Nothing but the Truth
Parchment 4: Sex Talk, Wrong Leads, and a Secret Plan
PqPqPqPqPqPqP
"You seem different, Harry," Dumbledore's kind voice said pulling him out of his thoughts.
Harry blinked. Damn, he was doing it again. With Dumbledore! Of all people! However, he had to admit, Draco's hot kisses were quite something, it was a hard time not thinking about the beautiful blonde Slytherin. The way he used his tongue---GAH! No stop! No dirty thoughts, bad Harry bad! "Oh," Harry said slumping slightly. "How so?"
"Well," Dumbledore said pouring them both some tea. "I've been talking to you for the past five minutes and you've been totally unresponsive."
Harry flushed. Past five minutes, Harry thought feeling like total shit. "I'm sorry," Harry said placing his hands in his lap. "I've just have some things on my mind lately."
"Hm, so it seems," Dumbledore said smiling warmly at Harry. The zoning out obviously did not annoy him from his student. It showed that the boy might just be finally moving on. "Who is it exactly you are thinking about?"
"Who?"
"Yes, who," Dumbledore grinned. "It must be a very special some one to get that sort of look in your eye. Who is she? Or he?"
Harry flushed. Did…Did Dumbledore know? He could not; Draco and Harry have been very discreet in everything that they did together. "Who do you think it is?" Harry asked, on a sudden whim.
"Ha, touché Harry," Dumbledore said grinning even more under his bushy beard. "I believe, Harry, that you are keeping this secret. Even from the people you hold close."
Harry did not say anything just studied the knots in the wood table beside his chair. He soon began chewing his lip, growing nervous under the kind gaze. If Dumbledore knew, he would not be ashamed would he?
"You are not telling, for you and this person fear what others will think?" Dumbledore asked, but Harry knew off the bat that it was rhetorical. "I understand these feelings, but it is best to tell someone than to let it be found out in the most undesirable manor. You understand this."
"I do," Harry said furrowing his eyebrows and meeting Dumbledore's gaze stubbornly.
"Leo, Harry you're a Leo," Luna's voice met his ears, startling Harry out of his memories.
He had been thinking back to yesterday's meeting with Dumbledore. It unnerved him, but it was comfortable in a way. If anything, he wanted Dumbledore to know that he had found means of relieving the stress. Dumbledore had said himself that Harry should find some sort of lover to help him relax. 'It will give you a reason to get up in the morning' Dumbledore said with a grin and happy twinkle in his eyes.
"I know, Luna," Harry said yawning and looking across the table at the girl sitting there. Luna and he had become best friends. It was all when he admitted the fact he was not interested in girls to Luna. He went to her because she seemed like the only one who would understand. In addition, she did.
Luna cleared her throat, "Leo's search for true love, preferring people with hearts of gold," she said reading from her zodiac book, and grinning at Harry. "Leo's usually tend to pride in themselves for being a wonderful and romantic lover. They love to do romantic things for their lover and have the same in return. Also very good with children."
"We won't have to worry about that," Harry said strumming his fingers on the table.
"Speaking of which," Luna said sitting her zodiac book on the table. "I know who it is you've been swooning over the past two week."
Harry went slightly pale. "Oh? And who might that be?" he asked eyeing Luna carefully. Besides Dumbledore, Luna would be the number one choice for knowing whom it is he was currently head over heels in love with.
"I saw you two kissing outside the other day," Luna sang sighing. "It was so romantic! You two make such a good couple! You're perfect!"
"Lun!" Harry said panicking. "You mustn't tell anyone!"
"I know, I know," Luna said waving her hand. "I saw how you separated so fast when Hermione and Ron were coming. Then, I heard them talking about trying to figure out who it is your zoning out about, and I figured you didn't tell 'em."
"You bet I didn't," Harry said running a hand through his hair. "They'd kill me and him."
"They asked for my help, and I agreed. Hey, do not loom at me like that! I am going to be leading them the wrong way the whole time, Harry," Luna said grinning. Soon she went into a lapse about planning weddings for them and so many other gaggingly romantic things.
"Lun," Harry said, rolling his eyes. "Sush." Lun was Harry's nickname for Luna.
