Tag! You're it! Part 2!
Author(s) notes: I promised every week or two and it\'s two weeks. I tried to post last Sunday but I forgot to put in the chapter title and I didn\'t realise that it hadn\'t posted before I logged off. While this is a much larger post than last time, this is all that would have been posted last week anyway. We each have another paragraph written but we\'ve been fighting for the past 10 days about where the story should go. I believe that a certain event should not have happened in Cannon for our fic, while she does. Maybe I\'ll let you know what that event is... Later... So it might be a bit till there is another post, but with school getting back in session I think that we\'ll be able to get something out to all of you. Till my next post... That\'s All!
Viva La Slashy!!!!!

**********Draco\'s POV**********
Have you ever wondered what the most painful hex (That is taught at Hogwarts...) is? Well for someone with very bad knees (I.E. me), it\'s the one Weasley just hit me with. The Knee-Reversing Hex. Ow. It causes the recipients of the hex, to have their knee-caps go in the opposite (I.E. wrong) direction. It is therefore physically imposable for the recipient of the hex to be able to stand. Hence the graceless heap I make on the floor.
\"I thought I told you to come alone, Potter.\" I said through gritted teeth, not out of anger, but excruciating pain I was feeling through my entire body. I was facing the door now, I saw the face of my salvation flanked on the right by Weasley and by the newly revealed Granger on the left. Potter just can\'t listen, can he.
**********Harry\'s POV**********
When the hex hit, Malfoy crumpled to the ground with a sharp wince. He raised his face enough to glare at me and remind me of his instructions. That arrogant little ferret had actually expected me to obey him. Please, like I would come to a duel without backup. That would be just asking for trouble. What would stop Crabbe GoylGoyle from holding me down as Malfoy cursed me into oblivion? I quickly looked around the room once more. Where were Crabbe and Goyle? Dear Merlin, I thought, he came alone!
I cautiously approached my fallen enemy and asked, “What is this, Malfoy?”
He shifted his glare to Ron and the uncovered Hermione and mumbled some obscenities. Before he deigned to give a intelligible answer Hermione distracted me by making a noise of questioning surprise. I turned my back to Malfoy to see her holding a bottle of wine.
Ron scowled at Malfoy and asked, “So, who did you steal the room from?” He didn’t wait for a reply before addressing the room in general. “It just figures that after some couple goes to all the trouble of setting up a room, Malfoy evicts them. What did you do Malfoy, threaten to rat them out unless they left?” He turned to me and continued, “I bet it was Ernie and Hannah. Remember, they were thinking about setting something up? I can’t believe they would let him” heked ked a thumb towards Malfoy “take over.”
Ron, Hermione and I all turned to glare at the malicious Slytherin.
**********Draco\'s POV**********
\"They are enjoying their time, alone, together, in the room that they set up near the Charms corridor. I should know. I gave them a bottle of wine to keep them quiet about the fact I was planning something. They caught me as I was heading up here earlier.\" Damn it! Can\'t ONE of them be GRYFFINDOR enough to reverse the hex. I\'ll be lucky if I ever walk again after this.
After a few moments of them being in complete shock or thinking on what I said (It doesn\'t really matter. Either way I was still on the floor in pain while they just stood there with their thumbs up their asses), I decided that I\'d have to jog their brains as to what they were supposed to do now that they ruined my plans for the evening. \"Lovely to know Weasley that you\'ll hex an unarmed man when his back is turned. Your mother would be right proud of you I wager. If you don\'t mind... My knees are bad enough as is, and this isn\'t making them any better. One of you...\"
**********Harry\'s POV**********
Malfoy might as well have waved a red cape at a bull. In all his years at Hogwarts, he should have learned NEVER to mention Ron’s mum in an insult.
It took the combine effort of Hermione and myself to keep Ron from leaping at Malfoy in a fiery rage. As soon as I was able, I turned back to ver very pale pile of Slytherin that was heaped on the floor. I pointed my wand at him, reversed the spell, then bound him in ropes.
“You said you were ‘planning something.’” I kept my wand unshakingly pointed at his chest. “Explain.”
**********Draco\'s POV**********
I mentally kicked myself for my mistake that could have caused permanent damage to my person. Never-Mention-Weasley’s-Mother. I hissed in pain as the spell was reversed; but before I had a chance to flex my legs, Potter had me in a full body bind.
“Yes, I did say I was ‘planning something.’ However, I asked YOU to come here. Not all three of you. I’d be more than happy to explain myself... When they’re gone.” I replied to his prompt. Merlin, let them leave.
**********Harry\'s POV**********
My internal alarm system starting flashing and spouting phrases like, “Danger, danger, Will Robinson!” Why was Malfoy so intent on getting me alone? He was planning something and whatever it was he was confident enough in it that he didn’t feel need to deny it. The whole situation was fishier than a tuna factory.
Despite the warning sirens in my head, I was curious. Very curious. What the hell, I thought with a mental shrug. I had him bound and unarmed, what harm could he cause me?
“Alright, Malfoy.” Ron and Hermione gave identical sounds of disbelief. “But I have conditions.” I paused for dramatic effect. “You are going to stay tied up and on the floor. I will hold your wand. You will answer all of my questions. If you don’t, I’ll leave you here and you can wait for Mrs. Norris to find you. What do you say to that, Malfoy?”
