Snake House Chapter 4

Harry followed Draco into the common room, looking at the rather bleak décor. Draco followed his gaze and laughed. "It's better when the fire is lit." He said, pulling off his robes and sitting on a chair. Harry sat across from him.

"Explain to me, why is it so shocking that I can speak snake?" He asked, and Draco shook his head "It's a ability that is only in the Slitherin line, and the only other person who has it today is the Dark Lord." "Voldemort can speak to snakes?" Harry asked, and Draco hissed "Don't say his name!"

"Why shouldn't I call him Voldemort?" Harry asked, and Draco slapped his hand over Harry's mouth. "Because… just because!" Draco said, and Harry shrugged. "Whatever." Harry smiled. Draco scowled. "So, tell me, what's so special about being able to talk to snakes?" Harry asked.

"It's not exactly common." Draco said, causing Harry to laugh. "Neither am I." He stated, and Draco snorted. "And what is so odd about you?" He asked. Harry took his shirt off, exposing his perfect six-pack. "How many people here have abs like these?" He asked, and Draco stared at Harry's stomach.

"I didn't think anyone else did, besides Daemon, of course." Harry said, and stretched, causing the muscles to ripple. Draco looked dreamily at the muscles before shaking himself.

"Umm…yeah." Draco said, for lack of anything better to say. Harry laughed. "Anyway, when's dinner over?" Harry asked, but was cut off as the common room door opened. The girls that first entered stopped dead, and people behind started making a fuss.

"Holy damn." One of the girls said, and Harry looked at her oddly. Some of the guys looked at Harry in envy, and still others looked at him with lust. "Why is everyone staring?" Harry asked, adjusting his wrist daggers. Shrugging, he pulled his shirt back on and walked out of the common room.

"What was up with them?" He asked, cocking his head. "Well, you are not exactly a Crabbe, and people are noticing." Draco said vaguely, and Harry stopped as Daemon and Cleo came up to him.

"So, what were you boys doing?" Daemon asked, and Cleo smirked. "Just discussing my amazing abs." Harry said, and sighed. "And then people came in and made a big deal about me being shirtless." He said, causing Cleo to stare incredulously at her abnormally-thick-today friend.

"You have to be joking. You're bloody hot." Cleo said, and Harry laughed. "Nice try Cleo, but I won't fall for it." Harry said, turning to the wall of the common room and speaking the password, allowing them back in. Harry ignored the people trying to gain his attention, except for Draco, who was standing by a door.

"This is our room." Draco said to Harry, leading the boy in and locking the door. He kissed Harry softly on the lips once before pulling off his shirt, revealing a toned chest, and Harry felt himself staring. Draco noticed, and teasing Harry, stretched. Harry, who wasn't to be outdone, pulled off his own shirt and smirked at the effect it had on Draco.

Draco's ploy to get Harry out of his shirt worked. He looked as Harry, who was really sexy, got even sexier as he gave a smirk. Harry laughed and turned to his trunk, bending over to get something. Draco took a chance, and went behind Harry, lightly grabbing his hips. "Isn't this suggestive?" He purred, causing Harry to gulp.

"Perhaps a bit." Harry agreed, his mind whirling. "Are you teasing me?" Draco whispered, breath hot against Harry's neck, causing an involuntary shiver to run through him.

"N-no." Harry said, causing Draco to nip Harry's ear. "Good." He breathed, and Harry's breath caught.

Draco, knowing full well the effect he was having on Harry, took another risk and turned Harry to him, catching his lips in a seemingly innocent kiss. Harry responded automatically.

Draco inwardly cheered, before all rational thought was taken away. Neither noticed as a wave of magic, smelling of roses and the sea, swept through the castle, causing two adults to rush to the dungeons. Before they found the exact room it came from, it stopped.

One man, Albus Dumbledore, left the dungeons, muttering incoherently about something or another. Severus Snape, however, moved toward the room his godson was in, going to ask which way the magic came from.

Reaching the door, he opened it to see his godson pinning someone to the floor, snogging the life out of him or her. He cleared his throat. No response. He walked forward and tapped his godson.

Draco scowled against Harry's lips at the interruption, before breaking the kiss and looking at his godfather.

"Yes?" Draco asked, carding his hand through the soft hair below him. Severus could see black hair. Long black hair. He figured it was a girl. Draco shifted so that he had one knee of either side of the girl's waist, supporting himself as the pair caught their breath.

"You wouldn't have felt a wave of magic that smelled like the ocean and roses, would you?" Severus asked, and Draco shook his head. The girl beneath him panted, shaking her head.

"Well, then you were the cause." Severus said, wandering from the room, apparently lost in thought.

"Now, where were we?" Draco asked Harry, who smiled. "Now I remember." Draco said, lips descending to Harry's. Harry smiled against Draco's lips.

Draco pulled back a few inches. "Why are you smiling?" he asked, and Harry's smile widened. "Professor Snape said we were the cause of the magic surge." He said, and Draco smiled as well.

"Draco? What does it mean?" He asked, brushing hair out of his face with his left hand. A platinum snake bangle was around it, loose enough to move to about mid-arm, but small enough to stay on.

"Where did you get that?" Draco asked, and Harry looked at it. "I have no idea." He replied, grabbing Draco's right arm. "You have one too." He commented, and Draco stared at them.

"What do they mean?" Harry asked again, and Draco stared at the bracelets. "I have no idea." he whispered, standing and helping Harry from the floor.

"But we are gong to Severus to find out." Draco added, pulling Harry from the room, bracelets clanking gently.

Severus wasn't expecting anyone, so he was naturally curious to know who it was. He pulled open the door, to see Draco and the girl he was snogging. He ushered them inside, before making a startling discovery. The girl that was with Draco wasn't a girl at all.

"Draco?" Severus asked, and Draco held out his arm, showing the bracelet. He also grabbed Harry's arm, exposing the matching one. Severus stared in shock at the two.

"Bloody Hell." He announced, slumping into a dead faint.
