(A/N): Hello! I'm so pleased with the amount of reviews I got!!! Wow, over thirty for two chapters... (floats on cloud of golden happiness)... BUT (there's always a but, lol) I get SO VERY pissed off when I check my stats and see that over SIXTY people have me on their author alert list!!! I mean, I'm flattered but... GUYS, REVIEW!!! I want to get an UNBELIEVABLE amount of reviews, and YOU (points to cowering would-be reviewers) can make that happen! But those of you who DID review (unlike some people, grumblegrumble) are absolutely fantabulous! (Dude, it didn't go all red and squiggly, I had NO IDEA that was a real word! Sorry, I'm sugar high from Halloween candy :-P). Uh... yeah. I just lost my train of thought. Okay, well I made a homepage just for you guys coz I didn't feel like having the same website for my friends and for my reviewers. Okay, well it's on xanga, and my username is Princesspepper22 (22 is my favorite number :-P). There's a link to it on my profile page on , so check it out! I'll post updates on the status of my story to let you know that I didn't DISAPPEAR and that I AM actually writing. And if you have xanga, feel free to comment. But I'd rather you review. So yeah. I say that a lot. WAHOO my best friend (one of them... I have multiple best friends) just called. So now my brain is even more melty coz I never think when I talk to him. It's so much fun... okay, personals!
adina: I DID?! WHERE?! That really pisses me off. Thanks for the long(ish) review!
Gryffindorgrl86: Yup yup, I only read H/D. Heh, I personally think het is boring. But I may write a het one shot... hmm... well whatever. Lol, believe me, if it were me, Draco would be one tired boy as well! He's so cute... okay, getting off the subject. OH DON'T YOU WORRY; there are PLENTY of hot slash scenes to come. I can't do without! I originally wasn't going to put in that scene in the last chapter but I had to!
twodollartrick: Am I a heartless bitch? Coz I seem to be the only one who doesn't feel bad for Seamus! He was just getting in the way of destiny!! But hmm, he may come back to haunt Harry... yeah, the screaming thing was rather mean, but I could so picture that happening. And I'm so glad you think the second chapter unfolded well because I was afraid it was kinda awkward. I had writers block while I was writing that particular part, so I thought it was kinda choppy. The slashy scenes actually come easy to me though, no clue why (wink wink). I would never push Draco out of my bed either. And WHAT? How could you tempt me with information like that and not go into greater detail!? Nah, you don't have to, I'm just so nosy! Lol. Well good luck with whatever is going on. I'm sure you can handle it; I trust your judgment! And NO Harry will not have to listen to them having sex. That would be so evil! I'm not that mean to my beautiful little Harry (hugs him)! Plus, Draco wasn't lying when he said that himself and Blaise hadn't had sex. Just clearing that up. YAY I loved your "mammoth review" coz I love long ones in general! Well, in response, you got a mammoth A/N so yah!
cmere2: Yup, it's so funny when Draco sees muggle devices. He gets all freaked out, lmao! You're the second person to speak of "sexual tension," it seems as if you people are psychoanalyzing Harry and Draco. Which is really funny, in my opinion. NO WAY, you saw Yellowcard live? RECENTLY?! I so wanted to see the Warped Tour this year but I procrastinated so long that I couldn't get tickets (I'm slightly agoraphobic, so maybe it's for the best –insert sad face-). Yeah, so they're my favorite band ever. Glad you had a good time! THEY ROCK SO HARD! Lol, I love the enthusiasm! I'm so sorry this took so long!
personz-of-da-dungeon: Oh, I stayed up late Saturday night. In other words, Sunday morning. Yup, I was up when the clocks changed!
