Chapter 24 - A Debt Paid

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Slowly, Harry pulled away from the temptation in front of him. \"Turn around,\" he whispered and watched as Draco did as he asked, settling his hands on the blonde\'s waist. Harry nudged him forward a few steps so that the couple in the mirror were an arm\'s-length away.

\"Do you have any idea how beautiful you are?\" Harry whispered as his hands slid under the hem of his boyfriend\'s t-shirt, teasing the skin beneath with gentle caresses.

Silver lust-filled eyes stared at their reflection and watched as Harry slowly lifted the shirt, revealing a pale, toned stomach and chest. The image disappeared for a few seconds as the material was pulled over his head and then reappeared as the item was tossed aside.

Harry\'s dark hands roamed across his torso in a nondescript pattern, the contrast between light and dark erotic, Draco thought. His body tensed as he felt warm lips nuzzling his neck and watched as fingers trailed over identical dusky disks, eliciting a gasp from the blonde.

\"Your body is so sensitive,\" Harry\'s breath caressed the silky skin between neck and shoulder. \"I love the way you respond to my touch,\" he said and then watched his lover\'s eyes close as he pinched the twin buds between thumb and forefinger, a groan slipping between pink lips.

If Draco thought he was hard before, he was wrong. He couldn\'t be sure which was throbbing more - his cock or his heart. This whole seduction scene was wreaking havoc on his senses. Never before had he participated in anything like this. With others, there was no forethought given, just a hurried tumble followed by an even quicker exit. But this . this would be something he was sure to remember years from now; the first time someone had seduced him. Not that Harry needed to go through all of this trouble, mind you, because Merlin knows that if Harry had said to bend over, Draco would have gladly dropped trou and offered his ass up to his dark-haired lover. His train of thought was quickly derailed as he felt Harry\'s lips close around the lobe of his right ear, tugging gently.

\"Merlin,\" Draco breathed. \"Do you have any idea what you\'re doing to me?\" he asked.

Harry\'s hands slid down the slope of the alabaster stomach and stopped at the waist of Draco\'s denim jeans. \"Mmmhmm,\" Harry answered as he deftly unfastened the five buttons, his hands brushing over the hardness contained within Draco\'s boxers. \"I have a pretty good idea,\" he said as he palmed Draco through the soft cotton.

Draco\'s pale hands covered Harry\'s, their fingers linked together, eyes never wavering from the couple in the mirror. Slowly, Draco redirected their hands so they were now at the waist of his jeans and after hooking his thumbs around the elastic of his shorts, pushed downwards, both articles of clothing pooling around slim ankles. Carefully, he stepped out of his pants and nudged them aside. When he met Harry\'s gaze in the mirror again, he groaned at the desire that was directed his way. Draco felt as if his body had caught fire from the heated look he was receiving.

Skilled hands were now roving across every accessible inch of flesh, chest, hips, moving down the outside of long, lean legs, and then back up the inside of muscled thighs. Draco trembled as Harry\'s fingers inched higher and higher, his thumbs lightly brushing the blonde\'s cock.

Draco gasped and grabbed Harry\'s hands to halt their teasing. \"Harry, please . I can\'t take much more of this,\" he nearly sobbed. He knew that he was close to his release, and it was far too early in the game for him to lose control.

But Harry had other ideas.

\"Then come for me,\" Harry whispered and grasped the heated organ in his hand. \"We have all night,\" he said as he slowly stroked his lover. Draco\'s eyes slid shut as nimble fingers gathered the clear liquid and spread it over the head, a thumb teasing.

\"Open your eyes, Draco,\" the raven-haired wizard commanded. \"Watch us.\"

Slowly the blonde opened his eyes and surveyed the scene before him, a soft whimper escaping between swollen lips. Draco raised his right arm and wrapped it around Harry\'s neck, using it for leverage as pumped himself into Harry\'s fist. Never before had he seen something so risqué, so indecent. His eyes lingered on the reflection of Harry\'s hand stroking him, and slowly raised them to Harry\'s own. Twin pools of need shining from them were more than he could stand. Before he realized it, his orgasm ripped through his body, his seed covering Harry\'s hand as well as the mirror in front of them.

