Thank you for patiently waiting for this update! Normally it won't take me this long. I started a Tumblr under PrinceOfluff so check it out if you like Facebook as well as Prince Ofluff : )
He was not pacing. Pacing indicated doubt. Insecurity. He was neither of those things. He had done as Harry had asked of him. Started forming a true relationship, introduced him to his clan, he had even defended him against Elisa. So now…why was the moon high in the sky and Harry had yet to come?
Goliath turned sharply when he heard the approach of human footsteps. He almost thought it was Harry except that Harry rarely made a sound when he walked. He turned and was surprised to see another human standing in front of him. He narrowed his eyes; it was the same human who had his arm around Harry as they walked off towards Harry's apartment.
Draco merely raised a brow as he looked at Goliath. He always knew that Harry enjoyed larger men. He himself had grown much since they were children. His broad shoulders always looked best in dress clothes, much like the suit he had chosen to wear tonight on this pointless mission. Still he had promised himself when he had met Harry's lover he would give him a piece of his mind. No Malfoy backed down from a promise to himself. No matter how big the Gargoyle standing in front of them was. "Is a gargoyle named Hudson here? I have a delivery from Harry for him."
Now Goliath was willing to admit he was irritated. "Hudson is inside watching his program. I could bring him the gift…Where is Harry tonight?"
The smirk on Draco's lips got bigger. Well at least the brute had enough sense to be jealous. Not that there was anything to be jealous over. Harry didn't have the emotional intelligence to let go once he got attached. He might leave physically, but he knew that Harry wasn't going to move on in his heart. He shook his head "He's gone, I'll be joining him but he wanted to keep a promise to the gentleman. Thank you for giving these to him I'm running a bit short on time myself."
He was going to simply turn and walk away but he paused and looked over his shoulder "You must understand…I've known Harry since we were children, he's lost a lot of people that he's loved, he's been treated like shite more times than I can count. But I doubt all of that hurt him as much as you do. I'm glad I talked him into getting on that train and away from you before he got even more broken up because of your inabilities." And then he apparated away…not because he was afraid of getting attacked by an enraged gargoyle or anything . It was just the fastest means of transportation…
Harry watched the passing country side with disinterest. He still wasn't sure he had done the right thing. But in this situation was there a right path? If he stayed…he would just hurt and be hurt. If he went…well it would hurt, but maybe he would be able to forget about it in time.
North Dakota that was where the first available train was heading and so that was where he was going. He wasn't exactly sure what he was going to do once he was there. But he had never really been one for thinking ahead now had he? The seat next to him shifted and he watched as Draco effortlessly appeared. Well almost effortlessly…something about him looked, ruffled.
He smiled and poured himself some tea for the both of them "Did Hudson get his present? I didn't feel right leaving without letting him have it…"
Draco took a sip from his cup and made a face at what American's considered tea before muttering something like "I let him have it alright…" Harry cast him a confused glance but Draco shook his head and Harry let the subject drop.
Seated near them on the train two brothers were watching them closely.
"He just appeared…"
"I know Sam I saw it too…how did no one else notice?"
"Most people are asleep Dean…Is this what she meant by we had to take the train?"
"I don't know, you expect me to understand her?"
"Well…they don't appear dangerous…the blond looks defensive and the brunette is almost…sad…"
"Don't go feeling sorry for them Sam, let's just keep watch and we'll talk to them when they move to get off."
Sam and Dean Winchester nodded as they came to a mutual decision. As much as Dean loathed to be without his beloved car perhaps the hint to take the train had been a good one. There was definitely something…else… about the two English sitting just ahead of them.
Harry felt a pulsation go through him and knew that his time was up. He set his own tea cup down with a clatter as the shakes started. He should thank Goliath, the extra romp they had had given him enough time to get away before the need rose again. Now however he had trapped himself on a train and would soon be desperate for relief. He would have to find someone now while he could still think clearly.
Draco seemed to realize what the widening of Harry's eyes symbolized "Now Potter? Are you bloody kidding me?" Still he looked around anxiously realizing that Harry had little choice in the matter.
There were two men looking at them. Draco thought that looked promising. They seemed interested and given the state Harry was in he might actually need both of them. He motioned to them and Harry was in action at once. As Draco watched him go he wished he could be the one to ease Harry's need. He knew that Harry always felt dirty and used after he had one of these fits with random strangers. But Draco's creature had awakened and was now looking for its mate. Harry wasn't that mate so there was nothing he could do to help ease this pain.
