Whee! I'm back! Sooner than I expected too…Well I figure I'd give my few fans a treat for once. Thanks Lily for reviewing; you make me feel all specials! Why won't anyone else review? Seriously, does it take that long to hit the little button and type 'it's good', or 'it sux'? I even accept anonymous reviews here people! Please oh please review! It makes my self esteem go way up and I type more chapters up sooner! You don't want me to be mean and make it so I only update with a certain number like some authors do, do you? 'Cause I will if I have to!

Ejje: What a long rant, I'd review if I were you people so you can stop these long intros!

Cal: Really!

Ejje: Ok, disclaimer- M.E. OWNS NOTHING BUT XINTIL AND EVAN, PLUS ME AND CAL! NO STEALING PLEASE!

Thank-you Ejje, now on with Chapter seven! Whoo-hoo! Oh, and remember to read the note at the bottom! I got a challenge for all of you…

Chapter Seven

XxxXxx

(Normal P.O.V.)

"What?" Grim said with a gasp.

Xintil smiled at him. "I said I'm in love with you."

The light brown haired man shook his head slightly. "Xintil, I'm a teacher, that's wrong."

"I know, but with love is anything wrong? Plus like I said I'm not human, and I'm much older than I seem. The time warp made me de-age twelve years; I'm actually twenty-eight. Surprise, I'm older than you."

"What do you mean 'time warp', and not human? Come on Xintil; don't make up such lame lies to get me to 'fall in love with you'. I'm not stupid, so quit the act and leave. If you're lucky I'll forget this ever happened and we can get on with our /normal/ lives." Grim said a bit aggravated.

Xintil made a deep sigh. "Fine, but I want you to know I'm doing something that could cause my species in the future to become endangered by telling you all this. I love you, so I guess I owe it to you to prove I'm telling the truth."

The professor sat in a chair and crossed his arms. He wasn't sure what to think of the boy's actions, but he wasn't about to let his guard down. "Go on then, prove yourself and then could you leave? I have papers to grade."

"Ok, I see you still think I'm making this up, but do you remember that day in class at the beginning of the year when I got hit by that revealance charm? Didn't you find that odd?" Xintil asked as he hopped up to sit on the edge of the professor's desk.

Grim blinked. "I thought you said it was the charm that did that?"

Xintil chuckled. "No, just watch carefully." He brought his wand up so the tip was level with the space between his eyes. "Revealio!"

A white spark flew from his wand to his face and his eyes glowed for a few seconds, before they turned from brown to a pure black. Grim's eyes widened in shock.

"Yes professor, this is their true color." Xintil whispered. "When you questioned me that day I had to lie, my race's future is on the line you see. I couldn't tell you then."

With a shaky hand the blue eyes man gently cupped Xintil's cheek as he examined his eyes. The black haired boy smiled at the touch and leaned into it. After a few seconds of just staring, Grim whipped his hand back and swore.

"You are telling the truth!"

"I told you I was." Xintil said. "Now, answer my question."

The professor took a deep breath as he got over the shock. "What question?"

"Do you feel the same?"

Grim stood up and walked around to the other side of the desk clutching his forehead in thought. "Xintil this is much more serious! I'm a teacher for crying out loud! I could be fired, and if you're telling the truth there's the chance of, well…"

"What do you mean 'if'? Aren't my eyes proof enough?" Xintil asked. "Oh, you can't forget that boggart of mine! Remember that? The one of the portal and my parents?"

Grim turned and stared at him. "That was the portal you fell through? Those people were your parents?"

Xintil nodded. "Yes, it's my biggest fear not getting back home. But, now that I've met you I don't care if I get back. I like it here."

"But what about your parents here, they're not your real ones?" Grim asked, becoming slightly confused.

"No, they found a little ten-year old boy on their front steps six years ago and took him in. They take care of me, and because they know what I am they play it off like they're my real parents. I love them greatly for it." Xintil said with a soft smile. "I owe them so much…"

Grim sighed. "Still Xintil, even if I did, and even if you are older, no one else sees it that way! I'll be in a lot of trouble."

Xintil walked up to him and moved his chin down slightly with his hand to look straight into his eyes. "I love you, and if you feel the same that's all that matters. I'm willing to risk my race's future for this, are you willing to risk your job?"

(Harry's P.O.V.)

We made out for like an hour yesterday. It was so amazing, plus he tastes even better than I thought he would! I can still fell his lips against mine…

Anyway, we agreed to meet on weekends only, in the Room of Requirement. We don't anyone to know about us yet, even our closest friends, which means we have to extra careful on our little meeting. I don't mind, makes it seem that much more forbidden and even sexier…

I'm trying to think of a way to hide this from Ron and Hermione. They always seem to figure everything out after all. If they start asking questions I know I might slip up, and I don't know if Draco would forgive me if I did. Everyone still thinks he's a Death Eater after all, even though I know the truth now.

He swapped sides shortly before fourth year, and he's somehow managed to get out of taking the dark mark for now. I'm going to see if I can get the Order to hide him from his father's wrath when he announces it. I know they will, but I think I should probably ask them first. (A/N- before ya'll ask, no, I'm not turning this into a 'Draco-is-to-take-the-dark-mark-and Harry-rescues-him-fic'. I have a unique plot coming up…and it involves that challenge waiting for you at the end…)

I still can't believe I've fallen in love with him yet. Even harder to believe is he loves me back! Ok, maybe not 'love' yet, but I can hope! I will get him to say he loves me before the end of this year, I promise you that!

I'm sorry for cutting this chapter so short, but it was a special treat anyway, plus I've cleared up all that Xintil stuff. Wow, isn't he complicated? Trust me, there's a lot more to come! And remember, he is in a book I'm writing so don't steal my idea!

Ejje: Can we tell them of the challenge now?

Oh, right. Ok, here's the challenge- A person named Alona shows up in later chapters. If you can guess who she is, you get a story written with any Harry Potter couple of your choice, as long as its slash. Sorry, but I'm not too big on straight ones. I'll give you one hint as to who she is: She's the reason Draco doesn't get the dark mark. Trust me, I highly doubt any of you will get it, but I thought I'd try out a little challenge for once! Guess in your reviews, which I hope you'll be doing.

Ejje: Oh, and you only get one guess! Sorry, but that's the way it is.

Cal: Review now! Next chapter is going to be longer, and with a lot more action…
