It felt like potions had taken for ever to finish to both Harry and Draco, thankfully they had a free lesson until lunch. Harry was so glad about that he really needed time to talk to Ron, he knew Ron was still angry as through the whole of potions Ron was constantly flashing Harry filthy looks. Finally the lesson was over and both trio's headed for the door the closer both trio's got to the door the more angry Ron got. It wasn't long until Ron was face to face against Draco.
"What do you want Weasley" snarled Draco.
Ron pushed his forehead against Draco's so that their nose's were pushed together. "I want you to stay the fuck away from Harry."
"FIFTEEN POINTS FROM GRYFFINDOR FOR MR WEASLEYS FOUL LANGUAGE" Slughorn shouted over the commotion. "I did expect better from you Mr Weasley" Slughorn sighed and carried on in a much quieter tone.
"Ron, come on this isn't fair on Harry" Hermonie piped in. At this point everyone swung around to see that Harry had sat back down next to the cauldron with his face in his hands. Draco rushed over to him knocking Pansy over as he fled past. Ron sniggered at the sight of Pansy on the floor her long dark hair sticking up in all directions, robes covered in a lumpy green potion that had tipped over next to her. Pansy got up swiftly and flew out the room slamming the door behind her.
"Draco I'll see you in the common room, I'm going to see if Pansy is okay" Blaise shouted as he ran after her. Draco didn't even realise that he pushed Pansy over let alone realising that Blaise had left with her, he was to busy trying to get Harry to tell him what the matter was. Harry sat motionless with his head still placed in his hands.
"Harry talk to me, please. I love you." Draco was on his knees next to Harry, his arms were gripped tightly on Harry's forearm.
Slowly Harry lifted his head from his hands, slowly he turnt his head to face his distressed boyfriend, he saw their was no sparkle left in his eyes. His usual Malfoy mannerisms were not present. Harry placed his hands on either side of Draco's face and tilted his head up until their eyes were in line with each other.
"I love you to." As each word left his tongue his lips grew in to a bigger smile as did Draco's.
Hermonie looked over at Ron is face was burning red, she slip her hand into his and dragged him out of the potions room.
Harry looked up when the door shut, "no need to skip lunch, we can talk now if you want?"
"Seriously Potter you do need to address your language if your going to be in a commit relationship with me" Draco winked at Harry.
Harry pressed his forehead on Draco's "Oh I am so very sorry Mr Malfoy is there anything else you wish for me to do? Oh wait I don't give a shit" he stuck his tongue out the side his mouth, Draco's mouth moved forward to suck the tongue in his but Harry moved his head back.
"Your going to have to do better than that gorgeous" Harry winked at his lover, he loved annoying him.
"Oh shut it golden boy, you'll come to me in good time" he huffed, "so what are we going to do about telling everyone Pot-"
"Harry" Harry piped in.
"-Harry" Draco continued.
"I think we should just shock them all really, let's just walk in the great hall at lunch holding hands then part with a kiss" Draco sniggered at his own words, he disgusted himself sometimes how could he embarrassed himself his a Malfoy. Draco shook his head, 'how can I think these things, I love Harry. I do. But I'm still a Malfoy' his thoughts were all blurred recently. He knew he loved Harry he always had but he couldn't help the way he acted. His prejudice against everything 'un-malfoyish ' was the only hand-me-down that Draco ever received and he hated it.
"I know what your thinking Draco, you screw your forehead up when you trying to figure out what path to choose, Malfoy route or Draco. I know which one I'd pick if I was you gorgeous"
"Harry this was my idea, I wanted to come out to everyone but now its the time I can't do it, Harry I can't, I want to but" Draco was sliding into Professor Slughorns chair sobbing.
Harry rushed over to his sobbing boyfriend and pulled his face up to his own. Harry carefully kissed each and every tear that fell from Draco's metallic grey eyes.
"Do what you feel comfortable doing Drake everything will get better we just have to give it time" Harry wrapped his arms around Draco's waist and pulled him to stand next to the crackling fire with their arms still entwined around each others waist.
Draco looked into Harry's eyes, he could see that he loved him and he could feel he loved him he knew that with Harry he would be safe, safer than he had ever been, he was more worried about peoples opinion, and the media who followed Harry everywhere. People opinions are always the worst because Draco knew they would be based on some sort of fact they always are and he hated that because the bitter truth is not what he wanted.
