Chapter 1
When Green Met Gray
Harry Potter, a 16-year-old raven-haired boy ran down the stairs of his 2-story house and into the living room where his parents and his sister waited for him. Harry was a painter, a musician. He wrote songs and played them either on his piano or his guitar. He had the brightest and liveliest Emerald Green eyes that only his Mother possessed. His sister had warm brown eyes like their Father and she had fiery red hair like their mother. Harry was 5'10 with a lithe body, full ruby red lips, soft skin and a smile that would bright up the darkest of alleys. It was also a well-known fact that he was gay, much to the Teenage girls' disappointment.
Lily Potter watched as her son walked into the room, a smile on his face as he started to check over their belongings that had been packed and on their way inside the moving van. She felt a pang of sadness as she remembered why they were moving. Why her son was happy at the thought of leaving the place he grew up in because he was scared of what might happen if he stayed.
"Mom! We have to follow the van there, and they are ready to leave!" Harry said in mock anger. Lily rolled her eyes at her son while his sister laughed and went over to her brother.
Hailey Potter loved her brother more then anything. They were only a year apart and they acted like twins. They did everything together, they had the same friends, they even "Guy Shopped" together. She got along with Harry simply because he was Harry. He was a person that would attract attention without meaning to, or noticing it. Hailey also felt sorry for what her brother had to go through. During that time when everything was bad, Hailey had been frightened.
When Harry had not come back from the Ski Weekend Trip with his friends she had been frantic. She didn't go because she had the flu and she had to stay in bed. Harry was going to stay home with her but she had made him go, and when he didn't come back, she blamed herself. She hated herself for letting him go. She had cried for hours and hours on end, and when the phone call came and they found his body, she had practically rushed out of the house just to get to her brother. She thanked god everyday for letting her brother live. Without him, there would be no her. Her sanity would be gone, because she loved her brother too much to lose him.
"Hailey! Harry! Come on!" James Potter's voice called from outside. The two teens smiled at each other and left the house, looking at it one more time before they got inside the car and drove off on their 5-hour journey to their new home, in a new town, in a new place, where they could start everything over.
******************************************************
He didn't think he knew. Ha! What a joke. Of course he knew, why wouldn't he know? The Green Eyed God belonged to him, and he made it his business to know everywhere that Harry went. He did everything to make sure that his location stayed under wraps. No way in hell would he blow this. He had heard that the Potters were moving. He knew that he had to find out where they were going, and obtaining that information had almost been too hard for him. But he found it anyway, he knew about James and Lily's new jobs, he knew where Harry and Hailey were going to go to school, he knew about it all. And there was no way that he was letting Harry escape him again. No way in hell.
******************************************************
"Hailey! Get up, we're at the rest point." Harry said nudging his sister's head off of his shoulder. She groaned and opened her eyes. She looked up at her brother and gave a small smile.
"Where are we?" she asked sleepily.
"Dad begged Mom to let them have a rest point, so she did. We're at a gas station. It has a restaurant, we can eat and then we have 3 more hours of this bloody car ride." Harry said moving a little and opening the car door. He helped his sister out and they walked into the restaurant. They spotted their parents and sat opposite them, looking over the menus and ordering their food.
"Harry, how's that painting going?" James asked his son as they waited for the food to arrive.
"Fine Dad. But it's only half way finished. I just have to do the finishing touches on it and it should be finished." Harry replied, thinking over his current project.
He was painting a picture of Bailand Beach at sunset. Harry had been at the beach at the time, and had been so entrapped by the beauty, that he went straight home and started to paint it. It had been almost a month and he was almost finished with it.
The waitress came over with their food and they started to eat, laughing about things from their past and about what their new house might look like.
Lily was a fashion designer for movie stars and singers. She also owned her own Corporation called "Lily's Extremes". She was well known, and worked on everyone that was famous and everyone that wasn't. James worked at a marketing business. He was made partner, and when he decided to move they moved the whole building to their new location. Everyone was happy about the move, wanting to leave their old lives behind and start new ones. James was also well known, and working his way to owning the whole company.
