I think I know how you feel!" Harry laughs a sigh of relief and I chuckle, "anyway, I was going to ask Harry, if you fancied going to Hogsmeade with me at the weekend?"
"Oh Draco, of course!"

6th December 1998

POV: HARRY
On the first Saturday of December, came the first snowfall, leaving a light dusting of white across the roofs of the building in Hogsmeade. Whilst we were walking, Draco linked a gloved hand into mine and we walked down the cobbled path, wrapped in coats, hats and scarves, hand in hand. I felt a light blush rise up my cheeks.
"So, Harry, where are we going first?" Draco asked, glancing at Honeydukes. I laugh at his obviousness,
"Well I guess we can go to Honeydukes!" Instead of receiving an answer, he takes my hand, pulling me into the shop. Draco obviously knew what he wanted and demanded me to hold it all as I was the 'man' in the relationship. "Oh, so I'm only the man in our relationship when benefits you eh?" He rolls his eyes, putting a box of chocolates into my already full arms. He pays and we leave, walking towards The Three Broomsticks.
Inside the Three Broomsticks, Madame Rosmerta brought us over two butter beers and we sat in a booth, talking about everything from the latest potions essay to what we want to be when we are older.
"Oh a healer, that's cool! You'd be a good healer Draco. I always wanted to be an Auror because I would be helping people. I'd be no good as a healer. I don't think I want to be an Auror anymore-"
"Oh Harry Potter, are you fed up with saving the world?" Draco sneered, "what about being a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher. Minnie would drop any professor if you wanted to teach a subject. You'd be helping people by education the next generation and you would still be doing defence. And Neville will be there so it's not like you'd be on your own is it?" I take a sip of my butterbeer. Draco reaches across the table running his thumb across my top lip,
"Sorry, you had a foam moustache!" He giggles.
"You know, a teacher... that's not a bad idea. Maybe I can go and speak to McGonagall about it?"
We continue drinking out drinks before standing up and walking back towards the castle, hand in hand.

8th December 1998

POV: REMUS
Turning over, I notice Sirius missing from his side of the bed. I get up grabbing the nearest jumper, pulling it on before descending down the staircase. My assumptions were correct when I found my husband sitting at the table reading the Daily Prophet, a hand clasped over his mouth. I round the table, placing my hands on his shoulders, he looks up at me, smiles, and shoved the paper into my hands.
"Morning to you too love-... what-"
"Remus look at who it was with!"

THE DAILY PROPHET
THE GOLDEN BOY FINDS LOVE WITH AN EX-DEATH EATER?
It seems that our golden boy has finally found love since the breakup with the youngest Weasley. It was rumoured that Mr Potter was part of the LGBT community however he never gave an official statement. A student from Hogwarts told us here at the Daily Prophet that he said, '-if you still want me. I'm Bisexual. I like men and women' to a full Great Hall. Since this revelation, Potter has kept very secretive about everything. Until now. The Chosen One was seen walking around Hogsmeade this weekend holding hands with the youngest Malfoy. Draco Malfoy, an ex-death eater, seemed very happy as did Mr Potter. Although they were known to be enemies, it seems after Mr Malfoy's trial in the summer, they have put aside their differences- and have become an unlikely couple. I'm sure our readers can see that they make an adorable couple, and I would like to congratulate them and wish them both luck in the future.