He wanted Harry.
Just Harry.
Him and Harry.
Harry.
"What are you boys still doing in here?" Professor Slughorn exclaimed, "and look at the state of this room!" His eyes were shifting for Harry to Draco to the cauldron then back again.
"Sorry sir, tergeo " Harry replied "We were just leaving sir, sorry to use your room we didn't realise how much time had gone, sorry"
"Not long now dear boy ten minutes till the start of lunch I just came in here to drop something off, now come along you'll be late." Slughorn commented.
Both boys grabbed their things took one last glance at Professor Slughorn who was now rummaging through a pile of worms and left the room hastily. Draco grabbed Harry by the neck and pulled the side of his head close to his mouth.
"I'll do it" he whispered in his ear and ran off into the dungeons.
"Are you ready for this?" Harry squeezed Draco's hand.
"I'm ready" Draco leaned in a kissed Harry lightly on the lips.
The boys gripped each others hand tightly gave each other what felt like their last glance and pushed open the giant, heavy wooden doors. The voices of everyone inside the great hall escaped as the door opened. Suddenly all the voices in the call stopped, some in mid sentence whilst others whispered into oblivion. Everyone turned to stare at the entry to the great hall. Some where rubbing their eyes in shock while others were punching the people next to them in their arm. Where as Ron's face went pale even he didn't expect this to happen, then he dropped his chicken leg onto his plate splating his mash potato up at Seamus. Seamus didn't even bother to wipe the mashed potato off of his face his eyes were fixated on the two boys. Everyone's was.
"Harry everyone's looking at us" Draco's voice was so quiet Harry barely heard him.
"Good" Harry replied in an equally quiet voice. He grabbed the back of Draco's neck and pulled him in close their lip's locked in each others passionate kiss. Finally when both boys broke free Harry winked at Draco and sat down at the Gryffindor table and Draco did the same only seating himself at the Slytherin table. The great hall stayed in complete silence, some were exchanging glancing whilst other just sat and picked at their food. Why on earth was the golden boy the saviour of the wizarding world kissing a known death eater, why?
After wiping the mash potato off his face with his robes Seamus was the one who spoke first.
"Harry, mate, seriously, a death eater are you totally off your head!" His voice echoed through the hall, everyone's head turned to watch Seamus. "Harry this really isn't like you, oh my, no, Harry he didn't, he didn't slip you a love potion did he?" Seamus's voice got progressively louder as he ended his sentence. "Professor Slughorn, can you come here please quick it's urgent" he shouted towards the teachers table.
Several students stood up as all the teachers from the table rushed over to where Seamus and Harry was. All the students were trying to peer over the students to see what was happening.
"Sir I think Draco slipped Harry a love potion he wouldn't do this normally please sir check him to make sure his okay" Seamus pleaded.
"I'm fine you idiot, fucking wonderful if you must know. Then again none of you even ask how I feel, none of you even asked how I feel towards Draco. SO SHUT THE FUCK UP AND SIT THE FUCK DOWN!" Harry's face was scrunched up and beads of sweat were dripping off the top of his brow. "DO NOT FUCKING JUDGE HIM ON WHAT HE'S DONE JUDGE HIM ON WHO HE IS AND WHAT HE MEANS TO ME!"
Ron tugged on the sleeve of Harry's arm. "Sit down mate your making a show of yourself"
"AND DON'T YOU START YOU GINGER PRICK. YOUR SUPPOSED TO BE MY BEST FRIEND AND THIS IS HOW YOU TREAT ME. MAYBE I WANT TO MAKE A SHOW MAYBE I WANT ALL OF YOU TO KNOW HOW I FEEL TOWARDS DRACO. AND MAYBE JUST FUCKING MAYBE I DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHAT ANYONE THINKS!" Once Harry had calmed down he stood up and walked out the great hall everyone turnt to look disgustingly at Draco. He looked back at them equally as disgusted. The he stood up. "Have some respect for Harry's feelings. I understand I am not everyone's first choice for him, but he saved you all from death so cut him some slack and let him make his own choice in life" Draco glared at the Gryffindor table.
