Chapter 7: Things escalated quickly

"Harry," said Hermione once I entered through the Fat Lady's portrait hole. "Um, about what we talked earlier today… Well, I think I know what you should_" She saw the smile on my blushing face. "Oh, I guess you already knew what to do…" She winked. "But come on… tell me EVERYTHING!"

"Um, Hermione, this is rather private, you know." I can't keep my eyes on her without getting redder.

"He kissed you?" She asked excitedly.

"Well, I did it."

Her jaw dropped. "Oh my stars, I never thought that you would be the one to make the first move!"

"And why is that then?"

"Oh, you know I meant no offence. It's just, when I pictured it in my mind it was Malfoy who made the first move. He just seems more dominant. No offence but you got admit it."

"Seems like you spend so much time thinking about this..."

"Because I am always worried about you, idiot. But now, it seems like you've finally known what you want and what you should do. I am so happy for you, Harry." She pulled me into a tight embrace.

"Thanks, Hermione. Without your help, I'd still be in denial."

"Mmm, Harry. I want to talk you about something else too. Ginny has been complaining to me lately that you're ignoring her completely."

"Yes I am."

"But, Harry, she's your friend! Even if you broke up with her, she's still your friend."

"She cheated on me!" Ok, that was an exaggeration, but she was the guilty one anyway…

"Don't be ridiculous! That isn't cheating. Besides, she thought the relationship was already over."

"Oh, really? Very good excuse!"

"Well, you didn't see her all summer."

"I was trying to give her time to recover from her brother's death! And we didn't have a proper break-up, so how did she think that we broke up?"

"You broke up on the day of Dumbledore's funeral. I perfectly remember that."

"But we got along very good after that when I stayed at the Burrows before leaving for the Horcrux Hunt."

"But that doesn't mean that you returned back to being boyfriend and girlfriend. Look, I am neither blaming you nor her, and I am not trying to get you back together, obviously, given what I've done to help you with your Malfoy-problems. But at least, you have to stay friends with her. For the sake of all the years we've lived together."

"OK, I'll give it a try…"

She didn't look convinced.

"Honestly…" I assured her.

"I hope you keep your word. She doesn't deserve this, you know. She has been in a terrible mood recently."

I wanted to say 'Good', but Hermione won't forgive me for that.

The next morning at breakfast, I tried to be friendly with Ginny. I sat beside her and apologized for freaking out when I saw her making out with Dean.

"Harry, that was months ago." But she looked like she's been waiting so long for me to apologize.

I saw Draco entering the Hall and searching for me. Once our eyes met, he gave me a questioning look. I didn't know if he was wondering why I'm sitting at the Gryffindor Table or why I'm sitting beside Ginny, so I just gave him an apologetic look and stayed where I was.

Ginny continued talking and babbling about many things, and I was just like 'Mmm, yeah, great… I know… Yeah…' I was startled when I was shoved away from her by strong hands and felt someone sitting between us. "Malfoy?" I asked, not quite believing my eyes. What made him suddenly break his rule of 'not sitting with the Gryffindors?' His face was flushed from anger, and I had no idea why. He cupped my jaw and kissed me on the lips, not caring that the whole table – or maybe the hall – was watching. I heard whistles and disgusted sounds too. I was speechless. Everyone's eyes were on us. Despite being so embarrassed, the stunned looks on Ginny and Ron's faces were hilarious. I barely fought a laugh.

I thought that Malfoy must have pinched Ginny on the leg or something, because she left this side of the table and went to sit beside Hermione, who looked like she too was fighting a strong urge to laugh.

"Malfoy!" I said with a very shocked voice. "What are you doing?"

"Nothing, Harry. Just missed you, so I thought it'd be lovely to have breakfast with you. Did you finish?"

Before I could say 'No', he said "Good, because I need to talk to you." He grabbed my arm and dragged me out of the hall.

"What the bloody fuck are you doing, Malfoy?"

