Chapter II: Way too Fast

At half past 11, Harry was already all set for his 'date'. He spent the morning picking up the best outfit to wear and taming his unruly hair. He brushed his hair several times but it was to no avail since even look messier.

'If only I could ask Hermione about my hair, I bet she can do something about this.' But it occurred to him that Hermione is still upset with him due to the dungeon incident. He sprayed some perfume and with one last glance at his reflection, he left his dormitory.

Draco wasn't able to sleep that night thinking of what might actually take place in the morning. He was standing in front of his vanity mirror when he suddenly had a mental picture of Harry. He imagined Harry, waiting for him at the foot of the stairs in the front hall, all sexy and grinning as he saw him. He would give him a chaste kiss on the lips before he will hold his hands. Together they will go to Hogsmeade like lovers.

"Hey Draco, dreaming about your green-eyed soon to be lover"

Draco was brought back to reality and threw his brush towards Zambini whom he didn't miss and was hit on the head.

"Shut it Blaise, somebody might hear you. Oh by the way, do I look good? Or maybe I should change?"

Blaise approached his bestfriend and eyed him from head to foot. "OK"

"What? Is that all you can say.. OK?"

"Of course Draco, you don't have to ask. You look ravishing! So if I were you, I'll better leave now so that Potter boy won't have to wait longer." Blaise said while pushing his friend towards the door of their dormitory.

"Wait a sec, you said longer? Meaning he is already there?" Draco asked.

Blaise nodded and before he could speak, Draco rushed to their meeting place.

In the front doorl.

Harry was pacing back and forth. He was anxious whether Draco would show up. 'What if Draco will not show up'?' he thought, then sadness washes over him. Just then, a panting blonde stood right in front of him with a smirk on his face.

"Afraid that I won't come?" Draco whispered close to Harry's ear which make the latter shiver.

He mustered not to look guilty but a faint blush on his cheeks which Draco noticed failed him. Embarrassed, Harry walked away from Draco and towards the oak doors when a hand grabbed him by the arm and pulled him. The next thing he knew is that a pair of soft lips was on his lips and a wet tongue was seeking entrance to devour his mouth. Harry was hesitant at first, although his minds knew that this was too fast, his raging hormones made him to give in. He parted his lips and accepted what the other has to give. Their heated snogging lasted for minutes, both boys are having a hard on. Draco, laced his arms on Harry's neck while Harry wrapped his strong arms around Draco's small waist which elicited a sudden twitch on Draco's pants. Upon feeling a hard protrusion pushing on his thigh, he removed his arm from Draco's waist and started to travel southwards to the band of the other boy's trouser. As he was about to reach his desired destination, they suddenly heard footsteps moving towards them. They abruptly detach themselves from each other and smoothen the creases on their clothes while trying their best to mask the swell in the middle of their thighs.

Hermione and Ginny appeared from the corner. Ginny greeted Harry and gave him a questioning look when she noticed that Malfoy was just a few feet away from Harry.

She was about to ask Harry why we was with Malfoy, but Hermione dragged her out of the castle, leaving Harry dumbfounded. 'Hermione is really angry with him.' He thought.

Harry immediately dismissed the idea and looked at Draco, as if asking him if they he's ready to leave. As if understanding what Harry meant, Draco nodded in reply.

They passed by a group of first year Gryffindor students who were stunned to see Harry with Draco a little behind him. Draco walked with his held up high not bothering to look at the students looking at them, on the contrary, Harry was flustered as they were walking towards the oak doors due to the gawking faces of the people around them. Rumors about him being gay has spread around Hogwarts but he's not yet that ready to come up into open about his sexual preferences, while Draco had come out in to open a year ago after the final battle. He was not ashamed of Draco, but he is not yet sure whether he wants the public to see that he was really indeed a gay. He's been popular since birth and confirming that his gay would only make him more popular which he does not intend to happen.

At Hogsmeade.

Draco walked a little behind Harry so that he could memorize ever inch of Harry's back. He remembered how held him earlier that day. How he savaged his mouth and the way he pressed his body closer to him.

'Did it really happen; did Harry really kiss me earlier? But why is he walking so fast? Oh my, is he having regrets on what we did?' questions flooded Draco's mind and the same thing was going through Harry's head. 'I shouldn't have kissed him. What should I do next? But... that kiss was bloody great!' Harry thought.

"So, uhmmm Draco, where do you wanna go?" Harry said looking at Draco.

" hmmm how about a cup of coffee somewhere, it's kinda cold" Draco replied.

Harry waited for Draco who was a few steps behind him and holds his hand. Draco, can't contain his happiness as Harry's hand touched with his. Soon, he felt warm.

They entered a coffee shop and sat farthest from the door. Harry sat beside Draco and ordered to cups of cappuccino. Harry let go of Draco's hand only to put his arms across Draco's back. Draco stiffened at the feel of Harry's arms.

Their coffee arrived. Harry continued staring at Draco, thinking of what he should say. The feel of having Draco beside him. Being able to touch him makes Harry forget all the harsh things they've done to each other in the past. He wanted stay like this. He wanted this.

"Hmmm, Draco, about earlier. I just wanna ask maybe if you want go out with me on a regular basis. I know I'm not good with words but, I don't know really how to say it Dray. I want it to be like this always, but I'm not yet sure if I can let my 'identity' to be known to all. I.. I think I kinda like you.." Harry continued staring at Draco after saying these words.

Draco was astounded with what Harry had just said. Instead of answering him back, he gently placed a chaste kiss on Harry's lips and starred back at him with a grin on his delicate lips.
