And now, chapter 15! Here's where Draco gets really confused. Poor thing! /pats Draco head/

Chap. 15 – Hold On My Heart

When Draco picked up his cell phone, he was still trying to make sense of the world around him. Harry's kiss had knocked him off his feet. He wanted to purr and rub against Harry like a cat. He certainly didn't want to let go of Harry, but he answered his cell phone automatically. One of the bad things about being an Auror – he should always be ready for action. Until a second before, he had been floating and it had felt wonderful. But the moment he heard Bill's voice, it was like a cold shower, and to come back to reality was rather painful.

He was so nervous that he almost dropped his cell phone on the floor. He barely listened to what Bill was saying, but when he heard that someone had tried to rob Gringotts, Draco switched his dreamy mode to his alert Auror's mode. He had to go. He was worried about Bill. He needed to see if Bill was all right. Bill sounded terribly upset on the phone, so Draco just wanted to make sure that nothing had happened to him.

His eyes met Harry's. How he wished he could stay. Harry looked so tempting, like he would do anything Draco wanted. He hung up and put the little cell phone back in his pocket. He then took a deep breath and looked at Harry again.

Harry's face was erotically flushed. Actually, everything about Harry seemed erotic after that breathtaking kiss. The green eyes were dilated and the ruby lips were swollen. Draco bit his lower lip hard so he wouldn't moan at the tempting vision of a naked Harry Potter spread on his bed with that same look on his face. He had dreamed about that moment for so long. Harry looked so docile, so thunderstruck. He blinked in order to focus on Bill and his work.

Draco felt suddenly shy, like he didn't know what to do or say. Harry was trying to avoid his eyes, and that was bothering him. But he didn't have time to confront Harry now.

"I…" he stared, clearing his throat as his voice caught in it. "I have to go. Someone tried to break into Gringotts."

Harry immediately looked up. "What? Is anyone hurt? What did they tell you?"

"As far as I know, nobody is hurt. But I have to go there and check. It seems that whoever it was that tried to rob the bank used dark magic, so they want my presence there to help with the investigation."

Harry nodded. "Keep me informed. It's never good news when someone is using dark magic."

Normally, Draco would never have given away information about one of his investigations, but he couldn't say that to Harry. After all, Harry had Voldemort in his background. He knew all about dark magic; of course Harry would be concerned if someone was using it again. Besides, Draco's boss wouldn't mind him telling Harry. He would actually tell Draco to use Harry's intense knowledge and experience on the subject. That would probably irritate Draco, but he would worry about those things later.

He descended the steps and said goodbye to the girls, but not to Harry. Now that he was fully back into reality, it was hard to look at Harry. He opened the door and stepped out, but Harry's voice stopped him.

"Malfoy! Are you coming back tonight?" Harry asked.

Draco didn't turn to face him. He couldn't. He was too nervous.

"No, I don't think so." Because it would be hard to come back and face Harry after the kiss. Draco needed some time alone. "Have fun with the girls. I'm sure they will keep you entertained." And then he Apparated before he could hear Harry's reply.

He couldn't think about Harry now. He had to concentrate on other things. His work and his boyfriend were top priority. He would deal with the kiss and its consequences later. Still, no matter how many times he told himself that, his heart wouldn't keep quiet. Why did he have to tell Harry to enjoy Mindy and Cindy's company? 'Idiot!'

He climbed the steps to Gringotts' entrance and saw Bill already talking to Hermione. She seemed surprised to see him, but then she looked at Bill and wrinkled up her brows.

"Hermione, Bill. What's the news?" Draco asked hastily, stopping next to them. Usually Draco would stroke Bill's hand imperceptibly like he always did when they met in public, but this time he couldn't do it. He didn't feel like it.

Hermione seemed to be pondering her words. "Well… The case is pretty much… solved. We caught a nineteen-year-old kid and he confessed everything. He was careless and totally inexperienced. It wasn't so difficult to make him talk. Anyway, he confessed that he tried to break into the bank using dark magic, but it didn't work. It did make a huge blast in one of the walls, but now everything is ok. I didn't even need to be here. I just wanted to make sure everything was ok." Hermione, the workaholic. "I thought you wouldn't come," she finally said. And Draco could tell exactly what she was thinking next. She hadn't called him; therefore he shouldn't be there. It wasn't like Draco to be willing to work on his time off.

