Draco's eyes darted between Luna Lovegood and Ginny Weasley, his expression filled with a mix of surprise and skepticism. He had known Luna for a few days now, having struck up an unexpected friendship, but Ginny's presence was unexpected and brought a wave of uncertainty.

Luna, ever perceptive, sensed Draco's hesitation and took a step forward, her serene voice breaking the silence. "Draco, Ginny is here because she genuinely wants to help. She understands the complexities of relationships, and she has grown beyond her past with Harry."

Draco's gaze flickered to Ginny, searching for any signs of deception. He had heard stories of Ginny's fiery personality and her history with Harry, and he couldn't help but feel wary.

Ginny met Draco's gaze with a steady, sincere expression. "Malfoy, I know I was once involved with Harry, but that's in the past. I've moved on, and I want nothing more than to see both of you find happiness. I believe in second chances and growth, and I promise to support you in any way I can."

Draco's skepticism wavered slightly, his eyes shifting between Luna and Ginny. Luna's unwavering trust in Ginny gave him a glimmer of hope that maybe, just maybe, Ginny could be someone he could rely on.

Taking a deep breath, Draco nodded reluctantly. "Alright. If Luna trusts you, then I'll give you a chance, Weasley. But understand that I have my reservations."

Ginny nodded understandingly; her expression softened with empathy. "I completely understand, Draco. Trust takes time, and I'm willing to earn it."

Luna stepped forward, her serene presence calming the tension in the room. "Now that we're all here, let's discuss how we can help Draco navigate his feelings for Harry. We need to create an environment where he feels safe and supported."

Draco glanced at Luna, feeling a sense of gratitude for her unwavering support. "Luna, you've been a good friend to me, and I trust your judgment. What do you suggest?"

Luna smiled warmly at Draco, her blue eyes sparkling with kindness. "I think the first step is to have an open and honest conversation with Harry. Communication is key in any relationship, and it will help both of you understand each other better."

Draco sighed, his shoulders relaxing slightly. "I suppose you're right. It's just... I'm afraid of what might happen if I let myself be vulnerable with him."

Ginny stepped forward; her voice gentle yet firm. "Malfoy, vulnerability can be scary, but it's also the gateway to meaningful connections. If you want to build a bridge with Harry, you'll need to take that leap of faith."

Draco nodded, feeling a flicker of determination igniting within him. "I'll try, but I'll need your support along the way. I can't do this alone."

Luna smiled brightly; her voice filled with unwavering support. "You won't have to, Draco. We're here for you every step of the way. Together, we'll help you navigate this new chapter of your life."

Ginny echoed Luna's sentiment with a reassuring smile. "That's right, Draco. We're in this together. And who knows, maybe by helping you, we can also heal some wounds of our own."

Draco felt a surge of gratitude for his unexpected allies. The path ahead was uncertain, but with Luna and Ginny by his side, he knew he had a support system he could rely on.

"Thank you, both of you," Draco said, his voice filled with sincerity. "I'm grateful to have you as friends. Let's start by reaching out to Harry and having that conversation. I hope it brings us closer and helps us find a way forward."

Luna and Ginny nodded, their commitment shining through their eyes. They knew the road wouldn't be easy, but they were determined to support Draco on his journey of self-discovery and healing.

Luna and Ginny went back to their dorm while Pansy and Blaise stayed. "Let me stay with you both for today" Draco put his head on Pansy's shoulder. "It has been some days and already my life is going hard" Draco closed his eyes while a small tear fell from his left eye. Blaise patted Draco's back gently "Its okay Dray, don't worry everything will be okay soon"

"Draco you can't stay with us, me and Blaise are not roommates, we are in Blaise's room now and his roommate has went to meet her friends and I'm staying with Cho Chang as I didn't have anyone else (IN MY AU CHO IS IN THE SAME YEAR AS HARRY AND OTHERS).

"Please manage for one day, let me stay with any one of you please." Draco pleaded

"Let's see what we can do"

*With Harry*

"Oh, you're back Malfoy?" Harry said while lying on his bed upside down without looking at the door.

"No, it's me, Blaise Zabini, Draco wanted to stay with Pansy today so I stayed here and my roommate and Pansy's roommate stayed together"

Harry turned his head to face Blaise, his green eyes curious. "Oh, hey, Blaise. Sure, no problem. Draco can stay here if he needs to. I don't mind."

Blaise walked further into the room; his footsteps quiet on the wooden floor. He looked at Harry, who was still lying upside down on his bed, and cleared his throat. "Harry, there's something I wanted to talk to you about."

Harry turned his head slightly to glance at Blaise, a curious expression on his face. "What is it, Blaise?"

Blaise hesitated for a moment before speaking, choosing his words carefully. "Well, you know Draco, right? He's been going through some things lately, and I think he might... have feelings for someone."

Harry's brow furrowed in confusion. "Feelings? What do you mean?"

Blaise sighed, trying to find a way to convey his message without giving everything away. "I mean... he might have a crush on someone. Someone unexpected."

Harry's confusion deepened, and he sat up on his bed, facing Blaise more directly. "Who? Who could Draco have feelings for?"

Blaise shrugged nonchalantly, maintaining a calm façade. "I can't say for sure. It's just something I've noticed, and I thought you should know. Maybe keep an eye out for any signs."

Harry's green eyes narrowed as he tried to decipher Blaise's cryptic words. "Signs? What signs?"

Blaise shook his head, his expression deliberately neutral. "I can't say, Harry. It's not my place to reveal anything. Just... be aware, okay? Maybe you'll figure it out."

"Thanks for letting me know, Blaise," Harry finally said, his voice tinged with a hint of uncertainty. "I'll keep an eye out, like you said."

Blaise nodded, a small smile playing at his lips. "That's all I wanted to say, Harry. Get some rest now. Things have a way of working themselves out."

With that, Blaise retreated to his side of the room, leaving Harry deep in thought. As he lay back down on his bed, Harry couldn't help but wonder about the truth behind Blaise's words. The realization that Draco might have feelings for him had stirred something inside him, something he wasn't sure he was ready to face.

As sleep finally claimed him, Harry's dreams were filled with swirling questions, uncertainties, and a growing curiosity about the possibility of Draco's hidden emotions.
