AN: Sorry for not posting on tuesday. I'll post twice this time. It's PRIDE week here in Toronto and i'm out celebrating freedom of sexual preference!! YEAY!! Oh, and btw, the story was my first Harry and Draco ever ever written so if it sucks, i'm terribly sorry.

-------------------------

Draco stepped back from the kiss. Looked at Harry and the only thing he could think of was "Your not new to this are you?"

Harry looked at Draco confused, "What?!"

"Your not new to this. You've done this before."

"No I havn't. I have never kissed anyone before."

"Then how the bloody hell are you so damn good?"

Harry shrugged "It was all instinct I guess. I mean I just did what I thought should be best."

"Dammit Harry that was amazing."

"Really?"

"Damn straight really. If your like that when you kiss what are you like in bed?" asked Draco with a suspicious expression.

Harry turned bright red but refused to answer Draco.

"Don't worry Harry, I'm not trying to imply anything. At least not until your ready."

"Not until I'm ready? What do you mean?"

"I mean, I wont force you into anything you don't want to do."

"What? Your making it sound like we're going to be doing this again."

"Of course we are. What did you expect Harry? That I'm going to let you escape? Damn that was the best kiss I ever had. What are you hiding behind that 'Golden Boy' image?"

Harry's eyes dropped. "You just called me 'Golden Boy' Draco."

"Yes and?"

"Don't' call me that."

Draco smiled at him "I know. I just wanted to make you angry."

"And WHY did you want to make me angry?"

"Because your not giving me what I want."

"Draco, we can't start anything. You know that."

"Why not? Dammit, I'm not letting anyone else take you. You might as well just let me have you."

Harry was shaking his head "Draco, look, I told you before. I'm going to die. I'm not going to be able to be around forever. I'm not going to hurt you."

Draco crossed his arms across his chest "Fine, then I will just have to torment anyone who comes anywhere close to you. You know Harry, I am an incredibly jealous man. I don't let others have what I want. And I want you, even if they come NEAR you, I will tear them apart."

"Draco"

"Harry"

"Draco, you can't. I love you, isn't that enough?"

"No. It's not enough Harry because I need more love from you. I'm not getting enough love from you. I need to be able to hold you when your hurt, I need to be able to go home from my missions knowing that your going to be here waiting for me and only me."

"It's not that simple. What if we end up on the battle field facing each other?"

"Harry are you stupid? Do you think I'm going to kill you or something? If we end up on the battlefield facing each other the only thing I would be doing is snogging you until the world ends. The rest of the world can die for all I care, you're the only reason I even joined the Order. If it wasn't for you I would be less than empty."

"Draco-"

"Harry just let us be. Don't you dare tell me that you didn't feel that between us. Look me in the eye and tell me Harry Potter that you don't want to kiss me again."

Harry couldn't do it. This was what was missing in his life. No one had ever been able to do this to him. Sure, Cho's smile made the world a little brighter but Draco's lips made life worth living.

Draco stepped up to Harry and took Harry's face in his hands turning his head so Harry was now looking at Draco. "I love you and you love me. Tell me that you'll be there when I come home."

Harry swallowed "I'll be there when you come home."

Draco bent over and kissed Harry again. This time Harry responded by pulling Draco's body closer to his. He could feel Draco's body up against him and they fit perfectly together. This was nothing like anything he had ever heard of before. Sure he had heard Ron, Semus, and Dean talking about the girls and guys they've snogged and how well the forms fit together but when Harry and Draco were together, it was like their souls had become one.

Draco stepped back from Harry and pulled out 2 necklaces that had been hidden under his robes. They were exactly the same except what was hanging off the chains. It was one heart split into 2 pieces. It looked almost like a broken heart but each half of the heart had a wing attached to it.

Draco looked at Harry, "I know it's totally not my style, I personally prefer snakes but it reminded me of the first time we met."

Harry's eyes went wide open.

Draco saw his expression and smiled "Yes Harry, the first time when I saw you in Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions store at Diagon Alley I fell in love with you."

Harry was speechless.

"You amazed me Harry. There was something in your eye when I saw you in walk into the store in the mirror. I watched you come into view from the window and I was hoping and praying that you would walk into the store I was in. And you did. That was my first tug in my heart. Then, when you looked around the store as if you were lost that was the second tug at my heart. Harry, every expression you make sends my heart soaring higher. Every time you speak it makes my knees weak. You were absolutely beautiful."