"Aw, J! You know you love all these ideas!" Luna said sighing, then going on how romantic this all way. Jay-jay was her nickname for Harry; it came from his middle name of James. "Forbidden love! So Romeo and Juliet. Hm, I guess Drakey would Romeo…"
"And why is that?!" Harry said cheeks flushing slightly.
"'Cause, something about him screams that he must be in control," Luna said twirling her hair in her fingers. "Anyway, you're handsome, but it's a boyish handsome that makes you the sub in any relationship. Unless the guy was totally girly."
Harry sighed. Luna had a point. Draco may appear fragile, but he was not. "You make it sound as if it's a bad thing," Harry said sighing and slumping on to the table.
"Oh, Jay-jay!" Luna said taking his hand and smiling. "It's not! Being sub is great! Oh, hello Drakey!"
"What!?" Harry said sitting up sharply. Sure enough, Drakey stood there in the doorway blinking at them both. "Draco…Hello…"
"What is she doing here?" Draco asked referring to their 'private' classroom. He began glaring daggers at the happily smiling Luna, jealousy boiling up inside him.
"Lun is helping me with a few things…" Harry said faltering.
"What sorts of things?" Draco asked still very angry at the female presence.
"With you two guy's relationship! Duh!" Luna said the picture of innocence.
Harry looked at Luna angrily. Why the hell did she have to tell Draco that—
"YOU TOLD HER?!" Draco said quite loudly angry gaze at Harry now.
"She kind of found out on her own…" Harry said shrinking back in his seat. "She caught us kissing last Saturday…"
Draco seemed to be calming down. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5… he counted in his head. "You did, huh? You cannot tell anyone! Under any circumstances can you let it slip that—"
"Yeah, yeah, Jay-jay already lectured me," Luna said waving a hand as she had done with Harry.
"Jay-jay?" Draco asked looking at Harry confused.
Harry grinned and shrugged.
"You've got nicknames."
"Yes, haven't you to?" Luna asked yawing slightly. At their blank faces, she shrugged. "It is more of a het thing to do anyway."
"Het?"
"Heterosexual," Harry said feeling slightly like it was his entire fault.
"Oh," Draco said sitting in the chair beside Harry.
Luna gushed. "You two are just so made for each other!" she said happily. "Oh, it is true what they say about Leos!"
Harry blushed. "What do they say?" Draco asked looking at Luna confused. He was not so sure about this girl, he had heard the rumors she was a weirdo. He guessed she was not too bad…but he did not like her around his Harry. Yes, HIS Harry.
"That Leos prefer true love," Luna said grinning happily.
Draco flushed and sat back sighing. He had been looking forward to some good old snogging with Harry…but those dreams seemed to have crashed. "Drakey, when's your b-day?" Luna asked.
"December 8th," Draco said angry. "Don't call me Drakey!"
She smiled, and started flipping through her book. "SAGITTARIUS & LEO - This is probably one of your best match ups. You bring out the best in one another. You both have a very carefree approach to life and love," Luna read loudly grinning wider and wider the whole way through.
Draco and Harry's faces both flushed a lovely shade of crimson. This was most certainly, great that they worked so well. "What type of love does he prefer?" Harry asked leaning closer.
"Let's see…" Luna said leafing through the pages. "Sagittarius lover is full of passion and loves to explore. They can be boldly passionate and full of fun. Do not try to invade their space because they are claustrophobic in nature," Luna said reading ahead some more before continuing, her grin still wide. "They are wild, passionate and adventurous in lovemaking. There are two conflicting sides to his personality. Sexual relationship with one partner for long bores them and they get this urge to move. Sex is great but in fact like sports or a game where they must perform to win."
"Wow…" Harry pouted and looked at Draco sadly. "You're going to just get bored with me..." he said leaning back in his chair and slouching down.
"No, no! Merlin, no!" Draco exclaimed taking Harry's hand, but not before sending a quick glare at Luna. "I would never get bored of you."
"Promise?" Harry asked sitting up a little more.
"Of course," Draco said squeezing his hand, though he had better ways of showing Harry he meant it. Only if that Lovegood girl would leave, he could have this way with Harry and more.
"Ah," Luna said grinning still, a very odd glimmer in her eye. "Here's more on Leo's love life."
"Well, read it," Draco said growing irritated.