So all in all, the Potter family was rich and famous. Harry sells some of his paintings to galleries and some are even auctioned off. He was a talented teenager, and everyone had at least heard about him. Hailey was a computer tech. She'd see a computer and know how to repair it, and make it better then it was before. She was intelligent, but also knew how to keep a social life. She was top cheerleader at their old school, and when she got to the new school she planned on trying out for the team.
When they were finished eating they left the restaurant and started to pile up in their car. James had gotten the tank filled and they were about to face a 3-hour ride.
"I'll be right back. I think I dropped my lighter in the bathroom." Harry replied, jogging off. He walked back into the restaurant and went into the bathroom. He picked up his lighter off the sink and turned to leave when he bumped into someone that had a hood on that was covering the face.
"Sorry." Harry said as he moved pass the guy. Something about him gave him the creeps, and there was no way he was going to stay longer then he had to. He went after his family and got in the car.
******************************************************
He looked so beautiful standing there. Thank god I remembered to wear the hood. I wouldn't want him to notice me before I perfectly found a way to get him to forgive me. And if he doesn't do it willingly, well then I'll just have to persuade him. Don't worry Harry, I'm coming for you.
******************************************************
"We're here!" Hailey heard her Father yell. She looked up groggily and saw a beautiful white and pale blue 2-story house. She sat up quickly and shook her brother awake. He looked up at her and she pointed out the window. He looked and sat up as well.
"The house is beautiful!" Hailey exclaimed. Harry nodded his head and got out of the car, Hailey right behind him.
"Well if you think that is beautiful wait till you see the pool!" Lily called.
"POOL?!!" Harry and Hailey exclaimed. They ran after their mother and when they reached the backyard of the house they saw a big pool and glass windows for the patio door. They saw lounge chairs lined up against the wall and they smiled at each other.
"After we finish packing can we please take a swim?" Hailey asked. Harry nodded his head in agreement and Lily had to quickly say yes. They always got her when they used their puppy dog eyes.
"Sure. I might join you." Lily said going through the sliding glass doors and entering the kitchen. Hailey went to follow her and Harry went to the front of the house where his father was.
"Hey Dad, you need any help?" He asked. The moving people had just got all of their stuff in the houses where they had told them where to put it and James was now struggling with the last remaining boxes.
"Yeah. Get your sister's box and I'll get your Mother's. Do they know how heavy their make up boxes are?" James grumbled. Harry laughed and walked over to his sister's box when he saw a girl with frizzy hair, and a red head walking over.
"Hi! Welcome to the neighborhood." The frizzy haired girl said with a smile. "My name is Hermione, and this is my boyfriend Ron."
Harry smiled at them. "My name's Harry Potter, nice to meet you."
Hermione's eyes grew wide and she got a big smile on her face. "Harry Potter? The artist?" she asked. Harry nodded his head and she threw herself into his arms, hugging him.
"My Father bought one of your paintings. I have to say that you are very talented." Hermione said with a smile on her face. Harry could tell that Ron was getting jealous so he laughed and turned to Ron.
"There's no need for you to be jealous. I'm gay." Ron looked at him and relief washed over his features. Harry laughed and Hermione turned red.
"There's nothing wrong with being gay. Half of our school is gay." Ron said.
"Harry!!! MY MAKE UP WILL MELT OUT THERE!!" Hailey's shrill scream called. She rushed out of the house and glared at her brother.
"Get my stuff off the floor! If you ruined my make up I swear you're going to buy me a whole new stock!"
"Hailey, I'm coming. As you can see, I was making friends." Harry said in an innocent voice.
Hailey looked over at the other two people and smiled. "Oh hello. I'm Hailey Potter, this dunderhead's sister." Harry rolled his eyes and looked at Hermione and Ron. He waited for them to finish introducing themselves and then he smiled at them.
"Why don't you guys come up inside while I help I get her make up crap in the house."
"Crap! You're lucky that that is only half of my make up."
"HALF!" Ron and Harry echoed. Ron looked over at the box again and shook his head. "She's almost as worse as Hermione. Lord!" He muttered. Harry picked up the box and swayed a little before he regained his balance and walked into the house with the box. Hailey, Hermione, and Ron followed him in the house and they walked upstairs till Harry got to Hailey's room. He dropped the box in the corner and glared at her.
