Harry Potter and The Frozen Heart

Harry’s mind was swimming with fighting thoughts as he walked towards Privet Drive. He kept thinking to his year at Hogwarts and everything that happened with Cho, and how everything ended.

(Harry Potter doesn’t fancy boys!!!) a voice yelled in his head.

--Too bad, because Zane Black does—another voice laughed.

A part of Harry didn’t care about who he fancied, but he knew things would get complicated when he got back to the wizarding world. If its views on sexual preference were anything like the muggle world, he was headed for trouble. Not to mention how his friends would react. Now he had one more thing to separate him from everyone else. None of it was fair, but then of coarse what was anymore? His life was taken out of his hands since he was a year old and now it seemed fate had added another twist to it.

As he climbed down the latter to his trunk, he just pushed all the thoughts away and decided to work on some spells and then get ready to meet Alex.

“Now is there any last business?” Albus asked he looked at the tale full of Order members.

“Yes, I want to discuss Harry” Molly declared. “We went to Privet Drive this morning, to try and talk to him.”

“What happened?” Dumbledore pressed.

“He ran off again yesterday on Sirius’s motorcycle and we went to talk to him to try and convince him to stay home until we come to get him for the rest of the summer.” Remus said.

“He has Sirius’s motorcycle?” Dumbledore asked.

“Yes, he must have got it the other day from Gringotts when he went to Diagon Alley, along with a Home Trunk he is using as a home while he stays at Privet Drive” Remus clarified.

Albus just seemed to ponder on this information as everyone watched him closely.

“He said he doesn’t trust you anymore and that unless he feels he has to, he won’t do anything you say” Mrs. Weasley declared as she eyes Dumbledore.

“He also said you betrayed him, Albus. What did he mean?” Arthur asked.

“The night Sirius died, I told him the truth that I have been keeping from him since his first year.”

“You don’t mean-“

“Yes, I told him about the prophecy” Albus declared, interrupting Remus.

“What does the prophecy say?” Remus pressed.

“Out of respect for Harry’s privacy I can’t tell you that, but I will ask him if I may tell you when he comes back to headquarters.”

“He was ready not to come back here but he finally agreed to come back two weeks before term starts” Molly said. “I’m very worried about him.”

“I am very worried about him as well” Dumbledore declared.

“So, what are you going to do?” Remus asked.

“As much as it scares me to say this, I don’t know. He has every reason to be angry with me, and I can only hope to regain his trust.”

Harry had spent the last hour and a half working on spells and was now showering to get ready to meet Alex. He had never been to a club before and he was excited at the thought of actually going to one, or excited about seeing Alex, he wasn’t sure which. Turning off the water, he grabbed for a towel and began to dry himself off. Walking past the bathtub he smiled as he saw Keeva sleeping at the bottom. Hedwig had flown off, most likely to hunt for food, and Seth was exploring his new terrarium. Harry made it with the new charms he learned, and made it look just like a Brazilian forest, complete with a miniature waterfall and a recycling spell so the water would always be clean. Along with that he added plants and soil and miniature trees.

Going into his closet, Harry looked for something to wear. Not knowing what would be appropriate Harry finally decided to wear a pair of black leather pants, and steel plated boots. He then put on a dark emerald green shirt with short sleeves that brought out his eyes very well. It was too hot outside to wear one of his trench coats, so Harry put on a black leather vest instead. When he finished getting dressed, he put on a choker with a pendant of a howling wolf on it. Just incase, he decided to drink an anti-alcohol potion in case he would be drinking later on. Then with a quick look in the mirror he saw he looked very good. With a quick splash of Old Spice, he then exited his trunk and left the house.

When he got to the park he saw Alex already there, wearing a pair of blood-red leather pants with black shoes. He was wearing a black long sleeve shirt made of thin silk, revealing his well formed chest underneath. Around his neck hung a white gold chain with a pendant of an upside-down cross with a viper wrapped around it.

“You look great” Alex declared as he looked at Harry.

