Chapter 9 the memorial
That day went fast by and Harry and Draco walked to their own bed with a goodnight kiss and fell to sleep once their head hit their pillow.
The morning after Draco was woken up by his mother.
«Draco honey, you have to get ready for the memorial» She smiled down at him. She gave him a sandwich and a glass of juice. He sat up in the bed and started to eat
«Me and your father spoke with the dark lord this morning» She said while he chew on the sandwich. «You and Harry have a relationship going on, right? » Draco swallowed and nodded
«Yes, We are»
«I just wanted to say that if Harry asks you a certain question in the future, you are allowed to say yes, you both have mine and your fathers blessing, as the dark lord's»
Smiling Draco nodded and took another bite.
«Do you need help with the girly stuff or do you already know how to do it?» She asked, smiling as to tell him that he did not need to be embarrassed.
«Yes, I have lived without the glamour on. I have been to muggle clubs as a girl you know» He smiled.
«You have girls clothing? » She asked a bit surprised.
«Yes, I have, I have charmed it so that no one will notice them, I have of course lifted the spell now»
He ate the rest of it in silence and went out of bed. He walked over to his wardrobe and took out his red gown. He had found it in Diagon Alley and loved it, so he had bought it, and now he could finally use it. He knew he should wear something black, but he just had to wear it. Draco went behind his changing curtain and took on his dress. He looked at himself in the mirror. He looked beautiful and he knew it. The red dress swung in at his waist and made his figure look even more like a hourglass. He walked out from the changing curtains to the bed where is mother was sitting. She just gaped at him.
«Draco, why did you hide this? You look like a Veela really» She said and smiled.
«I did not want to hide it, I love this look, but can you do me a favour? » he asked.
«Of course» She smiled.
«Make my hair» Draco said and Narcissa smiled wildly.
«I always wanted a girl so I could fix her hair» she said and started. «Since it is a memorial, I am going to make it simple and tasteful. » Draco nodded.
«Draco, I am going to cry. Look at you» Narcissa said looking at Draco after half an hour making his hair. He had the dress on and red pearls in his hair which was put nicely into a nice doing.
«You walk better in high heels than me» Draco laughed at her and hugged her.
«Thank you mum» She smiled to him.
«Go and catch your man now, he is waiting, I heard him knock for 2 minutes ago»
Draco grinned and walked out where Harry was waiting.
«I need you to glamour me» Harry said after a long kiss. Draco nodded and Harry looked like he had done in Diagon Alley the day he and Draco had been shopping. Brown thick hair down to his shoulders put into a tail where Draco put a red velvet bond to match his dress. Harry's scar was gone and his eyes were almost black. Some facial features also changed so no one could see it was him. He wore a black suit with a red tie.
«Wonderful» Draco said and kissed him. They apparated to Hogsmead, and walked into a carriage, which would bring them to Hogwarts. In the carriage Draco and Harry were kissing. Their hands were wandering everywhere. Harry cupped Draco's breast and started kissing his neck.
«Harry, please, not now» gasp.. «Wait to tonight» Draco gasped. « You are ruining my look» Harry smiled and kissed his lips tenderly.
«We are there about two minutes» Harry said looking out.
Draco had already found his purse with a mirror and fixed his looks quickly and straightened out his dress while mumbling something about being glad he had shrunk his privates.
Harry laughed quietly for himself, while he willed his erection down.
Harry walked first out of the black carriage and took Draco's hand and helped him out. It was a really sunny day and both knew they would have problems faking sadness. People came out of carriages and the 9 ¾ train. Draco put his arm into Harry's and started walking towards the castle. People looked gloom, but no one of them were crying, that was until they came into the castle, students were hugging each other and crying. Harry walked through the people in into the great hall. There had they had removed all the tables and put chairs on two sides just like a church, and hung up 4 black flag where the four tables should have been. Where the teacher table had been, there was a magical speaker and a huge magical picture of Harry, one of those Colin Creevy had taken.
«I need to see Pansy while I am here, we are to pick her up and take her with us.» Draco whispered to Harry.
« Are you ready for that?» he whispered back.
«Think I am, she needs to know. She is my best friend you know.» Harry just nodded and found two chairs.
They sat there chatting and people came and Dumbledore stepped up to the speaker and started his speech.
«We are here today because of the passing of one of the finest men in history. Already as a child he did a lot for the wizarding world. When he first came to Hogwarts, he was just a child of eleven, had never heard about magic and wizards like most muggle borns, but he had also the fame on him. He managed quite well being famous. He was loved by many people and will be missed dearly. He was our Golden Boy»Dumbledore said gravely without his usually twinkle in his eye.
«I hate being called the golden boy or the boy who lived» Harry. Draco just nodded in response and took his hand. Everyone in the Great Hall sniffed and sobbed. Suddenly Ron stood there with the speaker. He had tears rolling down.