Draco slumped against Harry, thankful for the hard body behind him and the arm that was wrapped around his waist. If not for that fact, he would be sitting on a cold floor right about now. \"Harry . gods . that was .\" Draco started, but was silenced as he found his body quickly spun around and pinned to the door, his mouth being invaded by Harry\'s tongue. The kiss was torrid at first, and then slowed to convey a promise of things to come. Merlin, if the rest of the night was as intense as these past few minutes, Draco wasn\'t sure that he would survive. Harry grinned against kiss-swollen lips as he felt hands at his waist and then his sleep-pants were falling down his legs, a deft hand tugging at his own hardness now. \"Your turn, love. Your turn to come for me,\" Draco declared before capturing Harry\'s mouth again, his elegant fingers tugging and twisting, knowing exactly how his lover liked to be stroked.

Harry\'s hands were now on the wall, one on each side of Draco\'s head, as he pumped himself into Draco\'s hand. It wasn\'t long before he was shouting as his release swept through his body, his seed splashing between them and coating their stomachs. His head dropped to the crook between his lover\'s neck and shoulder as he fought to calm his erratic breathing.

\"So good, Draco,\" he breathed. \"Always so good with you,\" he said as he licked a path up the pale neck and placed a kiss behind Draco\'s ear. He stepped out of his sleep-pants and took Draco by the hand. \"Come with me,\" he said as he led them into the bathroom.

Draco\'s gray eyes widened as he found more candles hovering overhead.

\"Going all out, aren\'t you?\" he teased as Harry reached into the shower and turned on the taps, the sculpted muscles of his back stretching under tawny skin.

\"Is it too much?\" Harry asked as he turned back to his lover, wondering if he went too far with everything. \"Because I can get rid of it if you\'d like me to,\" he said as he raised his hand, preparing to magic it all away.

Draco grabbed at him. \"Don\'t you dare, Harry,\" he said as he pulled Harry\'s arm back to his side. \"Don\'t change a thing,\" he said as he leaned in and claimed a kiss from his blushing boyfriend. \"It was just a surprise, that\'s all. I\'ve never been properly seduced.\"

Harry laughed a bit. \"First time for me too, if you must know,\" he said before stepping into the shower with Draco following. \"I remember Hermione saying, or rather, hinting that if anyone ever wanted to seduce her they should use lots of candles and silk sheets. I had hoped it would work on you as well,\" he said as they stood together under the warm spray of water, Draco searching for a cloth and soap.

\"Worked like a charm,\" Draco commented as he worked up a sufficient lather and then proceeded to run it all over Harry\'s toned body. \"But you really didn\'t have to go through all of this just to shag me. All you had to do was ask,\" he said as he found a particularly sensitive spot on Harry\'s ribcage, smiling when his lover giggled.

\"I should have known,\" Harry said as he leaned back against the shower wall and closed his eyes, allowing Draco free rein over his body. He concentrated on the texture of the cloth as it caressed his skin, felt as long fingers slid from the cloth to his skin, the offending material falling to the floor. Harry sighed in relief.

\"Better?\" Draco asked as his hands mapped out the dips and hollows of Harry\'s body, soapy fingers teasing nipples into twin peaks, moving lower to circle and tease a belly-button.

Harry nodded in affirmation. \"Much,\" he whispered as the hands on his body slid around to his back, Draco\'s own body now flush against his. He smiled as he felt the hardness pressing against him, his own stirring again. The soapy hands teased his back, trailing up and down his spine, dipping into the valley between his cheeks. It was when a questing finger teased his entrance that Harry finally moved.

\"Oh no you don\'t,\" Harry warned as he slid from his lover\'s embrace. \"This is my party, remember?\" he asked as he reversed their positions and grabbed the cloth from the floor, quickly soaping it and then laying it across the pale chest in front of him. \"One of these days you can do whatever you want to me, but not tonight,\" he said as he slowly and efficiently washed the blonde, paying special attention to certain parts of his anatomy.

Draco gasped as he found himself quickly turned around, his chest pressed into the cold tile. Harry molded himself against Draco\'s back, his hardness nestled between two perfect globes. Hot, open-mouthed kisses covered Draco\'s right shoulder as Harry playfully thrust against the body before him.

\"Take me, Harry,\" Draco whispered as he pushed back against him.

\"Where to, love?\" he asked as he started a slow rocking rhythm, his cock sliding sensuously against his lover.

\"Here, now,\" he begged.

Harry smiled against alabaster skin. \"Not yet, but soon,\" he teased.

