Leo Note: Sorry this took as long as it did. I wrote out a whole chapter and almost posted it before realizing that it didn't work with the first. So I hope you enjoy and I ask you to please review even if it is just a simple 'I like it.' or a 'this sucks'.
Chapter two
It didn't take Harry and Draco long to get settled. Their trunks were placed on the rack, held firmly in place by spells. The doors were locked magically so they would not be disturbed. As the boys sat together, abandoning one of the two chairs, the train rattled down the track. Serious matters were for later, for after they silently showed each other how much he missed the other. Their lips melded together as Draco lay between Harry's legs. Harry's was back pushed against the window and one of his legs was hanging off the bench. Draco's side was now against Harry's chest. He was turned at an odd angle so that he could reach Harry's lips. Breaking away from Harry's soft lips Draco turned himself completely around so that he was half kneeling half laying between Harry's legs. Harry made a sound of pleasure as Draco began licking and nipping his way down the Gryffindors neck.
Harry let his head fall back against the window to give Draco better access to his neck. He wasn't sure what it was, but this time it was completely different. Everything was intensified. Draco mouth felt warmer and the contrast between the warmth of his tongue and the air that hit the abandoned spots was greater. Draco's touches burned across his skin minutes after Draco's hands had left. Currently Draco was leaving one of those hot trails up Harry's shirt. As Draco's finger tips approached Harry's nipple Harry could feel Draco warmth spreading further. Draco brushed his fingertips over Harry's nipple sending a shock through Harry's body causing him to scream out. The pleasure was so intense and so close to pain and Harry wanted to feel it over and over again.
However, Draco was now in the other seat looking shocked. Harry shook his head trying to clear his sex-muddled mind. Thinking more clearly, Harry realized just how weird what happened was.
"What was that?"
"I don't know." Draco said still shocked and unsure of what Harry would do. The logical part of his brain kept telling him that it was Harry and Harry wouldn't leave Draco if he was a mountain troll. But there was still that part telling Draco that Harry would walk right out the door wanting nothing to do with him and his unpure blood.
"What do you mean you don't know."
"Well I have an idea. I'm just not exactly sure why it happened." Draco said rolling his eyes. "I guess this would be as good a time as any to tell you what's going on."
"I'm all ears." Harry said getting comfortable on his chair."
"Okay . . . I'm a Veela." Harry blinked a little shocked.
"As in those ugly things with wings."
"Thanks Potter really."
"Sorry, I . . . well . . . the image kinda stuck. So, anyway, go on." Draco sighed. He really didn't want to talk about it.
"You may or may not know, but Veela's have mates."
"And I'm yours?" Harry asked, remembering what Draco had said earlier.
"Well not exactly. Apparently Veela's have their choice of potential mates and your one of mine. As is Abott, but I think we both know who I'll chose." Harry's face fell and he sniffed.
"Gods Draco I had our wedding all planned out and now you are going to go marry some Hufflepuff. Sniff" Draco reached across to Harry and pushed him.
"Stop being a dumbass." Harry grabbed Draco's arm and pulled him back over to the seat they were originally in. Draco was now straddling Harry as they continued the conversation.
"But what will you love me for if I'm not."
"Your great body." Harry looked down at himself and smiled.
"Yeah I do have a great body, don't I?" Draco rolled his eyes.
"And you're so modest too."
"Gods I'm like the perfect person." Draco just shook his head. "Anyway, so about this whole mate thing. How do you chose your mate?"
"Well . . ." Draco got off Harry's lap and sat next to him. Giving Harry the feeling that he wouldn't much like what Draco had to say. "My Veela is attracted to all these people, but I also feel. It's like there is another person sharing my body. You're not to tell anyone I just said that." Draco said the last very sternly.
"My lips are sealed."
"Okay, so the person I like most out of the ones my Veela can mate with is the one I chose."
"So how do you chose? I mean do you just say, 'I pick Abott.'."
"First off I wouldn't pick Abott if she was the last one left alive. Second," Draco paused for a minute. "We have sex."
"What!"
"Harry I know-"
"What that I want it to actually mean something. It doesn't matter though we can still wait right."
"Actually, I really think we should."
"Draco."
"I know, it's just what if something happens?"
"Like what, you decide to cheat on me?"
"I don't think that will be the matter. The closer I get to my birthday the stronger these feelings are going to get. If I am not mated by then the Veela will take over more and more. What if I am with one of my potentials and the Veela takes over, then what am I supposed to do?"
