Chapter 15: Bonding
The next day, Harry was feeling more refreshed. He went down to breakfast and saw that Draco wasn't there yet. It was still early so Harry sat next to Lucas who was already up.
"Hey," Harry smiled as he sat down.
The older boy studied him and gave him a smile. "I'm guessing things went well."
"Yep," Harry's eyes shimmered. "Well, as good as things can with Draco anyway. He agreed to let me pay for him and to try being my boyfriend, so we'll see how things go."
"That's great Harry," Lucas smiled while slinging an arm around him briefly.
"Thanks," Harry answered, giving him a one-armed hug. "So, how about you and Lina?"
Shrugging, Lucas gave him a small smile. "Well, she seems very sweet, like you said. And she's really shy, but I don't know yet."
"At least there's always a chance," Harry said, grinning. "So, are there any parties going on tonight?"
Lucas lifted an eyebrow. "I'm not sure. I'll let you know if I hear about any."
"Great," Harry nodded.
Being a Saturday, it wasn't very crowded in the dining hall until late in the morning. Harry wanted to wait up for Draco, but he figured he could see him at lunch so he went to the library to finish up some homework. By the time he finished his essay on Quidditch strategies of the 1900's, he realized lunch had just began. The weekend was much more lenient since breakfast stayed open till eleven and lunch began at noon to three. So Harry immediately got up and went to the dining hall.
Instantly, he saw Lucas who spotted him and gestured for him to come over. Glancing around the room, he noticed that Draco wasn't there anyway.
"What's up?" Harry smiled as he sat down.
"I heard about a party going on in the Bronze Common Room. It wasn't decided until late this morning, but apparently a couple of the seniors left for job opportunities and gave away their drinks."
"Cool," Harry smiled. "So, will you be going tonight?"
"Most likely," he said, glancing at him.
"Good," Harry smiled, patting his arm.
Just then, Harry spotted Draco entering the hall. "Would you excuse me?"
Lucas nodded and Harry got up and headed in the same direction as the blond. The moment Draco sat down Harry sat down next to him. Draco glanced up at him a bit surprised.
"Hey," Harry smiled.
"Can I help you?" Draco drawled.
"Draco," Harry said firmly, giving him a look. "Remember our deal about giving me a fair chance here. So can you quit the attitude?"
"Fine, what do you want Potter?" Draco asked, taking a gulp of his drink.
"Can you stop calling me that?" Harry asked exasperated. "Call me by my first name like I do for you."
Draco sighed in annoyance. "What Harry?"
"I just wanted to spend some time with you, sheesh," Harry grumbled. "Is it illegal to sit by you now?"
Draco rolled his eyes a bit and stared down at his plate. By the way he picked at his food Harry could tell something was bothering him.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Harry asked gently.
"Nothing, my mother just disowned me is all," Draco muttered.
"You mean she wrote another letter?"
"No," Draco gave him a look.
Harry nodded slowly. "Oh. I'm really sorry about that, Draco. Hey, I know something that might cheer you up. There's a party tonight at the Bronze Common Room."
"It's just another party, Potter they're all the same," Draco snorted.
"Harry. And at least try to have some fun. Look, I know you're upset so I'll leave you alone right now. But at least come to the party for a little while, alright?" Harry asked.
"Fine," Draco grumbled, sticking another bite in his mouth.
Harry stared at him silently and then nodded and got up. He went back to join Lucas and the others. Lucas gave him a smile and Harry smiled back. Although Draco was still moody, Harry hoped he could get the other boy to open up more. It was understandable why he was upset though. And Harry didn't know how to comfort him or make him feel better. Hopefully, Draco would attend the party.
Later that night, Harry wore his favorite outfit (his velvet-black pants and silky forest-green blouse), hoping to talk to Draco. Lucas told him he was only going to stay for a little while since he was tired. Harry went to the party with Tavis, searching around for Draco.
"Oy Nicholas!" Tavis grinned. "Hey Harry, you wanna come play Entranced or Cursed?"
"No thanks, not tonight," Harry smiled. "You guys have fun."
"Aw, Harry, you never play anymore," Nicholas gave him a pout.
Harry raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I will play again, promise. Just not tonight."
