I sighed as I reminisced on the events of the past day. Harry's words had given me new hope for the future. Perhaps he could also feel what I felt we had between us. This dance of ours was beautiful, and I wished to continue it. The thoughts swirling in my mind, slowly began to drift away as I fell asleep. 

A hand nudged me awake, and my eyes flew open. "Theo!" I glared at him and he had the nerve to grin back. "Wakey, wakey, Draco," he sang mockingly. I threw my hands up, exasperated, and got out of bed. My sour thoughts slowly settled as I was reminded about Harry. Harry, Harry, Harry. But who was he to me? I had to figure that out soon. I interrupted my musings to concentrate on getting ready for school. I had DADA first thing in the morning, and I was already late. 

I woke up to the sounds of Ron searching for something in his mess of a trunk. I smiled slightly as I realized I hadn't even thought of cutting for more than a day. I knew it probably had something to do with my new friendship with Draco. It would never last. I don't know why he even wants to be my friend. Was it all just a joke to him? But what does it mean to me? Do I actually like Malfoy? Malfoy? I'm so confused, I just want to go back to sleep. I groaned as I pushed myself off the bed and stood up. I got ready soon and started walking towards Professor Binn's classroom. I was disappointed, when I remembered that this class wouldn't have Draco in it. 

I pretended everything was alright and smiled back at Hermione who was staring at me inquisitively. My smile to Ron was feeble, I knew he would hate me if he ever found out that I was attracted to Malfoy. Sixth year was turning out to be full of secrets and lies. I held on to the hope that it was just one year until I could leave Hogwarts and start my life, my own life, in the Wizarding World. But as long as Voldemort was still out there, I stood no chance. Draco and I would have made a beautiful couple in another world, but we could never be well received in this one.
