Night had fallen on the Quidditch pitch when the smaller of the two boys had gotten very cold. “I can’t believe I forgot my jacket again. I always do this.” Scorpius complained as he demounted the broom and put his feet on the ground.“Albus usually reminds me, but he has not talked to me since breakfast.” He added with a slight frown.
“Well he has that new girlfriend right?” David asked taking the broom from Scorpius who had began to shiver.
“I don’t think she is his girlfriend, they just went on one date tonight and…”
“And tomorrow they will be boyfriend and girlfriend. Trust me Scor I know what I’m talking about.” He said with an air of haughtiness. “These things happen fast at our age. Common’ let’s go sit in the stands and talk for a bit.” Scorpius followed David up to the stands where the two boys sat down. “So tell me Scor? What’s your love life like? Any girls you fancy?”
Scorpius was taken aback by this question. Why, after never even associating with him before, was David so interested in his personal life. “Not really.” He answered sounding unsure of what would be the right thing to say.
David simply grinned one of his famous smiles and added. “Any boys you fancy?”
At this question Scorpius’ heart skipped a beat. “Wha? I don’t know what you are talking about.” He said hastily.
“So I was right then.” David declared victoriously. “You are gay!” Scorpius heart began to race even faster. He was unsure whether to argue with David, or just let him know the truth. But if he told David the truth, Albus would find out, and he may want to no longer be friend with Scorpius. He just remained quiet. As if reading his mind, a few seconds later David added, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell Potter.”
Scorpius’ heart slowed a bit and he caught his breath. “How did you figure out I was…” Unable to complete the question he simply stared off into the sky.
“I can always tell.” David said with a laugh. “Not to mention you turned down that beautiful brunette last year. All the guys wanted her and you rejected her. Dead give away my friend.” Scorpius recalled the time last year when Amanda Price had asked him out on a date. He respectfully declined, knowing that he could never like a girl as more than just a friend. “She was heartbroken.” David mused. “But I’m glad you turned her down.” At this curious statement, Scorpius looked at David. “If you had not, you would never have a chance with me.”
“Wait a minute, you are gay too?” Scorpius stammered.
“Gay? Hell no. I don’t want to limit myself to one gender.”
“Oh.” Was the only reply Scorpius could think of. The entire situation made him feel venerable. He wished he could be exploring the castle with Albus, not having awkward conversations with a boy he hardly knew.
“But don’t allow that little fact to make you think that I am not interested in you Scorpius Malfoy.” David said taking Scorpius hand into his own. “I am very interested.” He smiled wickedly, in the dim light he looked to Scorpius like a dark predator, nothing like the charming boy who had asked to spend a day at the Quidditch pitch.
“Well thank you.” Scorpius replied stupidly, still uncertain how to react.
“Thank you? Is that all you have to say Scorpius?” David said becoming annoyed. “I have been trying to charm you all evening and that’s all you can say?”
Scorpius shook his head nervously. “No, well, um I think you are good looking, but so do most people, so um…” This seemed to appease David who loosened his grasp on Scorpius’ hand.
“Is that so?” He said almost cruelly. “Well I have been watching you since the beginning of the year. You have changed a great deal. I mean I always thought you were cute, but now, you seem to have lost your baby fat. Scorpius I can’t take my eyes off of you.” Under normal circumstances, Scorpius would be feeling very flattered by David’s omission. But alone with David’s true self far from the castle, he was simply frightened. All he could do was wait and see what happened next. “Do you want me?” David asked.
Startled by such a forward question Scorpius attempted to take his hand back from the larger boy, but David only held tighter to him. “I-I don’t really…”
“Don’t really what?” He demanded.
“I don’t really want that sort of thing…” Scorpius replied lowering his head so David could not see the fear on his face.
“Well then,” the other boy began, his voice diminishing to an evil dark tone “I suppose I will just have to tell Potter your secret. I doubt he will want to talk to you once he knows. No one wants to have a poofer for a best friend.”
“No please don’t!” Scorpius began to beg as tears ran down his face “Tell me what you want me to do and I’ll do it! Just please don’t tell Al that I’m gay!”
“I’m glad you see things my way.” David answered. He took Scorpius shaking hand and placed it at the apex of his jeans which were concealing a large bulge. “It’s okay Scor,” he began to say as he grabbed a fistful of hair and pushed the blonde’s head toward the bulge, “I promise not to ask much of you… yet.”
By the time Scorpius returned to the dorm Albus had already gone to bed, and for this he was grateful. After what had just happened between him and David, Scorpius was not certain he could face his best friend without shame written on his face, not to mention that Albus would instantly notice he was upset about something and probably question him. Luckily this night he could avoid questioning, but he was certain there would be nights to come that fate would not be so giving. Still, if it was in the name of saving their friendship, Scorpius would do whatever he had to.
As he changed into his pajamas he was careful to avoid his swollen and in some places lacerated lips. Even without irritation they stung in places. He got into bed and for the first time in four years closed the curtains to his four poster bed. Before they had always remained open for late night conversations with Albus, but tonight they would be closed to prevent that very thing.
