Chapter 21: I Love You
"What?" Draco repeated in a quiet voice.
Harry stepped towards him. "I know I was supposed to spend my entire break from you thinking about things, but I have been thinking about it and Pansy, surprisingly, gave me the best advice. I love you, Draco, and I'm so sorry for hurting you and for acting as if your feelings weren't real or didn't mean anything to me because they do, they really do. I-" Harry was cut off by Draco waving his hands in front of him in a stopping gesture. Harry stared at him in confusion and bit his lip.
"Harry, come on, what are you doing?" Draco questioned.
"I'm telling you how I feel, how I've been feeling. Isn't that what you want?" he responded in confusion.
Draco threw his hands in the air. "Of course, but is that what you want?" he asked in exasperation.
"That's what I'm telling you! I want to be with you. I love you and I have for a long time. I wouldn't have spent hours sitting in the cold in Hogsmeade thinking about my feelings and my fears and then going to Parkinson so I could get to you if I didn't love you," Harry cried.
"But I thought you were afraid and that you were unsure and didn't want to get in too deep," Draco responded his voice quiet again.
"I was, I am, but Pansy told me that if everyone was afraid of falling in love and being with someone they love because they were afraid of losing them, then many of us wouldn't be here today. I want to be with you and I want you to let me love you. I just came here to tell you that," he replied.
He started stepping back towards the fireplace, but the look on Draco's face stopped him. He was looking at him in both a loving and tortured way. He looked like he wanted to grab him and kiss him senseless or punch him across the face. He chose the latter.
Draco stalked over to Harry, brought his fist back and punched him across the face. Harry staggered back and then fell down, his hand covering his aching jaw. He looked up at Draco in shock. Draco was breathing heavily as he glared down at him. Harry moved his jaw back and forth and winced as pain laced through his face.
Harry stood up carefully and faced Draco. "Yes, I deserved that and probably more than that," he commented quietly.
"You're damn right you deserve more than that! Gods, Harry, how could you possibly think that you could waltz in here and tell me that you love me and think that everything is okay?" Draco demanded.
"Well, I didn't think that everything was okay. I can't just come in here and say that to you and expect that. That's why I was going to leave and just give you space. I wanted you to know that I loved you and that I was sorry for making you feel like I didn't care and that I just wanted something physical," Harry explained.
Draco stared at him and then his shoulders sagged and he stepped back towards his bed and sat down. "I want to be so mad at you right now. I want to punch you a few more times, but I just can't. I wanted you to say that you loved me for longer than we've been on good terms," he professed.
"Do you want me to leave? I will. I know I've surprised you and everything so I'll go, if you want me to" Harry offered.
Draco looked up at him with wide eyes. "I don't know," he whispered.
Harry watched him for a moment and then stepped over to the fireplace. He lifted a pot that he assumed held floo powder and took some out and placed it in his hand. He turned to face Draco again and smiled at him. He was about to throw down the powder when Draco leapt from his bed and ran over grabbing him around the waist and pulling him back into his room. Harry let out a squeak as he dropped the powder all over the floor.
Draco kept his arms around his waist and held him against his body. Harry turned to jelly in his hold and molded himself to him. He sighed as he wrapped his arms around Draco and held him just as close to him. Draco settled his head on Harry's shoulder, turning to face the curve of his neck. He pressed his lips to the sweet spot between his neck and shoulder and gave him a feather light kiss. Harry shuddered beneath him and tipped his head back and let out a quiet moan. Draco continued to kiss his neck and then moved up to his jaw and kissed the quickly developing bruise that he had placed there. He felt Harry shake for a moment, but he immediately distracted him from the pain by pressing a kiss to his lips.
They tilted their heads to the side as Draco ran his tongue across Harry's lips asking for entrance. Harry immediately complied and they deepened their kiss. Harry's hands roamed up and down Draco's back. He ran one hand around and ran his fingers across Draco's taut stomach. Draco shuddered beneath him and brought one of his hands from Harry's waist to grip the hand that was on his stomach. He linked their fingers together and broke their kiss. He looked down at Harry with darkened silver eyes filled with love and need as he pulled him back towards his bed. Harry watched him cautiously, being sure that he didn't do something that would upset him. Draco shook his head at him as if reading his thoughts and pulled Harry onto the bed with him.
