Chapter 10: Truth be Told
Draco's eyes glazed over slightly as he stared into Harry's face. He was silent for a moment, so that Harry almost thought that Shadow's potion hadn't worked (who could he ever doubt me?!) and then his mouth parted slightly and a soft whisper escaped his lips, "Always."
Harry's heart leapt into his throat and before he could stop himself he pulled Draco into a passionate kiss. But before it was even a true kiss, Draco pushed away, a disgusted look on his face as he wiped his lip with his sleeve. "What the hell was that Potter?!"
"I - I - you -- " Harry stammered. He didn't remember? Harry's heart now did a full sink into the pit of his stomach.
"I didn't do anything Potter! I don't love you to answer your question now get out of my dormitory!"
Tears welled up in Harry's eyes. "You said you loved me!"
"I did not!" Draco screeched back outraged. "I just said I didn't!"
"But before that! You - you said always!" a tear now leaked down his cheek. Why did he have to do this? He mentally kicked himself for ever falling for that stupid Slytherin. "Why can't you just remember?"
Draco stared at him a silver-blond hair fell in front of his red anger stained face. Harry reached over to tuck it back into place but before he could Draco swatted his hand away. "Don't touch me!" he shrieked, outraged. "I don't know what you're trying to prove her Potter, but it's not going to work. I don't love you so now get out!"
Harry stood beside him, staring into those lovely grey eyes that were now so full of hatred, as much hate was in his eyes as love and confusion in Harry's green one. Draco lifted a hand and pointed towards the door. "Out!" he repeated, with great finality to his voice.
Harry willed himself not to let any tears out. 'Please tell me this is all a crude joke - this isn't real, it isn't real!' But it was. With a final sigh of resignition, Harry once again stared into those lovely orbs.
"Fine, but before I go -- " he then pulled Draco in towards him again and their lips meet in what Harry suspected to be the last time. He didn't try to take it any further, but just parted slowly but still quickly and turned on his heel and left the room.
Harry stormed through the Slytherin common room, almost knocking over several people who stood crouched outside of Draco's dorm door. He wondered how much they had heard before quickly reminding himself that he didn't care. It didn't matter to him anymore, he just wanted out.
As Harry reached the common room entrance it slid open and there stood Shadow a wide grin on her face.
"Harry!" she exclaimed, a look of concern coming over her face (one of the few, I feel I must point out). "W - what's wrong?"
But Harry didn't answer, just pushed around her and fled down the hall, unable to hold his tears in any longer.
****
A/N: I know, I know I'm horrible. but I promise things will look up better in the future for Harry. I guess I should add angst to one of the categories aye? It is rather angsty. Draco's so stubborn? Don't we all hate him? Please review and don't hate me just cause I'm trying to fit into Malfoy's character. I promise things will look up better for Harry, whether in the form of Malfoy, or possibly that secret admirer who sent him the note on Christmas covers mouth suddenly oh god I've said too much!! Just review!
