“Don’t even think about it!” Blaise huffed, slamming the door to Harry’s room wide open, wand pointed at Harry, who was reading the Potions textbook.“Sit down, shut up, and think about it. What else can I do? He’s not going to give up. You heard him.” Harry said calmly, not even looking up. “It’s the only choice.” He finally raised his eyes. “And I’ll be damned if I’m going to make myself suffer more because he won’t give up. If he wants to carry this out to its final stupidity, then so be it.”Blaise sat down, sighing. “You’re going to hurt him.”Harry raised a brow. “How can you know I will?”“How can you know you won’t?” Blaise shot back.“I can’t.” Harry answered. “But this was more his choice than mine. I’m only flesh and blood. If he’s going to dangle temptation in front of my eyes time and time again, you can’t expect me not to snap. This way, at least one of us is in control of the situation.” He said. “I won’t sleep with him until he knows who I am. You have my word on that. And I’ll do my best not to hurt him. Merlin knows, that last thing I want is his heart broken. But if this is my only chance at being with him, I intend to take it and I will cherish every last fleeting touch he gives me until the day I die.”Blaise sighed. “Well, if you mean to do this, I’ll stand by you, but if it comes down to you and Draco, you know who I’ll side with.” He said apologetically.Harry nodded. “I understand.” He said, biting his lip as Blaise left.‘I only hope I’m doing the right thing.’*****“Are you ready to leave for school tomorrow?” Arabella asked as Harry came down the stairs.Harry just growled, sitting at the table and laying his head down on it. “Wake me up when the school year’s over.” He said wearily.Blaise flicked his wand at Harry, dousing him with a stream of freezing water.Harry screamed, standing up. “You asshole! Fucking- Why did you do that?!”Arabella’s eyes were wide. “Harry! Language!”“Sorry, Bella, but your arsehole of a son is going to die now.” He said, glaring at the boy.Blaise smirked. “Rule number one: A true Slytherin never goes anywhere without his wand.”“I’m going to shove that wand up your-”“Waffles, boys. Sit down, Harry. Eat.” Arabella interrupted smoothly, a bright smile on her face.Harry sat down, cuffing Blaise upside the head as he did so.Blaise just laughed. “Just wait, you’ll see. You should get a thigh holster. Then every time you take it out, all the guys will start drooling. It’ll be hilarious.”Arabella glared at her son. “A true lady does not show off her thighs to men! Just what kind of trollops are at Hogwarts these days?!”Blaise smirked and gave a cough that sounded remarkably like “Pansy” before digging into his waffles.Harry chuckled.Draco’s owl flew in through the window and Harry ignored it, shocked when it landed in front of him, rather than Blaise. He took the letter and opened it.‘Celeste,I apologize for my abhorrent behavior yesterday, and I would like to make it up to you. If you would allow me to share a compartment with you on the Hogwarts Express, I would be honored. We will not be alone, as it would not be proper, but I wish to take the chance to get to know you better.Please accept my request.I remain,Draco Lucius MalfoyHeir of the Malfoy Family’
Blaise smiled. “Oooh, he likes you!” He teased, and Harry flushed.“Oh, shut up!” Harry hissed. “Do I write him back?”“Tell Imperious your answer. He tells Draco whether the answer is yes or no.”“Oh. Yes, then.” Harry said to the owl.Imperious flew off, and Harry groaned as Blaise smirked at him knowingly. “You know, this year might turn out interesting after all. He may forgive you anything, with how much he seems to want you.”Harry sighed to his waffles. “I hope so.”*****Draco smiled at his mother as he sat at the table. “She said yes. Don’t worry, Mother. This is the woman I will marry. I will accept no other.” He said surely.Narcissa smiled. “I’m proud of you, Draco. You’re growing into as strong a man as your father was, and you will soon surpass him. Don’t let her get away if you love her.”Draco shook his head. “I don’t plan on it.”*****Harry bit his lip, sitting beside Blaise in his light pink dress, wondering how he was going to be able to keep Hermione from realizing who he was. She was very observant, and she’d be his biggest problem.Draco walked in, smiling. “Celeste. Blaise.” He added as an afterthought. “I’m sorry for the way I acted before. I really like you, and you telling me you wouldn’t even let me try was… A bit hard to swallow.”Harry sighed, looking down at his lap. “I… Thought a lot about your proposal, and I’ve come to a decision. I will agree to getting to know you, and possibly dating, but I don’t want to get too involved, not for a long while. I have secrets, and if this goes too far, things could get very difficult for both of us. If at some point I trust you enough to reveal them, then, and only then, can this become long-term. For now, I ask that you ask of me only what I am willing to give.”“That is more than enough. I will earn your trust in time. You’ll see.” Draco said. “Are you excited about getting to see Hogwarts for the first time?”Harry shrugged. “A bit. But I’m more worried about the reception I’ll receive.” He said wryly.Blaise shrugged. “You’ll be fine. We’re with you. Draco’s pretty much the leader of Slytherin,”Draco smiled smugly, leaning back in his seat at this.“So just stick with him and none of the other Slytherins will bother you, and the other houses hardly even notice us unless we provoke them.” Blaise said calmly. “Draco used to get in fights with the Gryffindors all the time, but what with Potter gone, I think that’ll change.”Draco’s whole demeanor changed with those final words. He slumped a bit in his seat, his face wearing a pensive, slightly heartbroken look.Harry looked at him. “Are you alright?” He asked softly.Draco came back to himself at his words. “Yeah, I’m fine. I’m glad that prat is gone.” He said with false scorn.Harry smiled. “Well, let’s not dwell on the price of victory. What are the professors there like?”