Disclaimer: If I owned the characters, I'd own Rocky from the Rocky Horror Picture show. And all of the clothing that the Dr. owns. Damn it, Janet!
Warning: OOC-ness. I know some of you hate it. Too bad! (Laughs maniacly) Slash is a mash of two guys. I like it. Do you? Slight swearing.
A/N: Well I had to come up with my own title. Thanks. For nothing! I kid. I love my beta K.Krum! She makes the world turn, turn, turn! I'm guessing nobody noticed the / I put after I said slash in the warning in chapter 4. It went along the lines of "Yadda yadda yadda, slash./" It was too subtle.
Chapter 6: Flaming Frost
After watching HOUSE for a few hours (of course Harry has season 1 on DVD. Damn him!) Harry decided to start putting up decorations for the upcoming party. Draco decided to go and find Remus, and get started on the collage. He went upstairs, and knocked on Remus and Sirius door again. Some one inside told him to hold on a minute. As he was waiting, he noticed the engravings in the door. It seemed to be two dogs howling to the moon. 'Well that would be appropriate, seeing as Remus is a werewolf and Sirius animagus form is a dog.' Draco was taken away from the thoughts as Sirius opened the door and pulled him into the room. "Do you have the pictures?" Draco was rather anxious, as he hadn't seen a flash of a camera at all during the day.
"Yes, yes, yes. I put a no-flash spell so you wouldn't know when I took them," Remus seemed to read the blondes mind. Draco blushed as he took a look at the photos.
"These are GORGEOUS!" There were many pictures, all completely perfect. In every one, Harry and Draco looked completely handsome (perty!) and very much in love. Going through the pile, the silver-eyed boy found his favourite. It was of Harry and himself feeding eachother heartshaped chocolates, dusted in cinnamon. They both had a look of utter admiration, and seemed to be entranced by the others' eyes.
"Remus, you could be a professional photographer!" Draco was amazed at the quality.
"Thanks, but I only took one or two. Sirius here took most of them." Sirius blushed.
"Sirius! If you weren't an escaped convict you could open a shop!"
"O, I have a shop. Well sort of. You know the photo company Pawprint?" That's mine. People write to me and tell me what they want photographed, painted, drawn, etc. They send the money, and I send them back their order."
"That's bloody amazing! Is that what that locked room is? Your studio?"
"One of them. That particular room is for my more…ahem, adult works…"
"Ooooo, I see." Draco grinned. "Maybe I'll hire you in a few years!" Remus and the blonde laughed while Sirius turned crimson again, and started to speak.
"Maybe!" Draco and Remus stopped laughing. "I'm kidding, bloody hell. I also bought you some marerial for the backing. Here is some of that dark blue velvet you liked, the same that is on our chair. I also have silver and red ribbons, and these little heart pins. I though they were rather fetching. O, by the way, you guys can use magic here. It's part of Remus' and my birthday present for Harry. The magic wards won't be able to tell. So here are a few spells to help with the pictures. You already know the sticking charm, but the rusting charm is a nifty one. It rusts the edges of the picture, or rather makes them seem that way. Ferrugo Ora. Another is Infusco Produxi, which will make it black and white. If you need any others, feel free to ask. Remus is going to take Harry to the store soon. It's tradition since last year. Remus takes Harry to the candy shoppe in Diagon Alley, and buys him as much candy and such as he wants. It should give you a good hour and a half." Sirius took a deep breath before letting Remus speak.
"I'm taking Harry now, so come and say good bye. You can come back up here afterwards. Sirius won't mind helping with the layout." Draco nodded to his old DADA teacher and followed him down the carpeted stairs to wish his boyfriend goodbye.
As soon as Harry and Remus had flooed away, Draco bolted back to Harry's Godfathers' room. Sirius was there, starting to attach the blue velvet over a piece of board. Together they made an argyle pattern with the silver and red ribbons, using the heart pins to keep where the ribbons met in place. They then started to attach the pictures to the board, having the ones of them together on the outside line, them individually in the middle line, and in the center the picture of Draco, Harry, and the chocolate. Draco decided that the four pictures in the corners would have the rust effect, and that two pictures of Draco by himself would be black and white, above and below the center picture, and two pictures of Harry by himself would be black and white, on either side of the center picture. There was a total of 25 pictures used, in a 5x5 shape. For a final touch, Sirius cast a spell to make the whole thing glitter.
