An important difference between them was this: Harry felt jealousy. Draco felt envy.
Draco, who’d had everything, wanted others’ possessions. He’d been envious for so long: Harry the Quidditch prodigy, the rich, the famous - that it came as a shock when he started feeling sympathy for the orphan instead.
Harry, who’d grown up with nothing, watching Dudley get everything, had never been envious. Instead, he jealously guarded what he did have.
Draco was laughing up at Blaise; a warm arm curled around him, and Harry was there; jealous of Draco’s attentions, engendering envy from those who wanted him.
Draco smiled.
