Big plot twists coming up!

YEAR SIX

Harry walked out of Dumbledore's office feeling confused.

"Slughorn's memory is the key to destroying Voldemort. I know you can obtain it, Harry. I know you won't fail," the Headmaster had said, more cryptically than usual.

Harry walked back to the Gryffindor common room, contemplating the situation in his head. 'I have to steal a memory from an unwilling person. That's literally mind-rape. Dumbledore's mad.

When Harry got back to the common room, he decided to start on his potions essay and get it out of the way. He summoned his book and got out some parchment. As he flipped to the part of the book the class was studying, he was relieved to discover that the mysterious Half-Blood Prince had once again saved his butt by writing everything he needed to know about the subject of his essay. 'Merlin, I was lucky to have gotten this book.'

Then it dawned on him. Luck. Luck was what he needed. Though, not just regular luck would get him that memory. No, he needed artificial luck. He needed Felix Felices.

He just knew he would be successful in getting that memory tonight. He didn't know how, but he knew he was going to get it; but first, he was going to Hagrid's. For some reason, as he told Elix, Ron, and Hermione, he knew that Hagrid's was the place to be tonight. As he walked through the unusually empty corridors, he couldn't help but feel optimistic. Who knew liquid luck could make someone feel this good?

Harry walked out of the castle and across the bridge toward the stone circle when he saw Hagrid and Professor Slughorn in the distance. He walked over to them, knowing they wouldn't chastise him for being out after hours. He approached and noticed they were standing next to the dead body of Aragog, the spider that almost killed Harry and Ron during their second year. "What happened?" Harry asked, standing next to Hagrid.

Hagrid wiped tears from his eyes, unfazed by Harry's presence. "I was goin' ter visit Aragog and…and I found this," the giant babbled, bursting into tears once again.

"Pity," Harry shrugged, genuinely unmoved by the arachnid's death. "I'm parched. Do you have any Firewhiskey, Hagrid?" he added nonchalantly.

Hagrid and Slughorn briefly looked at Harry in shock before, as if in a trance, they snapped out of it and Hagrid said, "Of course, Harry. Come on in. Horace, yer welcome to join as well."

After a few hours and a few bottles of Firewhiskey, Harry, Hagrid, and Slughorn were laughing and joking as if they were three long-time friends catching up. Hagrid had passed out and Harry and Slughorn were making fun of Snape when Horace looked quizzically at Harry. "So, Harry, how are you and Elix doing?" the Potions teacher asked sincerely.

Harry blushed and answered, "We're doing really great, Professor. Thank you for asking."

Slughorn nodded and continued, "I've always been curious about the success of young love. Tell me, Harry, what kind of future do you see Elix and yourself having? Where do you see yourselves ten years from now?"

Harry thought carefully for a moment. "Well, I see us happily married. I see a couple of kids. We'll more than likely adopt, because I'd have to be insanely lucky to do it genetically. Surrogates aren't exactly easy. I see us being successful in our fields of work. I see us as madly in love as the day we met."

Slughorn nodded, looking like he was about to pass out. Harry got an idea.

"So, Professor, since I shared something deeply personal with you, I was hoping to ask you for a favor," he said calmly.

"Anything, my boy," Slughorn mumbled, hiccupping.

"Well, I know I approached this the wrong way before, but Dumbledore really needs something from you. He needs the memory of you and Tom Riddle. It's the only way of stopping Voldemort. This memory could save the wizarding world."

Slughorn turned very serious for a moment before shrugging and saying, "Well, when you put it that way, it's hard to decline." Slughorn pulled out his wand as Harry retrieved a small vial from his pocket. After Slughorn retrieved the memory with his wand and carefully put it Harry's vial, Harry closed it and stood to leave.

"Thank you, sir. This means so much to everyone," Harry said sincerely before quickly leaving the hut before Slughorn could stop him. Slughorn simply nodded before the alcohol took its effect and the professor collapsed into sleep.

Harry half-ran back to the castle, happy that his plan had worked. He had spent so long worrying about Dumbledore's requests that he had started neglecting his relationship with Elix, but now that his mission was complete, he was more than ready to make it up to him. Big time. 'Maybe he'll even wear one of those outfits he said he bought. That would be so hot,' Harry thought absently as he walked into the castle. Upon entering, he saw Elix walking by himself toward the Great Hall. Elix turned when Harry approached and smiled at his lover.

"Hey babe. You ready to go to dinner?" Elix asked, extending his hand.

Harry approached Elix and whispered in his ear, "Yes, but I'm not hungry for food," before picking him up bridal-style and carrying him up to the common room. When they got there, Harry carefully lowered Elix to his feet.

"Go sit on the bed and close your eyes," Elix said softly. "I wanna show you something." Harry did as he was told, sitting on the edge of the bed, keeping his eyes shut tight. "No peeking," Elix teased when he thought he saw Harry trying to subtly open his eyes.