"I called him," Bill said. Hermione just nodded understandingly, but also curiously. She knew Draco had been seeing Bill for a while, but she didn't know how serious their relationship was. It wasn't her place to ask them. Not while Bill was there anyway.

"Ok, then. I'm done here. I need to go home. I bet Ron is making a mess in the kitchen…" She stared at Draco, then at Bill, and then back at Draco. "Call me this weekend, Draco. Are you going to spend it with Harry?"

Draco detected a flicker of jealousy in Bill's eyes. That took him by surprise. "I don't know. I guess not."

"Why not? The weekends are the worst for Harry."

Draco sniggered. "I don't think this one will be so bad. He has two girls with him, and they seem like they are going to have the time of their lives this weekend."

Hermione opened her eyes wide. "Really? Who are they?"

"Mindy and Cindy," he hissed.

"I don't know who they are…" Hermione frowned. She didn't like the implications of Draco's sentence. "Are they nice? What do they look? Where did he meet them?"

Draco just shrugged. He didn't want to talk about Harry.

"Well, at least he's ok? Do you really think it's wise to leave him alone with… those two girls?" Hermione insisted slightly irritated with Draco's aloofness.

Draco grunted. "I don't know. I'm not a Seer, am I? He seemed to be all right when I left him." No he didn't. Harry seemed terribly confused and lost. Draco shivered. Harry would be ok. He had two stupid blondes to keep him company. And Draco had been stupid enough to warm him for them. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

"Are you ok?" Bill asked, touching Draco's arm gently.

Draco looked down and he hated himself for it. "Yeah, I'm fine."

Hermione looked at them with a thoughtful expression, then she said goodbye and left. She would make sure that Harry was all right, because clearly Draco was very disturbed about something concerning Harry.

There was an awkward period of silence between Draco and Bill. Draco was suddenly feeling ill. His head was aching and he felt a pang in his chest.

Draco had really screwed things up this time. That kiss had been his damnation. He didn't know how he would look Harry in the eye now. He couldn't even lie to himself anymore. He knew for sure what he felt now. He loved Harry. The kiss had proven it.

It was so unfair. If they weren't meant to be, if they weren't soul mates, then why did Draco feel that way? He never thought he would experience an unrequited love. He wasn't that type of guy. He was supposed to be the one to break hearts. It wasn't in his plans to have his heart broken. But then again, who would plan something like that?

That was the reason why he had run away from love. It hurt so much. Now he was stuck with that horrible feeling of rejection and pain. He felt butterflies in his stomach just thinking about Harry.

And then there was Bill, his current boyfriend. What was the point of denying the obvious? Bill was his boyfriend. The truth was that Draco hadn't gone out with anyone else after he started going out with Bill. Bill was so sweet and tender with him, and he wanted them to share a life together. Draco had repaid all that kindness by kissing Harry Potter.

But then again, Bill was the only one to blame for that situation. He had practically pushed Draco onto Harry. If Bill loved him so much, he wouldn't have agreed with his family that Draco was the solution to Harry's depression. He wouldn't have allowed Draco to sleep in Harry's house.

"Mindy and Cindy, huh?" Bill said, breaking the silence.

Draco looked at him and scowled. "Do you know them?" Bill half-smiled and Draco snorted. "You do know them! Let me guess, Mindy and Cindy were probably strippers at every damn Gryffindor party. They must have slept with everyone in your bloody Common Room!"

"They are younger than me, Draco. If I had made a pass at them when I was still a Hogwarts student, I would have been arrested. I didn't meet them at Hogwarts."

"Then where? Oh, wait! That damn party Fred and George threw when they opened a branch of their joke shop! That's where you met them! They hired twin sisters to strip for them! The MC Sisters! Mindy and Cindy! I knew I should have come to that party…" Draco cursed himself in thought. "Did you fuck them?"

"No, why would I?"

"Because you swing both ways and I know what a sucker you are for blondes. I still remember Fleur, you know?"

Bill grinned at Draco. "Are you jealous?"

Draco grunted. "I'm not jealous. I'm just asking if you fucked them or not."