Drag: heh, I love your reviews. Oh, Draco is most definitely horny. But hey, he's always horny. Lol, thanks for the review!
in aCRIMSON love: Blaise? SEXY? Hmm, I don't know. Do we know what he looks like? Lol, I dunno why Seamus. You flatter me ever so (blushes)! I'm the one who turned you onto Draco/Harry?? NO WAY! Again, I'm very flattered. No, you weren't rambling, and even if you were, I don't mind. I like to read ramblings as long as they're in reviews!
pisces-twins: I totally agree with everything you said! Thanks for the review!
pinkishy-baobao: Heehee, your username makes me giggle. Its so funny. And no way am I discontinuing. I finish everything I start thankyouverymuch!
CatJetRat: Wooow, that is quite a sugar high. I type too fast all the time, lol. I hate when that happens, so many typos! Heehee, thank you, that is a lot of reallys. And yes, I can figure out what turny-ony means, but I don't know why that would make me a better person than you, lol. Yup, that would be pretty horrible. But, hey, Seamus was just in the way. Heehee, you shall see how Harry reacts. Hmm... lol okay, thanks for the review!
Mollie-Woods: YAY, I'm so flattered! I wouldn't say novel length; well I dunno what you consider novel length, lol. But it'll be about the same as the last story. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Lol well I don't know. Thank you so much for the review!
Aquilus: Fanfiction is addicting isn't it?? Lets just say some things are going to happen involving Blaise in this chapter. SOMEBODY'S going to end up unhappy... interpret that however you want, lol. Enjoy!
Also a big thanks to

Cherryblossom3!!!!!!!!! THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS!!!
Okay, procrastinating. All I can think about lately is the outcome of the election (btw, for those of you who didn't know, I live in the United States, and we just re-elected Bush... I'm not all that happy to say the very least). Yeah, so I'm really pissed off. I think the whole reason people voted for Bush is because they'd rather see their children shipped off to war than see two men holding hands... IT'S NOT RIGHT!!!! Btw, this is my personal opinion, no offense to you if you are for Bush. I'm just venting.
(Chapter Three: )
"You sound angry, Draco, what's going on?" Blaise said softly to a very shell-shocked Draco Malfoy.
"Er, nothing, this fellytone thing just scared me. Hey, since when can you use one of these muggle contraptions?"
"Oh, I heard your school had them so I learned. Won't it be nice to be able to keep in touch?" Blaise said sweetly.
"Er, yes... sure." Draco answered distractedly. Harry was still sitting on the bed, looking quite ruffled from what he had just partaken in. He couldn't believe Draco had just engaged him in a kiss and was now talking to his boyfriend on the phone. It made Harry's blood boil.
Draco turned around, remembering Harry was still there and shot him a death stare, obviously attempting to shoo him out of the room. So, Harry decided now was a good time for him to take a shower. He quickly gathered his things and disappeared into the next room.
"So, how do you like it there so far?" Blaise was asking.
"Er, its fine. Yes, fine." Said Draco nervously.
"Do you have a roommate?" Blaise questioned innocently.
Draco groaned inwardly. "Uh, yeah I do."
"Well who is it then?"
"Uh, you don't know him. Some Wizard from Durmstrang." Draco cringed at his lie.
"Ah, I see," stuttered Blaise awkwardly, all too aware that he was running out of conversational topics, and Draco wasn't being much of a help.
"Well, Blaise, I best be going; I've got some things to attend to." Draco muttered.
"Er, okay then. Talk to you soon. Love you Dray."
Draco twitched. "Mm, bye." He said quickly before attempting to hang up: he laid the phone down in the wrong direction several times before it fell into place. Draco muttered to himself while pacing the room for several minutes.
Why can't I just break up with him? He fumed silently. It would save all three of us a shitload of pain! He just said he loves me! This cannot go on. Thought Draco grimly.
At that moment, Harry strolled out of the steamy bathroom, towel drying his already messy black hair as he walked. And now he's teasing me, Draco thought, great. Just peachy, that is.
But Draco was a good boy and restrained himself. He just stared quietly from a distance, longing for the forbidden fruit that was walking past. But Harry's voice snapped him back to reality.
