Disclaimer: Jokes and rhetorics aside, these people aren't mine. but they
will be when I take over the world!!
Warning: I am obliged to inform you all that this story is slash, because even though everyone insists they have no problem with homosexuality, authors still need to clearly label the characters' sexual orientation: but only if they're gay. Never have I seen something to this effect. 'Warning! This story does not contain slash. If you find heterosexual relationships offensive, do not read this story.' So much for our 'unprejudiced', 'equal' society, but when did that ever really exist. Now that that's done, on with the story. I hope everyone enjoys it.

A short pseudo-J.K. Rowling introduction to the story and we're in. In version 5.1 we are reintroduced to our poor, angsting hero who is bored after his defeat of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. Alternatively, version 4.1 involves a still kicking antagonist who will ultimately be defeated by Harry-at the end of the school year, with help from an 'unexpected' source (unexpected by the characters, that is, and by the select few readers who are new to fan fiction).
Now that one of our protagonists has been established, the scene is set for a new (in version 5.1) nemesis in the body of disagreeing/shocked friends and jealous others as we find out that our Boy-Who-Lived is gay, and lusting over the oh-so-hot-and-totally-shaggable Dra-Malfoy, who could never-ever requite poor Harry's feelings. Harry will have either accepted his sexuality, or is trying his best to deny it-something which will ultimately fail. And those flashes of Dra-Malfoy (Malfoy, not Draco, why does Harry keep calling him Draco in his head? I have a feeling this may be foreshadowing a Freudian slip on Harry's behalf) in Harry's head just keep on coming. We'll leave him now to angst about his secret crush.
Change of P.O.V. (remember the dots people, don't forget the author who misplaced them and readers thought the message was 'Ron is pov', not 'Ron's point of view') to said crush, who conveniently chooses this moment to reflect on his forbidden, seemingly unreturned love (but we readers know better). We are hit with another bomb shell (but can't honestly say we didn't see it coming) when the dashing Draco admits he isn't actually evil, he was just a bad bad boy so as to keep the beatings from a wicked parent to a minimum. In version 5.1 this wicked parent (if not now dead or captured) is in prime position to take up Voldie's job and become the primary bane of the young boys' future fragile fledgling relationship. Draco's other parent will be more sympathetic to his plight, but unable to interfere as a result of the fear instilled in them by their significant other.
Now our minds traverse back to our ill-fated leading man, who is being either sadly ignored, (although he insists he prefers it that way) or is being beaten severely by his uncle. This has been the pattern of behaviour for the duration of Harry's stay with the dastardly Dursleys, despite the evidence to the contrary in the books (you know the ones I'm talking about- J.K.'s, whom many people insist if they were her they wouldn't be wasting their time writing their own scenarios in everyone's favourite world. Hmm. does anyone else see what's wrong with this claim? I was under the impression that being J.K. involved doing exactly that. silly me).
Perhaps all this harassment simply slipped his mind. Either way, Vernon's vying for top spot in the 'We're Going To Kill Harry Potter 'Coz We Just Don't Like Him' club won't go very far due to his Muggle-ness, which provides limited access into the wonderful land of Harry Potter.
***
As Harry drifts off to the lands of sleep we eagerly await his impeding return to happy Hogwarts and the confrontation with his secret love Draco. Will the two overcome all obstacles to get together? How long before Harry's secret is uncovered? What about Cho? (who cares) How many more rhetoric questions can you put up with? These questions, and many more may or may not be answered in the next chapter. You'll just have to wait and see.
***
And now we come to the part where I, the author, demand reviews in order for me to continue writing this story, despite my claim that I'm writing for my own pleasure and therefore do not care what anyone else thinks of this story. Look forward to the next chapter in which I will graciously thank the people who reviewed (if any) not only to make the chapter look bigger in terms of word count, but also to show off that people took time
out of their busy lives to comment on my humble piece of work. Oh, and don't forget the ridiculing in store if you say something mean. Because
constructive criticism hurts my feelings.
