Untold Desires Elfman

Summary: Draco invited Hermione over to the Slytherin dormitories. And as she returns, its crunch time in Gryffindor as Harry waits up for her.

Sorry for not updating in ages, thank you to all of my devoted fans. I've discovered the wonderful world of habbohotel. It's a wicked chat room, but we're not here to talk about chat, were here to write and read. And as I quote randomly from Shakespeare I shall write onwards. "Angel and Ministries of grace defend us"

Anyway, there's a ting bit of Harry/Ron slash so beware. I shall mark when it starts with a **** and end it with a **** so anyone can skip it if they want.

Chapter Six: Crunch Time

As Hermione walked up the steps towards the portrait of the "Fat Lady", she reflected on the last 2-3 hours of her life. They had been one of the, no, the greatest experience in her life. Her hair was ruffled, and standing on end, her light lipstick was ever so slightly smudged, and her clothes looked torn at.

She had to shout drowsily at the Fat Lady to make her wake up, so she could give the password. After she had entered, she heard the Fat Lady swear and walk off.

As she looked around she noticed Harry sitting by the fire asleep. She smiled; he looked kind of sweet lying there. She bent over his head and whispered in his ear

"Harry". Harry woke up with a start and fumbled around.

"What, where's the earthquake" he said stupidly. Hermione giggled

"Harry wake up, you've been waiting here all night" she said. Harry stood up and rubbed his eyes, and as his eyes focused he saw Hermione. And as he noticed Hermione's hair and clothes he realised, she had borrowed his Invisibility Cloak, and everything formed in his mind, and remembered everything.

"Rough books where they" he asked. Hermione blushed.

"Err...I got caught" said Hermione swiftly " I had to run"

"For three hours?"

"Erm." said Hermione. Harry looked disgusted.

"You.and Draco." Harry couldn't dare utter anything more, so instead put his hand a foot away from each other and swayed them around "what about Ron?" Hermione looked confused for a second then contend on.

"OH HARRY" she said panicking "We didn't...you know, you know I wouldn't".

"What, Malfoy too slimy for you" he said with a sneer. Hermione looked hurt

"Harry" she said "Its nothing to do with you who I go out with".

"You're going to have to tell Ron," he said.

"Why?" asked Hermione

"Come on Hermione, use your brain. He fancies you remember, he has for ages" said Harry.

"Well.I.I cant tell him, it would.hurt him", said Hermione.

"Better you tell him then anyone else, what if a rumour gets through and he finds out, he'll be mortified"

"I'll tell him later" said Hermione, and she slowly walked away to the girl's dormitories.

Harry knew she wouldn't, so he headed for the boys dormitories. He trotted over to Ron's bed and put a silence charm on his four-poster, just in case he started crying. As he though this he began to feel sorry for Ron, it was bad enough that she would fancy someone else, but to fancy Malfoy, yuck.

He poked his head through the curtains and was glad to see Ron was wearing pyjamas. He looked at Ron and shook him gently awake.

"Ron" he muttered.

"Mhhhmmmm" said Ron. Harry sighed and shook Ron more violently

"RON" he hissed. Ron was up with a start

"What?" he said.

"Ron, its me Harry" said Harry. Ron looked around and saw the glum face of his friend; he looked at the clock and saw it was 12:10.

"What you want," he said moaning.

"Its about Hermione" Said Harry. Ron sat up

"What about her, Is she okay?" said Ron startled.

"Well before I tell you I think you better relax a bit" said Harry.

"What is it?" asked Ron. Harry drew a breath and told him.

In the girl's dormitories Hermione turned in her bed and hugged her pillow, smiling and muttering "Draco" under her breath.

"WITH MALFOY" boomed Ron. Even with the silence charm Harry was still sure people would hear.

"SHHHHH" hissed Harry.

"You must be kidding", said Ron disbelievingly.

"I'm not, I've realised it for ages, but when she slapped him I though it a mistake. But she admitted it downstairs, she'd borrowed my Invisibility Cloak and she came up all ruffled" said Harry. Ron said nothing, he just spluttered and sniffed. After a while a small singular tear fell down Ron's eyes, several more followed and after a few seconds he was weeping torrents. But he didn't bawl, his breath came in short shudders but he didn't make any other noise.

**** Harry looked at Ron helpless and did the only thing he could think of, and held Ron on his shoulder. Ron leaned in and wept on Harry. Sharing all his grief with him. Harry stayed with Ron and tried to rock his sadness away. And as he did he found he enjoyed it slightly. The warmth ness of Ron on his shoulder felt oddly fulfilling, and for some reason there touch just seemed to invigorate Harry, and he felt happier.

And as he did Harry began to think. He had never questioned himself before about anything, but now for the first time he did. And whether he felt all right and calm about these new feelings. Having never experienced love he didn't really think of what was right and wrong, just what made him happy. And he knew that this did. And as Ron snivelled into Harry's shoulder Harry leant on Ron's head and snuggled Ron's hair.

At first Ron didn't know what was going on, and simple let what was going on happen, it was calming him down and that was all that mattered at the moment. And then he looked up and saw Harry face, snuggled up to his, with his eyes closed and his mouth smiling. As soon as he saw that he tore away from the embrace.

"What are you doing", said Ron spluttering. Harry opened his eyes and looked around

"Me?" he asked.

"No" said Ron sarcastically "The bloody tooth fairy with a candy stick rammed up her ass". Harry looked confused

"I was comporting you" he explained, "You were crying, I was trying to calm you down".

"You were also enjoying it", said Ron bewildered. Harry looked confused and hurt. He knew that what they had been doing felt right to him, he never considered that Ron might not of enjoyed it.

"Are you.gay Harry?" asked Ron a bit scared. Harry thought for a second.

"I don't know", said Harry honestly.

"Okay, lets ask it a different way, did you enjoy that?" asked Ron. And as Ron watched Harry think, he realised that even however much it frightened him that had actually enjoyed it himself. He'd never had a girlfriend and never ever thought he might be happy with another boy.

"Yes" said Harry plainly. Ron looked into Harry's deep green eyes.

"Me too" said Ron, and he leaned on Harry chest.