Harry was lying on his back, Draco lying next to him. His heart was beating rapidly, the feeling this time different than before. Draco pushed up on one elbow, his body against Harry's side. He reached out and brushed Harry's hair away from his forehead. He stared down at the lightning shaped scar and ran his finger over it gently.
"This represents everything that you are, Harry. Everything that you are to me. I grew up listening to stories about you and what you did. I admired you for being so powerful at such a young age, even if your mum added to the power you were born with. I've admired you for your strength and honesty even when you were infuriating me so much. After the war and the times that you saved me, my admiration and jealousy of you changed. I no longer just admired you, I loved you. I was no longer jealous of you. All I wanted was for you to see me and for you to love me and see me the way that I saw you. You are it for me. You are all that I want in my life," Draco explained as he continued to trace the scar.
Harry's heart was swelling with love and adoration for him throughout his entire speech. He reached up with his hands and cradled Draco's face in them. "I see you," he simply whispered. He pulled Draco down to him and pressed their lips together once again. He wound his arms up around his neck and ran his fingers through his soft hair. Draco settled over him and became a welcomed and seriously missed weight on Harry.
Draco broke the kiss again and returned to Harry's neck. They were both breathing heavily and had started moving their hips together at some point. Draco slipped his hands down Harry's sides and placed them at the hem of his shirt. He slid his hands underneath his shirt and brushed his fingers against Harry's warm skin. Harry arched his back at the touch and pushed himself more into him. Draco bit down on Harry's shoulder in response which only made Harry react even more. Draco gathered up his shirt in his hands and lifted it over Harry's head. He settled onto him again bare chest to bare chest and instantly felt the warmth radiating more off of Harry.
Draco returned his lips to Harry's and kissed him hard. He broke the kiss once more and sat up, straddling his hips. He could feel Harry's hardening member beneath him and had to bite his lip to keep from groaning at the pressure. He placed his hands on Harry's buckle and started to loosen it. Harry looked at him with wide eyes. He placed his hands over Draco's and held them in place.
"Are you sure?" he asked, knowing where this was going. He didn't want Draco to regret it.
Draco looked at him for a moment and then responded by removing his belt and crushing their lips together again. Harry ground against him in response. Draco fumbled with the button on his pants as he continued kissing Harry with fervor. Soon the button was undone and Harry was lifting his hips as Draco pulled his jeans off of him. He sat up reluctantly and quickly unbuckled and unbuttoned his pants and pulled them off as well.
Draco looked down at the bulge that was still within the confines of Harry's boxer briefs. He reached down tentatively and released him. Harry gripped the blankets beneath him and groaned at the touch. Draco grinned at him and then dipped his head and took Harry into his mouth. Harry cried out and bucked into him which he expected Draco to gag, but he simply placed his hands on Harry's thighs to keep him in place.
Draco moved up and down with expertise, swirling his tongue around and then up and down his shaft. Harry moved his hips, or tried anyway, and felt like he was going to burst at any moment. As if sensing that, Draco lifted his head and looked up at him. Harry frowned which caused Draco to chuckle quietly. Draco placed his hands at the waistband of Harry's boxers and pulled them off. Harry was now completely free. Draco did the same with his own boxers and settled himself once again on Harry.
They stared at each other for several seconds, assuring themselves that they wanted what they were getting ready to do. Harry smiled up at Draco and pulled him down into a tender kiss.
"I want you, Draco in all ways imaginable, if you'll have me," he whispered against his lips.
He felt Draco smile against his lips. "I've never wanted anything more," he responded quietly.
Harry grinned and pressed their lips together again. "Then I'm all yours," he responded.
