Chapter Twenty-One (part b)

chapter Twenty-one (second part - wouldn't fit all in one chapter)

The next night Devlin invited Severus and Draco to their movie night. Harry sat beside Devlin, comforted by the arm that rested at the back of the couch behind him. Severus sat at the other side of him, while Draco made himself comfortable in the love seat. The movie that night was ‘Die Hard.’

About midway through the movie Severus had looked up to see Harry looking at him, kind of smirking to himself. “What?” Severus asked.

“You know Sev, that Alan guy looks a bit like you,” Harry said grinning as he leaned over to look at Severus more.

“Prat,” Severus smirked, pushing Harry back. “Watch the movie.”

“You know .... Harry’s right Sev,” Draco said looking closer to his godfather. “He could be your twin.”

“Isn’t it true that everyone has someone that looks like them somewhere...an identical twin?” Devlin added mischievously, who got a warning glare from Severus at his input in this conversation.

“Merlin help us if there are more of you three out there,” Severus sighed. “Now, kindly shut your traps so we can finish watching the movie.”

Harry caught Draco smiling at him, then gave a slight smile in return. At the beginning of the night, Harry had felt a little apprehensive and shaky at the sight of Draco, but as the night wore on he slowly got a bit more comfortable in the same room with him again.



The following night Draco lounged back on the corner of the couch, with Harry snuggled up to Devlin at the other end. Sirius had joined them that night and sat on the love seat with Severus. The movie that night was the first ‘Austin Powers’ movie, where they all laughed and joked about some of the movie dialogue.

Draco slowly moved closer to Harry as they talked during the movie. He so wanted to pull Harry into his arms and tell him everything would be okay, to kiss the fear away that would flash in the Gryffindor’s eyes every once and awhile, but he held back and kept his distance. He wanted Harry to make the first move, not to push him into something he wasn’t ready for yet.


The third night Harry sat between Devlin and Draco again, his back leaning against Devlin’s shoulder. The movie that night was ‘Matrix’.

Harry kept gazing over to Draco, thinking what would happen if Draco tried to kiss him. He remembered their kisses, remembered the way the blonde would moan when you nibbled on a certain spot of his neck. As he gazed longingly at Draco, he slowly slid his feet closer to him.

Draco felt Harry’s gaze on him and tried not to look back at him too often. The few times he did look it was to see Devlin’s arm wrapped protectively over the one shoulder, his hand resting at Harry’s side. Inwardly he knew that Devlin was helping Harry.... helping him to deal with things, but he couldn’t help the possessive, jealous feelings he was going through, he wanted to be the one Harry snuggled against.

He felt the couch shift beside him as Harry’s sock clad feet came closer to his thigh. He didn’t dare to reach out for them in case Harry rejected his touch. Harry had been slowly warming up to him, but still had not initiated any touching, so he held his breath to see what Harry would do next.

Harry took a deep, steadying breath, then slipped his toes under Draco’s thigh, slowly letting the held breath out as the anxiety slowly diminished. He saw Draco rub the top of his thigh nervously, then him reaching for his foot to draw it back.... unsure. He took one foot from under Draco’s thigh, then nudged his toes under Draco’s hand.

Draco looked at Harry uncertainly, looking down at Harry’s foot, then back to him. At Harry’s hesitant nod, Draco gave a nervous smile, then loosely grasped Harry’s foot in his hand, his thumb caressing Harry’s foot carefully and tenderly. He knew it wasn’t much, but he felt it was a start.

Harry’s hesitant move was not lost on the other’s in the room. Devlin tightened his hold on Harry in reassurance as he felt Harry’s body shaking a bit at the first touch. “He won’t hurt you Jade,” Devlin whispered by Harry’s ear.

At the end of the movie, Harry reluctantly pulled his foot away and sat up. Sirius and Severus left almost straight away to have some time to themselves, leaving Harry, Devlin, and Draco alone.

Devlin gathered some empty glasses and looked at Harry and Draco. “I’ll just put these away,” he said nudging Harry’s shoulder.

“I should probably go too,” Draco said giving a small grin. “I still need to do that research for that essay you assigned us on shielding charms.”

Harry nodded in response, then watched as he turned to go. “Wait,” he called out right before Draco got to the door.

Draco turned around. “Yes?” he asked, a faint glimmer of hope in his eyes.

“Um...thanks for coming tonight..and last night too,” Harry said nervously.

“Is it helping Harry?” Draco asked taking a step closer. “Are you still afraid for me to touch you?”

Harry gave a small smile. “It is getting better. Will you come again tomorrow night?” he asked hopefully.

“If you want me to Harry,” Draco grinned.

“Yes. I do,” Harry gave a small smile. “Thank you for not rushing me with this.”

“I’ll give you all the time you need Harry,” Draco replied. “Goodnight Jade.” He then left hurriedly so he wouldn’t be tempted to give Harry a proper goodnight kiss.

Harry stood there looking at the closed door, wishing that he gave into his urges and kissed the Slytherin senseless, like he had wanted to all night. ‘There’s always tomorrow,’ he thought happily to himself as he went to get ready for bed.


Authors Note: I know I may or may not recieve reviews on how fast Harry is getting over his trauma, but I am wanted to move the story along. I have never been through anything like that, and I do realize that sometimes it takes years to get over something like that in the 'real' world. So just kind of go with it and enjoy the story. Special thanks to everyone who had reviews so far....I usually (when I can get on this blasted site), give thanks on the separate chapter (after chapter two).