"It looks gorgeous!" Draco couldn't believe how well the collage had come out. Harry was going to love it! His attention caught on a small, almost unnoticable blue pawprint, which was in the right bottom corner of each picture. "Hey, Sirius, is that pawprint your signature?" Draco tilted his head at the dog.
"What? O, ya. That would be it. Moony came up with it actually. He was always the smart one." Sirius grinned widely, and perked his ears suddenly. "They're home! Hurry, get this into your room. Move it!" Draco picked up the gift and made a dashed into his room. He had just enough time to put the present in his closet and put a locking spell on it before Harry walked in.
"Hey Draco, what was with the running around? I could hear you two floors down," Harry looked around suspiciously. He looked Draco straight in the eyes. The blonde, still having amazing talent in concealing his emotions, stared right back.
"O, I was running down the hallways for exercise…haven't gotten much lately. Not much to do 'round here to work out. No quidditch pitch…" He trailed off, suddenly looking upset. How he missed quidditch! Woe is he! Harry, unfortunately for himself, fell for the charade.
"Draco, hon, we have a gym. Third door on the right in the attic. You can use it anytime." The blonde game Harry a hug, and kissed him lightly on the lips. "I should give you tips more often!" They both laughed, and went to Harry's room. It was not, as Draco expected, Gryfffindor colors, like he had assumed about Remus and Sirius' room. It was pretty much the same as the older mens actually. Harry motioned for Draco to sit on the bed, as he layed on his stomach next to the blonde, his feet in the air, ankles crossed, chewing on a pen. "So we have to figure out what we are going to tell everybody tomorrow," Harry began. Draco gave his boyfriend a questioning look.
"Tell everybody about what?"
"Um, hmm, let me see…maybe the fact that Hogwarts' biggest arch enemies are now an item? And not only an item, but perfect, in all sense of the world, for eachother?"
"O. That. Heh heh." Draco blushed before continuing. "Well let's have some humor. It may be pretty harsh on them, but you know, I don't really care."
"Actually, I like that idea. So how does this sound…?" The boys were working for about half an hour when Sirius called them down.
When they arrived to the main floor, Dumbledore was sitting on a rich colored, leather armchair, sipping iced tea out of a straw. You see, Grimmauld Place has this effect on people. An obsession with iced tea. And chocolate. And cinnamon. And men. Anyway, the teens pulled up chairs to the headmaster and listened intently to what he had to say.
"Draco, I have informed your friends of your relationship. Oddly enough, they said they saw it coming. The jounals are ready to use, and I daresay you already have a message from all of them in it. Harry, I have made another journal for you. Harry, my boy, I have told Miss Granger and Mr. Weasley about you and Draco being an "item," as they say these days. One of the two didn't take the news well." He looked at the brunette.
"Ron. I didn't expect him to understand," Harry sighed, shaking his head.
"Quite the contrary, Harry. Ron took it exceptionally well. He was also given a journal. I'm starting to think they were a bad idea. The professors will go mad… Well, Hermione was the one who was upset. She said something along the lines of, "I can't believe that git! When I said inter-house unity I didn't mean he should go off and snog Draco Malfoy!" Of course, she used words that were a bit more, colourful, you could say." Dumbledore smiled pleasently. Harry's jaw was dropped so low, it was probably dislocated.
"HERMIONE didn't get it? Bu- how-wha?" Stutter, stutter, stutter, stutter.
"Harry, it's okay. It's Granger. She'll get over it," Draco attempted to make the other boy feel better, but, it didn't work. Instead Harry dropped to the floor in dead faint. I wonder who's going to be the dominant in this story…?
