Authors: kusanobabe05 [kusanosakura] and socia0307
Pairing: DracoxHarry, implied RonxHermione,
Fandom : HP
Notes: Compatible up to the bathroom scene between Draco and Harry in Half-blood Prince- minus the Ginny interest. After that is completely AU…
Warning: drarry gets rather aggressive so be warned. I lost Harry's first time. sorry. It happened between chapter two and chapter three.
Chapter 8
Draco looked over the classroom. Everything was set up to seem as if he was trying to make an insulting potion but messed up and made a love potion instead. His friends had no idea what he was doing and were about to get the shock of their lives.
He drank it and they walk to the great hall. He saw Harry walking and smiled, from the heart of the sight of his secret boyfriend. This...was going to be fun...
Harry was still slightly clueless which was probably good. He was willing to do anything if it meant they wouldn't have to hide they were a couple and serious about each other. But for future Potions Master Draco Malfoy to mess up a potion it seemed wrong...he had managed not to blow up anything despite not being paired with Draco today. He was on his way to the Great Hall while Ron argued with Hermione on how exactly he was not at fault for the failure of their potion. Harry sighed, it was nice they didn't have to hide how THEY felt about each other unlike him and Draco.
Draco checked his time piece and started to talk to Crabbe about something until the he spell he put on Harry's shoes decided to set itself off, which will trip the younger teen up.
Harry's worn sneakers untied themselves sending Harry falling to the stone floor. He grumbled silently, this would hurt and Draco would pay eventually. He hadn't quite made it to the entrance to the great Hall so he wasn't going to be a hazard to the other students milling about.
Like the speed of light, Draco flew to Harry's side, "Harry, are you all right," his concern and worried written on his face as he slowly helped the other boy up, "You're not hurt anywhere are you?"
Harry blinked, "Malfoy? What the hell? Did you trip me or something? It's not like you give a damn about me. " he snapped, "Wouldn't your side be happy if I just took myself out and saved you the trouble?" his words were cruel and untrue but his eyes were apologetic.
Ron tried to tug Malfoy off, "Gerroff him. Why do you care you stupid snake..."
Hermione stared in confusion, Draco had been acting odd the other day. What was the matter with him, being kind to Harry? He hadn't cared when Harry showed up with Cedric's corpse...injured...or when he fell from his broom the year before last against Hufflepuff...
Everyone around watched him and if he wasn't acting, he would have laughed. The sadness in his eyes as Ron pulled Harry away shocked Crabbe and Goyle. "Harry I..I just wanted to," he blushed but went on. "Can a guy care for once...I just don't like you getting hurt..."
Ron stood in front of Harry, "Never cared before. Always trying to get him in trouble. Laughing when he was hurt. Taking bets how long he'd last in the tournament two years ago. The Potter Stinks buttons…"
Harry put a hand on Ron's shoulder, "That's enough, we know he isn't always as bad as we've suspected." meaning that Draco had not been the heir to Slytherin.
Hermione stammered, "You don't care about anything but yourself, Pure bloods being better then anyone and the disappearance of my kind, Mudbloods."
Crabbe stepped forward but Malfoy spoke up, "You're right. I've been the biggest pain since we first met and I'm...I'm sorry," he looked at Harry, his gray eyes showing remorse, "Even if I wanted to change now...I don't deserve your friendship," he smiled sadly at Hermione, "I guess I didn't want to admit how amazingly talented you are...or how funny a person you are," he told Ron..., "and I couldn't admit how much I really like you, Harry Potter..."
Harry stared, how much of this was acting? He glared, "Are you making fun of us? We don't have time for this." he bit his lip, "Didn't...I already answer your request to be your friend years ago? Of course 'Mione is brightest witch of her age and Ron is funny but George and Fred were funnier.
Malfoy gave a sad chuckled, "I guess...I guess I'm too late," he nodded tears welling up in his eyes, "I'm sorry..." with that he turns, leaving his friends stunned and confused as he almost runs out of the castle.
Harry stared after him, maybe he'd gone too far. He sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose, "I've lost my appetite. I think I'll go up to the tower." He moved to a dark corner, tugged on his cloak and took off after Dray, he had make sure his boyfriend didn't think he meant the cruel things he'd said. He hated to see Draco crying...dodging students wearing an invisibility cloak was difficult. He couldn't be see going after Malfoy though….not yet anyway.
Draco made it out to the edge of the lake and sat down. Almost the same place Harry found him that day. He wiped away his tears and thought about what the others told him. It was pretty sad.
Harry reached the outside of the castle and started looking for Draco. Had his boyfriend's friends found him first?
Malfoy turned around to see Crabbe and Goyle looking on unsure of what they should do. "Leave me..." he whispered loud enough for them to here and once he was alone, he laid back on the grass,
Harry waited until the goons had left, he called out softly, "Dray..." still hiding in his cloak, Draco could see beneath it somehow, he would find him.
Malfoy closed his eyes, "Shouldn't you be eating, " he asked at looked in the direction of his boyfriend, "or did I worry you again..."
Harry sighed, "I worried I might have said too much and actually hurt you. Besides, we can always yell for Dobby. I have an open period next anyway. Did I react properly..."
"Yeah, you did and I haven't been found out so I guess its okay...I know how you feel about me Harry, so it can't really hurt as much..."
Harry moved to lay beside his boyfriend, "I just wanted to be sure, you know I can't handle it well when you cry."
"But, I'm not crying," he said pointing to his eyes, "look all gone."
Harry smiled, "I can see that now. I just had to be sure."
Malfoy chuckled and, to everyone else, kissed the air. "You're so cute when you care."
Harry draped an arm over Draco's chest, kissing him back, "Well I did mean it…you aren't evil…"
Malfoy wrapped his arms around Harry, "With our weeks of confessions and love making I'd say I never was truly evil at all.
Harry blushed beneath the cloak, letting Draco pull him closer, "So...when should we have another public performance..."
Malfoy snuggled, "I don't know yet, we'll come up with something…" meaning as the Slytherin, he was the designated plotter.
What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
A/N: Thanks to thrnbrooke and Diana for reviewing!
thrnbrooke - As for coming out to persons sooner or later Ron and Hermione will have to be told. Those as one might imagine it wouldn't go well considering the history the two have with Malfoy. Especially since they are dating. Hermione sees Harry a bit like a brother which explains her attempts to mother him. Considering that Ron owes Harry a Life debt for saving him from poisoning, [that can be traced back to Draco but Ron doesn't need to know that] he can't really turn his back on Harry. Hermione would probably break up with him and I'm sure the other Weasleys except for perhaps Ginny or Percy would be angry with him. If Harry and Draco are serious about staying together since Mrs. Weasley called him son she will have to be told eventually [Chapter 20]. Remus as well but that's far in the future [Hasn't been written yet]. Given the divided loyalties in Slytherin I doubt many could be told safely. Being Heads of House in time McGonagall and Snape will be told. Snape won't like it but won't have much say in the matter.
Dobby respects Harry because he got him free. He even agreed to shy on Draco despite being a former Malfoy elf. He even stood up to Kreacher who is insufferable and will be making his debut in the story around chapter 21.