\"Harrrryyyyy,\" Draco implored.

\"Draaaaacoooooo,\" Harry teased.

\"You are, without a doubt, the most infuriating wizard I have ever known,\" Draco commented and then let out a yelp as fingers closed around his nipples and squeezed while teeth grazed his neck. Against Draco\'s better judgment, he whimpered.

\"You were saying?\" Harry asked as he let his hands slowly trail down the sculpted stomach to rest on Draco\'s hips.

\"Harry, please?\" he begged. \"I need you.\"

A tan hand moved from Draco\'s hip to stroke his lover. \"I know. But not yet,\" he teased as he continued to fondle the pulsing flesh. Draco\'s hips automatically thrust forward, but Harry held him still. \"No, Draco. The next time you come will be from me fucking you, my cock so deep in your arse that you won\'t know which way is up,\" he breathed against the shell of Draco\'s ear.

Slowly he removed his hand from the hardened flesh and left a trail of kisses down Draco\'s back.

He smiled as fingers parted the milky-white globes and his tongue teased his lover\'s entrance. The musky smell of Draco was intoxicating, spurring Harry on. His tongue lapped at the tight ring of muscle, advancing and retreating, mimicking what was yet to come.

\"Fuck,\" Draco hissed, his body screaming as Harry\'s tongue danced over the puckered skin.

Harry gave the darkened flesh one last swipe and slowly reached for the soap. After slicking his fingers, he slowly stood and pressed his body against Draco\'s again, biting his neck as he slid a finger into the hot cavern.

Draco groaned into the steam-filled room, his head falling forward to rest against the slick tiles as Harry\'s finger penetrated him for the first time.

\"Like that?\" Harry asked as he slowly thrust the digit into the welcoming heat.

\"Gods, yes,\" Draco moaned. His cock throbbed for release and it was everything he could do to not reach down and take hold of himself. As painful as it was right now, he knew that Harry was right. The next time he came, Harry would be inside of him. \"More,\" he whispered. \"Give me more, Harry,\" he said as his teeth worried his lower lip. He felt another finger enter him, slowly stretching his passage. He gasped as Harry stroked his prostate, flames of desire coursing throughout his body now, threatening to burn him from the inside out.

\"One more?\" Harry asked and received a nod from his lover. He slowly added a third digit and rotated his wrist, stretching the passage even more. Draco\'s body was shaking with desire as his need for release jumped another notch.

\"Now, Harry,\" Draco commanded. \"Take me now. Merlin, I can\'t wait,\" he sobbed against the tiles.

Harry would like nothing more than to bury himself inside of his lover right then, but the shower was not where he wanted to do it. He placed a kiss on Draco\'s neck as his fingers slid from the shaking body. \"Then come with me,\" he said as he quickly turned off the taps and stepped from the shower. Grabbing a towel, he quickly dried Draco\'s body and then his own, and with that task done, he took his lover\'s hand in his and led him back into the bedroom.

Draco crawled onto the bed and grabbed a pillow, shoving it under his chest and then stretched his lithe frame out on top of the duvet. His silver eyes gleamed as he looked over his shoulder to find Harry standing at the end of the bed, staring at him.

\"Is this okay?\" the blonde asked, his lips quirked in a sexy grin.

It took a few moments for Harry to find his voice. The perfect body lying before him had rendered him speechless. His eyes devoured every part that he could see, from the slim ankles all the way up to Draco\'s platinum locks. There was nothing that Harry could find fault with although there was still one place he had not ventured yet, and he was sure that he would find nothing lacking there either.

\"Perfect,\" Harry whispered as he slid onto the bed and draped his body across Draco\'s back, capturing his lips in another mind-numbing kiss. His left hand slid into the blonde locks as his right hand roamed freely between Draco\'s right hip and knee. Harry paused a moment before rolling Draco partially onto his left side and then pushed his lover\'s right knee forward, his own knee following.

Draco groaned into their open mouths when he felt Harry\'s cock slide between his buttocks and immediately moved back against him in an attempt to hurry things along. He wasn\'t going to last much longer.

Harry broke their kiss long enough to whisper \"Lubricus\" and then pulled back to watch his cock disappear into his lover\'s body. Inch by agonizing inch he slid into the tightness that he had imagined so many times. He decided then and there that people who say fantasy is always better than reality obviously do not know what they are talking about because this - HIS reality - was so much better than his fantasy.

