Hello Again...
I sighed and threw the covers off of me, the early summer heat getting to me even though the window was open. I turned on my side and listened to the snores, and quiet sounds of my other dorm mates as they slept peacefully, the lucky bastards. I on the other had gone to sleep late, and even then I only got one good hour an half of sleep before I started to toss and turn. I don't what it was that was keeping me up, maybe it had to do with the exams coming up or the end of the year. Or maybe it had to with a certain blonde slytherin.
With a sigh I sat up quietly thinking of Draco once again. If I wasn't doing homework or concentrating on quidditch, he dominated my thoughts. Trivial things too, I'd be sitting in the common room half listening to Ron and Hermione as they bickered and wonder what Draco was doing at the moment. Wondering if he thought about me. I hadn't spoken to him since our last conversation in the library and that had been months ago. Now the spring was turning into summer and the students were looking forward to the summer break. Everyone but me that was.
Since the Dursley's were in hiding I had no where to go. Not that I was complaining, I rather not know where I was going after the year was over then go back to them and be forced into isolation. But knowing Dumbledore, he probably had everything set up.
I shook my head trying to clear it. This was why I couldn't sleep I was thinking too much. Laying back down I tried falling asleep again. Fifteen minutes later I stopped pretending and with a mental sigh threw the covers off of me once again and parted the curtains around my bed. I put on my shoes and left the dorm room, closing the door softly behind me. I walked down the stairs and into the common to find it dark, silent and empty. But I didn't stop there, I crossed the common room and out the portrait door.
In honesty I didn't know where I was going, I just knew I that I needed to get out. Walking slowly and aimlessly I berated myself on not bringing my invisibility cloak, it was as if I was asking to be caught out of bed. I stopped at one of windows with a perfect view of the lake and thought about million things and at the same time nothing at all. I'd never say it out loud, mostly because it would make it to real but I missed Draco. A lot. There were times when I was tempted to damn everything and everyone and just go to him but he seemed to be doing fine without me and I would only get hurt. Though I was very happy to hear he was no longer with Parkinson. She was still bitter about not becoming the next Mrs. Malfoy.
I needed to keep moving, not wanting to be caught by Flinch or even worst Snape. While he was more kinder towards me, he would no doubt take great delight in taking points away from Gryffindor and giving me a weeks worth of detention for being out after curfew.
I turned to leave and smacked right into someone...
Quickly I stepped back and stared up into the last person I wanted to see. Draco, god knows how long he had been standing behind me was staring at me with an unreadable stare.
Flustered I said. "What are you doing here?"
He raised an eyebrow but otherwise showed no other emotion. "I'm a prefect Harry, I can be out you on the other hand can't." He pointed out with a smirk.
"Are you going to give me over to Snape?" I asked him still trying to regain my composure. I hadn't been this near him for almost two months and now that he was it was overwhelming.
Draco shook his head and took a step closer. I took a step back. "You're not scared of me Harry?" He asked, almost scornfully.
I narrowed my eyes and glared up at him. "No."
"Then why did you back away?"
I didn't answer and his smirk broaden. Rolling my eyes I remembered how much of insufferable jerk he could be. "So if your not going to tell on me, then I'll be going, goodnight Draco." I sidestepped him and took two steps away from him before he reached out and grabbed my wrist.
"Why are you leaving so soon?" Draco asked as if were the most normal thing in the world.
"Because I'm sleepy." It wasn't a complete lie either, I was a little bit drowsy. But Draco didn't care for my tiredness and forced me closer to him.
"I've missed you."
Maybe I was dreaming and any minute now I would wake. Draco brought the hand he wasn't using to cup the side of my face and I knew it wasn't a dream anymore. "I really have." He whispered before he bent down and captured my lips in a gentle kiss.
I was in bliss, in that moment the sky could have been falling and I wouldn't know it. All I knew were Draco's lips which I had been deprived of for almost two months. He ran his lips slowly over mine while his hand let go of my wrist and moved to my back to bring me closer. It was in those movements that brought me back and I pushed away from him.
"No." I said so quietly that I doubt Draco even heard it but I did hear his sigh of disappointment.
I started to walk away again when this time he wrapped his arms around me resting his head on my shoulder so that his lips grazed my face as he spoke. "Stop running, you know you want it." The slytherin whispered in my ear, placing a kiss on my neck that sent shivers down my body. "Tell me you want me Harry." Another kiss was placed on my neck.
