"1…2…3…4…5…6…7…8…9…10", Harry softly counted the tiles on the ground as he took his early mornings stroll. But something was different, something life changing was gonna happen, he just knew it. So as he counted, he got ready for whatever will happen. As he reached the main doors, nothing could have prepared him for what was on the other side.
He quietly opened the doors to reveal a weeping student, and when Harry got a closer look at his peer, it was none other then Draco Malfoy, his enemy in school, and his secret love in his head (and dreams). Before he could stop himself, Harry placed a hand on Malfoy's shoulder
"Malfoy", Harry said softly
Silver pain filled eyes snapped up, which turned cold when they realized who called him.
"What are you doing here potty, come to gloat, are you gonna go and run off to tell your Gryffindork friends, that you saw Draco Malfoy sobbing like a baby" snarled the young aristocrat.
"I was coming to take a walk around the lake, when I saw you. Draco how could you think I would tell anyone this, everyone is allowed to cry, I just wanted to see if you're all right." Harry said sincerely
"Why the fuck would you care, potter, just crawl back to your friends, you're not wanted here." Draco snapped
"Their not my friends", Harry muttered
"Then why do you hang out with them?"
"I only do during school hours and even then I try to stay away from them, they hate me, Dumbledore is paying their families to 'be my friends' to keep an eye out for me so I don't turn out like Voldemort and the only friendship I ever wanted I turned down in first year." Harry added staring directly into Draco's eyes.
"What are you talking about?"
"You Draco are the friend I ever wanted, but Dumlepoop knew and made sure I met weasel first."
"That's fucked up, man,"
"Since I was forbidden your friendship back then, will you accept my friendship now?" Harry asked timidly offering his hand.
"I would most definitely like to be your friend, and I'm not doing this to bring you too my lord."
"So you have joined?"
"Yes," Draco answered simply. They lapsed into silence.
"You wanna take a walk around the lake with me", Harry asked suddenly
"Sure"
As the once enemies headed to the lake they succumbed to a comfortable silence. The nightly sounds were all that you could here. A splash in the black lake dragged them out of their thoughts.
"So what was wrong", Harry questioned
"Nothing", answered Draco a bit to quickly.
"That's convincing. No seriously I really do care. Why were you crying?"
"It's stupid"
"It's not stupid, if it's making you cry", Harry said noticing the ice colored eyes glaze over with unshed tears.
"I…I…I was just thinking," Draco paused and took a deep breath, "I was just thinking about someone I love and how they'll never love me"
For some reason this confession made Harry's heart plummet, but one thing stood out.
"So it's a guy, then", smirked Harry