"Draco, would you mind informing Harry that both Ron and Hermione will be attending the celebration tomorrow? My thanks. Now, could you be as kind as to bring Harry to his room? Sirius, Remus, and I have some buisness to discuss." With that he walked to the kitchen, leaving Draco to bring the brunette to his room.
The next morning the sun shone brightly through Draco's window. Or rather, it was 5:30 in the morning, the sun wasn't up, and Draco had cast an alarm clock spell on himself the previous night. He took a bath with his own supply of cinnamon shampoo and conditioner and chocolate body wash (curtesy of Harry) and took a shower. He quickly got dressed into his workout clothes, and went up to the attic, third door on the right.
The rest of the house awoke to the high pitched screams of a certain blonde teenager.
As Sirius and Remus raced to the attic, (both in matching black silk tight boxers that had two silver pawprint on the back, might I add) Harry laughing hysterically behind them.
"Draco! Calm down! It's okay! HARRY!" Of course, Harry didn't hear Sirius. He was laughing to damn hard.
"Draco, who told you to go to this room? What did you think it was?" Draco had finally stopped his (girlish) screaming, and managed to reply.
"HE (pointing to Harry) told me this was the gym!" The blonde was still shaking. Harry was, of course, still laughing hysterically, tears pouring down his face.
"He wouldn't tell me what he was up to yesterday, so I…(smirking) told him that this was the gym, and unlocked it at 2 this morning! Teach him to lie to me!" Harry was finally coming down, his cheeks a deep red.
"Oh that was kind of you, Harry, telling him to go to my adult painting studio!" Sirius was trying hard not to laugh, and failing miserably. Even Remus couldn't supress a grin. "Hey! How was I supposed to know that Draco doesn't look at wizarding porn?"
"As a matter of fact I just last week saw a picture of you in Quidditch Sticks magazine!" Harry went white.
"I. Am. Going. To. KILL. That. Bitch." And Harry ran to get paper and pen. "Let's see now…
Dear Mis-use of Magic office,
I would like to inform you that Rita Skeeter, a reporter for the newpaper The Daily Prophet, is an unregistered animagus. She takes the form of a June bug beetle-ish type creature. I discovered this a year ago, but felt it was my duty to report it to you.
Sincerely,
Harry J. Potter…Much better." Harry placed the letter into an envelope, and gave it to Hedwig to fly to the Ministy of Magic. She just happened to be there.
"So you are finally giving that girl what she deserves?"
"Yep, Moony, I am. So Draco, did you like that picture?"
"Hey, I don't wank and tell." At this comment, the older men pretended to gag and ran out of the room to get dressed.
"So follow me Frost, and we can work out together." Harry motioned for his man to follow him.
"Frost?" Harry nodded. "OK then, my Flame, lead the way." Harry nodded approvingly and walked a few doors down to the left.
"This is the workout room. It has every possible machine known to wizard kind. And probably more. You saw Padfoot and Moony back there. They are MUSCLE!" They both laughed, and the brunette started a routine, which the blonde followed for the hell of it.
The boys finished working out in a bit. Harry went to take a bath before the party, and Draco took a quick shower. When he was down, his Flame was still bathing, so he wrapped his gift in (sparkly rainbow) wrapping paper. He finished just in time to see Harry walking down the hallway.
"That my present you got there, Frost?"
"Why yes Flame. It is. Are we going to be doing the whole using nicknames incessantly just to piss everyone off?"
"Nah. I just like the way it sounds. Frost." Harry smirked, which Draco and every Draco/Harry reader must admit, is dead sexy. (of course Draco's smirk is hotter.)
And as the chapter closes, they share a passionate kiss, with tongues intertwined, smiling into the others mouth.
A/N: And another chapter closes. Hehe. I thought this was by far the best chapter. I attempted to use humor, which personally, I thought was affective. Of course, you lovely reviewers need to decide! So I had to come up with a new title all by my lonesome savvy. Which means I get the picture of Harry and Draco kissing, which coincidently, was taken by our beloved Sirius Black! Hehe. I get chocolate cinnamon cookies. : )
