Episode 3

Ron was the first one to open the door. He was relieved that he didn't have to be in a room with those Slytherins anymore. Hermione and Draco followed right behind, not looking back once to see what the Slytherins were doing. They just had to get the hell away from them. They had been in there long enough, suffering enough.

Harry was stunned at what he had just done. He didn't know where those moves came from. All he really needed was to strip in front of him, not making a show for him. But that is exactly what he did. Hell, he even grinded him for a moment there. He couldn't believe himself; he hated this game from the start but now it was pure despise.

"Looked like you had fun, Harry" Blaise said to Harry.

"Oh, shut up Blaise!" Harry yelled at Blaise "You know damn well I'm not comfortable with males!"

"He didn't mean to Harry" Pansy said trying to calm Harry down.

"He should have known better!" Harry was still fuming with anger "Being close to males is hard enough and this made it, so I actually sat down on one. I tried to finish the whole strip thing but had to continue because of this spell. I sat down again, and I hit Draco's little friend."

"I'm really sorry Harry, I was just so focused on the game I forgot about everything" Blaise said, regretting everything he did.

"I know Draco wouldn't do what Cedric did, but I can't get past it!" Harry said on the verge of tears from his memories. "I have never been this uncomfortable in any situation, but there I was afraid of what a boy would do. A boy who couldn't even stand up from his chair because of a spell. I'm terrified of my own thoughts and dreams! And when I'm scared it says something."

"I'm so sorry Harry." Blaise regretting it even more "I'm truly sorry. I just wanted you to get closer to your crush without it looking too suspicious."

"Harry, he didn't mean for it to hurt you like it did." Pansy said reassuring Harry of her company.

"I'm sorry for lashing out like this, but you know the curse and all." Harry said apologetically.

"We know, that's why we didn't leave you alone like other Slytherins would have done."

"Thank you for understanding, and not leave me." Harry looked at his friends a little happier.

"Come on let's get back to our rooms before curfew." Blaise said looking at the time.

They walked to their rooms, slowly getting over what had just happened to them. They chatted along and didn't bring up what had just happened. Blaise and Pansy didn't want to have Harry's curse go to the surface again. They know how bad that can get if they don't manage to calm him down. They used some of their summer to help and understand Harry, so it wouldn't be too bad to start at school this year. Harry knew Pansy and Blaise only wanted to play the game. But his curse takes over whenever he is defenseless, and that would be whenever he was unsure of himself. It didn't happen often and that's why every time it happens Harry gets almost uncontrollable for his friends.

They got to their common room just in time of curfew. Their moods were back to normal and took the chance to leave Harry alone. They all went to bed since they had classes in the morning. Harry walked to his bedroom, tired from what had happened on his first day of school. He undressed himself and went to bed, hoping he would get a dreamless sleep for once in his life. He was not lucky enough to have his wish fulfilled.

Harry looked down at his hands, they were full of blood. He had never seen so much blood before, and that's when he looked up and saw Voldemort laughing in his face. Harry was scared and started to feel week. He looked down at himself, he was beading from his stomach. A wand was stabbed into him and not taken out. Because Harry could see Cedric's wand stuck in him. That's when Cedric appeared from behind Voldemort. Harry wasn't just scared anymore, he was terrified. Two of his worst fears were together, laughing at him. Harry fell to the ground, tears streaming down his face.

"Look at you, how pathetic the chosen one looks" Cedric laughed evilly at Harry.

"It's time Cedric, we'll take over the world" Voldemort said looking at Harry in triumph.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!" Harry yelled out terrified.

Harry woke up from his nightmare full of sweat. Blaise was shaking Harry to wake him from his nightmare. When Blaise saw Harry was awake, he pulled him into a hug. Blaise wasn't known for hugging but after the war and Harry's curse, he decided to lower his bad boy attitude whenever he was around hid friends. But only his friends. Harry hugged back with tears still streaming down his face. They sat there for a few minutes before Harry let go of Blaise.

"What happened Harry?" Blaise looked at Harry, worried.

"Voldemort and Cedric were killing me together"

"I'm so sorry you have to go through this, if only those dreamless potions worked on your curse" Blaise said.

"What's the time?" Harry asked, wanting to change the topic.

"It's five in the morning, you want to go and have breakfast before everyone wakes up?"

"Yeah that sounds good." Harry said forcing a little smile on his face.

They both stood up, casing a spell that clothed them is no time. They knocked on Pansy's door asking if she was awake. She was and thought it would be good to come with them. They walked down to the Great Hall so they could eat breakfast without anyone there. But to their luck, they weren't alone. There were more people than they had ever expected. But at least there wasn't any other Slytherins, Harry didn't want them to see he had been crying from something as stupid as a nightmare. They walked down to the end of their table, sitting down and eating some breakfast. But they only got to sit there for a minute of two before the spell of the game took a hold of them and moved them to the Room of Requirement. They didn't like what was to come. While Harry just didn't want to face the Gryffindors, Pansy and Blaise was worried about Harry's emotions. His emotions were right under the surface because of last night. When they arrived at the Room of Requirement, the Gryffindor's were standing outside the door waiting for them. They were all awake and forced down there as soon as they had clothes on.