"Draco, we fought all the time."

"You know how hurt I was in the store when the only time you even opened your mouth to speak to me was to defend Hagrid? How was I supposed to know you were so attached to the bloke? Anyway, when you left the store I knew that you would never talk to me unless I did something.

"So, I made it clear to everyone that we were enemies. I made everything think that I hated you but it was only to get your attention. I needed to speak to you. Do you think you would ever have spoken to me if we weren't arguing? You were the famous Harry Potter, do you know how many people try to speak to you each day? Even from Slytherin. The girls, even some guys. They all speak of you. You were going to be a challenge for me. No one had ever refused to be nice to me before. Of course many were nice to me because they were scared of me but not you. You had something that no one ever had. And that only made me fall harder for you."

"Draco, you mean all those years of yelling at each other could have been friendship?"

"No, that's not what I was saying. I would have been afraid to be your friend."

Harry raised an eyebrow and almost bursted out laughing.

"Yes Harry Potter, I admit it, you were the only one who ever made me afraid before. Not even my father scared me as much as you did.

"If I was going to be nice to you I would have had to be careful about my moves, about my words. I was scared shitless every time you were nearby."

"Funny Draco, you never looked it."

"That comes with years of training from father. Malfoy's to show no emotion. But you changed that with me. And Thank Merlin my father taught me how to sneer."

Harry didn't say anything. He didn't know what to say. Not even he could have ever guessed that Draco Malfoy was scared of Harry. Not because of Harry's magic, power or reputation but because of Harry.

"Anyway Harry, here." Draco unclasped one of the chains and helped Harry put on the necklace. "Now when we are together the heart will be one. The heart will be complete like how I feel when you are in my arms."

Then something hit Harry as he remembered how Hermione had reacted earlier. "She knows!"

Draco arched an eyebrow at Harry. This was not the response he was expecting.

"Draco, you told Hermione didn't you?"

Draco smiled at Harry "Yes- wait no! Actually she guessed. She was very quick at it too. Our 2nd year and she knew. She found me out in our 2nd year."

"What? But she never said anything and the way you guys acted towards each other was like you both hated each other, yet she still stayed away from us earlier."

Draco couldn't help but chuckle at his naive lion. "That's because we are both stupendous at acting."

"What?"

"We talked about it for hours whens he confronted me and we came to the conclusion that it would be best to lay this on you later. There was too much to be expected from you so much for you to do. So, she decided to play along. Every time I called her a mudblood, she knew I didn't mean it. I told her everything. She was my little secret keeper. I trusted her with my soul because it was too early to let you in."

"Damn, she's a hell of a good actress. And she kept this from me for so many years."

"Well, she's very trustworthy." Draco rolled his eyes "WAY to Griffindor if you as me." And Draco smirked.

"Anyway, not even I noticed you that early."

"Yes, I know, although it breaks my heart to admit it but I know. I know what kind of life you had to live. I could see it in your eyes before Hermione even told me about it. Every year it was the same, Hermione told me everything about you. I knew so much about you through Hermione. Didn't you ever wonder why I always picked on you the most?"

"I always just thought you were being a git."

"Well, despite the fact that I'm a git, and a hell of a good looking one at that, I still sought out for you attention. I thought by ruining your reputation over and over again would make it easier for me to get into you. It was supposed to be easier for me to be friends with you. I wanted so much for you to run to me, not Ron. When you were hurt and when you needed someone, you always had someone there for you. Someone always cared about you. That wasn't supposed to happen. You were supposed to be hurt when no one wanted to speak to you or when people were scared of you that you might be the heir or Slytherin. I wasn't angry because I wasn't heir, I was angry because you weren't coming to me. You weren't coming to my arms."

"Draco, it would have been a pretty drastic change if I did."

"But I didn't hide from you Harry. If you didn't notice, I hardly said anything about you when everyone else was claiming that you were petrifying the half bloods. I just kept to myself."

"Again, I thought you were angry, like you said, about you not being the Slytherine's heir."

Draco gave a sigh, "Harry, although we cannot change the past Harry, we can take charge of the present and maybe live until the future."

Harry liked the idea. He smiled at Draco and took hold of the heart hanging from his neck. "That would be good."

Draco took Harry's hand and started making his way upstairs to the room Hermione and Ron were in but after a moment Harry stopped. Draco turned to look at him.

"Still, I am destined to die."

Draco turned to face him again. "Harry Potter, we are ALL destined to die."
