Yes or no
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Nothing… (Sob)
Hello, so here's the 3rd chapter of Purpose. I really hope that you are enjoying it! PLEASE find it in your hearts to review it, even if it's a tiny one. You could just say 'Yay' or 'Nay' it would really help my confidence. So here we go…
No way. No actual way did Draco do that to him yesterday. Harry could still not believe it! And just opposite the potions classroom; Snape could have walked right out on them! Oh wow, if Snape had walked out on them… Yet Harry could not deny that there was a slight thrill, an aspect of excitement to what they did! He was just sitting on the bed glowing, when Ron came barging into the room a couple of minutes later.
"Ha-ha, right. So Harry, there's such a stupid rumour spreading round the whole common room like wild fire. Obviously, it's not true and your gonna laugh so much when you here it mate" Ron chuckled out.
A sense of dread filled Harry. Oh no. Oh no, no, no. "What?" Giving a very forced laugh.
"Well basically, basically they're saying-"he laughed again, "Well, that you and Malfoy fucked in the corridor after potions yesterday! It's so stupid, I mean bloody hell-"
"I have to go." Harry interrupted. He got up quickly and in complete horror. He had to get to Draco.
"Wait Harry… what? It's funny Harry! No one's taking it-"
But Harry had already gone. He burst into the common room, and quickly exited, even though many people tried to gain his attention and he could tell others were staring at him. Shit.
Moving quickly down the spiral staircase, Harry knew he had to talk to Draco. Draco didn't want anyone to know and this wouldn't have been the exact way Harry would have chosen to tell his friends either. But it felt wrong to downright deny that anything had happened, or was happening between them, but maybe that was just Harry view on it. Suddenly he crashed into somebody rushing up the staircase; he had been too absorbed in his thoughts. It was Draco.
Draco's p.o.v
"Harry! I've been looking for you." He gasped, out of breath.
"Me to, are the Slytherins on about the same thing that the Gryffindors are?" Harry questioned.
Something icy fell into Draco's stomach. Oh shit, the Gryffindors knew too. "That we fucked?"
"Yes, so the Slytherins know too? Oh shit…." Harry cursed.
"It's okay, listen. We'll just laugh along with them. And agree that it's the stupidest thing we've ever heard! Simple." Draco finalised.
But Draco saw Harry's face fall way down, oh no. He'd wanted to tell them hadn't he? Tell them. Was he crazy?
"Doesn't that feel in the slightest bit wrong to you?" Harry accused, "telling your friends a complete lie."
"I don't care as long as they don't find out about us"
Why did he say that! Oh god that was horrible, he wished he could take it back.
"So that's how you feel about us?" Harry demanded.
"Harry-"
"Are you ashamed of me Draco?" He said in such a small voice.
"No Harry! Of course not!" Couldn't Harry see how much he loved him?
"Really? Because that's how it looks to me. Draco, I love you so much that I don't care in the slightest what anyone thinks about us. I'd throw everything away. For you. But you! You stand their ready to throw me away if your friends slightly suspect something. Because you're afraid Draco! But I'm not going to wait around for you while you delude yourself that you can have your reputation and me. Don't let your fear get in the way of this! I know you love me Draco! But do you love me enough?"
"Harry I've told you I just need time-"Draco stuttered.
"You've had more than enough! You're just stalling Draco. You can't have both! Get over yourself. And when you have, come and tell me. Yes or No. Until then we're through."
And with that he turned and ran back to Gryffindor tower, leaving Draco feeling worse than he had ever had in his life.
