One Week

Chapter Seven

The few days leading up to the transformations were both exciting and stressful. Ron and Harry both seemed to be getting a feel for what their lives were going to be like by talking to Sirius and Draco. They were happy about some of the perks of becoming a vampire, but they were also a bit grossed out at the prospect of drinking someone's blood.

All in all, though, they were ready. Harry and Tom even had a breakthrough and started to become friendlier towards one another. The two were found having breakfast together on the morning of the transformation.

"I'm sorry that I'm forcing you to make the change this early, but I can't take any risks," Tom said as he spread butter on a bagel.

Harry chuckled at the image presented before him. The "Dark Lord" spreading butter on a bagel and apologizing to him – the stuff of really amazing dreams. "It's alright," Harry replied. "I would have done the same thing if I were in your shoes."

"I just hope that you have patience with Draco. He's not the easiest to deal with at times."

"I have all the patience in the world. It's Ron that you gotta look out for."

The redhead in question was spending time with Draco on the other side of the manor. "I'm really thrilled that you decided to accept the change, Ron. I would be heartbroken if you turned out like my mum," Draco said.

"Yeah, well you and Harry really helped me warm up to the idea, so thank you," Ron replied, wishing Harry was with them.

Draco, seemingly reading Ron's thoughts, said, "Harry and Father seem to be getting along much better, don't you think?"

"I suppose, I just wish he'd spend more time with me. I'm pretty lonely all day without him."

Draco's eyes lit up and he inched closer to his mate. "You know, Ron, when Harry's busy, I'm always here for you."

Ron sighed. "I know. It's just hard to grasp that there's someone else when Harry is busy. It's a lot to get used to."

Draco grimaced. "I'm sorry if I've been coming on too strong this week. It's just that I've been wanting to get closer to you and Harry for quite some time now and it's a little difficult to hold back."

You're not the only one trying to hold back," Ron mumbled to himself. Although Ron's outward thought wasn't meant for him, Draco grinned at his words.

He wasn't sure of Ron's feelings until now and he could rest at ease knowing that Ron was finally growing attracted to him.

When the evening finally arrived, Ron and Harry were in their room mentally preparing themselves for the change. They were certain that they wanted this, however, they were still frightened at the prospect of Draco sinking his fangs into their necks.

"Everything is going to be different now isn't it?" Ron asked.

Harry smiled at the redhead. "Yes, but I think that it's going to be good."

Draco poked his head in, looking handsome as ever. "You guys ready?" he asked.

Harry grabbed Ron's hand and gave it a tight squeeze. "I think so."

"I'll be waiting in my room."

Ron looked at the love of his life. "Together?" he said, motioning towards the door.

"For now and the rest of eternity."

The two Gryffindors walked towards their fate, feeling closer than ever. No matter what happened, they would always have each other to hold onto – and nothing could ever change that.

The End.
