Harry awoke the next morning to the roars of laughter that were erupting from the bed across from his. "Oh my God Harry your awake!" roared Seamus
Finnigan, a fellow Gryffindor who was in the bed on the other side of the room from Harry's. "Whats going on?" said Harry puzzled, his hand fumbling around on
his nightstand for his glasses. Ron's usual pale face was a deep shade of red and violent fits of laughter were escaping his lips. "Harry you were moaning in your
sleep about five minutes ago. It was complete nonsense!" Harry could feel his face becoming hot, "What was I moaning...exactly?" Hopefully he hadnt admitted
anything in his sleep - about Draco. Ron crinkled his nose and let out a snort of laughter, "It was complete rubbish Harry. But you were all like, " Ron continued
to a dreamy voice which could be compared to Professor Trelawney's, " 'Oh God Draco...Oh yes...Draco...Oh...' " his voice then changed back to normal,
"Harry it sounded like you and Draco were um...experimenting." Seamus and Ron both burst out into laughter, and Neville Longbottom, a normally shy and
quiet Gryffindor joined in. "It's true Harry. It sounded rather odd." he said, gently stroking his pet toad, Trevor, who was happily sitting in his lap.
Harry forced out a laugh, "Ron that's ridiculous, you know I'd never do anything like that. That's terribly disgusting!" Ron tried to choke down a giggle, "I know!
Thats what makes it so funny! You and Malfoy! God could you imagine! 'Oh Harry...yes...yes! OH GOD!' " Ron started making rude sexual motions and
Seamus exploded into laughter again, "STOP IT! THE IMAGES IN MY BRAIN! QUIT IT!" his face was bright red and he rolled over onto his bed,
practically falling on the floor. Harry smiled, "Yeah. Right." He rose from his bed and quickly got dressed, leaving the others in the dormitory, howling with laughter.
He made his way downstairs to the common room where he found Hermione sitting in a lopsided armchair, her nose in a book called "Pixies, fairies,
and other fascinating creatures of the Magical World, by Europa Butterfield." "Is that very interesting?" said Harry leaning over her shoulder.
Hermione jumped, "Hm? OH! Yes! Sorry Harry, didnt see you there. Yes it is quite interesting, I'm catching up on my knowledge of the fire pixie, I think I
found a few this morning floating around by the fireplace over there. I thought they were flies at first but I came in closer and they had tiny little human like
faces...I then realized they were some kind of pixie, and I just had to look it up immediately. You really ought to read this book sometime, its quite interesting"
"I think I'll pass," muttered Harry as he heard Ron coming down the stairs. "Sorry about that mate, " said Ron patting Harry on the shoulder, "Just couldnt help it you know? It was so out of the ordinary"
Hermione looked up from her book, "What was?" "Nothing," said Ron stifling a giggle, "Lets go to breakfast I'm starved."
Down in the Great Hall the trio joined Seamus and Neville at their usual table. Harry helped himself to some eggs and a bit of sausage, when he could feel
someone watching him. He looked up, and from across the table, he could see Draco sitting with is cronies, Crabbe and Goyle. Draco shot Harry a quick smile
and continued to join in active conversation with Pansy Parkinson who was sitting next to him, comically batting her eyelashes. Ron noticed Harry staring at
something and he turned around and spotted Draco and his group. "Them lot," he said shaking his head, "They think they own the school." "What do you expect?
Draco's father practically throws money at Hogwarts and every other magical organization. So he pretty much does own it...technically speaking." said Hermione, taking a bite out of her blueberry muffin.
After breakfast, they made their way to their usual morning classes until it was time for lunch. "I'm not very hungry." said Harry, and he said goodbye to his
friends and departed for the common room. He had alot of thinking to do. Just as he was about to climb the stairs, a hand landed on his shoulder, and he wheeled
around, coming face to face with Draco. "Where do you think your going Potter?" he said smirking. Harry heard a few low guffaws coming from behind
Draco, and he tilted his head and saw Crabbe and Goyle standing there with dumb expressions on both of their faces. "C-c-common room," said Harry, "I'm not very hungry"
"Oh really?" said Draco, "You cant skip lunch"
"Who says I cant?" said Harry, balling his hands up into fists. Crabbe and Goyle
started snickering even louder, and Crabbe whispered to Draco, "Get him mate"
"Well, well, well?" said Draco, "Looks like we have a rebel here. You know
what I like to do with rebels, Potter?" Draco leaned in so close, that his lips were lightly brushing against Harry's ear, "I like to spank them." he whispered. Harry
tried hard not to laugh, "Well it looks like your going to get your way," said Harry in a dissapointed voice, "Do what you must." "Good," said Draco, "I've beaten
Potter." He grabbed Harry's arm and pulled him down the hallway, away from
Crabbe and Goyle who were still guffawing and making stupid motions with their hands. When they reached the end of the hallway, Draco let go of Harry's arm,
"Sorry Potter, but I had to keep up my act infront of them. Can't let them know I've gone soft on you right?" his lips curled into a smile. He put a long arm around
Harry, "So about last night," he said, gently kissing Harry's cheek, "I'm sorry if I got a bit testy with you." Harry smiled, "It's alright, the kiss afterwards made up
for it." Draco smiled triumphantly, "Good," he said, "I'm glad you liked it." He leaned in towards Harry, "Oh I did," said Harry softly as his lips met Draco's.
"Harry?" said two voices in unison behind him. Harry's eyes shot open and he pushed Draco away, wiping his mouth. "Yeah?" he said spinning around, only to
end up face to face with Fred and George Weasley. "What the bloody hell are you two doing?" the twins said together again, Fred nudged his twin and smirked,
"Looks like they were kissing." Draco scoffed, "Yeah right, like I'd ever kiss Potter. What have you two been smoking?" he said, a nasty smile on his lips.
"What have we been smoking?" said George looking at his twin, "Honestly how can you make such accusations."
"How about what have you been smoking," said Fred, George nodding in agreement, "Looks like you two were a little busy just before we interuppted"
"I dont have time for this nonsense." said Draco eyeing the twins with a malevolent look in his eye, "I have to get to potions." And with that, he turned on his heel and swept off down to the dungeons. Fred and George both snickered,
"Harry, Harry, Harry," said George shaking his head, "This is going to cost you BIG." "Please, dont tell anyone," said Harry in desperation, "No one can know.
Please dont tell anyone." Fred and George looked at eachother, "Should we let him off easy?" said Fred smiling. "No," said George, "Not this time." he turned to
Harry, a devlish grin forming on his lips, "Meet us after dinner in the common room for your proper instructions." And with that, both of the twins turned on their heels and headed down the hall.
Harry just stood there, frozen. He couldnt believe what just happened, Fred and George knew, and soon would the whole school. He just knew he had to do whatever they had in mind, he couldnt break his promise to Draco.
