*Based off of an old one's not* Draco has lived under his father's thumb his whole life, and gone along with whatever he said for as long as he can remember, but this year-his fourth at Hogwarts-he might change that for the boy he has fallen in love with. And perhaps that might just be what will save the life of one Harry James Potter.

Something was up with Ginny, and I was going to figure out what. That's what my original intentions were. I had no idea that would mean sneaking through the dead of night, braving the unknown territories of a crime boss's club, befriending an enemy, and risking my life, all because the girl I loved was acting differently the first day of school. Rated T for mild language and gangs

Draco and Harry get partnered for homework over winter break, but can they work past their differences to get it done on time? And, in the process, will they perhaps discover that they were wrong to hate each other to begin with? And what will their families think if they do? Many thanks to my wonderful beta, theladykate22, for making this story so good. Rated T for mild language.

What if Draco asked Harry to go to the Yule Ball with him? This probably should have been rated K plus, but I went on the safe side. Also, many thanks to my wonderful beta, theladykate22! That's all I have to say.
