I'm gay
I knew this since then but i denied it because at first i was uncomfortable with accepting myself as i am,
I actually doubted my self being straight when i first felt attracted to a boy.
In the robe shop at Diagon alley theres this boy who seemed not so nice but actually cool,he had his blonde hair gelled to the back showing his cool looking hairline,while mine looked like a nest,it's just everything i do it just won't be neaten.
The boy was talking to me and before i could ask his name,his father went inside and got the boy,
Apparently his robes just finished and they have to leave because of an urgent matter.
Well that was when i was 11
I never actually had a proper crush on someone untill that day,since im always locked up in my room or mostly in the dursley's house cleaning or getting a nice beating.

"The sorting will begin momentarily"
Mcgonagall announced walking away into the huge door infront of us,
A boy walked towards me with other kids who looked like his personal body guard
"So it's true, then. What they're saying on the train. Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts." The blonde kid said,
He was that kid i met at the robeshop,i didn't expect to see him here
"This is Crabbe, and Goyle.
And I'm Malfoy.
Draco Malfoy." He added emphasizing the name 'Malfoy',
Ron,who was beside me snickered a bit and the blonde kid quickly looked at him with offended eyes
"Think my name's funny, do you? Well, no need to ask yours. Red hair, and a hand-me-down-robe? You must be a Weasley."
He bit insulting Ron,imean,just because he's some rich kid he can act like a little brat.
"You'll soon find out some wizarding families are better than others, Potter. You don't want to go making friends with the wrong sort. I can help you there"
He suggested while handing me his hand to shake for agreement,as i got more angrier on how he insulted my friend and aswell as me:
" I think I can tell the wrong sort for myself, thanks."i said coldly,watching his face turns from a smirking jerk to a disappointed puppy
~~~~~~~~~~~
That's how our first proper conversation went... kind of expected actually
My "crush" on that boy that so happened to be Draco Malfoy,i thought if i dont put too much thoughts to it i could actually forget about it,
Malfoy and i have been enemies for Merlin knows how long and i thought my hatred for him is greater than this feelings,but
That moment.
That specific moment on our 3rd year during Hagrid's outside class,
You know what moment that is.
He was just there his hair loose,it looked cute to be honest,but i wouldn't admit it out loud,he was walking towards me looking at me as if he wanted to own me,he smirked and looked at me up and down,
It felt funny,
At that moment i knew right away i do fell at first sight,at my sworn enemy,unfortunately.

"Harry?...Harry!" Ginny almost yelled,
It's like she's controlling me everytime.
"What?" I bit,quickly changing my facial expression when Ron looked at me
"Who are you looking at?"
"Where?"
"At the slytherin's table"
"Im looking at no one Ginny,honestly if you've known me long enough,you should've known that i often zone out"
I said almost sarcastically
"Ugh fine whatever" she rolled her eyes
"Hermione was asking you something byw"she quickly said changing the subject
"I did not" Hermione bit looking up from a book she's reading for the 16th time.
"Hey Harry,what do you think of this?"
Ron asked handing me the daily prophet headlining Draco Malfoy's name
Hermione snatched the daily prophet from Ron and read it knowing if we read it ourselves we would skip 300 words...
"Draco Malfoy himself stated that he was
pressured to take the mark:
'I took the mark out of pressure and because of my father and Voldemort' the young Malfoy said,
At first i was shocked that he wasn't scared to say The Dark Lord's name,that's just a great evidence that he is finally gone.
Lucius Malfoy,one of Voldemort's most loyal subject surrendered to the media and said his Apologies publicly,it was mainly because their connection as a family finally grew,which is something they lacked off for years,the Minister also stated that if Lucius Malfoy ever commit a crime,even the tiniest one he will be sent back to Azkaban" Hermione took a deep breath after reading it in one breath,
"It's great actually,and about Lucius's temporary freedom,if that 'tiniest' one does that include racism,homophobia,bullying and torture?" i said giving my opinion while handing Hermione a cup of pumpkin juice
'thanks' she whispered
"i think so,one wrong move he'll be back in Azkaban,but setting that aside i do think it's great to see Malfoy changing"
"Great!?" Ron argued
"Well,why not?imean do you remember that time he ran from the dark side and threw me a wand at me to protect myself?"
"Still,that little thing can't be compared to everything he did to us,to you"
"Ron,honestly shut up" Hermione bit breaking the argument while wiping her mouth with a napkin
"If Malfoy hadn't thrown him a wand he could've been killed right infront of our eyes" Hermione added
"I agree with Hermione" both Seamus and Dean said in union
"Ginny?" Neville asked,as if he was asking for Ginny's opinion
"Yeah i agree whatever" she just said.
She's getting to my nerves...
"What's wrong with you?" Ron asked with a hint of anger and annoyance
"Nothing,ima just go"
"Fine"
(Hermione's Pov)
I know who Harry was looking at,I'm not stupid,i just dont know why...
Imean their thing about sworn enemies ended,sort of since the battle,he couldn't just be zoning out directly pointed at Malfoy...
Could it be..
I gasped in shock when i thought of something i never expected.
"What?" Harry asked me curiously to why did i gasped so loud
(Harry's Pov)
"It's nothing Harry" she winked at me
"Gross"Ron said which made him and Hermione have one of those little fights that lasts 7 hours,*sigh* rlly i would kill to have what they have
When we finished our breakfast me and Hermione have a free period while Ron have potions,sucks for him if you ask me,
Hermione and i went to the gryffindor common room and sat together on the sofa,
"So it's Malfoy?"
"What?"
"Im not stupid Harry"
"I know that but what do you mean by the Malfoy part"
"You like him don't you?"
"What? Where did this come from?"i asked as sweat flowed our of my system as fast as blinking
"C'mon Harry,you can be honest with me"
She reasured me,
Maybe.. just maybe i can tell her.
"Yes"i said in almost like a whisper but loud enough so Hermione could hear
"It's alright Harry,no matter what you are I'll always be here for you" Hermione said giving Harry a hug
"Thanks Mione,really" i hugged her back..
She's seriously such a good frien—
"So..when did it start" she asked cutting my thoughts
"11"
"THAT LONG?" She almost screamed,luckily were the only ones in the tower
"Yeah?"
"So you like fell inlove at first sight?"
"no not really"i started off and gave her the full details....
.
.
.
.
"So you thought this whole enemy thing were supposed to help you get rid of your feelings for Malfoy?"
"Basically" i replied.
"Did you know that Dean and Seamus recently started dating"
"What?" I said realizing the hints they gave us
"well isn't that intresting" i chuckled and looked at Dean and Seamus secretly holding hands under the table
"they look good together,don't they?"
Hermione asked me like she was just so so proud of them
"you sound like a mom" i laughed,she smacked my shoulder and laughed at me aswell
"Mione?"
"hm?"
"do you think Ron would hate me for this?"
"you being gay? Ofcourse not,imean he's an i***t,that's for sure but he isn't that stupid to let a sexuality end your friendship you know" She explained
"no,imean me liking other people while im dating his only sister"
"well..im not really sure,Ron do love Ginny alot and maybe he'll accept you for who you are,but he's gonna need some time to accept who you want to be with"
she explained carefully...
maybe she's right.... after all,
Ron and i are so close we're family.
