Consent
The sixth year Gryffindors and Slytherins were half way through their potions lesson when little Framey strutted in and brandished a fragment of parchment under Snape's rather large nose.
"Professor Sinistra sent me to you sir." Little Framey said.
"I am quite capable of reading Mr Frame, thank you very much." Snape spat with a snarl. "Now just sit over there, be quiet and don't touch anything."
"Aye sir." Framey chanted with a mock salute before sitting in the seat that was indicated. Snape looked as if he were about to hex little Framey before his attention was turned to Neville who had melted yet another cauldron.
"Oh not again Longbottom!" Snape cried exasperatedly as he cleared the mess with a wave of his wand. "Ten points from Gryffindor for your incompetence, you clumsy fool." Neville seemed to shrivel with embarrassment and sunk low in his seat trying to hide his reddened face from the rest of the class.
Whilst Snape's back had been turned, little Framey had written a message on the board that proclaimed 'Crabbe smells'. There was some poorly stifled laughter from members of the class – mostly Gryffindors. Little Framey smiled smugly before adding the words: 'It's true!' The class – minus Crabbe and Goyle – momentarily erupted into fits of laughter but it soon stopped as Snape swooped down towards little Framey in a very bat-like manner.
"I thought I told you not to touch anything!" Snape screamed as he gripped the arms of the chair that Framey was sat in, bringing his face within an inch of his. Daniel Frame faked a look of horror before pulling a crucifix and a clover of garlic from within his robes and pretended to use it to ward off Snape. A few titters and sniggers echoed around the dungeon and Snape's eyes flashed dangerously. Snape stood up straight and his fingers twitched as if he were flirting with the idea of strangling the boy before him. "Ten points from Gryffindor!" Snape snapped. Daniel rolled his eyes and muttered something along the lines of "how predictable".
"And detention." Snape said sinisterly. Little Framey shrugged his shoulders in indifference.
"With Professor Trelawny." Snape continued as a smirk crossed his face.
"What?" Little Framey asked snapping his head up.
"Until Christmas." Snape said. Little Framey's eyes widened in horror and Snape, to everyone's surprise, smiled. "Class dismissed," he said as the bell rang. "Draco, a word please?" Snape asked as the class scurried out, Little Framey looking like he wanted to drown himself.
Once the room was empty save for Draco and himself, Snape indicated for the blonde teen to sit. Draco sat with a tingle of curiosity buzzing in his stomach. Snape conjured some tea and offered Draco a drink to which he politely accepted.
"You and Harry seem to be getting along." Snape commented as he stirred his own tea.
"So do you and mother." Draco said as he cringed at the memory his friends had refused to erase. Snape choked slightly on the mouthful of tea he was just drinking before he collected himself and propped his elbows on the desk and bringing his fingertips together.
"Well, yes." Snape admitted. "As a matter of fact we are. Narcissa is a wonderful woman."
"She's the best." Draco said before taking a sip of tea. Snape nodded his head in agreement at the statement.
"That she is, Draco."
"Sir?" Draco asked. "Exactly what is it you wished to discuss with me?" Unless Draco was mistaken, the potions master's trademark pale cheeks had just turned pink with embarrassment.
Draco watched as the older man rummaged through his drawers before producing a small velvet box. He opened it and showed Draco what was unmistakably an engagement ring; a very beautiful and expensive looking engagement ring.
"Oh sir," Draco said as he placed a hand over his heart. "This is all so sudden." He continued in a voice that was dripping with sarcasm.
"As wonderful as you are Draco, this is not intended for you." Snape said impatiently as he snapped the box shut. "Well?" Snape asked imploringly.
"Well what?" Draco asked in confusion.
Snape rolled his eyes before he replied with a huff, "Do I or do I not have your consent?"
"Consent?" Draco asked as he furrowed his eyebrows.
"Consent! It means permission, approval, assent, your blessing. Am I getting through that blonde head of yours at all?" Snape yelled in agitation.
"What do you need my consent for?" Draco asked, "I'm not the one you're asking to marry you." He pointed out.
"Look, Draco," Snape began in an explanatory voice. "I've always loved your mother and you are like the son I never had and if it is against your wishes for me to marry your mother, thereby becoming your step-father, I will not ask her. If, however, you are willing to welcome me into your family I shall of course be delighted. But without your agreement…" Snape trailed off.
"Sev, it's be great if you married mum and I'd be honoured to call you my step-father. Just, lock doors and use silencing charms. And for goodness sake use protection." With those final words, Draco departed to join his boyfriend for dinner.
"Hey babe." Harry greeted as Draco sat opposite him. They were alone eating in the room of requirement. This was the only solution they could think of that would enable them to eat together, since Draco couldn't stick Ron's eating habits at the Gryffindor table and Harry refused to sit at the Slytherin table.
"Don't call me babe." Draco complained as he took a bite of his meal. Harry just rolled his eyes before he trailed his foot up Draco's leg. "Harry, I'm trying to eat." Draco grumbled as he pushed Harry's foot away. Draco looked into Harry's eyes and saw a dangerously intense sparkle of lust that he wasn't ready for. Harry began to sensuously lick his lips before the table and food disappeared and a kind-sized bed appeared. Draco looked from Harry to the bed and gulped; he wasn't ready for this.
Harry pulled Draco towards him by his tie before he nibbled at his earlobe and removed the garment from around the shorter boy's neck. Draco stood still, trembling slightly as Harry begun to work on unbuttoning both of their shirts. Once their top halves were naked, Harry carried Draco over to the bed and laid him down before straddling him.
