Harry potter was thinking. He, contratry to popular belief, was incredibly smart. Today… he was thinking of doing something incredibly stupid. One of the stupidest things he could ever do. Ask Draco Malfoy, the slytherin ice prince himself, out on a date. An actual date. Like, bring him flowers, have a nice dinner, and maybe a kiss at the end of the night. Those kind of dates. He was currently trying to find his Gryffindor courage, which was currently hiding under his bed, along with his cojones. Just do it. The worst he could say is no. harry thought to himself. That was a lie. The worst thing he could do was laugh in his face and then tell him no. He just had to buck up the courage and do it. He took out his map and looked around for Draco's name. He was up in the astronomy tower. He quickly got out of bed, put on his shoes and made it up to the tower before Draco had time to leave.
"Potter! What are you doing here?" Draco asked, sneering at harry. Draco however, didn't hate harry at all. He was quite fond of the golden boy. This is why harry's next sentence took him by surprise.
"Go out with me" harry said, slightly out of breath.
"Pardon me?" Draco asked, his eyes widening.
"Go out with me. I want to take you out on a date. An actual date." He said, and Draco smiled slightly.
"You mean with flowers and a nice walk near the lake before you take me back to my dorm?" he asked, and harry nodded smiling at him. God Draco was beautiful. He slowly made his way over to harry, and bent his head down to whisper into his ear seducitivly.
"My favorite flowers are tulips. Pick me up at seven" he whispered, and walked down the stairs, feeling amazingly happy. Harry grinned. He actually had a date with Draco Malfoy.
At 6:30, he put on a white shirt, with a straight back tie and blue jeans. He put on his blazer, and grabbed the light blue tulips off of his bed. He had transformed a pillow into them and they felt beautifully soft. Harry made his way down to the snake pit. When he knocked on the portiat, pansy opened.
"Come in" she said, and held it open for him. he went in, and stood by the portiat.
"Draco told us about you asking him out. I haven't seen him that excited since… well ever to be honest with you." She said, and he smiled.
"I'm glad he's excited. I'm a bit nervous" he said, and she smiled kindly at him. She wasn't all that bad.
"Hey" Draco said, and harry looked up to see him decending the stairs. He had on a white shirt, with a nice pair of slacks and dress shoes.
"You look amazing" harry said, and Draco smiled.
"Thank you. Are those for me?" he asked, and harry nodded, giving him the flowers.
"I love the light blue ones. Thank you" he said, blushing slightly. Pansy took them from him and went to find a vase.
"Hey were gonna go, I'll see you guys later" Draco said, and they left the common room. Harry had set up a romantic dinner in the room of requirement. Harry slowly reached out and held Draco's hand. When he didn't protest, he squeezed it lightly and they made their way upstairs.
When they reached the room, they went in and Draco gasped. There were thousdans of tiny candles all around the room, lighting it up.
"This is… amazing" he said, and harry grinned.
"Only the best. Come on." He said, and they sat down. They ate sushi, and talked about the future, and what they wanted to do after school. Draco had become interested in healing, while harry… he really didn't know.
After dinner, they made their way to the lake.
"It's nice out here isn't it?" harry asked and Draco nodded.
"Beautiful. I just wish it was warmer" Draco said, and harry smiled and shook off his blazer and wrapped it around Draco's shoulders.
"Thanks" he said, and harry nodded.
"So. Tonight was… amazing" Draco said, and harry grinned.
"I'm glad I found my courage" he said, and Draco nodded.
"I'm glad you did too. I would never have asked you." He said and harry smiled.
"Why?" he asked.
"Really? I'm the ice prince. I would have thought you'd say no." he said, looking into harry's warm green eyes.
"You don't look like the ice prince to me… you look quite warm" he whispered, and slowly pressed his lips to Draco's. he felt Draco's slowly wrap around harry's neck, and harry felt his arms go around Draco's waist. When they broke apart, Draco was smiling.
"That felt perfect" he whispered, and kissed harry again, this time deeper and with more feeling. When they broke apart again, harry wrapped his arm around Draco's waist and they made their way up to the castle.
When they made it to the slytherin entrance, harry paused.
"I had a really amazing time tonight. Thank you for everything harry, I appreciate it" Draco said and harry nodded.
"Listen Draco… I want to ask you something, and it might be a bit of a shock. But… I like you, a lot. And I want to know if maybe you'd like to be my boyfriend" harry said, his cheeks turning pink.
"I'd like that." Draco said, and he pressed his soft lips to harry's.
"I better get inside. They'll be worrying about me." Draco said, and harry nodded, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek before turning around. He grinned all the way back to Gryffindor tower. Best night ever. Harry thought to himself as he got into bed. But it wasn't. They were sure to have many best nights, one always trumping the last. But harry would always remember the day he asked Draco Malfoy out on a date.