"Don't worry, baby. I'm not," Harry assured him.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

All of a sudden Harry heard music. He identified it as the opening music of Katy Perry's "Dressin' Up" as Elix said, "You can open your eyes now." As Harry opened them, his jaw dropped and his pants became uncomfortably tight. Elix was wearing a skin-tight blue police shirt with matching booty shorts, a black police hat, and knee-high black boots. As Katy started singing, Elix slowly approached Harry with a seductive swing to his hips.

Saucer of milk, table for two
You wanna pet my kitty, you're such a dirty doggie
It's your lucky night 'cause I'm in the mood
I'm feeling spicy, I'm feeling real naughty
Pick a part, you dream it up
A dark vixen, a Lolita
Oh boy, tell me your fantasy
Tonight's the night
I'm dressin' up for you

Elix stopped in front of his fiancé and roughly pushed him so he was lying flat on his back, the blonde climbing over him and hungrily kissing Harry while undressing him at the same time as the song continued.

I can tell you're obsessed by your shortness of breath
Oh, my cookie monster wants a taste test
Be a good boy and I'll show you the rest
Oh, my little voyeur wants to play explorer
Pick a part, you dream it up
Librarian, dominatrix
Oh boy, tell me your fantasy
Tonight's the night

As the chorus started, Elix had completely stripped Harry and was now giving the dark-haired boy the best blowjob he had ever had; Harry was moaning in ecstasy, grabbing Elix by the hair and pushing him further down on his massive erection.

Tonight I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your 9 to 5
Are you ready for your blood to rise
Tonight's the night
I'm dressin' up for you

Elix had now gotten completely on top of Harry, continuing to suck him while Harry passionately licked, kissed, and sucked Elix's tight, smooth entrance.

You're getting hot, so let's call the nurse
Oh, I feel a fever, let's take your temperature
You better behave or a police officer will have to hold you down
Give you what you deserve
Pick a part, you dream it up
Use your imagination
Oh boy, I'll be your fantasy
Tonight's the night

Elix had removed his shirt and pants, leaving him only in the heeled boots and police hat, as he crouched over Harry and slowly lowered himself on the huge rod. Both men breathed a sigh of pleasure when Elix bottomed out on Harry's dick and started to ride him vigorously.

Tonight I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your 9 to 5
Are you ready for your blood to rise
Tonight's the night
I'm dressin' up for you

Tonight I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your 9 to 5
Are you ready for your blood to rise
Tonight's the night
I'm dressin' up for you

Elix climbed off of Harry and got on his knees, slightly shaking his round bum at the other man. Harry got on his own knees behind his lover and lined his cock up to the inviting hole before easily sliding in, fucking Elix with a passion.

Tied, tight, tip, teasing
Push, pull, pressure, pleasing
Beads of sweat drip down your neck
Breathing deep, gaining speed
'Bout to peak, trembling
Trembling, trembling

Tonight I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your 9 to 5
Are you ready for your blood to rise
Tonight's the night
I'm dressin' up for you

Tonight I'm gonna come alive
Make you forget about your 9 to 5
Are you ready for your blood to rise
Tonight's the night
I'm dressin' up for you

Both of them finished when the song did, crying out in pleasure as they came. Harry collapsed next to Elix, pulling the smaller man close. It had been their shortest, yet most satisfying, love-making session to date, and Harry had decided that his artificial luck made this one of the best days of his life. Elix unzipped the boots, kicking them off to the side of the bed, along with the hat, before bringing the blanket up over him and Harry and curling into his lover's side. He waved his wand to turn off his iPod, which had played the song earlier.

"You're so perfect," Harry whispered.

"No more perfect than you," Elix responded. "I love you so much, Harry."

"I love you too," Harry mumbled before they fell asleep.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Three weeks later Harry, Ron and Hermione were sitting in the astronomy tower. Harry was trying to convince his friends to let him find the horcruxes by himself, but Ron and Hermione weren't having it.

"When will you get it through your head?" Hermione asked, exasperated. "We're in this together, until the very end."

Harry smiled, touched that his friends cared so much. "Fine. Thank you."

Hermione and Ron smiled in response, before the sound of footsteps coming up the stairs captured the trio's attention. Elix appeared at the top of the stairs looking disheveled and confused. "Harry, can I talk to you privately for a second?" he asked weakly. Harry nodded and walked down the stairs with Elix, concerned about his lover's solemnness.

"Is everything alright, Elix? Are you still feeling sick?" Harry asked, worry etched in his voice.

Elix took a deep breath, not making eye contact with his fiancé. "Yeah, um, I started feeling even worse this morning, so I went to see Madam Pomfrey, and she doesn't know how, but…" Elix looked up and looked Harry dead in the eye. "I'm pregnant."

Harry went pale. His breathing stopped. He started sweating. How was this possible? They're two men. Even in the wizarding world, the chances of a male getting pregnant were extremely slim to none. Harry started stuttering. "What? How? What are you talking about? How is that possible? How did she know?"