"Alright," Nicholas sighed heavily. "See ya later."
Harry waved to them as they departed and he went in search of Draco, hoping that he hadn't changed his mind. He walked toward the sitting area and sighed with relief when he spotted Draco sitting on the couch. Harry approached him quickly and was surprised when he saw that Draco wasn't drinking alcohol—just a regular butterbeer.
"Hey," Harry said, plopping down beside him.
Draco glanced at him briefly. "Hate to break it to you, but this party is like all the others," the blond quipped sarcastically.
Harry inwardly sighed, wondering how he was going to make Draco feel better. He thought about it for a couple of minutes and then an idea struck him. Scooting closer, Harry tapped his arm.
"Hey, you know since we're going to be dating for a little while anyway, I think we should tell each other some secrets," Harry said, cocking his head a bit.
Draco raised an eyebrow. "Oh really? And what makes you think I'm going to spill any secrets to you Potter?"
Harry frowned. "Draco, it's Harry, for the umpteenth time. And it's a good chance to get to know one another. Okay, I'll go first," he added quickly.
Draco turned his attention on him and Harry was thankful that he got the blond's interest. Now he just had to think of something that would distract Draco from his negative thoughts.
"Okay," Harry said, turning to him. "You remember how I was supposedly dating Ginny and all of that?"
"Yeah, so?" Draco drawled, keeping his eyes on him.
"Well, I found out recently for sure that she just had an obsession over me this whole time. She claimed that she was 'in love' with me but really all she wanted was to strip me of my virginity," Harry said. "Oh, by the way, I hope you don't mind but a little while ago I asked Lucas to pose as my boyfriend just to prove to her that I'm gay."
"You mean with the 'drop-dead gorgeous' guy?" Draco drawled, staring at him intensely.
Harry's stomach momentarily fluttered, not from the tone of Draco's voice but from the look—almost as if he was a bit jealous. Harry felt his cheeks heat up but he shook his head quickly.
"It's not like that, Draco. Lucas is straight."
"That's a shock," the blond muttered.
"So anyway, that was the proof I got, but I never really told anyone what she did to me before. I mean, Ron knew she came on strongly but I didn't tell him what she did or tried to do really," Harry said, as Draco raised an eyebrow curiously. "She came with me into the Chamber of Secrets when I was getting some old Basilisk skin to brew a potion and the next thing I know she's on top of me—"
"Potter, this better not be something nasty," Draco interrupted.
"And she forced her tongue down my throat—"
"Potter!" Draco exclaimed, giving him a disgusted look. "I do not need to hear this!"
"Wait, that's not the best part," Harry said quickly, scooting closer. "Then she forced my hand onto her breast—"
"UGH! God!" Draco exclaimed, covering his ears. "Potter, that imagery is going to traumatize me!"
Harry was laughing so hard he could barely breathe. Draco's reaction was incredibly amusing and the blond gave him a slight glare for revealing that information. Finally, Harry calmed down and glanced at Draco, still smiling.
"Okay, your turn."
"I'm feeling a bit nauseous, Potter," Draco said, setting his drink down.
"It's Harry," he emphasized. "Get it straight or I'll traumatize you again."
Draco gave him an annoyed look. "Potter, if you ever tell me something like that again I'll throw-up on you."
Harry let out a laugh. "Alright, I get it. So anyway, you understand why I didn't stick with her."
"I think that any boy would turn gay after experiencing that," Draco retorted.
Harry burst into laughter again and Draco glanced at him, smirking slightly.
"Okay, now it's your turn," Harry urged.
"No," Draco said firmly.
"Aw, come on," Harry said, leaning the side of his head against the back of the couch. "Okay, I'll reveal one more thing to you, but you better not tease me."
Draco turned to him and gave a slight shrug. "I can't guarantee anything."
Harry rolled his eyes and inhaled deeply. "Alright…now, I haven't told anybody this, mind you! The first time I ever had an erection was at this school."
Both of the blond's eyebrows rose up and Harry stared at him. Suddenly, Draco burst into laughter and leaned over unable to control himself.
"Hey!" Harry hit him gently in the arm. "That's not that funny! Oh come on, when was your first erection?"