A gasp broke the silence and Harry\'s eyes flew to Draco\'s face.

\"Draco?\" he asked as he stilled his movement. \"Are you okay?\"

Silver eyes caught and held emerald ones as Draco smiled and slowly pushed his hips back towards Harry, stopping only when he could go no further. \"I am now,\" he said as he pulled Harry\'s lips back to his.

Harry\'s left arm slid under Draco and curled around his chest while his right hand rested on Draco\'s hip as he started to move in slow, lazy strokes. Long minutes passed and the only sounds that could be heard were soft sighs, gasps of pleasure, and whispered words of encouragement.

Draco\'s long fingers dug into Harry\'s thigh as the thick cock brushed the sensitive spot deep inside the blonde. \"Yessssss,\" Draco hissed as he arched his back, ensuring that Harry hit the same spot over and over.

\"Like that?\" Harry asked as he drove back into the pliant body before him.

\"Oh Merlin, Harry. You have no idea,\" he murmured as his hand covered the arm that was wrapped around him.

Harry pressed his face between Draco\'s shoulder blades. \"I think I might,\" he said as he continued to pump rhythmically into his boyfriend. \"Because if it\'s anywhere close to what I\'m feeling right now,\" he said as he tried to find the right words to tell Draco just how wonderful it felt finally being inside of him, finally touching this last place, branding him as his own. \"Fuck,\" was all he could think of. Not eloquent by any means, but Draco seemed to understand as he nodded.

\"Finally,\" he said as he wrapped his hand around Harry\'s thigh and held him close.

\"Yes, finally,\" Harry breathed against the pale skin of Draco\'s back. His tawny hand left Draco\'s hip and settled on his stomach, Harry\'s fingers caressing the muscles that contracted and released as Draco moved in counterpoint to his thrusts. \"Why haven\'t we done this before?\" he asked, more to himself than anything. He smiled when he heard Draco\'s answer.

\"Because we\'re idiots.\"

Harry kissed Draco\'s shoulder. \"We were, but no longer,\" he said as he slowly increased the tempo of their joining. Their bodies broke out in a light sheen of sweat and their breathing quickened with the pace that Harry had set. Both were surprised that they had lasted this long but their earlier activities in front of the mirror helped take the edge off of things so they could enjoy this. It wasn\'t a marathon bout of sex, by any means, but at least it wasn\'t over as soon as it started.

A few minutes later Harry felt Draco\'s fingers link with his and then their joined hands were moving down, tan fingers raking through the nest of blonde curls.

\"Harrrrryyyyyyy,\" Draco breathed as their hands stroked the weeping flesh. \"Yes ... Gods . need to ..please ..need you ..\" he babbled.

As soon as the words were out of Draco\'s mouth, Harry\'s hips moved faster, bringing them both closer to the edge. His body felt as if he were on fire and knew that his own release wasn\'t far off; he just wanted Draco to come first. His wish was immediately granted.

\"Oh fuck .. yesssss . Harrryyyy . gonna ... AAAAHHHHHHH!\" Draco screamed into the night as his orgasm hit him like a runaway freight train. Wave after wave of ecstasy rolled through his body as his cock pulsed in their joined hands, strands of pearlescent liquid jetting across black sheets.

Harry moaned Draco\'s name as his lover\'s body contracted around Harry\'s cock and pulled his own orgasm from him, his seed filling the body before him. The brunette lay unmoving, panting heavily against the sweat-covered back, his cock still pulsing inside his lover.

It was several minutes before either could speak. Until then, gentle hands soothed, kisses bestowed where they could be, contented sighs issued. When Harry finally regained a portion of his senses, he slowly withdrew from Draco, earning a gasp from his lover.

\"Sorry,\" Harry murmured against the alabaster neck and placed a gentle kiss there in an attempt to soothe the hurt he had caused his lover.

Draco turned so that he was lying on his back, looking up at Harry. \"No, it wasn\'t that. I just didn\'t want you to leave me,\" he said as long, tapered fingers traced over his lips.

Passion-clouded eyes looked down at his lover. \"Oh, then I really am sorry. I just thought .\"

A finger placed across red lips halted his words. \"\'S okay, Harry. I like it when you\'re inside of me, even after,\" Draco said as he moved his fingers to rake through the sweat-soaked raven locks. His hand cradled the back of Harry\'s head. \"Thank you,\" he said shyly.

