Chapter 1 — Something Different
Harry Potter had always thought Draco Malfoy was annoying.
Draco had a talent for appearing wherever Harry happened to be and making some irritating comment.
But during their fifth year at Hogwarts, something began to change.
Harry noticed Draco watching him during meals.
At first, Harry ignored it.
Then he started noticing it everywhere.
In the library.
In the corridors.
Even during Quidditch practice.
One afternoon, Harry caught Draco staring.
Their eyes met.
Draco immediately looked away.
Harry frowned.
That was strange.
Very strange.
