A/N: Sorry it's taken me so long to get this out - It's been a hectic summer and I haven't really been inclined to watch Rocky Horror lately and I figure I should watch it while writing the fic.
Also I'm finding myself deeply troubled by what I'm writing - not to mention Half Blood Prince is due to come out soon - I've just been freaking out. Oh and a few notes... I've noticed huge mistakes I've made in this fic... so just pretend they don't exist I'll prolly fix them later. Another note... If I haven't mentioned a year yet I'd say 6th year... also it's going to be disregarding HBP when that comes out - and if Draco dies for some odd reason I'm going to be so depressed...
Alright - well here it is...
A Rocky Hogwarts
Chapter 4
The next night before rehearsal officially began Dumbledore led Harry and Draco to nearby room. "This room, I hope, will suffice your," he paused and smiled, "purposes of rehearsal. I expect sometime next week you two can show everyone what you've rehearsed. I'll come back for you when we're finished." Dumbledore smiled and walked back to the main theater room.
Draco and Harry both glanced at each other grimacing in horror. "Well, come on, Malfoy." Harry entered the room.
It was very large and musty. Dust covered the portraits and mantels on the walls. There was an old fireplace where the bricks looked as if they was about to fall off the wall. Dim candles were lit and created a soft glow around the room. Draco followed Harry into the room and the light encompassed his face creating a soft halo effect. He looked almost unearthly until he tilted his head down and dark shadows formed under his eye. He went from heavenly to devilish in a record time.
Harry noticed the change and did not find it surprising that Malfoy could change his persona so rapidly. "So, should we just take it from where we were yesterday?"
"Um, yeah, I suppose." Draco replied apprehensibly. "Where do you want to start?"
"I guess I'll just start where I left off yesterday." Harry replied.
Soon both boys began to rehearse. Neither entirely comfortable but given the helplessness each had over the situation they were coping quite well. Rehearsal went fairly smoothly for each boy. The occasion insult was to be expected by but for the most part time past without incident.
"POTTER! Do you have to be that close!" Draco finally burst out.
"Well, Malfoy," Harry replied throwing his arms in the air, "It's a little hard to sing about 'making you a man' without close contact. And I don't know how else to wrap my arms around you without being this close. How else do expect us to go into our 'bridal suite'?"
"Jeez Potter, sounds like your anticipating that." Draco replied ignoring the killer look Harry was sending his way, "And anyway, it's not like we really have to do anything anyway - don't we just walk into a curtained area?"
"Yeah, but it wont be believable unless you stop freaking out when I wrap my arms around you." Harry and Draco both stopped and looked at each other in disbelief of the situation they were in.
"Fine!" Draco surrendered.
Harry inched closer to Draco and spoke softly, "So are you ready?" Draco nodded inhaling and slightly catching the smell of Harry's after shave which, he made a mental note of, was sandalwood rose. Harry repeated his lines and wrapped his arms around Draco but this time he spoke more gently and looked longer into Draco's eyes. To which Draco returned the gaze.
"So um," Draco finally spoke, "are we done with this scene?" Draco bit his lip.
"Oh," Harry said, stepping back a little, "Sorry."
"That's ok." Draco replied awkwardly as he quickly looked down brushed imaginary lint away from his pants. "So now what scene should we work on?"
"Um, I dunno. I'll go check." Harry walked over to where he'd placed his script but it wasn't there.
"If you're looking for the script I have it right here." Draco waved in into the air. Harry walked back over to Draco but on his way over his foot caught the end of the large rug laying on the floor and before he could catch himself he fell on top of Draco. Not expecting someone to be thrown on him, Draco fell to the ground with Harry crashing down on top.
"Ow." Draco simply replied closing his eyes tight.
Harry blushed a shade of deep red before maneuvering slightly and saying, "I am so sorry."
"What else could I expect from you?" Draco smirked rubbing the back of his head.
"Are you ok?"
"Yeah I think so," Draco opened his eyes and saw Harry looking back at him. It was the same deep gaze that he saw before. "Um..." he replied speechlessly before biting his lip again.
He could feel Harry's breath over his face. He slowly glanced over Harry's face finally resting his eyes on his perfectly shaped lips. Before he realized what he was doing he pulled Harry down to reach his own. Their lips collided together and to soon Harry stopped protesting and gave into the kiss. It wasn't Earth-shattering but for some reason neither boy stopped until Draco quickly became aware of the state of the situation. Mainly brought to his attention by the increasing tightness in his pants.
It seemed that Harry was having the same difficulty as he popped open his eyes and flew off of Draco immediately, "Oh my god!" He brought his hand to his face and started wiping his lips vigorously. "Malfoy lips! Lips of Malfoy!" He started to fake spit and pace around the room running his fingers through his hair.
Draco stood up quickly as well and had a similar mantra. "You fucking bastard! With your face and your... your lips!" he replied as he pointed at Harry and paced back and forth as well.
"My face!" Harry returned angrily, "Sorry you felt the need to make out with me! Your started this Malfoy, and there is no way you can put the blame on me here!"
"You fell on ME!" Draco stopped pacing and saw Harry had too. They were now facing each other, "You started this you clumsy excuse for a Quidditch player. You, with your... muscular arms... and... stupid hair." Harry dropped his jaw in awe of Draco's lack of an intelligent come back, "That's right... I said it. You have stupid hair!" Draco crossed his arms calmly, almost to say that that was all there was to the matter.
"What the fuck is wrong with you Malfoy?"
"You did this! You poisoned me or... or you put a spell on me!"
"Malfoy... I did no such thing," Harry started to inch closer to Malfoy. "You are mental."
Draco started to compose himself again and started to walk towards Harry as well. "You know Potter, I think you wanted this," He poked Harry in the chest and narrowed his eyes. "You were the one who was so eager for this play. You probably conspired with Dumbledore into making me be involved just so you could have your way with me! You're the one who wanted this separate room!"
"Have my way with you?" Harry gasped, "Malfoy, you've completely lost it. Look... you kissed me, its over now. Lets just forget the whole thing."
"I did not kiss you, Potter, as I have stated said reasons why in fact this is all your fault!"
"Whatever Malfoy!" Harry replied exasperated, "Lets just agree to forget it, ok? Agreed."
"This is your fault, Potter." Draco narrowed his eyes at Harry. "Agreed. And we're never to speak of it again."
Both boys backed away from each other but never lost eye contact. The were soon interrupted by a quiet, "Ahem." And as both boys looked to the doorway they say Hermione, Ron, Crabbe and Goyle standing at the huddling around the entrance.
"Oh shit." Both boys said and then looked at each other angrily.
"Um," Hermione said "Dumbledore said we could tell you rehearsal is over."
Draco quickly grabbed his things and stormed out of the room. Not before glaring a death stare towards Harry and pushing Hermione and Ron out of the way.
After he was gone Hermione quietly asked, "Um... Harry, what was that all about?"
"I don't want to talk about it!" He said and grabbed his things and the three left the empty rehearsal room and headed for the Gryffindor common room.
Well that's chapter four - finally a plot bunny bit my butt and was able to finish this! I hope you like it. Did you catch my Buffy line that I kinda stole and modified a little? If you did don't tell anyone that I plagiarized it b/c I'm citing it now:)