Once we got out of the Great Hall and into an empty corridor, he pushed me hard against a wall… again. "HOW DARE SHE SIT BESIDE YOU?" He shouted loudly. "And why didn't you wait for me for breakfast? Why did you sit at the Gryffindor Table? WHY WERE YOU TALKING TOHER?"

"Malfoy are you mad? What's going on?"

He surprised me even further when he pinned my hands over my head against the wall and kissed me hard with tongue and all. I had no choice but to melt under his charm and devour his sweet lips.

"Sorry…" He said once our lips parted. "I over-reacted."

"Yes you did," I said. "But why? Oh, Merlin!" I started to realize why Draco was acting so weird... "Malfoy!" I said disbelievingly. "You are jealous!"

He tried to give me a look that would tell me that I am wrong, but failed. "Well, duh! I know she's all over you. And you ignored me and sat with her! And talked to her! What did you expect me to do?"

"Ginny is only_"

"Why do you call her Ginny?"

"What?"
"Her name is Ginevra. Calling her 'Ginny' makes her special to you."

I laughed. "Malfoy… You did this all because you were jealous of Ginny?"

He nodded.

"But you know I don't like her anymore. I was just trying to be friendly to her, because Hermione thought that I was ignoring her. She wanted me to assure Ginny that we're still friends. Just friends, Malfoy. And Ginny isn't all over me. She is dating Dean Thomas. If you could just have let me explain, there would be no need for all of this." I chuckled. "But I have to admit that this way is cuter. Seriously? Jealous, Malfoy?"

He blushed and I pulled him forward for another bruising kiss. Soon, Malfoy returned back being the dominant one, pinning me hard to the wall and devouring my mouth. I started to get turned on when I felt Malfoy's hard cock poking my groin. He pulled my waist and rubbed our erections together. I was so breathless and overwhelmed with lust. Once our lips parted for oxygen, Malfoy said, "We have to… do this… more often."

I took a few seconds to catch my breath before replying. "Good thinking! When?"

"Today. Eight in the evening. My dormitory."

I made a sound that might have been a giggle. "Sounds nice!"

I gave him a quick final kiss and left with a smile from the ear to the ear.

I was lying atop him, clutching his hair with one hand while the other was under his shirt. His hands, however, were in a more dangerous position. They were cupping my arse cheeks from under my pants. His tongue was also doing its own magic, reaching regions in my mouth that I never even knew existed. I was overwhelmed with lust and strong desire. I didn't hesitate to unbutton his shirt and pinch his nipples erect, earning a moan that vibrated in my mouth. In return, he unfastened my belt and somehow managed to pull my trousers off without our lips breaking contact. I could feel his hard member beneath me and I pushed my groin on his, grinding our hard cocks together. He slipped his hands under my pants once again and squeezed, before pulling the pants down too. He was now touching me and Oh lord, it felt brilliant! I knew I won't last long, but I refused to come undone before him, so I started unzipping his trousers, and without taking them off, I pulled his hard cock out of the fly. I tried not to scream out I AM HOLDING MALFOY'S COCK WITH MY BARE HANDS! His mouth moved downward and started kissing my throat, and so I could properly hear his moans – and to be fair, mine too – as we stroked each other's cocks. I came first without a warning, spilling my seed on his bare torso. He followed me, fighting a scream by biting my throat then healing it with his tongue, as he came explosively in my hand. The sexual tension that was accumulated for years was in one moment discharged.

I collapsed on him, panting and feeling sticky with sweat and cum. For moments, we stayed silent, in which I was processing what had just happened. I couldn't believe how quickly this thing between us was going on. It scared me a bit, but I felt great. It was hot! I was never turned on like that before. I let out a long breath and hugged Malfoy's bare body.

"That was… I can't find a proper word to describe it. I can't believe we actually did this!" He laughed. "If someone had told me five months ago that Harry Potter will one day give me a hand job and I will like it, I'd have killed them and their whole family."

"Regrets?"

"Not at all, Harry."

