Love Potion Parties: The Yule Ball
Harry found no joy during the Yule Ball. He hated it. He hated every minute of it. The dancing, the festivities, even the girls dressed in beautiful gowns... he was unable to relax and enjoy any of it. Maybe Harry just was not ready for this kind of party. He was young for his year, and was uncomfortable with every part of it. Trying to ask a girl to the dance was horrifying to him, but now that he was here, now that he was supposed to dance and have fun all night...Harry wished he were anywhere else.
And what made it feel worse was that Harry seemed to be the only one not in love with the Ball. Harry sees all his classmates, all of his friends, and they are having the time of their life as they danced and laughed in front of him. Harry could not do it. Not yet. He just sat with Ron, both letting their sexy dates fly away to other people's arms.
And just as Harry had given up, just as Harry had resigned himself to talking with Ron about giants all night, he saw her approach him.
"Come on Harry..." Parvati Patil said. There was Harry's date, looking attractive in her pink Sari.
"I'm...I'm sorry Parvati? I thought we were...where are we..."
"Please Harry..." Parvati went on. Her annoyance with her lackluster date was clear, "The told me to get you...the other champions. I don't really know, but Krum and Hermione found me. They told me to bring you to the trophy room... it's like...I don't know, a private party between the champions and their dates."
"Oh..." Harry mused. No one had told him about this. The thought of being around Cedric and Cho though, as they laughed and held each other...Harry could not think of anything he would hate more right now, "Oh well they didn't tell...honestly I don't really want to-"
"But I want to go." Parvati said in an exasperated sort of way, "Please Harry, just...this only happens once, and you promised me...just please..."
"Okay, okay..." Harry went on, "I do owe you. Besides, it might be...I don't know...important. I might learn something I need to..." Harry looked at Ron. It was going from bad to worse, leaving his friend to go and be around the other champions. But Harry knew that if they wanted him to be there, if they were finally reaching out to him...Harry should at least try to brave this night out a little bit longer.
"Hurry up, Harry. Let's try not to be late." and with that, Harry followed Parvati through the throws of dancers. Harry kept his head down, hating the feeling of not fitting in as others danced and rocked around him like they knew the secret of having fun. Being around Parvati was even worse. She was really hot. Beautiful dark skin, a pretty face and as Harry looked at her slender yet supple backside Harry liked what he saw. Harry hated that he had no idea how to talk to this girl. Harry felt like a failure, that he had a beautiful girl as his date, and there was nothing he could do to make her happy. As Parvati led Harry to the trophy room, he just wanted to get this night over and done with.
Inside the trophy room Harry heard laughing. There they were, the older three champions and their dates. They were all having fun, and being close and intimate with their dates on a big, comfortable couch.
The first thing Harry saw was Fluer Delacour. She was, without a doubt, the sexiest person Harry had ever seen. She was a tall, blond haired, curvy sex goddess. Beautiful in every way, with long legs and firm beautiful tits. Harry was embarrassed to say that every time- every time- Fluer passed Harry in the hallway, Harry could not help but check out Fleur's tight sexy ass. She had absolute control and men were literally falling to their knees for her. She had her hand on Roger Davis' knees, her date, that was staring his perfect veela goddess down. She was incredibly sexy, and Harry could not help but notice that Fluer's real attentions were less on the cocky Roger Davis, and more focused on Cedric and Krum.
Victor Krum was lounging, like a king on the far side of the couch. In his chest lay Hermione Granger. She was his beautiful date, to the surprise of the entire castle. Hermione looked stunning, which made Harry confused and aroused when he glanced at his best friend. In her stylist pink dress, that showed quite a bit more skin then Harry had ever seen her in, Hermione looked like a princess. All night the smart and bossy Gryfyndor was locked in tight embraces with her burly date, and now she was running her hands all over his muscular body. Hermione was in heaven, it was the best night of her life thanks to Victor Krum.
And then Harry's eyes went where he did not want them to go. Between the two other champions, Cedric Digory was chatting with the others, with a sexy Cho Chang at his side. Cedric looked confident and happy as he always did, and Cho was eating up every word. The object of his heart, Cho was beautiful and tantalizing to Harry. He was the most beautiful girl in Hogwarts, with her beautiful face, her fair skin and sexy curves. Seeing Cho made up, in her tight white dress was too much for Harry. She was all he fantasized about, all he wanted, and he was looking at her enamored with his rival Cedric Digorry. He had her laughing and smiling and Cho never took her eyes away from the older boy. What Harry would not give for Cho to look at him that way.
"Ah! He's finally here!" Fluer let out in her seductively thick accent, "As I promised Victor, now that all four champions are here, we can finally begin."
