Where is the \'Malfoy\' in \'DA\'?

Startled, his pale hand quickly shot to his left
thigh, feeling a sudden heat emanate from the round object in his pocket.
“Uh, Malfoy?” Lloyd looked at his friend strangely as
he said this.
Draco glanced up hastily, away from his thigh, at his
comrade.
“Just felt a pinch is all…” at this the blond
Slytherin swiftly got up from his seat, picking up his belongings from his
table.
“I’ve got to go. I just remembered I had something to
do for… uh… my father…” Lloyd raised an eye brow suspiciously at him.
“What?” the Malfoy snapped as Ramsden kept
staring at him that doubtful way.
“I just need to go! I’ll see you later…” but as Draco
left the library, he did not walk very far. In the corridor, finding a dark
corner to hide in, he ran towards it, letting his belongings drop loudly to
floor and inelegantly searched in his left pocket for the warm object.
“Lumos…” he whispered impatiently as he drew
his wand above the coin.
11/28… The next meeting’s tonight!
And so, the grinning Slytherin sprinted to his dormitory…

Harry had to prevent himself from grinning as he
looked at Malfoy walking into the room and letting himself fall heavily on one
of the cushions, as far away from everybody else that were present.
Harry felt happier than he had always been ever since
the school year had begun, which simply felt strange to him at the same time,
since that happiness was caused by none other than Draco Malfoy.
“Harry?” it was Hermione’s voice brought him out of
his thoughts.
“Er… maybe you should start explaining what we’re
going to do tonight, Harry, everyone’s here now…” Hermione continued.
“Oh, yeah… sorry… er… well…” Harry glanced at Malfoy,
only to receive the trademark smirk, but for once, this only made the
Gryffindor smile.
“I thought it would be good if we practiced the
Impediment Jinx… All of you know how it works, right?” everyone nodded in
response and of course, Malfoy snorted.
“Alright then, pair up with someone and we can start
practicing.”
After a few minutes, every member stood waiting with
their partners, except two…
“I am not pairing up with Longbottom again,
Potter.” Malfoy snapped bitterly, folding his arms across his chest in a
stubborn manner.
Oh, this is just too hilarious!
“Well, it seems you don’t really have any other choice
now do you, Malfoy?” as the blond boy murderously glared at him, Harry had to
force back down the laughter that was threatening to erupt. Tormenting Draco
Malfoy was definitely entertaining…
“Alright then, we’re all set… you can start!” Harry
exclaimed cheerfully, giving one last mocking look at Malfoy. The Slytherin had
taken out his wand, shouting “Impedimenta!” angrily, giving Harry one
last fierce glance as he waited for Neville to unfreeze.

Oh, please… This is ridous…ous…
A certain blond haired Slytherin had been staring at
The Boy-Who-Lived for several minutes now and with every passing second,
Draco’s mood did not lighten as he kept getting angrier and angrier, watching
the raven haired boy talking- flirting with that…
That annoying bitch!
He thought bitterly, glaring at the Asian girl. If looks could kill, Cho would
have been a pile of shouldering ash by now…
Why, the fact that Harry kept talking with the
Ravenclaw girl was upsetting him, Draco had a pretty good idea, or at least he
thought he did…
He looks so stupid! Does he even realize how
stupid he looks? And why did he have to drool over such an annoying brat?
“Impedimenta!!” Draco barked as the Jinx
bounced on Neville yet again, his eyes never leaving the couple at the other
side of the room.
As he caught sight of Harry laughing at one of Cho’s
comments, his glare intensified, if that was even possible…
God, he’s so pathetic!
The Malfoy boy had to hold back his urge to stroll
over to them and hit the girl behind the head.
Finally, after what had seemed an eternity to Draco,
Harry stopped talking to Cho to look down at his watch.
Finally! If I had taken more of this pitiful
sight, I might have thrown up!
The Gryffindor blew in his whistle, which silenced
everyone in the room.
“Well that’s it for tonight everyone! You all did a
great job!” Harry said optimistically, smiling at everyone, and with that said,
everyone drew back their wands and began walking out of the room in small
groups saying their goodbyes to each other.

