Mystery: Day three hint, I'm in the great hall.

Harry: That wasn't a hint you git! Everyone's in the great hall.

Mystery: Correct beautiful, everyone is in the great hall. Therefore I am also in the great hall so it is a hint.

Harry: You suck.

Mystery: No I'm a top love.

Harry: I.

Harry: I've had enough of this conversation, good day.

Mystery: Wait, come back darling.

Harry's pov

I just chuckle at my phone and put it in my pocket. I'd like to think that this mystery boy is Draco.. but that would be absurd. We were somewhat civil now, but he would never like me. I am sure of it. Not that it matters, because I just simply would never tell him how I felt.

"What are you so smiley about Potter?" Suddenly Draco's voice makes me jump. Hermione and Ron chuckle and go back to whatever they were bickering about. "Nothing that would be of interest to you, Malfoy." I spoke softly.

Honestly after the war, I just wanted full and total peace. I know Draco wasn't a bad guy, just lead by a bad father. He's honestly amazing. Though I'd never tell him that either. I truly believe me and Malfoy could be good friends, which is what I was working towards this year. Not just with Malfoy, but with everyone. A lot of the houses had befriended people from different houses. Throwing away the house stereotypes. We were all kids after all. It was time we stopped letting the adults around us control who we're friends with.

"Why wouldn't I be interested?" Draco scoffed, acting offended. I shrugged, keeping my head down, "it's nothing Draco I promise." I rolled my eyes slightly. Why'd he have to choose today of all days to talk to me, I was dealing with enough with this mystery lad.

"Well Potter, you always interest me." Then he leaned to my ear and whispered softly, "Oh and by the way, I love the way my name sounds coming out of your mouth."

My breath hitched and I just blushed and put my head down again, quickly. At this point half of Hogwarts was looking. Hermione and Ron were wide eyed, and Draco just chuckled and looked down at me in amusement. He ruffled my hair and walked away. What the bloody hell was that? I looked at Ron and Hermione who both shrugged, looking back at Draco. Then at the rest of the great hall.

All eyes were on me, and suddenly I felt small. Why on earth did Draco do that?

Mystery: Whoa what was that interaction!

Harry: I honestly have absolutely no idea, your guess is as good as mine! My heart feels as though it's going to explode!

Mystery: So you do fancy Draco?

Harry: Shut it, prat. I just am confused as to what that was. It was just so random. I mean Malfoy was? Flirting with me?

Mystery: That wasn't denial by the way. Also why wouldn't Malfoy flirt with you, half the school flirts with you!

Harry: If you messaged me to make me fall in love with you, you'd think you wouldn't want me to fancy Malfoy?

Harry: Half the school does not flirt with me, they flirt with "tHe cHoSeN oNe"

Mystery: You're correct, but I just want you happy love.

Mystery: Ah yes, the boy who lived, how could I forget.

Harry: How sweet, I'm going to go freak out for four hours now. Have a good night. Oh and really, forget it all you want, I wish more people cared for Harry and not the boy who lived.

Mystery: Right.. Totally don't fancy him.. and I appreciate you for just being Harry.

Harry: I don't fancy Draco for crying out loud mystery boy! Also thank you, that's very sweet.

Granger: What in the bloody hell was that Malfoy!?

Malfoy: I can't help it! I just kind of melt when he's around and immediately start flirting my arse off.

Granger: That's so sweet!

Weasel: Makes me sick really, my best friend and former enemy, are going to be snogging. How gross.

Malfoy: There will be no snogging anytime soon weasel.

Granger: You want to snog though.

Weasel: Truthfully, I thought you were going to earlier in the great hall.

Malfoy: Shut it you gits.
