He was home. It was what he had been craving for months. Draco was surprised to find that every little thing was still in place from the day he left. The house still smelled like a mixture of pine cones and mint and his favorite china dishes were still lined up on the bar. Taking a few steps inside, he ran his fingers along the leather couch. He remembered they had argued over it for hours because Draco didn't like the color. The ghost of their argument echoed in his ears. In the end, Harry had gotten his way and the couch still sat in the middle of the living room.
"Is this uncomfortable for you?"
Draco snapped out of his thoughts. "Why do you ask?"
"I hope this isn't happening too soon." Harry nervously picked at his sleeve. "I want you to come home for good."
Harry's nervousness was affecting Draco like nails on a chalkboard. He wanted to cringe but he kept his composure. "Weren't you just telling me to get over you? I don't understand this sudden change in heart."
"I'm not a perfect person. I'll admit that I was cheating on you." Harry walked over to the bar and poured himself a glass of wine. He sat out a glass for Draco. "I thought there was something between Cho and me, but she's nothing like I thought she would be."
"So you ruined a perfectly great relationship to take a chance on her. Wow, she must be awesome in the sack." Draco downed his glass of wine and stared at Harry fiercely.
"We…"
"I found her panties under my bed." Draco interrupted. "You don't have to lie."
Harry crossed his arms. "So what about it? You slept with Cedric. I bet he had you up against the wall with your-"
"I never had sex with him." Draco snapped. "Even if he fucked me on The Great Wall of China while tourists watched, it doesn't matter. We weren't in a relationship. I have more respect for myself than that." Sighing, Draco took a sip of his wine. "I wish you would respect me just the same."
"Alright." Harry put up his hands in protest. "We're being hostile towards each other again. Let's just call it a clean slate from now on."
Draco grit his teeth to keep a snarl from surfacing on his face. Harry always found away to clear the slate for himself but always left things lingering over Draco's head. "I still have no idea why you want me back."
"Don't play dumb. I can't stand seeing you with Cedric." Harry shook his head as he ran his fingertips along the wine glass. "I usually don't admit that you're right, but seeing you with Cedric did make me jealous. You belong with me."
Draco frowned. It seemed like Harry was getting upset over losing a parking spot rather than the love of his life. "So what now?"
Harry took Draco's hand and led him to the couch. He took Draco's hand into his own. "I know we've been through a lot. But I want to make it up to you. I love you Draco and I never want to hurt you again.
Draco had heard the speech before. It was like a cycle. Harry would be nice for a couple of months but he would end up hurting Draco again, just like he always did. It was a vicious cycle that had taken an emotional toll on Draco. He sat silently, his grey eyes studying the nubby fingers that were wrapped around his own. He always hated the fact that Harry was a nail biter.
"I've missed you." Harry brought his lips to Draco's and they shared a kiss.
Draco didn't close his eyes. He stared at Harry's dusky lashes. Something didn't feel right. He knew he should be happy that he was getting Harry back, but nausea was growing in the pit of his stomach. He felt like an animal about to be caged in and his heart beat frantically. Finally, he pushed the dark haired boy off of him.
"What? Why are you acting so weird?"
"I hate this couch." Draco said quietly.
"What?" Harry looked at the couch and back to Draco.
"I hate this fucking couch and this piece of shit coffee table." Draco stood up and nonchalantly tossed the coffee table across the room.
"Draco! What the hell is wrong with you?" Harry jumped up and stared at Draco in disbelief.
Taking a deep breath, a smile crept up on Draco's face. "Honestly, I've never felt better."
"You need help." Walking over to the coffee table, he surveyed the damage. "You better hope this glass isn't broken or else."
"Or else what? You'll break up with me so we can start this cycle all over again? Your threats mean nothing to me."
"I don't like your tone of voice, Draco. You need to change it."
"No, Harry. I'm finally talking with some sense." Draco shook his blonde hair out of his eyes and glared at Harry. "I'm tired of you making decisions for me, like what couch we have or when you're going to break up with me or when you're going to get bored and fuck someone else. I've had enough!"
Rubbing his brow, Harry leaned against the wall. "I invite you here and now you tell me that you've had enough. What are you suggesting?"
The old Slytherin smirk returned to Draco's face. "You're a sick person and you need to get over our breakup."
Harry was slapped in the face by the familiarity of his own words. His face turned a nasty shade of red as his mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water.
"I know you're speechless dear." Draco leaned back, his nails scratching marks into the leather couch. "Obviously you can't live without me. You'll just have to find a way."
