All for Love
Part 9
After Harry left divination he looked outside and noticed that it had started to snow. He loved snow. There just was something heavenly about the flakes that drew him to them. Bringing himself out of his thoughts he continued to his next class. Although he loved snow, one thing that he did loathe was potions. And that was where he was off to. At least he would be able to see Draco again, and if he was lucky maybe a quick snog after class. He knew that Draco was not ready for there relationship to go public. He didn't think he was ready for that himself. He knew he had to tell his friends, but he doubted Draco told any of his.
When he entered the potions classroom he took a quick look over to the Slytherin side of the room and noticed that Draco was already there. He gave Draco a quick smile and was relieved to see Draco give him a small smile back. He took his seat in front of Hermonie and waited for Ron to come in. He sat right in front of them since there were only 2 seats to a table, and he wanted the lovebirds to sit together. He looked over to Hermonie and saw that she had been trying to gets his attention.
"Hey Harry, how was divination. I wish I could have been there today." This surprised Harry. Hermonie had left the class and had not come back during 3rd year. She always maintained that the professor was a fake.
"Hermonie, I can't believe you said that. I thought you didn't believe in divination."
"Of course I believe in divination, but I still think that Professor Trelawney is mostly a fake."
"Then why would you want to be in class today?"
"Well on a day like this not even that fake could screw up a prediction. I mean she has to have some powers otherwise Dumbledore would never have hired her. But when it comes to her I think she guesses more than she knows. Anyway, I was reading this book on prophecy's and it stated that once every hundred years prophecy's come around more frequent since the planets align which gives seers and divination experts clearer presence in the future. It's a proven fact that a prophecy done on that day has a 90% chance of coming true. I heard that she was reading student futures today. I would have liked her to do mine. What do you think Harry? Harry.. Harry!"
Harry was in a world of his own after Hermonie was telling him that divination powers were improved today. He was thinking back to his own prediction from the teacher.
//"Oh you poor child. I see that someone close to you will face grave misfortune in their near future. They will have to make a choice that will change their life forever. I do not see how they will live."//
If what Hermonie just said was correct then that prediction had a great chance of coming true. This scared him. Someone close to him. There weren't that many. Was Voldermort going to get one of them? He sat there thinking. Dumbledore was safe and could defend himself. Ron and Hermonie, while not as powerful as Dumbledore, knew how to apparate. But she said they would make a choice. Voldermort kidnapping them wouldn't be a choice. He knew they would not betray them. But then his mind went to another that was now close to him.. Draco!
The entire class got quiet and everyone started looking at him. He had the distinct impression that that was not said only in his mind. Hermonie was giving him a weird look and so was Ron who had finally showed up. Snape entering the room to begin class saved him from having to explain his sudden out burst. He would have to give more thought on this later.
"Alright class, I have decided to assign partners for this next potion. As I call your name go to your partner and get your ingredients. Weasley...Crabbe, Longbottom to stave off disaster I am assigning you to granger. Potter.Malfoy" Snape continued down the list in his hand until everyone was assigned a partner. Harry happily walked over to Draco. Normally he would not have been happy with the pairing, but he couldn't be upset with sitting with his boyfriend. He took his seat next to Draco and have him a quick hi. Draco leaned his head towards Harry.
"Harry what was with you yelling my name awhile ago?" Harry did not want to think about it right now. The chance of losing Draco was unbearable. If the professor was talking about Draco he wanted to think it all through first. Best not to let Draco know about the prediction just yet.
"Sorry about that I was just thinking about you and it slipped." Draco didn't look too convinced but Harry was relieved when Draco didn't push the issue. He sat down and started to cut up the roots. He looked back over to Draco.
"You want to meet tomorrow in the Astronomy Tower?"
"Trying to get me alone are you Harry?"
Harry leaned a little closer to Draco. Draco was gulping. Surely Harry wouldn't kiss him here in front of everyone. He watched Harry's lips. "What if I am trying to get you alone?"
Draco started blushing a little. He whispered to Harry that it would be fine. Harry leaned in a little closer to him. "Good" then Harry shot to the left and grabbed another stack of roots, leaving Draco there gaping trying to find out what just happened.
Later in the class Snape approached to find out how the potion was going. Harry was a little worried. Snape never missed a chance to take points from Gryffindor. Snape started to look at the potion that was simmering on the fire.
"Very good Mr. Malfoy. Not even Potter could screw this up with your help." Harry was steaming. He was the one who did most of the work. All Draco did was sit there and stir. But knowing Draco he would not admit it. Harry waited for it.
"I agree Professor. It takes skill to do potions." Harry saw Draco smirking at him as he said this. So that's how it was going to be. Harry had an evil thought. Snape was in front of them and was only paying attention to Draco and the cauldron. Harry slipped his right hand under the table and waited for Draco to start talking again.
"You did a very good job on this potion Mr. Malfoy." This was the time. As soon as Draco started talking Harry started to rub Draco's leg.
Draco was delighted when Snape praised him about the potion. He saw haw mad Harry was getting from the last comment by Snape stating that not even Harry could screw this up. He couldn't help pestering Harry a little. "I agree Professor. It takes skill to do potions." He gave a smirk in Harry's direction when Snape turned to Potter to nod.
"You did a very good job on this potion Mr. Malfoy."
Draco was proud. "I knooooooooowwwwwww Professor" Something had just rubbed his leg. Draco glanced to his left and saw Harry there with an innocent expression. But he could feel Harry's hands rubbing up and down his leg. He gulped.
"Mr. Malfoy are you ok?" Draco was started to blush. Harry's hand kept rubbing up and down his leg. He knew he had to answer Snape.
"I. I'm finnnnnnnnnne" Harry had squeezed his thigh as soon as he started talking. Snape was giving him a weird look now.
"Are you sure, you're turning red." Harry's hand was moving up higher. Draco was beginning a small pant. He knew he was moments away from being forced to the infirmary. He glanced again at Harry seeing he still wore an expression of innocence. Draco looked back at Snape. While keeping eye contact with Snape he brought his right foot up and stomped hard on Harry's left. Harry yelped and shot up out of his seat.
"Mr. Potter 10 points from Gryffindor for yelling in my class and another 10 for being inconsiderate to Mr. Malfoy when he was trying to talk to me." Draco grinned. With Harry's hand off of him, he had not problems answering Snape.
"I am fine sir. Just got a little hot for a moment." He heard a snort coming from Harry's direction, but decided to ignore it. Snape gave him a nod and continued on to the next potion. Draco turned to Harry and looked him in the eye.
"You evil bastard. That was not funny." He was appalled to see Harry giggling. After Draco thought for a moment about it he started to giggle too.