"Next time, get your own make up." He said. She rolled her eyes and punched his shoulder.
"Whatever. I might have to buy more if I get on the Cheerleading Squad."
"You want to become a cheerleader? I'm Captain, and we are holding tryouts. Our Co Captain broke her leg in a car accident. How about you show me your routines and I'll see what I can do." Hailey beamed at the news and her and Hermione left the room and went downstairs to the living room.
"Oh no! I can see a lot of pompoms and short skirts with hairspray in our future." Ron groaned. Harry laughed and they went into his room and talked about a few things. They got to know each other, and laughed about some things. Ron told Harry about his siblings and Harry told him how it was like to live with Hailey. Soon it was going on 6:00 and they all said goodbye to each other.
"Remember, I'm going to pick you guys up tomorrow and ride you over to the school." Hermione said. Hailey smiled and hugged Hermione goodbye and then they left.
"I see you and Hermione are getting along well. Oh my god! I can see it now, sleepovers and dress up contests!" Harry said in mock horror. Hailey laughed and slapped her brother upside the head playfully.
"You know you would want to get in on the action. Speaking of which, you have got to help me get a boyfriend! I need to be the most hottest girl in school, and in order to do that, I have to have the hottest guy."
"Good luck with that. How do you know that that guy won't be interested in your brother?" Harry joked.
"We'll see. Come on, lets go see what Mom and Dad are doing. Hopefully they aren't making out or I swear I'm going to puke!"
******************************************************
At 7:30 in the mourning, Harry rolled out of bed(literally), and fell to the floor. He groaned and stood up glaring at his alarm clock. He shut it off and walked sleepily to the bathroom. Hailey's door was open and she was at her mirror putting on make up and lipstick.
"I swear you wake up too early for that shit." Harry replied sleepily with a yawn.
"Get your ass in the shower and hurry. Hermione will be picking us up at 8:15, so hurry up!"
"Unlike you it doesn't take me 2 hours to get ready for school." Harry grumbled. He walked into the bathroom and got into the shower.
After his shower and walked out the bathroom in his towel and went to his room to get dressed. He put on black pants and a tight shirt, he snapped a chain on the loops of his pants as he slipped his feet in his black sneakers. He pulled on his jacket, grabbed his book bag and left his room. He grabbed a bowl of cereal and started to eat while he listened to his sister and his mother talk about the news skirts that were in a catalog.
James came downstairs in his suit and sat down with a cup of coffee. "Dad, you really need to stop drinking that crap. It sucks!" Harry said as he eyes the cup distastefully.
"When you get older Harry, it will be your Life Line." James said with a lopsided smirk as he took a long sip of his coffee.
"I have to agree with Harry, Dad. That stuff does not look healthy!" Hailey complained.
"Well we won't be back till around 6. I want you and your sister to make sure you don't mess up the house, and I put money in your book bags last night. Don't spend it all in one day please!" Lily said as she stood up and grabbed her briefcase.
"We won't!" Harry and Hailey replied in unison. A car horn honked outside and they jumped out their seats and went to the door.
"Bye!" They called to their parents and left. They jumped inside the car and said hi to Hermione.
"We're picking up Lavender, a friend of mine, and then we'll be going to school. Ron is riding in his family's jeep today so it's just us." Hermione replied as she pulled from their house in the red Mercedes. Hailey and Hermione started to talk about "girly things" and Harry looked out the window, wondering what to expect at his new school. They pulled up to a house 3-story house and a girl with Blonde hair ran out to meet them.
"Hi!" she said sliding in the backseat next to Harry.
"Hey. I'm guessing that you're Lavender." Harry said with a smile. She smiled back and nodded her head. She started to flirt with him, asking him about what he liked to do and if he was going to try out for any of the school teams. Hailey found it funny, but Hermione found it annoying.
"Lavender, he's gay. You're wasting your time." Hermione called. Lavender groaned and shook her head.
"It's always the hot ones that decide they like guys better. Oh well, I might be able to turn him out." Lavender said with a sly smile to Harry. Harry raised an eyebrow but decided not to talk.
