Chapter 10- Coming out

Hermione came out of the bathroom just as the Slytherins were leaving, Pansy had obviously had an altercation with Ginny as the Slytherin girl was being dragged from the room and she had a vixen like red-head scowling at her from the other side of the room.

Hermione shrugged and sat down on the couch, not wanting to even ask what had gone on.

After the Slytherins left the air in the room was less tense, and soon Ginny was getting bored.

"That's it!" she said, jumping up out of her chair. Everyone in the room stared at her and waiting for her next statement. "I'm going for a tour of this place! There's nothing better to do." She walked over to the doors and put her hand on the door that led to Harry's room.

"This is your room isn't it Harry?" she asked, throwing the door open triumphantly. Harry and Hermione jumped up and tried to stop her but she was already walking into the room.

"Oh My gosh!" she squealed from inside, harry and Hermione were standing in the doorway and Ron pushed then inside and ran in to see what his sister was screaming about.

"Oh my fucking god!!" he gasped as he looked around the room, he blinked a couple of times and then turned on Harry.

"oh my god! You're-you-you're-"he stammered, gaping at his best friend.

"Gay? A poofter? A fag?" offered Draco.

"SHUT UP!" Yelled Harry, Hermione and Ron at once, Ginny just whimpered and stared at the walls.

"I was only trying to help," mumbled Draco, looking at the floor and smirking, usually he would have stormed off indignantly because he was told to shut-up, but he wasn't going to miss this.

"You're gay?" Ron breathed, looking at the pictures with disbelief.

Harry just shrugged and looked at his feet, Hermione put her hand on his shoulder and looked at Ron.

"It's not that big of a deal Ron, he'd still your best friend." She said soothingly, a little frightened of what her boyfriend would say.

"He can't be! Like Ginny said before, if he was my best friend he would have told me about something as BIG as being GAY!" he yelled, getting slightly red in the face.

Ginny whimpered once more at the mention of her name, and sat down on the bed with a picture of Harry and Alex in her shaking hands.

Harry was starting to get enraged, "Something as BIG as being gay? What's so big about it? Why should I 'come out' to everyone about my sexuality? I don't see you walking around 'admitting' to everyone that you're straight!" he yelled, seeing the injustice and irony of it all.

"BUT THAT IS BECAUSE BEING STRAIGHT IS NORMAL!" yelled Ron, looking slightly disgusted that his 'best friend' was moving closer to him.

Hermione's eyes widened in horror and Ginny gulped, they both looked at Harry who looked too angry to speak.

'You've done it now Weasley!" sneered Draco from the doorway, he too was looking slightly apprehensive at Harry's rage.

"And what have I done?" spat Ron, turning on Draco and showing his ignorance.

"You just called him abnormal! Any moron knows that being gay is just as 'Normal' as being straight! Obviously you're even dumber than a moron!" he sneered, looking superior.

"It isn't normal!" he spat back, looking at Harry then back at Draco. His face suddenly contorted into a look of disgust.

"You!" he pointed at Harry "and him!" he gaped, pointing at Draco. He shook his head and backed out of the room, "Dumbledore didn't! You can't be! EW!" he yelled and he ran out of the room, looking at Harry and Draco with complete disdain.

Hermione looked sadly at Harry and apologized quickly before she ran out after Ron, in an attempt to calm him down.

Harry sank down into his bed, shaking with anger and Ginny got up and kissed him on the head.

"It's okay Harry," she whispered, "I still love you, I would never judge you." she said, and then she looked at Draco. "That's why you're here isn't it?" she asked both Draco and Harry.

"Ugh No!" laughed harry as Draco said "yeah" and looked shameful.

Harry looked shocked and Draco laughed.

"I overheard harry telling Hermione that he was gay and we got into a brawl, this was our punishment." He explained and Harry looked slightly relieved.

"I thought you meant it like Ron did!" laughed Harry, blushing slightly he looked up at Draco and awaited his reaction.

"And you said ugh no?" he asked, looking slightly put out. "UGH? You react to the thought of being with me by saying 'Ugh no!' I didn't realise I wasn't your type!" he laughed, picking up a pillow and throwing it at Harry.

"What can I say?" Harry shrugged, "You utterly repulse me!"

Ginny laughed and slipped out of the room but neither boy noticed, Draco blinked at Harry a couple of times and let his jaw drop open.

"I Repulse YOU?" he gasped, then he struck what he thought was a sexy pose and wiggled his eyebrows suggestively at Harry, "even now?" he said, in his sexiest voice.

Harry laughed and nodded and Draco looked even more outraged. He ran his hand over his neck and chest and then around over his butt and then swiveled his body around so Harry could get a better view of that body part. "You find my sexy sexy body utterly repulsive?" he drawled and Harry laughed.

"Okay Draco, stop!" he gasped in a fake turned on voice. "Don't torture me with your extreme good looks. I admit it, you're so damn sexy I cant sleep at night!" he finished with a laugh and shook his head.

"Good!" said Draco smugly, "but don't get any ideas because you're not my type!" he said and he turned and walked out.

As the door slammed shut Harry lay down on his bed and groaned, 'Damn that sexy Draco and his body!" his mind screamed as he thought about the blonde's actions.

He sighed and pulled himself off the bed and went to find a shoulder to cry on.

5 minutes later Harry was seated on the couch next to Draco complaining about Ron.

"I mean, who is he to judge me? How dare he say being gay isn't normal!" he fumed, getting very angry.

"Calm down Harry it was just the shock," said Draco soothingly, "he'll come round, he's your best friend!" he said, running his hand through the coarse black hair that sat on Harry's head.

Harry smirked to himself as he felt Draco's hand in his hair, he knew the boy didn't really know he was doing it and if he commented he would be embarrassed and stop so he lay there contently letting the blonde massage his scalp.

'I thought he'd understand!' he whimpered, starting to get upset.

Draco looked down at the boy and tried to think of a calming response, he saw his own hand in his hair and quickly pulled it out feeling very stupid.

"You want a drink?" he asked, jumping out of the chair and running to the kitchen.

Harry laughed and nodded, realising that Draco had been embarrassed, but he now longed for the blonde boy's touch.

"I have a brilliant idea!" said Draco as he brought two cans of coke back to the couch and sat down next to Harry.

"What's that?" asked Harry, trying to sound excited.

"It's something that will cheer you right up," Draco answered, getting up. "I'll be back soon, stay here!" he said as he walked out the door.

Harry looked at the door bewildered, Draco had certainly changed!