«When I first met Harry Potter were in first year when my family helped him through the gate to platform 9 ¾, later I found him alone in one compartment. I had no idea who he was, so I asked if I could join him there. He said yes, he told me his name. And I were thrilled, happy to have met the famous Harry Potter, later I found out that he was not just a famous name, he was something for himself, we were sorted into the same house, Griffindor and we became best friends. We had some ups and downs like most friendships, but I really loved him. I will truly miss him» He said and walked down. Harry's eyes followed him to where he sat down with Hermione. Ron put his arms around Hermione and sobbed, both of them cried their into each others arms for their loss. A stab of guilt hit Harry and he really wanted to go over to them and make the pain go away, but he knew that would not work so he sat in silence and tried to make the guilt go away.
After some other students had said some words how brave he had been, and how he was going to be missed they walked out of the Great Hall.
Draco had his arm into Harry's and they walked out with the crowd. After a couple of minutes, they could walk inside again. Inside the table had been moved back to the way it usually was. The four black flag still hung over the tables and the huge picture had been floated over so it hung over the people heads.
They walked around and mingled a bit before they sat down on a table.
«It looks like I am going to be missed» Harry said and looked around at the crying people..
«Yes, it looks like you are going to be missed. They will be surprised when you suddenly appear in a attack sometime in the future. With the dark lord» Again the guilt shut up in him. How could he do this? Join the dark lord and abandon his friends. He loved them.
«I need to find Pansy do you see her? » Draco asked after a couple minutes of silence.
«She is over there with Zabini» Harry pointed out.
They walked over and Draco picked her shoulder. She turned around and frowned.
«Can I help you? » She asked in a polite voice, but showed that she would rather that they buggered off.
«Pansy, can you come with us, we need to talk, I am here to pick you up» Draco said.
«I thought Draco Malfoy was going to do that» She said.
«It is one of the things we need to talk about, we are going now»
«I have one friend that is thinking about joining our side. She is a bit confused. Is it Ok that I bring her with me? I will bring her over» She asked. «She is my girlfriend»
Draco eyebrows shot up.
«How come you never told me you were gay? »
«Excuse me, I have never seen you in my life, but is it ok?»
«Who is it? »
«Hermione Granger»
This time it was Harry's eyes that shot up.
«She did never tell me she was gay»
Pansy looked confused.
«Bring her along» Harry said. «We can always delete her memories if she decide she is not on our side.»
Pansy smiled.
«Go and get your girl and meet us outside. We have something to tell you»
Pansy nodded and walked away, looking for Hermione.
Harry and Draco walked out to their carriage.
«I did not know Hermione is gay, how come she never told me? »
«The same goes for me, Pansy never told me, but I have no orientation, I am both you know» He said and grinned.
Harry laughed and kissed him.
They broke apart when they heard footsteps coming closer.
«Into the carriage»Harry said and helped all the three ladies inside before he climbed inside himself.
Inside the carriage Hermione looked at him.
«Who are you? I saw you inside, with her» Hermione asked and looked at both Draco and Harry.
He smiled.
«Put of my glamour.» Harry said and changed into himself.
Hermione's eyes widened and hugged him. She started to cry. Harry hugged her back. They just sat there rocking each other.
«Who are you? » Pansy just managed to pull herself together and looked at Draco.
«She looks like a Malfoy» Hermione said and put her arms around Pansy.
«Yes, she does, but I know the Malfoy's and they do not have any girls» Pansy said. «Who are you? Do you have a glamour on too? »
«No, I have worn a glamour my whole life. It will be a long time before I use it again. I am Draco, okay, I look like a girl, but I am Draco»
Pansy and Hermione just looked at him.
«I am a hermaphrodite Veela» he said again. «Sure you have heard about them Granger»
«Yes I have, how interesting, why did you use a glamour to hide it? »
«Because I was afraid of what happened to me. No one ever told me. It was not until me and Harry got together I tried to read about it. Actually I did not want to in case I was forced to choose a gender. I could not do it»
«You and Harry are together? When did you become gay? » Hermione looked at him.
«I could ask you the same» He answered with a raised eyebrow. She just grinned and said;
«Me and Pansy starting dating around this time last year.»
«I thought you were with Ron? »
«No, I don't like him that way. Since you can be with girl Draco, guess you are bisexual»
«Yes, I am» He smiled.
«You changed side? Why»
«Long story, but my whole family are on Voldemort's side. He is my grandfather, I will take over after him» He told her everything that had happened the last week.
When he was finished, they were in front of the Marvolo Manor. Harry walked out of the carriage and helped the three others out. He took Draco's hand and showed them all into the Manor. They came into the hallway and walked to the living room.
«This is the living room, this is the public area. I have my own wing. I have a living room there, we can go there after Tom have been here and talked to both of you, particularly you Hermione. We need to know which side you are on» Harry said.
«I am on your side Harry, after what you told me about what Dumbledore have done I can't stay on his side, but I would be pleased if I could remain kind of grey. I can't kill anyone» She said.
«That is ok» A voice from the door said. «Miss Granger, Miss Parkinson come along, we have a lot to discuss, and Harry, please come to my office after dinner»
«Yes, Tom»