Harry face lit up with a goofy grin. \"I think that\'s my line.\"

\"No, I think your line is \'I guess it\'s clean-up time since I topped\',\" Draco teased.

The dark-haired wizard laughed. \"See, I told you that you\'re nothing but a lazy-arsed git. You\'ll bottom so you don\'t have to do anything,\" he said and with a wave of his hand, everything was clean again.

\"Ahhh, much better,\" Draco said as he stretched himself out on Harry\'s bed. \"But you\'re wrong about the bottom part. I happen to like giving just as much as receiving.\"

Harry settled himself against Draco\'s right side, his head propped up in his hand. \"I know. I\'ve seen you, remember?\"

Draco\'s eyes were alight with laughter. \"Oh yes, the voyeuristic Harry Potter,\" he teased.

\"It was hot as hell, Draco, seeing you like that with someone,\" Harry admitted. \"That one memory kept me company many, many times.\"

\"And now?\" Draco asked as he reached out linked their fingers together and settled their hands on his chest.

\"Now I\'ve got the real thing and there\'s no comparing the two,\" Harry said as he leaned down and captured Draco\'s lips with his own; long, lingering kisses being shared between them.

When Harry pulled away, he lay beside Draco and closed his eyes. \"Consider your debt paid in full,\" he said with a smile.

\"I think we need to make wagers more often if this is one of the possible outcomes,\" Draco said as he rested his head on his lover\'s chest, listening to the steady beat of Harry\'s heart and the rumble of his laughter.

\"Fine by me,\" Harry said with a soft chuckle. \"I\'ll use any excuse to get in your trousers now.\"

\"No need, love. You want me, I\'m yours,\" Draco stated and sealed the declaration with a kiss to Harry\'s neck. \"At some point I\'m sure I\'ll want to do the cleaning, but for now, I\'m content with this,\" he said with a sigh.

Harry kissed Draco\'s forehead. \"Draco . there\'s something I need to tell you. And I don\'t want you to take it the wrong way. Okay?\"

\"That all depends on what it is you need to tell me. If you tell me that I\'m a horrible lover or that you made a mistake with all of this, then I think I have a right to be a bit put-out,\" Draco said, not hiding the worry in his voice.

Harry rolled to the side and propped himself up on his arm. \"No, no, it\'s nothing like that. It has more to do with the other thing, the top and bottom part of our relationship. I\'ve only bottomed for one other person, and I wasn\'t all that comfortable with it. I mean, it was great but at the same time a bit scary because you\'re giving up control of the situation.\"

\"It\'s okay, Harry. I don\'t have a problem with this. You\'ve already said I\'m lazy, so I\'ll just be lazy until you tell me you\'re ready to be lazy,\" the blonde assured his lover.

Harry lifted their joined hands to his lips and kissed each of Draco\'s curled fingers. \"Thank you. I wasn\'t sure how you would take it.\"

Draco smiled. \"I think I took it rather well, don\'t you?\" he asked with a wink.

\"Yes, you acted as if you might have previous experience in that position,\" Harry teased.

\"I have a confession,\" Draco said. \"I\'ve only bottomed for one other person besides you. And I understand the control issue. You can only do that when you feel comfortable enough to let go and trust that person to take care of you.\"

Harry knew immediately of whom Draco was speaking. \"Blaise.\"

Draco nodded.

\"Draco, it\'s not that I don\'t trust you,\" Harry began. \"It\'s just hard for me to give up control to someone after everything I\'ve been through.\"

Now it was Draco\'s turn to lift their hands to his lips. \"I said I understand, and I do. I don\'t think any less of you because of that, Harry. Malfoy might have, but I don\'t.\"

\"Thank you,\" Harry said with sincerity as he lay back down. \"You don\'t know how much that means to me.\"

\"For what it\'s worth, I think what we have between us far outweighs what I had with Blaise,\" Draco admitted. \"And I\'m not saying that just so you\'ll give in. I mean it.\"

\"What happened, Draco? Between you two?\"

Draco rolled over to his stomach and propped his chin in his hands. \"It\'s complicated,\" he started. \"At the beginning it was just shagging, he was just a fuck-buddy. We needed it and we did it. Simple. And then things changed. Usually when we were finished, he\'d go back to his bed, or I would go back to my own, never staying together afterwards. As silly as it seems, sleeping with someone, for me at least, was a big deal. But then one night we just stopped going back to our own bed. Waking up with someone in your arms is a great thing, but something that I wanted to save for someone I was in a relationship with.\"

Harry nodded because he felt the same way. Waking up with Draco in his arms, or vice-versa, was a wonderful thing. For Harry, he felt like he belonged somewhere.