Draco sat back up, still grinning in amusement. "When I was like fourteen."
"You're joking?" Harry asked, open-mouthed. "Fourteen? Wait, so did you lose your virginity kind of young?"
"I'm not discussing that with you," Draco said, taking a gulp of his drink as he leaned back against the armrest.
Harry gave him an annoyed glare. "Draco, do I have to remind you of what we did? I think talking about your past experiences isn't that big of a deal. Besides, weren't you the one who admitted to me a while ago that tons of girls at Hogwarts couldn't keep their hands off you, or something?"
Draco shrugged. Harry crossed his arms and leaned forward. "Draco? Come on, tell me. How many girls have you slept with?"
Draco just stared at him, his eyes glittering with amusement as Harry narrowed his eyes.
"Why is it important? Are you going to get jealous?" Draco drawled with a smirk.
"No…I won't get jealous," Harry shrugged. "I mean, the past is the past. As long as you're not sleeping with someone while we're dating. Or kissing them. Or flirting," Harry added.
Draco raised an eyebrow. "Is there anything else?"
Harry shrugged and gave him a small smile. "Loyalty is big on my list. Will you at least tell me how old you were the first time you had sex? I told you that you were my first, the least you could do is give me something."
Draco's lips curled upward and he stared at him. "Were you saving yourself for me?"
"I wasn't thinking that while growing up, but I did choose you to be my first didn't I?" Harry said, feeling his heart beat wildly as he kept their eyes locked.
Draco stared at him silently and Harry gazed deeply into his silver-gray eyes. He wanted so badly to move forward and press their lips together, but at the same time he didn't want to startle the blond. Draco's silky-blond bangs were ghosting over the sides of his face. Harry bit his lip feeling heat spread throughout his body as their gaze never wavered.
"Hi, I hope I'm not interrupting anything."
Harry turned to see Lucas standing in front of them and he smiled. "No, it's okay. Lucas, have you met Draco?"
"Not personally," Lucas smiled, holding out his hand. "It's a pleasure, Draco."
The blond stared up at him and shook his hand firmly before leaning back. Draco shook his hair out of his face and leaned his elbow on the armrest. Harry knew the blond was trying to show-off his looks to the older handsome boy and Harry couldn't help but think Draco did a very good job of making himself look sexy.
"I just wanted to say goodnight," Lucas smiled.
"Oh, you're leaving?" Harry asked, standing up.
"Yes and Harry?" Lucas said, stepping closer. "It doesn't seem that Lina's really my type."
"I'm sorry," Harry said, giving him a hug. "I promise I'll let you know if I meet anyone who seems nice."
"It's alright, don't worry," Lucas smiled, shaking his head. "It was nice meeting you Draco."
Draco nodded to him silently and Lucas smiled at Harry before taking his leave. Harry sat back down next to the blond, trying to get closer but not wanting it to be obvious.
"I tried to hook him up with Lina, but I guess it didn't work out," Harry shrugged.
Draco glanced at him. "You're playing cupid now, Harry?"
Turning in surprise, Harry gave him a smile. "You called me by my first name."
The blond stared at him and snorted softly. "Don't act surprised. You were making such a big deal out of it."
"I know," Harry smiled. "I just feel bad because Lucas is such a nice guy. And he's been there for me as a good friend and I just wanted to find someone nice for him."
"You should just leave it alone," Draco said, taking another sip of his butterbeer. "He'll find a girl on his own."
Harry glanced at him even as Draco stared out ahead. Under the glow of the dim light floating above them, Harry saw that Draco looked incredibly sexy. He was trying his best not to let his thoughts stray that way since the blond had only just begun to open up. But staring at him, Harry saw that his features seemed kind and peaceful when he wasn't in a bad mood. Draco turned and glanced back at him and Harry blinked, giving him a small smile. The blond then stood up and Harry followed suit.
"Do you want to leave?"
"It's dull anyway. The seniors throw the best parties," Draco said, finishing off his bottle.
"I'll walk with you," Harry said casually.
Draco glanced at him momentarily and then began heading out, with Harry right behind him. As they got out into the hallway away from the noise, Harry noticed that he wasn't sure what to say. Walking up beside the blond, Harry accidentally brushed up against his arm and felt an immediately shiver run up his spine.