"I don't know much more than you do, Harry," Elix interrupted Harry's rambling softly. "I just knew that what I was feeling wasn't normal and I needed to go to the hospital wing. Pomfrey told me that I needed to be completely honest and I promised I would, and then she asked if I had sex in the past month. I told her that we did a few weeks ago. She did some spell, performed an ultrasound, and confirmed it. I'm going to have your baby, Harry, and I understand if you want to leave me while you still can, but I'm begging you not to," the blonde whispered, wiping tears from his eyes.

Harry pulled the shorter boy into a heart-melting kiss. "I'll never leave you, especially not when you need me most. I love you far too much to do something like that, Elix."

"I love you, too," Elix said, hugging Harry and resting his head on the taller boy's chest.

"There's something I need to tell you, also," Harry said hesitantly, worrying how Elix would take the news. Elix pulled away and looked at his fiancé curiously. Harry cleared his throat and continued, "Well, next year instead of coming to school, Ron, Hermione and I are going to search for and destroy all the horcruxes. I was going to ask you to come with us, but since you're pregnant, I think it would be safer if you stayed here."

Elix looked shocked. "Are you fucking joking? I'm just supposed to sit here and do nothing while my baby's father and best friends are out there putting their lives at risk? You've got to be kidding me right now," Elix spat in irritation.

Harry looked at his lover apologetically. "Baby, I want you with me. I really do, but now that I know you're pregnant, I can't put you in harm's way. If something happened to you and the baby, I'd never be able to live with myself."

Elix opened his mouth to retort, before changing his mind, closing his mouth and storming off angrily.

"Well, that could have gone better," Ron joked, startling Harry.

"Merlin, is anything ever private with you two?"

Hermione snorted, "No. But look at the bright side! You're going to be a father!"

Harry really thought about it and let it completely sink in. He was going to be a father. Was he excited? Yes. Was he surprised? Bloody hell, yes. Was he terrified? Absolutely. He realized that above all these confusing emotions, overall he felt happy that Elix was the one he was doing this with. He knew he needed to find Elix and set this right.

Harry knew just where to find Elix. He headed to McGonagall's classroom, and yet again, Elix was by himself, messing with his iPod. Harry knocked tentatively. "May I come in?"

Elix turned, startled, and smiled weakly at his lover. He nodded and Harry slowly entered the classroom. "I'm sorry," Elix apologized. "I shouldn't have blown up at you like that. You're completely right. Going to look for the horcruxes would be too reckless. I guess I'm just scared of doing this alone."

Harry pulled Elix into a deep hug. "You're not going to do this alone," Harry promised. "I'm going to find those horcruxes and defeat Voldemort and then I'll be by your side for life. There is no way in hell that I won't be right next to you throughout this whole experience."

Elix pulled out of the hug and looked up at Harry, keeping his arms around the taller boy's neck. "I have an idea. I'll order us a couple of cell phones. We can call and text each other every day and it will be much safer than using owls."

Harry smiled and kissed Elix. "You're brilliant. It's a perfect idea."

Elix kissed back then pulled away slightly. "So, I have a song prepared for my "X Factor" audition. Wanna hear it?"

"Sure," Harry nodded, smiling as he sat in a chair by the side of the room.

"Ok, this is dedicated to you, babe," Elix smiled back as he waved his wand to make his iPod start playing as if attached to a stereo. The intro to Britney Spears' "Hold On Tight" filled the room and Elix started to sing, sounding flawless.

So wicked in the way he moves
Don't miss it, do not be a fool
It's a long way, it's a long way home
Light inside of me, it ignites my bones

He comes to me in my dreams
And tells me what I need to know
He makes me feel so at ease
And guides me to the lights above
I just wanna fall into his arms tonight
Someone tell me I, I will be alright
Hold on tight

Remembering, I forever will
Surrendering just to how we felt
It's a long way, it's a long way home
Light inside of me, it ignites my bones

He comes to me in my dreams
And tells me what I need to know
He makes me feel so at ease
And guides me to the lights above
I just wanna fall into his arms tonight
Someone tell me I, I will be alright
Hold on tight

And when it's all the thunder and rain
The cinema is fading away
I gotta make my way through the night
Holding on with all of my might
And when I'm lost and I can't find the way
I feel the pieces breaking away
Hug myself with all of my might
Don't let go, just hold on tight

He comes to me in my dreams
And tells me what I need to know
He makes me feel so at ease
And guides me to the lights above
I just wanna fall into his arms tonight
Someone tell me I, I will be alright
Hold on tight

Harry stood and applauded, wiping tears that he hadn't realized had fallen. "That was beautiful, Elix! You're going to blow them away."

Elix smiled, "Thank you, baby. I just hope I'll still be able to do it with my…condition."

"You'll do it," Harry assured him. "You're talented, gorgeous, outgoing. You'll stun them and become a star."

"I love you so much, Harry," Elix said, blushing and holding his fiancé's hand. "Please don't ever leave me."

"Never," Harry whispered, kissing Elix again.
