AN: Thank you all for the reviews! Hope you all enjoy this next chapter. :)
What in bloody hell is taking him so long?! Harry bitterly thought to himself. He had picked up all the pieces now, but Draco had been gone for almost several minutes. Slumping back against his bed he waited, and listened. Finally nearly a moment later he heard rushed footsteps coming towards the door. I swear to god-if he went and got Snape I'll beat the living-
"Potter!" Harry's head snapped back. Draco quickly rushed into the room slamming the door close, but the glue was in his hand… yet Draco's face was full of fear, Harry jerked himself up. Something was not right-something was about to happen.
"What is it?" Harry harshly whispered grabbing onto Draco's shoulders, but he didn't receive a response; a new pair of footsteps was racing down the hall now. Harry's eyes widened instantly releasing his captive. Draco dropped the glue to the floor kicking it under the bed. Harry swept the glass into his hands ignoring the deep gashes it was making.
"What do I do with this!?" Harry panicked. Draco looked around the room, thinking-needing a place to store the broken glass for now- then he turned to the bathroom.
"Quick! Give it here, Potter!" Harry without any hesitation dumped the remains into the waiting hands. Draco quickly rushed to the bathroom, shutting and locking the door behind him.
Not moments later did Snape and Lucius stumble into the room. "Harry?" Snape questioned. Harry wrapped his bleeding hands behind his back. Maybe if he was lucky Snape wouldn't notice... but since when was he ever lucky?
"Yes?" He then innocently replied looking up to meet those dark and knowing eyes. Snape raised a suspicious eyebrow at Harry's act, he wasn't fooled the in least. Lucius on the other hand payed no attention, he was looking for something else and without finding it, he turned to Harry.
"Where is my son?" Lucius noted. "Is he in here?"
"Your son?" Harry tried stalling, but he was receiving little or no patients from the older wizards so he calmly went on. "Oh right, Draco! Ha, funny story…"
"So far, I'm not finding it very humorous." Snape commented crossing his arms over his broad chest.
Yeah, like you find anything 'humorous' to begin with. Harry snorted. "Ok, so it's not a funny story. He is uh… sorta in the bathroom right now."
"And what is he doing in the bathroom?" Lucius wondered walking into the room and over to the closed bathroom door. Snape and Harry both watched as Lucius knocked on the door. Snape took the time to put his hand on the back Of Harry's neck.
"He better be in there, Harry." Snape paused. "For your sake."
Harry swallowed apprehensively. YOU better be in there, Draco.
Lucius was about to knock again when the door popped open. Draco's head could hardly be seen through the small opening of the door. He looked slightly annoyed. "Yeah?" Draco looked around the room like he had never seen it before. "What do you all want… and what is he doing in here?" Draco questioned.
"What are you doing in the bathroom son?" Lucius half demanded.
Draco rolled his eyes. "I was getting ready for bed like you asked-father." He added a little snidely.
Harry raised an eyebrow, a little confused. What are you doing, Malfoy?
"We heard a racket coming from up here." Snape observed. Draco didn't even seemed to be fazed.
"Really? Huh? Potter, did you hear anything?" Draco opened the door a little more so he could lean on it. Snape and Lucius turned to look at Harry's response. Meanwhile Harry watched Draco, who nodded his head 'yes' the moment Lucius and Snape turned away.
"Uh. . . I might have- I mean. Yes. I mean no. No? Oh Yes." Harry was obviously not that good of a liar. Draco smacked his forehead which caused Snape to look over in his direction. Draco quickly changed his expression into a smile until he looked away. "I'm not really sure I was going to lay down for a nap when-when I thought I may have heard something-uh… yeah."
The room stood in silence for a while as everyone was trying to process even part of what Harry had said, before finally someone spoke up.
"That didn't even make since!" Draco ranted. "Did it?"
Shaking his head in disgrace Snape looked up. "You suck at lying, Potter." he added bluntly "I mean for Merlin's sake-that was absolutely awful."
Lucius chuckled before looking down at the floor. "I'd say I'd have to agree. That was the worst lying I'd ever had to witness."
"Fun entertainment?" Snape joked at Lucius.
"You always have the best." Lucius condoned. Draco who still stood in the bathroom narrowed his eyes, glaring at Harry.
"Well don't look at me like that." Harry blushed.
"Like you can blame him, Harry." Snape smirked.
"Who taught you how to lie?" Draco spat annoyed.
Lucius turned to look at his son. "You wouldn't have gotten away with it anyways." Lucius's voice became more serous-sterner.
"Without a doubt." Snape agreed.
"And why the hell not!?" Draco yelled throwing the bathroom door back all the way. Lucius's eyes narrowed-much like Draco's do.
"Watch your language young man. You are in enough trouble as it is." Lucius warned.
"Answering your question, Draco. Have you seen what the two of you look like?" Snape asked. Harry who had been listing to the conversation took a moment to take a good look at himself. Oh shit. Of course! Stupid. We are absolutely stupid. Harry then watched as Draco struggled to figure out what he was talking about.
Lucius lost patience and grabbed Draco by the bicep, pulling him to the mirror that hung in the bathroom.
"You have a bruise on you jaw, your lip is busted, your hair is atrocious, and look what you did to Pot-Harry." Lucius said turning Draco around to face his enemy.
Harry tried to look away. His hair was also a mess, but his shirt was ripped, and his cheek was bleeding.
"I didn't do that to his hands though, that was from-" Draco tried to catch himself but it was already to late.
DRACO! You impossible idiot! Harry vexed.
He let fourth the secret, the whole reason behind lying.
And now, they knew...
I tried to crank out as many chapters as I could before my break was over. lol Hopefully I'll get another chapter out soon! :)