“You too” Harry replied, while trying to suppress a blush.

Alex and Harry walked over to the other side of the park where Alex parked his car. Harry’s jaw dropped when he saw a 1966 black jaguar roadster parked in front of him.

“Well come one, w the the night is young” Alex said as he climbed in.

Harry climbed into the passenger seat and they took off with the top down. The wind whipped through their hair as they sped through Surrey. It felt good to watch Privet Drive fade away, and Harry enjoyed every moment of it. But, all too soon the ride ended, and Harry saw Mayhem for the first time. A huge building that looked to be still under construction stretched up at least ten stories high. The only HarrHarry new it was Mayhem, because of a huge sign in front that was actually on fire. Three large blow torch type of pipes were blowing fire at a steel frame which spelled out MAYHEM.

“Come on,” Alex said as he turned the engine off.

Harry followed him out of the car and over to the entrance. The moment he walked in, loud music burst into his ear, which Harry recognized as Rob Zombie singing ‘Living Dead Girl’. A velvet rope came into view as Alex and Harry descended some large stairs, along with a very intimidating looking man. He was huge, 6”6’ tall and quite possibly a bodybuilder. His head was cleanly shaved, leaving no hair, and had a small goatee which looked to be drawn on his face with a pencil. He wore black jeans and a black t-shirt with bold white letters spelling out ‘SECURITY’. His eyes, or rather his left eye was brown, while his right eye was completely white, with a trail of scar tissue stretching down his forehead and all the way down to his cheek.

As soon as he saw Alex he pulled the rope back, letting him and Harry pass into the club. When Harry walked down another flight of steps, right behind Alex, he immediately saw a huge mash pit of people, dancing and trashing about to the music, in a flurry of strobe lights. Almost everyone Harry could see was dressed in gothic clothing, along witttoottoos and piercing all over their bodies.

“Come on, let’s dance!” Alex yelled over the music.

He grabbed Harry’s wrist and dragged him out to the dance. The only time Harry had ever danced was at the Yule Ball. The difference this time was that he was actually having fun. It seemed that Alex was a good dancer, so Harry tried to imitate his movements to the wild music, which he did fairly well. Before he knew the song had changed to ‘Stupefy” by Disturbed, and were joined by two girls. One of them began to dance with Alex while the other quickly went over to Harry.

The one with Alex had purple hair and brown eyes. Her eyebrows were pierced as well as her lip. She was wearing a black mini skirt made of spandex as well as a black tank top. She was very pretty and had a very small waist. She had fair skin and very long legs, making her at least two or three inches taller than Alex.

The other one who was dancing with Harry had long blonde hair, tied back in an elegant twist with neon blue highlights. Her eyes were a pale blue, and had no piercings except for her ears, which were pierced all the way around her outer earlobes. She wore a tight black leather mini skirt and neon blue tank top with a design of roses and ivy. She was also wearing fishnet stockings and combat boots. Along her wrists were tattoos of jasmines and roses tied together in twists on vines.

“ITS SUDS TIME!!!” a voiced yelled out over the speakers, obviously the DJ.

The sprinkler system then let loose a shower of soap suds and water, making everyone cheer. A techno song started to blast over the speaker system and everyone quickly began to dance to the rhythm, thrashing about as the water continued to drench them all. Harry couldn’t remember the last time he had so much fun. It felt great just being himself, and it felt even better with each passing song. Suddenly, the water stopped and Alex pulled off his shirt, which a lot of people were beginning to do already, even the ladies.

“Want to get something to drink?” Alex yelled to Harry.

“Yeah!!!” Harry yelled back.

They got out of the pit walkwalked over to the large bar. Alex ordered two bes oes of beer, and took the frosted bottles in his hands and passed one to Harry.

“Let’s go outside for a sec, its hot as hell in here!” Alex declared as he gestured towards a back exit.