The two men seemed surprised, even guarded when Harry approached them. They seemed close and Harry was hoping that at least one of them would be interested in him. Both would be better because then he could last longer without having another attack of sorts. His eyes darkened as he looked over their muscles and he heard a distant thought mourn the fact they weren't nearly as strong as Goliath. He ruthlessly pushed that thought aside before he smiled and introduced himself.
Sam and Dean had thought they were in a bit of trouble when one of the two they had been watching got up and approached them. They were ready for a fight though on a crowded train that would be difficult. Instead the one that came to them introduced himself as Harry Potter and then proceeded to…flirt with them. Heavily. Well that was unexpected.
Sam found himself drawn to this stranger. He didn't sense any evil from this person…something a little unnatural maybe but no outright evil. He cast a glance to Dean and saw that his brother needed more convincing. His body was still tense for a fight and when Harry asked to join them he could see the defensiveness in Dean's eyes even when he answered yes for them.
They were surprised however when instead of taking the seat across from them Harry nestled himself in between them and proceeded to whisper some of the most wicked things in their ears that Sam had ever heard. Some part of him knew that something was up. But he couldn't seem to think straight as Harry's soft voice painted lurid pictures of what they could do in the john together. A heated glance towards Dean showed that even his hard ass brother was wavering. Something was definitely wrong…but he couldn't bring himself to care as they stood up and headed towards the back.
Magic was a wonderful thing that Harry was infinitely grateful for. He had used it to cast an allure to make this easier. He didn't have the time to actually charm them, but the allure wouldn't work unless they had some interest in him. He might be many things but a rapist he was not.
Draco watched them go and knew that this was exactly what Harry had wanted to avoid. For the first time he felt a little smidgen of guilt as he wondered if encouraging Harry away from Goliath was really the best idea. But then he remembered the sadness in Harry's eyes and it helped steel him a bit. He knew that people would always hurt other people, even the ones they loved. But he had promised himself the night of the final battle when they were standing amongst the bodies of the dead; friends, family, colleges and enemies all mixed up that all the pain and sacrifice would be worth it. For both of them.
Back in the clock tower Goliath was shunning company for the evening. Even Hudson was not permitted to intrude as he sat and stared at the city lights. As if they would give him the answer as to why Harry would have left. Hadn't he done enough? Hadn't he proven that he was committed? The betrayal stung his heart but he could not find it in himself to be angry with Harry. Only confused. He sighed and lowered his head as he closed his eyes. What was the right choice? Could he even follow Harry if he wanted to? He didn't even know where to start….
He growled lowly when he sensed he was no longer alone and looked to find one of the very last people he wanted to see right now standing before him. Puck smirked down at him as the trickster floated and stared at him with false confusion "How strange…I know of many methods of searching for loved ones but this must be the most lackluster attempts I have ever witnessed…Or do you not intend to follow him at all?"
Goliath felt his eyes bleed to white as he swiped lazily at the floating annoyance. His attack missed but due to lack of interest. He turned away and took a deep breath to calm himself. Getting in a fight with Puck was not wise. "I need peace at the moment before I can decide what I must do."
In the silence that followed he wondered if for once Puck had taken mercy on him and left. But when he cast a cautious glance behind him instead he was met with the stern face of Owen looking back at him "Then perhaps there is no use in thinking about it at all. Your lack of reaction means that it is perhaps for the best that Harry has left the city. I was entertaining the thought of assisting you however now I am less inclined."
Growling Goliath turned and caught Owen up by his suit before he even realized what he was doing "You know where Harry had gone?"
The cool eyed blond stared passively back at him for a moment before answering "It was partly due to my own selfish interest….but I suppose I could be persuaded to share the information…Though I will warn you that this comes at a price…"
Goliath narrowed his eyes as he felt a certainty go through him that he had never had before "Done."
Harry gasped as he was pressed firmly against a wall of solid chest and moaned as he felt himself being filled for the second time. Sam had been the first to fall fully under his allure but after watching them Dean had been eager for his own chance as well. Harry closed his eyes as he felt pleasure and pain mix into one. Sam was a very careful and gentle lover while Dean was much rougher and Harry savored them both.
He felt tears working in the corner of his eye as his mind stubbornly returned to thoughts of Goliath. What was he doing now? He had probably given up on Harry now that he had left even after the Gargoyle had done all he had asked. Even if he did wish to follow Harry how could he? And why would he want him knowing that Harry would be giving himself to strangers, two in fact this time around. Dean must have sensed his wandering thoughts because a slap on the rear brought him crashing back to reality and he cried his release at the same time a Gargoyle's roar was heard echoing across the thundering skies of New York City.
Hope you enjoyed the update!
