Thanks to: My faithful reviewers

And if you have any questions, review and I'll try and answer them in the next chapter!

And any derogatory terms towards gays or any other minority are simply for the effect of the story. I myself am Bi, and so are almost all of my friends, so the terms are in no way the way I feel towards said minorities.

And...to the chapter!!!!!!

Oh my God...

Hermoine's P.o.V.

I was so glad when Harry finally came to me and was going to tell me what was up with him. I knew it was serious if he had kept it from both Ron and me for that long. And then Pansy came over and announced to the whole school that He was gay...and was with Malfoy. By the look in Harry's eyes when she said this, and the way he looked at me after that, I knew that's what he had been planning to tell me. And then that bitch cast that curse on him, making him scream in pain like that...

Of course, Draco came to his rescue. I had been to paralyzed with the mixture of fear and shock that my best friend was gay to do anything. I accepted it immediately, I mean, its not like he had a choice in the matter, and I wasn't one of those girls to obsess over him. I loved him yes, but as a brother. Ron was my boyfriend, and I loved him more than anything. Draco carried Harry to the hospital wing and I ran after him, Ron right behind me.

We stayed there for a bit, and then went back to the common room..There was really no need for us in the wing anymore. Ron sat on the couch and pulled me into his lap. He gently played with my hair as he talked to me.

"So, you found out, huh?" He asked.

"What, that Harry's gay? And with Malfoy, of all people? Yeah." I replied.

He smiled softly and kissed my neck, "And what's your opinion on the matter, Love?"

I smiled back, "I accept it, of course. He didn't have a choice whether or not to be gay, now did he? And if he loves that little ferret, well, I bless them both, and I hope they're happy together. God knows Harry deserves to be happy after last summer..."

Ron nodded and sighed. "Draco got attacked last night in the commons. My guess, the homophobic Slytherins. He was tied up, unconscious and shaking when they found him. And he wouldn't tell who it was. He's been given his own room, somewhere near here, I think..and that's where Harry is. He's allowed to stay there for a while to make sure Draco's alright."

"He got attacked?!" I exclaimed, in utter shock, "Both of them have been attacked for what they are. Why can't people just see past their being gay and see the real Harry, and..the Draco that he loves?"

Ron kissed me softly and looked into my eyes. "Because their stupid. No one wants to see differences. It scares them. Now you, my beautiful Hermione Granger, should go to bed. It's getting late."

I laughed as I kissed him back, Alright my handsome Ron Weasley, but only so long as you go to bed too. And maybe we'll see Harry tomorrow so I can again tell him that I accept him."

Ron nodded and we both got up. He kissed me again before we both went upstairs to bed. I couldn't sleep though, so I sat on the window ledge and stared out at the sky, lit up by the waning moon. The full had been just a day or two ago...when the werewolves stalked the school and The boys had managed to get attacked. I sighed and crawled back into bed, disgusted at those who would harm people for the sole reason of their sexuality. I finally fell asleep..dreaming of the horrors that had passed, and possibly would come again.

A/n: Ok, it's a short chapter, I know, but deal with it! Lol, I'll have a longer one up soon.

And I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while, not only did I get severe writers block, but I also got grounded for something I didn't do. :-/ But I used my boredom to get a new chapter up! Yay? O.o
