Chapter Two
"So, it would appear that you two are together." Hermione said calmly, a slight smile gracing her features. Harry and Draco shared a small smile before nodding in unison. Harry pulled the blonde Slytherin into his arms and contentedly nuzzled his nose into Draco's neck, Draco letting his head loll back onto his lover's shoulder. Hermione's smile grew as she watched the two former enemies interact. Ron, however, stood his mouth wide open and bearing a striking resemblence to a guppy fish at feeding time. However, when Ron had shaken himself from his stupour he began to laugh, it began as a slight chuckle and progressed to an all-out belly laugh which shook his entire being. Hermionie, watching her friend's behaviour also began to giggle, soon joining him in his uproarious laughter.
"Do you think we made them go insane love?" Draco asked as he titled his head up to face his lover. Harry smiled down at the boy in his arms and pulled him tighter against his body.
"I'm not sure baby, although this is going better than I imagined. I thought Ron would be attempting to tear your head off at this point, not laughing off his own." Harry said with a wry smile. Draco smiled falsely in return, worry evident in his eyes. Noticing this Harry turned Draco around to face him and kissed his lover lightly on the lips. "What's wrong Dray?" Harry asked moving aside a lock of hair that had made its way into Draco's eyes. Draco lowered his gaze and a slight blush made its way across his face.
"You've given up a lot for me Harry, you could lose your friends and it's all because of me. I'm not worth it Harry." Draco placed his hand lightly on Harry's chest before sighing deeply.
Harry pulled Draco tightly to his body and kissed his love deeply. "Draco, you are worth it. I'd give up everything for you, you're my everything. I love you more than words can say and I'd give up my life for one moment with you. If my friends can't accept that then they aren't worth having. I love you Dray, my Dray." Harry said firmly ghosting his fingertips over Draco's features. A tear fell from Draco's eye and a beaming smile appeared.
"I love you my Harry." Draco said nuzzling his cheek into Harry's palm.
"You guys are so cute!" Harry and Draco heard breaking into their little world. Hermionie was grinning madly, her exclamation having caught Draco and Harry's attention. The couple noticed Ron and Hermione regarding them with matching expressions of wonder, Ron's being more subtle than Hermione's. Ron's face broke out once more into a massive grin and he chuckled lightly.
"Ok Ron I have to ask, what is so damn funny?" Harry asked tightening his arms around Draco once more. Ron stopped chuckling, but the smile never left his face.
"It's just there's something I've been meaning to tell you for a while." Ron said cryptically in a tone of voice that was intended to drive a person crazy wondering what they were talking about.
"What?" Harry and Hermione asked simultaneously.
