A/N: Filler... that is all I have to say about this chapter.

Chapter 10: Caught

Harry and Draco left the abandoned classroom a few minutes later and started making their way down to the Great Hall. It was still early so they didn't rush to get there. Draco reached out and grabbed Harry's hand, linking their fingers together. Harry grinned and blushed when he looked over at him. Draco grinned as well and his cheeks turned a little pink.

"You know, I think everyone would faint if we walked into the Great Hall like this," Harry commented lifting their linked hands.

"Nah, they would probably barely notice. Now if I were to do this," he paused as he let go of Harry's hand, reluctantly of course, and slid an arm around his waist and pulled him close. Harry slid his arm around Draco's waist, making them even closer. "They would definitely faint," Draco finished.

Harry stopped and looked up at him curiously. "What if we were to stop in the middle of the Great Hall, right in front of the staff table and do this?" Harry questioned as he stepped in front of him and took a fist full of his shirt and pulled him down into a passionate kiss. He opened his mouth, sliding his tongue across Draco's bottom lip. Draco instantly opened his mouth and met Harry's tongue with his own.

A sharp gasp sounded behind them. Both boys stopped mid-kiss and opened their eyes wide. Harry and Draco parted slowly and turned to where they heard the gasp coming from. They were surprised to see Ginny standing there, her mouth hanging open in shock. Hermione was standing next to her looking apologetic and yet amused at catching Harry and Draco in the act.

Harry blushed deeply and opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't quite form the words. Ginny continued to stare at the two with her mouth hanging up. Finally, she closed her mouth and cocked a hip.

"Well, that explains a lot," she commented. It was now Harry's turn to open his mouth in shock. He blushed even deeper, especially when Draco began snickering next to him.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Harry demanded.

Ginny shrugged. "I don't know. I always knew you had some sort of obsession with Malfoy, but I didn't realize it was to this extent. Although, I will say that it's super hot," she grinned at him.

Harry's eyes widened. "I am not obsessed with Malfoy! He was a crafty guy and suspicious. As someone who was meant to take people down like him, I had to keep a close eye on him," Harry spluttered.

"Now wait a minute! I am not suspicious!" Draco responded angrily.

"Note how he said was," Hermione commented.

Draco glared at her, but bit his lip knowing that she was right.

"Yes, well, Harry, I think you've always had a thing for Draco. It was just clouded over by your hatred," Ginny responded.

Draco's face fell at the hatred comment. He felt a sting to his heart and he looked to Harry for a response. He was surprised at what he saw. Harry looked really mad. "Ginny, I never hated Draco," Harry said through clenched teeth. Harry looked determined and angry so he was inclined to believe him plus he used his first name and that made Draco believe him as well.

Both Hermione and Ginny cocked an eyebrow at the passion in his voice. "Okay, my mistake then," Ginny muttered looking away from the anger filled look on Harry's face. Draco reached out and took Harry's hand in his own. He instantly saw the tension in his shoulders release and Draco smiled slightly and blushed. Hermione saw the change and felt herself smiling with him. Ginny looked at her and then at Draco, realization setting in.

"You knew about this?" she questioned.

Hermione jerked her head over to her, eyes wide. She blushed giving a non-committal shrug. Ginny stared at her and then turned to look at the two boys again. She shrugged.

"Harry," she said as she stepped over to him. Harry took a step back, surprised at her tender tone. "Is whatever is going on with you and Malfoy, what you want?" she asked.

Harry glanced back at Draco, nearly melting at the sight of him. He looked back at Ginny and nodded.

"And it will make you happy either now or eventually?" she asked again.

Draco was waiting intently for Harry's answer. He watched him carefully for any untruth to his response.

"Yes, both," Harry responded surely.

Draco grinned and gave a silent 'yes' with a fist pump. Hermione and Ginny did not miss the celebration. Ginny turned to look at Draco and stared at him intently. "What about you, Malfoy?"

"What?" he asked caught off guard that the attention was now on him. Harry glanced over at him.

"Do you want whatever is going on between you and Harry?" she asked him.

Draco gulped. "Yes," he muttered.

"And does Harry make you happy?" she asked.

Draco nodded. "Definitely," he added.

She nodded, deep in thought. She looked between the two and watched as both shifted uncomfortably. "Alright then, let's go Hermione. Breakfast awaits," Ginny said as she started walking away. She stopped and turned to look at them again. "I may understand and be okay with it, but I can't guarantee Ron will be," she added. She turned again and Hermione looked over at Harry and gave a quick wave before following behind her.

Harry and Draco stood there, dumbfounded at what had just happened. Harry turned to look at Draco. "I guess we have their blessing?" he commented.

Draco nodded. "Looks like it," he responded.
