I don't own Harry Potter. It belongs to the fabulous J. K. Rowling.
This is a birthday present for my friend Marksmom. Happy birthday and have a great day :D
Warnings: Angst, rejection, Mpreg, malexmale. But there is a happy ending.
Summary: When Draco turns Harry down after getting asked out he had no idea just what the consequences him saying 'no' would bring.
Thank you to Cathcer1984 for beat'ing it x
Harry had laid on his bed and listened to everything. Ron and Neville coming up to bed laughing and joking before he heard snores. Not long after Ron and Neville and Ron had fallen asleep the dormitory door opened and Harry sat still as he listened. "What do you mean he just walked out on you Draco?"
"Exactly what I said Blaise. He asked me out, I said no and he went to leave, I made to stop him but he threatened me so I..." Draco sighed. "I just watched him go."
"Draco..."
"I'm going to get undressed. I'll shower in the morning."
Harry had waited until it was all quiet before he got off his bed he went into the trunk at the bottom and pulled out his invisibility cloak and with a look at Draco's sleeping form, he threw it over him and left the dormitory.
He figured he might as well wander the corridors. He always used to love doing it before. It was always so quiet and peaceful. Just go where you wanted to go and have no-one stop you. He knew if he stayed in bed he would be either staring at his parents photo, missing them even more wishing they were there with him or he would be going over the second rejection he had received from Draco in a matter of months.
After walking through many corridors and up and downs stairs, Harry found himself in front of moaning Myrtle's bathroom. He hadn't been in there since he hurt Draco.
Taking a breath, Harry walked into the bathroom and removed his cloak. "Hello Harry."
Harry looked to his right and saw moaning Myrtle floating a few inches off the floor. "Myrtle."
"Would you like me to leave you alone?"
"No it's fine."
Myrtle cooed and smiled at Harry, slowly moving towards him. "I am glad. I don't get company. Last time I had it was when I would talk to that nice Slytherin Draco."
Harry gave a soft smile before looking sad.
"Are you alright Harry?"
"Not really."
"Want to talk about it?"
"I'm not sure."
"Harry. You know you can talk to me and not worry about it going any further. Who do I talk to?"
Harry smiled. "I guess you're right. Where to start."
"Beginning is always a good idea." Myrtle replied as she sat cross legged a few inches off the floor, listening as Harry poured his heart out, telling the ghost everything, things he didn't even tell Hermione, Ron, Draco or Remus.
Harry left after a couple of hours and went back to bed where he gave up on sleep after only getting a couple of hours sleep so headed to the great hall for breakfast. As soon as he sat down he knew it was too early for the house elf's to let the breakfast appear. "Kreacher."
Kreacher appeared with a 'pop' next to Harry. "Master Harry in wanting something?"
"Can I have a couple of slices of toast please?"
Kreacher bowed and disappeared, appearing again within minutes with a plate of toast. "Is master Harry wanting anything else?"
"No Kreacher you may go." Kreacher bowed and went with a 'pop'. Harry took a couple of bites of his toast and sighed, pushing his plate away, he didn't really feel hungry anymore.
Ron woke up and frowned when he saw Harry's bed empty and looked up when he saw Neville walk into the dormitory. "Nev how long have you been up?"
"About an hour. Why?"
"Have you seen Harry?"
Neville looked at Harry's unmade bed. "No. His bed was like that when I got up."
Ron went to the bottom of Harry's bed and looked through his trunk for the map. He had just spread it open on Harry's bed looking for him along with Neville when Draco walked out of the bathroom fully dressed.
Ron looked up. "Have you seen Harry? We don't know where he is. He was up before Neville and Neville is always the first one up but he left before Neville even woke up."
"Well where is he?"
"We don't know Malfoy that is why we are asking you."
"I haven't seen Harry since-" Draco broke off, Harry's face full of hurt flashing across his memory.
Ron narrowed his eyes and stood up. "Since when? What have you done to him Malfoy?"
"I haven't done anything to him."
"Your face and actions tell me different."
"I haven't seen him since he took me into a side classroom where he threatened me before leaving."
"Why did he threaten you?"
"That is between me and him Weasley."
"Not when your actions hurt Harry and make him disappear."
"You weren't even there how would you know if he was hurt or not?"
"Because he threatened you. I am warning you now ferret. If you have hurt Harry then I hurt you."
"Ron I found him he is in the great hall." Neville said before clearing the map.
Ron quickly got dressed and left Draco standing in the dormitory as Ron slammed the door behind him after giving Draco a glare.