"Malfoy? I'm going out for the day; I want to explore the town a bit. Okay?"
"Mm, wha? Oh sure, Potter. See you later then." Draco responded, still staring.
"Alright, I'll just finish getting dressed..." said Harry as he walked back into the bathroom.
Ahhh, shit! Draco thought. I've gotta do SOMETHING! Draco sat on his bed for a minute, trying to think of a solution. Suddenly, his eyes shot open as he got an idea. He remembered in sixth year when he was trying to seduce Harry... and it had worked! Draco sniggered as he realized he was going to be doing something today after all.
"SHIT!" Draco yelled as he heard approaching footsteps. He had not returned from his shopping venture too long ago and he had just finished fixing up the room, but he had not yet dressed himself. He quickly grabbed the bag of clothes and darted into the bathroom.
He pulled the black leather slacks out of the bag and looked at them proudly. He had walked into that shop with a purpose and made it clear to the saleswoman. She had asked him what he was looking for and he had responded, quite to the point, "I need something to seduce my boyfriend with." And at that, she got hot in the face and rather enthusiastically lead him over to the leather section. She was quite helpful, but Draco couldn't help thinking she just wanted to see him in skintight pants.
As Draco slid the tight material over his hipbones, he turned around so he could admire his backside in the mirror. After zipping them up and approving the way it showed off his ass, he pulled the shirt out of the bag as well. It was made of green silk and hung loosely over his thin frame, showing off a large portion of his pale yet sculpted chest.
Draco heard an abrupt noise outside and suddenly remembered that Harry was arriving. When he walked out, though, he realized that it must have been someone else walking around, for Harry was still not in. Draco breathed a sigh of relief and continued to put the finishing touches on their room. Everything had to be perfect.
Harry was shocked beyond all comprehension when he entered the room. His initial reaction was amazement. Draco went through all this trouble? For me? He thought, astounded. This reminded him very much of a night not too long ago. The various tables and other surfaces were adorned with lit scented candles, emitting a flowery aroma. Draco had replaced the boring blue bedspreads with rich, velvety red ones. And best of all, Draco was sitting atop his own bed wearing a very interesting outfit.
"Malfoy," Harry breathed, "I thought I told you it was no use. I'm not giving in. You have a boyfriend."
"No, not anymore, Harry." Draco lied quietly. He had to have Harry and he wouldn't wait any longer.
"Wha-what?" Harry gasped, trying to no avail to mask his delight.
"You heard me." Draco said with a smirk. Harry was now slowly edging towards him, almost afraid he was hallucinating. He was squinting his eyes and pursing his lips thoughtfully.
"For god's sake, Potter, wipe that stupid look off your face and just sodding kiss me!" Draco sighed impatiently.
Harry complied happily. He strode over to the bed and quickly sat atop Draco's legs, pinning him to the bed. Harry then straddled his waist and put one hand on either side of his head, leaning in closer. When their lips brushed, an electric-like impulse shot through Harry's every nerve, giving him more pleasure than anything he had done with Seamus ever resulted in.
Harry pressed down harder, and Draco reached up to remove his glasses, which were merely getting in the way. Harry pulled off Draco's silk shirt and quickly discarded it on the floor. Draco mimicked Harry's motion soon after.
"I suppose this is where we left of, Draco?" Harry said softly, licking Draco's collarbone.
"Yes, yes, get on with it!" Draco moaned.
Harry began to slowly unzip Draco's pants while still kissing him passionately. He licked and bit Draco's lips as he worked, making them quite swollen. Harry was thoroughly enjoying himself, but he couldn't help sensing something that was amiss. There was something about the whole situation that Harry didn't feel so at ease about. Uneasiness clouded Harry's senses for a moment, causing him to stop moving.
"Whadyastopfor?" Draco said dazedly. He looked up at Harry questioningly. It was strange that he had stopped, because right before he did, Draco had started to feel regret about his decision to cheat on Blaise.
