Hey all you wonderful readers! I am so sorry about not updating. I never really have a set schedule due to school and all for uploading, but this chapter was kind of hard to figure out. I wanted a different date that what I have read from people in the past. I hope this works. There isn't any mention onto who abused Pansy, but they may show back up at some point. I have a few plot bunnies on how that's going to happen! Draco does know who her ex is though, so just be aware of that. Anyways, I hope you like the date!

DRACO

Draco stood at his mirror as he pulled the tee over his head. Tonight was his date with Harry and he was ordered not to wear anything dressy whatsoever. The words were actually something like if you wear anything but jeans and a tee shirt, I will hurt you. Those came from Hermione and not the boy taking him out. She was also currently standing with Pansy in the other room. His best friend was still uncomfortable at her place, so she was with him at his. Hermione was on her way to pick up Teddy, who was currently with George at the joke shop. The boy was staying over at the muggle born's place and Draco was under instructions from Pansy to stay out very, very late.

He rolled his eyes at the conversation. He felt very casual wearing the outfit he had on. The jeans were bootcut and had holes in both knees, his feet cradled in biker boots. His tee was blue, which matched his eyes. Hell, if he was forced into these clothes, he's at least going to match his eyes to the top. Draco ran a brush through his hair, noticing that it was just down to the middle of his shoulder blades. He usually wore it in a bun or ponytail, so didn't realize it needed a trim. He walked out of his room as he heard Hermione call out her departure.

"You look good."

He smiled at Pansy and sighed. "I feel very under dressed."

She chuckled. "Considering where you usually went on dates, not surpris…"

A knock on the door interrupted the girl, who went to answer it since she was closer. "Harry."

He smiled and walked through the door. Draco had to admit, he looked good. He was wearing a pair of black jeans, a black shirt, and boots. Harry looked like a rocker just about to go on stage. Draco smiled at Harry, who smiled back. Pansy snuck out, mumbling something about Seamus on the way to the guest room.

"You look nice." Harry whispered, stepping closer.

Draco felt his cheeks flush, just a bit, and smiled. "You too. Where are we going?"

Harry took his hand as they went back out the door and smiled.

"Well, I knew you were most likely used to the uppity, snobby, shit. I'm not. I asked Mim for help because I wanted it to be different and unrecognizable. With you being you and me, well…"

Draco smiled and swung the hand holding Harry's. "I get it. You're right. I feel very under dressed."

Harry laughed and pulled him closer. "Trust me."

There was something in the green eyes looking at him and that made Draco nod, not able to speak. Harry wrapped the blonde man in his arms and then they disappeared. When they landed, Draco stood still, his arms still around Harry, trying to gain his balance once more. His head found its way onto the chest of the man holding him and he smiled a little when he felt lips in his hair, lightly kissing him. Draco felt a hand on his chin and tilted his head to look at Harry.

"How are you with muggle, now?"

Draco could see the pure curiosity and he smiled. "Did you not see my apartment?"

He saw the dark brows furrow and he smiled. "I have regular electricity and a washing machine. I cook the muggle way, clean that way to. Hell, Harry, I have a tele in my room."

He laughed at the surprised look and Harry smiled back at him. "Good, then I can show you."

Draco let the man lead him down the street to a field; what was there he couldn't describe. There was some big wheel thing with people on it. A train with a weird track, horses moving in a circle, and that was just what he could actually recognize. "What is this, Harry?" he whispered.

Harry leaned down just a tad and smiled, whispering in the other's ear. "A carnival. We're in Hermione's old neighborhood."

Draco turned to look at him, confused. "Don't get it."

Harry smiled and walked them further, pulling him closer so no one could hear them.

"A carnival is a bunch of muggle rides. I told you I wanted something different, Draco. I haven't been to one either. My aunt and uncle never took me."

Draco nodded and Harry moved a bit, there were children after all. Harry, being raised muggle, knew that a lot of them weren't as accepting of same sex couples either. Sure, they were slowly gaining equality, but some still disliked the concept. Draco smiled as the boy kept his hand intertwined with his as they walked. He took everything in, trying to figure out everything. He stopped, accidently pulling on Harry as he watched the wheel take people up. He tilted his head, trying to figure it out.

"Wanna ride?"

He jumped a bit and looked at his date. "Is it safe?"

Harry nodded. "Should be, and you're strapped. Mim says it's safer than brooms."

Draco looked back up and smiled, looking at the couple on the top. They could talk and not be heard. He smiled and looked back at Harry, "OK."

Harry nodded and they made their way to get some ticket bands.

"What's this, I thought…"

Harry nodded, "We are, have to purchase a paper bracelet."

Draco nodded, looking at their hands, watching as Harry ran his thumb over the back of his. When it was there turn, the blonde watched as Harry slowly wrapped the bracelet around him, his fingers causing tingles to run through his skin. He looked into the green eyes that were smiling back at him and smiled. He hadn't felt anything like this, not even with Vince. Harry took his hand in his again and led him to the wheel thing. They waited in line till it was their turn and Draco let Harry get in first to see how to do it. He sat next to the green eyed man and they lifted their hands as the worker shut the bar. Harry took his arm and put it behind Draco on the seat, and Draco smiled as he felt the other's fingers caressing the skin he could under the sleeve of his shirt.

They didn't say much because Draco was trying to figure out how it worked. They stopped for a second, almost to the top.

"Wow." He whispered and turned to look at Harry. "Just like a broom."

Harry nodded, putting his other hand to the boy's cheek. "I"m glad you agreed to this, Draco."