"Passions burn in the mind and the body of a Leo lover. They radiate sexual confidence and like a majestic king of jungle, they like to take charge in bed. The Leo lover likes to explore the pleasures of sex," Luna said giggling at the burning face of Harry. "Do not hurt the ego of the Leo lover and instead if possible sing praises. They have to be attached or fond of their lover to enjoy sex. No other zodiac sign can be so majestic and theatrical and grand in lovemaking."
Draco grinned at this. He very much liked the sound of Harry in bed. Harry's face was quite red, he suddenly felt very shy about this whole ordeal. What Luna had previously read was much more...innocent.
"Here's more on Sagittarius and Leos together," Luna said clearing her throat before reading. "This relation will work well, as both are optimistic, positive and take a broad viewpoint. Because both are frank, generous, and open hearted, they can be beneficial to one another. Leo will feel neglected or frets, if Sagittarius is to eager for freedom and independence."
Draco and Harry nodded. Harry had cooled down from before, telling himself that Draco liked the way he sounded in bed. Harry knew this because of the sudden way Draco had begun running his fingers along Harry's thigh. This made Harry shiver, but he tried not too, as not attract Luna's attention. Those fingers felt very, very good.
"Even more!" Luna said smiling. "This is a little more descriptive: There are exciting times ahead for this ardent pair. Self-confident Leo holds the key to unlocking Sagittarius's deeper passions, and their love life is an adventure. They also enjoy travel, meeting new people, and each other's company. Leo loves freedom as much as Sagittarius so there will not be problems with jealousy or possessiveness. Sagittarius has the lightness of touch necessary to cope with Leo's monumental ego. A grand mating."
They both flushed some more, thinking this over. Draco was not sure about the freedom thing. Draco did feel jealous of Harry from time to time…okay every fucking minute of every fucking day when he was not with him. So what?!…He just…missed Harry…
Luna was about to say more before she sat up, and looked to the door. Footsteps and voices were slowly approaching the old classroom door. Draco had already slipped into the corner hiding behind a table standing on its side and large cabinet. Hermione was the one to open the door, Ron peeking over her shoulder.
"Hello, Harry, Luna," Hermione said nodding and smiling at them both. She stepped further in followed by Ron who was looking at Harry's very annoyed face.
"Hey," Luna said waving at them. She had quickly hidden the book about the zodiac under the table, but apparently not quickly enough.
"What's that you got there?" Ron asked pointing at the book Luna held under the table.
"Oh, it's nothing," Luna said waving it around, too fast for anyone to read the cover before slipping it in her bag. "Harry was just helping with my Divination homework."
"Why?" Hermione asked with a slight roll of her eyes, Luna knew it had not directed at her, but the subject period. "You're the best at Divination, aren't you?"
"I was helping her with something she didn't quite get, that I did," Harry explained. "She also helped me with something I didn't understand as well."
"Oh," Hermione said, obviously still suspicious. "Well, Luna I came here because I needed to have a word with you. Do you mind?"
Luna shook her head and stood. She collected the few parchments on the table placed out just for the purpose of incase someone popped in, and walked to the door. She turned and waved at Harry, winking at him, "Bye, Jay-jay! Say hello to Dee, for me!"
As they left, Harry could hear their voices going down the hall. "Who's Dee?" Ron asked. "Yes, who is this Dee person?" Hermione asked as well. "Oh, no one," Luna replied. Harry could just see the grin on her face.
Harry sighed and slumped on to the table. Soon hands came down and wrapped around him. "What's the matter?" Draco whispered into Harry's ear.
"Hermione, Ron, and Ginny are trying to find out who it is I like," Harry answered snuggling back into Draco's arms.
"Oh," Draco said pulling away even after Harry's protests. "That isn't good."
"I know," Harry said pouting. "But Luna's 'helping' them. Do not look at me like that; she is leading them in the wrong direction. Anyway, they think it's a girl."
Draco smiled coming over to kiss the pout on Harry's face. "Radiate sexual confidence and like a majestic king of jungle, hm?" Draco said grinning at Harry's flushed face. "That will be quite interesting."
PqPqPqPqPqPqP
Hermione sighed, looking at Luna trying to figure her out. "So you were really in there just helping each other?" she asked. They had wandered outside and met Ginny there. They were cornering Luna; unfortunately, she did not seemed fazed.
