Chapter seven!
Okay so freaking cut out the link to see Darren so it will be in my profile if you wanna see him.
Kay here goes… I own nothing.
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
Harry and Draco just stood gaping at each other.
Well there was a one in six billion chance that they would meet up… I would be surprised too.
Then Harry began to panic.
'Crap! I have such a good life here! He's going to make it miserable just like at Hogwarts! SHIT SHIT SHIT!'
"Harry are you alright?" asked Darren a little warily.
"Y-yeah I'm fine." He said a little breathless.
Even if it was Draco Malfoy… it was still nice to see someone from home.
Steve and Draco were walking over through all the mindless dancers. Draco's eyes were wide and shiny.
"Harry? Harry Potter?" he whispered when he got to the cat boy and the pirate.
Harry was surprised at how gentle Malfoy was being… maybe in this life they could be friends?
"Draco this is Darren—" he pointed to the cat boy who still looked a little confused, but he smiled and said hi anyways. "— and Harry… but it seems like the two of you have already met." Steve stated, smiling.
The two were still staring at each other in awe.
"Ooooooooooookaaaaaaaaaay…" Darren muttered awkwardly. Then walked up to Steve and stood in his toes to whisper something in Elvis's ear.
Steve listened and then straightened up, clearing his voice. "Me and Darren are going to go buy a drink and catch up… you guys can catch up as well!"
And then the two were gone in a flash.
Draco smirked.
"I knew you'd be a hobo someday Potter." He sneered.
Harry felt his anger come back full force.
"Fuck you Malfoy, I'm glad you don't go to my school so I don't have to deal with your pathetic existence every day." He spat back.
Draco laughed. "Actually Potter… you will have to bask in my greatness." Then his face fell a little. "The family I'm staying with isn't the richest family around, and they can't afford to stay in the house they are in now, we are moving to the housing complexes down by the Co-op."
Harry groaned.
Draco's face flushed. "Deal with it Potter, from what I can tell you and me will be spending quite a bit of time together. Since you hang out with Darren you must hang out with Dominic and Adalei as well. They hang out with Steve and me when they aren't with you and prissy Cat boy."
"Do NOT insult him, he is a much bigger man they you will ever be!"
There was a circle around them now.
"Want to bet on that Potty boy?" Draco sneered.
The sparks were literally flying.
……………………………………………………………………………………………
Steve and Darren were walking slowly down an empty hallway on the second floor of the school.
"So what do you think of Harry?" Asked the cat boy with a sweet smile.
Steve looked down at his friend. "He seems like a good guy for you."
Darren blushed. "Ummm…. We uh… aren't together."
"Oh… but you like him right? That even I could see." Steve was starting to get uncomfortable with the topic.
As you know Darren and Steve were the best of friends, like brothers really… Then one day out of the blue Darren scared Steve off… by telling him he had a crush on him.
Steve wasn't homophobic; he just was really uncomfortable around homosexuals. If the guys are just faking to gross some people out by holding hands or hugging a lot then he would go right along with it. But once it got serious he was out of there.
"I miss you Steve…" Darren whispered in a choked voice. "I don't see why… why we can't still be friends."
Steve didn't know what to do.
"We are still friends… just not as close as we used to be… I'm sorry Darren, I'm just not comfortable around you alone anymore."
A silent tear ran down poor cat boys face.
"Umm…" Elvis was very uncomfortable now. "Darren, are you alright?"
Darren quickly wiped his face and looked up smiling. "Yeah! Never better! Want to go back to the dance now? See how those two are doing?"
He started walking briskly towards the nearest staircase.
Steve sighed "Darren? Wait up."
"Would you and Harry like to come to my Halloween party I'm holding after the dance tonight? Draco, Dominic and Adalei will be there, along with maybe five others."
Darren looked absolutely stoked! "Okay! Ill ask Harry! What all will we be doing?"
They started walking down the stairs.