"Sorry," Harry murmured quietly.
Draco didn't say anything as they headed toward his common room. Harry's heart was still pounding even as they approached Draco's door. The blond opened it and Harry remained only in the doorway. He had the urge to kiss him, but he held back.
"I'll see you tomorrow, Draco," Harry said, glancing at him briefly. Draco stared at him and Harry quickly broke the eye contact before he gave in to the urge to kiss him.
He then made his way out and back to his own room. When he got there he slumped against the door, trying to calm his racing heart. He was glad that Draco actually opened up to him a little. Perhaps if he kept progressing like that, he could get the blond to finally talk about himself. Harry sighed as he approached his desk. He wasn't very tired at all and had wanted to remain talking with the blond a little longer. However, he didn't expect Draco to open up completely right away. It would take some time and if he was patient enough, hopefully Draco would remain with him more than a few weeks.
A knock came at his door and Harry turned, startled. He wondered if Tavis had returned from the party already. It was only eleven o'clock. Harry opened the door and stared disbelieving.
"Draco?"
The blond glanced up at him and before Harry could blink he suddenly felt his head being jerked forward. Draco crushed their lips together unexpectedly and before Harry could comprehend it was happening the blond broke away. Draco stared at him, seemingly surprised by his own reaction and then quickly turned around. Before he could take a step, however, Harry grabbed his arm and pulled him inside the room. Draco stumbled a bit but the second the door was closed, Harry yanked him forward and crushed their lips together once again, not intending for him to leave.
Draco reacted instantly and shoved him up against the door, kissing him back fiercely. Harry groaned and wrapped his arms securely around the blond's neck as their tongues clashed intensely. Draco's hands tightly wrapped around him, pushing their bodies flushed together. Harry reached down and grabbed the hem of Draco's shirt, yanking it up quickly. Draco pulled away and lifted his shirt over his head as Harry did the same. Then Harry threw his arms back around the blond and fervently pressed their lips together as he slipped his tongue inside Draco's mouth. Their bare chests came into contact and the heat began spreading throughout Harry's body, causing him to become more aroused by the second.
"Mmm…Draco," Harry said in between kisses. "Bed…"
The two didn't relinquish their hold on one another as they both stumbled to get to the bed. Draco turned and let him fall onto it before getting on top of him. Harry grabbed the blond's pants and began hurrying to get them undone. He pulled the zipper down and tried to yank them off.
"Potter," Draco breathed heavily, breaking their kiss. "Just use your wand."
Harry panted breathlessly. "Oh, right."
Draco rolled his eyes a bit and took out his own wand from his pocket. His clothes instantly vanished and Harry did the same with his wand, before letting it drop onto the bed. Immediately, Harry wrapped a leg around Draco's waist and the blond lay completely on top of him. Their naked bodies touched and Harry gasped breathlessly before their lips came back into contact. Harry's arms wound around the blond's back and he tried to adjust his position so that Draco could enter him with ease.
"Don't forget the lubrication," Harry breathed, once they broke away for air.
"I'm not an imbecile," Draco breathed out, reaching for his wand.
Harry's breathing was shallow and his spine prickled with the familiar tingling sensation as Draco placed the tip of his wand at Harry's entrance. Murmuring something, Harry felt the cool gel inside of his passage once again and the blond dropped his wand. It rolled off the bed and fell onto the floor but neither one of them noticed.
"Here," Harry breathed heavily, trying to spread his legs as he wound them around Draco's waist.
"Raise this one higher, Potter," Draco said, breathing just as heavily as he gestured to his right leg.
Harry was too aroused to correct him and raised his right leg up higher to wrap around the middle of Draco's back as his left leg remained wound around the blond's waist. Draco shifted a bit between his legs and then began to lie down upon him. Harry gasped loudly as his neck tilted back. As Draco began lowering himself onto him, he began entering him swiftly and Harry's hips arched off the bed as he did so. He leaned his neck back and closed his eyes, groaning softly. The blond groaned deeply and suddenly thrust his hips forward.