Sure, as if you noticed any of their progress,
Potter! You were too busy flirting with that… that
excuse of a girl!
the last ones left in the room, Draco gone unnoticed.
“I had a greate toe tonight, Harry…” the Asian girl
began, smiling beautifully at the Gryffindor. “Maybe we could hang out some
time?”
“W-Well… er… y-yeah…” was Harry’s clumsy reply as Cho
walked out of the room, winking. The dark haired boy stood there, staring
contemplatively at the door but was abruptly shaken out of his musing as a loud
snort erupted from behind him.
“You are pathetic, Potter. Some might have
thought, being the great hero, you are would have at least given you a
little bit more grace with women… what a laugh!” a mischievous smirk traced
Draco’s pale lips at Harry’s apparent embarrassment.
“Like you’re any better, Draco?” a soft shiver
ran down through the blond boy’s body yet again at the use of his first name,
the display of awkwardness slightly satisfying Harry.
“I could get any girl in this school…” Draco
started proudly. “You should use that scab on your forehead at your advantage,
Potter, you never know, it might help.” His icy blue eyes were now mocking.
Harry folded his arms. “Excuse me, but unlike you, I
don’t want to take advantage of anyone.”
“Aaaaw, is the lil Gwyffindow afwaid of being mean?”
“No, I just don’t want to make a fool of myself…”
“You’ve done a pretty good job at doing just that
already, so what’s the problem?”

At this, Harry raised a mocking eyebrow.
“At least I don’t have the hassle of a girl hanging on
to my arm like that awful hag Pansy does to you all the time!”
The dark haired boy smirked at the Slytherin’s loss of
words. Draco could only pout slightly in his oh-so adorable way.
“You should pay me royalties for that one, Potter…”
the silver haired boy said after several minutes, his pout disappearing.
“Oh, please…” Harry waved his hand in an aristocratic
manner. This would be the only royalties he would pay his fellow
Slytherin. Draco could not hold back the grin that spread across his face and
Harry was all too happy to imitate the gesture.
“We should leave…” Draco nodded at the Gryffindor’s
statement, slowly walking out of the room by his side.
mso-ansi-language:EN-CA'>The two boys strolled side by side through the dark
corridors for a long while, not really considering where they both were heading
to; they just walked, comfortable with each other’s presence.
“I’m really glad that we’ve become…er… friendlier with
each other. It was really annoying having you always insulting me like that.
I’m really happy that we can finally get to… um… know each other…” the raven
haired boy seemed very nervous as he said these words, looking down at his feet
and scratching his head.
Draco could only stare both in confusion and
admiration at the boy.
How can he speak of his emotions so freely?
Not hearing any reply from the blond Slytherin, Harry
looked up quickly at Draco, needing to raise his head slightly as the Malfoy
boy was somewhat taller then him. Feeling stupid, Harry could only gaze in the
icy blue eyes anxiously in search of any sign of mock in them, but Draco simply
looked as if he had not even heard a word of what Harry had said… like he had
not even listened…
“You didn’t listen to a single word I said, did you?”
Harry asked, looking back at his feet, kicking himself mentally for letting
himself sound so disappointed.
“… I agree… with what you said…” Draco finally
admitted hesitatingly, making Harry stop dead in his steps to look back at him
instantly, his emerald eyes wide. He had not even noticed that their walk had
led them to the Gryffindor common room entrance.
As Harry kept
staring into Draco’s eyes, he let a smile spread on his lips.
The boys stood at the portrait opening beaming at each
other for several minutes.
"Well, I guess I should go then… " said Draco reluctantly as he
realized how long he had been staring into those emerald pools, smiling. Harry
dropped his gaze from the blond boy's deep, enticing eyes and stopped smiling.
"Yeah, I guess so… Well, I'll see you around
then, Draco..." at these words, Draco turned around and flashing a brief,
yet genuine smile at Harry, walking to the Slytherin dungeon leaving a bemused
Gryffindor in his wake.
"Woah…" Harry let out his breath and began
to walk to his own tower.
Unknown to them, a jealous conniving Slytherin was watching them from the
shadows. Pansy was very confused; why was her Draco smiling at Potter?
He did not even smile at her! Suddenly, an evil smirk, not as elegant and well
founded as the Malfoy one, mind you, crept across her face, and she walked away
chuckling mischievously...