"I didn't. I do have a thing for blondes, but they are not my type. I'm surprised to know that they are Harry's. Harry always went for a different type of girl. He really changed…" Bill looked thoughtful. "All of my family was really looking forward to his marriage with Ginny… We were all cheering for them. But then Ginny broke the whole thing off and he was devastated… I guess that must be the reason why he picks those kinds of girls now…"

Draco took a deep breath. He didn't want to hear about Harry and Ginny. He had been devastated at the time. He didn't want to go through the same pain again. He felt even angrier with Bill for reminding him of those horrible days when he thought Harry would marry Ginny Weasley.

"Why did you send me there?" he asked quietly, his eyelashes flickering.

Bill came closer to him but didn't touch him. "What are you talking about?"

"Why did you send me to Harry? If you love me, why did you send me to another man?" Draco asked accusingly.

Bill bit his lower lip. He leaned against one of Gringotts' distorted walls and sighed. "I didn't really have a choice. My whole family was convinced that you had to go. Eventually Fred convinced me, too. I like Harry. He's a good kid. I really want to help him. But… I feel jealous of you there with him, all alone. I know what you used to feel for Harry." Bill's eyes locked in his. "If we are going to move in together, I figure you should sort out your feelings for him. You need closure. Otherwise we won't stand a chance." Bill walked towards him again and stroked his face. "Did I already lose you? In three days? What happened today?"

Draco took a step back. "Nothing extraordinary happened. We just fight, that's all. That's what we do best. We fight," he said bitterly.

"Draco…" Bill saddened.

"Bill… please." Draco closed his eyes and licked his lips. "Please, just… Why did you call me here if I wasn't needed?"

Bill smiled feebly. "You are needed, blondie. I need you."

Bill cupped Draco's face and kissed him. Draco was surprised by the sudden display of public affection. It was true that there weren't too many people around at this time of night, but Draco didn't relax. He feared that someone would react violently at the sight of two men kissing. He knew that kind of violence very well. He had experienced it more than once.

Besides, kissing Bill in public meant that their relationship was getting serious. It meant a commitment that Draco wasn't ready for, especially after kissing Harry.

But he let himself be kissed, mostly because he was feeling guilty. He knew it was stupid of him to feel that way. He blamed Bill most for the mess inside his heart and mind, but Bill's touch always seemed to calm him down.

Bill's kisses didn't make him float, but they excited him. And Draco constantly surrendered himself when Bill touched him like that. But today he was too confused.

He drew back a little and stared at Bill.

"I need to be alone right now," he muttered.

"Do you love him, Draco?"

Draco felt suddenly very cold. He wrapped his arms around himself. "What if I do?"

Bill seemed taken aback by his honesty. The redhead gulped and his fists clenched. Draco then realised that Bill was suffering with all of that. Bill's coolness was just an act.

"I guess I'm prepared for that."

Draco looked deeply inside Bill's eyes, trying to read him. "What do you mean?"

"It means that I won't give you up that easily. If you want to have a fling with Harry, then go ahead. It'll hurt a lot, but… I'll get over it. All I want is for you to get over him."

"Harry is straight. There is not even a remote possibility that he and I…"

"I know he is. I was too, not so long ago. But a certain blond made me change my mind…" Draco opened his eyes wide. "Yes, I'm talking about you."

"You said I wasn't the first guy you slept with!"

"You weren't. But you were the first to really tempt me. Do you like me, Draco?"

"Don't be stupid. If I didn't like you, I wouldn't be with you. You know I have been faithful to you."

"But not today."

Draco looked the other way. "Even today. I'm here, right?"

"You aren't here because of me but because of work."

"Dammit, Bill! What do you want from me?" Draco asked, exasperated. "You love me, but you'll let me sleep with Potter!?"

"That's because I love you too much!"

"Bullshit! I would never let…" …Harry sleep with anyone else but me. "I'd never throw the person I love in the arms of someone else. I don't understand you, Bill."

"I don't understand myself anymore. I want to see you happy, even if it is with Harry. But at the same time, I have this primitive need to have you near me, and do you know what I want to do right now? I want to take you in my arms and lock you in my room for the whole weekend."

And Draco wanted him to do just that. He wanted to forget about Harry and those feelings that were destroying him slowly. But he didn't want to use Bill like that. He was suddenly very angry with Bill, with Harry, with himself. He was confused. He needed some time alone to think things over.

"I have to go home," he said tiredly. "I'll call you." Draco turned to leave, but Bill stopped him.

"I do love you, Draco. I love you so much that I'm always thinking about your happiness first. But please, when the month is over, come back to me."

Draco's heart tightened inside his chest.

TBC …
