18. Secret Boyfriends (Marcus/Draco/Cormac)

Warnings: Language, Slash threesome.

Cormac knew he was in love the moment he met them, he knew that if his friends found out he would be shunned. He wanted to stay with them for as long as he could, but knew that dream was going to come to an end, knowing they would end it.

On this particular day he sat on the stand of a very empty Quidditch pitch, watching the Slytherin team fly on their brooms during practice. he watched the two boys he was madly in love with soar around as their robes billowed in the wind behind them. He suddenly felt the bleachers next to him sag down and quickly came out of his trance as he looked to his side and saw Marcus smiling at him.

"Why are you here, arn't you supposed to be up with your team?" Cormac asked.

"I'm the captain and I wanted to get a quick kiss from my boy." As Marcus was leaning into him he moved slightly away, seeing the disappointing look come across his lovers face.

"What the fuck Cormac? I thought we talked about this last night?" He said grabbing his wrist.

"I know, I just don't think I can do this, yet."

"Well when you decide you can come let us know. He's not going to like this you know that."

"I know." Cormac felt a ter slip down his cheek, knowing that when he talked to them it was going to be over. He couldn't come out to everyone just yet. He loved them both but he wasn't ready to hear what everyone would have to say.

Later that night he found himself sitting out by the lake, knowing they would find him. Shortly after he sat down the other boys came to sit next to him. No one talked for what seemed like hours and Cormac liked it. He loved sitting between these two knowing he was completely protected.

"I don't understand." Draco said.

"You should he doesn't want anyone to know he's with us. He's to ashamed to let people know he is dating two guys and to make it worse we are both Snakes." Cormac felt his heart sink, he wasn't ashamed of them, just ashamed of himself. He stood up, pacing front of the two, trying to figure out what to say.

"I'm not ashamed of either of you, I love you both." Cormac didn't know how it happened so fast but his back was against the tree with Marcus's wand in his face.

"You do not love us, so stop lying. If you did you would have not cared if I kissed you at the pitch today."

"I do love you I do" Cormac began to cry, feeling his heart break. He saw Draco's hand go up to Marcus's arm, slowly forcing it down.

"Then why don't you want people to know about us Cor?" Draco asked in a whisper.

"I'm afraid alright, I'm afraid of what my friends will say when they find out I'm gay. I don't care what they think about who I am with after that, but to loose them because I am gay will kill me,"

"What about loosing us when you don't tell people who you are with, won't that kill you?" Marcus yelled into his face.

"Yes it will, I was praying you would give me a little more time, please."

"NO." Marcus screamed as Draco said,

"Yes."

"What? You will give him more time, again. How long do we have to wait Draco?" Marcus asked.

"As long as he needs Marcus." Draco all but yelled.

"Why?"

"Because we love him, I don't want to loose him over something so stupid, and what about you. I thought you were going to die the last time you thought we were loosing him. I would rather have him in secret than never have him at all." Draco and Cormac watched Marcus as all his defenses broke and tears started to run down his face.

"Fine, I can wait. Now lets go back to my room and make up." The devious grin Cormac so loved was back on his lovers face as the three boys made their way down to the dungeons.