Harry shook his head dismissively and began kissing Draco again. He paused for a moment and said, "Does this mean we're back together?"
"Absolutely." Draco said with a smile.
Harry's hands traveled back down to Draco's pants and he slowly unzipped them the rest of the way. He wormed his way inside with his hand and began stroking Draco slowly. Draco moaned, quickly getting excited. He began to pull off Harry's trousers, still kissing him passionately.
Harry moved his mouth down to Draco's neck and suddenly bit down hard, making Draco gasp loudly. He bit and sucked for several moments until he drew blood, which he hastily licked away before kissing Draco's mouth again. Suddenly, the boys heard a noise coming from the doorway...
Blaise Zabini stood excitedly outside his boyfriend's dorm room. He's going to be so surprised, he thought happily. Well, that was one thing he was right about.
He softly knocked on the door, but there was no answer, so he knocked louder. Still nothing. Hm, he thought, maybe he's not in.
So Blaise turned the doorknob, hoping it might be unlocked so he could wait there for Draco. To his luck (or so he thought), it was open, so he turned the knob and slowly opened the door.
Blaise gasped. He was utterly horrified at what he saw. His boyfriend was on the bed, with another boy on top of him. They were snogging. And neither of them was wearing a shirt. What was more, the other boy had his hand in Draco's trousers, and Draco was audibly moaning. But the worst part was, that boy was... Harry Potter!
At the sound of Blaise's gasp, Draco jumped out from under the other boy and looked up, his face shocked. He instantly took his hands off Potter's shoulders and stared wide-eyed at Blaise.
"Blaise! How nice to see you... dear." Draco said reluctantly, now zipping up his pants and looking for his shirt.
"Sure, Draco." Blaise seethed.
"I swear, its not what it looks like!" Draco stammered.
"Oh please, that's the oldest excuse in the book. But I'm curious Draco, how do you explain this?"
Draco's eyes darted around the dimly lit room, searching for an answer. "Well you see," he started, "Potter and I- well we just got a little carried away! In fact, I didn't even notice you walk in; I was going to make him stop anyway! And- well we had just started, its not like we'd been doing that for a while or anything!"
What a load of shit, Blaise thought sadly. "I'm sure that's what happened. And I suppose this room came like this, with scented candles all over? And gee Draco, I don't remember giving you that love bite!" said Blaise, gesturing to Draco's fresh mark.
"But-but... we just got carried away! Isn't that right Har...? Potter! I meant Potter!" Draco stuttered, looking at Harry for support.
"You're on your own, Malfoy." Harry said, looking angry. He walked into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.
Dammit! Draco thought, turning to Blaise again. Draco sighed; he didn't even know why he was bothering to lie. "Alright fine. You caught me. The only reason I didn't break up with you earlier is because I didn't want to hurt you. I still like you as a friend and all, but you know that I'm still in love with Harry. And, dammit, now he's mad at me because I lied to him!"
Blaise looked at Draco unsympathetically. "Now whose fault is that, Draco?" Draco opened his mouth thoughtfully, but then Blaise continued. "You know what? Don't answer that. It is not your fault. I should have known this wouldn't work. It didn't work in fourth year, so why should it work now?"
Draco shook his head softly. "I'm sorry."
"No, I'm sorry." Blaise said remorsefully. "Sorry for thinking you were over him. Now we can't even be friends. Bye, Draco. Good luck." And with that and a last fleeting glance, Blaise turned on his heel and left the room, never to return.
Draco knew he should feel sad that he broke Blaise's heart, but he couldn't help grinning. Now that nuisance was out of his way and his path to Harry was clear. But there was only one problem: now Harry was furious!
Draco gently knocked on the bathroom door. "Harry? Could you open the door?" he said gently.
"Go away, Malfoy." Harry snapped bitterly.
"Come on Harry, now Blaise is out of the way for good! Now we can really be together!"