"Hello Potter, Zabini and Parkinson" came from a very pissed Ron.

"Don't look at us, we have nothing to do with this. We were just eating breakfast when the charm forced us here." Pansy said looking at the Gryffindors.

"I suppose we have to play the game today?" Hermione said looking really tired.

"I suppose so, and it will probably last a few hours since we don't have classes today." Harry shrugged.

"Let's just get this over with" Ron rolled his eyes at the Slytherins.

Harry walked to the door, passing it three times and thinking of the room they had the last time. Harry opened the doors, and everyone walked in. He closed the door while the others sat down at their reserved places. Harry sat down next to Ron and Draco.

"Is it my turn to ask a question?" Hermione asked the group as she was, they were all ready to play.

"Yeah it is, and for your information Ron hasn't been asked" Draco said to Hermione.

"Why did you rat me out like that Draco!" Ron asked Draco, whom he thought was his friend.

"After we got back from the last game, all you talked about was how happy you were that you didn't have to do anything. You continued to talk about it forgetting that I wasn't that lucky."

"Well then, Ron, truth or dare" Hermione asked Ron, with a grin on her face.

"Truth"

"And here I thought you would take the dare" Harry said, jokingly at Ron.

"Ron, how come you didn't react when Draco said he was gay?" Hermione asked Ron.

"Wait, he didn't know?" Harry asked.

"I didn't tell him directly." Draco said while hiding his face in his hands.

"Well, I wasn't surprised to the fact that Draco was gay, I had my suspicions. And I don't really see why it's so hard to tell me. So instead of saying anything I just wanted him to tell me." Ron said as the truth was forced out of him.

"I guess it's my turn again then." Pansy said with way to much excitement.

"How can you be so happy to play this game Pansy?" Harry asked his friend with a worried face.

"It's fun to see all of the secrets being forced out in the open." Pansy said to Harry with a grin.

"Don't you dare Pansy; I can see what you are thinking" Harry said to Pansy with a stern face.

"I have no idea what you are talking about, but Harry truth or dare?"

"I hate you so much sometimes!" Harry said looking at his friend. "I guess I'll take truth, since I took dare last time."

"Okay then Harry, since we know the sexuality of Draco, I thought he would like to know yours too. Harry what is your sexuality?" Pansy said, with the biggest grin across her face.

"I'm bisexual, but I have a preference for boys." Harry shrugged, then looked at Pansy with disapproval.

"Sorry, not sorry" Pansy said sticking out her tongue

"It's my turn to ask, Harry, truth or dare." Ron asked.

"I chose truth, since I don't trust you enough to take a dare." Harry said.

"I thought you would say that, Harry, what is it like to be Severus's pet"

"First of all, I'm no one's pet. That is just gross. I just like his classes because of how he takes control over everyone. The only reason I managed to get so many to follow me under the war was because I followed after Severus. But he is only a person I look up to, nothing else." Harry said to Ron with disgust on his face. "Well it's my turn to ask now. Ron, truth or dare?"

"I'll take a dare"

"Hmm, I didn't think you would. But hey, I like that too." Harry said looking at Ron with a smirk. "I dare you to knock on Severus's door and tell him how much you missed his touch this summer"

"I have to do WHAT!" Ron yelled in disbelief at Harry.

"It's either that or suffer an immense pain until the game is over." Hermione said to Ron reassuringly.

"Okay, I'll do it. Who is coming with?"

"Everyone is coming with you so we can all see what happens." Harry said smiling like the little devil he can be.

Everyone stood up and followed Ron, they walked in silence. And everyone could see that Ron was tensing up as they closed in on Severus's office. Everyone other than Ron, stopped at a corner next to the office. They stood there in silence as Ron walked slowly to the door of the teacher, he was afraid of. Ron knocked on the door, hoping Severus wouldn't open the door, but to his luck Severus opened the door and looked down at Ron. Ron was getting so nervous he struggled to remember what he was supposed to do.

"Mr. Weasley, what are you doing here? Severus asked.

Ron leaned closer to Severus.

"I missed your touch this summer." Ron said in the most seductive way he could.

As soon as Ron has said that he ran away. He ran past his friends, right back to the Room of Requirement. His friends looked surprised at the guts he had. While the Slytherins just had to giggle at what they had made the poor Gryffindor do. They walked back to the Room of Requirement, where Ron was sitting already.

"It's my turn then. Blaise truth or dare?" Draco said looking at Blaise.

"I'll take a dare"

"Well then, I dare you to show us what happened between Harry and Voldemort under the war." Draco said to Blaise. Because he was generally curious.

"I can't do that." Blaise said looking worryingly at Harry.

"It's okay, I think I can control it. And I don't want you to go through pain because of me and a stupid game." Harry said to his friend, reassuringly.

"Okay then." Blaise said sighing.