Harry's leg muscles clenched as he kept them around the blond and he groaned as Draco came out a bit and thrust back in. Their pace was quicker than the first time and Harry was finding it even more intense. His breathing was labored and his fingers dug into Draco's back as they trailed downward. Draco groaned and rolled his hips forward, causing Harry to grunt with pleasure at each thrust. Harry's fingers reached Draco's hip and he could feel the blond's back muscles moving with each thrust.
Draco's mouth was by his ear sending pants and groans into it and Harry kept his eyes shut as his body quivered as the waves of pleasure washed over him. The bed was rocking a bit from the force of their movements and Harry even began moving his hips with each thrust. Harry's groans became louder as Draco continued thrusting in deeply in sync with him moving his hips. The blond only shifted once a little while later, allowing for a slightly different angle that actually caused his vision to go a little blurry. Harry gasped and grunted as he found his release some time later. The blond followed shortly afterward and Harry moved his hips slowly until Draco's orgasm stopped entirely.
Harry's whole body was covered in perspiration and he was trying to calm his breathing and erratic heartbeat. Draco pulled out seconds later and dropped onto the bed, letting out a heavy breath. Harry, although still dazed, managed to shakily get up. He reached for his wand, which had gotten caught by the edge of the bed near the pillow, and waved it around them to clean them up.
Harry also waved the spell over Draco, who groaned tiredly as it cleaned him. Then he began sliding under the covers and yanked them from under Draco's lax body to cover the both of them. Smiling sleepily, Harry yawned as he scooted closer to the blond, feeling the other boy's body heat radiating onto him. Although he didn't wrap his arms around Draco, it felt good enough just being that close.
XXXXX
When the rays of sunlight cascaded down upon him, waking him from his sleep, Harry noticed that he felt extremely relaxed and content. As his bleary mind caught up with him, he remembered instantly what had occurred during the night and he smiled, rubbing at his eyes. He turned his head to see Draco's back to him. The blond was still sleeping and his back was uncovered. The sunlight shone down upon part of his fair skin and Harry noticed just how beautiful and flawless his skin appeared.
He rolled over and grabbed his wand, putting it to his mouth to get rid of his morning breath. Then he found out the time was almost nine in the morning. Although it was still a bit early, Harry didn't want to spend it sleeping any longer. Harry scooted closer to Draco's body and gently placed his fingers along his back. The blond didn't move and Harry trailed his fingertips along the warmth of his back all the way to his shoulder. Then Harry scooted closer until he could lean his head over Draco's and touched the blond's shoulder firmly.
He decided he'd just rest closely to the blond until he woke up. Staring down at him while he was asleep, Harry marveled at how attractive he was. His long bangs had spilled across his forehead and he was breathing slowly. Bending down, Harry pressed his lips to the back of Draco's shoulder. His skin was warm and soft. Harry closed his eyes and pressed his cheek against the blond's shoulder, amazed at how strongly he was feeling for Draco. It was amazing how they had hated each other growing up and how they even disliked each other a little while ago. Then everything changed—Harry wasn't sure how quickly or slowly but it was thanks to the school that he was able to get to know him better.
Draco breathed in deeply and began to turn. Harry opened his eyes and stared down at him, watching as the blond gently moved a hand up over his face to push his bangs back. Then he turned his body over and brushed against Harry's chest. His eyebrows furrowed and slowly his eyes opened.
"Morning," Harry said, bending down toward the other boy's lips.
"Potter," Draco stopped him, turning his head away. "I'm not kissing you when you have morning breath."
Harry rolled his eyes though the blond wasn't looking. "I'm not an idiot, Draco. I freshened my breath."
"I'm not kissing you when I have morning breath then," Draco grumbled, turning back over and closing his eyes.
Harry reached behind him for his wand and bent over the blond. He tapped Draco's chin with it and the blond's eyebrows furrowed angrily.
"Potter—"
"Open up," Harry said.
The blond's eyes groggily opened and as he turned, Harry managed to slip the tip of his wand into his mouth, freshening his breath. Harry then bent down and pressed their lips together.
"There," Harry smiled. "You're really not a morning person, are you?"
Draco snorted softly and rolled over. "No normal person is, Potter."
"Harry," he sighed. "Harry, Harry, Harry. How many times do I have to remind you?"