And for this 'Harry', I awarded him with my best devouring kiss I can give. We could have stayed snogging the whole night, till we became hard and came again a million times, but our sticky bodies started to make us uncomfortable. So I casted cleaning charms on both of us, and quickly dressed, suddenly feeling very exposed. Malfoy was smiling, and I knew it was because I was blushing hard. I noticed he was still half nude, and only then did I have the chance to properly see Malfoy's glorious package. I felt myself getting hard again as I watched Malfoy putting his soft cock back into his pants and zipping his trousers.

"Stay with me for the night," he pleaded.

"At your service!" I tiptoed to the bed I usually use when I spend the night here, but Malfoy grabbed my arm to stop me. "No, I meant, with me here on the bed. My bed."

I swallowed. He smiled widely and moved away to give me some room, and I gave in. I curled under the cover beside him. His face hovered above mine then leaned down to give me a kiss. "Good night, my Harry." My heart may have stopped for a moment.

My Harry…

When I woke up, it took me so long to remember why I am smiling foolishly and feeling so happy. Malfoy's arms and legs were wrapped around my body; he was spooning me protectively as we were sleeping on his bed, with our clothes on. Somehow it seemed difficult to accept that last night was real and not just the most erotic wet dream. Just a month ago, Malfoy was barely a friend of mine. Now he is my boyfriend?

"Good morning, Harry," Malfoy's voice whispered in my ears.

"Oh, you're awake?"

"Duh!" He chuckled then kissed my neck and said "you might need to wear roll-neck sweaters to hide those possessive marks I've left on your neck last night." His face hovered over mine to look at me in the eye.

"I am not afraid to show it," I smirked.

"Good." He kissed me passionately then stood up and pulled me off the bed. "Come on. We can't stay here all day. We have classes to attend."

"I hate Mondays," I groaned.

"Who doesn't?"

Today at breakfast, Malfoy was about to kill me when I suggested sitting at the Gryffindor Table again. I gave up and sat beside him, like I always do. I can feel Hermione's looks directed on me from across the hall, which was irritating because this wasn't the first time I sit with Malfoy, so why was she smirking and winking at me? Blimey, are we that obvious? It was as if she knew everything what happened between us last night.

"Malfoy," I said after we finished our plates. "We need to talk…"

"I hate those words! Talk about what?"

"About this…" I said, pointing a finger between him and me.

"This what?"

"This relationship or whatever that is between you and me."

He frowned but nodded. "Fine. Let's talk."

"Not here, of course!"

"OK. Meet me after dinner, down beside the lake."

"Okay. In the meantime, we'll think of what do we really want."

And so we met in our usual meeting place. Malfoy was already there waiting for me when I got there.

"Hey!" He said once he saw me coming then took me in his arms and kissed me.

"Thanks," I said, feeling a blush burn on my face. "So… where do we begin?"

"I want you!" He said suddenly. It took me moments to realize what he said.

"What?" I asked once I was able to talk.

"I thought about it all day, and finally decided that I want you, Harry. I want to be with you."

"Listen, Malfoy, we can't rush like that. We have to take everything slowly. A month ago we were barely friends. And now you say you want… I don't know… We are here to talk. Calmly and reasonably."

"I meant every word I said to you."

"Malfoy, I've been wondering if you're… um… attracted to me only because I am the only one you know well? Don't get me wrong, but if it was a normal year at Hogwarts and you were with your friends and everything was great for you, would you still have said that to me?"

Malfoy stayed silent for moments, looking all thoughtful. Then he repeated "I meant every word I said to you. I want you. And no, it's not like what you think. Even if I had other people to share company with, and I had seen the real you, not the person I thought you were, I would've said the same. I don't want you only because I have no one but you, no. I want you because that's how my heart feels. I want to be with you every day. I want to kiss you senseless every time I see you. I want us to be like… you know… boyfriends!"

I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. My heart danced with joy when Malfoy said that last sentence.