Draco looked at him in surprise for a moment, not missing the implication of his statement. "You want me to, well, you know," he stuttered as he blushed deeply gesturing down at Harry's entrance. Harry started to laugh and nodded his cheeks coloring as well.
Draco gulped and nodded, but got off of Harry for a moment. Harry sat up on his elbows in confusion. He grinned when he saw Draco cast a quick spell at the floo and at his door. He then dimmed the candles in his room and gave a satisfied nod before returning to the bed. He continued to stand for a few seconds looking down at Harry who was lying so relaxed and completely at ease. He took another deep breath before he returned to lying on top of him. They kissed tenderly again and moved slowly against one another.
Draco broke their kiss and reached for his wand. He looked over at Harry, checking for assurance that he wanted him to continue. Harry nodded as he blushed. He shifted his body, spreading his legs wider then before. Draco's eyes widened as he looked down at Harry's entrance and his prominent cock. He took one last deep breath before he swished his wand quickly, muttering a quick spell. Harry cried out in surprise at the new sensation and then bit down on his lip.
Draco settled once again between his legs and ran his hand up his shaft a few times. Harry watched him nervously. Draco looked up at him again lovingly and then got up on his knees. He lifted Harry's hips and gripped them as he placed his hardness at his entrance. Harry gulped as he waited for the feeling of being filled, so he closed his eyes to steady himself and continued to breathe deeply. Finally, after what seemed like several minutes which were actually only mere seconds, he felt Draco begin pushing into him. He clenched his muscles there which caused Draco to stop and look down at him with a worried expression.
Harry recovered quickly and loosened himself again. He opened his eyes and looked at Draco, assuring him that he was okay. Draco nodded and bit his lip as he pushed slower into him. He was fighting the urge to thrust himself into him entirely because it felt so good inside of Harry. Finally, after stopping a few times he was completely sheathed. They both let out satisfied sighs and focused on each other once again.
"I love you. I truly do," Harry whispered.
Draco smiled at him. "I know," he replied quietly. He pulled back slowly and then forward. Harry closed his eyes again, gripping the sheets. He arched his back and Draco let out a growl at the sensation of Harry pulling him in deeper as if it was even possible. He started moving a bit quicker while he was stroking Harry's member. Harry rocked against him as best he could and then with an impish smile he wrapped his legs around Draco, pulling him in deeper. The sensation was too much for both of them and Harry clenched in order to try and stave off coming while the clenching caused Draco to start coming. He moved faster and faster into Harry as he came while simultaneously moving his hand up and down his shaft.
Finally, as Draco was riding out the last of his orgasm, Harry came, moaning Draco's name and gripping the sheets until his knuckles turned white. Draco stopped moving after he knew that Harry was done. He collapsed onto him, their limbs like jelly. They were breathing heavily and sticky with sweat and come. They were pressing kisses to any place that they could put them which turned out to only be a few places as they were too spent to move much.
Draco pushed himself up onto his elbows and looked down at Harry. He smiled down at him and pressed a light kiss to his lips. "I love you too," he responded lovingly.
Harry grinned and captured his lips in a passionate kiss before he broke it again and looked down at their stomachs. Draco looked down and reached for his wand again. He waved it over their bodies and they were instantly clean. Draco got off of Harry and looked down at the ground by his bed. He picked up their boxers and tossed a pair to Harry. Harry slipped them on and then looked around unsurely.
Draco looked over at him and smiled. He climbed back on the bed and laid down on his pillows. Harry popped up on one elbow and looked at him questioningly. Draco patted the spot next to him and Harry quickly moved up next to him. Draco pulled the blankets out from beneath him and Harry crawled under them. Draco settled beneath them as well and pulled Harry against him.
"Stay with me tonight," he whispered against his hair.
"Are you sure?" Harry asked uncertainly.
"I'm as sure as your eyes are the most beautiful shade of green that I have ever seen," Draco replied cheekily.
Harry laughed and turned to look over his shoulder at him. Draco kissed him again and sighed contentedly as Harry wrapped his arms around him and deepened the kiss.