"You're gorgeous Draco," Harry breathed as he admired his boyfriend. Draco lay limp, very afraid but at a loss of what to do. Harry, who was now trailing kisses down Draco's chest and gently tweaking his pink nipples, didn't seem to notice the other boy's discomfort.
In next to no time, Harry had stripped Draco and himself and they were now entirely nude. Harry hissed with pleasure at the skin-on-skin contact, completely oblivious to how Draco was shaking, not with pleasure, but in fear.
Harry latched his mouth onto Draco's throat and sucked as he trailed one hand up his creamy thigh. Draco's muscles tensed and as one of Harry's fingers came to play at his entrance he began to cry and started to struggle underneath the Gryffindor.
"Stop it! Harry stop it please! STOP IT!" Draco screamed as he began pounding his fists against Harry's chest to get him off. Harry pinned Draco's wrists to the mattress to stop him from hitting him and tried to calm him down as he looked into his frightened eyes.
"Hey, hey. Draco it's ok. Just calm down. What's wrong?"
"Get off me Harry." Draco choked out through his tears.
"What?" Harry asked confused.
"I'm not ready for this Harry. Please just … just get off of me." Harry didn't move. "GET OFF OF ME!" Draco demanded as he continued to cry. Harry moved off of him and lay beside him instead. When harry made to touch his shoulder, Draco flinched and moved away from him before hastily pulling his pants and trousers back on.
"Draco, what's wrong with you?" Harry asked as he pulled his own boxers on and forced the blonde to sit next to him on the bed.
"I'm sorry Harry," Draco sobbed. "I'm just … I'm just not ready for that level of intimacy yet."
"Why not?" Harry asked, resting a hand on Draco's thigh. "Don't you love me?"
"Of course I do." Draco assured him. "I'm just not ready for sex yet."
"Draco," Harry said, "If you're worried about the pain, I promise I'll go slow and be as gentle as I can." Harry was now cupping Draco's cock through his trousers and massaging him through the fabric. "You just have to trust me Draco."
The blonde shifted away from Harry's ministrations and hurriedly threw his shirt back on.
"Draco please," Harry moaned as he pulled Draco toward him, making sure that the blonde could feel his raging hard-on. "I love you and I just want to be with you."
"Harry, I love you too, more than anything. But I'm sorry, I'm just not ready for this."
"Do you really love me Draco?" Harry asked. Draco nodded as he tried to brush his tears away. "Then prove it." Harry said dragging him back to the bed and pushing him down. "Let me make love to you Draco." Without awaiting a response, Harry gently inserted his tongue into Draco's mouth and removed his shirt again. "Gods Draco," Harry sighed. "You're so beautiful, I want you so badly."
"Harry please don't make me." Draco begged, tears spilling from his eyes again. Harry nodded in defeat and moved off of his crying boyfriend. "Thank-you." Draco said as he pulled his shirt back on. Draco grabbed his tie and made for the door.
"Draco!" Harry called desperately, causing the blonde to turn. The Gryffindor cast his eyes to the floor in shame. "I'm sorry."
"You could at least look me in the eye when you say that." Draco whispered. Harry squirmed uncomfortably before crossing the room to meet Draco.
"I'm really sorry." He said, looking Draco right in the eye. "I should have stopped the second you asked me to. I don't even know why I … I'm really sorry. I was aroused and … out of control and I had no right to pressure you like that. The last thing I want to do is hurt you. I love you baby. And I'm sorry I'm such an asshole."
"Forget it," Draco said with a shrug. "It … it doesn't matter."
"Yes it does." Harry argued. "I shouldn't be so … forceful. If you're not ready then that's fine. I'd wait forever for you. I'd never want to force you into something you don't want."
"Harry," Draco said, surprisingly calm. "I said it doesn't matter. You're a teenage boy with raging hormones and sexual desires and hey, I'm a brutally hot guy. Who wouldn't want to nail me?" harry smiled weakly but still looked guilty. "I love you Harry and I know you'd never intentionally hurt me. So let's just forget about this hey? Why don't we go for a walk around the lake or something?" Draco asked as he stroked his boyfriend's cheek.
"Yeah," Harry agreed. "I'd like that."
"Me too." Draco said with a grin before giving Harry a light peck on the lips.
Harry felt like a royal shit but he couldn't help but smile as Draco voluntarily slipped his hand into his, seemingly uncaring if anyone saw. They didn't talk much as they circled the lake, but Draco kept stroking Harry's hand with his thumb, reassuring him that everything was ok between them.
When dusk began to fall, Harry and Draco headed back inside. Harry walked Draco to the Slytherin common room before giving him a swift kiss goodbye. As Harry began to make his way down the corridor Draco called his name. Turning to face him, Harry was met with the most deadly serious expression he had ever seen upon Draco's soft features.
"Don't ever question my love again." Draco told him in a strictly business and no nonsense tone. Harry flushed slightly before nodding. Draco bade him goodnight before whispering the password and disappearing into the common room and out of sight.
As Harry made his way back up to Gryffindor tower, he was so absorbed in repeatedly calling himself an idiot, that he did not notice the chandelier almost crashing down on his head, or the girl that Sirius scared who magically prevented it from hitting him and magicked it back into place without using a wand or muttering a single word.
Ok, so firstly, I just want to apologise for the HUGE wait for this chapter, but I really didn't have a lot of time to put it up. We've started college and have had sooo much work to do it's unbelievable. Also I've been ill... so yeah apologies. Secondly, we're sorry to stray from the Harry/Draco storyline, but we thought Seamus deserved some happiness.
