A/N: Not much to say for this chapter, thank you to all my reviewers so far! You guys rock! And this chapter is back in third person, sorry if anyone preferred Draco's POV.
Lying Or Telling The Truth
Chapter 3:
Draco slowly opened an eye and unwillingly greeted the sunlight that flowed through the window into the boy's dorm. He sat up and noticed he was, yet again, the first one up. He quickly showered and made his way out before any of the other boys awoke. He was on his way to the Great Hall when he heard a moan come from an empty classroom to his right. Being the curious Slytherin that he was, and wanting to spread word of a new couple to the school, he quietly opened the door and peered inside. He certainly wasn't prepared for what he saw.
"Blaise?" he asked, unbelievably. The two broke their kiss and Draco recognized the girl as...Hermione Granger? "Granger?" Draco was so stunned he had no idea what to say. He just stood there, mouth agape, staring at the couple before him. This was probably the last people he'd ever thought to be together but there they were. He was so confused. "Uh...Draco? You still with us?" he was broke out of his thoughts by Blaise's voice.
"I'm just going to be going now to leave you two to your...whatever it is you're up to." With that Draco left the room, still completely shocked. He didn't even notice when he bumped into Harry,
"Draco, are you okay?"
"Uh, yeah, listen, I want to tell you something but you have to promise not to tell anyone, okay?"
"Yeah, sure."
"Come here." The blond pulled the other boy closer towards him, "I just walked in on Blaise and Gr-Hermione," he paused and Harry nodded urging him to go on, "Kissing."
"WHAT?! You walked in on them-"
Draco silenced the boy by pressing his lips harshly against Harry's. The Gryffindor eagerly kissed him back before Draco pulled away. "Don't tell anyone, I'm not supposed to know." Harry muttered a "yes" before walking towards the Great Hall for breakfast. Draco wasn't hungry so he wandered the corridors before Transfiguration.
He entered the classroom he'd shared with the Gryffindors since first year and with him being the first there it made McGonagall look up from her desk. The moment she saw the Slytherin she blushed and returned to her work. Draco inwardly laughed. A few minutes later the rest of the class entered and when Harry came in McGonagall became flushed again.
As usual Draco was bored throughout the whole class but perked up a bit when he heard they would have an assignment and would be working with assigned partners. "Dumbledore chose these partners and I had no say in them whatsoever." she said glancing at Harry and Draco. They grinned at each other. "Granger-Zabini, Parkinson-Weasley, Malfoy-Potter, Finnegan-Crabbe, Brown-Goyle, Bulstrode-Thomas, Patil-Nott. You will be doing an assignment on-"
"Excuse me, Professor McGonagall, but I need to speak to Harry and Mr. Malfoy," Dumbledore interrupted.
"Yes, of course, off you go boys."
They exited the classroom and followed the Headmaster to his office. "Taco Jelly Beans." Dumbledore said to the statue guarding his office.
"There's taco flavoured?" Harry asked quickly.
"What's a taco?" Draco wondered aloud at the same time.
"They are right when they say every flavour." Harry muttered while walking up the stone stairs that had appeared. "What the bloody hell is a taco?" Draco demanded again and when he received no answer he groaned loudly. Once in the room, Dumbledore motioned for the boys to sit down.
"I was informed early this morning, by Filch, that the two of you were found out of bed last night." Harry and Draco looked at him, very confused. "Anyway, the actual reason I brought you here is because I had to tell you both, especially Draco, that Mr. Malfoy escaped from Azkaban prison last night. I just want to tell you that you should keep your relationship a secret so Mr. Malfoy doesn't find out. Harry, you should be able to tell Mr. Weasley and Miss. Granger but Draco, I don't think you should tell any of your fellow housemates. That's all I wanted to say, you may be off to your next class."
The boys left, neither speaking to the other, both thinking over what Dumbledore had said. Draco knew he would have to keep his relationship a very deep secret; he probably wasn't even going to tell Blaise, he would have to come up with an excuse. Harry, on the other hand, was planning on telling Ron and Hermione eventually, Hermione before Ron, she would take it better. Ron was even having a hard time getting over the fact that Harry was gay let alone him being with Malfoy.
Harry walked up to the Gryffindor common room after parting ways with Draco and said the password to the Fat Lady, "Gryffindor paradise." And the portrait swung open. He really didn't feel like going to classes.
He stayed in his room all day, looking through his old photo album of his parents and his years at Hogwarts. By dinnertime he had gone through the book 17 times. He went downstairs to the Great Hall and sat beside Hermione. "Harry, where were you all day?" she asked him. "I wasn't feeling well so I skipped the rest of the classes." He lied, looking away, coincidently at the Slytherin table. A certain blond glanced at him, grinned and winked. Harry smiled a little back at his lover and noticed where Draco was looking, at Blaise and Hermione, who were exchanging lustful looks.
After dinner Harry wandered off to the same place he and Draco had been meeting the past two months. Draco was already there waiting for him. Draco noticed Harry coming towards him and wrapped his arms around the other boy's waist, "Are you going to tell Hermione and Weasley?"
"Yes, but I'm going to tell Hermione first, and since when have you called her 'Hermione'?"
"Since she started dating my best friend."
"Oh."
Before Harry could say anymore Draco captured his lips with his own, receiving a delightful moan from the boy. Harry grabbed a fistful of platinum blond hair and pulled lightly. He broke the kiss soon after, "Draco?"
"Yeah..."
"Aren't you worried about your father being out of Azkaban?"
"A little, as long as we keep this quiet we don't have much to worry about." Draco leaned in to kiss him again but was stopped, "I'm going to bed, I need to think, mostly because I am worried. Goodnight." He gave Draco a very brief kiss before walking away, leaving Draco more confused than he'd been in quite awhile.
A/N: Well there you go. The third chapter! I should have the 4th chapter up soon. Anyway, it's late and I have dumb old school in the morning so I better go. Oh and before I forget, this is 6th year incase you didn't know. Goodnight!
