Draco woke up the next morning to Harry's head buried in his shoulder. He smiled and just lay there for a minute, but before long he heard banging on their door, then heard Pansy say, "Wake up, losers, or I'll wake you up myself!" Harry, who was used to hearing his uncle yell, and therefore was a heavy sleeper, didn't wake up. Draco, however, noticed her, and pushed Harry off of him gently. Letting him sleep, he shushed Pansy, and, walking to his side of the room to get changed, simply said "Out, please." He got dressed and did his makeup quickly, then woke up the sleeping raven-haired boy with a kiss on the cheek. Harry, rolling over, said, "Good morning" sleepily.

Draco smiled and said, "Come on, dear, you need to get ready for the day"

"But it's Saturday..." he said, stretching out the last word

"Exactly, this is the day we get to do whatever we want, Hogsmeade day"

"Fine, give me five more minutes though? Please?" He said, giving Draco puppy eyes "Alright, makeup?"

"Sure, but do something new today"

"Alright"

"Can I borrow some of your clothes?"

"Sure, go ahead" Draco said, putting things into a black canvas tote bag with snakes on it in, you guessed it, silver.

When Harry thought about it, the sleep of the past night was the best he had ever gotten, sleeping beside the blonde. He pondered this as he was getting ready, as Draco did his makeup, as Draco was grabbing his bag and then his hand and walking out of their dorm. On Hogsmeade days when he was still in Gryffindor, everybody left the dorms, split up and went wherever they wanted or needed to. But this time, it was only seven people. Draco had introduced him to the week before, when they were making the plans for Hogsmeade days. The first one was a girl, named Tabitha, or 'Tabby' as everyone called her, and the second was Felix. Tabitha was outspoken and kind, and her eyes sparkled with something like mischief. She was tall, almost 6 feet, with pale skin, black hair, and, inexplicably, lavender eyes Felix was shorter, around Harry's height, with reddish-blonde hair, teal eyes, with rose skin. He and Tabby acted like brother and sister, always ribbing one another, joking around, having a great time. They made everyone around them happy. Of course, Pansy and Blaise were there, they were Draco's best friends. But, unexpectedly, Hermione also wanted to come. "My new housemates are very boring." She said on the first day of sitting at the Slytherin table for meals. "I've become quite accustomed to drama and excitement from being around Harry for this long, so even if Ronald is being a prick, I'll still be friends with you lot." Harry was very happy about this. He had been honest when he said the Hermione was his only real friend from Gryffindor "I've wanted to be friends with Draco, Blaise and Pansy for a while anyways." she blushed when she said Pansy's name, but nobody, save for Pansy herself, noticed. Tabby and Felix, of course, also became quick friends with her, as well as Draco, Blaise and Pansy, though neither Harry nor Hermione had ever heard him speak. He was kind though, just didn't show it in the same way as most people. He showed it through kind gestures, like your favourite food when you were sad, or helping you out when you missed classes. At least, that's what Draco told him. Harry had still not heard him, and though Draco had said that Blaise was slowly becoming more comfortable around him, Harry wasn't so sure. Blaise did seem kind though. Wait, Harry thought, last night, what was it that Draco asked me? Oh my Merlin. He asked me out!

Draco was looking at Harry as they walked, whilst Harry was thinking, and when he noticed the look of surprise on the raven-haired boy's face, he said, "What's wrong, Harry? You look surprised." Harry shook his head and snapped out of his thoughts and back into the real world.

"Oh, nothing" he said, a bit sheepishly "I was just thinking about what you said last night." He looked away, and Draco laughed. "What, don't tell me that the wizarding world's saviour is getting cold feet about a silly date?"

"No, definitely not. It's just that I was going to ask you today. Guess you beat me to it."

Hope you guys like the story so far! Apologies for not updating there for a while- things got really crazy with my life after last May(like hospital stay- and more- crazy) This will most likely be updated as I have time, but with my new job and taking care of a sibling, it most likely won't be frequent, so sorry about that. Hope you enjoy the further chapters!