With all the people in the club it was becoming even hotter, and with all the dancing Harry felt very hot. He followed Alex out the back exit which lead to a back alley which was closed of from the rest of the street, a few people were there, a few were talking while the rest were snogging. They went over to the corner of the alley; once there Alex gave Harry the other beer. With a quick gulp Harry drank the cold liquid down, surprised that he actually enjoyed the taste.

“Having fun?” Alex asked as he took a drink from his own beer.

“A blast” Harry said as he took off his leather vest and shirt since they began to feel a bit heavy with all the water.

“Great, but let’s stay for another hour only, we both need our strength for tomorrow” Alex stated.

“That’s fine, I’m just glad I got to have some fun for once” Harry declared.

“So for tomorrow, do you want to try and learn some weapons?”

“That’d be great! What kind of weapons though?”

“How about whips and swords?” Alex asked.

“Sure” Harry said as he downed the last of the beer. “So what lesson, did you want me to learn tonight?”

“Well the first one I will tell you tomorrow when we meet at the park.”

“What about the other?” Harry asked.

“This” Alex said as he wrapped his arm around Harry’s waist.

Alex pulled Harry closer to his own body and pressed his lips to Harry’s. Harry was completely caught off guard. But, before he knew it he was returning the kiss. Harry opened his mouth to let Alex’s tongue inside of him. He pushed his own tongue inside of Alex’s mouth, deepening the kiss. It was very different from kissing Cho. With her it was so awkward, and clumsy, but with Alex, it was more . . . precise, passionate, and powerful.

The entire world seemed to fade away and all Harry could feel was Alex’s body pressed against his own, his smell, his touch, and his taste. It was so intoxicating; Harry almost forgot where he was. Finally, with gasp they broke apart, completely out of breath.

“You can stare at me in the shower all you like” Alex declared as he looked into Harry’s eyes.

Harry gave him a mischievous smile and began to kiss him again. After they snogged each other senseless for a few more minutes they went back into the club to dance. ‘With You’ by Linkin Park was playing over the sound system, and Harry danced with Alex in the mash pit, once again losing himself in the music and strobe lights of the dance floor. For the first time the hollow feeling that was inside of Harry since the night in Dumbledore’s office faded away, letting him feel alive. For an hour they danced before it was time for them to go. When they left they walked out hand in hand. Harry didn’t care who saw them or whether or not they found it acceptable. All that mattered was that for once, something in his life felt right, and he was going to enjoy it while he still had the chance.

“Where do you want me to drop you off?” Alex asked as they got in the car.

“Just take me back to the park, I can walk from there” Harry answered.

The wind whipped through Harry’s hair as the car sped along the road. The air was cool and Harry breathed in the air of the night. He was starting to get goose bumps over his skin and was about to put his shirt back on when felt how soaked it still was. Before he knew it they were back at the park. Alex parked the car where he had before and turned to look at Harry.

“So I guess this is good night then Zane.”

Harry smiled, and leaned over his seat. They kissed for a good five minutes before Harry broke away.

“Good night Alex.”

With that Alex drove off as Harry walked home. Once again Harry’s mind was filled con contradicting thoughts, but he pushed them all away. Right now nothing mattered except the few moments of happiness he had this night. Fate had robbed him of every chance he had to have a happy life, and if he had a chance to have a few happy moments before he thrust back into the war of the wizarding world, he was going to take it.

When Harry got home and climbed into his trunk, Seth was already asleep in his terrarium. Keeva and Hedwig were sharing a dead toad to eat so Harry left them to their meal. He quickly went into the potions lab to check on the animagus potion. It had set untouched for the time it had needed, just as the book said it should. Harry filled up a glass with the potion and then tested it to make sure it was safe. The machine said it was perfect which made Harry smile. He wondered what kind of animal he would transform into, and quickly downed the potion, trying not to gag at its horrible taste.

Suddenly, a great pain shot up into his chest and stomach. Harry fell on his knees, grabbing his sides as he felt something shredding apart his insides and something ripping apart the flesh on his back. The pain was quickly spreading over his entire body, as it quickly began to change. . .
