Hello^.^ Sorry for taking so long to update, but lo and behold, I did. And I have one person who I would like to thank for giving me an idea of what to write next. Give it up for...*drum roll* Yumi2482.

Thank you so much!!

Brown eyes look around as students walked around to their classes, gazing curiously as the marking in the walls, wondering exactly what was making them glow the way they did. Ignoring the idle chatter that came with every school in the hallways, slender fingers lightly ran down the pictures on the walls, never noticing a figure walking towards her until a voice came from right behind her, making her jump in surprise.

"Interesting, aren't they, Ms. Granger?" The said female spun around only to see the headmaster of the school that she was staying at with her two friends. "Sir! What are you doing here?" The headmaster only chuckled and shook his head, if I remember correctly, I am headmaster at this school. And you, what are you doing?" Hermione only
blushed in embarrassment at her lapse of memory. "Well, I was only admiring the charms around this school, headmaster." He smiled, "Yes, well, to tell you the truth, no one knows what type of charms that are embedded in these walls." Brown walls widened, "What! You don't know! But…but…" He shook his head, "But nothing. I nor any of my professors know." She only smiled, "My friend's mother, Michaels mother, is bound to know, you know, since she is my Charms professor at Hogwarts, sir."

An eyebrow rose up in amusement, "Is that so, Ms. Granger? Well, I'm sure that I will tell my own Charms professor that he as competition."

Before Hermione could open her mouth again, a voice rang above all the noise. "Hermione!" The two figures turned around to see Ron running towards them, bumping and jostling the other students as they tried to avoid him. Coming to a stop, his own brown eyes met Hermione's. "There you are Hermione. You do know that Michael wanted help on his homework that was given to us before we left, right?" Hemione's eyes widened in realization, "Oh no! I totally forgot!" Ron snickered, but stopped when the headmaster spoke up, "Couldn't Mr. Potter do his own work?" Ron only glared and in a voice that made the headmaster narrow his eyes somewhat, said, "Why do you want to know? Michael is special to me and Hermione, so he needs all the help that he can get, especially since he did defeat You-know-who."

Grabbing his friend's hand, Ron, shooting one last glare at the headmaster, stormed off to the guest rooms, dragging Hermione behind him. The headmaster, in turn, just ignored it, all to used to glares thanks to his students and daughter, only turned around and started to usher the students to get the class before they were late.

During that time, Mizuki only sighed, her eyes half lidded in boredom as she watched some of the professors who didn't have class, Hiro and Akira put up decorations for the upcoming ball. She jumped when a hand touched her shoulder and a voice was lightly spoken from behind her. "You know, you wouldn't be so bored if you helped the professor's out you know." Looking behind her, she saw Sho, smiling gently at her. She only scowled at him before putting her head on her arms again. "I was, but was banned after Akira got me into trouble. Stupid brat." In the distance, a voice rang out, "Did not!" Mizuki only stuck her tongue out and yelled back, "Did to!" Sho only laughed, "Really, aren't you a bit old to be doing that?" It was Sho's turn then to get a tongue stuck at, "Tell that to him. Where's Yuuki?"

An eyebrow raised up, "Why don't you look for yourself?" Mizuki only mumbled to herself and with a might sigh, heaved herself up and looked at him. "Fine, but only if you come with me." Green eyes sparkled as he smiled a crooked smile, "Wouldn't dream of doing anything else."

Red and green eyes watched as their two friends left the room. Takahiro looked at Akira, "So…what do you think?" Red eyes sparkled in barely hidden mirth, "So in denial." Takahiro cocked his head, "How can they be in denial when they have not realized yet?" A smirk was flashed to him, "You'll see." They both turned their heads towards the back when a voice yelled, "Either you help or you two get out!" Akira only mock saluted, ignoring the glare that was sent to him. "Well, my dear Hiro, shall we continue?" Fighting down a blush, which is lost to, said boy nodded and walked towards one of the professors to see what else they could do, trying to ignore the stare that was following him.

Smirking again, Akira looked outside and saw four figures walking around in the midmorning light. Shaking his head, he walked to where Takahiro was waving at him, an adult standing next to him.

Now, the six figures that Akira saw were outside, enjoying the fresh air. During the fresh air, two adults watched in amusement as they watched their son trying to distract his intended from his talking to something else that they couldn't figure out yet. "And here are our greenhouses, which is a lot like the greenhouses in Hogwarts. The shed near the greenhouses is where we keep all of the gardening items that people can borrow, with our professor permission of course." Draco only looked on in frustration as Yuuki kept talking and taking, ignoring him. 'There is a way to get him to be quiet, but not right now.' Realizing his defeat, his only lightly glared as his mother and father gave a quiet chuckle at his behavior, making Yuuki stop in his rambling and looked at Draco's parents. "Do you have any questions, Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy?" Mrs. Malfoy only looked at him, "Dear, we are a bit thirsty, how about you continue giving Draco a tour while my husband and I get something to drink?"