"You pompous arrogant twat! You can't do this to me!" Harry spat.
"Now now doll. I'm taking a chance of being alone. It's got to be a hell of a lot better than being with you."
"Get out!" Harry picked up a discarded book from the coffee table and threw it at Draco's head.
"Goodbye love." Draco slipped out the door, narrowly escaping another book aimed for him.
Rain poured down outside, soaking Draco's jacket and plastering his hair to his forehead but a goofy grin was stuck on his head. He realized to anyone else he looked like a madman but he didn't care. It felt like a weight had been lifted off of his chest and he could dance in the rain. He could feel confidence coursing through his veins and he felt like himself. As he merrily skipped down the road, he pulled the crumpled picture from the ball out of his coat pocket. Some of the colors had run and he noticed ink on his fingers from the back of the photo. He quickly flipped it over and read the scrawled message.
I want you to know that I let you go for your own happiness. Some lessons have to be learned on your own. Eventually you will come to understand that love heals everything, and love is all I have to give to you. Just give me a chance when you're ready.
-Cedric
Steady knocking on his door interrupted Cedric's reading. It was almost 12 AM and he was deep into studying his lines. He opened his door to find a rain soaked Draco Malfoy standing on his doorstep. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm not exactly sure but it feels right."
Cedric scrunched his brows. "I'm confused.
Suddenly Draco tackled Cedric with a kiss, sending them both toppling over on the floor.
Draco broke the kiss, staring down at a bewildered Cedric. "It felt so good to do that."
Nodding his head, Cedric smiled. "I'll take a kiss like that any day, even if you are soaking wet. Lets get you out of those damp clothes."
Soon Draco was sitting comfortably in front of Cedric's fireplace, his hands wrapped firmly around a cup of hot chocolate.
"I've got the marshmallows." Cedric sat down next to Draco. "Roasted marshmallows are always great for a story. I leave you a couple of hours ago and suddenly you show up on my doorstep drenched. You've got to tell me what happened."
"There's really no story to tell. The truth managed to slap me in the face finally. I know what I want and I know what I deserve and it's certainly not Harry Potter."
"If you say you're not good enough for him, I'm afraid I'm going to have to slap you."
Draco smiled to himself. "No. I'm done with that chapter in my life. Feels good to start fresh." He took a sip of his hot chocolate. "Forgive me if I came on too strong."
"That's alright. I was waiting for you."
"What?" Draco turned to Cedric.
"I knew you would come back to me."
"You're a cocky bastard.
Cedric smirked. "I might be a cocky bastard, but you know I'm right."
"Yes, you are." Draco stared down at his glass. "I'll cut the formalities. I've been lying to myself since the day I met you." He sighed. "I'm attracted to you. You and I both know that. But I want something more than just a sexual fling. You make me feel giddy like I'm a child and to be honest I'm afraid to love you."
Cedric turned Draco's face so that they were looking directly at each other. "I can't promise that we won't have our ups and downs and I can't promise that we would last forever but I have faith in you and me. I'm willing to take that chance if you are. That's why I waited for you, Draco."
Draco smiled as he blushed lightly. "I'm…I'm willing."
"To us?" Cedric held up his mug.
"To us." Their hot chocolate mugs clanked together.
Holding their marshmallows over the fire, they shared sensual glances.
"Open up." Draco grabbed a sticky marshmallows and stuck it in Cedric's mouth.
"Its all over my face. Your turn." Cedric messily shoved a marshmallow into Draco's mouth.
"Ugh its so sticky."
"I'll get rid of it for you." Cedric proceeded to lick off the excess marshmallow, his tongue gliding across Draco's face. Their lips met again and they shared a sticky sweet kiss, their tongues lazily caressing each other.
Draco's fingers danced across the floor until they found Cedric's and locked together.
Cedric leaned over and whispered softly into Draco's ear. "I want to make love to you."
The words were simple enough but Draco could hear the sexiness dripping off each word like sticky molasses. Leaning against Cedric, a smirk spread across Draco's face. "So you're admitting that you want my body."
"I want all of you." Cedric's sticky lips ghosted across Draco's neck. "I want you to be mine."
Draco felt prickly all over as heat radiated from his body. He had never been with a man who was so confident. It was refreshing. Usually with Harry, there would be a lot of awkward fumbling and misspoken words. In the end, Draco would take control. But now, he was enjoying the sensual dance of control between the two. He arched his neck to gain more contact against lover's lips. The heat growing between Draco's legs was unbearable. He had to ease the sexual tension he had been trying to ignore for weeks. He sighed, his cheeks flushed and rosy. "I want to suck your cock." His eyes trailed down to the bulge in Cedric's pants.