"But Draco I don't want to have sex with you for that. I want it to be because it feels right."
"Because we are so focused on each other that the world around us is forgotten, that our cares and worries about the whole thing are forgotten. You want us to be caught up in each other. I remember."
"Yes, and it won't be that way if we do this. Because the whole thing will be about the worries that we have."
"Or it will be about the fact that we want to spend the rest of our lives together and want to make sure that we will never be torn apart."
"I don't want to plan this. I want it to be spontaneous."
"You're-"
"Such a hopeless romantic." Harry said coping Draco's drawl. "But aren't you supposed to give me hope."
"No! Not this time." Draco said standing up.
"Why not!" Harry yelled standing up, not to be out done.
"Because!"
"Because why?"
"Because I said so!"
"If you think that I am going to let you get away with that you are crazy. Why the hell can't we just wait?"
"Because!" Draco saw Harry clench his jaw and knew that this was one of those arguments that he would not win. The ones on this subject always were. Discretely Draco unlocked the compartment door. "Because I don't want to risk losing you!" Softly he added, "Forever." before running out the door.
Harry sighed sank down onto the seat, burring his face in his hands as he cursed himself for having pushed Draco. Now the blonde would avoid him and he really didn't want to go through it again. Draco wouldn't even be in the same room as him for a week after he told Harry he loved him. It was just something that Harry got used to. He would leave Draco alone for a while before seeking him out and approaching him slowly.
"Harry is everything alright?" Harry looked up to see Ginny standing in the doorway. He gave her a small smile.
"Yeah."
"Are you sure? I heard yelling."
"Yeah. Draco just told me he cares about me."
"Oh." Ginny understood. Since Ron and Hermione didn't care to hear anything about Draco and Harry, Harry had to find someone new to confide in. Ginny offered her shoulder when she saw that Hermione and Ron had become less caring to Harry. They were all still best friends, until Draco was mentioned and then they went their separate ways. Later they would all be talking again, just fine. Draco was a sore subject.
"So how was your summer?"
"Awful. Hermione came over and I was excited because hanging out with her all summer is usually great and all, but she was fucking attached to Ron's hip and the only thing they talked about was how they hoped you and Draco ended over the summer. Every time I heard them I told them that you guys were better than ever. One day, after Ron used a sticking charm to stick me to the ceiling, I told them that you guys were talking about marriage." Ginny said laughing. Harry joined her.
"I wish I could have seen their faces."
"Me too. It was the greatest moment of my summer. So how are you two doing aside from the whole feeling sharing fight."
"Great really. And I think that whole marriage thing might be more probable than you think." Ginny's eyes widened.
"Really?"
"Yeah. He said that he is a Veela and implied that he's already chosen me as his mate. So I think we'll be together for awhile."
"His mate?"
"Yeah. I-" Harry was cut off by the sound of Draco screaming. Harry jumped up and rushed into the hall, to see Draco running at him. Draco didn't slow down as he approached the other boy, but slammed into him, taking them both to the ground.
Draco touched as much of Harry as he could. Sighing as he once again smelt spring.
"Draco what happened." Harry asked from under Draco as he ran a hand through the blondes hair.
"Oh gods. Weasley, apple pie, all the little red headed kids. Don't let him near me." Draco held Harry tighter.
"Draco I can't help you if you suffocate me." Draco relaxed his grip, but did nothing else.
"My brother is a potential?" Ginny asked. Draco just moaned, completely forgetting his shock at Ginny being there when Ron was brought up. "I'm so sorry." Harry laughed at the comment, which also got a small smirk from Draco.
"It was awful. I swear if he comes near me I am throwing the nearest first year at him."
"Poor first year." Ginny said. Draco got off of Harry and looked at Ginny after giving his boyfriend a hand up.
"Now I remember why I like you." Ginny feigned a hurt look.
"You needed reminding." Then she smiled and pulled Draco into a hug. "It's been a snarkless summer without you Draco."
"I'm surprised you survived." Harry just shook his head at the two.
"Come on let's go sit down the trolley should be by soon."
"As usual thinking about food." Draco said walking back into the compartment.
The rest of the train ride was enjoyable. The three just talked catching up on the things that happened over the summer. Laughing about the things Ginny had told Ron and Hermione. They were all a little disappointed when the reached the Hogsmeade station, but that was soon gone as the hustle and bustle of another year beginning.