Draco continued. \"But somewhere in the middle of it all, that\'s what it became, a relationship, in a strange sort of way. But it was never in front of everyone, just with our house. Those in Slytherin knew that we were together, but when he wanted to make it known to everyone outside of our house, that I was his, that we were together, I told him that I couldn\'t do it, I wouldn\'t allow it. Words were said that we both regretted later . I was embarrassed to be seen with him; he was good enough to shag in private but I didn\'t want anyone else knowing; things like that. None if them were true though. Blaise is a great guy and anyone who lands him will be one lucky guy, or girl.\"

Harry knew first-hand what kind of person Blaise was since it was Harry whom Blaise had turned to in an attempt to either forget or get back at Draco. Maybe it was a bit of both, Harry thought. During their time spent together, Harry found that Blaise was a very caring person, and would do anything to make the person he was with happy, and that he genuinely cared for Draco.

\"One night while we were lying in bed, he gave me an ultimatum - come out or we were over,\" Draco admitted, his voice a bit softer than before. \"My temper got the best of me and I kicked him out . out of my bed and out of my close circle of friends.\"

Harry summed it up in three words. \"You were scared.\"

Draco nodded.

\"Did you love him, Draco?\" Harry asked, not sure why he wanted to know, but asking just the same.

\"Love never entered into the equation. At least it hadn\'t at that point. I cared for him, a great deal in fact, and maybe it would have been more if Malfoy hadn\'t done what he did. I was being selfish. I tossed him aside and didn\'t give it a second thought. But that\'s how Malfoy worked. He used people and when he was finished, he tossed them out like they were nothing. Blaise deserved more than that.\"

\"I agree,\" Harry said.

Draco nodded. \"I realize that now. Too bad someone didn\'t point that out to me sooner. I would still have him for a friend.\"

\"Do you still care about him, Draco?\"

\"I\'m not sure,\" he answered with a sigh. \"I haven\'t really thought about it. I guess in some small way I still do, but time has passed and things have changed. I\'ve changed.\"

Harry smiled. \"Yes, you have. And I like you much better now,\" he said as he slid his fingers through the blonde hair.

\"Well I should bloody hope so. I hoped you didn\'t go around shagging guys just for sport,\" Draco teased as he turned and kissed Harry\'s wrist.

\"No, I thought that was your game, not mine. I told you that I had only been with two guys before, and that Blaise was one of them,\" Harry said. \"Why did you say that what we have is better than what you had with Blaise?\"

Draco shook his head. \"Harry, Harry, Harry. Must I spell it out for you?\"

Harry laughed. \"I guess so since I just asked the question.\"

\"I\'m not ashamed to be seen with you or that everyone knows that we\'re together,\" Draco stated.

\"That may be true here, but what if we were back at Hogwarts? Would we be sneaking around, shagging whenever and wherever we could manage? Or would we be like we are here - out in the open for everyone to see?\" Harry asked.

\"If we were back at Hogwarts we\'d still be trying to kill each other. Old habits die hard and all that,\" Draco said and then leaned over and kissed Harry\'s cheek. \"But we\'re not at Hogwarts, we\'re at Hamilton, an ocean away from all of that, and we\'re together.\"

\"In every sense of the word now,\" Harry said with a grin.

\"For you, maybe. I still have one last obstacle to surmount and then I\'ll be able to say the same thing. And before you ask, yes, I meant to say that,\" the blonde teased.

Harry sighed. \"One of these days, Draco. I promise. When the time is right, you\'ll know.\"

\"Yes, I can see it now . another huge seduction scene with you spread eagle on this sumptuous bed and the candles spelling out TAKE ME DRACO.\"

\"Not a bad idea,\" Harry said with a laugh. \"I\'ll have to remember that one.\"

Draco looked around the room again, taking in everything. \"Merlin, I still can\'t believe you did all of this. I guess Harry Potter is a closet romantic.\"

Harry nodded. \"Yes, I guess he is. Just don\'t let anyone know, especially Hermione, because I\'ll never hear the end of it,\" the brunette said.

