Summary: (In Harry's 7th year…but when I started this, I hadn't read the 5th book, so it's Harry's 7th year w/ no info from the latest book. If I changed it, everything would be screwed up! ::Sob:: So just pretend the 5th book doesn't exist!) When Draco breaks up with Harry at the holidays, the Boy-Who-Lived is devastated… some Christmas present! He immediately turns to the first person who will take him in, Seamus. He, being the Irish Pixie that he is, "comforts" Harry… with his lips! Harry, being the naïve teen that he is, decides to go public that he's over Draco and is dating his fellow Gryffindor. Draco, out of jealousy and hate, decides to publicly date our favorite "Slytherin plot twist", Blaise. When Harry sees them together, he is crushed, as he has obviously just harbored his feelings about the Slytherin who stole his heart. What will everyone's favorite hero do when his heart is torn and the only person who can make him stop crying is the person who made him cry in the first place?

*Chapter 3: An End and Two Beginnings
Seamus took a careful step towards Harry's bed, trying not to be seen. Anger shown in his eyes and his hands were balled in sweaty fists. He slid over to his bed, unnoticed, wondering what he had gotten himself into.
*
Harry slid his arm around Draco and pressed his cheek into the comforting arm that held him. "Draco…Why now? Why did you come back now?" the raven-haired boy mumbled.
"What do you mean?" Draco asked, breathing in the sweet smell of the Gryffindor.
"How can you go from breaking up with me and breaking my heart…to holding me on my bed?" Harry mused.
"What did that Irish Pixie do to you?" Draco changed the subject.
"What?" Harry locked eyes with his past love.
"Why are you crying over him?"
"Seamus wasn't the one who made me cry," The blonde looked confused. "You hurt me, Drake-love…More than you can ever imagine…" He pulled his gaze from Draco's pleading look.
"I…I…I'm sorry…" The Slytherin mumbled, dropping his sight, causing his beautiful blonde hair to fall in front of his magnificent grey eyes.
"Don't be. You must've had a reason to break up with me…" His voice sounded questioning, as he pondered why his happy boyfriend of 2 years had indeed broken up with him. "It doesn't matter, I gue---" Harry's words were stopped by frustrated lips. Draco Malfoy's lips. The kiss was exhilarating, and even Seamus felt the emotion that rushed between the two.
The Gryffindor pressed his hands against the taller boy's chest, pushing him off. "What do you think you are doing?!"
"Kissing you," Draco murmured, eyelashes fluttering swiftly on his passion-flushed cheeks.
"Why? Why are you doing this to me?! I…I…I'm over you!" It took much of what the Gryffindor was to say this, and Draco recoiled in shock. Harry used the rest of his soul to pull himself away from the Slytherin. "Please. Leave."
The blonde nodded and stood silently, turning his back and beginning to walk away. He couldn't believe when he heard his lost love's voice behind him,
"Draco, wait!" He spun around, half-wanting Harry, half-hoping there was still a chance in the world that he could have him. The onyx-haired boy held out his winter cloak. "You forgot your cloak…" Draco sighed and grabbed his possession (A/N: No, not Harry! ::Sobs:: ;_;), rushing out the door.
Harry laid back on his bed and sighed. "Why me…?"
"'Cause you're so irresistible, Har'!" Seamus said sarcastically, a glare on his face. The smaller boy sat up suddenly at the sound of his boyfriend's voice, smashing his head against the bed frame.
"Seamus…how long were you here?" he asked, rubbing his throbbing forehead.
"Long enough to see you hug and snog your ex, Harry! Your EX! As in, he broke up with you! Why do you do this to me?! Just go back to Draco! You know you want to!"
"Didn't you hear me? I'm over him" But, Seamus had already turned his back to Harry and walked downstairs to the common room.
"God, what have I done?"
*
Draco sunk down into a couch in the Slytherin common room, closing his eyes and feeling the heat from the fire rush over him. "Oh, God…help me…"
"Are you that religious, Draco?" His eyes snapped open at the sound of Blaise's voice.
"No, Blaise…" He sat up. "How are you?" He rubbed his eyes playfully and stood up.