"I'm used to calling you Potter," Draco said as he kept his eyes closed.
"It sounds too impersonal," Harry complained, giving a snort. "Now come on. I promise not to wake you up this early again if you call me that."
Draco opened his eyes and stared up at him in annoyance. "You better not wake me up this early period."
Harry rolled his eyes. "Okay, well since you're up, you want to go down for some breakfast?"
Draco snorted and began to get up so Harry gave him some space. He slid off the bed and began getting dressed, watching as the blond got up as well. Draco lazily waved his wand over his nude body and clothes appeared. Harry just smiled and shook his head. He was fine with getting dressed normally; he didn't want to become too dependent on magic. As Harry slipped on the rest of his clothing, Draco stretched his arms and his back as he got up. Harry went over to his desk to put some of his magical gel in his hair then used a magical comb (which was charmed to comb hair really well as it made it shiny).
"Here," Harry said, tossing the blond the comb.
Draco caught it and wordlessly began to comb back his bangs. Harry watched as the blond strands went back away from his face then slid back down around the sides of his face. Harry inwardly smiled and adjusted his shirt.
"You ready?"
Draco just shrugged and tossed him the comb. Harry placed it back on the desk and the two headed for the door.
"Hey, I was thinking," Harry said as they opened the door and stepped out. "Maybe later today we should…"
Harry trailed off, stopping in his tracks just behind Draco as his eyes caught sight of Tavis. The boy was still in his pajamas and had been apparently heading towards Harry's room. Tavis was staring at them with raised eyebrows and suddenly his lips curled into a wide grin.
"What have you two been up to?" he teased, giving them a sly grin.
"Er, playing cards," Harry said, glancing at Draco who returned the look.
"Uh huh, must've been some card game," Tavis winked.
"If you even think about spreading this around you're going to find my fist in your mouth," Draco warned as his eyes narrowed.
"Hey now, don't get hostile," Tavis grinned, holding up his hands. "I won't say a word."
Harry saw the mischievous glint in Tavis' eye almost instantly and he opened his mouth, but Tavis suddenly dashed out of the common room into the hallway.
"HARRY AND DRACO ARE AN ITEM!" He screamed.
"Goddamnit! YOU ARE A DEAD MAN TAVIS!" Draco shouted, rushing after him.
"What? Harry and Draco?" a sleepy voice repeated.
Harry turned and groaned when he saw Ambreen walking down the steps from her room with a glass. Her hair was a bit disheveled and she glanced over at him.
"You are Draco are together?"
Harry sighed heavily. "Well, now that the whole school's going to know soon enough I suppose there's no reason to hide it."
Ambreen grinned and approached him. "That's so great, Harry. You and Draco make a hot couple."
He felt his cheeks heat up as he walked toward her. "Er, thanks."
"So that article was true then?" Ambreen asked.
Harry shrugged as he stopped in front of her. "Not all of it, really. Rita Skeeter just likes to exaggerate."
"Yeah, so I'm surprised that it was based on truth," she grinned, tilting her head. "Well, that's shocking. I mean, I know you told me you were gay but I didn't actually imagine you with Draco. I heard that you and Blake had been together and then someone said you were with Lucas."
"What? Lucas?" Harry laughed and shook his head. "No, he and I are just friends. Besides, he's straight."
"Is he?" Ambreen perked up. "He is extremely hot, but…well, I have a boyfriend for right now."
"Really, who?"
"Tavis again. We're giving it another shot," she said, letting a small smile show. "He spent the night in my room. I remember him saying something about going to ask you to borrow a comb, since mine is charmed to make hair glittery and next thing I know I hear him screaming about you two."
Harry smiled in return. "Er, yeah. I think Draco's going to kill him, but that's good you two are giving it another try. It might work out the second time."
"We'll see," she winked. "If it doesn't, I've got my eyes on Lucas. Especially if Draco manages to kill him," she laughed. "I'll see you later, Harry."
"See you," Harry smiled, watching as the other girl disappeared upstairs probably to get changed.
Sighing in contentment, Harry sat down in a chair and summoned a cup of tea. He really didn't mind if the whole school knew about them. He was just happy things seemed to finally be working out between them.