"Yes! Good!" Krum shout out, in his thick accent, as he saw Harry come close to the couch. He grabbed Hermione's waist as he gave Harry a sneering smile, "Yes! This is now the real party! All four champions! All four champions and all of their...beautiful women...this is how we must...", Hermione then sensually whispered something into Krum's ear. She was likely helping him remember an english word he wanted to use, "...yes...yes, This is how we must celebrate our tournament now!"
Harry was confused by all of this. Did these older champions really want to party with him? There had been lots of animosity between them, was this their way of embracing Harry after all this time?
"Whatever Victor...whatever, let the boy be part of this...after all, his date is so charming I am glad that we waited" With that kind word, Parvati gave a big smile to the beautiful Veela, "Just get the potions ready, Roger...I'm so excited, I want it so badly..."
Just then, Harry realized that there was a large caldron in the center of the couches. Inside the caldron was a pink potion. It was bubbling over, the way potions do when they are just ready to be cooled.
"Yes...Oh I love this..." Roger Davis sputtered out. He was greedily looking around the room, around at all of the pretty girls, "I'm so excited, this is going to be smashing..."
"Actually...before we start..." Cedric spoke up, "Harry, I was wondering...I was wondering if I could talk to you for a moment? Just a quick word?"
Harry looked confused. He had no idea why everyone was now giving this potion such focus. And while Harry did not really want to speak with Cedric, he figured he should get it over with. Though they were rivals in most things, deep down Harry knew Cedric was a decent person.
"Well...sure, I suppose. I mean, unless Parvani needs-"
"Just go Harry!" Parvati sat with the others. To Harry it seemed like Parvani understood what was going on more than he did. She, like Cho, looked a bit nervous, and the girls were breathing heavily. Yet to Harry, it almost looked like they were excited. As Harry stood up, he saw Cho looking at the potion. She was breathing heavily, her ample cleavage heaving as she did. It almost looked to Harry, like Cho was going to moan...
"Sure, okay, Cedrice." As Roger stirred the potion, Cedric and Harry left the group and went to a secluded part of the room, so that no one could hear them.
"So, um..." Cedric began, "Harry listen, you were really decent to me in the first task. And I just, well you're a good chap and I know that you grew up a muggle, so I was...I wanted to give you a heads up about all this...if you wanted that is..."
Harry stayed there, and stayed silent. Harry was too embarrassed to admit that he had no idea what any of this was. Cedric chose to be kind, and explain without making Harry admit to his ignorance.
"So when we get older...by we I meen Witches and Wizards...well...blimey, I've never had to say it out loud before like this...well in order to have fun...you know, like, really good fun... we sometimes use...Potions."
"Potions?" Harry asked. He realized just how far out of his element he was now. As of now, all Potions meant to him was a class at school, one that he hated at that. Harry never even realized that potions were actually used in the wizarding world.
"Yes, Harry... " Cedric went on, glad he pulled the younger boy aside, "Yes we use potions. And in school, between friends and...and well you know, couples...normally at the end of fifth year, and then in year six...well, lots of us like to have potions parties. More specifically...we have parties where everyone takes love potions..."
"Oh..." Harry was surprised to hear this, the meaning not fully sunken in yet, "I didn't...I didn't even realize that love potions were a real thing..."
"Yes! Yes, well for us, they are..." Cedric went on. He was acting a bit more paternally to Harry now, proud of himself for doing the right, Prefect-esque thing, "And well, it's of course, very very wrong to use a love potion on someone that does not want to fall in love with someone else. In fact, you can end up in Azkaban for it...but for friends, for people who want to...experiment and try new things...for people who want to make memories and have thrilling nights and all that...well, they can use love potions in order to make those experiences...you know...better..."
"I don't..."
"It changes your mind Harry...the love potion makes you want to be with whoever it's assigned to. It enhances all of your feelings, and it makes you want to please and...and sometimes worship the person you fall in love with...it's an incredible feeling, and us older students, once we're able to brew it ourselves, well it's thrilling being totally in love with someone else for a few hours...you end up doing...you might have an incredible time if the potion is working right..."
"Oh..." Harry mumbled, "I think I...I think I get it...and I suppose, I mean, the teachers, the grown ups...they don't know about these parties..."
"Well no, Harry. I mean not really. It's not like they don't know it goes on. I mean, they all did it in school, and they might still do it at home...so yeah, what we do is simple. As long as you trust the people you are with, you all brew the potion, you all take one potion each, and for a few hours, you are…well, you completely give yourself to that person. You trust them, you want to...This is weird to talk about it, but do you get it now Harry? Do you understand what we're doing here?"
