Harry Potter

Silence. That's what you came out into the Hogwarts courtyard after lights out for. You closed your eyes, breathing in the fresh night air.

— Do you even realize that you are breaking the rules?

The voice sounded right behind you, making you jump. You turned around abruptly and met Harry Potter's gaze.

“Oh,” was all you managed to squeeze out, feeling your heart pounding wildly.

“Lights out was an hour ago,” he continued, crossing his arms over his chest. “What are you doing here, Malfoy?”

You frowned. Your half-brother Draco was Harry's enemy, and apparently that extended to you too.

— I just took a breath of air, I didn’t think anyone would notice.

"I noticed," he replied dryly. "And now you'll have to go back to the common room. Or do you want to lose points for Slytherin?"

• Okay, okay, I'm coming.

The next morning, the Great Hall was full of students. You were rushing towards the Slytherin table when you bumped into someone at the door. The glass of pumpkin juice you were carrying spilled all over Harry's white shirt.

• Sorry! I didn't mean to! - you quickly babbled, feeling your face flush.

“It’s okay,” he said, shaking himself off.

But you couldn't stand there under the gaze of those around you. So you quickly went to your desk.

"Great. Now he'll definitely remember me," you thought, cursing your clumsiness.