"What about you, Harry? You know, sometimes I don't know what's going on your mind. Sometimes I can't read your face, and that's saying something because you always wear your emotions on your sleeve. But now…"

"I know. I am just so confused. Things escalated quickly for me. First, I discovered that I am gay, and not just that, but that I was always gay and I didn't realize it. Then I became confused about my true feelings toward you, but now I am pretty sure that you are more than a friend to me."

"It's good to know that." Malfoy smiled openly and leaned down to kiss me. Within moments, we were on the ground with him lying on me. I was grabbing his soft hair tightly and kissing the hell out of him. He brushed his tongue on my lips seeking permission in and instantly sending a jolt straight to my cock. Our tongues were battling, and with every stroke of his tongue on mine, I can feel myself getting harder and harder. He moved his hips to rub our crotches together, and it felt too damn good! I moved my hands from his head and down to cup his so round buttocks. I was so turned on that if we'd stayed like that for a couple of minutes more, I would have reached orgasm with him only rubbing our erections together. I managed to unfasten Draco's tight trousers to free his trapped cock without our lips parting. I could feel Malfoy's hand unbuttoning my shirt slowly then his cold hand touched my bare chest and pinched my nipples. I have to admit that I was making inappropriate sounds that were thankfully trapped in Draco's mouth, but not for long because his mouth started moving down, kissing and nipping the skin of my neck. He shifted downward and soon his arse was out of reach, so I tugged at his hair instead. I moaned some unintelligible words when I felt his mouth sucking on my nipple and his tongue doing some wonderful job there. His tongue traveled downwards licking all the way from my chest till my navel.

"Malfoy…" I managed to say between moans, "what if someone sees us?" We weren't exactly in a private place. It was unlikely that we'd be seen, though, except if anyone suddenly wanted to take a walk beside the lake shore, exactly at the same location we were.

"I don't care!" He said and resumed giving kisses on the area under the navel, which I never thought would be that sensitive. His hands were busy taking my trousers off completely, and so were mine, pulling his shirt over. Soon, we were both with nothing but our pants. Draco stopped when his head was directly above my crotch then looked up at me smirking and I could feel my face burning. He used two fingers to drag my pants slowly downward and finally free my very hard cock. He looked at me again smiling, and I blushed redder feeling very exposed. I felt him slowly grasping my length and stroking. And – Oh, God – with one sudden lick of his tongue on my dickhead, I nearly came. He took my cock slowly into his mouth, and I moaned like a girl. Slowly, my whole cock was inside his warm mouth and it felt amazing. His hands pinned my hips to the ground to stop them from thrusting in his mouth. He started sucking, getting faster and faster every second, as I moaned louder and louder. His brilliant tongue was doing amazing things that made me wonder where Draco had learned about it. His hands were cupping my balls and I felt it coming. I was about to reach my orgasm. I pulled him from his hair to warn him, but he only sucked harder and took me deeper in his throat until I felt his nose touching my groin. And here it came. I came so hard in Draco's throat until I saw stars. Malfoy continued swallowing and sucking until I was boneless. I was panting hard trying to get back to consciousness. "That was…" I finally said once I was able to talk again, "the most brilliant thing that ever happened to me!"

Malfoy sat up and smiled. "Yeah?"

I was surprised to know that I still had enough energy to throw myself on him. "Thanks," I said and kissed him.

"Like the taste of your own cum?" Malfoy smirked.

The truth: no. It tasted so weird and salty. But it was bearable. "You actually took it all in your mouth!"

"Potter, you are perfect at pointing out the obvious."

I moved down until his crotch was in front of me. "My turn," I said and smirked.

Before I can pull his pants off, he said, "No… Um, I sort of… came in my pants earlier."

I chuckled and he hissed "Shut up!"

"Hey! That's my line. Still, that doesn't mean that you can't come again. Want to put this under the test?" I put my hand on his privates through his pants and noticed how wet they were. I stroked lightly and played with his soft balls. Then, I took his pants off, and only now did I properly see Malfoy's cock. I couldn't compare it now to mine since it was still soft, but I could tell that his was probably longer, but maybe not thicker. I slowly stroked it feeling him getting harder in my hands. Malfoy wasn't any better than me in the sounds that were coming out of his mouth. He too was closing his eyes tightly and producing high-pitched moans. I hated to think that I was looking like that a couple of minutes ago.