"Oh the regular party stuff, I have a whole hoard of candy and I can lynch a bit of my dads alcohol—"
Darren made a face at that, he didn't like alcohol.
"Truth or Dare, spin the bottle, whatever anybody suggests I guess."
As they got closer to the Gymnasium they heard a commotion, probably a fight.
Steve and Darren looked at each other and smiled a mischievous smile, and ran inside to 'help' the fight.
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
Sparks were coming out of Harry's fingers and Draco's hair was sparking they were both so angry. They were throwing insults at each other.
"Oh and your mudblood friend Granger probably has more STI's then I have hairs on my head she sleeps around so much."
Now that blew Harry off his rocker. "How DARE you say that about her, just because your jealous of her brilliance! How about you get a fucking life asshole!" Harry yelled at Draco moving up into his face. He was smart enough not to use his wand or his magic and was trying extremely hard not no just… explode!
Then he felt a hand on his shoulder. "Harry! Why are you and Draco fighting!" Darren asked him sternly.
Steve was interrogating Draco just as Darren was interrogating him.
"Me and him weren't really… friends back in school in London."
Darren was quiet, gazing at Draco.
He had never seen Harry explode like that? Maybe it was only towards this attractive blonde boy. He really couldn't see how they could be enemies, from their personalities it looked to him like they would be close friends.
"One second Harry I'm going to go talk to him and Steve okay?"
With that Darren trotted off.
Harry was still steaming, but he was glad he exploded like that… it made him feel so much better!
He saw the three boys talking together, Draco looking less and less angry. When eventually they all came over to where he was swaying with the music.
"Harry? I'm… I'm sorry. Will you forgive me?" Draco said actually very sincerely… which surprised the hell out of Harry. Draco held out his hand and the pirate warily took it. "Truce?"
A few pregnant seconds passed, with Darren and Steve holding their breath, when Harry smiled and took the blonde boys hand. "Okay Draco… truce."
…………………………………………………………………………………..
Harry and Darren had lost Draco and Steve in the hustle and bustle of the dance and decided to boogey by themselves. Draco and Harry still seemed tense, but they were being civil… mostly.
A slow love song came on, and Harry stopped dancing and went to go sit down on a chair, when Darren grabbed his hand, smiled cutely and jokingly asked in a nerdy, nasally voice. "Umm… Harry would you like to umm… dance with me."
For some reason this made Harry Laugh his ass off, but he nodded his head and 'tried' to slow dance with Darren.
Darren was moving in big dramatic sweeping moves and Harry was just tumbling all over the place.
Then suddenly Harry literally tripped over his own feet and fell against Darren.
He could feel every muscle on the lean boy through the tight cat suit.
Both boys' hearts began to beat a little faster.
"Whoa there Harry you alright?" Darren asked in a soft voice.
"Yeah I'm fine… just my pride is wounded. He stood up straight and straightened his clothes. His face was red in embarrassment and confusion.
Darren stepped a little closer and wrapped his arms around Harry's neck and buried his face in his shoulder. And they began to actually slow dance.
'I really do hope he doesn't shun me like Steven did…' Darren thought, becoming very excited at being so close to Harry that he had to move away a little so Harry couldn't feel how truly excited he was.
'Do Canadian friends do this all the time? I think so… it must be, Darren was a very friendly guy. A very nice looking guy too… in that cat outfit he was OKAY Harry! Stop thinking like that! He's your friend… friend only!" Harry scrunched his eyes and shook his head. He felt Darren move a little farther away and was disappointed and glad he did at the same time. Disappointed because he liked being that close to him, and glad because if Darren stayed where he was he was going to have to have a cold shower when he got home.
He saw Steve dancing with a small blonde girl in one of those sluttish bunny suits. And he saw Draco standing by himself in the corner, looking a little disappointed.
Now fully distracted he had forgotten all about his dilemma with Darren.
"Hey Darren, Draco's over there all by himself, we should ask him to dance with us!" he suggested with a smile.
