Chapter Eighteen - Questions? What Questions?

When Seamus was finally finished spreading out every piece of gossip he could to Hermione, he told her that he had to be on his way. She would have acted sad about him leaving, but she really wasn't.

Once he left, she dug right back into the restricted books.

Hermione, being the bookworm that she was, hadn't even noticed the dark figure lurking around her. His presence was nothing to her. Until…

"Isn't that forbidden or something?"

Hermione's eyes shot up from the book she was reading, and tried covering her tracks unnoticeably.

"It's to late Granger. I've seen what you have been up to!"

"So you have been spying on me, I presume."

"Not quite. I just wanted to see if you were free. You know, to finish the potions assignment."

Hermione paused, looking at Blaise.

"Don't worry, Granger. Your secret is safe with me!"

After they finished their potion's assignment, Blaise said goodbye, and gave Hermione a wink letting her know that she could get back to her restricted reading.


Ron was baffled by the way Pansy left the room. He wasn't even under the serum's influence for a minute.

He knew his girlfriend was working hard in the library like she always did at this time, so he decided to call it a night, and head back to the Gryffindor common room.


Harry ran after his beauty, Draco. They laughed uncontrollably at the situation at hand. After their unremarkable Quidditch game, and kissing charade in the hallway, they decided to go on with their plans. Harry used his wand to conjure up a muggle invention called "the inflatable bed." He laid some blankets, and pillows on top of the bed. He then made sure it was under the tree, by the lake. He grabbed the basket of food and set down beside the bed.

Draco started to tease Harry, poking him on his ribs, which were now completely healed. He would try tickling his sides, and nip at his ears. Harry tried turning the tabled on him, but Draco jumped out of his reach and ran playfully.

He then challenged Harry to a game of hide and seek. Pansy taught him the game when they were children. It had always been one of Draco's favourite games, which is probably why he never got to play it often.

After Harry found Draco, Harry insisted that it was his turn to hide. Draco teased playfully, and assured him that he would be the one hiding again.

Harry laughed, and quickly ran after the pale and thin boy, who glistened underneath the moonlight. Harry couldn't help but admire this boy's features.

Oh how he just wanted to hold him and never let him go. He couldn't believe how fast the Slytherin was on his feet. For someone his size, you would think his legs would give out.

Harry picked up his pace, and Draco noticed. He knew he was going to be caught in no time at all.

When Harry was about to grab Draco, and pull him into his arms, Draco twirled from his running pace, and smiled while jumping into the arms of his Gryffindor lion, laughingly.

His unexpected pounce led them to the ground. Draco was on top of Harry straddling his hips.

"Having fun?"

"More then you, I'm sure"

"That's not possible."

"Don't be so sure of yourself, Lion"

"Lion?"

"Yeah, that's the nickname I came up with, for you"

"It's cute!"

"Cute? I'd say it's more sweet, or adoring, maybe even…"

Draco groaned into Harry's lips, being cut off in mid sentence.

"Now, what were you saying?"

"Umm, I have no idea, but that was good…why don't you do it again, and try to refresh my memory?"

"Because, that would be like spoiling a child"

Draco scuffed. "I changed my mind, you can hide…only I won't come and find you!" He jabbed Harry, got up off the Gryffindor and started to walk away.

Draco felt great knowing what Harry's weakness was. One jab to the ribs or his side, and he was in a fit. Pleasure or pain, that was unknown.

What did I do?

"Oh, you know what you did!"

Right, the whole reading the mind thing, I have to trigger a way to stop my thoughts from coming. I stopped them once before, I can surely do it again!

"I can still hear you, you know" Draco yelled, now being further away from Harry.

Harry rushed to get up. He quickly found himself standing in front of the other boy. "I'm sorry."

"I bet you are, Potter"

"Please Draco, don't be like this!"

"What? Now you expect me to change just because I'm your boyfriend? Think again Potter!"

Harry smiled, "Did you just say…boyfriend?"

"I-I-No!"

"Yes you did!"

"No I didn't, I have no idea what you are talking about, Potter!"

"Oh yes you do! Try rephrasing what you said then!"

"I can't remember what I said."

"You are such a liar; everyone knows that a Malfoy never forgets!"

Draco turned his head from Harry.

"Draco, I'm sorry!" Harry lifted his hand to Draco's face, and trailed it down his cheek, and gently pulled Draco's face towards himself, by the chin. "I truly am sorry, Draco. You are not like a spoiled kid, and I would never deny you of any pleasure." Harry went to kiss Draco on the lips but Draco's hand rushed up and stopped him.

"Deny me of pleasure, or deny yourself from it?"

"Drake, you know what I meant. I'm sorry."

Draco smiled, with his Godly smile. "I was just kidding with you anyway." Draco giggled.

Harry's emerald-green eyes sparkled, "I don't think I've ever seen you so happy before"

"That's because I haven't been this happy before. How could a person not be happy when they have the great Harry James Potter as their boyfriend?"

"You said it again!"

"What?"

"Boyfriend, you called me your boyfriend."

"Well aren't you? I mean you are a boy, and you are a friend…"

"Oh, is that how you see us? Friends? With…benefits?"

Draco scuffed, "Of course not, Potter! What do you take me for?"

"Well then give me a straight answer!"

"What does this tell you?" Draco gently pulled Harry by the collar of his shirt. He brought his free arm over Harry's neck and tangled his hand in Harry's hair. His lips hovered over Harrys. They both gasped for air, nudging at submission. Draco finally pressed his lips to Harry's chapped, but wet lips.

They kissed for at least a minute before Draco's tongue ran wildly across Harry's lips, asking for permission to be let in. Once accepted, both tongues crashed together, in a heated battle of submission.

Lips finally parted, "So?"

"I think that tells me that this snake is defiantly mine."

"Then I suppose this scruffy old Lion is mine."

They smacked lips once more, needing the comfort of one another.

"All this excitement is making me hungry"

"Well, you can lick, suck, chew, and eat me."

"Potter, I meant I was hungry for food, not dessert."

"That sounded a little perverted."

"And what you said didn't?"

"Maybe it did, but I was being honest about it."

"Harry"

"Yeah?"

"You scare me sometimes."

"Well you scare me all the time." Harry smirked. "I think that's why I keep coming back, I love the thrill. It's so new, and enduring. I never want to let this go. I never want to let you go."

"I feel the same."

"Good, now let's eat, Drake. I'm famished."

Both boys walked down the small hill to their temporary bed. They took off their shoes and robes. They were now left in their school uniforms. Gray pants, and white-buttoned tops, which were very translucent, but only in the light. They loosened their ties, and sat down beside one another, eating their little feast of food, and conversing calmly, and lovingly.

After, when they finished eating…Draco crawled into Harrys lap and lay softly in his arms. Enjoying the warmth coming form the other boy. They had begun to talk about funny rumours that went on through the school.

Draco stopped and turned half of his body around towards Harry. "Does everyone really think I've slept with all the Slytherins?"

"Not all, just most. Half. And they say you have slept with a few Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff, but never a Gryffindor."

"Well that's just absurd!"

"I know, cause you are with me."

"No, not that part. I mean the part about me sleeping with any of them." Draco blushed. "I'm a virgin, Harry"

"Are you really?"

"Yes. What about you?"

"I am too" Harry chimed.

"You see…I couldn't possibly be anything else but a virgin, because I only wanted to take that step with someone I loved. And I only wanted to go out with someone if I knew it would last."

"So you think this is going to last?"

"I have hope"

"Gods, I love you."

"I know."
