woo! I have finally planned out the ending to the fic and it will be ending within the next few chapters! w00t! hopefully...
Harry woke with a start, sweating and panting. He sat up straight and looked around, chest heaving. When he realized that it wasn't even Thanksgiving yet, he sighed in relief. It had never happened. He blinked and wiped some sweat from his forehead. This HAD to stop. He could NOT keep up this charade. He had to tell them the truth.
He looked out the window and saw the sun barely peeking over the trees. OH well. He would wake them up.
He got up quickly and padded out into the common room where he wrote three simple letter that each read as follows.
Meet me in the astronomy tower A.S.A.P.
-Harry
He then ran back up to his dormitory, got a change of clothes, took the shortest and most rushed shower known to mankind, and exited Gryffindor tower, making a mad dash for the owlry. He didn't get very far before he ran out of breath. He stopped, panting hard, and leant up against a statue of a centaur, whipping some sweat away that was running down his neck.
He stood there for about a minute and was about to move on when he heard two very familiar voices coming from the almost-shut classroom door that the statue was next to. He decided, against his better judgement, to investigate.
o0o
"Look, Daae, the LAST person I want to talk to right now is you, alright?" Draco snapped, crossing his arms and sitting on a rather dusty desk at the front of the abandoned classroom.
"Well, you don't have much of a choice in the matter, do you?" Damian said, sneering. "Look, I talked to Black earlier." At this, Draco's head snapped up and his eyes narrowed. "He and Harry were never together. Harry was confused about his feelings for us, so he decided to make us avoid him completely." Draco glared, not quite believing him, though he desperately wanted to.
"Look, I'm telling the truth, ok?" Damian said, angry that the boy didn't believe him.
"And why should I believe you? Hm?" Draco sneered, and Damian's nostrils flared.
"You little-" He began, coming in-between Draco's legs and pushing his face as close to Draco's as possible without kissing him. "WHY, would I lie to you about something like this? I am NOT a child! I-" Draco and Damian both looked up at the gasp they had heard from the doorway and were shocked to find Harry standing in the doorframe, tears welling in his eyes.
o0o
Harry walked up to the door and peaked in, just in time to see Damian get in-between Draco's legs. What? Harry gasped and stood in the doorway, nearly crying. Ho-how-? He thought, stuttering even in his thoughts.
Suddenly, his sad and pathetic thoughts turned to anger. How DARE they?
"How DARE you!" He screamed, watching as they both cowered in fear. A great wind suddenly rose up and began to encircle him, making his multi-colored hair fly off in all directions, and sending his robes swishing about him. "How DARE you!" He repeated, louder this time, not even noticing as his eyes and hair turned a shocking white and great clouds welled up above him. A great spurt of lightening erupted from the clouds and encircled his body.
Draco cowered in fear, but Damian looked fascinated. "Earth." He whispered.
Now Harry's eyes and hair turned a bright orange-ish red, and flames erupted from his handing, coming to join the lightening encircling his body.
"Fire." Damian whispered.
Harry's eyes and hair proceeded to turn an icy blue as water erupted from one hand and ice from the other, both coming up to encircle his body.
"Water, and ice." Damian whispered, now extremely excited.
Finally, Harry's eyes and hair turned the deepest shade of purple known to man-kind and a great black fog erupted from his fingertips, covering his body completely so neither Damian, nor Draco could see him.
"Darkness." Damian whispered triumphantly before he realized what would happen next, and threw Draco behind a desk at one end of the room, and threw himself behind one at the other.
Not seconds after he had jumped behind the desk, the cloud that covered Harry erupted, sending great waves of wind, and lightening, and fire, ice, water, and black fog zooming throughout the room, knocking desks over and breaking all the windows out of sheer force.
Then there was a deafening 'Pop', followed immediately by another one, and Damian looked up hopefully, only to see that Harry was not standing beside him.
He sighed as he realized what that now meant.
o0o
Draco, by now, had calmed considerably and figured out what had been going on. After the noise had stopped, he looked up, only to see that Harry was not standing where he felt sure he would be. He sighed as he realized what this meant.
Both Damian and Draco got up reluctantly and looked over at the other, both sure that they would see the other with Harry, no doubt snogging him into next century. They blinked at what they saw. Then blinked again. No way. The both thought, coming out from behind the desks.
Standing exactly in the middle of the room, an equal distance from both Draco and Damian, was Harry. His hair had gone completely white, and his eyes kept flashing different colors.
Did this mean?
"Daae..Does this mean what I think it means...?" Draco asked quietly and Damian looked at him hopelessly.
"Yes, Malfoy. It means we are both, without a doubt, his mates." Damian said, then added hopefully, "unless this means there's still some confusion as to which one of us it is!"
Harry blinked, his eyes still flashing colors, before looking to Damian, then to Draco, back to Damian again, and then to his hands, where his eyes rested. "I-" Harry said and both Damian and Draco took a step closer, expecting some great revelation or something of the like. "I want a puppy." He said.
Draco and Damian both promptly fell to the ground.
Soooo, finally, an update! Let me explain my lateness. First off, my Grandmother died in February of 2005, and we just now sold her house, so I was kind of in the dumps because, in selling her house, there was kind of a closer, and it just made me sad. Also, my mom got married and so I've been spending time with her and my step-father. Also, my bro is being a complete arse, so ya. I do apologize. Also, I think there will only be one or two more chapters after this, plus some nifty little closing thingy. And I'll pitch some ideas about a new story, so you can vote on it. I promise to work on one story at a time and get at least one chapter out every week, so long as I get like 4 or 5 reviews per chapter. I'll probably still keep writing it even if I don't, but it's nice to know there are people admiring my work! Also, I can't promise anything, but I'm going to TRY to get another chapter out tonight. If I don't, please don't hang me for it!