Harry looked stunned, but finally it all sort of came together for him. They were each going to take a piece of that potion, and for a few hours...for a few hours they would all be completely in love with a different person. Harry then imagined how he felt about Cho, about how excited he was every time he saw Fluer and her friends, and this potion, it would make two people completely give in to those desires... Harry got excited thinking about the prospects of this now. The fourth year suddenly realized that he would be able to be with someone, and someone would be in love with him. As Harry thought now about what that means, Cedric continued to talk.
"Now there's no shame if you don't want to do this with us Harry...I mean, you're only a 4th year. Most of us didn't start experimenting with love potions until the end of fifth year. And most don't have a party like this until 6th year, once we've all had time to learn...learn things about ourselves, and to learn how to use magic to...Arch, sorry mate, I know this is awkward, but the others, they wanted to invite you...well, Krum did. Honestly, Fluer sort of didn't, but Krum made a big deal that you would be a part of it...and then I wasn't sure if it was a good idea, but you might really like it... and I just wanted to check in so you know what this whole thing is... So there's no...there's no shame if you'd rather not do this. You're a good chap, Harry. I just don't want..."
"Its...it's okay Cedric..." Harry finally spoke. It was dawning on him now. The possibilities...the endless possibilities, "So just...just tell me...do we all take a potion...I mean, am I going to be with Parvati...In love with her or..."
"Oh, right Harry...um, well, every party is different. For tonight, we are doing a random partner with the people you see here. Fluer will write our names down, they randomly connect with one other person, and that's who we... match up with- Oh! And this one all the fellas will be with ladies, and the ladies will all be with chaps. Besides Fluer, who likes both boys and girls, the rest of us are straight, so I...I don't know who you might end up...in love with. But it will be one of the four ladies. It'll either be Parvani, Or Fluer, or...What's your friends name? Hermione Granger right? Yeah so it might be Hermione..."
"Or it might be Cho..." Harry blurted out.
"Well yeah...yeah it might...it might be Cho." Cedric said, "The idea...the idea for the party is that since you're in love with the other one...since you'll want your partner so much...well, as long as everyone trusts each other...then you know...then everyone has a great time...a great and powerful...you know, experience."
Harry was only half listening to Cedric now. The enormity of this was just sinking in. He, Harry Potter, was about to fall in love, and have a girl, a beautiful girl fall in love with him. Not only that, but looking at Krum, Fluer and Jordan...It looked like falling in love might be the least of it. While they might be called love potions, it was also a way to give everyone permission to...to hook up with someone else.
"And...and Cedric...just how...just how far are you...what I'm trying to say is can you...are you supposed to..." Harry was trying to ask Cedric how far do people take things once they're in love. It was awkward asking Cedric of course, but Harry really needed to know.
"Well the first time I was at a Party, the first time...my partner and I, well, we went all the way. Most...most people go all the way here Harry. There are no consequences, other than knowing you were with that person once the party is over...You need to understand Harry, the potion, the motion makes you desire the other person so much, that you end up doing anything they want. Anything at all...both of you, you just don't have the power to resist the person you are in love with. Now sometimes, the more dominant person will end up giving the other person orders, but you're both so high on the effects of potion...you don't really care. You will just end up doing whatever you can to make your partner happy...So, so most people, well, they do it all Harry, they tend to do everything they desire until the Potion runs out...it's...it's sort of the point..."
Harry's mind kept coming back to Cho Chang. The sexy brunette had been haunting his dreams for over a year now. And those dreams were not tame. Some of those fantasies involved Cho doing things...debasing things to prove how much she loved Harry. Harry in some dreams did those things for a commanding and dominating Cho Chang. The thought that Cho would do those things for Harry...more than that, the thought Cho might desire to do those things for Harry...
"...And like I said Harry, Krum insisted we get you. I guess he liked your flying...and it makes sense, I mean, normally you only do these parties with people you really trust, like people from your house or someone you're dating. But, you know, Dumbledore wants us all to become friends, and Krum and Fluer are both a bit wild, and Jordan was obviously into it...and well...I promise Harry, I promise I made sure Cho was okay with this...this isn't her first party, so she was okay to try it out. Fluer told Parvati about it, and I think her and...and Granger, well I think they knew about these parties from other people, so they're both excited to do a love potion party early...but like I said Harry, it's up to you. No matter what you chose to do..."
Harry looks at Cho. There was a chance that Cho Chang might fall in love with him. There was a chance that Cho might kiss him tonight. There was a chance that this sexy, unattainable woman would beg Harry to do all kinds of naughty things to her...There was a chance, a one in four chance that Cho would be so in love with Harry, that Harry might be able to make all of his fantasies come true, right now, in the trophy room.
