CH1. Do You Accept Me?
Harry was sitting on his bed at the Order's headquarters waiting for the next day to come. Tomorrow he would board the train that would take him to school. It was his final year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but this is not what excited him. He had finally told his friends that he was 100 completely Gay. This not what had shocked them what truly got there knickers in a twist was when Harry told them who he was dating. The one the only Draco Malfoy, the person who had given them all hell for the past six years.
"But…why?" Ron had asked
"Because I needed him." Yes the beginning of it all. Sirius had died just three months before and Harry was still having nightmares about it. HE had finally found sanctuary with his than archenemy Draco Malfoy. At first they would just meat in an empty classroom and Harry would spill out everything that was going through his mind and making him hurt. As the nights progressed Harry started to get certain feelings for Draco and it seemed that Draco deloped these feelings to. Because after them secretly meeting for about a month Draco gave Harry a kiss.
So there relasnship started as the days, weeks, and months passed they went from pecks to snogging to rolling around half naked in the room of requirement. They still talked alotduring those late nights. Harry stopped having the nightmares and the world went on.
"How did you need him?" asked Ron. Pulling Harry out of his trance.
"Because he's the only one I know who will tell me the truth and beat the shit out of me until I believe it."
"What truth?" asked Ron
"That it's my fault that my parents, Cedric and Sirius are dead."
"What? How can you believe that?
"If I had never been born Voldemort would have never tried to kill them. Ok so I couldn't really help my parent's death, but I'm the one who suggested that both Cedric take the cup I'm the one who had the dream and was thick enough to believe it. Look at it that way. People who I care for always end up being hurt, or killed.
Ron and Hermione sat there stunned. They had never thought that much about it.
"But…how did that help you?" asked Hermione.
"For once in my life I wasn't The-Boy-Lived or 'golden-boy'. I'm sick of people expecting so much from me. I don't want to be in the limelight. I just want one year where the most exciting thing is quittiditch. I just want Voldemort to leave me alone this year. I'm truly happy for once in my life. And for once I would like to be The-Boy-Who-is-Living."
Ok Harry we get that. Really we do it's got to be tough always being in the limelight. But why Malfoy? You too didn't act different last year."
"We didn't want anyone to know. If people found out I was dating my archenemy and gay I would be even more famous. At the end of last year Draco and I decided to each tell someone. He's telling Basil and I'm telling you two. I wanted to tell you earlier this summer but I didn't know how. I was afraid that you might not accept me for who I am I really like him maybe even love him." Harry finished. He was close to tears now. The thought of losing Draco, his Draco, it was just too much.
"Don't worry Harry." Said Hermione. Harry was just to cute sitting there close to tears. She didn't especially like the fact but she didn't have the heart to say so. "Ron and I are fine with it. Aren't we Ron." she said kicking him.
"What? Oh yeah Harry of course we are did you really think we would care? Just one thing don't star hitting on me now that your gay."
"Yeah of course not your not that good-looking any way."
"What how can you say that? Way to put me down Harry see if I ever try to cheer you up again" said Ron now wrestling with Harry.
Hermione left the room muttering something that sounded a lot like "Boys".