They arrived some minutes later, to a tall school. There was a football field behind it and the front of it was filled with students. Harry looked around the school grounds and nodded his head in approval.
"Look, there's Ron with everyone else." Hermione said. They walked over to the group of redheads and some other people. They all introduced themselves.
There was Ginny, who flirted with Harry, there was George and Fred the twins who had a weird sense of humor and a knack for pranking people. Then there was Neville, a shy boy who kept glancing over at Hailey. There was Dean, a funny outgoing boy, Seamus who was hyper and liked to laugh and bounce around. When Hailey asked why he was s acting like he was high Lavender whispered "He's Irish and likes to have too much fun." Then there was Parvati and Padma, another set of twins.
Hailey got annoyed at the girls that were throwing themselves at her brother so she told them straight up that he was gay. The girls groaned and murmured something about "Always the hot ones". Which caused the guys to burst out laughing.
After they were all introduced, Hailey and Harry was showed to the Principal's office where they met the slightly eccentric Principal, Albus Dumbledore, who had a weird obsession with candy and sweets. After they got their schedules they left the office and headed for their lockers, which they were lucky was placed next to their friends.
Their schedule matched Hermione's and Ron's so they had every class together, much to their relief. First period was Chemistry with Professor Snape. Harry hated Chemistry, but said nothing about it.
They walked into the classroom and sat in the back, Ron and Hermione in front of them. Their teacher strolled into the room, and faced his classroom.
"Today we will be doing notes writing notes…." Harry blocked out his teacher. He didn't want to, but he was boring the hell out of him. He was messing around with his pen when the doors to the classroom opened and a tall blonde haired boy walked in the class.
Harry looked over and his breath caught in his throat. This boy was gorgeous. He had platinum blonde hair, pale skin that made him glow, and he was about 6'3. He had a nice built body that made Harry want to throw him up against a wall and ravish him. He couldn't tell what color the boy's eyes were and he was about to give up when the blonde looked over at him. Silver gray eyes met Emeralds and Harry was lost in those beautiful gray eyes. Not knowing that the other boy was facing the same dilemma.
Hailey watched the exchange between her brother and the blond haired boy and saw the tension between them. She smirked as she saw them locked in a gaze. The other students and the teacher seemed to not have noticed, but Ron and Hermione did.
"Mr. Malfoy! Is there a reason why you are late?" Professor Snape questioned.
Harry and the blonde blinked and turned away from each other. Harry started to doodle on his blank paper, while stealing small glances towards the boy.
"Sorry Professor, but I got caught up." He said. Professor Snape nodded his head and got back to the lesson.
Professor Snape nodded his head and started to get back to the lesson. The blonde haired boy sat down next to a blonde haired blue eyes girl. Harry watched as the boy took out his notebook. He watched as he started to copy his notes from the board. His hands were what caught Harry's attention, the elegant way that they moved.
"Mr. Potter! Is there a reason why you are not paying attention?" Harry heard the Professor call out to him. Every eye in the room turned to look at him and he cursed himself for not paying attention.
"No sir." Harry replied.
"Then why are you not copying from the board?" Harry didn't know what to say so he just sat there. Hailey came to his rescue.
"Sir, Harry is copying his notes." She had been copying the notes from the board for Harry cause she knew he wasn't going to do it. She slipped it on his desk and he looked down and smiled at her graciously.
"Well thank you for clearing that up Ms. Potter. Maybe next time you should let your brother talk for himself." And with that he continued to drone on and on about the concoction.
Harry looked up and saw the blonde haired boy staring at him. He gave a small smile and the boy nodded his head and turned around. Harry groaned and dropped his head t the table, wishing for this period to end.
Finally it was time for lunch and Harry sat down next to his sister. He was annoyed that he didn't see the blonde haired boy in none of his other classes. That pissed him off. He had learned from Hermione that his name was Draco Malfoy, and he was the son of a wealthy businessman. The Malfoy family lived in a big mansion and it was known that one day Draco would own half of it.
As Harry dug into his cheeseburger and fries, his friends sat down at the table and started to talk about things he didn't care about. Right now all he wanted to know was about the Draco, the blonde haired gray-eyed beauty.