Ron and Hermione walked into the great hall with Neville and the three saw Harry sat alone at the eighth year table. "Harry mate what are you doing down here on your own?"
"Having breakfast?"
"Are you alright?" Hermione asked as she sat down next to Ron, Neville sitting down facing Harry.
"Of course I am. Why do you ask?"
"Neville was the first up as always and you were nowhere to be seen. Him and Ron had to look at the map to find you."
"I woke up early and couldn't get back to sleep so I just came down for breakfast."
Ron cleared his throat and looked at Harry closely. "Harry? What went on between you and Draco last night?"
"Nothing." He lied.
"Harry mate something happened. He wouldn't say what and now neither are you."
"That is because nothing happened alright."
Draco came into the great hall and spotted Harry and quickly made his way over and sat beside him. "Harry I-"
Harry stood up. "See you guys later," he murmured looking at Ron, Hermione and Neville. Completely ignoring Draco who stood up when Harry started to walk away. "Harry don't walk away from me."
Harry stopped and turned, watching as Draco hurried over to him and spoke before the blond had a chance to. "I told you last night Malfoy. Leave. Me. Alone." he said through gritted teeth and left the great hall.
"Harry?" Harry sighed and stopped at the bottom of the steps and turned to face who had called him. "Professor Snape."
"Did you ask my godson last night?"
"I did."
"I'm sorry Harry. I don't know what's wrong with him."
"He is an arrogant prick who still seems to think he is better than anyone else." Harry snapped and walked away leaving Severus to walk into the great hall and shake his head at his godson when he said 'morning' and walked up to the teachers table and sat down to eat his breakfast.
Draco frowned as he watched Severus sit down. Why is he pissed at me? What am I supposed to have done now?
Over the course of the next week Harry kept up his routine of wandering Hogwarts at night before returning to his bed for a couple hours of restless sleep and then heading to the great hall, after casting a glamour, where he would sit and wait for his friends. He would leave though, if Draco tried to approach him.
Draco had learned why his godfather was angry with him, it was because he said no to Harry. He had tried to get Harry to listen to him over the past week but if Harry wouldn't let him talk then what could he do.
Draco was just coming out of the great hall as Harry came walking down the steps. He was on his own and Draco took this opportunity to talk to him. "Harry wait."
Harry looked up and saw Draco hurrying towards him so he turned and hurried back up the stairs. "Harry stop. You can't keep doing this." Harry ignored him so Draco picked up his feet and began to run in order to catch up with the Gryffindor. "Oh come on Harry this is stupid. All of this because I turned you down? You are supposed to eighteen not eight."
Harry looked at Draco closely who was about to say something else but Harry just sighed and dropped his shoulders in defeat. "Whatever Draco." he murmured as he walked away.
That was again that Draco had watched Harry walk away from him and he was starting to get sick of the sight of it.
As it moved towards the end of November Hermione and Ron had hurried to Remus' rooms wanting to talk to the professor about Harry as they were growing more and more concerned for Harry's wellbeing. "He doesn't even talk much anymore." Hermione said as she sat on Remus' sofa, Ron holding her close.
"I must admit Harry doesn't even answer back to my snide comments in class. He is slowly losing his spirit." Severus said, placing a comforting hand on Remus shoulder. "We need to do something and fast."
"But he seems fine though. He looks it he has just gone quiet."
"I think the only thing that is different with Harry apart from him cutting himself from us all is that he gets up earlier and has his breakfast earlier." Ron explained.
Remus straightened. "Wait a minute. Have either of you seen him eat?"
"No we haven't." Hermione said looking even more worried.
Meanwhile in another part of the castle stood Harry Potter in front of a mirror, naked from the waist up. He waved his wand and watched as the glamour he had put up that morning, just like every morning, disappeared and saw someone he didn't recognise staring back at him. A person his age with pale skin, sunken cheeks, his ribcage starting to show.
A startled gasp made Harry jump and he turned to see Myrtle there. "Harry what are you doing to yourself. You are making yourself ill like this."
"I don't care." Harry replaced his glamour and looked at Myrtle who was on the verge of tears. "Please Myrtle. You promised me you would never tell."
"That was before I knew what you was doing to yourself."
"Myrtle. Please. I will visit you more often."
"You keep this up Harry the only thing you will be visiting is the hospital wing."
"Please?" Harry started to get desperate. "What about Draco? You liked talking to him how about if I got him to come and visit you?"
"Oh yes Harry I would like that. I do miss talking to him. Okay Harry. Your secret is safe with me."
"Thank you Myrtle."
Well? What do you think?
Chapter three up tomorrow :D
