GRYFFINDOR COMMON ROOM

Hermione: So, how was it with Draco in the Room of Requirements?

Harry: It went well. He's surprisingly likeable. I can't believed what kind of a friendship I missed out on.

Hermione (smiling): Well, I'm glad you had a good time.

Harry: I wouldn't have without you, Hermione. You convinced me to give him a chance, thanks. You're a great friend, Hermione, you really are.

Hermione (blushing slightly): You are too, Harry.

Hermione turns around as Ron enters with Lavender.

Hermione: I'm- I'm tired, Harry, I think I'll go to bed.

Harry: Are you OK? You sound kind of...

Hermione: I'm fine.

Harry turns around to where Hermione was looking.

Harry: It's Ron, with- Lavender.

Hermione: I should get going.

Harry: Hermione, you can tell me if-

Hermione: I said I'm fine, Harry.

Harry studies Hermione, trying to understand what's bothering her.

Harry: Are you jealous of Ron and-

Hermione glances back at Harry before turning away.

Hermione: Goodnight.

Hermione disappears up the girls dorm, leaving Harry worried.

SLYTHERIN COMMON ROOM

Draco: The more I read this song, the more stupid it sounds.

Pansy: It's looks fine.

Draco: I talked to Harry earlier today. I got to know him, Pansy. Can we- Can we restart?

Pansy: I- Well- (sighing) Fine... Incendio!

Draco: Let's start fresh.

Blaise (overhearing): Since you're restarting, could I be any help?

Pansy: Ugh... alright.

Draco woke up bright and early the next morning. Wanting to spend more time with Harry, he got out of his four poster and got to writing.

Dear Harry,

Hi. I was hoping you'd like to spend more time together. You're not so bad, Potter. 4pm, Room of Requirements. Be there or be square.

Love,
D. Malfoy

Trying not to sound desperate in the letter, Draco made it a short letter.
