Chapter 2 - Relationship
I hadn't seen Harry in hours and I missed him, crazy how dating for a year now has made us both so co-dependent. We had agreed that we would meet before lunch in one of the abandoned classrooms. It wouldn't give us long but it's better than nothing.
It can be really hard to shake our friends sometimes, well mostly Harry, his friends hate leaving his side and it pisses me off! They also hate my guts and call me names so I retaliate and Harry gets mad at me for it. It nearly broke our relationship at the start.
Anyway, Harry's friends were being super clingy to the point that he couldn't even send me a letter and I only found out he couldn’t get away after sitting in the agreed classroom for 30 minutes waiting. On my walk back I saw Harry and his friends enter the great hall laughing and smiling and that got me angry. Thinking he would rather spend time with his friends than me, even if I knew that wasn’t the case.
So, when Harry finished he lunch and got up to leave the hall and his friends stayed behind I got up and walked out of the hall. The minute the doors were closed I started running until I realised I had no clue were he went, class wasn't for ages. While I was distracted my arm got yanked into a side corridor, I whipped my wand out and rounded on the person who grabbed me.
"Wow, Malfoy, it's just me," a familiar voice said sounding threatened and giddy with my wand on his throat.
"Harry?" I questioned even though I new it was him. I must have sounded slightly mad as he flinch, I only just caught him and felt horrible.
"Yeah, it’s me Draco," I felt his hand on my face and I lowered my wand, "I'm sorry I missed our meet up, my friends wouldn't leave me alone, a miracle they didn’t follow me out here," he said as he pulled me in for a kiss.
Oh Merlin I missed him, even if I had awoken with him in my bed this morning. I kissed him back, it was sweet little pecks at first, when I attempted to deepen it, he deepened it even further. Pushing me against the wall in the small corridor, this wasn’t a private place so we didn’t have much time, and couldn’t do much.
Just after I moaned into Harry's mouth someone stuck their head into our corridor. Merlin I was embarrassed.
"Oh my!!" We heard a voice, as I whipped my head around I got the shock horror of a second year Slytherin staring at us.
Umm.. well this is just shit! Why did it have to be a baby Slytherin for fucks sake. It couldn't have been any other house.
"Get out of here," I shooed the Slytherin. But he looked frozen in place so I tried again, "Get out of here you brat, can't you tell you interrupted something private," I said through grit teeth.
Well that got him to move, very quickly I might add. Slytherin trauma is no joke and is highly abused by teachers and some students. I turned back around to see a shocked Harry.
"Hey babe, he won't tell anyone our secret will stay safe," I said with my hands on his face.
"You know it won't stay a secret forever, right Draco?” he said with an unseen pain.
"Well yes, but I would have hoped for longer, it is fun sneaking around, having this one thing to ourselves," I said my hands squeezing around his waist as I leaned back in to kiss him. He let me but only briefly before he pulled back.
He coughed and rubbed his hand through his hair, "Sorry, but I'm late and I have to go," he then just slipped from my grip and ran.
"Harry!" I yelled after him but he didn't turn around. That the fuck just happened? We were happy less than two minutes ago.
'Forget it Malfoy, he doesn't even truly like you, never would he want to be associated with you on a public level,' came the dark voice of my father in my head. I knew it wasn't true but it still pained me to hear.
I had no clue what to do or what I said or did that was wrong. It hurt when I Harry didn’t look it me during dinner, and when he didn’t come to my bed that night. I was worried and hurt, with no idea what to do and no one to talk too.
The next morning I woke up alone and cold, I still had no clue what I fucked up. I thought about writing to my mother, but admitting I was gay and dating Harry Potter, well I am not ready for that.
I wrote him note after note on our Parchment that morning asking if he was okay and if we could talk. He never replied to me and it hurt so bad. Was this because his friends were hovering or because he didn’t want to talk to me. On my way down to the dungeon I saw Harry exiting a classroom, with his friends no were in sight I took this opportunity to talk to him.
"Harry!" I yelled out jogging over, when he saw me he turned around head hung low, I quickly reach him, "Babe" I tried, grabbing his wrist.
"Let go of me Malfoy," He said in such a saddened tone it hurt. Oh shit.
"Hey, what's going on babe," I tried “Talk to me, whatever I said or did I am sorry,” I pulled him in for a hug , just when I heard his friends coming out the door just behind us.
"I said get off me Malfoy," He yelled at me and pushed me off him. Fuck! What do iI do now?
"What do you want Malfoy," I heard Weasley say from behind me. When I turned around I had two wands pulled on me, I had never felt so threatened at school. I pulled my own wand out my sleeve, pointing it right at Granger, only she could do actual damage.
"Weasley, Granger, I just need to talk to Potter alone, " I said and turned around to get Harry to back me up but I saw him slowly backing away, Merlin I questioned why I loved this man.
"He obviously doesn't want to talk to you, so back of Malfoy," Granger spat at me. I looked at Harry with a pleading look.
"No, sorry I won't allow it," Granger barked back at me.
"Fine then, but Potter we really need to talk," I said and patted me pocket as a signal for our parchment, saw Harry nod slightly so I turned to leave.
"Ah good, leave our friend alone you good for nothing Slytherin," I heard Weasley yell out do I would hear. Oh hell no, I am not letting him get away with that, so stormed back over, with my wand raised at him.
"What did you say Weasley," I said spitting in his face, Merlin he looked so scared and that got me going, "Go on, say it again it's not like you're a waste of space Gryffindor is it," and that’s when Harry pulled his wand on me too.
"Don't talk to my friends that way Dr... Malfoy," Harry said through his teeth.
Seconds later Professors Snape and professor McGonagall rounded the corridor from opposite ends and there was no hiding what mess we had gotten ourselves into.
"Mr Malfoy, Mr Weasley, Mr Potter and Miss Granger, what on earth is going on here," McGonagall yelled running down the hall.
"Nothing professor, “Harry said stepping back and dropping his wand, his friends following in suit.
"We don't threaten with wands in school, you four should know this already," Came Snape's cold voice. This was when I realised my wand was till drawn so I lowered it.
“Detention for all of you tomorrow during you lunch period, in my classroom," Granger tried to argue with both professors to no avail.
"10 points from Slytherin and 30 points from Gryffindor," Came McGonagall's voice, "see to it that you three don't lose anymore of Gryffindor’s points," And with that I was pulled way by Snape leaving the Golden trio with professor McGonagall.
That night I got a letter from Harry on our parchment.
*Draco you said we need to talk, I'm free now meet me in the Astronomy tower*
*Thank you Harry! Be there in 10*
When I tell you I ran the whole way there I am not kidding. I hope he talks to me, I can't imagine him breaking up with me, 'Of course he's going to break up with you, your a good for nothing Slytherin after all and he is the chosen one' my stupid brain said. Before I had a chance to back out and leave I ran straight into the back of my boyfriend.