"I love it when you're straight forward." Smiling, Cedric's long nimble fingers quickly worked to unbutton his pants and free his own manhood from the confines of his underwear.
Taking a moment to soak in the sight before him, Draco purred. "You're like an Adonis."
Chuckling slightly, Cedric stroked himself. "Admiration wont get you in my pants...or maybe it will."
Draco's hands joined Cedric's and they stroked in unison. Grey eyes locked together in a moment. Draco kissed his way down his lover's neck.
Cedric let out a loud groan. "Turn around and undress yourself. I want to see all of you."
Draco was apprehensive about having Cedric watch him disrobe but he complied. He dropped his pants and underwear and stood in all his naked glory. His bare back was illuminated by the firelight and the shadows of flames danced across his bare bottom. Draco felt excitement and his confidence level soared once again. "Do you like what you see?"
"I had no idea."
"What?"
"You're just too gorgeous for words."
Draco blushed. It had been a long time since someone had blatantly appreciated his body.
"Come here." Cedric beckoned. "Sit on my lap facing me."
Draco straddled Cedric and lowered himself.
Wrapping his hand around the head of Draco's cock, Cedric nudged the Slytherin into another kiss. His stroking increased, causing Draco to squirm on his lap with pleasure.
Draco's head rolled back as gasps escaped his throat.
Taking his other hand, he reached around and massaged Draco's entrance. "I wasn't sure if you would come back to me."
Draco leaned back, pressing against Cedric's fingers. It had been way too long. "I'm drawn to you like a moth to light." Running his fingers through Cedric's touseled hair, he grinned. "I would have been stupid to miss this."
"Good to know you're enjoying yourself." He added another finger inside of Draco. "I can only imagine what it would feel like to be inside of you."
"You're going to have to find out immediately because I can't take the teasing." Draco groaned. "I've never wanted anything else more than I want you right now."
"Its sexy when you plead for me." Cedric scissored his fingers.
Growling, Draco dug his nails into Cedric's back. "I'm not pleading. I'm demanding you." Pushing Cedric's hands away, he slowly pushed the head of Cedric's cock inside him and slid down on his shaft.
"Fuck, that feels amazing." Cedric hissed.
Draco gasped as he fully seated himself. "Ditto."
Cedric stroked Draco's cheek. "I've never been with anyone like this before."
"Then its my duty to show you what you have been missing." Draco lifted his hips and slowly bounced up and down on Cedric's cock.
Cedric's expression turned from curiosity to absolute pleasure. "You're so tight."
"I know. I'm amazing right?" Draco continued to ride his cock, sweat beads forming on his lower back.
"More than amazing. You're...mmmhphh..."
"Loss of words. Happens a lot with me."
Suddenly, Cedric pushed Draco on his back and rammed his cock back inside him. "Now let me show you why you made the right decision."
Draco howled as a jolt of pleasure flooded through him. "Ahhh..."
Cedric continued thrusting, stroking Draco's cock. "Why aren't you talking now huh?"
Draco was speaking but he wasn't forming coherent sentences. "Oh...Mmmmmhmmm...right there...shit shit SHIT! Oh god...Oh god." His fingers dug into Cedric's hips as he pushed his lover deeper inside him.
A deep moan rumbled in Cedric's chest. "I'm not stopping until you come all over me."
Draco abruptly turned silent as his back arched off the floor. His fingers gripped Cedric so tightly that they left imprints. A banshee cry escaped his throat as the orgasm ripped from his body. He squirted his seed up in the air and all over Cedric.
"God you're clamping down on me. Fuck Draco!" Cedric grimaced as he came inside of Draco. He collapsed on top of his lover.
"Why did we wait so long to do that?" Draco mumbled as he kissed his lover's neck.
Cedric chuckled. "Good things come with time."
Sitting up, he looked into Cedric's eyes. "What's next?"
"Well I suppose we're going to take a nap. Then, we're going to have another round, sleep again, and I'm taking you out for breakfast."
Draco snuggled against Cedric's chest. "Sounds magnificent. How about we go to that pancake place?"
"I wanted waffles."
Draco frowned. "I don't like waffles."
"We will toss a coin. Loser gets to go naked."
Laughing heartily, Draco placed a kiss on Cedric's cheek. He wasn't sure if he was Mr. Right, but Cedric had proved to be Mr. Right Now…and that was just what Draco needed.
