Today, Fred made his owl bring me my favorite chocolate. It also came with another note. Were notes his thing now? I unraveled the parchment, and it read:

"𝑰 𝑳𝒐𝒗𝒆 𝒀𝒐𝒖, 𝑨𝒍𝒘𝒂𝒚𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓. 𝑫𝒐𝒏'𝒕 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝑭𝒐𝒓𝒈𝒆𝒕 𝑰𝒕."

My heart fluttered. Always and forever. Maybe I'll write something back to him.

"𝘔𝘪𝘴𝘴 𝘠/𝘓/𝘕... 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦?" Professor Snape had walked over to me, and I hadn't realized. "𝘓𝘦𝘵 𝘮𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘦.... 𝘢𝘩.. 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴." I cringed at his words, and turned to see Dracos face turn bright red. At that same moment, we had made eye contact. But I looked away quickly when Snape had thrown the parchment back down in my hands. "𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴... 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘯 𝘦𝘹𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘱𝘭𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦....

After class, I needed to see Draco. I knew how he felt, even if he wont admit it. Although I'm with Fred, I need Draco to know that he can still talk to me.

I finally found him, but he walked into the boys bathroom. I stood by the door, waiting for him. But thats when I heard something like whimpering. Or crying, maybe? I walked in, cautiously, whispering his name.

"𝘋𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘰? 𝘋𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘰 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘪𝘯 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦?" I said, but no response.

I pushed open one of the stalls to see him sitting there, with his head in his hands.

"𝘐𝘮 𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘺 𝘠/𝘕. 𝘐 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸. 𝘐 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥𝘯'𝘵. 𝘠𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘍𝘳𝘦𝘥. 𝘠𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺. 𝘐𝘮 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺 𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺. 𝘐 𝘫𝘶-" I needed to stop him, or else I would have started crying as well.


"𝘋𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘰 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯. 𝘠𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘮𝘺 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥. 𝘋𝘰𝘯𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘱 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘺 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥. 𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶. 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘵 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮, 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦, 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘦. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦, 𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘵 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘦. 𝘐 𝘮𝘪𝘴𝘴 𝘺𝘰𝘶."

A couple weeks pass, and everything's back to normal. Well, not normal. But normal enough.

Fred and I lay in my bed, fingers intertwined, talking about everything on our minds.

"𝘞𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘨𝘰 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘴 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦, 𝘐 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘴. 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘢 𝘩𝘶𝘨𝘦 𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘺. 𝘔𝘶𝘮 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵." Fred says. I nod my head in agreement

"𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘱? 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘎𝘦𝘰𝘳𝘨𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰? 𝘞𝘰𝘯𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘰 𝘧𝘢𝘳?" I say. I hadn't thought about George until now. Those two do everything together.

"𝘠𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵. 𝘐'𝘥 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘭𝘦𝘵'𝘴 𝘮𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘴 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘺 𝘳𝘰𝘰𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘢 𝘣𝘪𝘨 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦, 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘮𝘪𝘥𝘥𝘭𝘦 𝘰𝘧 Godrics Hollow?" He suggests. That actually sounds like a good idea.

"𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘸𝘦 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘣𝘭𝘶𝘦 𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘴? 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘢 𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘪𝘳?" I ask. I've always wanted a rocking chair.

We talk for what seems like hours, and end up falling asleep in eachother's arms.