"You lied, Draco. If I'd had known, I would never have kissed you. I don't support cheating." It was clear to Draco that Harry was very upset. He had been enjoying himself immensely, and then just seconds later, he discovered that the guy he was kissing was spoken for.
"Come on, Harry, weren't you listening to anything I said to him before?"
"No," Harry sniffed, "I don't normally eavesdrop on other people's conversations."
"I don't believe you," Draco said with a smirk.
"Okay, fine I heard. But you still tricked me!" Harry said miserably.
"Because I love you! And I didn't want to hurt Blaise! He's my best friend!" Draco said impatiently. "Or was." He added sadly.
...can't stay mad at him for long...
"What was that, Harry? Are you talking to yourself?" Draco said, confused.
"I- I didn't say anything!" Harry said, getting a little freaked out.
Draco raised a pale eyebrow but said nothing. "Come on Harry, just open the door."
Harry didn't answer, but Draco heard the distinct sound of the door unlocking, so he grabbed the knob and turned it while applying pressure. The door swung open to reveal Harry standing with his eyes tearing up.
"Aah, Harry, what's upsetting you so much?" Draco said softly.
...I don't like it when he lies to me...
"Nothing. Allergies..." Harry mumbled.
"That's not what you said before!" Draco said, getting a little scared. "You said you don't like it when I lie to you!"
"...I didn't say that out loud Draco." Harry said quietly.
Draco stared at Harry, wide eyed. What's happening to us? He thought silently.
"I don't know!" Harry said, his eyes widening as well.
"HOLY SHIT, I DIDN'T SAY THAT OUT LOUD!" Draco screamed.
The two boys locked eyes, and at that moment, they each felt feelings that were not their own. Harry began to feel a wave of remorse and longing in the pit of his stomach, and Draco felt resentment and sorrow.
"Did you feel that?" Draco stammered. Harry nodded quickly. "WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?!" Draco yelled again.
Harry looked at Draco reluctantly. "Uh... well remember how I was talking to Hermione before? On the phone?" he stammered. Draco nodded suspiciously. "Well, she was telling me that she thinks we- I mean me and you- have a... magical bond."
Draco's eyes widened. "Are you serious Harry? Wow..." he said. "But... you know, that actually sounds plausible. Hey, we should test it out. Try to read my mind."
Harry nodded and closed his eyes tight, trying his best to concentrate on what Draco may be thinking. He gasped as he heard something all of a sudden.
Does this mean you'll kiss me again?
Harry's eyes snapped open and he glared at Draco. "NO!" he said loudly, but in his mind, he couldn't help thinking something else.
...Most likely...
Draco started laughing hysterically. "You know I heard that, Harry!"
Harry couldn't help laughing as well, although this was really weird. Draco looked at Harry fondly as he was laughing, taking a mental picture. I never stopped loving him, he thought silently, but then realized Harry was probably listening. Shit, you heard that, didn't you? He added.
Haha, yes. Harry responded mentally, but don't worry; it was sweet.
Draco looked up at Harry to see him advancing on him. His green eyes were still sparkling with laughter as he gently rested his hands on Draco's shoulders, bringing him in closer. Harry slowly leaned down to capture Draco's waiting lips in a kiss.
I want more! Draco gasped silently, urging Harry to continue. And so he did. Harry pried open Draco's lips with his tongue to allow himself entry. He slowly teased Draco's tongue with his own, eliciting moans from deep in Draco's throat.
When the two broke apart, Draco was flushed and breathless, and Harry was sure he didn't look much better. Happy now, Malfoy? Harry thought with a smirk. But Draco just looked at him. So Harry looked back, making Draco paranoid.
"What?" Draco said self-consciously.
"I asked you a question, you didn't answer me!" Harry responded.
"You did? Did you think it?" Harry nodded. "Well, maybe it's in-consistent or something. I don't know. Is Hermione going to do research?"