"You have let me down Gryffindor's, you'll always be my favourite after everything that went on but this time you have let me down this time. I am appalled you questioned Harry's judgement in people, we all have seem a remarkable change in young Mr Malfoy but maybe you are all blinded by hatred that you can not see this." Professor McGonagal then directed her voice to just Ron and Hermonie. " Think carefully about your friends and choices that you have made in your life and think about Harry's feelings now. Torn between the first ever friends he had who he died for or the boy he madly loves."
"-but profes-" Ron interrupted
"No Mr Weasley you'd be a fool to not see how much Harry loves Draco a fool" Professor McGonagal finished.
"Exactly my point professor, work of a love potion!" Ron shot Draco a filthy look.
"No Mr Weasley this is work of love. The magic within our bodies creates this, not the magic from our lungs." Professor McGonagal then sighed. " I have other things which need to be done so come on all of you back to your lessons. Other than you, Mr Malfoy come with me."
Draco gracefully left the Slytherin table and tried steering away from as many people as he could, he wasn't sure how many curses he was going to get shot at him when all the professors weren't watching.
"Mr Malfoy, I hope that you understand that this will not be easy. Everyone thinks that it will be harder on Harry but I promise you Mr Malfoy"
"You can call me Draco"
"Very well Draco I promise you that you will be getting abuse off of everyone. Every house will show you their opinion on your relationship as will everyone else in the wizarding world. It will take a while for everyone to accept you because of both your back grounds but I wish you the very best and you can always talk to me when you need to." Professor McGonagal finished her speech quickly and looked over at Draco.
"Thank you Professor I am very grateful." Draco smiled at Professor McGonagal and she looked shocked at his response to her speech.
"I can really see that you have changed, and I wish you the best." Professor McGonagal spoke as she patted Draco firmly on his shoulder.
"Thank you again Professor, I really need to go and find Harry I would just like to see if he is okay."
"Go head Draco, I wish to speak with you later after dinner please come swiftly to my office. It is important." Her voice changed into a more serious tone.
Draco nodded then walked away to find Harry. As Draco was walking through the the entrance hall he heard the portrait of Circe "How dare you, you filthy death eater, how dare you. You hurt that golden boy and you will be sorry!"
Draco shrugged and walked away, he arrived at the portrait of the fat lady.
"Can I come in please? I would really like to speak to Harry."
" I am sorry Mr Malfoy I can not let you in without the pass word." The fat lady snarled.
"Whistletea" Draco smirked.
"Do come in"
Draco walked up to Harry's dormitory. He knocked and walked in, he looked around the room to find Harry but no one was there. He signed and jumped onto Harry's bed. As he layed down he felt something something hard under his back, he stood up fluffed the quilt. Something loud fell on the floor. He rushed over to the other side of the bed about found Harry frozen on the floor with his invisibility cloak underneath him. Draco performed the counter spell to petrificus totalus and Harry's body came back to life. He shot up and Draco saw Harry's nose pouring with blood. Draco's face went paler than normal. He remembered in his sixth when he did this to Harry, he never did want to do that to him but it was the only way he thought he could keep him safe. He knew Harry's aunt and uncles house had a protective charm over it so the death eaters couldn't get in there so he wanted him to stay there. Draco pushed these thoughts out of his head and pushed his lips upon Harry's.
"Oi ferret your getting my blood on you." Harry spoke through both sets of pressed lips.
"I honestly don't care, scar head." Draco smirked.
"So glad it was you who found me, I've been dying for a kiss of lie - literally." Harry laughed pulling back from Draco's kiss.
"That really isn't funny. What happened to you though who done this?" Draco's voice went stern and Harry stopped laughing.
"Pansy, but its fine don't worry about it, I did sort of provoke her." His voice changed into a whisper as he ended his sentence.
"What why? What was said. I'm going to kill her!" Draco screamed.
"You are not going to do anything Draco. This is mine and her fight and you do not need to get involved!" Harry glared at Draco.
"But Harry, you are mine. And I don't want anything of mine broken. Nothing. Okay!" Draco peaked his boy on the forehead and left the room before Harry had chance to argue back.
"I love you." Draco whispered as he turnt his back to the gryffindor common room and sped off towards the dungeons.
Yes I left a cliff hanger, yes I am sorry. No I am not that sorry to not do it again. Ha ha ha bet you love me don't you!;)