******************************************************
Draco Malfoy watched the raven-haired boy lean over and talk to his sister. He had been trying to see the boy all day, and now he saw him. He had to admit that the Green eyes boy was gorgeous beyond belief. Draco had of course heard of him. His father was always talking about the young artist that was talented. He had a few of his paintings in the many rooms of the mansion, and Draco had to agree that the boy was talented. His father had told him that the Potters were moving over here, and Draco couldn't wait until he was to meet the boy that had painted so beautifully.
"Draco, what the hell are you staring at?" Millicent called. He looked over at her and inclined his head in the direction of Harry.
"Him. He's hotter then I thought he would be." Draco said. Millicent nodded her head in agreement and then she frowned.
"Too bad that he's hanging with the Weasley's and those other drips. The only good one over there is him, his sister and the Granger girl." Millicent replied.
"Hey guys!" Blaise said as he sat down next to his friends. "Did you see the Potters? They are both hot!" Blaise replied. Blaise was bisexual, and he was always bouncing back and forth from the two sexes.
"Yeah, but back off of Harry. I stake my claim over him." Draco said with a raise of his eyebrow.
"Already? Damn Draco. Leave some of the good ones for other people."
"No thank you Blaise. In fact, I think it's time that me and him were properly introduced." Draco replied, standing up and walking over to the group. Blaise followed him, wanting to get a closer look at the Potter siblings.
Harry looked up and saw Draco walking over. His breath caught in his throat and he licked his lips. "Harry. Stop drooling, keep your cool, and don't say anything stupid." Hailey whispered in his ear. Harry nodded his head and tried to calm down.
"Hello. I'm Draco Malfoy, and this is Blaise Zabini. And you are…" Draco trailed off, not wanting Harry to know that he knew all about him.
Harry licked his lips and looked met the swirls of silver gray eyes. "I'm Harry Potter, and this is my sister Hailey." Harry said. Hailey smiled up at them and Blaise let his eyes wander down her body.
"What the hell do you want Malfoy?" Dean asked, glaring at the blonde.
"I came over here to welcome the new students. Why do you care?" Draco asked annoyed.
"Maybe because you are a stuck up bastard that thinks he controls everything." Dean said.
Draco glared at him and raised an eyebrow. "Oh really? Or are you just jealous?"
Dean growled and launched himself at the blonde but Harry was up on his feet and held both boys apart.
"Cut it out. Both of you! I don't care what problems you may have with each other, just don't start fights in front of me. You both are acting like a bunch of children!" Harry shook his head and turned away, grabbing his book bag and leaving the Cafeteria.
Draco glared at Dean and turned on his heel to walk away. Hailey grabbed her stuff and went after her brother.
"I was so close!" Draco murmured, anger radiating from his voice.
"Don't worry about it. I'm sure that everything will be fine. I think he likes you." Blaise replied.
"Maybe. But I have to put my award winning skills to the test. It's time to really bring out the charm."
******************************************************
After lunch was Art. Harry arrived early, because of what happened in the lunchroom. Harry was happy about this class; Art was his talent, and his hobby. He loved Art and couldn't wait for the class to start. He walked in to the classroom, and saw a familiar person working on a picture.
"Sirius?" Harry asked. Sirius turned around and smiled at Harry.
"Harry!!" He hugged the teenage boy and kissed his forehead. "How are you kiddo?"
"Fine. I didn't know you worked here!" Harry said looking over his Godfather.
"Yeah it was a surprise. I told your father not to mention it, and I see he didn't."
"Yeah he didn't. So how are Remus and Peter?" Harry asked.
"They ok. Remus and me are fine, he finally asked me to move in with him! And Peter, he's dating some girl. I saw her and I swear she's a real bitch! I don't see how Peter deals with her."
"Really? That's good about you and Remus. Do I hear wedding bells?" Harry laughed. Sirius rolled his eyes at his Godson.
"What about you? Any guy caught your eyes yet?"
"Yes. His name is Draco Malfoy, and he is gorgeous. He spoke to me today and introduced himself, and it all would have went fine if Dean and him didn't get into an argument."