I was fighting a losing battle and both my heart and body knew it. I had yearned for this many nights and I couldn't deny it anymore. "Say it Harry... Say you want me."
I moaned softly. "I want you." And with that I sealed it, there was no going back now. I twisted around in his arms and I cover his lips with my own. But it was not a soft kiss, it was demanding kiss. I was pouring out all my desire and want for him in this kiss and he had no trouble responding to it fully.
Only when air was necessary did we break apart. "Come to my room." It wasn't even a questions.
Our clothes were thrown carelessly around the room. It hadn't taken long for either of us to come the first time, the second time we took it slower, touching and tasting more, prolonging the on-coming orgasm. Now I was stretched out on top of Draco, the bedsheets barely covering us, and I was placing kisses on his bare chest. He reached out and ran his hand through my hair and smiled at me. I moved up and kissed him softly, enjoying the feeling of his tongue in my mouth. After the kiss ended I laid beside him and Draco wrapped his arms around my waist so that my head rested on his shoulder.
"Wouldn't it be great if we never had to leave the room." Draco said rubbing circles into my back.
I smiled and nodded. "We wouldn't have to worry about anything, just eating and sleeping."
"And having sex with me of course."
"The best part." I laughed and placed a kiss on his neck.
There was another silence, a comfortable one when Draco spoke again. "Do you ever think about running away?"
The question surprised me and I picked my head up to look at him. There was no jesting in his question, nothing but seriousness. And I wondered why he was asking this.
Nonetheless I answered him truthfully. "Yes, when the pressure becomes too much sometimes I think about it. But I know I'll never run away. I can't run away and just leave knowing they could die because I'm weak."
"But you're not weak."
"Sometimes I am." I nodded.
Draco ran his hand through my hair again. "You're not weak to me." I found myself smiling at him.
"Why did you ask that? Do you think about it?"
He hesitated before answering. "Yeah..." He trailed off before he even began.
We made love two more times and around 4 in the morning Draco fell asleep and I watched him, knowing that in the morning he would wake to find me gone. I stayed till I was truly sure he was in a deep sleep before carefully getting out of bed and putting my clothes back on.
Before I left I knelt by his bedside and watched him. I tucked a stray hair behind his ear and kissed his forehead. "I love you." I whispered and left the room shutting the door quietly behind.
A/n- Another chapter people. God I'm horrible... I haven't been updating and I blame it solely on school and college preparation. I seriously think that all the stress has given me writer's block. This chapter alone was re-written ten-thousand ways! The ending is completely from the first time I wrote it on paper.
To all those who read my other stories sorry. I've been trying to write the Love Forbidden epilogue, really I have but the writer's block is still there. Don't worry I'm working on it. To those who read the Echo's of the Past you'll be happy to hear that I'm on page four and still going. Wonder What's Next is getting a make-over.
Merry late Christmas to everyone, hopefully you all got what you wanted! And if I don't update before the end of the year Happy New Year... Can you believe we'll be in 2005!
Onward to Thank yous!
Storytime Lady- Aw my lovely Sam! Changed the name once again I see... You my dear have serious personality problems. Lol just kidding ;-)! So m'dear did you like the chapter? Oh and the reason I hadn't told you I updated was because you had your own problems to worry about and didn't need me to bother you about my stupid little story when you were worrying about your mum. But now everything is better so I'll start bugging you again! Hehe I'm evil.... ;-)
driven to insanity- Aw I'm happy to hear you still feel special but you always review my stories so it was deserved. Did you like this one? How was your Christmas?
Elebereth- Thank you so much! Enjoy the chapter!
still awed (silver emerald eyes)- You know love you are becoming one of my favorite reviewers, please don't stop and don't worry about the length or if you think you're babbling. I love long reviews and I love reading what you have to say. And yes you made me smile so stop blinking like an owl, it's unbecoming of you dear. What was the horror movie you were watching and I'll let you in on a secret most horror movies make me laugh... I almost died with Dawn of the Dead. Really the only movie that had me really scared was SAW. But moving on I'm so happy that I can get that kind of reaction out of someone from simply reading my story... Really makes me feel special because some times I really wonder why people read my stories? Oh and you're going to kill me but I started to write this story around one and didn't go to bed till like 2:20 in the morning... Hehe I know it's not good but I write best at night. I hope you liked this chapter and remember I don't mind your ranting. Oh and by the way you're older then me I'm only 17 turning 18 in a few weeks... January 6. Love ya, hope you had a nice Christmas... Ciao!
