DRACO's POV

-0-0-0-0-0-0-0

we were walking, me clutching my arm from where Pansy smacked me. Then Harry stopped.

"Harry?" I said. nothing. he sat there. grim expression. looking at nothing.

"Hello? Harry?" this time it was Pansy. She looked worried too. Then we heard muttering. He was saying something.... I don't now what though.

"Hullo? Harry?" this time Goyle said something. Crabbe had gone somewhere else, to the kitchens probably. Everyone got really worried when he got louder. He stumbled backwards and fell on his arse. He was muttering something again. Pansy went over to him.

"What is he saying Pans?" Goyle said.

Pansy just looked up at us. Tears were forming in her eyes.

"I-I don't know! He's s-saying 'no'"

I was really worried. But why? No idea. He was my friend, but its only been a few days. Then we all went into conversation on what was happening. Breakfast would be over in ten minutes, and we didn't ant to take him to the hospital wing. Then he yelped. We turned our heads so fast that we all popped a bone.

"no. N-O" he said.

"what's going on?" I said frantically.

"I-I don't know!"

"I can't take this! we have to help" Goyle said, then ran off.

"Do you think he's getting help? He better not!" Pansy said

"I don't think so. Harry?" I said softly as I walked over to him. I knelt down next to him. and grabbed his face. it was stained with tears. I hear muffled foot steps and then came Goyle running down the hall with a bucket.

"HERE!" he yelled. Pansy ran over to him. got the bucket of sink water, and came over. I got up and helped here because it was quite heavy. We ran over to him and dumped the whole thing on is head. He sat up frantically. and started stuttering. He was looking around. Then I realized his glasses were across the room.

HARRY's POV

-0-00-00-0--0-0-0-0-0-0-

Water dropped on my head. It snapped me out of my trance. I started stuttering and then looking around. I couldn't find my glasses. then I heard everyone around me. Pansy and Goyle. Where was Draco? Then I heard running. I saw a very blurred figure. Then my glasses were put on my head. I was soaking wet, and then

"what the heck was that harry!?!?!?-" Draco half shouted

"You scared us-!" Pansy said

"TO DEATH!" Goyle finished.

"I-I'm sorry. What did I do exactly?" I said.

"you completely tuned everything out and went into some sort of trance." Draco said more softly.

"O-oh. Uh. um. I-I..." A lump got in my throat. Tears were in the corners of my eyes. Pansy came over and wiped them, giving me a sympathetic look.

"Harry, its okay if you don't want to tell us." Pansy said.

"N-no, you guys are m-my friends right?" I said wiping more tears away.

"Of course Harry. You can trust us"

"O-Ok. but after potions please?"

they all looked at me. Draco grabbed my arm and it stared to tingle. He looked at me, wiped the tears away and then looked at me.

"Please" I whispered.

"c'mon lets go" Draco said.

We walked in a comfortable silence. my arm was still tingling. weird. We went back to our dorm and I relaxed for like 5 minutes then it was time for class.

Draco's Pov (Many pov changes)

Harry really scared me. I don't know why I cared so much. When I put my hand on his arm I felt these weird tingles. hm. We went back to our dorm where he was silent. I think just processing what happened. Then we left for potions. Which I was dreading for him. If Harry is bad at potions, then he is in for a horrible time.

We got to class two minutes early. We sat together, Pansy with Hannah Abbot (A/N: Don't know how to spell her name). And Crabbe and Goyle were together.

Today we weren't making potions, we were just discussing stuff. I was really worried. Then:

" Potter! What would i get if i added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?"

"I.. I don't know sir."

"where would you look if I told you to find me a bezoar?"

"I don't know si-"

"clearly fame isn't everything! I would have thought you would have at least picked up a book before coming here?"

Slytherins snickered in the back and I was really mad.

"Sir!" I shouted cutting him off. Harry turned to me eyes wide saying SHUT UP NOW. But I continued.

"What is it Mr Mafloy ?"

"He was raised by muggles sir. Don't blame him sir, blame the muggles."

"Is the true Mr Potter?"

"Yes.." He whispered.

"hmm. Fine then. Wont be asking you questions about wizarding stuff, even though you should have been able to pick up a book" The class snickered and I felt bad for Harry.

Just then a fellow Slytherin, who's name I'm to furious to say, spilled a potion all over Harry. It didn't do anything, but it embarrassed Harry.
"Whoops" he said
"Git!" I said furious as I was helping Harry pick up the cauldron and wiping up the potion.
"5 points from Slytherin" Snape said. "also detention for a week"
Then the bell rang and we ran to our dorm before our next class in a half hour. Harry frantically changed and I got started on some homework from Snape.
Then we ran to charms and we were doing some type of levitating thing.
Harry and I got our feather to levitate on the second try and the rest of the class we sat around watching the others. Then the bell rang.
"Mind if we sit with Hermione and Ron today?"
"I... I guess, I mean if they want me there. Not everyone there really likes me."
"I like you" Harry said. I don't know why, but it made my heart kind of do some weird thing. I nearly - let me repeat- nearly blushed, but I stopped myself.
" At least you do"

HARRY'S POV (that's right this chapter will be a long one)
-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-00-0-0-0-0--00-0-

When I told Draco I liked him my limbs felt numb. Why? No idea. I could sense Draco shifting. Was he uncomfortable? I don't know.
"At least you do" he finally said.
"Hey, they're my friends. So, they'll have to accept you"
"Ugh alright let's go then"
We walked and talked about a lot. teachers, classmates, the school in general.
YET ANOTHER POV CHANGE- DRACO

Then I remembered that kid in potions.
"He's lucky that there was a teacher and audience otherwise he'd be in the hospital wing by now."
"God he was annoying" Harry said as we entered the Great Hall. We went over to the Gryffindor table and got glares from a lot of people, accept for surprisingly, Granger, Longbottom, and all the Weasley's. They all smiles at me and I grinned back at them.
"Hey Harry" Longbottom said.
"Hi guys. Could Draco and I sit here?" Harry said.
"Yeah"
"Sure" said the twin Weasleys.
"So how are you doing mate? Oh and y'alright Draco?" I heard this and it snapped me out of my thoughts. Suck as 'why did I feel so weird when Harry said he liked me?' and 'could I like guys?'.
"Oh yeah, I'm good, how are all of you?" They all looked surprised.
"We're good mate, wow you aren't anything like your father, are you?" Weasl- or Ron said.
"Ronald!" Hermione said and hit his arm.
"No, Hermione, it's fine, and no I am not. and I hope I never will." I said and try all smiled. Harry just looked confused. "I'll explain later." I whispered in his ear. I swear to god I think he shivered. my heart thudded to my rib cage when he did. then I went back into deep thinking. 'could I like boys?'... ' maybe I am gay?'. The. Everything stopped when Harry smiled at me saying we had to go to our dorm. his smile was the best. not better than his laugh though, his laugh was incredible. I nodded and as we were walking back I finally made up my mind.

I think I like Harry.

A/N: Hello!! How are ya'll? I'm so sorry I haven't updated in like a week. *hides in shame* but anyway I got some questions if Ya'll don't mind? ( sorry I'm southern I use ya'll like a lot)

So anyways:
- Quidditch *spelling?* will most likely be in next chapter. however I'm changing the way McGonagall finds Harry's ability to catch. But for second year should I put Draco in as another player? Please give me ideas.

- next year will be coming up pretty soon. and I don't really know if they should get together? Hmm. Your thoughts?

- Annnnd that's it for now.