"Draco Malfoy? The son of Lucius Malfoy? His father is one ruthless piece of work. But if you like his son, I'll help you. I was thinking on doing some group projects in this class anyway." Sirius said with a mischievous smile on his face.
"He's in this class?" Harry asked wide-eyed. Sirius nodded his head and Harry smiled.
The bell rung at that moment and students piled into the classroom. Harry looked over at his Godfather and raised an eyebrow.
"Where am I going to sit?" Harry asked.
"Well let's see, I want you to sit…. there." He said pointing to a seat next to the window. Harry sat down and watched as more kids came into the class. Then Draco walked in. He was going to walk to a seat at the far side of the room, when he caught sight of Harry. He detoured and sat in an empty seat next to him.
"Fancy meeting you here." Draco said with a smile. Harry looked up at nodded his head.
"Today I want you to paint something. Anything! No not a person, but anything else. An object, a place that you visited, anything. You have till the end of class to finish it." Sirius said.
Harry started to get his equipment and he thought of what to paint. He looked out the window and saw the trees in the distance that was in the direct ray of the sunlight. Harry looked watched how he could manipulate the scene, and got to work. He started to paint the trees, and then he played upon the sunlight, using colors that would make it seem surreal and breathtaking. He didn't notice that Draco was watching him; all he paid attention to was his easel. 10 minutes before the bell was going to ring, Harry was finished with his painting.
He surveyed it and smiled, happy with his work. "That's beautiful." Draco replied. Harry looked over and saw Draco looking at the picture.
Sirius came over and gasped slightly at the painting. "Class, I want you to see something that should inspire you." He picked up the painting and held it in front of the class. "Mr. Potter, do I have permission to hang this in the classroom?" Sirius asked.
Harry nodded his head and his Godfather hung it on the wall near the window. The bell rung and everyone started to pout their stuff away. When Harry looked up Draco was waiting for him.
"What class do you have next?" He asked. Harry looked at his schedule and smiled.
"I have music. I happen to love Music, not as much as painting, but still." Harry said as he looked over at Draco who was smirking at him.
"Interesting. I have that class too. I usually ditch it, but since you're going, I might as well see if you are as good in Music as you are in Art." Draco replied.
"Why do you ditch?" Harry asked.
"Because I found that the class is painful to my ears. No one in there can play, and I would rather not torture my eardrums."
Harry laughed at Draco's statement. "Well think about it this way, once your eardrums burst, you won't have to hear the dreadful music anymore."
Draco snorted and looked over at Harry. "I heard your sister is going to try out for the Cheerleading Squad today."
"Yeah. I cannot deal with her chatter about the Squad. It's annoying; all she does is talk about the girls on the team. I'm gay, why the hell would I care about chicks?" Harry said. Draco laughed and nodded his head.
"I totally agree. So you're gay, so am I." Draco replied, hoping that his statement didn't sound too stupid. Harry just smiled up at him and nodded his head.
Draco was relieved, now he didn't have to worry about weather or not Harry was gay. Everything was slowly working for him. They reached the Music class, and sat together, not listening to Professor Sprout.
"So what are you doing after school?" Harry asked.
"Basketball Practice. We'll be in the same gym with your sister and her cheerleaders." Draco replied.
"Oh. Yeah, she's making me come with her. She said that I could probably give them tips on what to do, I mean really!" Harry said rolling his eyes.
"Well at least she isn't asking for you to try out with her. Or worse, wear their uniforms."
Harry's mouth dropped open and a look of horror crossed his face. Draco laughed at the sight and Harry slapped his arm.
"Prick! If she asked me that I swear I'm running like a bat out of hell." Harry replied. He looked over and saw a blonde haired boy looking at him. He raised an eyebrow and turned his head.
"Draco, who's that guy?" Harry asked. Draco looked over to where Harry was looking at and frowned.
"Oh that guy. His name is Colin Creevey, he's a photographer and he's kind of creepy." He replied. Harry nodded his head and turned back to Draco.
"So I guess I'll see you at the gym right?" Harry asked.
Draco nodded. "Yeah and maybe after that me and you could go and hang out somewhere."
"I'd like that." Harry said. The bell rung and they both parted their ways.
