Chapter 12
The Conversation, Number Two
Fred'n'George sighed as they headed toward the Gryffindor. "Are work is never done." They said as they went about their way.
Draco was struggling to get out of his handcuffs. Harry left his wand just out of reach last night on the nightstand. He tried to get it, but everything time he did, his arm would be snapped back. So now he returned to banging his head off the baseboard, and talking to himself.
"How can I be so stupid? I'm such a dumb fuck!" he said as he hit head off the board.
"Really? I always heard you were a good fuck." Fred replied walking toward the bed.
"Well at least he admitted to being stupid." George said as he moved to Harry's bed.
Draco growled as he said, "Get out." The twins laughed as one sat on either side of him.
"Don't think so mate."
"Whatya do now?"
"Just go… Please." Draco sighed as he tried to move them, but was snapped back into place. "Stupid, ruddy handcuffs."
Fred smiled as he placed on hand on his shoulder. "Listen here Draco and listen good. The only ones who know you are here are us, Harry, Ron and Hermione."
"Harry's pretty pissed at you, so he'll probably leave you here till after classes. Ron can't stand you, so he'll probably do the same. And Hermione we'll only let you loose to make sure you get to class on time." George added.
"Besides, do you really want her to see you in your boxers?" Draco flushed as he shook his head no. "So, mate, guess you're stuck with the two of us."
"So what did you do?" George asked.
Draco sighed as he looked at the two of them. "Do you really wanna know?"
"Of course." They said in unison.
"I didn't want to come out of the closet with Harry. I like it in here, it's safe." He said as he lowered his head in shame.
"Ahh! We should've known."
"Of course, it is so blatantly obvious that Harry is in love with you."
"Why we will never know. But he does."
"The question is, Draco, do you love him?"
"I don't know… I think so… At least I'm pretty sure I do." Draco replied.
Fred sighed as he replied, "There is no such thing as 'I don't know, I think so' when it comes to love. You either do or don't."
"Yep. There's no in between when it comes to matters of the heart." George replied.
Draco cocked an eyebrow as he asked, "How the hell do you guys know this?"
"No digressing off the topic." Fred said as he pointed his finger at him.
"Yeah, that's for us to know and you to shut yer mouth about it."
"Well…. Do you or don't you."
"Yes or no mate?"
He sighed again as he said, "I just don't know."
The twins sighed heavily as the unlocked the cuffs. "Well, think of it like this Draco. You can either spend the rest of your life living in your father's shadow, where your father uses you to get more power. Or you can spend it with someone who really loves you, and who I'm pretty sure you love back. You could be so happy Draco…why are you willing to walk away from it?" Fred said sadly.
"You better make up your mind soon mate. Harry won't be there forever, and if you think you can just keep him till your done with him your sorely mistaken. We love him like he was another brother and we watch out for our own. So in short you hurt him we hurt you…ten fold." George said as he gave Draco a stern look.
"The snitch is in your field now…don't make the wrong choice"
"Good luck." The two boys left Draco to himself.
Draco sighed heavily as he pulled his knees to his chest and rested his head on top of them. "What do I do now?" He whispered softly, the thoughts of going to class that day gone.