"Alright, how you been?" Blaise walked over to Draco and gave him a quick hug.
"I've been better…" The blonde mumbled.
"Oh, why?" Blaise mewed.
"Nothing…at least nothing that involves you…"
"If it bothers you, it involves me…I care about you…about…your well-being…tell me…What happened? Does it have to do with that git, Harry?"
Draco raised an angered gaze to meet Blaise's equally giddy look. "What did you call him?"
"I called him a git! He's no good for you! You deserve better!" Draco's eyes looked ready to spill over in tears. "Oh, it does have to do with him doesn't it…? Sorry…"
"No, you're not… You believe every word you said…That means you aren't actually sorry…And yeah, it has to do with him…"
Blaise sat down on one of the couches and waited for the blonde to continue. When he didn't, the dark-haired Slytherin mumbled, "Wanna sit?" Before Draco knew what he was doing, he had sat down and was telling his friend everything,
"I broke up with him…yesterday…He's already over me…dating that Irish git, Finnigan…" The blonde Slytherin gushed on for a bit more, before ending his rant with, "I can't believe he's dating Seamus!"
"I think you should do the same," Blaise said, matter-of-factly.
"You think I should date that Irish Pixie?!" Draco snapped.
"No, I think you should move on…" Blaise leaned over his friend's thin body and planted a passionate kiss on his lips.
*
Harry stepped quietly down the staircase to the Gryffindor common room, keeping an eye out for Seamus. He noticed a Gryffindor leaving to the hallway.
"Seamus! Wait!" The Irish boy stopped, but didn't turn around. "Seamus, please, just hear me out." Harry ran over to the other boy and grabbed a hold of his hand.
The smaller Gryffindor turned his boyfriend around. Seamus wouldn't meet his gaze. "Talk then, Harry."
"Seamus, you heard me in there…I…I'm over him…I've moved on…I…I…love you…" Harry brought his hand up to Seamus' jaw-line and raised his head to lock eyes with the other Gryffindor. He placed a gentle kiss on the taller boy's mouth, flicking his tongue on his lips. Draco had used this trick on Harry after their first date (A/N: ::Sarcastically:: Ma Drake-koi doesn't move fast, no!! ^^) and Harry had never thought of sharing such an intimate gesture with anyone else.
He pulled away from his boyfriend's kiss and Harry leaned up against his chest, snuggling up against the nape of his neck. "Love you, too, Har'," Seamus murmured.
*
Draco pushed Blaise off of him, standing up. "What are you DOING?!" he spat, turning his back to the other Slytherin.
"I'm showing you that there are other fish in the sea. Ones that aren't going to run to the first person who comforts them!"
"That's what you did…As soon as you 'comforted' me, you made a move!" Draco said, pacing.
"No, I care about you…all Harry ever did was take you for a ride!"
Draco spun around and glared at Blaise. "What I had with Harry was special! We were perfect for each other! Nothing could've been better!"
Blaise had a smug grin on his face. "Then why did you end it with him, Draco? Huh? Why did you break up with him if everything was so perfect?"
Draco lowered his eyes and turned his head. "I…I…"
"I'm right, aren't I? Something was wrong…and I can't help that…but I can help you from making that mistake again. With me, nothing wouldn't be perfect…I promise…" Draco looked skeptical. "Go with me to Hogsmeade today…"
"Today?!" 'But, Harry will be there! With Seamus.'
"Yes, today…either that or a month from now, when the next one is…"
"Yeah, I'll go with you, I guess…It'll be fun…y'know…to get out…" Draco mumbled, sitting back down next to Blaise.
"Yeah…fun…" The dark Slytherin smiled and kissed Draco's cheek.
^.^ Yay! Go, me! Finished the chapter in time! Yes, I know, I'm running really behind! I was supposed to have them go to Hogsmeade 2 chapters ago! ^.^ Oh, well! ^.^
Yes, Remus and Sirius will show up (Yeah, Kay! All for you!) next chapter, and Hogsmeade will definitely be there! Thanks for sticking with me! Love you, guys!
