Chapter 3: That far already?? 'I envy you very much, you know that? You almost walked non stop for more than 20 hours' Draco silently said. 'Thanks, and I know how hard this must be for you, being stuck with me and all that'. 'It's not that bad, and we'll probably win this, none of the others are as stupid as you to walk so much in one day'. 'We'll just have to get to post 5 tomorrow so we can get up at 8 o'clock'. 'Phew, I was worried you wanted to walk to post 7 already tomorrow'. Harry laughed. 'No, we just have to make it to 5 and we can see if we feel like walking some more'. 'Okay, now lets get to 4'. They walked on and about 1 hour later they reached post 4. 'I kinda like this, it's fun' Draco suddenly said. 'You do? I thought you hated walking'. 'I don't anymore, I enjoy spending time with you'. 'I never thought I would say this but I like it too'. 'I guess this was Dumbledore's idea'. 'Yeah, I would like to know how Ron and Goyle are doing'. 'Yeah me too, if they are still alive'. Harry playfully punched Draco on the arm. Harry and Draco rolled out Draco's sleeping bag. Draco turned off the light when they both were dressed for bed. Harry was going to sleep without a sleeping bag, as he thought Draco needed rest. 'Goodnight' Harry mumbled. 'Goodnight Harry, and thanks for carrying me'. 'No problem'. They were silent for a while. 'Harry?'. 'Yes?'. 'Do you, erm, do you think we could be friends?'. 'Why do you want that?'. 'I don't have many friends, Crabbe and Goyle are just for the image, nobody loves me, my dad doesn't like me too much and I don't know how my mother feels about me. I just want a friend'. 'Well, I guess we can try to be friends, and I'm sorry Draco'. 'Why?'. 'Because of the life you have got, it must be hard for you'. 'It is, but you get used to it'. 'Do you want to erm, do you want to be a deatheater?'. 'No! I never wanted that! I hate Voldemort. I have always wondered, if Voldemort didn't exist, would my father be nicer to me? And would we be friends then? Good friends?'. 'I don't know, I wish Voldemort didn't exist, then my parents would still be alive'. A silence followed. 'Aren't you cold?' Draco asked. 'No'. 'Okay, goodnight Harry'. 'Goodnight Draco'. And they went to sleep. A/N: The next chapter will be longer again. Review!! |