Draco leaned his forehead to Harry's. "Me to. I fancied you in school, y'know."

Harry pulled back. "Really? Mim is always saying I did you as well. Not that I haven't thought about it, but I had so much in my head. All I know is that when I saw you on that bathroom floor, something in me cried out for you. It was more than just you dieing, not that I wanted that. I dismissed it though. After Dumbledore, it was there again. I just never really figured it out till I walked in that store with Ted."

Draco smiled at him when he pulled back. "Same here. Pansy called me on it, of course. I'm sure Hermione did also."

Harry threw his head back and laughed. "Oh, yes. She reminded me loads of times."

Draco saw something in the other's eyes as Harry put his forehead back on his. "I'd kiss you right now if I knew we wouldn't get kicked out for being abominable in front of kids."

Draco closed his eyes, thinking on the touch of Harry's lips to his own. It was an enticing thought. He opened them to see green and smiled. "I know. I thought about that also. Are they as bad as home?"

Harry shrugged. "Yes and no. It's getting better, we have more say here than home. I just don't want to ruin anything tonight. It's our first date."

Draco took Harry's hand and wrapped his fingers through the webs of Harry's "First of many."

The smile on the face in front of him made Draco really want to kiss him.

When the ride was over, Draco let Harry pick the next ride. Harry took him to a big blue slide and they waited in line. They asked the guy if they could go together, claiming Harry was scared of heights, but his friend really wanted to ride it. The guy handed the potato bag to Draco and nodded, letting them through. When the finally got all the way to the top, Draco sat down first with Harry's legs outside his. He tensed when he felt Harry's arms lock around his torso and his breath on his ear. This was actually more intimate that he thought as they were climbing. Harry pushed them and then they went down. Draco had to admit it was fun.

They each took turns picking out the rides they were old enough for and before they knew it, the carnival was closing for the night. Harry pulled Draco to a stand with food. "Pick a color."

Draco looked at the bags of color in the window and sighed. "Um, pink?"

Harry nodded and Draco listened as he told the lady they wanted a pink cotton candy, what ever that was. Draco was having a blast though, so he wasn't going to complain. Harry took Draco's hand and the blonde let him lead them out of the grounds. When they got to the hill they apparated on, Harry sat and pulled Draco with him. "Try it."

Draco watched as Harry pulled a piece off and gave it to him. He took it and was surprised it was soft. He poked his tongue out and tasted it, putting the piece in his mouth when he figured out it was sweet. "Muggle treats aren't too bad."

Harry chuckled. "This I used to steal from Dudley. It's one of my favorites. Want some more?"

Draco nodded and Harry held the bag over, letting him pull some off.

They talked about small things, things they never really knew about the other as they ate the treat, the stars shining brightly. When they finished, Harry vanished the bag and leaned against the trunk of the tree behind them, pulling Draco to him. Draco sighed and laid his head on Harry's chest, his arms going around his waist. They didn't talk anymore, just held each other and watched the sky. Draco sighed as he felt one of Harry's hands caress his face, looking up. He smiled at the man, who was smiling back. Draco moved and met Harry halfway, lightly pressing their lips together. It was a soft kiss, but it was full of promises, things to come.

When he pulled back, he saw a twinkle in the green eyes that were looking into his. He leaned forward and kissed the boy again, pushing a bit harder to deepen it. He sighed as he felt Harry's tongue poke out to touch Draco's bottom lip. Draco opened his mouth, meeting Harry's tongue with his own. A moan came from both men as they melted into the kiss. It was nothing like ones Draco had before, that was certain. He moved to where he was on his knees, in front of Harry's legs that were crossed, and cupped his face with is hands. He felt Harry's hands find his waist and he let the other boy pull him into his lap, a groan coming out as Harry moved to kiss down his jaw. Draco moved to let Harry do whatever the hell he wanted to his neck, just as long as he kept doing it. It had been so long till he had felt another like this that didn't make him feel guilty. Harry pulled back and kissed him once more before leaning his head on the tree. "We need to stop." he panted.

Draco nodded, trying to gain his breath. "Agreed."

Harry cupped his face and smiled. "If I don't take you home, we're not going to make it."

Draco felt the shiver down his spine as he took in what the man with him insinuated, not that he'd mind. He had a feeling being with Harry would be the best thing he'd ever experience. Draco moved and helped Harry up, wrapping him in his arms as he apparated them back to his apartment. They reached just down the street and they walked quietly down to Draco's building. They walked, hand in hand up the stairs and stopped at Draco's door.

"It was fun, really."

Harry leaned down and lightly kissed him. "Yes, can't wait for the next one."

Draco smiled. "Me to, my turn so I'll have to figure out how to top yours."

Harry pulled him into a hug and kissed his hair. "Whatever it is will be great, I'll be with you."

Draco looked at Harry and he chuckled. "Cliche, I know."

They didn't say good bye, just gave one more kiss and then Harry stood while Draco opened and closed the door. Draco leaned against his front door and sighed. Harry was perfect, well not really, but for Draco he was. He slowly walked down to his room, deciding to just bathe in the morning and crawled into bed, sleeping immediately with dreams of Harry Potter and big wheels with cotton candy.

Hope you liked this chapter! Please remember to leave comments and questions at the end. OH, and someone asked about Seamus and Hannah. I write how I talk and think and so that's what came out. For those wondering, they aren't together like that. It will be explained at some point when Harry and Hermione asked their friend. Hope that clears up confusion! :)B