Darren laughed and nodded, it was dark, no one would see his… problem and by the time they left he would have calmed down.
The two boys waltzed over to Draco's corner, laughing at their stupid ness and asked Draco to dance.
………………………………………………………………………………………
He had been through some shit lately… but who hasn't? That's why he exploded on Harry like he did. Now he was sitting in the corner by himself wondering if his only companion from home would ever really accept him.
He sighed. He knew he had a temper that would have been good if he wanted to be a death eater but really he didn't want to be one, he wanted to follow his own road.
And Harry? Well he always respected Harry, now was the best time to show it. Because there were no Crabbe and Goyle to tell their fathers to get him in trouble.
He didn't really know how to drop the bad ass act though.
But life was good here, he had to say.
He saw Harry and Darren Dancing together and smiled to himself.
He could see that Harry was attracted to Darren, and Darren liked Harry. But who wouldn't? They were both very attractive young men.
He was losing himself in his own thoughts when he heard two people laughing nearby and saw Darren and Harry nearly rolling on the ground laughing… at what? He would never know.
"Draaaaaaaaaacoooooooo!" sang Darren while batting his eyelashes.
The DJ put on a faster song and Harry said. "Would you like to dance with us?" and smiled, holding out his hand.
Draco looked at it for a second then took it, letting the two boys pull him into the whirlwind of dancing teenagers.
All three of them got lost in the music. And eventually lost each other and by the end of the song they couldn't find any of the other two boys.
Harry saw Steve sitting by himself and went over to talk to him.
………………………………………………………………………………………….
Draco couldn't find Harry or Darren anywhere when suddenly something grabbed his shoulders from behind, almost giving him a heart attack.
He turned around to find Darren laughing his ass off at his reaction.
"Merlin Darren you nearly killed me!"
Darren cocked his head. "You say Merlin too? Eh? I don't get it… is it a trend in Britain or something?"
Draco laughed at this.
"Want to grab a bite to eat?" he asked the smaller boy.
Who answered very energetically. "YES! I'm starved."
…
They got to the cafeteria and both ordered hotdogs and started making their way to a table, which was rather difficult because the place was jam packed.
Draco was leading the way. "So where do you usually sit in here?"
Darren pointed. "In that corner there."
It took awhile but they were about halfway there when the one and Only Jeremy stood up and 'accidentally' bumped Darren into the back of Draco.
Draco was very surprised, not just because he had Darren flat against his back but he also has something, poking him in the upper thigh.
Darren moaned softly and his knees nearly gave out.
Draco pulled away and smiled in a sort of confused way at Darren. "Ummm… are you okay?"
Darren was to embarrassed to answer, he turned to go the other way but there were to many people in the way so he quickly mad his way to the table, which surprisingly was empty.
"Darren, may I ask what that was about…?" asked Draco, also embarrassed by the whole ordeal
Darren blushed and looked down at his plate "umm I ummm… I was thinking ummm…"
Then the doctor had a sly look on his face, "You were thinking about Harry weren't you! Im right! I am!"
Darren just blushed harder and nodded. They spent the rest of the night talking about Harry and relationships… and best of all, sex.
…………………………………………………………………….
It was about ten o'clock when the dance ended and Everyone met outside on the front steps.
All the people that Harry knew there were Darren, Steve, Draco and Dominic. There were five or six others who were Steve's friends.
"Harry did Darren ask you yet?"
Harry was confused. "Ask me what?"
Steve gave Darren a mock angry look and smiled. "Would you like to come to the Halloween party I'm throwing tonight?"
Oh Harry had never been more excited, he had never been invited to a party before. "Sure! Is everyone here going?"
"Yup!" said Dominic, who was dressed as a gypsy. Adalei had to baby-sit her little sister tonight so that's why she wasn't there.
A big Van pulled up and a hippie poked his head out. "This Stevies crew?" he hollered.
Steve just opened the van door and ushered everyone in.
