Chapter 15
It was Friday. Harry was on his way to meet Draco for a drink. He was excited and he didn't know why. He just assumed it was to do with the soul mate thing.
When he entered the Leaky Cauldron, Draco was sat waiting for him, with two butterbeers in front of him. When Draco spotted Harry, his face lit up. Harry sat down opposite him and was handed a butterbeer.
"Hello, Draco."
"Hello, Harry." They both found this meeting a little awkward at first.
"I'm going to McGonagall on Monday, with Hermione, to find out more about this soul mate thing. Hermione thinks she has a soul mate too." Harry recalled from last night.
"I thought that this only happened once every thousand years." Draco was now even more confused about the soul mate information that he's read.
"So did I, that's why we are going to McGonagall. Care to join us?" Harry asked.
"Just you and Hermione?"
"And possibly her soul mate too." Harry smiled.
"Who's her soul mate?"
"Luna Lovegood." Harry could tell that Draco wasn't completely sure who that was.
"Is that the one everyone used to call Looney in school."
"Yes."
"Ah, I remember. Personally, I didn't agree with everyone calling her that." From this, Harry knew that Draco had always been a different person on the inside than he had been on the outside. "She was just being herself."
"Exactly. Hermione hasn't talked to Luna yet though, so I'm not sure if she's going to come with us."
Draco was happy that he and Harry were getting on well. "I'll be there though. You will have to tell me what time when you know, but I'll be there. I want to know more about this situation."
"It would be nice to know more." They finished their drink and decide to go into Diagon Alley. They were having fun together. More fun than they thought they could have. When it came time for Harry and Draco to part ways, they had found out a lot more about each other. They said goodbye and left, both of them content with their first meeting as 'friends'.
