In September 1 classes started. September 14th was when Niall really noticed Harry. October 5th Niall made the plan to win Harry over. October 11th Niall gave him the broom. November 2nd Harry offered Niall flying classes. December 23rd they shared their first kiss.

Two days after, there would be the Yule Ball.

- So? Are you boyfriends? - Zayn asked Niall excitedly as he told him what had just happened.

- I don't know. We just kissed, once, half an hour ago - Niall said, laying down on Zayn's bed. As soon as it happened he went there.

- What about the Yule Ball? Isn't it the day after tomorrow? - Zayn continued, staring at Niall with wide eyes.

- Right! Oh my god... I don't know, Z. Should I ask him? - Niall sits up on the bed, bacoming more aware.

- Of course, Niall. You two kissed! That's a big deal! - Zayn said like it was obvious.

- Is it? I mean, for me it is. I've liked him for three months now, Z. I can't believe it happened! And imagine what it would mean to my parents if we dated... they'd be so happy - Niall trails off in his own toughts.

Zayn was the only one that knew about the plan and what it meant to Niall. Of course it was about Harry and how much the blonde liked him, but it also meant so much more than this.

- Yes, it is Niall. Most students in the fifth year haven't even had their first kiss yet. I haven't! Neither had you.

- What about that time we-

- Ew, Niall, that doesn't count - Zayn interrups Niall, making a disgusted face. - And we agreed that it never happened.

- Okay, okay - Niall laughed, standing up. - I guess you're right. I will talk to him - Niall half smiled, nervous. Zayn caught up to that.

- Hey, Nialler, don't be nervous. It'll be fine - the Ravenclaw smiled, hugging him. Niall hugged back. - Now leave. Go take a shower or something, you smell - Zayn laughed, breaking the hug.

- Go to hell, Zayn. I was practicing! - Niall laughed too, leaving the room.

Niall went to his room and spent the rest of the day building up the courage to go talk to Harry. The next day, he went.

The Hufflepuff entered the Slytherin common room yet again, this time way more confident than the last. He was walking to Harry's room by himself, as he already knew the way, when the same boy from last time stopped him. Niall smiled.

- Niall, good to see you mate - he hugged the blonde, smiling back. Turns out Niall was absolutely right when he said even Slytherins would warm up to him, because that same boy who bothered him last time had become his friend the past month.

- Shawn, you too! - Niall hugged him back. They became friends when they were accidentally partned in potions class, and had hang out regularly ever since.

- What brings you here? - Shawn breaks the hug, staring at him.

- I'm on my way to see Harry - Niall smiles fondly.

- Same reason, three months later? Ok, respect. You're not one to give up easily, apparently - Shawn smirks, teasing the shorter bloke. - I'll let you be, then. Let's get together sometime.

- You know I'm always up for it - Niall rolls his eyes at his friend, walking past him with a smile and making his way to Harry's room.

He knocked. Only then the nerves started to kick in.

Harry opened the door, and, once again, he was shirtless. Niall's jaw almost dropped. Harry managed to get more fit? How? Maybe it was all the training they had been doing...

- A Hufflepuff, in this dungeon? Have we met? - Harry smirks, staring deep into Niall's eyes.

- I actually was just dropping off your new, new broom - Niall jokes, looking back at the taller boy. He couldn't help but to observe his body.

- Well, come in then - Harry opens his door fully, letting Niall past through, both of them smiling.

Niall observed the messy room. There were clothes everywhere and Slytherin colors on the walls and beds. Harry's roommates where nowhere to be seen. It looked like the teenagers had never fully unpacked their suit cases, as they were thrown around on the ground. Honestly, Niall didn't really mind the mess, afterall he was, too, a messy teenager.

When he turned back to Harry, the boy was way closer than he expected.

- So, Harr-

Before he could finish, Harry was grabbing him by his waist and pulling him even closer.

- Hi - Harry said, in a lower, sexier tone, staring at Niall's lips now.

- Hi - Niall whispered, as if he didn't have enough air to talk any louder. He, too, couldn't help but to look at Harry's lips.

Soon enough, they were touching his. This kiss, however, was different. Yesterday it so unsure and surprising. Today was... well, it was hot and messy, just like the room. Niall was beggining to understand why Harry was shirtless, he himself would also be if he too lived in the dungeon. It was hot there.

Harry pulled him closer, holding the smaller body against his own. It felt good. He took no time in slipping his tongue in, intensifying the kiss.

Niall traveled his hand through Harry's hair and bare back as they couldn't keep their lips away from eachother. Niall wished, that second, that he could freeze the time forever.

The kiss, however, had to be broken as they both gasped for air. But they still held eachother close.

- So... - Harry broke the silence, staring at Niall's blushed face and swollen lips. - Although I'd like to believe you came here just to kiss me, I think there might be a reason behind it - Harry smiled, as his hands played with the ham of Niall's shirt by his waist. They were still so close.

The plan was working. They kissed, twice now. Niall's first real kisses. Maybe this will all be okay.

- There is, actually - Niall said, taking a deep breath and wetting his lips. - I was wondering if you'd like to go to the Yule Ball with me? - Niall smiles. nervously, still so close to him.

Harry's demeanor changed immediately, and he slowly let go of Niall.

- Oh - Harry frowned, sitting down on his bed and staring at Niall - I actually have a date...

Niall's eyes widened. They had been training together almost every day for a month and a half. They were close frinds. And now they've kissed! This meant so much to Niall... he really was falling deep for Harry. But I guess Harry was planning to go to the Yule Ball with someone else all along. That hurt Niall. He thought yesterday was confirmation that Harry liked him back...

Apparently not.

- You do? - Niall said, staring at the ground as if they weren't just kissing. - Sorry, then. I guess... - Niall said, and before Harry could say anything he walked out the door.

Niall felt so humiliated. He, a Hufflepuff, walked the entire Slytherin dungeon just to see someone, who would then make out with him just to deny him.

The plan was a complete failure. So I guess it's time to change it.