And if he was not paired with Cho, the other three women were just as good. They were all incredibly sexy, and Harry wanted them as well. The idea of being connected to Fluer Delecour for a night was intoxicating. Harry looked at the blond goddess, she was churning the brew, the pink light of the potion radiating her beautiful, creamy skin. The thought of sleeping with her, just being allowed to touch her…with one potion, Harry could end up fucking the hottest, most unattainable girl.
And if he did get Parvati, even though deep down Harry knew that he did not love her, or really want her that much, it was still an intoxicating thought. Getting to be in love with Parvati, getting to have the girl worshipping his every desire, it was a passionate thought as well. Harry failed to impress her as a date, but maybe, maybe with some potion between them, maybe Harry Potter could show Parvati Patel the night of her life. After all,
The only one that gave Harry any pause was of course Hermione. They were best friends, and before this night, Harry had never seen Hermione in a sexual light before. Granted, looking at Hermione tonight, Harry realized that he would never be able to see Hermione again without thinking about how sexy she was. The way Hermione had glamorized herself, the way she had commanded the attention of everyone at the Great Hall, it was sexy. Hermione was sexy, and if he took the right potion, Harry and Hermione would be unable to resist each other. Harry was confused, and vulnerable, and very horny, and the thought of being able to explore Hermione's body, free from consequences, was something that Harry now wanted.
Without saying much else, Cedric and Harry make their way back to the giggling group. Harry appreciated what Cedric did, but was also ready to try this out. It was scary to him, but unlike the ball itself, here he could let the potion do all the work for him. He looked again at the attractive people around the couch. They were all excited for what would come next. The younger people, like Cho and Parvati were excited, as this was a bold new experience for them. The older people like Fluer and Krum were excited, since they knew how much fun this was, and they were all eying each other, excited to see who they would be paired with.
Harry saw Jordan and Fluer, as they wrote down the names of all of the people in the trophy room. They looked like they were the ones running this, Fluer was clearly a popular and magnetic person, and Jordan was all too eager to prove to her that he could get this done. Cedric was whispering into Cho's ears, most likely being reassuring and protective to his beautiful and sexy date. Cho kissed Cedric. It was hard for Harry to see the kiss, but he knew that if this really worked, Cho might actually be his. All of Cho might soon be his... And Krum now had Hermione on his knee, holding the sexy Gryfyndor by her slender waist. Hermione was pretty much bouncing with energy. Harry was not sure if Hermione knew what was about to happen, but he could tell that she was excited. She had been treated like a princess as Krum held her, and she was willing to take things a little bit further now. Only Parvati and Harry were separate at this point. Just as Harry had four sexy women to choose from, Parvati was eying up the other boys around the room. They were all handsome, with lots of experience, and it was making Parvati excited that she was with them. She was holding the hem of her Sari, almost unable to wait to take it off.
"At last, it's finally done!" Fluer called out. She threw her hands in the air, her sexy features on display for all to see, "It will put us in random pairs the moment we all drink the potion. Lets see if you Hogwarts boys know how to really party...Cedric, it's your home, anything we should say or do before we all... fall in love?" Fluer gave the Hufflepuff a deep look with her breathy voice. It was sort of clear to Harry who Fluer was hoping she would become paired with.
"Oh, well..." Cedric went on, "...I guess, I guess not. Here at Hogwarts, when we do Potion Parties...anything goes really. Let's keep it in the trophy room, obviously, as you wouldn't want Filch or Snape finding us...and I guess, I guess just have fun, and-"
"Arch..." Krum interrupted, "Just go already! I want a party...I want party now!"
"Yes Krum..." Fluer lifted her wand into the air, "Yes, let's party, let's party like champions deserve."
With that, the pink potion rose into the air. It passed a sorting spell that Jordan and Fleur had created, and in a blink, all of the written names appeared. Then, the pink liquid spread eight separate cups. As Harry looked at the reactions of the group, everyone looked like the spell had worked perfectly. In front of each of these eight members, there was a potion that would bind the drinker to another person until it wore off.
Harry then followed everyone else's lead. They all took their potion, they all looked around at the sexy group gathered there, and they all drank their love potion.
Harry, amazed that this was even possible looked down at his potion. He did not know what was about to happen, but for the first time in a long time, Harry Potter was excited to find out.
He gulped the delicious potion down in one shot.
To Be Continued
(A/N: Thanks for reading, and the next chapter is coming soon- lots of smut in that of course! I wanted to put this chapter out early since there is a lot of room to work here, and I wanted to get some feedback, since there can be multiple versions of what happens next, and if you encourage me in the reviews and DM's, I might try a few different pairings. My ending is, of course, going to be dark, so be warned, but also, if someone gives me a good idea of what they want to see, I can add it as a possible ending. Hope you enjoyed it!)
