Love potions

Just at that moment a thought came over Harry that made him pull away, and he spit out what he had caught of the first blast.
“I can’t do this anymore!” He said sadly with a look of disbelief on his face.
“What!” asked Malfoy disgruntled.
“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have even started”
Harry sat down and Malfoy bent down to pick up his clothes off of the floor. Malfoy, steadily catching his breathe in recovery of recent events.
Still, and looking at the floor he says “But… I haven’t leaned my lesson yet.”
“I know that you’re a bad, bad boy and you deserve a good spanking…” Harry looked back into the game and Malfoy looked excited about this, but… no, there was something holding Harry back.
“Why … why won’t you keep going?” Malfoy again questioned, disappointed, “What’s wrong? Don’t you love me?”
Draco was beginning to look despondent. Harry didn’t know what to say. How could he tell Draco that it was lust, not love?
“No” Harry said honestly also looking rather sad. He didn’t want to hurt Draco.
“What???” Draco said desperately, a tear running down his cheek. “Why … why not?”
“There’s someone else.”
Draco just stared at Harry blankly, not believing what his ears had just sent to his brain, which seemed to be malfunctioning. Someone else?
“I … I don’t understand,” Malfoy stuttered.
“What, Are You Daft??? Its Not You I Want,” impatiently yelled Harry “… I’m sorry!!!”
Malfoy was now completely in tears.
“Who?” Was all he could let out!
“Don’t worry about that!” said Harry now impatient with Draco’s stupidity. He thought it would be obvious. All of those late night rendezvous to the kitchens.
“Please!” Draco was at Harry’s ankles.
“Fine!” said Harry shacking Draco off, “It’s, its…Dobby!”
There was a dead silence. You could here a pin drop, if one ever dared to break the silence.
There was mere confusion on Draco’s face at the moment, thinking over what he had just heard, and thought for a second, who was Dobby, It wasn’t anyone in their… No it couldn’t be!!!
“Ha, you’ve got to be kidding me, you’re in love with the HOUSE ELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Yes I’m sorry to say, but I am!” Harry just stared at his feet.
“WHY, HUH, WHY NOT ME!!!!!!! DOBBY’S JUST A!!!” Draco floods “Just a… a… hou- hou- house- house-elf!!!!” Draco falls down kneeling with robes in his clutching fists. Crying furiously into his robes, so much that they were soaked with tears.
Harry couldn’t bare the sight of this.
“I’m sorry Draco, I can’t … you never shown me any emotion, except this, you pick on my friends and I… I mean, you deny your feelings for me… I can’t… I’m sorry I … I have to go.”
Harry couldn’t look at Draco anymore the sight just depressed him. So he left into the deserted hallway, with his head hung low. Thinking about what he had just done… What he had just said. Harry never voiced that out loud. Oh whom would Malfoy tell? Seeing as he would never admit to anyone what he had done with Harry, because Malfoy wouldn’t tell anyone that he loved Harry, at least that is what Harry thinks.
Harry knew what he had to do.

“Dobby, can I speak to you?”
“Yes, master Harry, Dobby can speak.”
“Dobby I have to tell you something, before anyone else does.”
“Yes, Harry Potter tell me, sir.”
“Okay, Dobby I am in love with you!”
Dobby sat there looking at Harry with a look of confusion on his face. This was all Harry needed, to confirm Dobby’s thoughts.
So he ran out of the room crying, thinking to himself “Why, why does Dobby not love me?”
Harry went to his favorite spot to cry. This spot was behind a statue of Sir Ghastly the Monstrous. But right before he could reach it Harry saw the very last person he wanted to see.
“Well, well, well, Mister Potter how lovely to see you, Ahhh, and in such a mood are we? What Mister Potter, are we crying over Mumsywumsy and Dadsywadsy again, huh are we? What about your friends, huh, where are they? Why… are you crying over Elves rights?” Snape said with a smirk.
This comment hit Harry particularly hard. So Harry’s eye’s filled with emotion, and he violently pushed Snape away from him so hard that he slid halfway down the Hallway.
With this Harry ran all the way back to the common room. Draco was gone (not that Harry cared at the moment) but in the common room were Hermione, and Ron. When Harry got inside there was a flash of smoke upon the table.
Hermione jumped up. “ Why Harry, trying to peek at your…” Just then she saw that Harry was red, and there were tears welled in his eyes.
Harry stood and looked at them he wondered if he should tell them. Then at the thought of what happened he tried to hold back on exploding in front of them. As he tried to smile the tears just flowed.
As he was crying Hermione tried to comfort him. “ Oh, sweetie what happened? Are you alright?”
“Was it Draco?” Ron added
“Draco, Draco Malfoy could never match up to the Loving wondrous beauty that is……….
Hmmmmmmmmmmmm huhuh” Wailed Harry
“That is………” Hermione and Ron yelled in unison.
“Dobby” Harry sobbed
“Dobby house elf dobby!” Ron expressed amazement.
Hermione grimaced at Ron then turned in a matter-of-fact kind of way towards Harry, “What happened with Dobby?”
Harry told them what had happened, by then Hermione was filled with ideas. She thought about what Harry was saying and thought to her-self.
“ Of course he looked at you dumfounded,” Hermione explained.
Harry and Ron stared at her wondering just what exactly she was talking about… Of course.
“Silly boy’s don’t you see, Dobby is a house elf they don’t know about thing’s like love.”
Harry still couldn’t understand, “Hermione, are you trying to tell me that, Dobby didn’t tell me he loved me too was because he doesn’t know what love is? I mean I guess that makes sense.”
“Yeah, cause all they do is cook, clean, and all that stuff they really don’t have time to think about love, and all that stuff.” Ron finished Harry’s sentence for him.
“See Harry he couldn’t respond to you because he doesn’t know the feeling.” matter-of-factly said Hermione
“Yeah, yeah, so you’ll have to show him how you feel! You’ll have to show him what love is.” Added Ron