**********Draco\'s POV**********
\"Guess I don\'t really have a choice, now do I?\" This is not going to work real well. How in the hell am I supposed to seduce him if I\'m tied up on the floor? Unless he\'s into bondage or something like that... I\'m screwed. I guess I can try to convince him to untie me, but only after the other two are gone.
This entire evening is completely blown to hell. Maybe I should ask him to come back another time... But this might be my only chance. Oh, bugger it! I\'ve chosen my path, I\'m gonna walk it. My path just happens to be all up-hill, in the snow, through the Forbidden Forest, during the vampire\'s mating season. Well I suppose it\'s time to make a spectacular ass out of my self and let Potter beat the out out of me.
**********Harry\'s POV**********
Ron and Hermione didn’t like leaving me with Malfoy, but after much glaring and a few threats, they left. They refused to go any farther than a corridor away, but at least they did leave. Now I was alone with the evil little ferret and completely determined to get some answers.
“What do you mean by all this, Malfoy? You corner me in the corridor, tell me to meet you and expect me to come alone. What the hell made you think I’d do anything you tell me to? And what the fuck is this?” I picked up the wine bottle Hermione had discarded. “Thinking of getting me so drunk I pass out, then shipping me to Tahiti? Oh wait, let me guess, it’s poisoned, right?” I gave an exasperated sigh at the expression on his face. “Why did you ask me here?”
**********Draco\'s POV**********
\"First of all, I didn\'t corner you. Secondly, I asked if you would meet me, and that you were to come alone.t ist is a bottle of wine. No, getting you drunk, or poisoning you, was not part of my plan. And before you ask what the plan is, or rather was... Let me just say that my plan will be a little hard to convey to you tied up on the floor. I have no desire to hurt you. And my knees are hurting like a bitch. Is there any way I can convince you to untie me anytime soon?\" It was a long shot, but I like to root for the underdog. Especially when I AM the underdog...
**********Harry\'s PO***********
Well, he sounded like he was sincere. And if the tight undercurrent to his voice was any indicator, he wasn’t lying about the pain either. But then, this was Malfoy. He could be acting. Best not to take any chances just yet.
“I’ll untie you when you answer my question. And I don’t give a damn how hard it is to convey, you’re going to do it. Now, why did you ask me to come here?”
**********Draco\'s POV**********
SHIT! This could get real bad, real quick. Mrs. Norris just might be the one who finds me. My body that is. He\'s gonna kill me. \"To tell you where I stand on a variety of issues...\" Please, please, please! Let that be enough.
**********Harry\'s POV**********
That bastard was actually trying to evade the question! I have him tied in ropes and he tries to skirt around the answer! Leaving him for Mrs. Norris was sounding like a better and better idea by the minute.
“’A variety of issues’? That’s bullshit and you know it. Why can’t you answer the damn question?! Get specific about these ‘issues’ or I’ll let Ron pound you for that crack involving his mum.” I fixed him with the most demanding stare I could muster and waited for his reply.
**********Draco\'s POV**********
\"It’s not bullshit as you eloquently put it. But I have no guarantees that you’ll still untie me. I\'ll tell you were I stand on one of the issues I wanted to discuss with you. The was with Voldemort... On the mantel besides my wand is a letter to Dumbledore. Stating deflection to the ‘side of light’ as it’s been dubbed, all the information I have, as well as a request for sanctuary.” I waited while he read the letter. His eyebrows nearly disappearing into his hairline, he’d raised them so high. “That\'s actually a copy of the letter. I’ve already been granted sanctuary here at Hogwarts.”
**********Harry\'s POV**********
arefarefully put the letter back on the mantel and stared into the fire. I expected raining fire and brimstone. Surely the world was ending. The apocalypse was upon us. Draco Malfoy joining the side of all that was good and pure. Or as he had once said, ‘the losing side.’ Next thing, Snape would be handing out sweets and offering to adopt me. The world was over and death should be arriving shortly.
However, before I died there was one thing I wanted to know. Without looking at him, I pointed my wand at Malfoy and released him. Still staring at the fire, I asked, “Why?”
**********Draco\'s POV**********
I slowly got to my feet and flexed my leg\'s a bit. I think that the sickening crunch that my knees made when the popped made Potter wince. I lowered myself into a chair facing the fire. After taking a deep breath, I answered his question... \" Why? Because of you. Why else do you think I\'d have done it?\"
**********Harry\'s POV**********
\"Because of me? You know, morality isn’t contagious. I didn’t infect you.\" I paused and tried to gather my thoughts. \"Malfoy, this doesn’t make sense. If you’re planning some devious bit of trickery, let’s just get on with it so I can get out of here.\"
**********Draco\'s POV**********
\"Fine. You want to know what I mean? You want to know why you\'re the reason? I\'ll tell you.\" I got up from the chair and crossed the room to stand directly in front of him, invading his personal space. I knew he wouldn\'t back down, because of me getting in my face. \"Rather... I think I\'ll show you...\" And with that I leaned in farther, and I kissed him.