"Yes, that's correct," she said peeling a banana she had stolen from the day's lunch. "But, I figured out this girl is Virgo."
"Really?" Ron said, rubbing his chin. "Do you know which house?"
"No, I only got this out of him 'cause he asked me what a Virgo gal was like," Luna said, mentally grinning. She was good, maybe too good. Silly Ron, she thought evilly, do you not know a Leo and a Virgo will never work.
"That's great," Ginny said happily. "That's about it that we know. Except, I have reason to believe it's a blonde"
"Why's that?" Luna asked eyeing Ginny carefully. Going to have to keep an eye on her, she thought throwing her banana peel away.
"Oh, I don't know," Ginny said flushing lightly. "I just always thought Harry would the type of guy who would like a blonde girl."
Luna laughed. "I believe you're right," Luna said smiling. "I must be off," she left before they could say anymore.
"She knows more than she's letting on," Hermione said with a sigh and leaning against the cool castle wall.
"I agree," Ginny said sighing as well.
"Whaddya mean?" Ron said confused. He thought they were getting the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
The answer was lost in the ringing of the dinner bell. "We'll tell you later Ron," Hermione said before they headed off for the Great Hall.
PqPqPqPqPqPqP
Again, Harry found himself in the presence of Luna in the old classroom. He sat down across from her and looked at her confused. "I want to give you some tips," Luna said smiling happily. "I have some pretty romantic things in this book." She waved around a bright pink book; the title was 'Love, Sex, and How to do it right'.
Harry blinked. Luna opened to a page she had marked, and looked at Harry. "When you first meet up, where does he kiss you first?" Luna asked looking at the book then back at Harry.
Harry blushed slightly, feeling shy. "Uhm, on lips…and sometimes on the neck," Harry said thinking about it a bit more before nodding.
"A kiss on the lips, means I love you," Luna said smiling happily at Harry's flushed face. "And a kiss on the neck, means I want you."
Harry nodded, and Luna continued. "A Sagittarius likes to be kissed best on their stomach, small of the back, and their neck," Luna said checking something over in her book. "Keep that in mind Harry."
Harry nodded again, still a little flushed. "Thanks, Lun, for all your help," he said smiling at his best friend.
She nodded, smiling back. "It's no problem," she said waving it off with her hand. "I promised to help you with your boyfriend when you got one, didn't I?"
He nodded. "Still, thank you," he said smiling.
"No need," she said before continuing to read ideas for Harry out of her book. "Harry, I gave Draco some advice too."
"You did?"
Luna nodded. "Yes, so if he taps you on the shoulder three times, it means I love you," she said smiling. "And three taps on the thigh, means he wants to make love."
PqPqPqPqPqPqP
"Pass the frogs tongue, would you?" Ron said to Harry pointing the disgusting pink mass. Harry nodded and picked it up with the tongs handing them to Ron. "Thanks" Ron said before quickly dropping it in their potion.
Suddenly a finger tapped, once, twice, and thrice on Harry's shoulder. Harry turned to meet a cool but somehow warm gray gaze. "Malfoy," he heard Ron scoff beside him. "What is it you want?"
Draco ignored Ron, and continued staring at Harry. "Can I borrow some of you poison ivy?" he asked raising his eyebrows.
Harry nodded and turned cutting him some off carefully. "Don't you have your own?" Ron said angrily eyeing Draco.
"I wouldn't be over here asking for any if I did, would I." Draco said with a roll of his eyes. He nodded in what he thought as thanks when Harry handed him the poisonous ivy, before turning away and heading back to his own cauldron.
Harry turned back around, cut them some more orchid root, and handed it to Ron. "Who does he think he is? Coming over here, as if he knew we would give him some. Ha," Ron said dropping the orchid root in and stirring.
"Ron," Harry said shaking his head. "We'd have to give him some anyway. He or Snape would take points away from our House if we didn't."
Ron pondered that a moment. "But still," Ron said stirring a bit hard. "Bloody bastard. Thinks he's the greatest in the whole bloody school."
Harry shook his head again and wrote down some notes from his textbook. "It should be done, Ron," Harry said eyeing the potion. "Would you mind putting it in a vile? I have to use the restroom."
Harry headed up to the head of class and politely asked for a pass to the bathroom. Snape eyed him, annoyed as if he always was by Harry's presence. He wrote it quickly and shoved it in Harry's hand.