Yuuki furrowed his eyebrows and was about to say something when Lucius spoke up, "We will be fine, besides, to tell you the truth, I think that Draco want to be with you." Narcissa smiled when Draco's eyes lit up and landed on Yuuki, "Have a good time, dears. Come on honey, let's get some of the tea that we have heard so much about."

Watching the Malfoy couple walk away, he cleared his throat and looked away. "So Draco…what do you want to see?" Draco only smiled, which made Yuuki fidget and shift his feet. "You." Green eyes landed on Draco's and before he could even open his mouth, his hand was grabbed in a gentle but firm grip and was dragged towards the towers.

After being pushed into a tower, Yuuki only looked on as Draco walked towards him, his mercury eyes gleaming. Gulping, Yuuki only backed up, forgetting that it was in an enclosed space and soon enough, his back his the wall. Draco continued to walk until he was a foot away from Yuuki's. Facing heating up, the raven haired boy spoke up, his voice trembling, "Um…I think that we are needed in the-" He was cut off when a warm mouth covered his, completely cutting off any protest that was going to come out.

Yuuki only stood there in shock as his mind completely stopped. All he knew was that Draco was kissing him, and that it felt, to his embarrassment, better than the ones in his dreams. All too soon, the mouth left his and his world zoomed to the twin pools of darkened mercury, swirling in passion as he leaned back in. This time, when the mouth touched his, Yuuki's brain seemed to wake back up and arms went around the blonds neck and arms wrapped around his waist, bringing him right against Draco's bigger body.

The kiss remained innocent as the two got physically acquainted with each other, feeling the difference in body built, in each other's presence when air became too much in demand and the two broke apart. Breathing heavily, the two stared at each other's eyes, memorizing each feature to memory.

Draco smiled at his mate's flushed face and put his face in the crook of Yuuki's neck, inhaling his mate's scent, tightening his arms around Yuuki's body. Yuuki only stood there in a slight pleasured haze as his mind starting functioning again, slowly but surely. They stood there, comfortable in each other presence as they lost track of the time outside.

It was a loud affair when dinner started as the student talked about one thing and one thing only. Of how Michael managed to anger the usually calm and mild mannered Takahiro, which resulted in a duel, which resulted to Michael being currently in his rooms, sulking his heart out as his parents, Sirius, and his friends tried to talk to him to come out of his room. Said professor was calming eating, ignoring all the talks about her completely defeating the boy. The headmaster chuckled as all the students talked about the event, each having their own theory of what got their classmate so angered. Looking at where Mizuki is, he watched as his daughter and Akira talked in low undertones, shooting glares at the doors that led to the hallways. Sho, Draco and Yuuki were watching on as the two plotted revenge on one of their own, missing Takahiro's calmness in the heart of the storm since their friend did not yet return from outside, where he went when feeling annoyed or angered. Draco and Yuuki only looked on as Mizuki and Akira nodded, smirked, and shook hands while the black eyed boy stood up and smirked at them. "See you." With that, he walked out of the doors, ignoring everyone's gazes as the hall quieted down to watch the boy walk out of the dining hall and outside. Within seconds, the chatter started back up.

Akira walked into the cool air, tinted with a hint of fresh grass and headed towards the lake rim, where he knew Takahiro headed to when he wanted to be alone. Seeing an hunched figure, he knew that he was right. Takahiro ignored the footsteps as he continued to stare at the water, watching the fireflies dance around the surface, playing a game of avoid the fish in the water.

Akira sat next to him, his mind telling him that his soon to be more than friend needed comfort than the other thing his instincts was telling him. It was quiet when 'Hiro's calm voice sounded. "I just got so mad that I just…lost it." His head turned to look at Akira's, his eyes shining with unshed tears and lip quivering slightly, "I didn't mean to lose it like that! I swear I didn't! It's just…just…" A strong arm wrapped around his shoulders and pulled him into a one arm embrace.

Akira's deep voice rang into the night, "I know. That brat had no right to talk about your parents that way." A shaky breath sounded, "I don't care that I can barely remember them, it is ill to talk of the dead that way and…" The tears slowly trickled down pale cheeks as Akira watched his friend. Sighing, he held him closer as Takahiro put his head on his shoulder, letting the tears flow out.

They sat that way, comforting each other in a way as the fireflies flitted around them, basking the two figures in a pale light.

The moment the chatter started back up, Sho looked at Mizuki, caution shining in his eyes, "What are you two plotting this time Mizuki?" Said girl only smirked as her eyes shined, "You'll see at the ball. It will be, how should I put this…a blast!"

While Mizuki laughed, three pairs of eyes looked at each other, each showing the same thing, 'Poor Michael.'
