~Chapter 14~
~Can I draw you~
The day before Christmas and Harry, Draco and Damien were hanging around in the Great Hall just playing wizards chess and munching on Chocolate Frogs. Or Harry and Damien played chess and Draco munched the frogs. Damien ordered his queen to take out Harry's king-side bishop which Harry had left wide open. Damien smiled victorously, but Harry just grinned.
"Check mate." His queen moved six paces diagonally and cut off the head of Damien's king.
"You tricked me!" Damien pouted. "It's not allowed to cheat."
"I didn't trick you." Harry rolled his eyes heavenwards. "I, compared to what you do, play tactically. My sweet innocent Damien..." Harry smiled softly. "You have to think further than your nose. Plan more than one move at the time."
Damien smiled. "I think I just suck at chess." He laughed. "But innocent I'm not. You cannot accuse me of that."
Harry bowed slightly while sitting down. "I will never make that mistake again."
"I'm out of frogs." Draco showed them an empty box. "Can we go to Hogsmeade and get more. I'm sick of watching you two smash each other's bishops and horses or whatever. Can we please get more sweets?" He sounded like a child.
"Sure," said Damien and magically packed away the chess board.
The three boys walked to their dormitories to get their thick woollen cloaks. Then they headed down to the village.
~ ~ * ~ ~ ~ ~ * ~ ~ ~ ~ * ~ ~
A couple of hours later the three of them arrived at the castle again. Draco was completely high on sugar and the other boys were laughing their heads off from the ridiculous things he said and did.
"I didn't even know you could dance, D," said Harry between laughs. "Or that you can sing your own theme song."
Damien burst out in laughter again. "Not a very good theme song I must add," he croaked.
"Hey! Don't mock my theme song!" Draco sounded like an insulted little child. "I like my theme song."
This made the other two laugh even harder.
The clock in the Great Hall struck her four ding-dongs, and annonced the time of day.
"D?" Harry faced his boyfriend.
"Mm-hmm?"
"Don't you have an appointment with Snape about... Well, now?"
"Shit! Uncle Severus will bite my head off!"
"Uncle?" said the two darkhaired Gryffindors.
"Yeah... Well, he's not really my uncle, but my godfather. I've always called him uncle though." Draco shrugged and smiled.
"Okay." Harry smiled. "Why haven't you told me that earlier by the way?"
"I don't know.. Just haven't come up I guess, but can we discuss this later? I have to go or he will kill me, godson or not!" Draco grinned and ran off down into the dungeons. Harry and Damien headed for the Gryffindor Tower. When they got up there they found the commonroom deserted. There were a few younger Gryffindors who also stayed at the castle over the holidays, but none of them were there.
"I'm just going up to the dormitory to get some stuff. Will you light up one of the fires while I'm gone. It's not that it's cold I just like lit fireplaces." Harry smiled.
"Sure. I think they are quite cozy too!" Damien smiled back at Harry who turned and disappeared up the stairs to the boys' dormitories.
When he came back down he was carrying his sketchpad and pencils. Damien was on his hands and knees on front of the hearth, trying to light a fire without using magic.
"Don't you know any fire spells, Damien?" Harry cocked his head to the right.
"Yeah, but I'm sick of using magic for everything. My dad always does. He never, ever does anything manually. Only magically. I like doing things the Muggle way." He smiled and turned his attention back to the fire.
"I understand." Harry grinned and sat down on a sofa by the hearth, and watched the other boy. At last Damien was able to light the fire and sat down next to Harry with a triumphing smile playing on his lips.
"You draw. How cool," said Damien when he saw Harry's sketchpad.
"Yeah, I do, and I was wondering if I could.... Ehhh... Can I draw you?"
"Off course! I don't mind! Go right a head." He placed a fire spell on the fire to keep it burning.
"I thought you didn't like using magic for stuff like that..." Harry raised one eyebrow at Damien.
"Not really, but if I'm going to be drawn I can't run and keep the fire burning every five minutes, now can I?" The half-blood smiled.
"No. Of course you can't!" Harry laughed.
"Told you. How do you want me? I'm usually a top, but for you I'm happy to switch." Damien grinned.
Harry turned red, then pulled himself together. "Just sit like you usually do. And smile. I want to include your fangs." He smiled.
"Sure." Damien sat back in the corner of the sofa, relaxed and smiled teasingly at his fellow Gryffindor.
Harry started with the frame of Damien's face, the curve of the shoulders and his strong neck. His pencils captured the basic of the vampire's soft hair and features next. Harry's eyes were fixed upon Damien for a long while. Their eyes met before Harry shifted his eyes back to looking at the pad. This time the tip of the pencil turned the blank space into Damien's eyes, nose, lips, and fangs. Harry took his eraser and fixed one of the fangs which was a little longer than the other. Then Harry added some details to the hair of the drawn halfblood. One lock of black softness had strayed down in front of Damien's left eye.
'He should never brush that away,' Harry thought and took a deep breath. He started working on the black robe that Damien wore open over a red muggle shirt. He only sketched it to get the basic of it, because he knew it would take long to make the folds in it perfect. He used the opportunity to study Damien's face. 'He's perfect', he thought. 'I love Draco, but Damien's perfect...'
Harry used about half an hour on the process of getting the sketch of Damien finished.
"You can move now. I have what I need in this sketch." Harry put his pencil on the table next to them.
"Can I see?" Damien leant towards Harry to see the drawing of himself.
"Sure!" Harry smiled and leant in direction of the other boy as well. "What do you think?"
"It's perfect! And my fangs! They don't look that cool - or sexy - in the mirror even!" Damien grinned and tilted his head upwards. At the same time, Harry turned his head towards Damien and their lips met. They both hesitated for a second before they began to kiss deeply. Arms flew up around Damien's neck and pale hands with long, slim fingers cradled Harry's face. Their tongues swirled around each other in a passionate dance and their hands gently stroked the other's body. Harry moaned softly. The muffled sound woke Damien up. He quickly pulled away from Harry.
Damien hid his face in his hands. "Oh no..."
Author's note: I know this is a short chapter, and I meant for it to be longer, but then I realized that none of my chappies have been cliffhangers! *Laughs evilly* The next chapter is very much on the way! Thanks to all who's reviewed my story! It means so much to me! *Giggles*