I stroked harder and harder until his dick became hard enough to take in my mouth. I didn't know what to do. I had absolutely no experience doing that, but I thought if Malfoy could do it, then so could I, since I knew that he didn't have any experience either. So I tried to remember how he'd done it and did the same and also added some moves of my own. I licked his cock from the base till the head then licked the head with the tip of my tongue. Then I took it in my mouth. I sucked slowly up to the head first then took the whole of it in my mouth. Judging by Malfoy's moans and the rate at which his cock swelled, I was doing it right. He started thrusting in my mouth, so I pinned his waist to the ground to stop him, like he did. I became the dominant one now and I had him under my mercy. Soon, his cock reached its full length and I could barely fit it in my mouth. I sucked and swallowed his precum and licked his shaft all at the same time, remembering how he had done the same. My hands were playing with his balls, cupping them tightly then rolling them between my fingers. Malfoy was moaning so loud and grasping my hair to push my head down getting his cock deeper in my throat, and I knew he was near. I panicked, because I didn't know if I will be able to swallow or not. I wanted to do it. I wanted him to see stars as he came in me, like how I felt when he was sucking me off. I guessed that it won't be a big deal and I can bear the taste for sure.

"Don't stop!" He said when I took him out of my mouth and stoked his wet cock hard.

"Malfoy!" I said. "Look at me while you come."

"Okay…" He nodded. "Please, Harry…"

Before I obliged, I took moments to admire Draco's wet cock that stood out of thin blonde hair with its pink head, begging to be sucked again. I had guessed right; Draco's dick was long, definitely longer than mine but not thicker.

I sucked hard and felt his thigh muscles contracting. He moaned loudly with his eyes on me and that was probably the hottest thing I'd ever seen: Draco naked and under my control, with his dick in my mouth. I myself was starting to get hard again at this sight. With a final "Harry," Malfoy came in my throat and I quickly swallowed it all. I had to swallow really fast before the next wave of cum comes. When his cock finally softened, I planted several kisses on it before shifting upward. I traced the thin line of hair from his crotch till his navel with my tongue then planted kisses here and there until I reached his chest. I sucked on a nipple, making it go erect instantly, and pinched the other with my hand. Then, I kissed and nipped his neck, leaving marks of ownership on his beautiful pale skin, and finally caught his lips in mine. I didn't notice until now how much I loved the way Malfoy clutches my hair when we kiss. I guess I know now why he always wants me to stroke his hair.

"You're beautiful!" I said, once our lips parted to avoid suffocation. "I mean, really beautiful! You're flawless! My boyfriend is the most handsome man on Earth! I must brag about you in front of everyone and go telling them 'Yes, he's my boyfriend, not yours, bitches!'"

"Oh, stop it! You're making me blush."

I chuckled before giving him a brief kiss.

"We can't stay here forever." He said.

"Am I crushing you?"

He chuckled. "No, you're surprisingly light."

"Then why should we move? I want to have you in my arms the whole night."

"Because you're crushing me."

"Really?" I asked moving away from him.

"Oh, you look so adorable!" He said before answering, "No. But see, it worked."

I searched for my wand and my glasses in the grass then casted cleaning charms on Malfoy's wet pants so he can wear them again. It was slightly awkward when we dressed, so I turned my back to Malfoy and I could see him by the corner of my eyes checking out my ass as I dressed.

"You look like a tomato," he noted once we were fully clothed.

"Shut up…"

He chuckled. We went back to the castle holding hands.

"Will you tell your friends about us?"

"What do you think? Do you want me to? I mean, Hermione already knows and even if she didn't, she'll know instantly, and Ron have his doubts. But should we tell everyone else?"

