"You're late by the way." Draco said. "Yeah, I know. Its just that it's Hogsmeade weekend, and well, I really wanted to go."
Draco sighed. How he hated it when Ron got this way. It wasn't as if he was ashamed of liking the redhead it was just that if anyone where to find out, namely his father, well...he didn't even want to think of that.
"I'll make it up to you I promise! After all the summer holidays are coming up, and I can get away without father noticing, maybe we can go to a muggle mall or something."
"Really?" Ron asked with hope in his voice.
Draco laughed sultrily. "Of course love." he said kissing Ron's forehead. "Now. If you don't mind, I need to start on this essay." Draco turned from Ron and grabbed his quill and parchment.
"WHAT!!!" screamed Ron as if he had been hit in the face. "This is supposed to be OUR DAY, or did you forget that you promised it was supposed to be OUR DAY?!?!?!" Draco rolled his eyes and chuckled again.
"Oh Ron, if you only knew-"
"KNEW WHAT???? That today is apparently not OUR DAY?" Ron's arms where now flailing around. "Because, honestly I didn't." Ron was soon hushed and Draco ducked him behind the couch.
"Wait! Not there!" There was a turn of a lock and the portrait hole had been opened. "RON HIDE!!!!" Draco said while pushing him behind a curtain.
"Draco?" it was Blaise. "Who where you talking to?"
"Oh, no one. What are you doing here anyways?"
"I heard you where here, and thought that I might pay my little dragon a visit. Got a problem with that?"
"Well yeah, because first off I am not your 'little dragon'."
"Oh Draco, you are and always will be." Blaise had already advanced towards Draco giving him a dark, lustful look.
"Look Zabini, what happened in 4th year is over. That was three years ago and frankly...you make me want to vomit." Blaise was taken back but soon advanced again.
"Oh, poor poor Draco. Don't you see. You still love me!" they started to circle.
"Yes, because making someone vomit has always been the hallmark of 'I love you'" said Draco. They were practically nose to nose when Zabini reached to kiss Draco. Immediately there was a flash of red light. Blaise was struck down and stunned.
"WEASLEY!!!!!" screamed Draco. "Do you have any idea of what you just did?!" Ron's face was white and his wand still readied.
"Um, no."
"Well, you did something stupid! Now, help me erase his memory before someone gets in here. Honestly, we need a better spot to meet." Draco grabbed blaise's feet.
"What's the point in meeting if all you are going to do is write essays?" Draco sighed at Ron's remark. "What happened to our spark?"
"Ron, the essays help distract me."
"Distract you from what? The Easter Bunny?"
"From you, you idiot!!! From taking you!!!" Draco was practically out of breath now, and didn't quite understand as to why he had just revealed that to Ron. Ron looked so startled, Draco might have just stunned him.
"What would be so wrong with having me?"
"No, I wouldn't do that to you. You're too innocent, I don't want the Ron I know and care for to change on me."
"Innocent? Who ever said I was an innocent????"
"Have you ever been with anybody before?"
"Well yeah! Hermione and I got together when we were left at the burrow and were very, very bored."
"Have you ever been with a guy before Ron?" Silence
"Promise you'll keep it a secret?" Draco nodded. "Harry and I have hooked up before, we didn't have sex exactly, but he was really stressing out and needed the escape."
"Frankly Ron, I don't care to hear how he corrupted you into the homo you are today, but tell him I said thanks." Flirtatiously Draco grabbed Ron and walked out of the room.
"What about Blaise?" asked Ron
"What about him?" Ron shrugged his shoulders and walked with Draco.
"So, you don't want me?" asked Ron
"No!" said Draco defensively. "I never said I didn't want you. Believe me I- never mind."
"No, never mind what? Tell me!" Ron stopped and stared Draco in the eye.
"I'm a big boy. What is wrong?"
"I told you, I. DO. NOT. WANT. TO. RUIN. YOU." Draco steadily walked away from him.
"Wait!" Ron yelled, he began to follow him. Draco turned the corner and tried to escape Ron. He couldn't stand not having him, but couldn't bear to use Ron, even if it wasn't using, that's what it felt like. In an attempt to lose Ron, Draco turned into a room that he had never seen before, but it was too late, Ron had entered the room.
"Now listen to me I want to kn-" Ron paused "What is this room?"
"I think it's the room of requirement."
"In other words, our new meeting plac...sweet."
Draco turned to Ron , but before he could say anything, Ron was already bombarding him with his question.
"Why are you so afraid you'll ruin me?!?!?!? Don't you know that I love you, and that I want to be with you?"
"Ron, just please not right now, right now I want to enjoy this time together, with NO essay." Draco said leading him to a chair in the room. Draco sat in the chair and pulled Ron down with him. They sat there for almost an hour without saying a word to the other. Their hands entangled , Ron kissed every knuckle, fingernail, and metatarsal. Draco, with his free hand, was playing with Ron's red hair. Running his hands through it and twirling Ron's hair around his finger. They sat in solitude until Ron reached up and kissed Draco. Almost like a wave of passion and everything around the melted away