\"I think I\'ll owl a note over to her and Weasley, telling them in graphic detail exactly how you attempted to seduce me,\" Draco teased.

\"Attempted?\" Harry asked. \"Attempted implies that the plan failed and from where I\'m laying, I would say that it was a one-hundred percent success.\"

\"Only because we had a bet and since I lost, I couldn\'t deny you want you wanted,\" he tossed back.

Harry snorted. \"Oh please, Draco. You can\'t lie there and tell me that we wouldn\'t have ended up in bed together at some point of our relationship. You\'re just arsed because I called you on it first.\"

Draco sat up and tried to look offended, but Harry knew he was playing. \"Yes, well, my Slytherin wiles must be slipping since I\'ve been here in America if you managed to get me first.\"

\"Are you sorry?\" Harry asked as he tugged on Draco\'s right arm, bringing the blonde back to him.

Mischievous silver eyes looked down at his lover. \"Of course,\" he said playfully. \"I\'m Draco Malfoy, Sex God of Slytherin. I should have fucked you first, not the other way around.\"

A grin played on Harry\'s lips. \"Is that so?\" he asked as his other hand worked its way into Draco\'s blonde mane. His previously semi-erect cock was quickly making itself known.

\"Of course,\" he said as he leaned into Harry\'s touch, his own cock stirring again.

\"So I guess we\'ll just forget what happened here not too long ago? Would that help to soothe Malfoy\'s wounded pride?\" Harry asked as his thumb caressed Draco\'s cheek.

\"I\'ve got a better idea how to soothe Malfoy\'s wounded pride,\" Draco said as he moved closer to Harry.

\"Why in Merlin\'s name would I want to help you with that? We\'re enemies, remember? Have been for six years running,\" the dark-haired wizard teased.

Draco smiled innocently- that is to say, as innocent as an evil Slytherin git could manage. \"Because I asked you to?\" he queried.

Harry grinned up at his boyfriend. \"What on earth could possibly persuade Malfoy to forget that he came in second to Harry Potter, yet again?\"

Draco brushed his cheek against Harry\'s as elegant fingers wrapped around Harry\'s cock, stroking gently. \"Fuck me again, Harry,\" he whispered as he pressed his own hardened flesh into Harry\'s hip. \"Fuck me and I\'ll make sure that Malfoy forgets everything.\"

Emerald eyes closed for a moment as Harry fought to regain his composure that those four little words threatened to break. Fuck - Me - Again - Harry. Four words that made Harry\'s heart beat frantically, made his cock jump involuntarily. He would love nothing more than to bury himself inside of that tight heat again, but he wouldn\'t give in to Draco just yet.

\"And what if I refuse?\" Harry asked as he tried to ignore the hand on his cock, the way it was twisting and tugging, working the flesh the way the blonde knew he liked.

\"If not, then he\'ll make your life a living hell,\" Draco said as he captured Harry\'s lobe between his teeth, giving it a gentle tug.

\"Ohhh, I\'m so scared,\" Harry teased as he slowly sat up, removing Draco\'s hand from his cock. Before Draco realized it, Harry had rolled him onto his back and had settled himself between his spread legs. \"I guess that takes us back to the first option,\" he said as he ran his hands down Draco\'s thighs, stopping at his knees and pushing the long limbs back towards Draco\'s body. \"What was that Draco?\"

The blonde looked into Harry\'s eyes and repeated the four words that felt as natural to him as breathing. \"Fuck me again, Harry,\" he said.

After a whispered spell, Harry pushed into his lover\'s heat for the second time that night, thrilled by the thought that Draco wanted this as much as he did. And Draco was right in his thinking earlier - that they were idiots for waiting this long. But now that he had had a taste of the blonde, he was sure his appetite would never been satisfied by anyone other than Draco.

Later, as they lay in a tangle of limbs wrapped in black silk sheets, Draco\'s head resting on Harry\'s shoulder, the pale hand covering his heart, Harry remembered something that his lover had mentioned earlier - that what they have together means more to him than what he had shared with Blaise. He had seen the hurt look on Draco\'s face as he told Harry the story and knew that Draco cared deeply for the other wizard. Harry\'s last thought before sleep claimed him was that if he weren\'t careful, his body wouldn\'t be the only thing that he gave to his lover. He didn\'t realize that his own hand covered Draco\'s on his chest.
