Chapter 23. A Fun Surprise.

It was close to midnight. I'm currently in my room on my bed.

That time I spent with Hermione today is still in my mind. I can't get my mind on something else.

Gosh it's so annoying. I decide now it's time to get up. I get up and make my way to the Astronomy Tower.

It was just Harry and I meeting tonight. Hopefully we can do something fun.

Harry had passed me in class and left a note on my book when no one was looking.

He said on the note that he had something fun planned for tonight.

I quietly slip out of Slytherin house and silently make my way down the hallway.

Soon enough I'm at the Astronomy Tower. I walk in to find Harry standing there. He had a smirk on his face.

Not only that, but behind him leaning against the railing sat both of our Quidditch brooms.

" Up for a small Quidditch match between friends?" He asks. " I managed to sneak a Snitch. As long as I put it back when we're done, no one will notice. "

I smirk. " I believe I'm up for it. Question is, how do we get outside from here?" I say.

" Easy. We're good at flying. We hold our brooms, stand on the railing and jump. Half way down we get on our brooms and take off to a small field somewhere since the Quidditch field is being used for something, and we have ourselves a fun game of Quidditch. " says Harry.

I smile. " Sounds like fun. Let's do this." I say.

" Not without these Quidditch uniforms I managed to snatch. If we don't use these, we'll freeze our tails off. " I look to see in his hands he's holding a Slytherin Quidditch uniform and a Gryffindor one as well.

I take mine and we both get them on before grabbing our brooms and walking towards the rails.

We both carefully climb onto the rails and look at each other before grinning and jumping on.

We free fall for a few seconds before positioning ourselves on our brooms and taking off.

We fly a bit far from the castle to a huge field. He turns to face me. " Now, I let this go and in a few minutes we go searching. Regular rules stand, first one to catch the Snitch wins " says Harry.

" You're on Potter." I say.

He laughs and brings it out. " Let's get to it then Malfoy. " he says back.

I chuckle as he releases the Snitch and quickly it disappears from sight.

" Not to rough like it a real Quidditch game though. We don't want to get hurt and have to explain what we were doing out of the castle this late at night." I say.

" Whatever you say. " says Harry.

We start to fly around a little. " Want to race the length of this field?" I ask.

I take his answer as yes when he takes off on his Firebolt. I laugh and take off after him.

We race around the field about ten times before the Snitch flies in front of us.

Harry and I grin at each other. " It's on now." I say.

We take off. The wind so cold, and gives me the wondrous feeling of being free.

Both of us neck and neck. Laughing and grinning the entire time.

We bump into each other, each of us trying to reach the Snitch. Then Harry purposely moves faster, meaning he hadn't been going full speed.

He then caught the Snitch. He turned to face me as we stopped. " I win." He states.

" Best two out of three. " I snap.

He laughs before releasing it again. Soon enough were at it again. We're not headed for a curve. I take a short cut and go in front of Harry.

" Wait, where did it go?" Says Harry looking around for it.

" Better luck next time Potter." I say.

He sees I'm holding it in my hand. " Well played Draco, well played. " he says.

They continued this for the longest time. They lost track of time. I  was laughing until I saw the sun coming up.

" Harry." I cry in panic.

" Crap. We're so dead!!" Cried Harry.

We took off back to the Astronomy Tower and Harry his the brooms and Snitch.

We looked at each other. " We're going to get caught." I say.

" I know. I'm sorry if it happens. I meant for us to only to have a bit of fun. Not get in trouble. " says Harry.

" It's fine Harry. I knew the risks. It was only a matter of time before we were caught anyway. Hate to say it, but still." I say.

Harry nodded. We looked out both ways.

It was clear. " See if you can avoid Filch. " I say.

" Right back at you. " says Harry.

We took off to our houses. Shockingly we didn't run into anyone and made it in.

I sat in the common room. No point in going to bed really.

After a while I heard footsteps. " Blimey Draco. What are you doing up way before us?" Says Blaise.

" Couldn't sleep. " I lie.

He nods. Soon Pansy showed up and we left to the Great Hall with all the others.

I spot Harry at his table and he nods at me. I nod back. Good, he didn't get in trouble.

Last night was fun. I'll have to remember to thank Harry for it. Soon enough were done eating, get up and start making our way to the first class of the day.