*****“And we have one final student joining us this year, for her final year of schooling. She had gone to Beauxbatons previously, but is living with her cousin now.” Professor McGonagall said, then looked up. “Celeste Scarletti.”Harry walked into the great hall, heading for the sorting hat. He allowed the hat to be placed on his head.‘Ah, and a new identity, hm? Will you allow me to place you in your proper house now?’‘Yes.’ Harry answered mentally.‘Very good.’ “SLYTHERIN!”Harry took the hat off and walked proudly to the Slytherin table, seeing that Blaise was a little surprised that he had really been placed there.Draco smiled. “Good, then. So, you’ll meet Professor Snape tonight.” He said.Harry’s eyes widened and he looked up at the head table, his eyes meeting Snape’s.The potions Master merely smirked at him and inclined his head slightly.Harry smiled brightly, looking excited. “I can’t wait!” He said happily.This year was going to be very interesting.*****“I would like to welcome all of our new first years, and Miss Scarletti, to the house of Slytherin. We have a few rules that are not like the other houses. We are not the most popular house in this school, so when we are out of the common room and dormitories, you are to show a united front to the school. All fights are not to be taken out of this room, lest we be divided and overcome by the others. I expect all of you to do your best in my class, and proper diligence will be rewarded. If you have any issues, you may come to me directly, or you may speak with a prefect or Mr. Malfoy, the Head Boy this year.” He said. “My congratulations on your new placement.” He turned to stare directly at Harry. “I am pleased that you are with us, Miss Scarletti. You are an asset to our house.” He said.Harry frowned. He couldn’t know who he really was, so what was that about? He looked at Blaise, who was also frowning.Blaise shrugged.Draco smirked as Severus left the room. “Celeste, why don’t you go down to your dorm with Pansy and Millicent? You must be tired.”Blaise smiled. “We have separate rooms, but we share bathrooms with our year mates.” He explained.Harry nodded his understanding. They’d have to know, then.*****“So, you’re Blaise’s cousin?” Pansy asked, sitting cross-legged on Harry’s bed.Harry sighed. “Not… Exactly. If we’re to be sharing a bathroom, there’s something I’ll need to tell you, in strictest confidence. No one can know. Not even the other Slytherins. Can I put you under a lip-locker spell before I tell you?” He asked, drawing his wand.Pansy and Millicent nodded, confused.Harry sighed, then cast the spell Blaise had taught him. Unlike the Unbreakable Vow, this spell would allow him to remove it later if he decided the secrecy was no longer needed. “My name isn’t Celeste. I’m no relation to Blaise. I’m not even a girl. Hell, everyone thinks I’m dead!” He said.Pansy frowned. “So, you’re a boy. In a skirt.” She said.Harry laughed. “I become a girl five days out of the month, and didn’t want the world to know, hence the skirt.”“So, who are you?” Millicent asked, looking at him dangerously.He gulped and wiped the cover-up from his scar.Both girls stared at him in shock. “Harry Potter?!” Pansy whispered. “In Slytherin?!”“Sorting hat wanted me here first year. I don’t see why not.” He said. “And don’t worry about the shared bathroom. I don’t mind you all seeing my bits, and I’m not interested in yours. I’m very gay.” He explained. “But you can’t let anyone else know of this. If you breathe a word of it, I will find out, and you will meet the same end Voldemort did. I don’t want to do it, but if you betray my trust, I will. I am one of the few people that could get away with it. I never wanted the idolatry that came with my name, so I let Harry Potter die publically. It’s really better this way.”Millicent nodded. “That’s fine. I don’t like boys, anyway. I won’t be looking unless you’re female.” She stated teasingly.Harry blushed. “Please don’t.” He said, and they all laughed.“I think we’ll get along just fine, Celeste Scarletti.” Pansy said happily. “So, are there any boys here you’d like to shag? Or be shagged by? Do you bottom, or top? Oh, I’ve always wanted a gay friend, and Draco doesn’t count, because he won’t talk about it!” She said happily.*****Harry was putting on his bra when Pansy walked into his bedroom the next morning, calm as you please.“Do I not deserve privacy?” He asked dryly, slipping his fake breasts into the bra.Pansy rolled her eyes. “I want to do your make-up.” She said simply.Harry put on his shirt and tie, then sat on the bed. “Fine, then.”*****“Celeste.” Draco breathed, staring at Harry as he emerged into the common room to find Blaise and Draco waiting for him. “You look lovely.”Pansy smirked. “I told her that the eyeliner would make her eyes stand out more. She only grudgingly let me apply it.” She finished.Harry blushed. “I think it makes me look harsh.” He said softly.Draco smirked, walking up to him, taking his hand. “It makes you look very strong-willed and dangerous. Both of which can be very sexy in a woman. You could never look harsh.” He said.Blaise cleared his throat pointedly. “We have class. Draco, I’m sure Celeste would hate to be late for her first Potions class.”Draco sighed in disgust. “Yes, Mother, I’ll stop flirting, thank you. Why do you hate me so much?” He asked Blaise conversationally.Blaise smirked. “Because you’re pompous and conniving, and I don’t want you in my family.”Draco raised an eyebrow. “Pity. You’re going to be sorely disappointed.” He replied.Blaise shrugged. “Perhaps. Perhaps not.”For those that want update notices, join my yahoo group: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/sablesfics/info