Harry headed out of class and walked down the corridor to the nearest boy's lavatory. Pushing open the door, he looked around before grabbing a stall doing his business, exiting it and heading to a sink and washing his hands. Soon he heard the door open up behind him, but he quickly disregarded it as nothing.
He turned off the sink and went to dry his hands when he noticed exactly whom it was that entered. There stood Draco smiling at him by the door. Harry blinked, flushed and went back to drying his hands. Done with drying his hands, he eyed Draco curiously. He stood by the door, leaning casually against the wall. His smile was unnerving, along with the glimmer in his eyes, it appeared as if Draco were ready to eat Harry alive.
Harry sighed and headed for the door, which Draco moved quickly to intercept his departure. "What is it?" Harry asked looking at Draco irritated. Secretly inside, he was jumping for joy.
"Well," Draco said raising a hand to cup Harry's face. "I wanted to properly thank you for letting me have that poison ivy." Draco leaned forward, lips brushing over Harry's lips. Harry breathed in sharply.
This was the most public place that Draco had showed him affection. Sure, it was an empty bathroom, but usually they were in the classroom when they kissed. Anyone could walk in and either of them would not have the power of stopping what the boy would see. This, little sensation, made Harry's heart flutter.
"Draco," he gasped as Draco's free hand wandered down to grab his arse. "What're you doing?" He managed to mumble, face turning pink.
"Shh," Draco scolded. "I'm just having some fun. Meet me in the old classroom in your free period this afternoon."
"What? Okay…" Harry said blinking. "Why then?"
"Oh," Draco said mischievously. "You'll see."
Draco pulled away and Harry almost protested but the Slytherin boy shook his head and pointed to the door. Harry nodded getting what he meant before heading out the door. Draco watched him leave before sighing.
He grinned. Harry sure had quite an effect on him. In any other relationship, he would make the other come to him. In this case, it seemed to be both ways. They came to each other. Harry was like a drug Draco could just not get enough of, he was addicting. He continually found himself wishing he was with Harry, and was shocked on a daily bases by the Gryffindor boy.
Everything about the dark-haired green-eyed boy was completely new, and so refreshing. It was like he met a new person everyday, but it always just ended up being the same Harry. He did not know how the other boy did it, continuing to give him this constant high.
Draco headed out of the classroom. Snape had excused him on the fact he was not feeling good, so he would head straight to lunch now. Speak of the devil, the lunch bell echoed through the currently empty halls. Draco made his way to the Great Hall, a certain Gryffindor filling his thoughts.
PqPqPqPqPqPqP
It was finally the last period of the day. When Draco and Harry both had the period off, to do what they pleased. It took Draco quite a while to find out when exactly Harry had his period off. Thankfully, his Prefect abilities included being able to see any student's schedule.
Therefore, once he knew that, all he had to do was find the perfect way to ask him to meet him then. He had known for a week already. He did not know what it was, but he just kept on forgetting to ask the boy. Finally cornering the Gryffindor in a lavatory (of all places) he asked.
He went about the day very light hearted, and positively giddy about that afternoon. What exactly was it Draco was going to do? Well, that we will just have to see. Why? That would be because Draco himself even was unsure what he wanted to do. He was thinking about it all day. It was just before the bell before his free period rang, that he knew what it was he wanted to do.

To Be Continued…?
PqPqPqPqPqPqP
A/N: Ah, the fourth chappie. I did a little bit more in this one, can you tell? I actually involved more than just Draco and Harry! Yay. Be happy for me. I love Luna, so I had to include her. Yes, I made her and Harry best buds. Nothing wrong with that. I forgot to mention it earlier, but Harry had come to Luna when he figured out he was gay. (I mentioned it in this chapter, but I mean I failed to mention it in the other chappies. Sorry.) I hope I portrayed Luna okay…I wanted to make her kind of like me (sorry ::dies:: ) I hope it did not show too much. Now you know who exactly was watching Drakey and Jay-jay make out outside in last chappie.
What else is there? Oh, I got some action going on in a bathroom. Heh, forgive me, ne? In addition, I have a secret plan for Draco! Ah, the glory of cliffhangers, how great is not they? Make any fucking sense? I did not think so.
Longer than the last chapter. Oh, review would you?