"Yeah..." Harry said thoughtfully, "She's going to call us back tomorrow."
"Okay... well what do we do until then?"
Harry looked at Draco. "I don't know," he said honestly, "I'm so confused."
"Well don't worry, Harry, we don't really have to think about that now. We'll just wait 'till we hear from Hermione."
Harry shook his head slightly. "That's not what I'm confused about."
"Then what is it?"
"I'm confused about...us. About you, Draco." Harry said quietly, looking at the floor.
"Well, what specifically?" Draco asked, turning slightly red from embarrassment.
"Ah, well... ok, I'll just get to the point. Why did you break up with me?" Questioned Harry, now looking Draco straight in the eye.
Draco heaved a heavy sigh before answering him. "Because, Harry, Lucius was on to us. He was expecting me to hand you over to the dark lord. And I was not about to do that."
Harry motioned for Draco to continue. "Well, do you remember that time? Uh, right after we... you know..." Draco's voice trailed off, embarrassed. Harry nodded his head. Yes, he remembered that night. It began so beautifully but ended in quite a nightmarish way. The boys had just had sex when Draco began acting very oddly.
"Please continue," Harry encouraged.
"Ah, well that night, when I began acting weird? Lucius had put me under the imperious curse. That is when I knew I had to leave you. As long as we were in the same bed, you were not safe."
Harry's eyes were now glistening with tears. "You- you did it... for me?"
Draco nodded solemnly. "I feel so much better now that you know the truth, Harry."
Harry nodded. "But, what makes now any different? Why is it okay for us to be together now?"
"Because, Lucius is in Azkaban, and he can't hurt you there." Draco said firmly.
Harry walked up to Draco and hugged him tight. "Thank you." He choked, trying to hold back tears. Draco, shocked, returned the hug reluctantly. Harry kissed the top of Draco's head, and then bent down slightly to kiss him full on the lips. When they pulled away, Harry found Draco's hand and squeezed it.
"You've been very brave. I don't know what else to say. I don't deserve you, Dray."
Draco kissed Harry again, enjoying his taste. Then he took his hand and led him out of the bathroom. "Harry," he said gently, "it's getting late. Maybe we should go to sleep now?" Harry nodded and began undressing for bed as Draco did the same. They went into their own beds, although Draco really wished Harry would sleep with him. Little did Harry know, had he slept in Draco's bed, a lot of difficulty could have been avoided.
The two kissed one last time before mentally saying goodnight. They were having so much fun with their new power. They had yet to find out just how useful it would be.
As Harry and Draco slept, a dark figure slipped into the room. The silhouette crept against a wall and slowly made its way towards Draco's sleeping form. She cackled to herself; all the weeks of spying had finally paid off. She reached into the pocket of her cloak and withdrew her wand, which she carefully aimed at the sleeping boy.
She muttered a few words, and Draco was immediately bound and gagged. At the sudden contact, Draco's eyelids shot open in fear. He warily turned his head to look at his captor.
"Ah, hello nephew." She whispered so as not to wake the room's other occupant, "I'm terribly sorry about this, but The Dark Lord's got some plans for you. Say goodbye to your boyfriend, you won't be seeing him for a while." And with that and another merciless cackle, Bellatrix Lestrange grabbed Draco and disapparated.
(End Of Chapter Three)
(A/N): I'm terribly sorry as for how long it took me to update. I had awful writer's block for the longest time, and I just couldn't get myself to write! Well we can all thank my friend Jen (princesspeach13 on ) for unblocking me! She gave me the great idea to make Draco the "damsel in distress" (oh man, he would so kill me if he knew I said that. Imagine Draco, a damsel in distress? Aahahaha!). I'm also sorry for the cliffhanger. But you know I do that. So you probably expected it. Well I do hope you enjoyed this chapter, and I promise I'll do my best to never make you wait that long again! Remember to REVIEW! Until next time,