"Well, I don't mind. But, you're The Chosen Boy Who Saved the World or whatever they call you these days, so it will be on the papers once it is out."

"Will your mother be OK with it?"

"No. But she won't do anything. She'll give me some words, nothing more."

"I should have known that she won't approve on me. She had already warned you from spending much time with me, didn't she?"

"No, no, no. It's not because it's you. It's because you're a boy. Mom knows I am gay, but she believes that I am just confused and uncertain about my sexuality." Malfoy snorted.

"So, are you ready for all of this?"

"I have nothing to lose, Harry. You should ask yourself. You're the one who'll get the hate howlers and letters."

"As my godfather used to say, 'what's life without a little risk?' Besides, I don't give a fuck what people think. I never did. Stories were written about me every day on the news, and half of them were lies, and most of the times you were the reason behind those lies." I smiled. "The old version of you at least."

"But you have to admit, I am hilarious."

"You never realized what dangers your lies had led me to. But anyway, forget about the past. We shall not go there. Otherwise, our relationship won't last a week."

Malfoy laughed. "For sure…"

Ron walked on me and Hermione as she was extracting everything out of me. Not everything of course, but the main point: Draco Malfoy is my boyfriend.

"Finally!" she said. "Seriously, this should have happened from about three years ago!"
"What are you talking about?" Ron demanded.

"Harry and Draco are now boyfriends."

Ron looked like Christmas has been cancelled, but slowly tried not to show it. "Er, congratulations, mate! I guess…"

"Thanks, Ron." I said.

"When are we going to meet up with your boyfriend?" asked Hermione.

"What?" Ron squealed.

"Hermione," I said. "It's Draco! You met him a thousand times before!"
"Yes, but not like that. We're your friends and he's your boyfriend now, so we should be in good matters with him."

"What?" Ron repeated.

"Don't worry, Ron," I said. "It won't happen. Hermione, let's stay as we are and avoid trouble. I don't want him to make me choose between him and my friends because obviously I'll choose you and he'll be heartbroken. And I'll be too…"

"If you think so…" said Hermione.

Ron looked so relieved and I think he gave me a thankful look.

"I am so tired. I am going to bed." I said.

"Won't you spend the night with Draco?" asked Hermione.

"Why?"

"Well, you did it before anyway. And now that you finally realized that you love each other_"

"WHAT? What love? Love who? No one said anything about 'love'!"

"Fine!" she said. "Whatever you call it. Now that you are boyfriends, won't you sleep with him?"

"What?" said Ron for the third time.

Hermione looked like she's fighting a laugh. "Oh, Harry, if you saw how your face looks like now… Well, I meant the literal meaning."

"Thank you, Hermione," I said, "I know what you meant alright, exactly like I know that you meant to say it in this way."

Hermione giggled. "You caught me!"

"I am going to bed!" I repeated and went to my dormitory.

I curled under the covers and hugged my pillow, thinking about Malfoy and what Hermione said. My thoughts were interrupted when Ron came into the dormitory and opened the curtains around my bed.

"You did it again!" I said, meaning his invasion of my privacy.

"And you did it again!" He said sounding a bit angry.

"Did what?"

"You went to Hermione before you came to me. Why do you tell her everything, and you don't tell me anything? I told you before that I am okay with you being gay! And I am also okay with having Malfoy as your boyfriend. So why do you assume that I shouldn't know anything about you?"

"What do you want, Ron?"

"I want you to make me feel like I am still your best friend. I feel like you are ashamed of talking about things like that with me, when we have already talked about things like that loads of times in the past."

"Okay, Ron. I promise you, next time anything new happens between me and Malfoy, you'll be the first to know."

"Please don't make me feel like I am invading your privacy. I just want the normal thing, as we usually did. You know… like how I told you about Hermione and Lavender… without any specific private descriptions."

I smiled. "Okay. No problem."

"Thanks. And good night."

"Good night…"

He closed the curtain, and I went to sleep cuddling my pillow, imagining Draco in its place.
